Mic: Hi people!
ITMB: Wassup?
MIC: ON WITH THE STORY TTEBA!
It was Sunday. Naruto was worried. He was beyond worried. It's been two weeks since the practice, he and to take the next few classes slowly, at first he didn't do anything because of the bruises, simply watching and memorizing everything he saw, but he was progressing (he was still a bit painful) and Kakashi had been sending everyone from the Martial arts club except for Sakura over at his house after school to …'bond'…Suigetsu and him had gotten along quite well, he didn't actually care about what Sakura said about the blonde and said that if he had seen him earlier (because they didn't have the same classes) he would have befriended him. He was very similar to Kiba but not so…loud. Juugo….well he was kinda like Gaara, silent and serious, but he wasn't a sadist and did show his emotions. Karin was, well, a girl, something like Sakura because she liked Sasuke but she didn't hate him, she was just….a girl. Kakashi said that he would send Sasuke to his house again that day. That was the reason of his distress. He jumped when Jiraiya knocked on his door.
"Oi there's another kid here to see you."
"O-Okay ttebayo…" He quickly tried to fight down his nervousness. It was because of One: Uchiha's scared the hell out of him, he didn't know why thought. Two: Sakura was gonna have his head when she knew that he had been with Sasuke. He jumped (again) when said boy entered his room and sat down on the chair of his desk.
"Um…hi?..."
"Hn." He didn't even look at him, which angered the blonde, but he didn't say anything. They were like that for about 5 minutes before Naruto had to talk again.
"Sooo….do yo-you want to-to do a-anything tteba?"
"No."
"Okay…" Another 5 minutes passed when Jiraiya came in.
"Oi, I need to go out, you think you two can be alone?"
"Uh…ye-yeah…?"
"Okay! See ya brats!" Sasuke's eye almost twitched in irritation. And another 5 minutes passed before Naruto talked.
"Do-Do you wa-want something to e-eat or drink-ink?" He started getting up when someone pushed him down.
"No."
"But-"
"It's okay."
"…Okay…" For some reason ever since he had met Sasuke (although not personally) he had seemed pretty familiar, there was just something about him…
"-ungry?"
"Huh?"
"I said are you hungry? Learn to listen dobe." He smirked
"I am not a dobe!"
"I have to object against that."
"Teme!"
"Are you hungry or not? If not I'll just leave."
"No! Wait, I-I am a bi-bit hungry…"
"I'll see what I can bring you."
"A-Arigatou!" Sasuke exited the room and headed for the kitchen. While he looked for it he wondered what had made him talk so…freely (at least for him) with the blonde and even offer to prepare him something to eat. He too had always thought he had seen the blonde before but he couldn't remember where or when. When he found the kitchen he couldn't believe his eyes. It was literally covered in cakes, pies, cookies and other deserts, deserts of all sorts, ones he didn't even know. 'Hoe the hell am I going to find something to eat in this mess?' Since he couldn't find anything that could be considered healthy he decided to go to a groceries store he had seen just around the corner. He told Naruto and asked for the keys of the house before leaving.
While Naruto waited for Sasuke he got a call from Kiba.
"What's up?"
"Yo, blondie, listen, I'm at the mall and I was wondering if you were good enough to come."
"Well…I don't need pain killers anymore…"
"Great! So I'll go pick you up."
"But Kiba, I can't go."
"Why?"
"Kakashi-sensei sent Sasuke-teme over." His friends had made sure he didn't call everyone Sempai because, well, they were in the same grade. He used to do it because the first day everyone (except Sasuke and Neji) had all made it very clear the first day of last year that he was to 'respect them'.
" huh? Heh, good one!"
"Um…don't tell him…"
"Why not?"
"Sakura and him will kill me…"
"Naruto-"
"Anyway, I gotta go, see ya tomorrow." He hung up. He decided he would go to eat a cookie or something. While he walked he kept complaining about 'Damn teme, what the hell taking him so long?' He was about to take a bite of the sweet when someone took it away from him. It was, oh joy, Suigetsu.
"Hey bastard I was going to eat that!"
"Not anymore."
"Hey how the hell did you get in tteba?"
