A/N: This will be Sasu/Naru. I know, overused pairing that some people are sick of seeing, but that too bad. Don't like, don't read. I'm working on other stories with more unusual pairings but this needed to be written first.
Perpetual Darkness Ch. 2
"Excuse me miss, I'm new here and I need to get my schedule and locker number." The receptionist, a woman who looked to be in her mid to late twenties looked up at him and smiled kindly.
"Name please." Naruto looked at her before lowering his gaze and quietly replying.
"Uzumaki Naruto." She remained silent and the blonde looked up at her again to see her reaction. He could see she had stiffened slightly and there was a trace of fear in her face, but she forced a smile and asked him to have a seat before pressing a button on an intercom.
"Tsunade-sama, Uzumaki Naruto has arrived." Naruto glanced up at that. He once knew a woman by that name, but it couldn't possibly be the same one so he ignored the rest of the woman's relayed message through the intercom and waited patiently to be called. He didn't have to wait long, not even a minute had passed, when a very well endowed blonde woman swiftly walked into the waiting room and stood before him. Naruto's eyes widened when he noticed she was the woman he used to know.
"Naruto, it's been a long time. Come with me please." He stood and followed her into her office, closing the door behind him. Once they were inside she looked at him and smiled warmly before pulling him into a motherly embrace.
"I've been so worried about you brat. I didn't think I'd ever see you again." He forced down the urge to jerk away and shakily returned the embrace. This woman had helped him a great deal in the past and he didn't want to hurt her feelings.
"Tsunade I didn't know you'd be here." She pulled away and looked at him with a silly grin on her face.
"I'm the principle here brat, didn't you read your handbook?" Naruto gave a confused look before glancing at his feet.
"I wasn't given one. They didn't exactly like me in that place; any mail for me was probably thrown out." Tsunade frowned at that and rested her hand on his shoulder.
"It's ok Naruto; I'll make sure you get everything you need." He nodded and sat down while she shuffled through his file, getting all the information he would need.
Twenty minutes later, Naruto was let out of Tsunade's office and pointed in the direction of his first class. As he looked at his schedule, he saw that first period was English with a Mr. Umino. Sighing lightly he walked in silence, keeping his distance from the other students in the hall. He loved English; he just hoped the teacher wouldn't hate him. That would completely ruin his chances of enjoying one of his favorite subjects.
After wandering around for ten minutes, he finally found the classroom just as the late bell rang. Taking a deep steadying breath, Naruto slowly pulled the door open and stepped in. Immediately the room went completely silent as everyone took in the very tall blonde boy that walked into the room, most wondering who this new boy was. He looked nervously around the room and walked to the teacher's desk. Mr. Umino was slightly shorter than Naruto who stood about 6'1", and had long brown hair tied into a high ponytail and a scar running across the bridge of his nose.
Naruto leaned in and quietly told the teacher his name fully expecting to be looked at in fear or disgust. Instead he just gave a friendly smile and turned to the class, pulling Naruto to stand next to him.
"Alright class, settle down, we have a new student with us. Please tell us your name and something about yourself." Naruto glanced to the teacher nervously before looking at the rest of the class.
"M-My name is Uzumaki Naruto." He heard several gasps and murmured whispers amongst the class. He looked to the teacher helplessly, as if not knowing what else to say.
"Nice to meet you Naruto, Tell us, what are some of your hobbies." Mr. Umino asked, trying to make it a little easier on the poor boy.
"Uh…well I like to draw and write, and I like music, mostly singing and playing piano." The teacher gave the blonde another smile and nodded in approval of the answer before glancing around the room to find an empty desk.
"Aw there we go, Naruto you can sit over there by Uchiha Sasuke. Sasuke please raise your hand so he can see where you are." Naruto glanced around and saw an extremely handsome boy with black hair and obsidian eyes with his arm raised and a bored look on his face. The blonde quietly made his way towards the back of the room and slid into the desk next to the Uchiha boy.
As the class droned on, Sasuke kept taking glances at the blonde from the corner of his eyes. From the moment the blonde entered the room, Sasuke was mesmerized by him. Something about him made the Uchiha infinitely curious, he was determined to figure this boy out. He quickly scribbled a note and passed it to the blonde.
Naruto looked at the folded paper on his desk then back to Sasuke curiously before unfolding it and reading the elegant writing.
What classes do you have?
