The Blackmail...?

His eyebrows rose as I assured my claim of the innocent sheet of paper, "you're not going to deny it?" Firstly, who was this dude?

My arms crossed and my scowl deepened, "no, no I'm not." Secondly, why did he still have my paper?

"Isn't it embarrassing to admit that you've made a 'how to be social' list?" he asked as he shook the list in question slightly, "no, no it's not." Thirdly, why was I replying to him?

The blond boy sighed before scanning the area, there was nobody around, well nobody I cared about at least. He turned slightly and gestured for me to follow him, "come with me for a second." He commanded as he walked away.

My eyebrow rose from where it was but I didn't move an inch, when he noticed I hadn't moved he turned around and waved my list again, "if you don't come you'll never get your paper back."

I shrugged, "it literally has two things on it, I can easily make a new one." Turning to walk away, I was stopped when he grabbed my wrist and began to pull me towards where he was going.

His grip wasn't forceful and his pull wasn't hasty, I was extremely annoyed that he had dared to manhandle me but I didn't bother shaking off his touch; it was surprisingly warm.

Wait, who was this guy again?

I pulled the well known loner of the school Sasuke Uchiha into one of the empty classrooms before turning to him and holding up the sheet of paper that had slipped from his bag moments before.

"You do know what I can do with this don't you?" I asked with the most malicious grin I could pull, I didn't honestly want to blackmail him but I was curious and curious people did what curious people had to do.

He shrugged in an unbothered manner, "don't know and don't care."

"I can make copies of this and spread your embarrassing secret around the school; you wouldn't like that would you?"

He looked at me as if I was stupid, and honestly, considering how I was acting, I felt pretty stupid, "it wouldn't affect me, I have no friends, why do you think I made the stupid list in the first place?"

I crossed my arms and considered this for a second, "you want friends?" For a brief second I thought I saw a small tint of red cover his cheeks but by the time I blinked it was gone, "no." He denied as he focused on flattening his fringe rather than looking directly at me.

Sasuke Uchiha was a pretty confusing guy, I had never talked to him before so I never knew what he was like, in fact, nobody in our whole school other than the teachers have ever gotten him to talk or change his facial expression, it was a huge scare when I went to hand his paper back and I saw a slight flicker of a smile on his face, no matter how fake it looked.

"Then why did yo-"

"Look, whatever your name is." He cut in.

"Naruto."

"I don't care." He replied with a hefty sigh, I held back a chuckle at the pissed off expression his face showed, "neither do I care about you or your stupid blackmail so I'd appreciate it if you handed me back my list and we both went on with our lives without having to remember this painful experience again, OK?"

I considered it, I could hand back the paper, go back to my friends, pretend I never got to hear Sasuke Uchiha's alluring voice speak to me directly and ignore whatever scheme he had going on in that pretty little head of his or I could keep the list, offer to help with whatever the plan was, become friends with him and possibly have the time of my life.

Grinning one of my trademark mischievous grins, I replied, "No."

In a second Sasuke was on me trying to grab the paper out of my grasp but I lifted it higher and higher until he had to jump to touch it and to prevent that from happening, I wrapped my arm around his waist and held him flush against my chest. He paused for a moment and I took that as my chance to speak, "just hear me out, OK?" I whispered in his ear.

He relaxed, albeit slowly, in my grip till he was no longer reaching on his tip toes. I reluctantly released him from my grip but we stood much closer together than we were before, "I will take pictures of this and put it all around the school..."

He opened his mouth, most probably to shout at me, but I held up my hand and gave him my most reassuring smile, "unless," I continued, my smile slowly morphed into a grin, "you let me help you with that plan of yours."

He looked at me sceptically, "you're going to blackmail me to let you help me?" His eyebrow was raised and his arms were crossed, he had also taken a step back just in case I was crazy or something.

I took a big step forward so we were closer and nodded, "I want to help you." His other eyebrow rose to join the first one, "even if it's murder?"

I took both of his hands in mine and squeezed them, "let's go get caught red handed," I said with a wink.

He chuckled; it was an amazing sound, I felt the blood rushing to my face as I caught a glimpse of a small smile resting on his lips, a real one, "before that, let's go to class."

Smiling at him I led him to the door and opened it up for him, there was still nobody in the halls but I didn't really notice, he was going one way and I was about to go the other. Before he turned away I called out to him, "meet me for lunch?"

He turned to me, a smirk covering his face and I almost melted, "sure, Naruto." He replied before walking off.

I assure you, that time, I did melt.

"Urgh." I mumbled to myself softly as I took my books out of my bag, "what classes do I have next?"

"History and Biology." I jumped slightly as I voice appeared suddenly from behind me before a body leant on my neighbour lockers. I looked up to see a familiar smiling blond.

"Don't scare me like that." I mumbled as I took out my books and put them into my bag as he closed my locker for me.

"How did you know what classes I have and why are you here?" I asked with a scowl. He pinched my cheek slightly before I swatted him away, "someone's mister grumpy pants!" he cooed at me jokingly.

I flicked him in the head, "I'm just tired from all the smiling I've done today, idiot, now answer the question." I explained, it was weird, I had never been this close to anyone before, not even family, maybe it was because of my optimistic mood today but I felt really relaxed around Naruto.

He laughed as we began walking to the canteen, "I came to pick you up for lunch and I also have History and Biology but we're only in the same Bio class."

I scowled at him, "I don't need an escort." I replied simply, I didn't need him to explain why I had never noticed him in my classes before, I never notice anyone.

"Oh, Sasuke, Sasuke, Sasuke," Naruto repeated as he shook his head softly in mock disappointment, "don't think of me as a escort, think of me as a knight who has to protect the delicate princess on her journey." He expressed gallantly with a wink and a soft kiss to the back of my hand. As soon as I felt the brief contact I was swatting his head as hard as I could while furiously denying the fact that I had ever been flustered.

"Don't do that!" I hissed at him as he picked himself up from the floor with a chuckle, "sorry, sorry, I'll try not to defile you again princess," he said quickly before running off to the canteen with me hot on his trail.

I was getting incredulous looks; the Sasuke Uchiha was chasing an unknown blond boy with, what was that? A smile on his face? Oh the horror! I laughed as Naruto slowed down and let me hit him lightly before we entered the lunch hall, I didn't care what they thought, really, when did I ever?
