Chapter 6

Disclaimer: The title Naruto and anything that has to with it belongs to Kishimoto-sensei. But Uzumaki Naruto's ass belongs solely and wholly to the great Uchiha Sasuke.

Sorry I haven't replied to some of you. But thank you so much for the reviews! I enjoy them. So here's another chapter for all of you ^^


Maybe this was one of those shows where you were set up in a very uncompromising situation. The tension's getting into you and slowly killing you, you could not wait for all of this to end now. You just want to get out and just when you were on the verge of peeing in your pants, the host gets out from somewhere and yells, "Gotcha!" in your face.

If this really was only a show. Sadly this was real life and reality bites you ten times harsher than a piranha in your butt.

Naruto had kissed Sasuke. That was the reality of his life.

He was confident that the raven would never know his identity. He was supposed to remain as the unknown stranger that kissed the actor in the middle of the shoot once upon a time. But because of a bad stroke of luck, Sasuke discovered, named and pointed Naruto as the anonymous kisser. Instead of being disgusted by the blonde's deed, he entered this class and sat behind him. And worst, he made that stupid declaration.

"I want your kiss. I want more of it."

Is this his idea of a past time? A stupid game of kisses to kill boredom?

He turned his head and glared at the raven-haired boy. It was all for a naught because all he could see were the backs of the girls flocking around him.

"I have been your fan since you had begun your career, Sasuke-kun," Sakura giggled and from the spaces between the girls, Naruto saw her scoot closer to the stoic boy. He quickly looked away from the scene, afraid of losing his control and breaking that expressionless handsome face.

"He can't even smile for her," Naruto mumbled, "What's so good about him besides his looks, fame and intelligence? His attitude is surely as good as a rotten and stinking tomato."

"Well, I have been collecting every Sasuke-related item that there is in existence," Ino's voice piped in. he could imagine her flipping that long hair of hers.

"And I have the oldest item which I traded you for my antique Victorian doll. Take that, Pig!"

"Give me that candy wrapper back!"

The blonde felt a painful tug in his chest. Sakura gave up a doll that was probably a heirloom passed from her grandmother for a candy wrapper. At times like this, he realizes how little he means in the girl's life. He had been rejected so many times that he could not remember how many times his heart felt that it was being trampled by a hundred bisons.

Rejection was a bitter pill he had swallowed so many times ever since he had fallen in love with the girl.

He kept holding on to a love that never had rooted from the time it had been sown.

He was holding onto something that never had foundations.

ooooo

Fame and fortune comes with a price.

The price for Sasuke's lot were gushing and giggling fan girls. He held firmly on his excellent control to avoid banging his head on his desk in annoyance. That would be very un-Uchiha like. What he would give up right this instant to learn a teleportation technique so he could disappear. And then reappear in front of Naruto and drag the boy into a fan-girl free zone to enjoy Naruto all to himself.

How he wish for that reality right now. If there would be a scale to measure on how you level in a person's acquaintance level, Sasuke would be way behind the rear in Naruto's. However, he had made a vow to make the blonde his and he would see to that to the very end.

For the love of the blonde, he would resort to what some of his crazed and obsessed fans did to him once.

Uchiha Sasuke would be a stalker.

ooooo

The sun rose up once again.

Kiba was playing with Akamaru and wearing oversized sunglasses. Shikamaru was napping, Chouji was eating and Naruto was back to joking and laughing.

Everything seems normal again, the blonde concluded.

The only new thing was the flock of girls in the back of the room. They usually gather in the front to have their girl-talk, which is mainly about boys and Sasuke. Now all that they were talking about was Sasuke and Sasuke in front of the actual Sasuke.

"Naruto, is that –?" Kiba almost dropped his humanimal brother in astonishment when he caught sight of the actor occupying the seat behind the seat of the blonde.

"I think the pandas are in place, aren't they?" the blonde smiled so sweetly that it made Kiba shut up. He had a hard time explaining to his mom how he managed to slip in the school's mini-barn while cleaning and injuring the same spot twice.

