Pairing: SasuNaruSasu

Warning: Fluff, slang and bullies

Disclaimer: Naruto still does not belong to me; I am merely a wannabe author that likes to misuse other peoples work for her own selfish fantasies

Summary: Three years have passed since the boys met eachother, with only handful of meetings in between... No worries though, everybody knows you can't keep those two idiots apart...

A/N: The third installment/chapter of my fluffy fanfic, dedicated to the SNS 2k15. If you still don't know what I'm talking about, go visit their blong on tumblr... Just type sns2k15 and you'll find them... No excuses, just do it.

Anyways, if there are any major typing mistakes, please let me know... And just to warn you, a missing -g in the gerund, an added -s on the verb, mah, ya, dun't, sum and things like that are not mistakes... I'm just trying to charm Naruto's redneck-y speech.


"Why?" A small whisper echoed throughout the nearly empty classroom, almost inaudibly.

Petite, blonde boy, who was busy wiping the board clean, turned his baby blues around curiously to face the owner of the voice and his annoyed, arranged in a scowl, face.

"Why what Sas'ke?"

Uchiha Sasuke huffed, raising his chin up.

"Don't play an idiot, Naruto!" The shorter of the two smiled queasily, raising his free hand to scratch behind his head; an action Sasuke recognized as a nervous one.

"Heh-he, I gots no..."

"Why," Sasuke repeated, this time strongly but slowly "do you let them do these things to you?".

Naruto's actions paused and his arms fell beside his body.

Sasuke was probably reckoning back to the incident that happened just now; the girl who was supposed to be on a cleaning duty with Naruto, left early, not doing any work, calling her partner on duty a loser and saying how he stank of stale.

Naruto hadn't stank of stale since he came to Tokyo, five months ago.

"Oh.."

Naruto's fair eyebrows scrunched a bit, whilst he was pushing himself down the memory lane.

Nearly half a year ago, Minato's got a job offer in the USA, which he gladly accepted, managing to secure another one for his wife as well. That left Naruto all alone, which both minded, so they decided to move him to the capital, where his great aunt resided...

All the friend Naruto had in Konoha lost contact with him... all but one, Naruto thought fondly; he still got Sas'ke.

The moody, shy, tsundere Sas'ke that Naruto absolutely adored and who was the only one, besides Naruto, to actually be thrilled with Naruto's predicament.

Naruto's smiles became stronger and lighter, especially when April came and the two managed to convince Tsunade to enroll Naruto into the same Middle school Sasuke went to.

In return for that, Naruto promised to always work hard and do his absolute best, which he kept. Come first report card, Naruto was in the top three of the school's best.

Only when the school started did Naruto realize who Sasuke really was... Well, according to the school population, Sasuke Uchiha was the richest, hottest and smartest boy, who actually had lots of friends.

Naruto took it all in stride, feeling happy Sasuke finally got the attention he always craved.

He merrily introduced himself to Sasuke's group of friends, hoping they could be the same.

That was not the case; the minute they noticed Sasuke was more relaxed, sociable and truly happy with Naruto around, they began to bother Naruto with name tags and silly acts of bullying. Not that it bothered Naruto, honestly.

Mostly, fun was made on the account of Naruto's accent; to which he responded with getting Itachi to teach him proper etiquette and language.

The only one to really notice and mind was Sasuke, who told him that on one of their sleepovers. Naruto reckoned he felt betrayed somehow; not anyone would take time to learn rusty, old phrases just for anybody.

From Sasuke's cute pouts and scowls, Naruto learned his raven haired friend really liked his speech patterns.

That only motivated Naruto to do, be better.

Not that it changed anything; they still were envious of him and Naruto could do nothing but cackle at their petty jealousy.

He put the eraser down before slowly reaching before skillfully creeping towards Sasuke.

"Well, I dun't really mind." Sasuke opened his mouth to retort, but Naruto hushed him, letting his fingers to entangle themselves at the back of Sasuke's head.

"I mean yeah, sumtimes their words hurt," He could see Sasuke's lips quirking up with the return of his drawn out voice, coupled with the intense blush on the pale cheeks. "But, I dun't mind. It just means they like Sas'ke that much."

Sasuke slithered his body closer to Naruto's, now both standing chest to chest, reaching his hand to grab onto the orange blazer. He felt safe whenever he did it, safe, but quite embarrassed.

Naruto continued:

"I wanna get along with Sas'ke's friends coz they make you happy. Sas'ke likes them and they make Sas'ke smile, which means they really, really are good peeps."

'More like laughs at them' Sasuke mussed for a brief second before getting lost in that blue gaze yet again.

"I like Sas'ke too. And I wanna make Sas'ke happy. I knows," He replied to Sasuke's unspoken words "that you're tha happiest with me, but Sas'ke... other people matter to ya... Dun't lie to meh. You waited for soooo long to have real friends at school and I ain't takin' that away from ya!"

Sasuke's cheeks, ears and neck reddened furiously and his whole body shuddered with pleasant chills.

"Naruto..." He started, but his voice broke before he could say anything.

'Naruto you stupid, lovable idiot...'

Sasuke smiled a true, carefree smile, meant only for his best friend, his better half.

Naruto grinned in response, already knowing everything Sasuke didn't tell him.

"So dun't be so rough with them, Imma tough boy, I cans handle them!"

The Uchiha youngest chuckled, letting go of the blazer and stepping around Naruto.

"Fine. In return, you have to eat lunch with me everyday from now on." He reached for his bag, feeling the blonde following his movements. "Even when you make other friends."

'Especially then.' He thought darkly.

Naruto's smile illuminated the room and Sasuke turned around just in time to be enclosed in his warm embrace.


A/N: And cut until further notice (aka April).
