Chapter 7: New Found Love
The sound of soft knocking on the door ringed in the empty residence, the owner carefully put his cup down on the table and stood up to answer the door.
"I-I wonder if he'll like this?" the waiting boy outside murmured as he look at the dress he is wearing and blushed. "That must be him." He said excitedly, he tucked his hair long hair behind his ears before he fixed his dress just before the excited Kazuma opened the wooden door.
The brunette was faced with a flushed Kiyoshi wearing a cute pastel pink dress that ends 5in. below his knees with thin white under laying that stopped just below his knees. It also was off shoulder so it exposed his smooth pale shoulders and long neck and a long pale pink sash was tied on a single knot on his slender waist for decoration. He also wore a silver heart-shaped necklace, a pink ribbon that matched his hair color on his wrist he also wore pink sandals to finish the outfit.
Kazuma literally stopped breathing when he saw his face, his face was beautiful even without make-up, face flushed with a nice shade of red, lips glossier than before and his long hair was neatly held back by a pink headband except for his bangs. 'He's like a-a delicate flower, brightening up my world!' the handsome male smiled.
The redhead blushed at the stare the older male was giving him, he was somewhat glad that he liked the outfit although it was embarrassing! "Uh…um…I-I br-brought you l-lunch…" he shyly held out a neatly packed lunch, he blushed madly as looked away before he could see the other teen's reaction.
"Um, thank you." He took the lunchbox offered to him and smiled in return for the meal, a light blush adorned his cheeks. "I…uh…do-do you want to come in?" the blush on the redhead became more darker if possible as he nodded timidly before walking inside before Kazuma followed and locked the door. "Would you like some tea?" He asked and gestured the smaller male to sit on the sofa and proceeded to the kitchen to make some tea when he saw him nod.
Kiyoshi stared at the mansion with awe, everything was clean and furnished despite the fact that the only one that live here was his bestfriend, his heart thumped sadly at that. He continued to look around, he saw various furniture decorations and paintings. 'Whoa…they all look expensive…' he thought amazed by their riches, he always knew Kazuma was rich but he didn't know that they were 'that' rich! Suddenly he felt that he didn't belong there, he didn't fit there, Kazuma was beyond his level not only in skill level but also in social status. He sighed, he felt like he didn't deserve somebody like Kazuma.
"Kiyoshi?" the brunette called, in an instance he redheaded beauty was right in front of him grinning widely. The topaz-eyed teen settled the tray on the low wooden table and poured some tea on the porcelain cup. The excited Kiyoshi happily plopped on the couch, grabbed his cup, and started drinking even though it was very hot. It wouldn't be delicious if it was cold anyway. Kazuma followed the suit while he observed his beautiful flower drinking from the corner of his eye. "Girls made you wear their clothes again?" he asked unexpectedly, in fact it was so unexpected that the redhead was almost choked by the tea.
Ever since Kiyoshi had gotten over Yuki, he had been wearing girls' clothes saying that the girls forced him to wear them, because of their vague reason. Although the truth was he asked them to help him look better than before, he didn't agree at wearing girls clothing at first, but he figured that maybe Kazuma would like him more in girls clothes.
He wanted to looked good in front of Kazuma, he wanted the other to love him more although he doesn't know why he was sure he wanted it. For the past few days he felt happy hell he felt happier than he'd ever been and he wanted to keep his happiness with him forever, he wanted to be with Kazuma forever. Well…he is still confused with he is feeling right now but he was sure as hell that he felt happy just being with his best friend, he easily forgot his troubles and problems when he was with the brunette. He liked the other's presence, his smiles, his comforting voice, his touch, his kisses…his everything. His conclusion? He like Kazuma.
Coughed out the stuck tea from his throat before he blushed yet again, he drank the remaining of his tea to hide his bright blush. "Uh, yeah…"
"They did a good job." The brown-eyed redhead saw a smile ever so charming smile of his bestfriend, he never would have thought that his friend was brimming happiness because he like the way the redhead looked.
