Get a Life 36
Naruto groaned loudly in annoyance. He had this all planed out in advanced. He even had a plan for how the date was gonna go. So why was it when his date traded himself out for Sasuke, he suddenly wasn't able find something to wear? Why was that new shirt he just got no longer good enough? Gah! He threw it across the room. No no no! It was too casual! He needed to look nice for Crist sakes! They were going to a fancy theater! Not the god damn mall! He then opened the closet and shoved everything to the side and began pulling one article of clothing to the other side one at a time. No…to flashy…no… no…did that even fit anymore? Naruto ran his fingers through his hair. This shouldn't of been the stressful part of the date and yet here he was about to pull his hair out.
"You know, you could just go out like that."
Kiba smirked wiggling his eyebrows in a suggestive matter. Naruto looked down at his bare chest then glared at him playfully.
"I don't think the people there will approve."
"Who's approval are you after? Theirs or Sasuke's?"
Naruto sighed and flopped backwards on his bed and laid there. Kiba rolled his eyes.
"Now what?"
"That's just it." Naruto covered his eyes with his arms "The approval I got…was my boyfriend saying to go out with somebody else."
"And that's AWESOME!" Naruto jolted up and looked at him angrily, which of course Kiba ignored "Do you know how many people would LOVE to be in a situation like that? To be in a relationship AND still go out with other people?"
"Or it could mean what we have isn't special!"
"Well yeah, it wasn't."
Naruto was blown away by Kiba's comment. And pissed off.
"Aren't I not supposed to talk to you unless you apologize to Sai?"
"I suppose that's true…" Kiba glanced up tilting his head to the side as he headed towards the door. "I mean, surely you don't need my help finding something to wear." Naruto's eyes widened in fear "After all, what you wear on the first date is vital. It determines wither or not you care enough to impress them and leave's a HUGE impression on wither or not they'd like to be seen in public with you ever again." Naruto twitched. "So OF COURSE you thought all this out in advance. It is, after all, your big moment here. Miss this up you may never get a chance like this EVER again." Kiba then hanged on the door frame smiling at him. "Anyway, enjoy your loneliness, my friend! Abenaza." Then left the room.
"KIBA! WAIT!" Naruto ran after him and lunged at him trapping him in a desperate hug, "I need you, I need you!"
Kiba smirked.
"HOW badly do you need me?"
"I begging for Crist sakes!"
"Hmmm…" Kiba pretended to pounder as he rubbed his chin. "I don't know…ANYONE can beg."
"KIBA!"
"Tell yeah what, I'll help IF we're friends again."
"Aren't we already friends?"
"You're right, let me rephrase that. Start treating me like one." Naruto looked up at him in confusion and Kiba sighed. "WITHOUT apologizing to that damn Sai."
"SERIOUSLY!?" Naruto pulled back "You'd go THIS far to go out of your way to avoid an APPOLOGY!? It's just a simple word Kiba! ONE! SORRY!"
"I just don't feel like saying it." Kiba shrugged.
Naruto groaned as he pinched the rim of his noise. Why did Kiba have to be so damn stubborn?
"FINE! …. I'll pretend it never happened."
"And I'll pretend to be your FABULOUSLY gay friend who tells you what to wear." Kiba smiled delightfully as he walked back into the room only to stop as he noticed something on the floor. "Does that even fit you anymore?"
Again Naruto groaned. This was gonna be a loooong day.
"You look nice."
"I damn well better…for Kiba's sake." Naruto grumbled.
Naruto had met up with Sasuke in front of the theater, which was great since Sasuke had already taken the liberty of waiting in line when he arrived. Which mind you was about an hour ago. Sasuke smiled nervously. It was a good thing he was paranoid. Otherwise they'd be ALL the way in the back of the line, which stretched all the way around the block.
They stood there in silence as the line slowly inched its way to the entrance. Neither really knew what to say to each other.
"So uh…" Sasuke rubbed the back of his neck. "what is it we're going to see exactly?"
Then it dawned on him. Had he gone on a date with Neji he would of ALREADY missed it up.
"I … I have no clue."
