Hey everyone! E.L.Y here again! :D I didn't get any reviews on my first chapter but I did get 16 views/visitors ^.^ I guess that's a pretty good number for a time space of 2 days. ^^ Haha, anyways here's the second chapter like I promised! Enjoy! Oh wait, there's one thing I forgot to state in the last chapter, to all you Sakura haters (including me) I tried the best I can to make her nice, I didn't really want her drooling and clinging to an innocent cute Sasuke so I made her nice and not really interested in him. xD

Chapter 2: Ramen!

Sasuke walked up besides Naruto and began walking back to the bridge to see if Kakashi and Sakura were finished yet. When reaching the bridge they saw the silver haired man casually leaning against the bridge with his back to it and head up, gazing over the light blue lucious sky, but no Sakura in site. Naruto tilted his head idn conclusion as he walked up to his masked Sensei. "Kaka-Sensei we're finished! Where is Sakura-chan?" he asked which a confused tone while using his eyes to scout the area.

Kakashi looked down from the sky and to his Blonde haired knucklehead student. "Sakura has gone home already, you two sure did take a long time, what exactly were you doing?" Kakashi asked his student with a curious tone. Naruto laughed and rubbed the back of his head. "Well it's been the first time me and Sasuke has sparred in what 1 week? Our squad did have a long break after all. Sasuke just look up at his Sensei and nodded. As if to say 'Yeah he's right'.

The silver haired man smiled and put his hands in his pockets. "Yeah I guess so. Well you two are free to go then." Kakashi paused for a bit, remembering something he had to say. "Oh we'll be going to Sunagakure tomorrow for a mission, I'll give you more details about it later. Be here tomorrow at 12, don't be late!" With that being said the silver haired man suddenly disappeared in a poof of smoke, not even waiting for a reply from either of the two.

Naruto blinked at the sudden events, only just interpreting what happened now. "Hey wait!" The Blonde said far too late then he actually should have. Naruto closed his eyes and let out a loud sigh. "Damn that pervert." Sasuke looked over at the Blonde and chuckled a little. "Come on, I'm sure a bowl or two of Ramen will cheer you up." The Raven smiled and began walking away from the Blonde, giving out the message for him to follow. Naruto's eyes opened and he gave a huge grin. "You bet!" He gave a small jog to catch up with the Raven and began walking beside him. Though he couldn't help but feel a little bugged at Sasuke's behaviour, why was he acting so... nice recently?

Before he had to beg the Raven for at least ten minutes before he got him to buy him a bowl of Ramen. But hell Naruto didn't care, it was free Ramen for Kami's sake! The trip to the Ichiraku's wasn't very long at all, they both enjoyed having each other's company and they even cracked a few jokes about how extremely weird and quiet Shino is. [Aww poor Shino xD]

When they reached Ichiraku's the Blonde rushed over to the middle left stool and sat down on it, placing his hands on the table like area in front of him, he waited for Sasuke to sit down to the right of him before ordering. "Yo Pops! 2 Miso Ramen with extra pork please!" The Blonde said out with an excited loud toned voice. The Older man behind the counter smiled down at Naruto and gave a nod. "Sure thing Naruto!" He said before turning around and began making the Ramen.

Ayame [Ichiraku's daughter] smiled and looked over at Naruto. "Oh Naruto! Glad to see you here again!" She paused and turned her attention to the Raven haired boy sitting next to him. "Oh I see you brought Sasuke along with you as well " She smiled at him. Naruto smiled "Yup! And he's paying as well! Right Sasuke?" He extended his right arm and slapped Sasuke on the back with his right hand causing Sasuke to jump slightly at the unexpected motion. He blinked and looked over at Naruto "Y-Yeah..." He let out a little lowly and turned his attention back in front of him.

Ayame giggled at the two's behaviours and turned around to help her father prepare the Ramen. A few minutes later, though for Naruto it felt like hours, two bowls of Ramen was placed in front of each of the Genin's. Naruto grinned and licked his lips as he looked down at his bowl. He brought two chopsticks together in between both of his palms. "Itadakimasu!" He let out cheerfully and immediately began eating away at his Ramen. Sasuke did the same but didn't eat no where near as fast as the Blonde, in fact he barely even touched his Ramen. Mainly because he didn't really like the noodle dish all that much, he only came with Naruto because he lost the bet with him.

Sasuke blinked a few times with wide eyes over at Naruto. He's already finished?! It hasn't even been 2 minutes! Sasuke continued to stare at Naruto, completely shocked and just couldn't believe he finished already, you think after seeing it like a hundred times it wouldn't shock you anymore but it still managed to surprise the Uchiha. Naruto looked up from his now empty bowl, he even finished the juice as well!, and looked over at Sasuke noticing he is staring at him. He was about to ask him why he was when Sasuke's bowl got his attention, he barely even touched it!