"I guess…" he refilled his cup as he answered thoughtfully, he was really thankful that he was particularly close with the girls-because of his girly looks-, he silently thanked the girls as he drank his tea again, they are the ones that lent him this dress, after all.

"Wh-why the hell are going with me?! Moreover, why the hell is your hand around my waist?!" she calmly asked though there was and obvious vein twitching on her forehead and her eyebrows are meeting.
"Because you're mine." Sasuke held his precious blonde more secure in his arms as they walked down the road leading to Yamanakas' flower shop. they were supposed to help Ino there because of the incident-when Naruto got sick before he became a girl-last time they weren't able to help Ino in the shop, so as compensation they have to help today and this time they have to work extra hard. Or else Ino would make sure it's the last day of their lives!
"Wh-who the fuck told you that?!" the blonde blushed as she sputtered the question, people looked at them with questioning eyes. I bet they were saying 'What a bad mouthed girl!' fortunately for them the blonde ignored them.
"Hn." The Uchiha glared at another guy who was trying to get close to his azure eyed blonde. The number of the men who were trying to get close to Naoko were increasing and they became more bolder. Seems like Sasuke hugging the blonde girl isn't enough proof that she is already owned. Pale arms tightened their hold on the slim waist making Naoko stumble forward and crush her lips on the taller male. She blushed hard but she didn't pull back, she didn't want to admit it but she like it when the boy kissed her. But not in public!
She pulled back abruptly from the kiss after what seems like a forever, why didn't she realized sooner that they were on a public road?! "B-B-B-B-BASTARD!!!" she shouted so that the whole wide world could hear just what kind of bastard his so called boyfriend was. She was blushed madly as stomped her foot to their destination, muttering curses along the way. Sasuke simply smirked. She gritted her teeth silently as she fought the urge to smack the Uchiha. 'Can't he stop being a bastard for even a minute?! I swear this bastard is going to get serious beating when I'm done with him!' she was already forming unimaginable ways to torture her raven…wait…her raven?! 'I never said that…did I?'
She glanced at the emotionless raven occasionally glaring at some guys who still tried to court the cute blonde. She smiled to her self as she remembered the days she spent with the Uchiha since they had their second kiss. It was annoying, angering and embarrassing filled days, but despite all that, she had fun, felt happy and so much more. It was also less tiring than before, she didn't have to deal with numerous fanboys because Sasuke would always protect her and hold her secure-although that was also due to his possessiveness-. She never felt like this before, she would blush everytime the raven would hug or kiss her, butterflies always made their way to her stomach when she thought of him, she felt like smiling at just about anything the raven would do. Her heart would beat rapidly merely because he is near and most of all he wouldn't leave her mind for even a whole minute. She had a very long list of what the older male make her feel but one thing is for sure though…she loved him.
"Oi! Dobe you're going the wrong way!" Sasuke pointed out when he caught his beautiful azure eyed blonde wondering off the right path.
"Huh?" Naoko was surprised to find herself at the wrong road, she was too lost on her own thoughts to even pay attention to the road she was walking, she blushed slightly before walking again. "I-I was just t-testing you!" She saw the raven roll his eyes sarcastically from the corner of her eye. 'This bastard's gonna pay! Big-time!!!' she was burning with anger and her head was visibly emitting steam because her of her contained anger.

"That…!" Kiyoshi quickly ran to the direction of the couple walking by the street.
"Wait! Kiyoshi…!" the brunette hurriedly ran to catch up with the redhead who was actually running faster than he'd ever seen. "What's the problem?!"
"I-I have to talk to that girl!" the shorter male hurriedly replied as he looked back for a moment but did not stop running.
"Huh? Who? Why?" Kazuma asked worriedly curious as to what the younger male was so hurried for. What the world is happening?!
