I am not gay

K1 (N3)

I own an original story, this is not that story.

The moment our head hit the pillow, he was fast asleep, but I was wide awake. Getting up from the bed, I looked at the clock, noticing I still had so much to do before the ball. Quickly logging into my MSN account, the one I kept hidden from Naruto, I sent a message to my old pen-pall raven37 "ready for the ball?" I asked him. This is my first chance to actually meet the guy in real life and I was looking forward to wandering around as myself for once.

Putting in my color contacts, I blinked a few times to let them slip into position, when I hear my MSN buddy answering back. "Almost. I can't believe we are finally gonna meet."

Feeling my playful nature come up, I replied "Me neither, but the time has finally come. How about we play a game?"

I then proceeded to grab the red hair dye, and paint my hair. I quickly flushed my hands when I heard another ding. Rushing over to the laptop, I read "What is it with you and your games? Oh, well, I'll play along."

As quick as I could, I typed up my idea. "Neither of us knows the other's real name, and we won't use it tonight. The first one after tonight who calls the other out by his pen name wins a dinner for two of his choice and the other's pay. And don't you roll your eyes at me."

Then I wrapped my hair in a once white towel I kept just for this purpose. Then while I was putting on my jeans, I got my answer. "I hope you dance as well as you know me. And I hope for your sake you know me as well as you think you do, cause this is gonna cost you a dinner."

buttoning up my jacket, I reply "We'll see, but I'm ready. I'll be the one with the fox mask wearing the pendent you gave me when I turned twelve."

I was out the door before he had a chance to reply. Living on the bottom floor, I just slipped out of the window, and made my way to the main hall, while strapping up my fox mask. As I walked the final stretch to the door, I saw a hooded man with a raven mask, coal black eyes, but what really caught my eye was the copper fox brooch he used to fasten his cape. For one moment, we both lost all semblance of grace, and sprinted towards each other for a hug long overdue. One that lasted far too short for my tastes before he backed off and spoke "Pleasure to finally meet you, Kurama." holding his hand out to me.

"The pleasure is all mine, Raven." I answered, shaking it, before turning to the door "but it's already past ten and I still haven't had a drop, so shall we?"

"Wait, you wanna get drunk first day at school?" I heard myself ask the fox, despite knowing the answer

"nope, just tipsy enough to have fun. And I can do that, cause I know you will get me home if I can't limit myself." Kurama stated matter-of-factly.

"I have know idea which dorm you live." he said to his defence, knowing I would treat it like an invitation.

"Building 5, floor six, rear-most room, I attached a label to my keys. And I said don't roll your eyes at me." I spoke casually, once again not needing to look at him "Care for a dance before I get too drunk to move elegantly?"

"Don't you think it would be awkward to dance with a man?" he asked, looking at me in confusion.

Turning up the charm, I pulled him close and whispered in his ear, watching a few bunnies slowly approach "every fan girl you have is in this room, and has long since recognized you. The hood may hide your haircut, but not the bangs falling over your face. This bluish black is hard to miss. Having this dance with me implies you're gay more then saying you are ever could. That should scare away the fangirls."

Then we were surrounded "I hope you can lead, cause I have not danced in years." he spoke letting me lead him to the dance floor.

I could not resist making a pun "Better run, bunnies, there's a fox in da house and foxes hunt rabbits at night, and not to have fun with them." to be honest, I was just buying myself some extra time to rehearse my dance moves, but he doesn't need to know that.

We danced through the strict ballroom numbers that were played, the heated latins, the slow shuffles, and when most of the teachers were satisfied and left, we grinded to the beat as the heat turned up a few notches. And when the last notes finally died down, I kissed him right on the lips.

A spark ran through me at finally just doing it, but it also jolted him back to reality. He quickly pushed me away, ears bright red, yelling "WHAT THE FUCK"

"Relax, Raven," I replied, smirking "what did you expect when a gay teen asks you for a dance? You, the hottest guy at the ball." then the smirk got sadistic, "Especially when you have known each other for years already."

Sasuke took a quick step back, but composed himself, and hit me dead in the eye. I deserved it so I didn't fight back. "You," he said in a deadly calm tone, "are worse than any fangirl I ever met. I trusted you." then he turned and walked away. As soon as he had left my line of sight, I made a b-line for the bar to get wasted. Guess I finally know what your heartbreak felt like, Naru.

I sat there at a bar, ignoring anyone but the bartender for a good hour or two before I got up and swaggered my way home. The last thing I remember before falling asleep was the alarm saying 3 am.

A/N curious where this leads? Who the mystery heartbreak was? And how Sasuke is gonna react? Next time...
