Chapter 8
Chapter song: Jin Akanishi- Thats what she said
"'Bout time you finally made it here Naruto!" Kyuubi yelled from a distance as he spotted the two walking towards the bowl.
"Heh, yeah, I got stopped by some freshmen again, my bad." Naruto grinned and scratched the back of his head as he walked onto the plot where his brother was sitting, the redheads loud voice had pulled him from the memory so quickly that he was surprised that they were already at the Greek bowl.
"Uh-huh, sheesh, do you want to get murdered by Tsunade?" Kyuubi shook his head as he stood up and picked up his bag. 'Hmmm, he's got that 'I've just been fucked'walk.' He inwardly smirked as he watched the two walk up to him.
"Hey, she didn't give us a certain time to come see her just that we do before we go home. Plus, you're here early! You said you had some errands to take care of before we met up!" Naruto punched the redhead in his shoulder.
"I did and I finished them… twenty mins ago! And you're twenty mins late," Kyuu exclaimed, and then placed a hand on the blonde and ravens shoulders before leaning between them, "and if you and baby Sasuke can't wait to fuck, at least make it a quickie." He whispered to them.
"Kyuu, get your head out of the gutter." Sasuke rolled his eyes and brushed the redheads hand away, 'I'm going to kill him, I really am.' He mentally promised himself.
"Seriously bro." Naruto pinched the bridge of his nose at the comment. 'I knew he'd say somethin' like that.' He inwardly sighed.
"Oh come on! There's no need to lie, I can tell from your walk that he gave you a good pounding, you Uchiha's are relentless!" The redhead laughed at the shocked expressions of the accused.
"Okay, that's it, Naruto I'ma see you later 'kay?" Sasuke exasperated and turned to the blonde.
"Yeah, I understand dude, I'll stop by before I start my shift tonight." The blonde nodded in agreement and watched as the onyx eyed raven made a B-line to the parking deck.
"Soooo… how he get you to bottom?" Kyuubi grinned with a raised brow as he looked his little brother over.
"KYUU!" Naruto took a swing at the redhead, who successfully dodged and laughed at his brothers' embarrassed expression.
"Okay, okay! Now let's go get yelled at by grandma." Kyuubi said with the same grin still in place and the only response he received from the miffed blonde was a roll of his eyes as he turned to walk towards the administrations building and possibly to his doom, but how much trouble could they really be in? They were just making a bit of a show in the café, granted that Kyuubi could've been acting more towards his age, but they shouldn't be chastised too horribly. Though, knowing their grandmother, they would leave either bruised or with more shifts at work that would basically have them sleeping the night/nights in the employee bunker and nobody wanted to do that, even for the additional pay.
As the two Uzumaki brothers arrived at their final destination, they gave each other a look that clearly translated as 'Let's just get this over with' and, with a heavy sigh, they stepped into the elevator. Once the elevator reached the 4th floor they stepped off and casually walked down the long hallway, until they came to a set of double cherry wood doors and simply walked in where they were greeted by a short haired raven woman.
"-I see…well, she has actually just gone into meeting, but should be back momentarily if you would like to call back and speak to her then?" Shizune spoke into the phone and with a slight pause, she glanced over to see the redhead and blonde walk into the lobby of their grandmothers' office, "Alright, thank you for calling, have a nice day." She bid a farewell to the person on the other end and turned towards the brothers with a knowing expression.
"So, granny Tsunade is in a meeting right now?" Naruto asked in somewhat disbelief and glanced over at another set of doors that led to her office.
"Ah, no, she actually told me to just disregard any un-urgent calls until she's spoken with you two." Shizune said and shook her head slightly, 'It's a wonder how this school is doing so well when she just blows everything off.' She inwardly mused.
"Figures… in that case, we can just waltz on in?" Kyuubi smirked and ran a tanned hand through his hair.
"Yes, yes, go right on in… and good luck you two." The short haired woman waved them ahead and watched them as they knocked on the doors.