"The blonde! It's important!" Kiyoshi snapped as he frantically ran to look for the girl he was after. 'She's gone again…' he thought dejectedly as he stopped to breath for a moment 'I can't give up now!'. She's…the one…the boy…that drank…the…" he panted but the other quickly understood and nodded, he also helped look for blonde hair and blue eyes.
'I've got to help him find her!' the older thought determinedly. "There she is!" he proclaimed as he pointed to the blonde girl surrounded by boys.

"Naoko-chan!"
"Nao-chan! Marry me!"
"Naoko your so cute!"
"Naoko-chan! Be mine!" the couple simply ignored the boys shouting to get the blonde's attention however for those who tried to get too close, only death-from Sasuke-would await them.
"Sasuke-kun!" a fangirl shouted. Oh, I almost forgot! Sasuke also have fangirls! Sasuke glared all the more.
"Sasuke-san! I'll bear your children!"
"Sasuke-sama! You're so hot!"
"Sasuke-kun! I love you!" the blonde felt a tinge of jealousy at that.
"Break up with that bitch!" Sasuke growled at them, all the fans backed away from the angry raven. But after he turned away to continue their long journey to the flower shop, they all came back shouting again. Don't they ever get tired?!
"Please let us though I need to talk to them!" a voice oddly pleaded from a far.
"Huh?" Naoko looked to the left where she saw an arm waving frantically at her, finally the owner of the arm was revealed, they kneeled down-at the very front line of the fans-and panted for a moment-going though a crowd of crazy fanboys and fangirls no joke ya know!-. "You're that…!" she gasped, she covered her mouth quickly before she could sprout another word. 'I wasn't supposed to recognize them!' of course she met when she was still a boy! She nervously looked at the raven that still had his emotionless look on his face, it was as if he knew everything. Although that was impossible, no one would have guessed that the loud annoying boy Uzumaki Naruto transformed into the oh so famous hot and sexy Naoko-chan because of a potion.
The reddish haired girl together with her yellow-eyed companion ran closer to them and begged. "I-I need to talk to you! Please it's important!" surprisingly the Uchiha didn't mind them stepping closer to them. "In private!" she hastily added seeing all of the fans and most importantly the older girl's lover. 'This is huge trouble.'
"O-okay…" the sapphire-eyed girl hesitantly replied and silently asked Sasuke for permission although she didn't know why she would need it. Surprisingly enough the Uchiha nodded and glared again at the fanboys and girls. They quickly ran into the nearest corner to hide where they were quite confident that other people wouldn't pass until their conversation is over. While the boys came to silent agreement and both glared at the fanboys who tried to get near the alley the girls entered.
"Kazuma, Musashi Kazuma." The brunette said.
"Uchiha Sasuke." Sasuke replied.
o~o~0~o~o
Both of the girls breath first, being surrounded by crazy people was also suffocating. "I'm Masako Kiyoshi." The reddish haired girl said before holding out her hand.
"Uzumaki Naru…I mean…my name is Naoko." Nervously took the hand and shook it smiling fakely to cover up her mistake. "Isn't your name for a boy?" she asked genuinely curious, Kiyoshi sweat dropped at that.
"First, if you must know I'm a boy." He redhead said waving her index finger as if lecturing somebody while Naoko obediently sat. Naoko simply blinked at that before she observed the girl…I mean…boy's clothing before looking back at his face, Kiyoshi sighed and answered the unvoiced question. "I borrowed clothes from my friends so I would look good for…" he trailed off as he blushed because of what he was about to say.
The blonde just nodded, she wouldn't force the boy if he didn't want to say it. "More importantly what do you want to talk about?" she softly said so no one would hear.
The younger boy cleared his throat and gulped, he didn't want to admit it but he was nervous of what will be the blonde's reaction after this conversation. "Okay, I know that you're a boy."
Naoko covered her gasp with her hands but her eyes were still wide from shock. "H-h-how did you…?"