"Found Sasuke at the store and nagged him enough to let me come."
"Wow, you can actually do that?"
"Yeah, you got cake…cakes!" He started devouring everything, Naruto wasn't complaining thought, he now knew how to get rid of so much sweet. He saw Sasuke enter the kitchen while rubbing hi temples.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah…" He somehow made space in the table and started preparing….god-knows what with god-knows….what. Suddenly someone knocked.
"I'll get it." The blonde slowly made his way to open the door. He had barely opened it an inch when someone glomped him. He screamed, it still hurt a lot when he put too much pressure on his ribcage.
"GET THE HELL OF TTEBAYO!" And get of he/she did.
"Sorry Naruto." That was Tayuya.
"Sorry, Naruto." And that was Menma.
Yeah, yeah why don't you stop apologizing and start HELPING ME UP TTEBA?"
"Sorry kiddo." Tayuya helped him up and placed him on the couch.
"Damn you people! Don't you know how to treat an injured person? It still hurts tteba!" He glared with all his might….but it wasn't much due to the pain.
"T-Tayuya?"
"Yeah?"
"Can you go to my room? There's a bottle of pills on the nightstand, bring them to me!"
"Ok." And she….jumped, skipped, whatever to the blondes room. When he entered she fell and started cursing like the world was ending. Mean while Sasuke had somehow finished whatever he was making and had put some of it in a plate. He and Suigetsu, who had his mouth full of cookies, headed to the where the blonde was. When he entered he wasn't surprised to find Menma there, there, considering he could hear the commotion he and an unknown person made Naruto make from the other side of the planet. He gave Naruto the plate and sat down beside him.
"A-Arigatou. Um, this is Menma. Menma, this is Sasuke and Suigetsu." Sasuke and Suigetsu looked at the other blonde male.
"Nice to meet you." He smiled.
"Same here." And Sasuke nodded. Naruto started eating.
"Wow this is really good!"
"Hn." "Uchiha." Naruto looked up from his plate.
"Oh, and that is Tayuya, Tayuya, this is Sasuke and Suigetsu ttebayo." Sasuke looked at the redhead that entered the room. She was glaring murderously at him. She handed him the pills.
"Thanks." He took one.
"Ne, you got any beer?"
"Um, I think Ero-sennin has some sake in the fridge."
"That'll do." She went and came back. She sat down in front of Sasuke.
"So, what are you doing here?"
"Ka-Kakashi sent him, you remember I told you about the martial arts club."
"Oh, yeah…" She, for some reason kept glaaring daggers at Sasuke, he simply ignored her and Naruto felt really uneasy. Suigetsu was silent, which was weird.
"Naruto-kun, have you been eating well?"
" Well, Tsunade-no-bachan put me on a…program, I don't need it anymore. And Konan keeps stuffing me…."
"And what about that job you told us about?" Naruto seemed to panic and started shaking his head desperately. Suigetsu saw this and took the opportunity to know about this job, who knows, it could possibly be something embarrassing.
"Oh, you didn't tell me you had a job, what kind of job is it?"
"He didn't tell you? Well do you know that cosplay café in the mall? Um, I think it's called 'De Point Bleu'." Suigetsu looked at Naruto who blushed and glared at him.
"You work there?" And he laughed.
"Don't laugh ttebayo!"
"Sorry, sorry, but it is kinda funny, I mean you are already kinda girly hehe."
"I'm not girly!"
"Yeah, and I'm in love with Karin."
"…" Naruto just stared at him.
"What?"
"You are."
"What?"
"I think you do like Karin."
"You-You are crazy!"
"Say I'm not girly."
"No." Naruto grabbed his cell phone and called someone. That someone picked up.
"Hi, Karin, it's Naruto."
"Hi, Naruto, what's up?"
"You see, Suigetsu want to say something."
"DON'T HEAR A THING HE SAYS, IT'S ALL A LIE" He was blushing, surprisingly.
"Well, he wants you to know that he-"Suigetsu took the phone.
"Hate you. Bye." He hung up. He glared at the laughing blonde.
"You are an evil blonde."