"Shikamaru, why were you absent yesterday?" Naruto tapped on the genius' head, waiting for the reply.

"Troublesome. Noisy. Girl." came the muffled answer.

"Girl? Shika-baby's on the move!" Kiba yelled. The girls all turned their glares on his direction and motioned him to be quiet by putting a finger over their lips.

"Sorry," the brunette shrugged his shoulders then returned on prying on his lazy friend's love life, "So who's the babe? Is she hot?"

"Dragging. Mouth. Shut up."

"A'w c'mon, Shika-chan! Tell your old pal Kiba all about the girl –!" Chouji pushed the dog lover on the floor before a shoe landed on his face. Shikamaru's head was still tucked between his resting hands on the top of his desk but his right foot was obviously lacking footwear.

Naruto chuckled and shook his head at his best friend's stupidity. He stretched his hand to help the dumbstruck Kiba off the floor. The boy's mouth was a whole separate entity from his brain. It doesn't know when to shut up. If Chouji was not that quick, another dainty mark would be decorating that stupid face. Shikamaru's deadly aim never failed if he was half-asleep, half-awake.

Aside from the shoe incident, their classes went on a smoothly bored sailing. The blonde never heard any weird comments coming from the guy on his back. It was kind of suspicious but he shrugged it off as a good sign.

He must have never heard of the saying the calm before the storm.

ooooo

When the time for lunch break came, Naruto ignored Uchiha and his swarm of girls, save for a cheery "Hi!" for Sakura, came to lunch in the group's hangout by the track and field area of the school. Never mind that this was the first time in two years that somebody else beside the four of them ate at this place.

He didn't give a damn when the actor was also at the corridor the same time Naruto was getting a forgotten textbook on his locker. Their History class was still ongoing while he fetched the book.

He barely glanced at the boy when he went in the faculty building to drop by Iruka-sensei's table and exchange a few words with him in the process. The raven was going to see Kakashi though it was announced by the school speakers earlier that all English teachers were to go in the principal's office for a meeting.

Even though it was a bit disturbing that Uchiha also went to the bathroom the exact time the blonde did. Thrice did Naruto had to be excused to relieve himself and thrice did the other boy's bladder chose to dispose of its load the same time Naruto did.

There were many instances the following days that Sasuke appeared on Naruto's line of peripheral vision at random times. The blonde labeled it as a case of mere coincidence.

Unintentional and sheer coincidence.

ooooo

For two fucking weeks, he had been doing this stalking business and it seems that he was failing it spectacularly. It seems that he was a very lousy stalker.

Either that or Naruto's just too thickheaded to notice that someone was tailing him around.

Ignorance was a far cry from obliviousness. Ignorance is the state of not knowing anything at all. You're as good as a blank paper. Obliviousness, however, refers to the lack of attention to even figure out what was happening.

Sasuke was getting pissed off though it completely was not showing on his face. Thank you, Uchiha mask.

"Naruto, I want you to define of sexual and asexual reproduction," their teacher in Biology asked. The blonde stood up and scratched the back of his head, possibly digging on his mind's walls for the answer.

"Sexual reproduction involves…ah…the union of sperm cell and egg cell. These cells each contain 23 chromosomes, half of a normal cell's 46, that would join and complete the unique genetic code of the zygote," Naruto stopped and scrunched his nose in trying to remember, "Asexual means…ah…you don't have sex?"

"Dobe."

"Don't call me that bastard!" the blonde quickly spun his body around to face the other boy. The raven cockily stood up from his seat that irked Naruto more. Getting on your love's nerve was probably the oldest trick to get his attention but it never failed to work.

"Asexual reproduction is the producing of an offspring without involving copulation. Traits are passed on by different asexual processes. Parthenogenesis is one example."

"Thank you, Uchiha-san."

Fuming at being beaten, the blonde sat on his seat. Sasuke sat rather smugly, basking in the small victory he had over the blonde. Finally, a little bit of attention.

The source of his irritation was the fact that the blonde's not noticing him. To think that there would be a phase in his life that he would be craving his attention instead of banging his head against any flat surface available to get away from his stuffy fans…

Love surely changes people in the most unexpected ways.

