So I got quite a bit of views and followers and a couple comments wanting me to continue. So here you go! Chapter 3 :) hope you enjoy and feel free to leave a comment and favorite it if you like it.
Sakura walked back into the theater room in a stunned silence. She went and sat next to Temari and stared at her, once again refilled, popcorn bucket. She was just as much surprised as she was heartbroken. She had caught Sasuke kissing someone else. And that 'someone' was a boy! And at that, the boy was the overly hyper active idiot Naruto.
"Hey, Sakura. You ok?" Temari elbowed her lightly looking at her worryingly. Sakura didn't know if the others knew, she doubted it. She also doubted Sasuke wanted them to know. So she just kept quiet and nodded. Her throat burned with threatening tears, so she grabbed a hand full of popcorn and shoved it in her mouth. Hoping the food will force down her feelings.
Naruto walked away from Sasuke embarrassed. How come he let himself do that, did he even liked Sasuke that way? He'd never thought about it before, and Sasuke was a guy! I mean he had to admit he was a good looking guy and all, ok a VERY good looking guy. The more he thought about the more he started thinking, he might actually be attracted to him.
"We're going to miss the movie if we don't hurry up." Sasuke mentioned. Naruto took this as an escape and started to walk past him.
"Oh, yeah, we should go then." he said speed walking away. He came to a sudden stop when Sasuke grabbed hold of his arm. He turned to look at him, his face still slightly flushed.
Sasuke didn't know why he had grabbed Naruto's arm. His body just acted on it's own, not wanting Naruto to leave. He knew he didn't want Naruto to be upset with him for just kissing him for no reason, but would he be moving to fast if he confessed his feelings?
"Dobe." Sasuke said letting go of Naruto's arm and walking by. Naruto stared after him, his heart sank. The kiss probably didn't mean anything. He sighed and looked at the doors, he really didn't feel like seeing a movie now. Why was this getting him all upset, it was Sasuke for crying out loud. He was just a friend. He turned back around and saw Sasuke turning to look back at him with an eyebrow raised. He smiled halfheartedly and started walking to catch up to him.
They walked in together just as the movie started. They quietly made it to the top where Sasuke saw everybody.
"Hey, you made it." Kiba whispered to Naruto. He nodded and smiled at him as he went to sit down beside Sakura. She glared at him as he sat down, unaware that she knew what happened earlier. Sasuke sat down by Naruto and they began to watch their movie.
After the movie everyone went home, without Sasuke nor Naruto speaking a word to each other. When Sasuke got home he heard voices coming from the living room. He walked by and saw Deidara sitting in the middle of the floor and Sasori on the couch with Itachi.
"Hey kid!" Deidara greeted Sasuke. Sasori looked up from his sketch book at him. He was always drawing his next puppet design. Sasuke couldn't believe he actually made a living out of making those creepy things. He nodded in response and turned to go upstairs.
"How did the movie go?" Itachi hollered to him.
"Oh! You went a movie, un? With who?" Deidara questioned. Deidara, Sasori and Itachi had been good friends for a while, so he knew it was rare for Sasuke to actually go out with friends. Sasuke ignored them and continued upstairs. He went in his room grabbed clothes and went to the bathroom. He locked the door and stared into the mirror. What the hell had he been thinking? Why did he kiss Naruto? Why did Naruto kiss him back? He must have just been caught up in the moment or something.
He ran his hand through his hair and went to turn on the water. He took off his shirt and pulled his phone out of his pant pocket. He secretly was hoping he had a text from Naruto he had somehow missed. He stared at the blank screen for a second before clicking it on and setting it down on the counter disappointed. He continued to strip then step into the shower. He just stood there thinking, letting the hot water run down his back.
After his shower he had come to the conclusion that Naruto was just going along with it. He didn't actually have any feelings for him. He just hoped he would still talk to him tomorrow at school. He wouldn't peruse his love for the blonde boy anymore. He got to kiss him, and if he was being honest with himself, he wanted more. But if Naruto felt the same he would have said something that night. But he didn't.
He laid down in bed with so many negative thoughts weighing down his heart. He hardly slept that night, he just couldn't get comfortable and his mind wouldn't shut off. When his alarm clock woke him up that morning he groaned rolling over on his back. He just stared at the ceiling as his alarm continued to beep in the back ground. The morning sunlight seeped through the crack between the dark blue curtains. Light blue sheets lay crumpled at the bottom of the bed, a black and dark blue striped comforter draped across his legs. He stared at the plain white ceiling that matched all four walls that enclosed him. The constant nasally beep in the background slowly starting to aggravate him.