"Happy to know that." This continued for a while, Sasuke and Tayuya occasionally saying something but still being wary of each other. It was Until Sasuke and Suigetsu left that the redhead lightened up. Then when Jiraiya got home, Tayuya and the blonde left. Narruto went to his room, suddenly feeling very sleepy, he was already asleep when someone yelled.
"WHO THE HELL DRANK ALL MY SAKE?"
Everyone was happy to know that Naruto had actually started to lighten up at school, becoming more vocal and somehow being the only one that got Sasuke to say something more than 'Hn' although they didn't talk much, and when they did they fought, Sasuke rapidly ending the discussion with a 'Dobe' and Naruto ending it with a scream of 'Teme. They tried to get him to say how he had gotten the bruises but he wouldn't budge. Eventually everyone gave up. But they suspected it had something to do with Sakura and her boyfriend, Renji, so the boys took turns in following Naruto after school to make sure nothing happens.
"Na-Naruto-kun!"
"Yeah." It was HInata.
"Yo-You kno-know how ne-next month i-is Kiba-kun's bi-birtday?" She was blushing
"Yeah?"
"Wha-What do you think wo-would be a go-good present for hi-him?"
"Well, Hinata….He has been talking about getting a new skateboard."
"Re-Really?"
"Yeah. But get him one that has flames, could be green or pink doesn't matter."
"A-Arigatou Naruto-kun!"
"It's okay, ttebayo!" He grinned. The bell rang.
"I-I have to g-go, b-bye!" He watched as she did so. He liked her, they both had low self-esteem. He headed to his literature class.
"Naruto! Your late!"
"Yeah…..uh, sorry?"
"Just get a seat." And he did…next to Gaara. He was a bit tired so he laid his head down and when he put attention he only heard '…puppies.'
"What?" Iruka looked at him and sighed.
"I said that I will hand out puppies. It's a flour babies-like assignment, but instead of flour babies, puppies. But first you have to take an object from this box." He called some names before calling Naruto. He got a pink baby bottle. After the last student sat down, Iruka proceeded to explain.
"Everyone who has the same object is paired up. Blue is the father, pink is the mother. Exchange seats." Naruto looked in horror at his bottle. He snapped out of it when someone sat on Gaara's previously occupied seat. It was Sasuke. He immediately stood up.
"Wait, I'm paired up with the TEME? Besides I'm not a mother ttebayo!" He had definitely gotten more vocal. Ah, how friends, weird self named parents and crazy old guardians could affect you. He sat down with a quiet 'sorry' because of all the glares he received from every girl in the room, mostly Sakura.
"Before you say anymore, no changes."
"But what does puppies have to do with literature?"
"It will show you responsibility."
"But-" Iruka glared, Naruto shut up and Sasuke 'hned'.
said that they had to bring them every three days for a month and that if by the end of it they had taken extremely good care of them they got to keep them. They also had to make a photo album. Gaara had been paired up with a girl called Karu, Chouji with Ino. Everyone felt kinda sorry for Chouji.
"What are you going to name him?" Naruto was carrying the little sleeping puppy he and Sasuke had gotten like it was the most fragile thing in the world. It was white with some black or dark brown spots, one covering his left eye and ear.
"Maybe..."
"Nagashi." Sasuke had oh so kindly decided to tag along saying that Naruto could decide to choke the puppy with ramen. Naruto said that he wouldn't do that and Sasuke 'hned'…again.
"What? No!"
"Why not?"
"I want to name him Ranmaru."
"Why?"
"I don't know! I just like Ranmaru better!" But it had something to do with someone he couldn't quite remember.
"Nagashi."
"Ranmaru!"
"Nagashi."
"Ranmaru!"
"Nagashi." Damn Uchiha acting all cool and diabolic.
"Ranmaru, ttebayo!" They glared and everyone sweat dropped. They were very surprised when Sasuke came, walking alongside the blonde. They looked at Naruto and he explained everything saying one simple but evil word: Proyect.