Sasuke looked at him flabbergast.
"Seriously?"
"They were selling out fast and I just bought them without thinking!"
"So we may or may not see a crappy show?"
"…maybe?"
There was silence and Naruto felt nervous. Never in all his life had he felt so stupid. Sasuke's probably thinking about how much of a waist of time this is…Naruto thought doubtingly. But just then Sasuke snorted. Then burst out laughing. Not sure how to respond to such a reaction Naruto just stood there staring at him.
"It's not THAT funny…"
"Yes it is!" Sasuke managed to comment in between his burst of laughter. Naruto blushed poutingly. Now he felt stupid AND humiliated.
"Shut up…"
"I can't!" Sasuke then looked Naruto in the eyes and laughed even more. "And you're blushing! How adorable!"
If his face could get any redder it did.
"I'm not blushing! I'm-! …Uh, mad with anger!"
"Ah uh."
"I'm serious!"
"Riiiiight."
They then showed their tickets and walked inside to take their seats.
"…Wow."
"That was…intense."
Naruto then looked at the cover of the pamphlet. It did look like a tragedy at all!
"I can't believe he's into these sort of things."
Sasuke lowered his head. Oh yeah, this was supposed to be Naruto and Neji's date… not his. Though…he smiled, he could make it his.
"Come on."
He then grabbed hold of Naruto's hand.
"Wha-? Sasuke where we going!?"
"Ch, like I'd ruin the surprise." Naruto pouted and Sasuke chuckled at his response. "Just…trust me."
Naruto just stood there in awe. He'd lived here for most of his life and never had he seen this before. Nor knew about it.
"It's beautiful."
Sasuke rolled his eyes.
"I know."
Naruto's eyes twinkled in excitement.
"All you can eat…RAMEN!"
And with that dashed into the restraint. Sasuke smiled. If there was one way to win a man's heart, it was through their stomach. That and it wasn't just any restraint. It was thee restraint. It was on the top floor of the tallest building with glass walls all around to see all of the city and it's glory. It probably even had the best view.
Right as Naruto had entered he realized right away how high end and classy it was and worried. He didn't prepare himself for going out to a place like this.
"Is this really alright?"
"What do you mean?"
Naruto bit his lip. How to word this…uh
"I didn't bring that much with me…"
Sasuke smiled and patted him on the back.
"Not a problem. Think of this as…a thank you for the tickets."
"…did you even like it?"
"Actually I did."
"Seriously?" Naruto asked a little in disbelief.
"I like tragedy's. Really brings out one's emotions."
"All it brought out were never ending amounts of tears!" Naruto wiped his eyes. "Seriously I haven't cried like that since-" Naruto's actions slowed down and his voice started dying "since…" He just stood there staring into space.
"Come on." Naruto snapped from his trance as Sasuke took him by the hand "Let's get a seat."
Sasuke was in luck, the minute food had arrived Naruto seemed to of moved on from his state of funk and was back to his merry old self. He smiled. He was glade he was able to make Naruto happy…even if it meant having chipmunk cheeks full of food.
"It's not gonna run away. I promise."
Naruto rolled his eyes.
"You clearly don't appreciate good food." He then pointed towards Sasuke's plate with his chop sticks. "You hardly touched your plate."
"No, I do. I just bask in it by savoring it slowly in my mouth."
"Whatever." Naruto shrugged as he lifted his bowl and slurped down the broth. He then licked his lips. "Damn this is good." He then smirked. "I'll have another! Waiter!"
Sasuke chuckled and took another bite.
"Now where are we going?"
Naruto chuckled as he let Sasuke hold his hand and walk along downtown.
"Well right now we're simply walking off dinner."
Naruto snorted.
"You mean like exercising? Don't you think you're skinny enough?"
He then elbowed Sasuke's side playfully and Sasuke jabbed him back.
"Dope."
Naruto laughed. This was…nice. Just him…Sasuke…
They then turned the conner and Naruto froze in place. Confused Sasuke looked back at him.
"Naruto?"
Naruto's expression made Sasuke's heart slump, he looked so hurt.
"No…" Naruto whispered "It can't be…"
