Out On the Town

Sasuke slipped his high-tops on and threw a pair in Haru's direction. "Here catch."

Haru caught the shoes and slipped them on; tapping them on the floor to make sure that they fit.

"You ready?"

Haru looked up and nodded. "Yeah. Let's get going."

Sasuke opened the door; holding for Haru after walking outside.

"Thank you."

"Sure."

The two boys walked down the street that lead out of the complex; reaching the shops. With luck, the clothing store was open early that day.

"C'mon!" Sasuke said as he ran toward the door; gesturing for Haru to follow.

Haru ran after Sasuke soon after seeing the gennin's gesture.

They stopped running after reaching the door to the clothing store.

"So this is it?"

"Yup let's go in."

Haru nodded.

The two boys walked into the clothing store; Haru returning the favor by letting Sasuke go in first. Haru followed.

Sasuke stopped in front of the swimmer and put his arms out. "Pick your favorite." He said cracking a smile.

Haru smiled; seeing the racks and shelves full of cloths to try. "Wow...that's a lot of cloths."

"Go ahead Haru."

Haru walked over to a rack that was full of cool-looking T-shirts.

Sasuke walked over and helped Haru pick out a couple shirts. He picked out a black T-shirt with a dolphin on the front. He looked at the tag. "Custom backside huh?" He thought as he turned to show it to Haru. "Hey Haru."

Haru turned to see Sasuke holding the dolphin T-shirt. His face immediately lit up.

"You like it?"

"Why don't you try it on?"

"Okay." Haru said as Sasuke handed him the shirt. He walked into the changing stall and tried the shirt. He looked at himself in the mirror. "It's a perfect fit...how did he know?" Haru thought before being snapped from his thoughts by Sasuke.

"How does it fit Haru?"

Haru opened the door. "What do ya think?"

Sasuke's eyes widened. "Wow...heh...nice...how does it fit?"

"It fits perfectly. How'd you know?"

"I guessed." Sasuke said with a sheepish smile as he scratched the back of his neck.

"Nice guess then."

"Hehe thanks." Sasuke said with a chuckle. "He's the same size as me...maybe he's the age too then, but I could be wrong." Sasuke thought as he unconsciously stared at where Haru's abs slightly show.

"Uh...Sasuke?"

Sasuke snapped out of his trance. "Huh?"

"What are you staring at?" Haru asked as he looked down at where Sasuke had been staring. "Where you staring at my abs?"

Sasuke's face turned a little red. "K-kinda..." He admitted.

Haru giggled. "Cute."

"Did you wanna get that shirt or not...?" Sasuke asked as his head turned away a little; his face still red.

"Sure."

"Then go take it off."

"Haru just grabbed his shirt and walked out. "Hold this."

"B-but..."

"Just gimmie a sec." He said as he quickly took the dolphin shirt off.

Sasuke couldn't help but stare as the dolphin shirt came off; reveling muscular tan-ish skin.

Haru switched shirts with Sasuke and put his bed shirt on. "Okay..." The swimmer said; turning his attention to the red-faced gennin. "What?"

"S-sorry...I-I'm just..."

"Having your little fantasies are we Sasuke?"

"I-I-I never..."

Haru lifted an eyebrow at his friend.

"Okay...okay, yeah...I was..."

Haru laughed and put his arm around Sasuke's shoulders and walked back over to the shirts.

They found Haru five shirts and a couple pairs of pants and even a sweatshirt. They went to the check-out counter to pay for the clothes. The lady started to bag the cloths as she rung them up to be paid for. She found the dolphin shirt last. "Um sir?" She said tapping Haru on the shoulder.

"Yes?"

"Did you want to customize this shirt?"

"I can do that?"

"Yes you can." She said showing him the tag.

"I-I'd love to."

"What would you like me to put of the back?"

"Could you give me a second to draw it of I may?"

"Of course." She said with a sweet smile.

"Thank you." Haru said with a smile.