Naruto looked from the bowl back up to Sasuke's face. "Hey Sasuke if you're not gonna finish that I cou-" "Yes you can have my Ramen Naruto." He interrupted. Naruto smiled brightly and took the bowl from Sasuke. "Thanks!" He said happily and began to get right into it. Sasuke was used to this, every time he came here with Naruto, Naruto would always ask for his Ramen because he never really even touched his bowl. Sasuke looked over at Naruto and smiled warmly to himself. Now that he thinks about it, having Naruto around him really did make him happy, he always enjoyed talking with him, walking with him, even sparing with him. All of it he enjoyed though he'll never admit it to Naruto's face, that would be too... Embarrassing and it'll make it REALLY awkward... maybe?

Sasuke's thoughts were interrupted as he noticed the Blonde staring at him with a puzzled facial expression and an empty bowl. Sasuke turned his head immediately back to the front and failed fighting of the very small blush that crept up over his pale cheeks. Naruto continued to look at Sasuke for a few moments before finally speaking. "You okay Sasuke? You've been spacing out a lot recently." He waited for a response. "Huh? Oh I-I'm fine just thinking about stuff is all." He chuckled a little nervously and kept his eyes forward. Naruto didn't really think much of it so he just turned back round, he got up from his stool and walked out from the stand. "Thank you for the food!"

He turned round and faced the father and daughter, waiting for Sasuke to join him. Sasuke pulled out his wallet and paid for the cost of the food. He turned round and walked over to Naruto. "No problem! Come back at anytime!" The older man smiled and waved at the placed his palms on the back of his head and looked at the Uchiha. "Thanks for paying Sasuke!" He smiled brightly. Sasuke smiled softly in response. "No problem, Naruto." Naruto smiled once again. "Well I guess I'll see you tomorrow then?" He continued looking at the Uchiha across from him. "Yeah, see you tomorrow I guess." He let out awkwardly and lowly, for some reason he felt his heart sink a little, did he want Naruto to stay with him? Is that why he felt his heart sink?

He looked at Naruto as the Blonde gave him a smile and turned, beginning to walk away. He bit his lip and suddenly felt pressure being put on him, Naruto was getting further and further away each second, he had to do something about it, no he NEEDED to do something about it. A few moments of hesitation and panicking later he finally built up the courage. "Wait N-Naruto!" He called out after the Blonde with a stutter causing a really faint blush to form over his pale cheeks.

The Blonde blinked and turned around as he heard Sasuke calling out his name and telling him to wait. "Hmmm?" Naruto turned round and looked back over at the Uchiha, a little surprised as he wasn't expecting Sasuke to shout out his name. The Raven began to speed walk over to Naruto. "I was wondering if err... If you would l-like to... Come over to my house?" He asked and looked down at the floor nervously. The Blonde smiled. "Yeah sure of course!" Sasuke looked up from the ground a little wide eyed. "R-Really?" The Blonde laughed and let his hands drop to his side. "Of course, why wouldn't I want to come?!" Sasuke let out a sigh of relief as he felt all the nerves go away almost instantly.

He smiled and looked up at Naruto "Follow me then." He began walking down the village path to the Uchiha compound. The journey wasn't very long at all, only 10-15 Minutes or so. When they reached there the Blonde was amazed at how big it was, he 's never been around this area of Konoha before, in fact pretty much no one really dared to come near the Uchiha Compound after that terrible incident all those years ago.

Sasuke opened the large doors and walked inside, leaving it open for Naruto to enter as well. When he walked inside the Blonde locked the rather large doors again. Sasuke then began to walk through the streets, passing empty buildings and boarded up houses everywhere. Naruto was using his eyes to scan every part of the newly discovered place, it was all... Empty... Not a sign of another human's presence anywhere.

The Blonde felt chills go up his back so he quickened his pace to be besides Sasuke again as he was falling a bit behind. Only one question went through Naruto's mind at this point. How could Sasuke live like this? How could he come back to this place everyday knowing the terrible events that took place in here? Naruto was snapped out of his thoughts as Sasuke stopped at a large building. It looked more like a home then anything else, he slid open the door and walked inside, leaving the door open for Naruto to walk in.

When the Blonde got inside he slid the door shut behind him and took his shoes off. [I don't know really what they are, I think they might be sandals or something but I'll just refer to them as shoes. :P] Sasuke did the same. "So this is where you live huh?" The Blonde said, breaking the silence. Sasuke nodded and looked around at Naruto. "Yeah, feel free to make yourself at home." He said and began to walk out of the room and into the hallway. Naruto, not really knowing what to do just followed him, The two walked into what appeared to be, the Living Room.

Sasuke sat himself down on the couch and picked up the TV remote, beginning to flick through the channels. [If they have computers, the thing they used to decide the matches at the Preliminary stages of the Chunin Exams, then they have TV's dammit!] Naruto walked in and sat besides Sasuke, watching him as he continued flicking through the channels.

The Uchiha sighed seeing there was nothing good on. He got up and passed the remote to Naruto. "I'm going to go take a shower. That sparing match made me sweat a lot more then expected." Sasuke smiled and walked passed Naruto, exiting the room he began to walk down the hallway. Naruto only gave a light chuckle in response but didn't take his attention away from the TV.

