Chapter 3

"Naruto?" I heard Sasuke murmur quietly behind my back, it made me a bit uneasy at the tone. Considering what happened between us, I don't know what I was thinking, all my senses just shut down and I lost control when he was looking at me.

"Y-yeah Sasuke?" 'Damn, that made me sound like a girl.

"Naruto, don't move another step." He said rather apprehensively, so for my own safety I froze a still as a statue. The next thing that happened, happened almost too fast for my brain to convey.

"Sasu-?" my question cut short.

A kunai flew straight past my face, almost close enough that I felt the wind hit my face. It hit the ground directly beside my right foot, a huge log swang down past my face; I jumped back in shock, "Holy shit!" completely forgetting that Sasuke was behind me.

"Ow shit, Dobe." I slowly recovered, thanking that I landed on something soft and not the hard dirty ground, I turned up my head looking down at said mentioned soft thing, I mentally cursed at myself. 'Great I landed on the teme, no he will be angry'. My brain finally caught up with the situation, I looked down at Sasukes face, and it was so close I could feel his breath hit my face to mingle with my own laboured breath. A small blush situated it's self upon my cheeks.

"Uh… Dobe?" Sasuke mumbled.

"Yeah teme?" I replied.

"You can, uh, get off of me, ngh, now, I kind of can't breathe" he said quite rushed, as if in one single breath.

"Uh, oh shit, sorry teme, I didn't realise." A sheepish grin spread across my face as I got up. I rubbed the back of my head grinning at him.

Sasuke took a deep breath. 'Shit I thought Naruto was going to crush me… he's heavy...'

"Uh t-thanks Sasu." My eyes widened. 'Shit I said that out loud!' my brain screamed in panic.

Sasuke just stared at me, with an eye brow raised slightly. A small tint of pink to his cheeks.

"Hn, no problem Dobe." Sasuke said turning away at an agonisingly slow speed. Before quickly spinning to face me again. This time sporting his all famous Uchiha glare, of course this had no had effect on me.

"Next time." He paused.

"Yes?" I asked

"Be more careful, Dobe. There are far more traps ahead of us." His deep onyx eyes look almost warm as he looked back staring into my own cerulean ones.

I was clearly mesmerised by them, I couldn't turn away, my face heated up.

The teme just smirked all Uchiha-like and turned away again.

"Let's get going Dobe; we need to finish the mission." Naruto grinned at the back of Sasukes head.

Both boys started walking off again, Naruto slightly jogging to catch up to Sasuke.

Both boys blissfully unaware of the eyes that watched them from the shadows.

"You will be mine Sasuke-kun, kukuku" The dark voice chuckled.
