Chapter 11

Sasuke was sitting in his room in front of his computer. Fun. . . He had to think of something fun to do. Normally he would just take someone to a club and later have sex, but something told him that wouldn't do with Naruto. Naruto wanted to play friends and he would have to keep playing for a little while longer until he would have his price. Where did people go nowadays? Sasuke had no idea, he wasn't used to going out and especially not with friends. He groaned and massaged his temples, he should be able to figure something out. It wouldn't do to take him to fancy restaurants or in other ways flash how much money he had, since Naruto was different. He was sure Naruto wouldn't care if he ate in a five star restaurant or a little narrow shop in a backyard as lo ng as he was with friends. W h ich just made everything harder h e couldn't just get the priciest or most famous, he had to find something that would be fun.

Sasuke opened the browser and searched for "Fun date activities" h e knew it wasn't a date, but figured that term would come up with something useful. He didn't really know what to call what ever it was. The term date seemed more ... intimate than Sasuke liked. It sounded like he actually liked the dobe and that he wanted something more romantic between them, which he didn't. He was only doing this because he wanted a good fuck and because Naruto was exciting, new, different . He really was beginning to be Sasuke's new hobby. He scrolled down and read one suggestion after the other, trying to figure out what would be more successful than Naruto's ice-skating . It had to be something he could do, he didn't want a repeat of the humiliating behaviour at the ice rink.

He finally found one. Bowling. He had tried it once before and it wasn't that complicated. I f he arranged a late game then they could go to a club afterwards. That way he would offer something fun to Naruto and later get back to where he was comfortable (and had a bigger change of getting something sexual out of Naruto).

Naruto hadn't heard from Sasuke in a couple of days but didn't want to see desperate by writing to him , So for now t he ball was in Sasuke's court and he just had to wait. He had actually had a really fun time with him last time and he looked forward to seeing him again.

He was on his way back to his apartment, all alone since Kiba and Hinata was on a date. He shivered at the feeling of eyes on him, were the gazes of other people l ingering on him for just a moment too long? The thought leaving Naruto feeling paranoid and he picked up his pace . Could they see it? Did they notice he wasn't a boy? His mantra began loudly in his head and kept going on and on in a loop. Feet more apart, don't move your hips, shoulders back and give them slight movement, out with your chest, bigger steps. Feet more apart... On and on, until he felt more relaxed. He had used a long time to figure out how to move to seem more masculine and it was something he always had in the back of his head whenever he was outside.

He could feel a dense pain in his lower back from tensing too much to keep his hips straight and from walking with an unnaturally longer space between his feet, but he had to do it. He was afraid that if he relaxed and walked more naturally people would know. It was the small things that could make it or break it. It was things that normal boys could do without people questioning them, but because he was so feminine in the first place he couldn't act certain ways. He had to be careful his nails didn't grow too long or that he wouldn't put his hands on his hips. He also had to be careful that his voice didn't get to girly, which it did whenever he would get too excited about something. He hated it. He hated not being able to act naturally because then he would be seen as a girl, and that was worse than anything else. He felt his mobile vibrate in his pocket and tried to shake all the negative feelings away.

What are you gonna do today?

The message was from Sasuke and the dejected look was replaced with a happy grin. He quickly messaged back.

Nothing so far, why?

He waited impatiently for the reply, hoping it was because he would ask him out. Naruto suddenly stopped in his tracks. That was wrong. He didn't want to be asked out. They were only friends, he just wanted to hang out and have fun.

Wanna go somewhere fun?

For some reason, Naruto had that idea that Sasuke's fun had something to do with sex.

Depends ... Where are we going?

Somewhere fun .

Naruto could just see Sasuke smirking for his inner eye. Sometimes that guy was so irritating.

I got that, but where? What are we gonna do?

You'll just wait and see

Naruto's eye began twitching, why couldn't he just tell him.

Argh, you bastard!

So are you com ing?

... Yes

Good

But where should we meet?

"Here is fine . "

Naruto shrieked as he felt someone talk right into his ear from behind.

"I didn't know you where that easy to scare" Sasuke smirked.

"I'm not . .. You were just lucky" Naruto pouted.

"Let's just pretend you're right"

Naruto lightly hit Sasuke's shoulder "I'm not scared . "

Sasuke raised an eyebrow and stared at him.

"Not that much . .. Just sometimes . " Naruto fiddled with his shirt "It's Kiba's fault, he always want s to see such horrifying movies" Naruto mumbled.

"Invite me next time, I can hold your hand . "

"Somehow it sounds so much more indecent when you're looking at me like that . "

Sasuke snickered and began walking. "You com ing or what?"

"Of course" Naruto hurried after him.

Sasuke walked over to the nearest bowlin g cent r e and soon it was dawning on Naruto where they were going.

"Bowling. Is that what you call fun?" Naruto looked at him confused. "Is it... Do you not. . . I thought you would. . ." Naruto fumbled around for his words.

Sasuke had been sure this were a good idea and that Naruto would think it was fun. The reaction took him by surprise. He quickly masked it.

"If you don't want to, we can go . " The cold tone didn't go unnoticed by Naruto.

"It wasn't like that, I just didn't think you would like going to these kinds of places . " The smile Naruto gave him, slowly made Sasuke relax again. They went in and put on the shoes. Sasuke found a free lane and they went to find the bowling balls that fit them. Naruto had already picked one but when he saw Sasuke grabbed a heavier one he put his back again.

"Are you a bit competitive?" Sasuke teased as he saw Naruto grabbed a ball that was a bit too heavy for him.

"No, I just wanted this one instead . "

"Put it back, you can hardly lift it . "

"It's fine, I'll use this one . "

"You'll only hurt yourself" Sasuke said a little firmer. Naruto had to admit that his arms were already beginning to hurt a little and went to put it back again.

"That's better . "

"Don't say anything" Naruto mumbled , agitated. Sasuke began putting their names on the board and let Naruto start.

The game went alright , t hey were both very competitive and didn't want the other to win and t he conversations went from friendly teasing into irritated mumbling and back from time to time. They were almost equal and the atmosphere got more and more heated the closer they got to the end. Sasuke was a few points ahead of Naruto and they only had a few minutes left.

"If you get a strike now, you have a chan c e" Sasuke said trying to put pressure on him. Naruto stuck out his tongue at him and picked up the ball. He was concentrating deeply and began to swing. Unfortunately for him he was concentrating too much on the pins and ended up falling heavily on his as s. For a moment he just lied there, not really knowing what had just happened, until he heard laughter from behind. He turned his head and saw it was Sasuke.

"You a ss , don't just laugh at me" Naruto yelled loudly. He was seething, this meant the bastard had won "I hate you . "

Sasuke tried hard to contain his laughter, something he hadn't had to do before.

"Sorry" Sasuke went over and tried to help him up. Naruto took his hand and slowly got back on his feet again. "Do you admit defeat?" Sasuke taunted .

"Never . "

"I'll give you a consolation prize if you do . "

Naruto was still mad, but his curiosity slowly won out . "You win . "

"See, that wasn't that bad" Sasuke smirked at him and slowly dragged him back so they could take off their shoes.

"What's my prize?"

" Wanna go to a club?"

Naruto stopped walking "I don't think that's a good idea" He mumbled softly. Sasuke had a good guess about why Naruto didn't want to go.

"I'll protect you . "

"Hmm. . . Maybe . "

"You don't get your prize if you don't go . "

Naruto gasped "But I admitted defeat. I should get it then ! "

Sasuke shrugged "Too bad. If you don't go, you won't get it . "

Naruto groaned and cursed himself for being too curious.

"Fine" He said through clenched teeth already regretting his decision
