Naruto impatiently banged on the table with his fists. "Dang it, HURRY UP, SASUKE!" He yelled. "My stomach waits for NO ONE!"

Sasuke casually walked into Ichiraku's. "Be patient or you won't get anything."

Naruto laid his head on the table and grumbled.

"What would you like to have this evening, sir?" The waitress asked Sasuke sweetly.

Naruto looked outside and frowned. There were two things that he didn't understand. 1) Since when did Ichiraku inherit waitresses?

And 2) Wasn't it light outside just a couple of minutes ago?

He shook his head. Some things in this world were better left unexplained.

Sasuke had finished ordering their dinner and waited patiently for the waitress to return with the food. He glanced over at Naruto, who was impatiently tapping his hand against the table and counting the seconds until the waitress returned with his freakin' food.

He counted four hundred and twenty-eight point five seconds.

THIS WAITRESS WAS TAKING FAR TOO LONG.

He began to tap faster. Sasuke glanced over at him and smiled.

Naruto noticed that Sasuke was watching him out of the corner of his eye. He pretended not to notice.

But after thirty-two seconds of being stared at so hard that he could feel holes being burned into the side of his head, he sighed loudly and whipped his head around to glare at Sasuke. You could hear at least six bones pop. "WHAT?!" He shouted.

In the kitchen, Ichiraku burned his hand.

Sasuke, not startled one bit from Naruto's sudden outburst, continued to smile. "What, what?" He asked innocently.

"Why are you staring at me?!" Naruto asked loudly. Then, just because of the random impulse he added, "Does staring at me, like, turn you on or something?" He smirked evilly.

"Yes," Sasuke calmly replied.

Naruto's face twisted into a grimace, mixed with shock and horror.

The waitress returned with their ramen and set it in front of them. "Enjoy," she said sweetly.

Sasuke delicately began to eat.

For once in his life, Naruto could not touch his food. What could this possibly mean? He thought. He blushed lightly.

"I was kidding, Naruto," Sasuke said, still slurping his ramen.

Naruto glanced over at Sasuke, who was grinning evilly. He reminded Naruto of a gremlin.

"I have absolutely no intention of bending you over and sticking--"

"I GET IT," Naruto said loudly, the blush deepening. He could hear Sasuke laughing quietly.

There was an awkward silence as they ate. Naruto began to itch.

"I have a cream for that," Sasuke said as Naruto scratched at his groin area feverishly.

This statement caused Naruto to choke on a not-properly-chewed mouthful of noodles. He fell off of his stool, gasping for air.

Sasuke's eyes widened and he leapt off of his stool and ran to help Naruto. He picked him up from the floor and attempted to perform the Heimlich Maneuver.

This wasn't very successful.

Where are my hands supposed to go?! Sasuke thought frantically as he wrapped his arms around Naruto's waist.

He was pretty sure he was supposed to position them right above his--

He thrust his hands--fists, actually--into Naruto's stomach over and over.

To nearby callous spectators, this action seemed…kind of…awkward, to say the least.

You can only imagine.

Eventually, Ichiraku detected that something was happening and ran out to check. Upon seeing Naruto's face practically blue, he leapt like a warrior over the counter, spilling a few diners' food all over the place, and shoved Sasuke out of the way. He pounded Naruto's back numerous times before the noodles were finally regurgitated. Yucky-poo.

Naruto now lay almost lifeless on the ground, a piece of noodle hanging out of his mouth.

Sasuke dropped down next to him and lifted his head. "Naruto," he whispered. "Say something, dude!"

"You suck," Naruto rasped.

Sasuke hugged him tightly to his chest, startling the crap out of Naruto. "Oh great, you're okay."

If Naruto wasn't so weak…he would've punched him.

There would've been more to this, but I have to save SOMETHING for the later chapter(s)!
