"well when we get break just wait at the door, seeing that you're there anyway" he turned his head over his shoulder slightly and smirked. He held out his closed fist and gestured their "hand shake" to the blue eyed mute. The timid fist met Sasuke's, he gave Naruto a small friendly smile and turned away, making his way to the seat in the back...'surrounded by dreadful girls'...sigh sasuke dropped into the seat and rested his head on his folded arms, his obsidian eyes staring out the window beside him.

-end of reminder-

Azure eyes followed the raven haired boy up towards the seat at the back. The blonde mute then turned his head in time to see Iruka enter the class with new class materials.'We're going to learn new stuff already!'

The brunette walked over to his desk placing the papers down neatly in a folder, for now. He was just about ready to start the classwhen he realized noone saw him come in. "Class, time to start!" the chattering girls at the back continued while the boys infront of them bickered and fought one anthor.

"CLASS! ATTENTION NOW!" Iruka wasn't the happiest camper today no siree. He was worried about Nauruto, and Kakashi was on a mission for the next few days. The class continued still. "QUIET! NOW, NEW SEATING ARRANGEMENTS WILL BE MADE!" the class fell silent. "Thank you!" Iruka rubbed the bridge of his nose lightly trying to get rid of his newly found headache. "All right, the seating arrangements will be as follows. Sakura your beside... Hinata! Ino, you're beside Shikamaru and chouji! Kiba beside Shino.

Tenten Beside Neji."(the rest of the losers in the class) "And finally Sasuke you will sit by Naruto!"

Sasuke's dark eyes lifted up, gazing at Iruka with agreeable eyes. "Hn. I don't mind, they're a bunch of loonies anyway" his voice was flat. He got up and gathered his things, his head swiveled around once more before he bounced down the stairs, his feet barely touching the ground as his eyes gleamed with gratefulness. 'Thank god' he grumbled in his head as he took the seat closest to the window, next to his blonde haired companion. He turned his torso to face Naruto, whose head rested lazily on his folded arms and his eyes gazing forwards. "Yo" Sasuke chimed, smirking brightly at Naruto. Naruto lifted his head, his eyes gleaming. Sasuke smiled. "Be ready for the test tomorrow, today is review, so you better actually pay attention dummy" he said as he smiled before turning back to his desk.

Sakura watched jealously as Sasuke talked quietly to the silent boy next to him, having a completely normal conversation, without Naruto replying. Her inner voice growled and snarled, her eyes blood red. "HOW COULD HE?! THAT GUY IS SOO DEAD WHEN I GET HIM ALONE! MY POOR SASUKE! TRICKED BY THAT DECEITFUL LITTLE RUNT!! HE'LL PAY FOR THIS!!' she steamed silently, her arm hairs prickled, like the moment before a hazardous storm.

-00-

Iruka sighed, combing his fingers through his hair tiredly. The day was over, the reviews were completed and handed in, even by Naruto. 'That Sasuke boy's getting to Naruto..his smile gets bigger everyday, maybe soon...' his thoughts trailed off as the last two students zoomed out of the class. The colorful whirls pushed past him, he made out Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki. The golden blonde had the biggest grin on his face, Iruka smiled warmly as he stepped out of the academy and raced to the field, where they would continue their game until it was time to come back in. He smiled and walked back into his classroom, his thoughts pouring over the odd friendship between the top student and the lowest student. 'So different, but their bonds together seem to strengthen constantly...' he thought as he softly closed the door, it was followed by a click and a dull thud.

"Look at him, look how stupid he looks" Sakura grumbled as she watched the orange jacket whirl by past her and the group of fangirls watching for Sasuke. She made it her commitment to glare at him every time they crossed paths, locked eyes. She hated him for stealing Sasuke from her. "Today after school, I'm going to beat the kid senseless!" she exclaimed to her friends. they all nodded in grim agreement. she glared hard and steady, like a careening train ready to run some poor civilians over.

Sasuke grinned brightly as the wind blew through his hair. His legs pumped eagerly, the ball was in his control. Suddenly he got side swept, Naruto's leg shot out and stole the ball, and ran the other way. "Damn it" he growled as he sprinted after Naruto quickly, his eyes locked on the blonde messy hair. He heard the fangirls boo and complain when Naruto got the ball, it made Sasuke's heart sink, Naruto didn't deserve any of this but all Sasuke could do was tell the loopy girls to back off. He shook away his troubled thoughts and focused on getting the ball, he wouldn't loose to Naruto, there was no exception.

The yellow blur sped towards the soccer goal but just as he was about to score a goal, he saw a mouse run in front of him. He stopped in his tracks not wanting to hurt the small creature. He knew exactly what it felt like. Sasuke stopped a little ways behind him. 'He must think somethings wrong.' Naruto thought to himself. the corners of his lips curled up into a soft smile. He kneeled down and picked the small mammal up and held it to his chest gently. The blonde scurried off the soccer field and released the mouse into the forest. He looked back at Sasuke who looked worried. He ran back towards his only true friend. Sorry Sasuke! The mouse, I didn't want to step on it by accident! Naruto's cheeks were flushed partially from their running around the field for fifteen minutes. The other reason was far more dangerous. The blonde's eyes fell shut, His body went limp. He was on the ground in seconds.

"He's currently low on chakra, he'll be fine. Alright?" A thin red headed school nurse said softly.

"No! It's not fine! You're going on break in ten right? I have to go back and tend to my class and Naruto's going to be left here alone! I don't think that's fine do you?!" Iruka argued sadly. Sasuke was silent beside him.

"Well Another nurse will be here in ten minutes, so don't worry he'll be under constant supervision. And it's a good thing this young man got him to me in time otherwise he'd be in alot worse condition." She ruffled the young boys hair. well now I'm sure you're both needed to start the class."

"Yeah.. Let's go Sasuke!"

Naruto had been drifting in and out of consciousness for an hour. He looked around and saw Iruka and Sasuke leaving the room. He started panicking. He sat up right, terrified.

What's going to happen next? Sorry it was short! hmmn, Well I hope you enjoyed. R&R!