With the yell of 'ttebayo' the puppy had gotten awake. Everyone watched as it yawned cutely and started looking around, finally concentrating on Naruto. Everyone had gone 'aaw' (well not everyone but still). Then they all started laughing when the little thing started gently biting the front of Naruto's shirt. Sasuke even dared to smirk, hey if he could make fun of the annoying blonde than he wouldn't let the opportunity pass. Gaara didn't but you could see it in his eyes. The laughter got louder when the blonde looked clueless and confused at them, or more like at Kiba.
"What tteba?"
"Haha, heh….well you see Naruto…..hehe, it's hungry…haha!"
"What does that have to do with this?" The little puppy continued sniffing and rubbing his mouth on him, like looking for something.
"Haha…ha…um..HAHAHAHA, er, you see, hehe…" He got up and went beside the blonde, he leaned down and whispered into the blonde's ear. In a second Naruto was redder than Kiba's red tattoos, which were pretty red, and started stuttering nonsense.
"Bu-but…..tha-that…I-I… h-he…..yo-you….!" He looked about to faint from embarrassment when Hinata spoke.
"Sa-Sasuke-kun may I-I?" She was pointing at the little blue bottle that he had. He nodded and handed it to her. She then filled it with Naruto's milk (He was the only one that had milk, he loved the stuff, not more than ramen but still loved it) and grabbed Naruto's limp hand and showed him how to feed the puppy.
He whispered a shy and embarrassed 'A-Arigatou…' and she just smiled. He looked at the other puppies. Chouji and Ino had named theirs Tamaki, he ate as much as Chouji and was as loud as Ino. Ino joined them that day because of the puppy. And that was pretty much how they spent their lunch hour. After a class full of Shikamaru 'teaching' lazily and then snoring, and some other more normal ones, Sasuke invited Naruto over so that they could plan how they were going to make the album and how they were going to split the work. So he called Jiraiya and everything was set.
They were in the ravens car and Naruto was playing with the puppy when he came up with a name for it.
"How about we name him Ton-Ton, like Tsunade-no-bachans pig , ttebayo?" Sasuke stopped at a red light.
"No." Naruto looked at him.
"Why not?"
"Because I don't want to." In reality he hated the name and the pig. He always went to Tsunade every time someone in his family, or him needed medical attention and every time he did the damn pig would bite him, oh how he would like to cook it alive.
"Then what are we naming him, we can't call him puppy forever."
"Nagashi."
"But why?"
"…I like that name…" It wasn't often Sasuke said he liked something so Naruto let him have his way. They finally made it to a huge front gate which opened when the security recognized the car.
"You're house is all gloomy, tteba!" Sasuke parked the car and got out, Naruto did the same. Sasuke opened the door and someone immediately glomped him. It was a black haired boy, about Naruto's age with orange eyes.
"Sasu-chan is back! Tobi missed Sasu-chan!" The boy then looked at him and hugged him. Naruto was happy to see that he wasn't so tall.
"Sasu-chan brought a friend! And a puppy!" Naruto looked at Sasuke and laughed.
"Sasuke-chan?" He glared.
"Yeah, Naru-chan." He smirked
"Touché." He smirked even more.
"What's his name?"
"Huh?" He looked at the happy boy hugging him.
"What's the puppy's name?"
"Oh, Nagashi."
"He's so pretty! Are you his mommy?"
"What? No, ttebayo!"
"Obito-chan! Sasu-chan and Naru-chan have a puppy and Naru-chan is his mommy and Sasu-chan his daddy!" Another boy that looked a lot like Naruto entered the room. He had red eyes, black hair, no scars and was taller. He was wearing orange goggles.
"The day Sasuke turns into a daddy is the day I'll stop wearing goggles." He opened his eyes and saw a pretty blonde haired girl gaping at him….but she was wearing a boys uniform…
"Hi pretty, what's your name?" Sasuke stared in shock when Naruto simply reached into his orange backpack and took out a pair of green goggles. Obito stared at the goggles, then at the blonde, then at the goggles and finally at the blonde again.
"You're green goggles boy?"
"Ye-Yeah!"
"Wow, cool!….but I thought you'd be taller…"
"Hey! I thought you'd be better than all the bastards I know, ttebayo!" Wow, he didn't stutter. Then it looked like the blonde remembered something and took out a copy of a book that Obito had written, a useless, in Sasuke's opinion, prank book.
