Loving a Stranger

Chapter 3

Sasuke P.O.V.

I woke up to the sound of yelling.

"Kakashi stop, we can't do this here! That kid Sasuke is in the next room and could wake up any minute and hear us!"
"Well by the way your yelling now I'd say he's already woken up." the voice of the person said calmly.

I slowly sat up in bed and heard footsteps coming towards the door. The door opened and in stepped a browned haired man with a scar across his nose and behind him was a man with silver hair and a mask thing covering most of his face except one eye. I just stared at them confused on who they were and where Naruto was.

"Oh sorry did we wake you up?" the brown haired man asked. I just continued to stare at the man in confustion.

"Oh you're probably wondering who we are sorry, well I'm Iruka and this is Kakashi! Naruto asked us to watch you while he went to work but I'm sure he should be back around maybe six tonight." the man called Iruka said.

So Naruto already went to work and now I'm alone all day with these two, just great.

"Well since you're up I'll go get breakfast started for us!" he said walking out of the room leaving me and this Kakashi guy alone in the room. Kakashi looked over at me and walked over to the bed and feeling slightly uncomfortable a moved away from the side of the bed he was standing at.

"So you're Sasuke, I heard you were homeless and didn't have any family. What happened to them?" he asked.

"They died." I said slightly annoyed.

"Really? How did they die?"

"That's none of your business." I said getting angry at his questions.

"Your last name is Uchiha right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"No reason." He said and then walked back out of the room and left me alone.

Why was that guy asking me all those questions about my family? Did he know them or something? He does seem familiar somehow but I can't seem to place it. Oh well I guess it doesn't matter but I still don't trust him.


I sat in the living room with Iruka and Kakashi watching some movie, I wasn't really paying attention to it. I was more focused on when Naruto would come home, it's not that these two were boring even though they kind of were, although I have yet to find out what's up with this Kakashi guy. Maybe he knew my family when they were alive. But then wouldn't he already know if they were alive or not?

Oh well I'm not going to worry about it right now, so what time is it? I looked over at the clock on the wall and saw it was 5:30 p.m., Naruto would be home soon. For some reason that made me feel better, why should I care about him anyways...But that dream I had last night has got me thinking.

Why would I have a dream about him like that, I mean he's a good friend but...wait did I just say friend! I've never had a friend before, do I really consider him a friend even though I've only known him for about a day... I guess maybe he could be a friend.
And as I leaned back into the couch I suddenly felt tired, slowly closing my eyes I fell asleep.


Naruto's P.O.V.

"Naruto are you getting ready to leave?" Sakura asked as she walked up to me.

"Yeah, I'm just getting some pain medicine for Sasuke. It should help the pain and heal him a little faster." I said taking the bottle of pills and putting them in my pocket.

"Well I'm leaving too so I see you on Monday right, you have the weekend off don't you?" she asked.

"Yeah I do, if Sasuke is feeling up to it we'll probably go get him some clothes this weekend."

"You sure are doing a lot for this kid. Why is that?"

"I don't know, he just seems to need some help in his life and I want to be the one to do that!" I said grinning at her.

"Are you sure that's the only reason Naruto?" she said giggling.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Come on Naruto you know what I mean, you like him don't you?"

"What!" I yelled surprised.

"Don't worry I think it's cute Naruto, well I got to go see you later." she said walking out the front doors leaving me behind still shocked and confused. What did she mean by I like him! I don't even know him that well so how could I like him! I don't like him like that, do I?


I unlocked and opened the front door to my apartment and looked around to see Kakashi, Iruka and a sleeping Sasuke on the couch watching the end credits of a movie. I walked over there and Iruka got up at hearing me come over.

"Naruto your home, how was work?" he asked smiling.

"It was ok but I can't wait to get to bed." I said grinning at him.

"Well we'll just be leaving now, it seems Sasuke fell asleep during the movie." he said looking over at the sleeping boy.

"Don't worry about it all take care of him, you two can go home now."

"Okay bye Naruto we'll see you tomorrow." he said and Kakashi got up and walked out the door saying his goodbye as he left.

I sighed as I walked over to the couch and bent down and lightly shook Sasuke trying to wake him up.

"Sasuke wake up, you need to sleep in your bed this couch can't be comfortable." I said shaking him some more, but all he did was groan and move a little not waking up. I realized that I wasn't going to get him to wake up so I reached out and picked him up bridal style and he leaned his head against my chest and his hands grabbed my shirt. I walked him back to his room and tried to lay him down on his bed but his grip on my shirt just tightened.

I tried to pull his hands off without waking him up but eventually gave up and moved him over a little and laid down next to him. I looked at his face and noticed he had a peaceful expression and smiled at his sleeping face.

I couldn't help but reach over and pull him in my arms closer to me. He snuggled his head in my chest and sighed in his sleep. Maybe I do like him I thought as I looked down at him and smiled as I slowly fell asleep.


Sasuke's P.O.V.

I slowly opened my eyes blinking a couple times to clear my vision and looked in front of me to see a bright orange shirt. I was shocked by this and pulled back only to be stopped by the arms around my waist. Please tell me it's not who I think it is. I looked up and came face to face with blonde hair and a peaceful Naruto's face.

I stared at him wondering why he was sleeping with me with his arms around me and I was holding onto his shirt? When did he get home? All I remember was falling asleep on the couch and now I'm in my bed and he's with me.

Okay, now I just have to get out of his arms...

I removed my hands from his shirt and tired to escape but his hold only tightened on me and it didn't seem like he was going to let go anytime soon.

I sighed as I knew I would have to wake him up for him to let me go, cause I really needed to get up and go to the bathroom.

"Naruto...Naruto wake up." I said shaking him, he groaned and slowly his eyes opened and his bright blue eyes so close to me was making my heart beat faster. What is this feeling? He stared at me for a minute still half asleep, until he noticed the position we were in and let go sitting up with a slight blush.

"Sorry about that, when I came home last night you wouldn't wake up so I carried you back to your room and you kind of wouldn't let go of my shirt so I just slept here." he said laughing nervously.

Oh so that's why...I guess it's kind of my fault he had to sleep with me.

And the thought of him sleeping with me all night holding me like that made me blush. I just nodded to him and got off the bed walking towards the bathroom slowly since my legs were still pretty sore. He seemed to notice my pain as I walked.

"Oh yeah I just remembered, I brought you some pain medicine for you so when you're done in the bathroom I'll give it to you!" He said walking out of the room and into the kitchen.

I once I finished in the bathroom I went into the kitchen and sat down at the table and Naruto came over and placed two pills and a glass a water in front of me smiling.

"Here you go! This should help with the pain!" He walked back over to the stove and went back to fixing breakfast. I put the pills in my mouth swallowing them down with some water before turning to look at Naruto. What was that feeling this morning when he was looking at me with those beautiful blue eyes...wait beautiful? Since when did I think that?...But I guess I have to admit that they are beautiful. But does that mean I like him.

I watched as he walked over with two plates in his hands and he sat down a plate in front of me, sitting down and started at his own plate. I watched as he ate his food and he looked up noticing I hadn't started eating and said something.

"Hey are you okay? Aren't you hungry?" he asked with worry in his voice.

"Yeah sorry." I said looking down and started eating but I didn't miss that bright smile he smiled at me which made me smile slightly back.

Maybe I do.