Naruto had this adorably confused look on his face and he wrote down his schedule and passed the note back to Sasuke. Said Uchiha smirked at the blonde and unfolded the note.
Period 1 English Mr. Umino
Period 2 History Mr. Jiraiya
Period 3 Math Mrs. Peach
Period 4 Science Mrs. Yuuhi
Lunch
Period 5 Music Mrs. Jacobs
Period 6 Art Mr. Brown
Period 7 Drama Mr. Hatake
Period 8 Physical Education Mr. Maito
Sasuke's smirk grew at this. He glanced Naruto's way and scribbled another note under Naruto's before passing it back to the blonde. Naruto unfolded the paper and slowly read the note before smiling.
Me too, Want to walk together?
The only way Sasuke could tell the blonde was smiling underneath that mask was because of the way his eyes crinkled just a little on the sides. Naruto turned to the Uchiha and nodded his head before turning back to the teacher. Sasuke stared at the clock for the next fifteen minutes, counting down the second until he would be able to get the blonde to talk to him.
When the bell rang Naruto slowly stood and tossed his bag over his shoulder before turning to Sasuke. The Uchiha started towards the door, motioning for Naruto to follow. Once they were in the halls Sasuke attempted to start a conversation.
"So what's with the mask?" Naruto silently cursed the other boy for asking that question first out of everything he could have asked. The blonde glanced at the Uchiha before giving a quiet reply.
"It' kind of personal, I'd rather not talk about it now considering I don't really know you yet." Sasuke nodded in understanding and didn't press the matter. They continued this way, walking in a comfortable silence from class to class until lunch came around. As they walked out of science, Sasuke was swarmed by giggling girls and what looked to be the football team all of whom were glaring at Naruto. The blonde bowed his head slightly and began to walk away. Sasuke, seeing this attempted to get the giggling tramps detached from his arms to follow the other boy. He shook most of them off, but two very persistent girls refused to let go. A blonde by the name of Yamanaka Ino, and a girl with bright bubblegum pink hair named Haruno Sakura. Finally when he saw Naruto turn the corner he lost his patience and jerked his arms roughly, causing the girls to fall to the ground.
"Don't touch me again!" With that he took off running after Naruto, leaving the "popular crowd" to stare at him in shock. No one had ever seen Sasuke raise his voice or show any emotion other than slight irritation.
When Sasuke finally found Naruto, the boy was lounging on a tree branch reading a suspicious looking orange book with a bright red warning label on the back. He looked up and waited for the boy to acknowledge him, but the blonde seemed far to engrossed in his reading to notice anything.
"Hey dobe. Why did you run off?" Naruto glanced down at the Uchiha in irritation. The guy had been nice all morning and now he decides to start calling him names? What the hell?
"Don't call me dobe, teme!" Sasuke chuckled in amusement and climbed the tree to sit next to the blonde. Naruto raised a slender blonde brow at him before going back to his book.
"What are you reading?" The question caught Naruto a little off guard as Sasuke had kept quiet for a full ten minutes after he sat next to him.
"Icha Icha Paradise Vol.6, ever read it?" Sasuke pondered it for a moment then replied "Is that the Yaoi edition? That's the only one I've read." Naruto almost fell out of the tree at that and he glanced at Sasuke in surprise.
"Well, no Vol. 5 is the Yaoi edition. So you're gay?" Sasuke looked back into blue eyes in a bored manner.
"Hn." Naruto looked annoyed at that answer, so decided to prod a little further on the matter.
"Hn? What the hell kind of an answer is Hn? Look I don't care if you are I was just curious considering all the girls you had hanging all over you I figured you were straight as an arrow." Sasuke smirked at the blonde, amused at his annoyance.
"What about you Blondie, you gay?" To his surprise, Naruto looked at him calmly and replied "I'm bi, twice as many people to choose from." Sasuke was exceedingly pleased to hear this. He gave the blonde a small smile before answering his previous question.
"Yes I'm gay, can't stand women." Naruto nodded in understanding and was about to ask another question when the bell rang. The boys jumped down from the tree and made their way inside, towards the music room.
Once the class was seated, the music teacher Mrs. Jacobs explained that she would be seeing what everyone was capable of today. She went down the roll call list testing each person on instruments or singing, depending on what they claimed they could do. When they finally got to Sasuke, he stood and made his way to the teacher, grabbing the guitar from her, he played a complicated solo masterfully. When he was finished everyone was clapping and whistling at the Uchiha. Naruto noticed Sasuke didn't look to happy about the attention he was getting. Once Sasuke took his seat, the teacher called on Naruto. He was extremely nervous; he had never played in front of people, much less sing in front of them.