*Knock Knock*
"Come in!" Their grandmothers' voice yelled from the other side, and as they opened the doors they were pleasantly surprised to see a long white haired man, around the same as Tsunade, sitting on a couch diagonal from the busty woman's desk.
"Yo Gramps! What're you doin' here?" Naruto grinned and quickly walked, nearly ran, over to the red tear streaked tattooed faced man.
"Naruto my boy how's ya first day back?" The white haired man asked as he stood, obviously trying to dodge the question asked of him.
"Meh, it was great up until Danzo started goin' senile on Sasuke and me. Really granny, why don't you fire him already?" Naruto scratched his cheek and turned towards his grandmother.
"As much as I want to, you know I cannot fire him unless he makes a violation of school policies." Tsunade said with an agitated glare directed towards the white haired man beside him. Having seen who she was glaring at and the way she said the word, almost as if she was speaking to their grandfather, the redhead quickly clicked the pieces together.
"Uh-oh, what did you do this time Jiraiya?" Kyuubi asked their tattooed faced grandpa, 'Knowing him he was probably caught flirting with one of the school girls again.' He guessed to himself.
"Ahahah, I know what you're thinking and that's not the case this time!" Jiraiya held up a hand in defense at his eldest grandson accusation.
"He's right Kyuu, he actually isn't in any trouble this time. You two still are however." Tsunade said and reached into her desk for a specific folder, "He just so happened to have a student come into his class for late registration purposes and has come to me for official confirmation…. I'm just glad that the student was a male instead of a female, otherwise this perverted old codger would really be in here for the reasons you were thinking of." She continued with a smirk and handed the folder to the man in question.
"Must you all be so presumptuous of me? You make me out to be some lecherous old man!" Jiraiya glowered at his grandsons and Tsunade.
"That's because you are!" Naruto laughed, "Anyways, is this kid new or something?" He continued to speak, efficiently cutting off whatever comment his grandpa was going to say to his previous comment.
"Actually he is and I've decided upon something, as punishment for all that commotion earlier, I want you to help him out around the campus and with any other issues he may need assistance with. Understand?!" Tsunade instructed Naruto and only him.
"What?! Oh come on granny, that's so not fair! There are maps and counselors around here for a reason!" Naruto exclaimed, 'Please tell me this is some kinda cruel joke!' he inwardly pleaded.
"You ungrateful little brat! You should be thankful that I'm having you do this instead of adding on extra hours to your work schedule! Now shut up and I don't want to hear another peep out of you until we're done here!" Tsunade hollered at her peeved grandson.
"Just keep quiet bro, it's really not that bad." Kyuu cautioned his little brother, who looked as if he were on the verge of blowing his top.
"And you Kyuu, one of the professors in the health department is going to be absent the week after next and I'm appointing you to take over their class for the week that she is gone. Understand?" Tsunade informed her eldest grandson.
"…." Kyuubi nodded while gritting his teeth together with such force that he should've broken them, to say he was pissed would be an understatement, and thusly he was too livid to even speak. 'Breathe Kyuu, just breathe, it'll be alright.' He mentally tried to calm himself.
"Ah, see! That's not too bad boys, Tsunade can really be nice…. when she isn't downing the sauce." Jiraiya said with an arm slung around the redhead and blondes' shoulder, all the while looking at the woman in question with a mischievous smirk.
"Look you demented fool, if you're in your right mind you'll shut up and go find that student of yours and introduce him to Naruto before he leaves campus. He should still be here, but not for much longer, so get to hobbling!" The pigtailed chancellor all but growled at the white haired man, who only laughed but quickly made his way out of the office.
"Well, grandmother, if that is all, I need to get going. I have to get to work soon." Kyuubi calmed himself just enough to be able to excuse himself.
"Hmph, very well, but you stay put Naruto and don't try to tell me you have work as well, I already know you don't go in until much later." Tsunade nodded at Kyuu and then snapped her eyes towards a certain blonde, who looked as though he were going to follow his redhead brother. As Kyuubi left the office, he spared his little brother a parting glance that was filled with agitation, sympathy and tiredness, he really wasn't looking forward to having to work and teach a class at the same time, which would undoubtedly leave him with little to no time to spend with his boyfriend.
