Hey all! I have no idea how long this chapter will be, but I have a list of what I want to include in this chapter so it follows the storyline that could change here and there … Thanks for the follows, favs, reviews and such! I really appreciate all the support! I'm also working on a new story, but it's in progress… you know.. in my mind. Although it's coming along really nicely and I can't wait to show you guys! Here's the summary: Before guns and tanks, wars in the ancient world were won by Shogun, powerful warriors who can control the natural energies in and around them. To the regular human eye they're invisible, only seen when they want to be seen. That's not the case for Sasuke Uchiha, who is able to see them just fine and comes across a blond man who is next in line to lead these warriors. Can he handle the truth behind the astonishing secret behind his ability to see these warriors and can the blond prince help him when he needs it the most?
He reached over, still feeling a buzz inside his head, to find that it was disappointedly empty yet still warm. Did he dream all of last night? Accidentally letting out a sigh mixed with sadness and disappointment he stood up and rubbed at his eyes.
"I didn't wake you up did I?" Sasuke whipped his eyes open and stared in disbelief as Naruto was standing just at the foot of the bed only wearing jeans that hung dangerously low. Sasuke looked away and fought back a blush.
"N-no," still not looking at the blond. He saw at the corner of his eyes that Naruto put on a shirt that looked strangely familiar.
"You don't mind if I borrow one of your shirts? Mine smells like vodka," Sasuke shook his not minding at all even though his shirt was extremely tight on Naruto which made his hard muscles stand out more.
"Naruto, about last-" Sasuke tried to talk to him but was interrupted.
"You hungry?" Naruto asked. "I was just about to grab us some breakfast. Although technically it would be called lunch since it's one in the afternoon." Sasuke looked at the time and it was true. It was already the afternoon. "So, are you hungry?" Sasuke's stomach answered for him making a gurgling noise. "I'll take that as a yes," Naruto grinned and opened the door to walk out only to stop by the person who was MIA last night.
"Naruto?" Neji questioned as he looked from the blond to Sasuke.
"Just getting us a bite to eat. Be right back," The blond swerved by him and down the hall leaving Neji glaring after him. Neji stepped inside the dorm room and closed to door behind him.
"Mind telling me what he was doing in here?" Neji asked his eyes raking over the room checking if Naruto stole anything.
"I.. I honestly don't know," Sasuke looked down at his sheets. "Last thing I remember was he was taking me to the room. I.. I asked him to stay." Neji sighed and sat down by Sasuke.
"I was at Gaara's," Sasuke picked up his head and stared in confusion at him. "It's not like that. God no. Don't make me sick," Sasuke rolled his eyes at Neji trying to be disgusted by Gaara. "We agreed that for the better of the student body that we be friends," Sasuke sat back wide-eyed. "Now, I know what you're thinking but it's only temporary."
"Why? Why are you doing it?"
"That my friend," Neji stared out the window. "Is a conversation for another time. I just came back to grab my books and head to class," Neji quickly grabbed his books and bolted out of the room before Sasuke could say anything. He noticed Naruto walking down the hallway and Neji stopped right in front of him.
"Yes?" said the blond.
"I hate you, you know that?" Neji glared at him.
"I've been told worse," Naruto shrugged.
"Just… Please don't hurt him," Neji looked down at the ground which caused Naruto just to feel a grain of sympathy for the brunette until it was gone as soon as it came. "You say it's for the best, but I just have this feeling that if you hurt him you're going to hurt everyone else around, including you." Naruto put his hand on Neji's shoulder and looked directly at him.
"That's not gonna happen. I won't get hurt. I'm a soulless leech of an asshole that no one will ever truly love. Remember?" Naruto recited the exact words he heard a year ago from the person in front of him. Neji sighed, removed Naruto's hand from his shoulder and walked away. "By the way, Gaara is waiting for you downstairs."
"Fuck you, Uzumaki," Neji growled at him still walking away.
"Been there, done that." Naruto shouted to him as he walked back into Sasuke's room seeing that Sasuke was laying down staring at the ceiling. Upon seeing the blond enter the room Sasuke sat up and noticed the two trays of food. "I hope you like ham and swiss," the blond smiled at the raven who hesitated in smiling back.
"Mr. Uchiha, your 2 o clock is in," the voice rang through the spacious office. Itachi Uchiha, who was CEO of the Sharingan Corporation, sat back in his chair looking out at the view from the top of his building. Everything in his office screamed expensive to the point that even looking at him would back you feel wealthy. He turned around in his chair and answered to his secretary to allow them in. He sat back in his chair and not even a moment later his expected company walked through the door.
"Quite a place you've got here," she smiled and flipped her red hair over her shoulders. Sometimes when she did it looked her hair was made of fire. "Although, it's not really my style," she come closer and sat on the desk while the Uchiha was staring at her entrance.
"Hello to you too, Kurama Namikaze," Itachi greeted her and started searching through the files at his desk.
"Don't call me that," Kurama warned the Uchiha.
"Right. You prefer Uzumaki, don't you?" Itachi said as monotone as he could. "I have always wondered why you and your brother never kept your father's last name. It's a very famous name you know."
"I have my reasons and he has his. Plus, fame isn't everything," Kurama pointed out.
"This coming from the woman who runs the largest crime organization this world has ever seen," Itachi also pointed out.
"Don't forget the only woman too sexy for an Uchiha," Kurama smirked and twirled her hair. It's true that the Namikaze's looks were up to par with the legendary looks of the Uchiha. Kurama could easily win the award for the sexiest woman on the planet by just walking into a room. The only person who has ever denied her would be the man sitting in the office chair across from her.
