Behind Blue Eyes [Discontinued]

XIV

A quick Author's note. (I know that not a lot of people will read these and, to those who do, thank you) I try not to do a lot of Author's notes because it's just wasted space. Well, in some people's opinions, that is.

Anyway, when I came to write the new chapter, I saw that I have over 3K reads! Like, how in the holy name of all the waffles did this happen?! I never would have thought that this dumb little story would actually be this popular. When I came out of my shell to openly share this with the world, at first it was for shits and giggles and I thought I'd get a few reads and maybe a vote or two and now it's just... Wow.

I haven't been updating much lately, or doing my usual disclaimers, and I had a question; should I try and regulate my schedual for the story? And, if I do, should I bring back the disclaimers? No? Okay...

Well, that's all for this Author's note. I think. You can never be comletely sure when it comes to this wild beast. *points to self* I'm so wild, today I actually looked outside...

...and talked to people.

DUN DUN DUUUUUUNN!!!

...I need a life

Sasuke: Yes, you do.

Me: Tell me something I don't know.

Sasuke: Did you know that if you have a crush for more than 6 months to a full year, you should seek medical attention because it's unhealthy?

Me: Yes. Did you know that teenagers now get attached quicker than twenty years ago? Like, if a couple were to date for a year, it would be equivalent to ten years of marriage to those who were teenagers twenty years ago?

Sasuke: ...Urusai, dobe.

Me: Just shut up and let Naruto the disclaimer.

Sasuke: *sigh*

Naruto: Yay! TheUnknownNinja wants you to know that she does not own me, Sasuke, Sakura or my anime show. Some Masashi Kishimoto does. Wait, this stranger owns me?!

Me: And enjoy the story!

Naruto: But-!

"What about me?" I asked.

"You...you can participate with them this time." He said, holding his hand out for the bell. Shrugging, I handed it over and took the bento he suddenly had out for me to take. As he left, I turned to see the team looking at me with...varying expressions.

Sakura was looking at me in curiousness and pity, Naruto was looking at me and my bento in hunger, and Sasuke was looking at me in...it seems like anger, but I see curiousness and understanding in his eyes.

This ought to be interesting...

Glancing up at Naruto as his stomach growled, I felt bad about not feeding him. I could always just feed him myself, but Sasuke is supposed to be all kind and feed him. Not me. I meant, 'I don't feed Naruto, Sasuke does'. Not 'Sasuke feeds Naruto and doesn't feed me' because, uh, I can feed myself and wanting him to feed me would just be...Ew.

Sighing out in annoyance as Naruto tried to play off his hunger like it wasn't a big deal, I stood from my spot on the pole behind Sasuke, to Naruto's left, and lept to where I was facing Naruto. I flicked the lid off of my uneaten bento and popped some rice into the blond's mouth, effectivly silencing his cries.