'At least it's only for a week.' Kyuubi mentally sighed as he shut the door and headed in the direction of the parking deck.
Once Kyuubi had left, Naruto went to flop down into one of the tan leather couches in the room and proceeded to pout at the fact that he would soon have to act as a tour guide for a new student, and briefly glanced at the clock on the wall, which read 4:12pm, only three more hours until he had to go to work. He'd much rather be taking a nap before work, than to be meeting some kid, he really didn't even know whether the boy was a freshman or what, matter of fact, he didn't know how long the kid would need help getting around and even more importantly, he didn't know how Sasuke would handle someone else being around his boyfriend for an unknown amount of time. Simply because, once he found out the one he would be helping was a boy, he would be suspicious as to whether or not the boy was possibly attracted to guys or both sexes, and that right there would be enough to have the raven on edge the whole time.
As the blonde pondered over these thoughts and very likely scenarios, his grandmother seemed to actually be going over some sort of documents, in other words it seemed as if she were actually doing some form of work instead of pushing everything onto Shizune. After who knows how long of him just laying there letting his mind wander and his grandmothers sifting through papers, with the occasional tapping of the computer keys, the speaker on her desk buzzed and Shizune's voice penetrated the quiet room.
"Tsunade, Jiraiya sent the boy back, are you ready to see him?" Shizune asked.
"Yes, send him in," Tsunade pressed a button in response and clicked the phone off, "Gods know I'm ready to go home." She grumbled as she stacked the papers in a messy pile on her desk, and just as she leaned back into her chair there was a knock at the door. "Come in!" Tsunade called towards the door, which swiftly opened to reveal a boy that made Naruto's eyes widen in shock.
"Good afternoon chancellor, you wanted to see me?" The boy spoke from the door, the boy had to be around Naruto's height if not just a bit taller with ear length black hair, seriously pale skin and dark eyes, Naruto stared at the boy with a raised brow at the boy uncanny similarity to a certain raven.
"Yes, I wanted to introduce you to my grandson Naruto, he's been gracious enough to offer you his assistance around the campus and anything else you may need help with," Tsunade said and waved her hand over to the mentioned blonde, she didn't even bat a lash as she said it was his idea to help him out, "Naruto, this is Sai Shimura." She introduced the boy to Naruto with another wave of her hand, except this time it was directed to Sai.
"Uh, yo how ya- wait! Did you say Shimura granny?!" Naruto cut himself off and whirled around to face his grandmother, but once he was facing her he saw that she had a slightly bored and aggravated look on her face.
"Yes Naruto, I did, he is Danzo's adopted son. Hence the last name." The hazel eyed chancellor said in an exasperated tone, obviously tired of dealing with school affairs.
"Ugh, a Shimura is still a Shimura, this is just great! Now I have to be around a mini tight-ass all the-" Naruto ground out in frustration, but was quickly cut off before he could complete his sentence.
"I am nothin' like that chauvinistic old bastard." Sai snapped at Naruto, "Anyways, what were you saying?" He continued with a seemingly fake smile.
"Uhhh, O-kay… So yeah, like the old lady said, I'll be helpin' you out… if you really need it." Naruto blinked at the pale boy with confusion and shrugged at the little mood swing. 'Great, he even seems to act like Sasuke to.' Naruto mentally shook his head.
"Alright you two, you can continue your little conversation elsewhere. Just get out, I'm starting to get a migraine and thanks to my daughter and son-in-law getting that late notice of being needed out of town, now I have to supervise the hospital and make sure Kyuubi doesn't slack off." Tsunade said just a little too loudly to be considered friendly and stood up only to shove the boys towards the door.
"Hey! Sheesh old lady, just throw us out why don't you!" Naruto scowled at the pushy pale blonde woman.