"Sasuke! Turn your fucking alarm clock off!" came a yell from Itachi in the next room, along with a bang on the wall. The thin walls made any noise audible from one room to the next. Sasuke slowly turned to face the offending object. He lifted his arm and hit a button shutting it up. He rolled back over and continued to stare at the ceiling as if it had some sort of hidden message. He didn't want to get up, he didn't want to go to school. He didn't want to face Naruto. If Naruto was upset by the kiss, and didn't talk to him, he didn't know what he would do. What he could do.
He couldn't loose Naruto as a friend. He was his first friend after his parents accident. Yeah, at first he hated the annoying brat. After the loss of his parents he just wanted to be alone. He shut out any old friends he had, he even shut out his own brother. But he grew fond of the constant sunny mood Naruto always had over time, and knew he was there for him if ever he needed him. Loosing him, was not an option.
Neither was laying in bed dreading it. He had to go to school and fix what he did. Apologize. Say it was just a stupid prank. And things would get back to normal. Or so he hoped. He just hoped Naruto would give him time to tell out his pathetic excuse he had come up with.
Naruto walked down the road with his headphones blaring in his ears. When the chorus came on he started to sing along with it.
I don't wanna be told to grow up
and I don't wanna change
I just wanna have fun
I don't wanna be told to grow up
and I don't wanna change
so you better give up
cause I'm not gonna change
I don't wanna grow up
When Naruto to had gotten home that night he was determined to forget about the kiss. And he almost did, if he hadn't dreamed of it. 4 times. He would have a dream replaying the kiss and then would wake up as Sasuke pulled away. He would force himself to go back to sleep just to have the same dream again. Each time he woke up with an embarrassing boner. Even though he lived alone, the thought that he was getting hard by a dream of his best friend was embarrassing. He felt like Sasuke somehow knew, although that was impossible. Eventually, after the fourth replay of the dream, he decided to just go ahead and get up, since it was already 5:30. he would had to have gotten up in 30 minutes anyway, and he had to do something about his hard on before he went to school.
He looked at the ground and flushed at the thought. Usually when he pleasured himself it was to Sakura or some hot girl from a porn mag. But no matter how hard he tried, Sasuke wouldn't leave his head. He hated to admit it, even just to himself, but the thought of Sasuke touching him like that, made him completely turned on. He shook his head trying to rid his mind of the thoughts. He could not get a boner while walking to school, that could only be the most humiliating thing ever.
He walked into school taking out his ear buds and wrapping them around his Ipod. He saw Sasuke walking into the classroom down the hall and flushed.
Ok Naruto. Pull yourself together. Be normal.
He took a deep breath, let it out slowly and walked toward the class room.
"Hey!" he greeted Sasuke. Just like any normal day. Sasuke whipped his head up to see Naruto standing by his desk smiling his giant goofy smile like always.
"Hi." Naruto's heart fluttered in his chest. He stared into those dark eyes, getting lost in them.
"What?" Sasuke asked. Naruto realized he had been staring and blushed scratching the back of his head. Trying to smile as wide as he could to hide the pink tint on his cheeks.
"Just, sort of zoned out. Sorry." he said quickly turning around and heading to his seat. Sasuke inwardly smiled. Of course not on the outside though, that would be suspicious. Naruto wasn't mad with him, or annoyed. He seemed just like normal. He was relieved by this, yet slightly upset. So the kiss really meant nothing to him.
Naruto on the other hand was sitting in his desk having a mini heart attack. Why was his heart reacting so strongly towards him. Just one look from Sasuke made his heart do back flips. And there was this feeling in his stomach. I guess it's what people would call butterflies. But why people liked getting butterflies in their stomachs he would never know. It made him so nervous he wanted to puke. He peeked over at Sasuke and saw a hint of a smile playing on his lips, as he looked down at his paperwork on his desk.
What was he happy about? Naruto wondered. Could it be him. His heart jumped again at the possibility of the thought. Stupid heart. Stop it. It's not right.
Through out the rest of the period Naruto kept steeling glances at Sasuke. He noticed how fluently his hand flew across the paper when he wrote. How, when he thought about something, he would put the pencil to his lower lip, slightly pushing it to the side. He then would notice how soft his pink lips looked. How beautiful his porcelain skin looked next to his dark hair that hung over his face when leaned down to write.
He shook his head. Ridiculous. All these thoughts. They're ridiculous. He looked down at his blank paper, then at the clock at the wall. He hadn't wrote a single word down, and he was suppose to have three paragraphs in 10 minutes. He wrote his name at the top of the paper. He would get some of it done to turn in. He wrote a couple sentences and sighed.
He doubted Sasuke would feel the same way. The kiss was probably a game to him. Nothing more but to just mess with his head. Which he had done, all to well. What was he suppose to believe? The thoughts in his head telling him that this was ridiculous, or the thumping in his heart telling him love wasn't something of the mind. His brain told him all the logical reasons to not like him, while his heart yelled fuck logic.
He zoned back in and as he put his pencil back on the paper to continue writing the bell rang.