"What a show-off…Bastard…to good for an average brain…maybe he's asexual too…" Naruto kept on muttering insults directed at him.

"Your mouth could be quite creative, dobe," he gave out a self-satisfied grin at Naruto's sharp gaze, "There's no use whispering if I could hear it."

He was far from being asexual. Only if he could tell Naruto all his fantasies were revolving around a moaning, hot and very naked Naruto without the boy running away from Sasuke. With Sasuke entering that tight and perky, fuckable piece that was Naruto's ass.

He mentally groaned and leveled down his libido. It would do no good if he suddenly ravished that blonde right in front of these people. Not that he would mind the fucking, but the idea of others seeing Naruto in a state that was reserved for Sasuke especially.

"Whatever," the blonde turned away and returned his gaze at the front.

"Someday, you'll be looking at me in a different way."

"You wish, Uchiha."

This boy would be worthy of all Sasuke's efforts, troubles and sweat. He didn't mind working his back off in vying for the blonde's affections. This was the first time he would be doing that since he thought he had everything that a 16-year old boy could possibly ask in the whole world. But this was also the first time that he had fallen in love.

Love was a very rocky road paved with hatred, jealousy, fan girls and pink-haired rivals. It would all be worth it when he hears those three words come out from the blonde's lovely mouth.

Getting there was not easy but love was always worth it.

ooooo

If there was one thing that Kiba could be proud of, it was not his intelligence. He's the type of person who relies and reacts purely by what his instincts tell him what to do, very much like the animals in the wild.

However, even his porno-filled mind could discern whether something was out of the norm, especially if that something was as noticeable as an Uchiha lurking around Naruto. Sometimes he even considered his status as the dumbest of the four when it was Naruto who was totally clueless with mainly the things around him, mainly about himself.

Three weeks had it been that the actor was practically Naruto's shadow, he was in the same place that Naruto was. Just like now while the two of them were sent in the laboratory to retrieve some items, Sasuke was conveniently going to see the principal in her office.

This was too much of a coincidence to even consider that it was.

"Hey Naruto, you noticing something?" Kiba asked his blonde companion.

"Hmmm, aside from your usually ugly face?" Naruto dodged the fist that was threateningly aimed at him. "Nope, nothing new to notice. Was there something to be of my concern?"

"If you say so, then there's nothing!"

A glance of doubt was cast towards Kiba, who just grinned his canine grin. It made him look more menacing with the sunglasses he was still wearing though his eyes already have healed. He held one arm over Naruto's shoulders and pulled him closer to his side. He ruffled the soft, spiky blonde locks of his friend affectionately.

Hairs on his nape stood and Kiba shivered, his instincts telling him that his life was in mortal danger. He could feel the ominous aura concentrated in one place and undoubtedly, coming from one person. He fearfully turned his head backwards and almost fainted on the spot.

The actor's black eyes were glaring at him with all of the hatred and venom that it could contain.

The expression of those eyes was sharp as a new stainless steel knife fresh form the factory. It was clearly showing these words with those gestures: "BACK OFF MY BLONDE." He followed his instincts and quickly removed his arm and then distanced himself from the blonde as if he was burned. He valued his friendship but he also valued his life. He didn't want to die with his hands only ones to grace his male anatomy. He still wanted to have his mind-blowing sex.

"Are you alright, mutt-boy?" Naruto asked with a concerned look on his face. Noticing the Uchiha's still possessive glare, he sped up his steps until he was almost running.

"Race you to the lab! Losers will be slaves to winners!'

"Wait, Dog-breath!"

Kiba wanted to preserve his life and getting away from Sasuke will make sure of it. Or at least preventing himself on getting closer physically with Naruto. He hated to admit it, but his bet had woken up something from the raven-haired boy's inside.

He had unleashed an unknown force. He was not sure whether it was good or bad.

He really was too slow to name what was eliciting this reaction from the boy.

Silly Kiba. It was only love of course.

Too bad he and Naruto still didn't know what it was.