"Hey, hey, can I ha-have your autograph? Please? ?"
" Of course Kid! And how about later you and me go make a prank to my grumpy cousin." He smirked and pointed to Sasuke. Naruto nodded and Sasuke looked at them suspiciously because, well, he didn't hear a thing. Obito took out a pen and the autograph the blonde wanted. "Any ways, I have to go, my editor doesn't leave me alone and wants to publish my new book already." Everyone said bye and he left.
"Can I hold him?"
"Huh?" He looked at Tobi, who was looking at him and the puppy.
"Oh, sure! Here, tteba!" He smiled and gave Tobi the puppy.
"You hungry?"
"No." Growl. "Yes…" Smirk.
"Come on." Naruto followed him to the kitchen. Sasuke opened the fridge and got out some juice. Then looked around.
"We got….spaghetti, chicken…pizza…"
"How about pizza?" Sasuke got six slices, placed them on a plate and put them in the microwave. While they waited for the pizza to heat up they saw Tobi and little Nagashi rolling on the floor. Naruto laughed.
"How strange…hehe."
"What do you mean?" He seemed…angered.
"Nothing, just…well he's a bit strange…" Just when Sasuke was about to yell at him Naruto spoke again. "I like him…he reminds me of someone…." Or he thought so because he couldn't remember who it was Tobi reminded him of.
"Ne, Sasu-chan, can Tobi have some juice?" Sasuke poured some in a glass.
"Here." He handed it to Tobi.
"Thanks!" He drank, let his glass on the counter and went to another room. He came back with a notebook.
"Ne, Naru-chan-" Naruto blushed heavily.
"Don't call me that!"
"Okay, Mommy-Naru!" He blushed even more.
"That either, ttebayo!"
"How about Mommy-chan?"
"No, call me Naruto! Just Naruto!"
"But Naru-chan is shorter!"
"Okay, just don't call me mommy!"
"Okay!" How happy he seemed, the evil devil. "Ne, Naru-chan, do you want to see my drawings?"
"Um…okay?" Tobi opened the notebook to a page where there was a Sasuke-looking chicken. He laughed. Then there was another one where there was a Sasuke-look-a-like, he was a weasel. The next picture showed Tobi sitting in a corner and someone yelling retarded at him. Naruto looked at Sasuke. He was glaring angrily at him, like daring him to say something. Now Naruto understood, his behavior, the drawings, the way he talked, everything. Tobi was….mentally challenged.
"This is my Otou-san and me." He pointed at that drawing.
"Oh…ne, Tobi do you like ramen?"
"Yes."
"How about next Friday you and me go get some to a place I know? If it's okay with whoever is in charge here." Tobi nodded happily.
" Is it okay? How about you come too?" Sasuke shrugged.
"You have to come Sasu-chan!"
"…Okay…" Tobi laughed, Naruto smiled and Sasuke 'hned'…AGAIN.
"…Hey what happened to the pizza?" It was cold…again. Sasuke re-heated it and they ate. After that they went to a huge TV room they had in that house. They had to watch The Teletubies seventeen times until they heard someone talk.
"It's been a long time since you brought someone over, otoutou…..especially a dog." The man picked up Nagashi and petted him. Sasuke looked annoyingly at him.
"Since my dear little brother doesn't want to introduce us, hi, I'm Uchiha Itachi." His eyes widened when he saw Naruto… he thought that boy had died….
"Hi, I-I'm U-Uzumaki Naru-ruto, tte-ttebayo!...Yo-You know…you lo-look very familiar…ha-have we me-met before?" And the stuttering attacks again.
"I don't think so…" 'Actually we have…'
"Oh…well nice to meet you, Itachi-san."
"Itachi is fine."
"Okay." They shook hands. It was decided that the next three days Nagashi was going to stay with Sasuke because Naruto had to clean the apartment, otherwise he could get lost in all the mess. Itachi said that Tobi could go eat with Naruto next week. So he said good bye to Itachi, Tobi, Nagashi and Sasuke and headed home.
