I'm sorry for the delay. Hope you will like this chapter.

Chapter 9

"You don't have to hide it. I know you liked it and you know you liked it, so we should do it sometime again" Sasuke smirked.

"I didn't like it.. I was just drunk" Naruto looked down at his hands and hoped Sasuke wouldn't notice he was blushing.

"I'm sure you were more than drunk" Sasuke mumbled and tightened his grip on the fork he had been playing with. Naruto hadn't heard what he said and had no idea why Sasuke suddenly seemed so angry. The waitress came and broke the tense air around them.

"Are you ready to order now?"

"Miso ramen" Naruto almost yelled in his excitement. She smiled and looked at Sasuke.

"The Taiyou no Tomato Ramen" Sasuke pointed on the name just to make sure she knew which one it was.

"And what about something to drink?"

"Just a coke for both of us" She nodded and left.

"Hey why did you order for me?"

"I'm paying" Sasuke smirked at Naruto's pout. "So how about we talk for a bit while waiting for our food? So your name is Naruto?"

Naruto tilted his head a bit and narrowed his eyes. "What are you doing?"

"Just talking" Sasuke said innocently.

"You don't fool me, there is something wrong with all this" Naruto flung his hand around in a circled motion, including the place and both of them.

"You just have to answer the questions... maybe you'll find out why I'm doing this then." Naruto groaned but knew he was too curious not to do so.

"Yeah, I'm Naruto" He crossed his arms and looked guarded at him. He still wasn't so sure if he should trust him.

"I'm Sasuke, as you already know. Are you in high school?" Sasuke was still a bit unsure about his age. He at least hoped he was 18, he didn't want to have sex with someone who was too young.

"I'm in my senior year, but you were probably wondering about that, most people think I'm much younger than I am." Mostly because of the fact that he was born a girl. He wouldn't be able to look like anything other than a pre-puberty boy before he began taking hormones. Sasuke took in how Naruto's shoulders slumped a bit and could sense he felt dejected.

"You should be glad, that just means you will look young when everybody else looks all wrinkly and disgusting. It will be much easier for you to find someone who will lust after you" Naruto blushed at fiddled with the table cloth. He hated how young he looked, it was another constant reminder that his body wasn't what he wanted it to be.

"What about you?"

"I only take a few business class since I work at my family's business and don't really need an education. In my family, we're home schooled up until we reach puberty."

"Why?"

"My family doesn't believe that people outside will be able to teach the children everything that they need, so they do it themselves. We finally get out when we're older because it's important to be able to interact with other people."

"But isn't it hard to do so, when you have been isolated for so long?" Naruto was leaning in over the table and was looking up at Sasuke. Sasuke was a bit shocked to say the least. No one had ever acted like this after hearing it. It was just how it happened, it was normal and no one questioned it. But now this guy, who hated him a moment ago, seemed worried about him.

"Uhm..."

"That must have been horrible, not having any friends and no one to have fun with."

Sasuke quickly composed himself again. "It's not like I need friends. We are tought how to manipulate people and use our business relationship for our own good. People can't really be trusted so I'm sure your idea of a friendship is just a naive one."

Naruto noticed how all emotions had left Sasuke and how flat his voice suddenly sounded. "I'm guessing your point of view is something your family has taught you" Naruto leaned back into his chair again and crossed his arms. He was looking towards the kitchen and hoped the food would soon be here, so he could get out.

"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. But it sure isn't something that concerns you" Sasuke said icily.

"Fine. Then this conversation doesn't concern me either and we can just eat in silence" Naruto huffed. Sasuke sat staring out the window while Naruto was jiggling his leg. Naruto glanced at Sasuke, but the man was still frowning with lips pressed together into a thin line, so he guessed he should just stay quiet. The food soon came and Naruto practically devoured his food. Sasuke was shocked by his table manner, or lack of it.

"You do know you have to chew on it, slow down or you'll choke."

"I won't" Naruto glared up at him. Sasuke couldn't stop but raise a brow when Naruto began to cough shortly after. "Don't. Say. A word."

"You look good when you're slightly flushed, the colour fits you" Sasuke's smirk grew wider as Naruto's cheek turned more red. The tense mood from before had lifted and they relaxed as they ate the rest of their ramen.

"Sorry" Naruto mumbled and looked at the table, "I shouldn't have meddled like that. It's how you were raised, I just thought it was a shame you hadn't experienced true friendship before."