"Brat!" Tsunade hollered and smacked Naruto in the back of his head, then proceeded to slam the door on him before he could complain.
"Well, she seems nice." Sai smiled at Naruto, who was currently rubbing his head.
"Yeah, real nice…. so, I'm guessin' you're freshmen, what with ya needin' me to show you around and all." Naruto commented as they walked down the hall.
"No, I'm 22 a junior. Danzo just had me placed into a private college, until I convinced him otherwise." Sai mentioned.
"Really? So you're the same age as me… but, if he put you in a private school to begin with, how did ya convince him to let you come here?" Naruto asked and began to walk towards the parking deck.
"Blackmail." The pale boy said as if there was nothing wrong with that. 'That old man has too many skeletons for me to take advantage of anyways.' He inwardly mused with a smirk.
"Oh man! Hahah! Awesome man, it's 'bout time someone threaten that old fart with more than just his job, way to go. I like you already." Naruto laughed and slung an arm around the pale male as they walked into the parking deck.
"That's exactly why I'm doin' it, you would too if you had to live with him." Sai smirked.
"Shit, I have him as a professor, that's bad enough!" Naruto groaned and leaned against his car.
"Wow, this yours?" Sai asked with a raised brow at the blindingly bright orange car behind the blonde.
"Yeah, sweet right? She's a-" The blue eyed male grinned widely and ran a hand over the car, but was once again cut off.
"A Ferrari 458 Italia, you're right, she is nice… how does she ride?" Sai cut in and watched as the tanned male's smile grew even wider at his question.
"Wanna find out?" Naruto asked as he beeped the car open and motioned for him to hop in.
"Sure, this is actually pretty convenient since I didn't drive to campus today." Sai smiled oddly again and got into the car.
"Guess it's your lucky day then, huh?" Naruto smirked at him as he stared the car and once again all but peeled out of the deck.
"Hmm, it sure is." Sai mumbled and glanced at the speeding blonde.
"So this is Danzo's evil lair huh? Not what I expected… it's actually normal!" Naruto grinned as he slumped down onto the brown leather couch while Sai sat across from him on an equally upholstered recliner.
"An evil lair, hmm? I always thought of it as a temple of doom, he keeps a lot of old and odd things in this house." Sai smirked at the eye wandering blonde across from him.
"Hahah, that's a good one! Hmm, 'Sai Shimura and the Temple of Doom'… gotta nice ring to it." Naruto grinned widely as he turned back to Sai.
"Funny, I bet you keep your friends in stitches." Sai remarked with a raised brow.
"Ahh, hahaha I try. It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it… matter-o-fact, my friend Kiba helps out a lot in that situation too. Hell! With all the moody people in our gang we need two people to liven things up a bit youknowwhatimean?!" The blonde exclaimed.
"Oh really, I would hope your girlfriend doesn't fall into that category." Sai mentioned with an amused smirk.
"Huh? Oh, uh, no no! Hahah, the girls in our group are nowhere close to bein' moody…. Wait, scratch that, they are but in a different way! Uh, you get what I'm sayin' right?" Naruto scratched the back of his head in frustration. 'Man, he just came out of nowhere with that…' He flustered inwardly.
"Hmm, I suppose girls will be girls?" Sai suggested.
"Exactly!" Naruto agreed a bit louder than necessary, "Oh, but not to say all girls are like that, though I think I really only know of one girl that doesn't have mood swings like the others." He quickly added.
"I'm assuming that's your girlfriend then?" Sai guessed with a slightly raised brow. 'Though I get the feeling he'd need a strict girl in his life, he's rather enthusiastic.' He continued in thought.
"Ehh? No, more like my ex. Back when we dated she was incredibly shy! I mean, ya could hardly ever get a complete sentence out of her without her stumbling all over her words. She's a hell of a lot better now though." Naruto smiled mainly to himself at the memories.
"From the way you're speaking so fondly of her, I'd say you really liked her. So, why's it that you two aren't dating now?" Sai questioned with a look of genuine confusion.
