"Um – hey! Ino...?" Naruto particularly high pitched voice broke through the haze of Ino's sake clouded mind and she tried (and failed) to straighten up using the door she just come through to help her assess the situation.

"What is she doing here, dobe." This was another voice, a particularly irritated voice if she was right.

"I'm at my house ya b'stard!" Ino yelled, she waved her hand in an indignant gesture before realizing she was caring a sake bottle in her hand and grinned.

"I told that bitch I could steal her sake!" She declared happily. She turned to address said snake mistress before noticing she wasn't there.

"I has to go tell her!" Ino said, turning back around and stumbling for the door knob.

"You can't go back out like that!" Naruto yelped. No way he was going to leave his girlfriend unattended when she was so drunk!

"Yes you can."

"Fuck you, teme." Naruto said sending a quick glare in his his direction before swiping an arm under her knees and carrying her bridal style toward his room. Naruto made sure to kick the door shut on his way in as he delicately set Ino down on the bed.

"Just go to sleep. I promise to tell Anko what you did, k?" Naruto goaded.

"Your just saying that cause you don't want Sasuke to see us together." Ino blubbered, letting her arm cover her eyes to block out the light.

"I promise thats not true." Naruto retorted softly. Maybe Ino wasn't okay with keeping it a secret as much as he thought she was.

Ino gave him a look and Naruto lamented his statement.

"Okay, so its sort of true but I promise it won't be for long." Naruto kissed her on the forehead before straightening and closing the door behind him as the he exited the bedroom.

Ino stared as the door for a moment before groaning and turning over into the pillow. Naruto had to be aware that it was really hard to sleep when she knew that Sasuke was out there with him.

But then again Naruto was rather oblivious to things that regarded him. Ino reckoned it was kind of cute only because he did that scrunched up confused face that she adored.

"Stupid Uchiha." Ino grumbled. He really was stealing a lot of their time together. "Stupid Naruto." He was an idiot for letting Sasuke monopolize so much of him.

"Stupid Sakura, stupid Sai, stupid stupid stuuupiiiiddd..."

Ino promptly fell to sleep.

"I didn't know you and Ino were friends." Sasuke casually mentioned.

"Maybe you would have if you hadn't of ran off with Orochimaru." Naruto easily quipped. He was still a bit mad about Sasuke's blatant disregard of his girlfriend's safety regardless of the fact that Sasuke wasn't even aware of said relationship.

But in his defense, Naruto was a good guy and as a good guy he would never push away a person in need. Really, Sasuke should have seen it coming.

Sasuke glared but couldn't retort.

"Besides who cares, she doesn't even like you anymore." Naruto added. In fact, Naruto was starting to believe that Ino was really starting to hate Sasuke with the way she kept using his name as a curse for everything that went wrong.

Sasuke scoffed and ignored Naruto's indignant look and returned to their 'Sake Battle'; Naruto's childish name for the game that they were playing which consisted of who could drink more saucers than the other. Sasuke refrained from criticizing the name simply because he was far too proud to admit to have fallen so low as to compete in such a pointless game much less admit that it indeed sounded a lot cooler that way.

"You would have noticed that if you hadn't had an affair."

"I hate you."

"What do you expect? The guy was constantly after boy's bodies. The fact that you willingly went to him only spurs on my theories..."

"I DID NOT have an affair with Orochimaru." Sasuke seethed.

"Sure, Sasuke, sure."

"I'm going to kill you." Sasuke announced. He eyed the bedroom door and wondered if he could pin the blame on the Yamanaka.

"Someones a bit sensitive." Naruto sing-songed. It was way too easy to tease Sasuke.

But then he noticed Sasuke's look at his room and decided that maybe he'd stop for the time being.

"So, um, what number were we on...?"

Just think of tequila shots but just replace the tequila with sake and the shots with saucers.