"Actually, there was this person that I really liked for a really long time but I knew that he like girls so…I made a potion that would turn me into a girl. I was hoping that he would like me back when I become a girl but I didn't know he already has a fiancé…I know he really loves his fiancé so it was pointless to become a girl." the redhead looked sad for a second but he smiled, he has Kazuma now and he is happy to have him. "But I have gotten over it already, now I know that he won't love me even though I'm the most beautiful girl on earth besides if ever he'll like me back it won't be true. I also figured that I loved him as a brother and not like a…." The blonde girl nodded in understanding.
"So you're the one who made it…but how did I end up being a girl?" Naoko asked a bit angry but she willed herself not to shout at the boy until he had finished his explanation.
"Well…I'm not really sure but…do you remember the day when we bumped to each other?" a nod. "I think I accidentally gave you my bottle that contains the potion because I was in a hurry. I'm sorry I didn't mean it! I didn't know!" he almost shouted before he bowed his head and tightly closed his eyes preparing for the blonde's wrath.
"I forgive you, I know you didn't mean it." Her anger dispersed, she smiled at the teary-eyed redhead before asking again.
"Thank you!" Kiyoshi smiled back as he felt a large weight was lifted from his shoulders. But still…there was something bothering him…
"Hey! How did you know that I was the boy you bumped?" she asked again, fearing that others might have already figured about her unexpected sex change.
"At the restaurant when your friends left you for an hour I heard you not to mention your gold hair and azure eyes…I was going to tell you but you already left with your friends. Then I never saw you again up until today." He tilted his head to the side thoughtfully before he smiled again. "Umm…about your lover…does he know that you're a boy?"
"He's not my LOVER! And no he doesn't…" she said off handedly waving her dismissingly although her heart is now facing a dilemma. "Can you make an antidote for the potion?" she asked distractedly.
"Yeah! Of course I can, but by the time I finished it you would most probably have returned into a boy…Oh…anyway I have to go! I promised Yuki we would meet him today!" Kiyoshi said cheerfully before moving out of the alley together with Naoko. Once they had gotten out, they saw Sasuke and Kazuma sitting on a bench in a near-by shop drinking tea, all of the fanboys and girls were all gone from sight.
They both sighed in relief before walking to the boys who also noticed them, both stood up before going with their own partner. They waved their goodbyes before going to their original destination.
Soon they had safely gotten to the shop without any further more interruptions from fanboys, fangirls and Sasuke, however the raven worriedly but silently watched Naoko who was obviously distracted after her conversation with that redhead. Although she tried to hide it behind her fake smiles, it was crystal clear as day to Sasuke.
'What is bothering her?' he worriedly thought before approaching the blonde when they were allowed to have short break due to Choji complaining that he didn't have anymore energy. "What happened?" he asked unable to keep his worry from his voice, he cupped the girl's cheeks in his palm before looking directly at her clouded blue eyes.
"What are you talking about? Nothing's the matter! You better get your eyes checked, you're seeing things now…" she smiled sadly at him and her voice was slightly shaking despite her efforts to make it cheerful. After that, they continued to work as if the conversation did not happen. Sasuke sighed for the nth time today.

Comments? Suggestions? Corrections? Requests? Any violent reactions? Please tell me.
A/N: I hope you guys liked Naoko and Kiyoshi's outfit cuz I had a really hard time thinking it over, if not then I have a really bad fashion sense. About the first scene, I did it twice cuz I'm a little confused what to write so forgive the mistakes if you see them and please inform me so I could fix it. Thanks so much for those who reviewed!
Explanations!(I don't want to keep on editing A/N's so I'll write here all possible questions):
1. In the last chapter the reason why Kiyoshi and Naoko allowed to be kissed because they also unconsciously loved Kazuma and Sasuke.
2. SasuNao kiss in public-Naoko liked it that Sasuke kissed her but she didn't realized that they were in public until it was too late.
3. Sorry for not writing the scene when Kiyoshi had gotten over Yuki.