"Hahah, well I can't talk bad 'bout her, I mean we're still friends! But, of course I still care for her, uh, though it's not in that way anymore…. Besides, I finally got the person of my dreams now." Naruto confessed with a small smile, but then quickly realized that he was basically spilling his past to a person he had barely known for an hour. Then, as if by some stroke of luck, bad as it may be, the blondes' phone began to ring.
The monsters are buried down deep inside,
You never know when they're satisfied.
Buried down deep where the sun don't shine,
The monsters are buried down deep inside.'
"Crap, this is my brother, hang on." Naruto tsk'd and answered the call that surely wouldn't carry good news, "Yo what's up Kyuu?" He spoke into the phone.
"'ey Naru, don't kill me for this okay?! But I need ya to come in early… like now early. We just got a huge rush of patients' that were involved in a high way incident and we need everyone we can get." Kyuu explained over a seriously noisy background, successfully proving what he just said.
"Ya gotta be kiddin' me dude! For cryin'—shit, I guess I have no choice!" Naruto exasperated into the phone and ran a hand through his hair.
"I know, I know! Trust me I'm not too thrilled 'bout this either…. Ahh, Tsunade just got here so I gotta go. Now ya hurry it up and drag lil' Sasuke down here with ya!" Kyuu said in a rush before hanging up, not even giving his brother time to respond.
"Shit!" Naruto cursed and shoved his phone in his pocket as he stood.
"Urgent call I presume?" Sai gave an odd smile as he watched the blue eyed boy shot out of his seat, but none the less stood as well.
"Ugh, yeah, I gotta get to the hospital ASAP. Sorry ta be runnin' out on ya!" Naruto said in a hurry as he headed for the door.
"It's no problem, Danzo is supposed to be back any minute now and I personally don't wanna be here when he does." Sai chuckled slightly and held the door open as Naruto passed.
"Hahah, man I don't blame ya! But I'll see ya tomorrow and just text me if ya need any help around campus!" Naruto waved ask he slid into his car and proceeded to quickly pull off after he received a salute from the pale boy.
As Naruto rushed through the city streets, having deciding not to chance the highway in fear of catching the remaining backup of traffic from the accident, he decided to just call ahead to the youngest Uchiha, who sounded as if he had just been sleeping. Getting the raven to believe that they both indeed had to go into work hours early, two days early for Sasuke, was harder than it should've been, but eventually he agreed to head to the hospital as quickly as he could without soliciting police officer, though he knew he might get off with just a warning, seeing as how his father was in charge of the whole district precinct and then some. With informing his dark haired boyfriend out of the way, the blonde reached the hospital only moments later to find that the entrance was beyond flooded with people, paramedics and patients' alike.
"This is gonna be a long night." Naruto sighed as he pulled into the hospital parking deck and quickly parked. Though just as he was getting out, a very groggy looking raven exited his car a few yards down from his, "Yo Shika, wake up man, we don't have time for ya to be lazing around today!" Naruto grinned and smacked the zombie looking Nara on his shoulder.
"You'd be past exhausted to if you were just woken up by your annoyingly loud brother." Shika said through a massive yawn.
"I might not have been sleep, but trust me, I was 'bout to get some Z's in before work." Naruto mentioned and then yawned having seen Shika yawn.
"Ugh, this is so troublesome!" Shika grunted as they stepped into the elevator. The ride in the elevator was a peaceful one, neither one of them spoke, but it was a comfortable silence and thusly they decided to keep it that way. However, as the doors finally opened just around the corner to the lobby, they could hear utter mass hysteria as patients were still coming in and the hospital staff shouting commands, though most of the people in the lobby had to be mere relatives of those being admitted, hence they made up the majority of all the noise.
"Sheesh! You guys are finally here, we've been waiting forever! Now, hurry up and get into your scrubs, Naruto you head to the ER and Shika you assist my dad in surgery. Go on, get!" Ino order the two and proceeded to push them towards the employee bunker rooms to change.