The woman at the register gave him a sheet of paper and a pencil. "Do you need anything else?"

"Uh not now, but thanks anyway." Haru said with a gentle smile.

Haru started to sketch out a dolphin. He then started to sketch a wolf on the other side. The drawing started to look like a yin and yang symbol.

Sasuke looked over Haru's shoulder and saw the picture. "Wow...he's a great artist." He thought as he watched Haru finish his sketch.

"Could I have these colors please?" The swimmer asked pointing at a list of colors he made.

"Of course." The woman said before crouching. He stood back up with the colors that Haru had asked for.

Haru quickly finished the drawing with color. "Here."

"Thank you. Wait here please. This won't take too long." She said before walking over to a machine. She placed the drawing on the scanner and the shirt in the tray below the scanner.

Sasuke and Haru watched as the lady pressed the 'start' button. The machine started scanning the picture; leaving a finished picture on the shirt.

"There was something I wouldn't let you see Sasuke, but you'll see it soon." Haru thought as the cashier walked back over with the shirt.

Sasuke paid for the cloths and grabbed the bags.

Haru took a couple bags from Sasuke so that he wasn't carrying all of them.

"Thank you."

"No Sasuke, thank you."

"You're welcome. By the way, you're a really great artist."

"Aw thank you."

"You can keep the shoes by the way...if they fit."

"Yeah they fit...thank you..."

"You say that too much." Sasuke said with a chuckle.

"You MAKE me say it too much." Haru laughed.

They walked down the street into the Uchiha complex.

Sasuke unlocked the door and they walked inside and to Haru's room.

They put Haru's cloths on the floor in front of the dresser.

"We should get dressed...like actually dressed." Sasuke said putting the last bag on the floor.

"Yeah." Haru agreed.

Sasuke heard his cell phone ring and picked it up. "Hello?"

*Hey Sasuke. I was out for an early morning walk and saw you with some other kid. What are you doing up and out so early, and who was the kid that you were with?* The man questioned on the other end.

"Well first off: the 'kid' I was with?"

*Yeah?*

"His name is Haruka Nanese. He's from another world. He came here through a mysterious portal, and he's going to be staying with me until that portal reappears."

*Well that answers those questions, but why were you and Haruka out so early?*

"He needed cloths so we went to see if the clothing store was open and it was...so we kinda bought him some."

*Oh I see...*

"One question sensei?"

*Sure.*

"Why are you being so protective all the sudden?"

*I'm just asking Sasuke. You said you wanted a parent figure...well here you go: I'll be your father figure.*

"S-seriously?!" Sasuke asked with a bright smile; catching the attention of Haru who was putting his cloths away.

*Seriously.*

"Well I gotta go...I should be getting ready for today's training."

*Right, well then I'll talk to you later Sasuke.*

"Kay, see ya." Sasuke said before hanging up.

Haru shut the last draw of the dresser. "Who was that?"

"It was my sensei."

"Oh. What'd he say that made you so happy?"

"Oh it was something about what we had talked about a couple days ago."

"Should I be concerned?"

"No...no need."

Haru shrugged. "Alright then."

Sasuke looked at the clock. "It's 6:30 already?"

Haru looked at the clock as well. "Huh...I guess it is. Why is this the time you normally wake up at?"

"No I wake up around 7:45."

"Oh."

"Do you want something to eat?"

"D you have mackerel?"

"Yeah. Did you want that?"

"Yes please."

"Kay. Meet you in the kitchen."

"Okay. Wait Sasuke!"

Sasuke stopped and turned. "Yeah."

"What about getting dressed?"

"I'll get dressed and then I'll grill your mackerel."

"Kay."

Sasuke walked down the hall into his room and changed into clothes that he'd normally wear one day for training.

Haru decided to wear a zipper shirt that Sasuke bought him that had a dolphin on the back. He looked in the mirror and smiled. He said turning slightly; seeing the dolphin head.
