Chapter 6: Yes, No, Maybe, So
Naruto's POV:
A wave of emotions washed through me as I stared at him. Maybe I should…no! He's probably straight…but he might not be…What do I do?! Maybe won't reject me…but maybe he will…so I'll ask him!
I got off of my bed and ran down the stairs and out the door I knew he would follow me. He had no choice…I guess that's a good thing. I walked for a few minutes deeper into the woods and I came to a sudden halt.
"Materialize so anyone could see you, please?" I asked as I stared down at my feet.
"Hn…fine." He replied as he placed a hand on my shoulder. He then continued to speak, "what did you want to talk about?"
That's how we were, without asking we knew when one of us wanted to talk to the other in a serious matter. My way of asking that was by asking him to materialize.
"Sasuke…are you…gay?" I awkwardly asked. But I quickly added to make it seem less needy/desperate, "Are you bisexual?"
I turned around expecting to see Sasuke with a disgusted face but what I turned to face was quite the contrary. Sasuke's cheeks were a tomato shade of red and he stared as his feet as he pushed forward both his index fingers. He raised his head and caught me staring at him and quickly lowered his head again.
"I…um…I…well…um…YES." He awkwardly yelled out but his eyes widened as he placed a hand over his mouth. He quickly composed himself but he still blushed a scarlet red. His face revealed no emotion at all as he continued to speak, "Yes, I'm gay." He revealed.
He's…HE'S GAY! YAY! I HAVE HOPE! HE'S GAY! I GOT A CHANCE WITH HIM! Wait…do I even like him? He's actually kind of nice to me and he is kind of…cute…yet he can also be a bitch sometimes. So, no, I don't like him. But he's also so nice since he hears me out so…yes. Wait, maybe? I…don't know.
"Oh." That was all I could think of replying. Which only made things more awkward than they already were. I rubbed the back of my neck which I did a lot when I got nervous. I quickly ran back to the house and into my room. I then ran back down the stairs and went into the kitchen looking for my adoptive mother. She wasn't there yet I found a note on the fridge which said 'Naruto, I'm not going to be home for the following few weeks. There is pre made food in the fridge and you could also make your own food. Something came up and I had to leave but I trust that you could care for yourself.'
I read the note over and over again still not believing it. No! No! No! No! I'm going to be stuck home alone with Sasuke for a few weeks! Why?! Why not some other time?! Why today?! Oh god, this is going to be so awkward…
I ran back upstairs and plopped down on my bed. I stared up at the ceiling as I heard the front door being softly shut. Uh oh, Sasuke came back... I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Seconds later I heard my room's door being opened. I turned my head to see Sasuke standing there staring at me.
"Naruto…?" Sasuke asked, I knew he wasn't asking whether it was me or not. He was asking if I was mad at him or not. It was like our little code which I guess we made without actually speaking of it.
"Yeah…" I cautiously replied. This meant that I wasn't mad or upset simply…surprised.
"I've seen many humans in these past few months yet I think I might be in…love…with one of them." He said with no emotion.
"Oh," I felt pain go through my body. I knew he didn't love me, no one loved me.
He walked over to the bed and put either of his hands on either side of my head. He put one of his legs between my legs forcing me to open my legs a bit and his other leg was on the outer side of my left leg.
"Would you like to know who that special someone might be?" he asked me as I saw a new type of glint on his eyes. This…I had no idea what it meant apart from it being very awkward. He leaned in closer to me until our noses were touching.
"You really can't take a hint." He stated as he let a light chuckle escape his lips. He's so cute! And he has such beautiful dark eyes…his lips are just so luscious ready to be kissed. I guess I do like him. But he can sometimes be messed up…
I felt something warm against my lips and my eyes widened in shock when I realized what that warm something was…Sasuke's lips!
He retreated as a smile was placed onto his lips. So many emotions ran through me as I simply stared at him. Our noses were still touching and I saw he was about to get up so I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck holding him down as I leaned up to kiss his lips. Our mouths parted as our tongues battled for dominance. As all this happened one single thought ran through my head; I've decided. I DO like Sasuke…
…end of chapter…