"Dammit Ino we're goin'! Now stop pushing!" Shika grumbled and leaned away from Ino's final nudge.
"Seriously man, we get it! We need to hurry." Naruto waved the pale blonde female away.
"Oh stop complainin' and just get changed!" Ino smirked and quickly whipped around, heading back to whatever she was previously doing.
"God I swear, I think I'm the last person that should be assigned to surgery right now, I'm too tired for this," Shikamaru said after they had finished dressing out, "Hell, I much rather be workin' down in the lab with my pops." He continued and slumped against his locker.
"Hah! You'd still have to be awake for both dude, besides you're still in trainin', so all ya have to do is stand there and do whatever Inoichi says. As for me I don't think it would make a difference if my pop's was here to—Oh shit man!" Naruto cut himself off when a realization hit him.
"Jeez Naruto calm down, don't get yourself worked up before ya even get to the ER." Shika shook his head.
"Naw man it's not that, I completely forgot that I was supposed to be meeting my parents at home! They're goin' out of town again and they still wanted to tell Kyuu and me something!" Naruto exclaimed and reached for his cell, but just as he did, the door to the locker room flew open to reveal a very over the edge looking Tsunade.
"Here you two are! Quit your damn lolly-gagging and get out here!" Tsunade thundered and wretched the boys out of the room.
"Ugh, granny wait! I was about to call mom's and tell her that we can't make it home!" Naruto exclaimed as he was dragged to the ER doors.
"You don't have time to be worrying about that now brat, they'll understand after I talk to them, now go on!" The pigtailed granny thrust her youngest grandson through the doors of the ER, and then continued to practically drag the young Nara up to surgery.
12:33am
Seven hours of after each hospital member who had gotten the call to rush over arrived, things had finally calmed down enough so to where some of them were able to head home for the night and the others to take a much needed break, especially for those who had to break the bad news to the waiting families that their loved ones hadn't made it through surgery or had died on impact during the crash. That was a job that no one wanted to do, not even the most experienced workers, such as Tsunade, who had ended up helping out in surgery, and Inoichi. Being that they were in the operating room trying to save those who didn't make it, they caught all the emotion and anger the families had to offer for their loss. But, thankfully, everyone was now in stable condition, so there was no more yelling at the moment and for that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good god, it's 'bout time shit settled 'round here!" A silver haired man said as he sat down in the cafeteria with those on break.
"Can it Hidan, you know we both like when things get hectic like that." Another worker, with sea foam green eyes that always seemed to be bloodshot red, said.
"Ah touché Kakuzo, you know me so well!" The silver haired man, named Hidan, smirked at his serious faced friend.
"Seriously, you guys are crazy. Who actually enjoys all that commotion and in a hospital no less!" Sakura groaned at her co-workers and pinched her head between her fingers.
"Well, I guess when you get as old as them anything can entertain you." Ino jeered and jabbed her thumb in their direction.
"HEY! I am not old! We just barely crossed the 30yr marker mind you!" Hidan exclaimed as he whipped around to confront the joking blonde, which in turn caused her to break out in a fit of laughter.
"Ugh, I swear you guys are as bad as Naruto, Kiba and the whole pediatrics ward." Sasuke shook his head tiredly at the bickering duo.
"Ha, you said it." Sakura nodded, "Speaking of which, where is Naruto?" She questioned.
"Hn, beats me. When I got here you immediately ordered me to run around and take names of all those who were injured and then to put them in the system." Sasuke gave an accusing glare at his pink haired friend.
"Oh don't be a sour puss Sasuke, I was told to have you do that when you got in. Plus, being that it's your first day and that fact that is was so crazy, you should be lucky they gave you such an easy task." Sakura chided the pale raven.
"Billboard brow here is right, you got it easy today dude." Ino grinned mischievously at her sister.
"No one asked for your input Ino-pig!" Sakura glowered towards the wisecracker.
"I swear, you two have been the exact same as when I first met you. All you two do is jibe on the other." Kakuzo exhaled and slouched further down into the booth, obviously exhausted from the long day.