"Mr. Uzumaki, what is it you can do?" He walked slowly to the teacher and looked down on her; she was a very short woman, around 5'4" looking to be around 26 and was slightly pudgy.
"I play piano, and I sing." She raised a brow at him in disbelief.
"You expect to sing wearing that mask Uzumaki, not in my class! Off with it." Naruto took a step back; He really didn't want to remove his mask.
"Mrs. Jacobs please, I can't take it off." She gave him a stern glare.
"Fine, show me what you can do on the piano. I expect you to take that stupid mask off on Friday and sing for us though so prepare yourself for it." He gave a light nod and took his place at the piano. Taking a deep breath, he closed his eye and began to play. The melodic sound of the instrument flowed through the room leaving everyone in awe of the boy's abilities. The teacher looked at the blonde in shock. The way he played such a complicated sounding song was amazing to her. When he finished, Naruto opened his eyes and glanced to the teacher and then the class nervously.
"W-Was it ok?" Everyone's jaws dropped at the question. Was this boy stupid or just very unsure of himself? Mrs. Jacobs broke the silence finally.
"Tell me Mr. Uzumaki, what song is that? I don't believe I've ever heard it." Naruto rubbed the back of his neck nervously before glancing at her.
"I-It's untitled right now. I just wrote it not long ago and haven't thought of a decent name yet." Once again everyone was floored by this. The boy was a genius, that's all there was too it.
"Well Mr. Uzumaki, It was brilliant! Keep this up and you will have no trouble acing this class." The teacher patted him kindly on the shoulder and pushed him towards his seat where a stunned Sasuke sat right beside him. The Uchiha turned to ask Naruto about his talent when the bell rang. Both boys quickly grabbed their things and headed to their next class.
After art and drama, Naruto was just ready to go home and sleep. He wasn't use to spending eight or so hours in classes. Now as he and Sasuke headed to P.E. he was slightly worried. He really hated the P.E. uniform Tsunade gave him. Black shorts that he was sure wouldn't make it much passed mid thigh considering he was so tall, and a very tight blue tank top with the Konoha high mascot, a fox on the front in black. Naruto hated being exposed. He was worried he might have a panic attack at this rate. Sasuke noticed the nervous look on the blondes face and laid a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Calm down dobe, after this class we're out of here for the day." He smirked as Naruto turned red at the name.
"Don't call me dobe, Teme!" Sasuke Chuckled at the blonde's anger and Naruto rolled his eyes and the Uchiha in annoyance.
"You just love to piss me off don't you?"
"Hn."
Once in the locker room, the boys got lockers next to each other and slowly began undressing. Sasuke was the first to finish of course, considering his white shorts and blue button up shirt were all he wore except for boxers. Naruto on the other hand was having technical difficulties with all the buttons and ties on his attire.
Sasuke watched as the blonde unzipped his black jacket, slowly pulling it off before moving onto a skin tight black long sleeved shirt that had four chains he had to unhook before moving onto the six hooks to undo it the rest of the way. Once the shirt was off Sasuke was in awe of the boy's body. Fine toned muscles cover every inch of the tanned boy's chest back and arms. His eyes made their way down and he saw a large tribal looking tattoo circling the blonde's navel. He decided it was very sexy. Naruto then moved onto his very tight black leather pants which the Uchiha couldn't believe he didn't notice before. The tight material clung to the blondes every curve showing that he had a fantastic ass. Sasuke was beginning to worry that he would get a nose bleed if he continued to watch, but he just couldn't tear his eyes away.
Naruto wiggled about trying to get the damn leather off of him, silently vowing to burn the pants when he got home. After several moments of struggle he finally got out of them and rushed to pull on the extremely short gym shorts along with an extremely tight tank top that just barely kept his stomach covered.
Sasuke, at seeing just how revealing the gym uniform was on the blonde had to turn away, at this point he was painfully hard. He had no idea how he was going to handle this every day. Naruto noticed Sasuke's problem, but really didn't think he should comment on it…yet. He was glad to know he turned the Uchiha on so much because he was becoming attracted to the boy as well. He decided that he shouldn't act just yet though; he only just met Sasuke today. If things kept going like they were though, he figured he could act on this attraction fairly soon that is if Sasuke didn't act first.
