AN: IM SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG. Please don't kill me… I beg of ya'll…

So much school and drama has taken over my life lately that I havent had the time to type anything…

I really do apologize. I'm not dead, I promise.

PLEASE ENJOY~~~~


Sasuke and his team stormed into the locker room, yelling war cries. They had won the game by 14 points.

"YEAAAAH!"

"WHOOTWHOOTWHOOT!"

"FOXES ALL THE WAY!"

Sasuke grinned. He had thrown the last touchdown, so he felt pretty good about himself right about now.

"WHO'S THE BEST?" He yelled.

"WE ARE!"

"THAT'S RIGHT!" He laughed. As he was changing into his jeans (Because he usually keeps on his jersey after a winning game,) Naruto came and patted the raven on his back, sufficiently startling him.

"Oh, hey Naru." He smiled sheepishly. "Great game out there." Naruto congratulated with a chaste kiss. "Uh.. Yeah.. I guess…"

There were a few catcalls directed to the couple, sending them straight into blushes.

"I gotta go.. I have to be home early today. Bring me outside?" Naruto asked, grabbing his bag and flinging it over his shoulder. Sasuke sighed.

"Yeah… I guess so…"

Neji had been pacing outside of the locker room's back door, waiting for the star quarterback to come out. He had been uneasy ever since Itachi had yelled at him, because Itachi never yells. Stopping, he decided to lean against the double doors, twirling his hair around.

~Maybe I could talk to Sasuke a bit… I didn't mean to hurt Itachi like I did… I know I just used him, pretty much… and I knew he liked me… just not THAT much. I think he's mad cause I've been stalling.. I really don't wanna tell Sasuke what I've been feeling… but its just that it's like it's slowly killing me on the inside.~ He rubbed his face, ~That could be the reason he's angry with me… yeah… and Itachi kept talking about a plan.. Gah.. I don't know… only thing I know is that I should confess to Sasuke soo-!~

Neji fell backwards when the doors opened, sending him flat on his back. Thank gosh for his long hair, that was all over the floor, because if that wasn't there, the entire football team would've trampled over him, seeing as he was so skinny, nobody would have seen him there. Sasuke, being at the front of the pack, helped Neji up.

"Hey there, Hyuuga." He smiled. Neji dusted himself off, smiling back. "Hi Sasuke." He blushed, looking down at his feet. Sasuke turned back to his team.

"Ok, you guys can go home now. You worked hard and I'm proud." He waved them off. They started to cheer again as they went down the hallway out the door. Naruto stood by Sasuke, latched onto his right arm.

"Me too, 'Suke?" He made a puppy dog face. Sasuke gave his boyfriend a sympathetic look, as if saying 'I'm sorry.'. Naruto huffed and pouted. "I see.. Your friends are more important than me, right?"

"Naru, Hon… don't say that… I'll call you tonight." He kissed him on the cheek and sent him off on his way. Naruto crossed his arms but left the quarterback and his friend alone. For now.

Neji and Sasuke walked down the empty hallways at around 7:30 that night, talking here and there. Neji could feel his heart thumping through his chest every time the older would smile down at him.

"- I actually felt like I was going to die, but I managed to survive somehow.." Sasuke laughed, rubbing the back of his head. Neji merely chuckled.

"Yeah.. It'll do that to you.." the brunette pulled his loose hair behind his ear.

"Why did you come over to the locker room, Neji? I thought you would be with Itachi?" Sasuke inquired, making Neji flinch.

"We got into a fight..""Oh… I'm sorry… what had happened?"

"I-It's not important.." Neji replied, walking forward a bit faster.

"Was it THE fight?"

"I-I don't know."

~I guess it is… I need to tell Sasuke how I REALLY feel.. Then I could tell Itachi and he won't be angry anymore… Besides, I need to get it off of my chest too… otherwise I feel like I might explode with anxiousness… Now would be a good time… Right?~

Neji turned to Sasuke, trying not to use eye contact he was so nervous.

"Sasuke, I want to talk to you.."

Sasuke rose an eyebrow, putting his hands on his hips, scrunching up his oversized football jersey.

"Huh?"

Neji laughed at the older's obliviousness. "Over here. Not in the hall." He pulled Sasuke by the wrist into an empty classroom, catching the ravenette off guard.

~He had BETTER not try any moves on Sasuke.~

Naruto had crept back into the building, following the two with a wide berth in between them. When he had seen that Neji had pulled Sasuke into a dark room, he knew something was up. The blonde knelt down beside the door, pressing his ear as close as he possibly could toward the knob.

~Hahah! I can hear! Nishishishi…~ he chuckled in his mind, making himself comfortable.


Sorry for the short chapter..
