Drabble #3
Confusing

"You know, you aren't as confusing as you let on." Naruto said. No annoying tone, just plainly said it. As if commenting on how the sky was blue or how his hair was golden blonde.

Sasuke turned his head, slightly, to take in Naruto's expression – which he didn't have.

"I didn't know I was confusing." Sasuke was becoming confused. Where was Naruto going with this?

"Well, the girls say you are all the time. They say that you never show an emotion. Which, I can see where they're coming from. The only emotion you have is when you think I'm annoying you."

Sasuke pondered this thought until they rounded the corner. "Hm."

"See, like that." Naruto stopped to look Sasuke in the face. "I know you're bothered by what I said, but you just 'hm' like it's nothing."

"Maybe it was nothing." Sasuke just looked at Naruto, catching his gaze directly.

"You're lying."

"What?"

"You're lying."

Sasuke just stared. Naruto was right. He was also right about being the only person in Konaha to raise any emotion to his face.

"And you know I'm lying, how?" He crossed his arms over his chest, signifying that he was close to winning this argument.

"Because you're eyes say it."

And, just like that, Sasuke lost.

"My eyes?"

"Yeah, they say all kinds of stuff. Like how you despise Sakura. How Kakashi annoys you when he's late, although you know he'll be late. And how you miss me when I'm not around you." Naruto said this part a little lower than the rest. But Sasuke still heard him all the same.

"I…I miss…you." The Uchiha stuttered.

"Well, yeah." Naruto rubbed the back of his head and smiled sheepishly. "It's okay," he said quickly. "I miss you too."

"Um, Naruto."

"And, um, they say other things too." Naruto was beginning to get nervous. He didn't really intend to start this conversation, but its happening. Sometimes Sasuke just brought stuff out of him. So, instead of stopping, he continued – rapidly. "But sometimes I can't fully figure them out because there are a million different things running through them. So, if anything, I'd say your eyes are confusing. Which is funny, right? Because you aren't confusing, but your eyes –"

Naruto's rant was stopped short because he began finding it hard to breathe. The breathing problem might have had something to do with Sasuke's lips being pressed against his own. With wide-eyes, Naruto just stood there. He had never been kissed before, and this was all too surreal for his brain to process.

Sasuke pulled back, only to see a wide-eyed, stunned, Naruto staring back at him.

"If you can read them so well, what are they saying now?" When Naruto didn't answer, just stammered something that didn't make sense in any language, Sasuke began walking away. But he was stopped by a strong hand slipping into his.

"The girls are right. You are confusing."


xemorockprincessx: Thanks!!! And, yes, I totally agree that Sasu/Naru ROCKS! lol. That's why 99 of my drabbles have them in it. But, it's oh so worth it. XD