"You might not know this, but your brother has taken in interest in-"
"Sasuke Uchiha, your darling little brother. Ironic isn't it?" She interrupted him.
"So you know," he said to his surprise.
"Of course. I always keep tabs on my brother. I've got to say though, Sasuke is pretty cute."
"If he ever heard you say that he'll chop you up in pieces," Itachi chuckled.
"I'd like to see him try," Kurama grinned. "So, you called me in here to give him your blessing?"
"Quite the opposite," Itachi started. "Your brother has a notorious record of hurting those that get close to him."
"Aww, but it's the good kind of hurt. You know, the one that you've been dying to give me," Kurama pulled on Itachi's tie just a little and winked.
"Hardly," said and removed her hand from him. "Sasuke is the most percious thing to me in this world. I'm warning you, if your brother hurts him he'll feel the full force of my wrath."
"I think," Kurama walked around the desk and sat on Itachi's lap and whispered, "you should channel your wrath into having hot crazy wild sex with me." Itachi was about the break his stoic face for just a second before Kurama's phone started ringing. She was smiling while she got off and answered. "Did you do as I asked?" it took a moment before she smiled, not the one of happiness, but of one where you diabolical plan was going right. "Perfect." She closed the phone and fixed her hair.
"Leaving so soon?" Itachi said sarcastically.
"Sorry booboo, I'll be back later if you want to finish where we left off. You know how to reach me," she winked. "By the way, you need a new car. I don't like the color of your old one." She walked out of the office just as an explosion was heard outside. Itachi gave out a huge sigh as he saw his car burst into flames.
"What a bitch," he grabbed his jacket and headed out the door to give an excuse to the police.
"My favorite is watermelon and mango," Naruto said as they waited in line at Yoway with Sasuke looking at the different flavors of ice cream. Naruto had asked him if he wanted to get some ice cream, but Sasuke did not have a taste for sweets but reluctantly agreed to grab some just to taste. He didn't know what he was doing so he let Naruto drag him along.
"Is the red velvet any good?" Sasuke asked completely lost, but he heard the name red velvet somewhere.
"Um, I guess," Naruto looked at the flavor like it was a new type of species. "Maybe you can try it?" Sasuke sighed and put his cup under the pump and put just enough for a maybe a hamster to eat. Naruto burst out laughing.
"What?" Sasue turned to glare at him.
"Are you planning to get spoonful of every flavor they have?" he laughed.
"Don't be ridiculous that would be disgusting," Sasuke said.
"Then you need to get more," Naruto reached over and started pumping more ice cream into the cup until it was filled.
"W-what are you doing?" Sasuke looked at the cup as if Naruto just dropped an entire turkey out for him only to eat.
"Eat it," Naruto placed a hand on Sasuke's back and started pushing him to where the topping bar was.
"All of this goes on ice cream?" Sasuke studied the different types of toppings across the bar and it was a little overwhelming at first.
"Take one or two, or maybe three," Naruto chuckled. "It won't kill you."
"I sure hope not. Do you know how many calories these are?" Sasuke kept studying the topping while Naruto rolled his eyes. He grabbed a scoop of sprinkles and threw it on Sasuke's ice cream. "What if I didn't want that?" Sasuke asked Naruto.
"Too bad," he continued the push Sasuke to the register to pay for the ice cream. They walked onto campus and sat down at a nearby table. Sasuke hesitated at first but scooped up some of his ice cream and tasted it. He closed his eyes and Naruto swore he could hear him purr.
"Good?" Naruto asked.
"Surprisingly," Sasuke gave one of his rare, but small smiles and continued eating.
"You know," Naruto started in between his ice cream munching, "you should really smile more." Sasuke looked down at his ice cream for just a moment before shaking his head.
"There's not a lot to smile about."
"Well, there's being alive, ice cream, and us," Naruto smiled at the last part.
"Us?" Sasuke arched an eyebrow.
"Yeah, us," Naruto said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "We can't deny the way we feel about each other," Naruto got dangerously close to Sasuke was starting to have trouble fighting down a blush. "The truth is Sasuke," Naruto took one of his hands and made the other look right into his eyes, "I truly lik-" suddenly a tangled mess of blond was in between the two of them and Sasuke had to scoot back a bit so he wouldn't get hair in this ice cream. He saw who was interrupting them and it was a blond girl who looked fairly decent except she wore way too much make up and dressed over slutty like most of the girls at this school.
"So, Naru. About our date tonight. I was thinking Olive Garden or Red Lobster then we can go to your room like we always do," she was swaying her shoulders so her chest was bouncing everywhere.
"O-oh hey Yuki," Naruto said truly surprised. Sasuke scoffed and stood up. He couldn't believe he was fooled by the blond so easily. "Wait Sasuke," Naruto got up and grabbed Sasuke's arm.
"What?" Sasuke growled not even looking at the blonde. He didn't deserve that much.
"She's delusional. I just said hi to her while I was getting our lunch," Naruto told him.
"Just stop," Sasuke now turned his head and glared directly at Naruto.
"Sasuke I-"
"I can't stand you," Sasuke whispered low enough for Naruto can hear, but you could still hear the anger in his voice. "How dare you lead me on and play me. All of this was just another game wasn't it? I thought we really had something. That Neji was wrong about you. Apparently I was the one who was wrong."
"No Sasuke this isn't me."
"This is exactly who you are," Sasuke pointed at the whore still sitting at the table. "Maybe I could have tolerated you as a friend, but that just isn't enough for you is it?"
"Sasuke, I'd rather be your boyfriend than your friend," Sasuke let out a low growl and threw the contents of what was left in his cup on Naruto.
"Now you won't have to worry," Sasuke stepped back and yanked his arm away from the blond. "Cause you'll never be either."