Sasuke sighed, he really couldn't stay mad at this one, "its fine, I know my family's viewpoints are different from normal people. I haven't experienced true friendship, so I can't say whether it's good or bad. I just haven't felt the need to have it."

"I can be your friend" Naruto smiled at him. So naive and innocent… It was almost a shame to use him like the rest, to just fuck him and leave him. This one seemed... rare. Sasuke ran a hand through his hair. Maybe he should just fuck him a couple of times then.

"Alright, if I have to be your friend I have to know ALL about you" Naruto grinned at him. "So what's your favorite color? Mine is orange."

"I didn't tell you we could be friends."

"Nope, but I just decided we were, so tell me."

Sasuke usually didn't like people deciding things for him, but he would let it slide this time. "Blue... sometimes black"

"Why am I not surprised?" Naruto laughed softly, "what about music, hobbies, your family?" Naruto was so excited over all this that Sasuke forgot that he usually didn't like to talk about his life.

"I can listen to almost anything as long as it's not too sappy. I don't really have any hobbies... I think the closest thing to a hobby could be sex" Naruto blushed slightly. "And I already told you something about my family."

"I know, but do you have any siblings? What kind of business do your family have? Is there anyone in your family you have a strong bond with? Just something more?"

"Why are you so interested?"

"Because friends should know each other well" Naruto grinned.

"Fine" Sasuke sighed. "I have a big family, but I live with my parents and my older brother. We work with electronics, but I won't go into details, since I'm sure your little brain wouldn't understand anyway."

Naruto pouted, "I'm not that stupid"

"Yeah, yeah. Let's just pretend I agree with you for a while."

"Do you want to work in your family's business?"

Sasuke shrugged. "I don't know what else I should do."

"We should really find you a hobby or something"

"You could just be my new hobby."

"Somehow it sounds so sexual when you say it."

"Maybe it's because I mean it in a sexual way."

Naruto blushed again, "stop with all the sexual harassment."

"What if I don't want to" Sasuke smirked.

"D-do you l-like me?" Naruto stared at him with wide eyes.

"Like. I thought we a while back established that I didn't like other people. But I do lust after your body" Sasuke licked his lower lip. Naruto's blush darkened and spread all the way to his ears.

"You like b-boys?"

Sasuke raised his brow "I thought that was rather obvious since we met at a gay bar or maybe you were too high to notice that"

"Do you only like boys?"

"Yeah, girls are annoying and their bodies are…" Sasuke shuddered by the thought. He had never liked girls. He had lost count over how many girls had pressed their breast against him, thinking it would be attractive.

"O-okay. We have eaten now, could I get my phone back" Naruto didn't know what he should think right now. A big part of him wanted to stay and be showered in this feeling. The feeling of being wanted. It wasn't really the love he had dreamed about but it was the first time someone had straight out told him he looked good as a boy and he liked the feeling. It made him hate his body just a tad less than before, because if this boy before him was sure he was a boy and not only that but also lusted after him... well that would mean he passed pretty well. He knew he should probably tell him the truth. If they were ever gonna be good friends Sasuke needed to know the truth, but for now he just wanted to keep this up. He wanted to feel attractive just a little bit longer.

"Here you go" Sasuke handed him the phone. "But seriously... your ringtone. I have taken the liberation to change it for you. Maybe people won't see you as a dumbass if you acted a little more mature and smart." Naruto huffed and ripped the phone out of Sasuke's hand.

"Yeah, yeah. I like it, so I'm gonna change it back."

Sasuke got up and began walking out the restaurant. "See you around" He called over his shoulder.

"But I don't ha-" Sasuke was already gone and Naruto just stared around the empty room. How would they see each other when he didn't know where Sasuke lived or worked or anything? His phone vibrated in his hand and shook him out of his thoughts.

I'm smarter than you Dobe. Did you think I would just leave without a means of contacting you?

Naruto stared at the little screen and saw the encoded name on top the screen

MASTER-SASUKE.

Naruto couldn't help but smile at this. So he had put his own number into his phone... but the name... Naruto shook his head, somehow it was so Sasuke-like even though he didn't knew him that well.

Master-Sasuke? Aren't you having a little too big thoughts about yourself or what?

What do you mean? I'm just helping you remember what name to scream when I fuck you.

Naruto blushed again and quickly pushed the phone into his pocket. He wouldn't even reward that with a reply, that bastard should learn what would be appropriate to write and what would not.