"Ugh!" Naruto groaned out loud. He was so screwed. He had spent the whole time thinking on other things instead of his work. Sasuke looked over and chuckled at him.
"Didn't finish it huh?" he asked walking over to the frustrated blonde. Naruto glared up at him.
"Shut up." he responded which only earned him a smirk from the raven boy above him. He stood from his desk grabbing his incomplete paper roughly, crinkling the side of it. He roughly pushed past Sasuke to the teachers desk. He was angry at Sasuke. He was the one who made him feel this confusion. There was no confusion until that kiss, or was there? He slammed the paper down on the teachers desk.
"This is not complete Naruto. You do know that right?" the teacher asked.
"Of course I know!" he yelled at the white haired man behind the desk. The same teacher from their English class year had moved up and was their teacher again this year. So he knew how Naruto was and Naruto was already too used to the man to care what he thought of his rudeness.
"Well, I can see you're angry, but why yell at me." the man smirked, but you could only tell from the uplifting from his cheeks and the slight squinting of his eyes. The lower part of his face was covered with a mask. No one understood why, and everyone was to scared to ask.
"Leave me alone Kakashi." Naruto turned to leave. He saw Sasuke looking at him from a distance and it just pissed him off more.
Sasuke stood there staring at the fuming blonde. Had realization just hit him. Was he now mad at him for the kiss. That would be reasonable, yet it still hurt. His chest ached cause of that thought as the boy left the class room. And he knew he wouldn't see him again to talk to him until lunch. He walked up to the teachers desk and laid his paper down. He was turning to leave when Kakashi stopped him.
"So what's got him riled up?" he asked. Sasuke shrugged. Not looking back but not walking away.
"Well, he sure didn't spend the entire block writing. And you only spent the first half actually writing. You both have something on ya'lls mind. And by the way he kept looking at you through the whole class, am I right to assume that it is a similar something?" Kakashi was good. He was observant. Always had been. Noticing how Sasuke's looks would always linger slightly longer on Naruto then anyone else. The way how he would argue at the mention of tutoring anyone, except when it was for Naruto.
"Nothing Mr. Hatake. I'll fix it." And Sasuke was just as observant. He knew by the way Kakashi looked at the two of them that he had noticed his feelings. Sasuke turned to give his teacher a firm nod, and walked out of the class.
The rest of the day went by in a blur to Naruto. His thoughts had him in and out of a daze most of the time. Sasuke hadn't been at lunch because he had to go to a student president meeting. Of course Mr. Perfect / Mr. Popular was the student president. Not that Sasuke wanted to be, but it looked good on a his transcript, so he accepted the role.
When they got to their last period, Naruto's brain was fried. He had been fighting the urge to look for Sasuke everywhere the whole lunch time, and failing, only to realize later that he was at the meeting. He had come to the conclusion that he wasn't mad at Sasuke, but at his own feelings. For not being able to figure out if he like him or not. One would think that it was easy. Just decide how you feel. But, was he actually attracted to him, or the kiss. The thought of love? Was he just attracted to the thought that someone did like him? He needed to decide if he actually cared about Sasuke or not. But really what did that matter when he didn't like him back.
The whole situation infuriated him, so when he failed to greet any of his friends as he entered his class they all looked at him funny. Sasuke sighed, accepting the fact that Naruto now hated him. While Shikamaru and Kiba looked over at him curiously. Naruto sat in his desk and just stared at his hands sitting on his desk. Kiba and Shikamrau walked over to him.
"Hey, whats up?" Kiba asked. Naruto was to lost in thought to hear him. What if he decided that he did love him. He liked that thought.
"Hello." Kiba tried again. Naruto could see himself with Sasuke so easily. Although they were so different, they were compatible. They each had what the other didn't, completing each other. Making up for what the other lacked.
*Smack!*
"Oww! What the hell was that for you asshole!" Naruto yelled at his abuser holding the back of his head.
"You were in some sort of trance, I had to wake you up." Kiba replied as if he had not done a thing wrong.
"I don't think I have ever seen you think that hard before." Shikamaru added. Naruto just shot blue eyed daggers at the two of them.
"I got an F in English. My first paper and already failing." He lied. Quite fluently actually, he was kind of proud about that. The three guys stood around Naruto's desk talking until the teacher came in the room and they went to their seats.
Naruto made it a point to not look at Sasuke the whole class period. As soon as the bell rand he ran out of the class room first and went straight to the bathroom to hide. Why was he hiding? He didn't want to face Sasuke, that's why. What was he suppose to say to him? How was he suppose to act? He didn't know so, until he did he didn't want to get stuck in a confrontation with him. Eventually he emerged from the bathroom and went home.
For the next week things went that way. Naruto steeling secret glances at Sasuke, but avoiding him at all costs. All the while Sasuke was thinking of a way to talk to Naruto. Something he could say to make things right again. He figured Naruto would be mad at him, or weirded out. But the fact that he was completely avoiding him was stupid. It just angered him.
