The Rest of the Day off - Kakashi the Spy
Haru and Sasuke walked down the sidewalk; watching carts and small buggies go by.
Sasuke sighed
"What?"
"Nothing; it's really nice out though." Sasuke said as he looked up at the clear sky.
"You sure?"
"Yeah...I'm sure."
Haru pulled Sasuke over to a wall. "Was it something I did? Was it what happened at the lake?"
"I-I'm just confused..."
"Confused about what, Sasuke?"
"Why you like me that much. I mean I'm noting special, but yet...you show in so many ways that you like me. Why?"
"I never really knew myself, but there was, and still is, something about you that made me feel so comfortable around you, and I kinda started to like you...I know that sounds really crazy, but that's how I feel about you..."
Sasuke's eyes widened. "That's...that's how I feel about him, but...how am I supposed to say it now?" Sasuke thought. "I feel the same way about you too, Haru...even if I can't say the same kinda thing you said...you basically described my feelings while describing yours at the same time..." Sasuke said looking away slightly; his face turning a light red.
Kakashi stood above them on a rooftop; eavesdropping on the two boys' conversation. When he heard nothing he decided to peek down to see what they were doing, but he saw that they were gone. "How could they've gotten by me? Well...at least I found out what I wanted to know..." Kakashi thought before going home. Once he got home he took out his cell phone to see that he had received a message from Naruto.
Hey sensei, I was wondering, do knew what was going on between Sasuke and Haru? They've been acting a bit weird since the day after Haru showed up here...well anyways just please tell me if you know...I need to make sure I don't make a mistake here.
-Naruto
Kakashi smiled and replied.
Yeah I know, but I don't Sasuke would appreciate it if I told you.
-Kakashi
Naruto made a quick response back.
Please sensei? I promise not to tell anyone about it. I just wanna know because...I uh...I kinda like Sasuke, and if he likes Haru then I don't wanna mess up and try to ask him out...I don't want Sasuke to be mad at me.
-Naruto
Kakashi sighed.
Then don't ask him out...
-Kakashi
Another quick response.
He likes Haru?
-Naruto
Kakashi started to feel bad for Naruto, but he replied anyway.
Yup...I'm sorry...If you tried to ask him out he'd probably end up saying no.
-Kakashi
Naruto replied again.
Then maybe there's a way to make them hate each other.
-Naruto
Kakashi's eyes widened; he'd never think that Naruto would want to hurt Sasuke like that just to be with him.
If you try to do that I WILL tell them the truth: that you're just trying to make them hate each other for your own selfish reasons. I won't let you hurt Sasuke like that...even IF you want to be with him. He won't want to be with someone who's selfish!
-Kakashi
Kakashi was met with another response.
Hurt him? How would I hut him if I just wanna be with him?
-Naruto
Kakashi sighed in irritation. "How can he really be THIS clueless?" He thought to himself.
He has feelings for Haru. If you try to make them hate each other then both of them are going to get hurt. Sasuke would want to go out with ANYONE afterwards because he'd probably still have feelings for Haru. You really don't understand the concept on love do you?
-Kakashi
I guess I don't, but doesn't it count for something that I really care about him?
-Naruto
If you really care about him, as you claim, then you'll let him go with whoever he wants to be with, and in this case, it's Haru.
-Kakashi
Okay fine...Sasuke can be with Haru...even though I'd rather he be with me...I'll let him go with Haru.
-Naruto
Kakashi knew that Naruto was a little hurt from seeing his sensei's message, but he knew that Naruto could let Sasuke stay with Haru and that's what counted the most.
Glad to hear it, but don't feel bad Naruto. I understand how much you wanna be with Sasuke, but there are just some things that aren't meant to happen.
-Kakashi
Okay. Thanks sensei.
-Naruto
No problem Naruto.
-Kakashi
Meanwhile, Haru decided to take Sasuke to the beach; making sure it was a surprise.
"Haru where are you taking me?"
"You'll see when we get there."
"C'mon couldn't you give me a hint?"
"There's water involved."
"Are we going back to the lake?"
"Nope."
"The forest spring?"
"I have no idea where that is, but no."
"Are you taking me to the docks?"
"Again, I have no idea where that is so no."
Sasuke was silent; thinking of other places that have to do with water. "Are we going back to my house?"
"Is there water?"
"Yeah...but what kind of water are we talking about here?"
"A body of water."
"Then yes...there is water there."
"Where?"
"The bathroom, but why would we be going there?"
"We're not, but that was a good guess. Keep guessing, but I have to warn you: we're almost there so I'll give you two more guesses."
"Are we going back to the training ground? There's a river there."
"Nope. One more guess left."
"Uh..." Sasuke said thinking.
"Too late!" Haru whispered into his ear.
"Whadoya mean too late?"
Haru wrapped his arms around Sasuke and kissed his neck.
"H-Haru...W-where were you taking me?"
"Oh right...sorry." He said taking Sasuke's forehead protector off of his eyes.
Sasuke saw a see shore and smiled. He looked back at Haru. "The beach?"
Haru nodded and handed the foreheads protector back to the boy.
Sasuke tied back onto his forehead where it belonged.
Haru grabbed Sasuke's waist and pulled him closer.
"Y-you could warn me ya know..." Sasuke said with a sheepish smile; his face a bright red.
"I know...I choose not to though...to keep you on your toes." Haru said with a sly smile.
"Heh...alright...then I guess I'll have to keep you on YOUR toes too." Sasuke said returning the sly smile.
"Oh really?!"
"Yeah really!"
Haru decided to keep the Uchiha from talking anymore and kissed him long, hard, and in a loving way. He pulled away after a while; leaving the two of them breathless. "Shhh...you...you talk too much..." The swimmer said; still trying to catch him breath.
Sasuke smiled. "Its how you know I'm still alive." Sasuke said; also trying to catch his breath.
Haru smiled. "Good point..."
"So...why did you bring me here again?" Sasuke asked; easing his breathing pattern.
Haru took Sasuke's hand. "Follow me."
"I kinda have no choice." Sasuke said; one eyebrow raised as pointed at Haru's hand holding his.
"Alright smartass...just follow me."
"Okay."
Haru lead Sasuke to the farthest side of the beach to show him a fort made of leaves, trees, and destroyed sails (that weren't torn bad enough not to use).
Sasuke looked at Haru with a confused yet happy look. "What are you planning?"
"Just follow me okay?"
Sasuke sighed. "Alright I'll humor you."
"You won't be saying that for long, trust me." Haru said as he lead Sasuke into the beach fort.