"Ya've only scratched the surface with them two Kaku." A male voice laughed from the opposite entrance to the café.
"Shut up Kyuu!" Ino and Sakura hissed at the same time, which only made the red head laugh even harder.
"Aww, now is that da greetin' I get for comin' to tell ya ya'll can head home for the night?! Some friends ya are, maybe I should just tell Tsunade you two wanted to stay a while longer." Kyuubi said with a heartbroken expression that soon morphed into a sly one as he mentioned his grandmother.
"….. Kyuu, you know we're just kiddin' around!" Ino quickly stated.
"Uh-huh, Suuuure ya were! Hahah, anywho, ya'll are good to go for the night, so ya can all head home. Oi, little Sasuke, Naruto said he'd meet ya down in the garage, so let's all get the hell outta here before granny changes her mind!" Kyuu ordered and promptly sped out the café.
"Thank god!" Sakura, Ino and Hidan all exclaimed and quickly followed after the redhead, with the exception of Kazuko who was being pulled by his grey haired co-worker and Sasuke who chose to walk a distance away from the excited group. However, having decided to take his time in heading to the garage, inwardly scheming on having a certain blonde wait even longer for him, he ended up having to wait for the other elevator to the lot to come back to his current floor, the others having already taken the other. Though, once the elevator finally dinged open he quickly stepped inside and pressed the button for the garage and the one to close the doors even faster, but of course that button barely did anything but save people half a second of waiting, but even so, the ride down was a surprisingly short one and he was all to thankful.
"I think I've let him wait long enough." Sasuke murmured to himself with a small smirk as he walked through the barely lit parking deck, even though the place was gated and only accessible to those having the code, the place really could've been better lit, 'This place reminds me of a scene out of a horror movie.' He continued in thought, he'd never admit to anyone though that he didn't trust dark places like this and with that creepy thought seeping into his mind, he quickly picked up his pace towards his car, hopefully that's where Naruto would be waiting. But as soon as he rounded the corner to where his car was he heard, clear as day, something move behind him, but before he could even whip around to see what or who it was he was grabbed from behind by a pair of seriously strong arms. Refusing to let a scared scream pass his lips, he grunted and thrashed as much as he could in his constricted state.
"Got-cha!" A male voice whispered into his ear, though, as soon as he heard that voice he ceased all of his movements, with the exception of one quick jab to his attacker's side.
"Naruto! Are you tryin' to give me a fuckin' heart attack?!" The raven hissed and spun around to see his blonde boyfriend holding his hit side.
"Ahahah! Aww, did I scare my little raven?" Naruto crooned and stood upright, ignoring the pain in his side, and grabbed said ravens chin to look him in his dark eyes.
"Hn, you wish," Sasuke narrowed his eyes, "Now, can we get going before someone really attacks us?" He continued and without waiting for a reply, turned to walk the remaining feet to his car that was parked next to the blondes.
"So you are scared! Hahah! This is pricele—" The tanned attacker began to jibe, but was cut off with another jab to his side by a slightly red faced Uchiha.
"It's not funny! You're goin' to pay for this later!" The pale boy warned as he beeped his car open and hurriedly got in to hide his creeping embarrassment.
"Oh really now? And just whatcha gonna do, that I'm actually not gonna like?" Naruto questioned from the side of his car.
"….. I'm going to destroy your stash of ramen!" Sasuke grinned and quickly commanded his car to start, having seen the blondes face right before he peeled out of his spot was enough to let him know that he'd better hurry if he wanted to even get rid of one bowl. His thoughts were confirmed as soon as he hit the city streets and his phone began to vibrate, having not changed the volume yet from being at work.
"Teme, it's your ass if you harm a single bowl!" Naruto growled into the phone.
"We'll see about that!" Sasuke challenged and heard nothing but the acceleration of the car on the other end before the line cut off. Time was now of the essence if he wanted things to go his way, and he had no intentions on going to sleep just yet.
