Wowza, it has been a REEEAAAAAALLY long time since this has been updated. OH WELL. So I obviously DON'T own Naruto or any of the characters…yada yada ya. If I did own them, hehe, the series would be…much different. Grins Evilly So, I don't want a huge speech of nothing before I start so let's get to it…

p.s. My writing style may have changed in the many months I've been away so…be gentle to me.

When we last left our lovely boys, Naruto had just asked Sasuke to crash at his place for the night. Oh dear. What will Sasuke do? He has to say yes right? He just has to!

"Dobe, I don't think that's the best idea." Or not. Sasuke wasn't sure how many things would work about that situation.

"Aw Sasuke, why not? I mean, you said your parents wouldn't worry…" The dobe was such a dobe. Well of course Sasuke had asked himself the SAME question. Of course, Sasuke, being the Uchiha that he is, already had a few logical reasons not to.

"Number one, I have no clothes for school tomorrow. Number two, I meant they wouldn't worry if I was late. They would kill me for not letting them know where I am. Number three, I don't know how to handle myself at someone else's house overnight." Why did Sasuke always have to answer things as if they were obvious questions? Oh, wait, he's an Uchiha. DUH!

Okay, so now the blonde was confused. Just goes to show doesn't it? Well, Sasuke was a perfectly mannered bastard. How could he NOT handle himself at someone else's house? He seemed fine right there, on Naruto's couch. He wasn't shredding the house to pieces or lighting it on fire or totally trashing the place. What could this perfect angel do to his house?

"C'mon Sasuke, we both know your manners are impenetrable. There is no way you could screw my house over."

"By impenetrable, I think you mean impeccable. And it isn't your house I'm worried about…" Sasuke told Naruto without explaining what he really was worried about. What the hell? I thought the Uchiha had a logical explanation for why he wasn't staying. Why isn't he just spitting it out already??

"Sasuke?"

"Okay, fine, I've never been…" Sasuke mumbled the end of the sentence and turned his head away from Naruto. Lordy lordy lordy. What will we ever do with those boys? Well you know Naruto had to be BUBBLING OVER with curiosity.

"Ok, lemme guess, you were abducted by aliens and they probed around your ass and now you're afraid to be away from home over night?"

Ha ha. What was that noise? Where the hell did that come from? Wait a second…did Sasuke just…laugh? "Not quite, dobe."

"Ok, so then you MUST have been kidnapped from your room by the Uchiha fandom. From your room, they took you to a warehouse and performed rituals on you. And that's why you want to be home…you don't want to place any other people in the path of their destruction. Right?"

Sasuke didn't even know what to say to that one. Honestly, when someone asks you a question like that, the only thing you say back is, "There is an Uchiha fandom?"

Naruto's jaw dropped open so far it almost fell off. He was kidding? Modest? Haha. Of all people not to know about the fandom…it was the damn Uchiha the entire fandom worshipped. The fandom being every girl in Konoha.

"You are kidding, right?" The blonde was fighting back the giggles as he realized that he REALLY mustn't have known about it. Sasuke looked slightly befuddled that Naruto was giggling at the mention of a fandom tagged with his name.

"Naruto? What's so funny?" Those few words set Naruto off. He laughed…and laughed…and laughed. How funny was it that he didn't know? Apparently it was hilarious, judging by Naruto's reaction. (If you feel the sudden urge to laugh your ass off, please do.)

Naruto tried to form sentences, but it just wasn't gonna happen. Between gasps he managed a few words, "You gasp only gasp doesn't gasp know!"

"Big help, dobe" Naruto stopped laughing all of the sudden. He looked at Sasuke for a second, cocked his head to one side, and then looked like a kicked puppy.

"I just realized something…you've been calling me dobe. I never did anything to deserve that name! I helped you out of the street when you were hurt!"

"Naruto, I was in the street hurt because of you." Was that not obvious? To Sasuke it seemed as if it was. It was Naruto's fault for not watching where Sasuke was running. Damn. Or not. So Sasuke knew it was his fault for running with his head down. Would he ever admit to that? Psht, in your dreams. Sasuke was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to cocky to do that. I mean….c'mon, he was way too…narcissistic to admit his own flaws, well not that he had any. Uchihas don't HAVE any flaws WHATSOEVER. Lordy, don't you know that already?

"Sasuke. You sidetracked me. Not fair. So why are you scared to stay the night here?" Naruto used his special coaxing voice to get it out of him.

"Oh, crap. It's getting late dobe…er…Naruto. I've gotta get home. See ya." And he was out the door. Naruto didn't even have the chance to respond. He looked at the clock on his wall. Wow. Ten thirty. Time really flew by with that bastard didn't it? Well…he would find out why Sasuke wouldn't stay the night over and then he would have Sasuke stay the night over. It would happen. The iron will of the dobe.

Yeah I know I know. It's not terrific, but please, slack needed. This is the first time I've written a fic (chapter) in FOREVER! So, criticism is good, but not too harsh…or acidic…or mean.

OH MY GOD! Naruto just appeared from nowhere and beat me with a blow up bat!

Naruto runs of yelling "That's for calling me dobe"

Oh, his ass is so getting it.