The Raven walked down the hall and into the bathroom, he locked the door and began to strip himself of his clothes, when fully naked he got into the shower and began to wash his body, he loved the feeling of the warm water dripping down from the shower head all the way down his body. Sasuke looked up and let the water also run down his neck. He raised a pale hand and rain it through his smooth, wet hair.

The Raven reached out for the shower gel and rubbed a fairly large amount in between his hands, he then began rubbing his body with his now soapy hands, he rubbed around his chest, his back, his arms when suddenly Naruto popped up in his head. He froze with shock and shook his head from side to side a little, trying to free himself from the image. But it wasn't working...

He continued rubbing his body with images of Naruto still stuck in his head, why couldn't he stop picturing it? He thought about his spiky, smooth, luscious Blonde hair. His sun kissed perfect skin, with those 6 whisker marks on his face, 3 parallel each other on either side of his cheek. His dreamy ocean Blue eyes that fit perfectly with his hair. He blushed heavily at the thought of him thinking of his best friend/rival and how beautiful he truly is while in the shower.

Sasuke rinsed off his hands and reached for the shampoo, getting a decent amount in his hands he raised them to his head and began scrubbing his hair thoroughly, making sure to get to every spot possible. After a good few minutes of scrubbing he began to rinse his hair off, running his hands through is hair at the same time to help get the bubbles out faster. When the bubbles were completely out of his hair he turned off the shower and got out.

Sasuke walked over to the radiator and grabbed a white towel off of it. He wrapped it around his waist and unlocked the bathroom door, the Raven walked down the hallway and into the bedroom, he opened up his wardrobe and pulled out a dark blue plain T-shirt, black boxers and a pair of plain black trousers. He put on the boxers first and dropped the towel. He then put on the Dark Blue T-shirt followed by the Black trousers. When he was fully dressed he walked out of the bedroom back into the hallway then into the bathroom again.

He picked up his old clothes and walked out and into the kitchen. He stuffed his headband into his pocket and left his arm cuffs on the kitchen counter, he put the rest of his dirty clothes into a laundry basket. Sasuke walked out of the kitchen and back into the living room where he left Naruto waiting for him on the couch. He looked over at the couch and saw the back of Naruto's head. He walked over towards him. "That was refreshing." He smiled and looked down at the Blonde's face only to see him fast asleep.

Sasuke blinked a few times, he looked over at the TV and saw a boring documentary about what appeared to be, lions was on. He chuckled lowly to himself. He must of fell asleep after finding nothing good was on any of the channels. Sasuke walked over to the Blonde's sleeping body and very slowly took the remote out of his hand, making sure not to wake him. He pressed the red button on the remote which switched off the TV. He looked over at the Blonde again. Maybe he should take Naruto to a bed? He didn't look very comfortable to be in that slouched position with his head against the hard surface of the couch.

Sasuke decided he probably should. So he walked over to The Blonde and carefully placed and arm across his back and another arm under his legs. Surprisingly Naruto was lighter then expected, y'know, you'll think all of them bowls of Ramen would make him fat. He lifted Naruto off the couch slowly and raised his arms up. He began slowly walking towards the door and out of the room.

Sasuke looked over at the Blonde's sleeping face and smiled. He sure did look peaceful when he's asleep. Sasuke walked down the hallway and into his bedroom, he slowly walked over to his bed and very gently placed Naruto down on the bed sheets He moved back a little and looked at Naruto's sleeping face once again. Naruto really did... look hot... The Raven continued to stare at the Blonde's face, why couldn't he keep his eyes off of him?

Suddenly without thinking much at all, Sasuke moved his face upwards a bit so his face was now directly in front of Naruto's. He felt his heart pump fast as he stared at Naruto's closed eye lids. Sasuke moved his face down a bit so his forehead was pressed against Naruto's, his black hair drooped down and was lightly touching the Blonde's whiskered cheeks and upper parts of his face. Sasuke felt his heart pump hard against his chest and his eyes began to get dazed. There lips were literally 1 miller meter apart. He felt himself breath heavily against Naruto's skin. He had a really Really REALLY big urge to press his lips against Naruto's, he wanted to taste Naruto, he wanted Naruto to taste him. He skimmed his lips lightly against Naruto's a little, god the feel of Naruto's lips were heavenly. He really badly wanted to kiss him right there and now, but he knew he shouldn't.

Sasuke gave one last stare at the Blonde's closed eye lids before pulling away. He sighed in disappointed and gave out a low groan before running a hand through his hair. Sasuke walked round to the other side of the bed and laid down next to Naruto, he turned on his side and faced Naruto's direction before pulling the blanket over the two and slowly closing his eyes till he drifted off into a peaceful relaxing sleep.

Thank you so much for reading! I hope you enjoyed. I've decided to upload a new chapter every Tuesday and Thursday, The reason I'm only uploading twice a week is because if I ran out of ideas, it'll give me some extra time to think of some more plot lines. Though it doesn't seem like I'll run out of ideas any time soon. Got about 3 or 4 chapters planned, after that I'm gonna have to think of some more plot lines so I can make it longer. :) Nether the less, Thanks for reading again and I'll see you Tuesday with a new chapter! Also don't forget to leave some feedback, it'll be very much appreciated. :D!
Much Love.