Friday had been four days since the kiss. And the memory was just as clear and vivid in Naruto's head. His heart still ran a little marathon whenever he thought of it, and did acrobats when he saw him. He had come to the conclusion that the feeling wasn't going away anytime soon. That he did... actually... have a crush on the Uchiha. But now what? Sasuke didn't feel the same so why would he tell him? He would just think that Naruto was a weirdo and ignore him. But isn't that what Naruto had been doing? I guess it's different if you're the one being ignored besides you ignoring someone else.
Naruto walked into his last period and was immediately ambushed by Kiba.
"Did you hear about the new girl!" he shouted at him.
"School just started. There are a lot of new girls, which one?" he questioned.
"No, no, no. I mean NEW! She just got here today." he stared rambling on about what she looked like but Naruto could care less. He was lost in his own mind.
"Doesn't she sound amazing!" Kiba exclaimed right in his face. He sighed annoyed and sat down in his desk.
"Sure." he said nonchalantly.
Kiba kept talking about her and annoyed Naruto turned his head away from him. Which ended in him looking directly at Sasuke, who was looking directly at him. He blushed and quickly looked down.
"Hey, what's wrong with you man. Your acting weird." the dog boy bent down trying to look up at his face. Naruto quickly hid his blushing face with his hand.
"Yeah, I mean, no. I think I'm sick or something." He sort of lied. Looking at Sasuke made him so happy, mad, annoyed, nervous, and confused that he just wanted to be sick. He stood from his desk and walked out of the class room, excusing himself to the teacher to the nurses office. Sasuke watched worried. What was wrong with him?
Rest of the class went by without Naruto ever reappearing. Sasuke waited for him to pass by outside the school gates but he never came through. He pulled his phone out and stared at it. Should he text him? Maybe call. Would it be weird? He sighed and put the phone up to his ear.
*Ring*
*Ring*
*Ring*
Naruto looked down at his phone. The nurse let him leave early because she needed to be somewhere anyways. She just wrote it off as him being ill, and sent him on his merry way. He was all to happy to obliged. He laid on his couch looking at his phone. Sasuke. His heart beat sped up. Why would he be calling? Did he care to wonder wear he was? The thought brought a smile to his face.
"Teme! What's up?" he answered as cheerfully as he could manage. He was still in a sour mood. He didn't know if he wanted to cry, punch something or giggle like a school girl in love. Which then brought him back to wanting to punch something, like himself for having such thoughts.
"Where are you?" Sasuke's voice answered through the phone. He sounded annoyed.
"Uh.. haha... home. Ya see, the nurse said I was to sick to stay at school so-"
"Bullshit." Sasuke muttered.
"Excuse me! What makes you think you know how I feel? Don't question the doctor." Naruto exclaimed. No he wasn't actually sick, but Sasuke didn't know that.
"One, she isn't a doctor. She is a school nurse. Two, you hardly looked to sick to be at school the last time I saw you." Sasuke argued. Why did he always have to be so legitimate sounding with everything he said? Just the way he said it! He could give a terrible excuse for murdering somebody, but say it in such a voice that it sounded justified.
"Screw you Teme! I don't feel well so I'm at home. Now you know where I am at. Why do you care anyways?" Naruto questioned.
"You've been avoiding me." Cane a monotone voice from the other end. Sasuke didn't want Naruto to hear the heartbreak in his voice. So he kept it as unemotional as possible.
"N-No I haven't. What are you talking about?" Naruto nervously replied.
"You have to." Sasuke said. He turned from the gates of the high school and started walking.
"Well.." Naruto had nothing to say. Yeah, he had been avoiding him. But what was he suppose to say? 'Hey I felt it to weird to face you because all I can think about is kissing you again and I just want to jump your bones whenever I see you.' Yeah, no.
"I'm coming over." Sasuke told him already heading that way.
"Wh-what? Why?" Naruto fumbled, jumping off the couch.
"To talk. Hang out, we're friends correct?" Sasuke said simply.
"Uh, yeah. Yeah, come on over." Naruto told him as he ran around his house picking up dirty clothes and random objects thrown here and there. With that Sasuke hung up on him.
"Why can't he say bye like a normal person. He just hangs up on me." Naruto mumbled to himself as he tidied his apartment. He had been thinking so much about the kiss, but Sasuke probably hadn't wasted another thought on it. And here he was being a weirdo on the phone and a jerk ignoring him. He was in the bathroom fixing up his hair when there was a knock on the door. He looked at his reflection and sighed. What was he going to do?
What is he going to do. Find out in the next chapter :P I'll post as soon as possible but I am starting school so I might be a bit busy. But it will be in within the week! I promise. :) thank you all so much for all the comments. It makes me so happy to see all of them.
