With a smile on his face, Naruto unlocked the door and walked into his empty home. He felt like a high school girl who had just learned that her crush had returned her feelings. He could feel his heart beating against his abdomen. With Sasuke, he had a lot of fun. Sasuke Uchiha, not just any Sasuke. The one who is known for being emotionless and cold-hearted. Apart from the fact that he's attractive.

"Where have you been?" Naruto was shocked by the unexpected sound of Jiraiya's voice.

"Jiraiya?" He was perplexed, he had no idea he'd be home.

"I've been waiting for you to return home for hours. What were you doing? Were you at Kiba's? You should've let me know you'd be late." He inquired, trying not to sound enraged; he was simply concerned.

"I had no way of knowing you'd turn up. You come and go whenever you want." Naruto walked into his room as he rolled his eyes, and fell face first onto his bed. After all of the running around at Sasuke's, he was exhausted.

As he received a message, he groaned and unlocked his phone. Was it Kiba? He double-checked the name; it was a phone number that he didn't recognize.

Unknown: hey

Me: who is this

Unknown: who do you think, idiot

Naruto thought about it for a second. Who would it be? Could it be? No..

Unknown: it's Sasuke, since you haven't figured it out yet

Me: I did figure it out!

Unknown: sure 😏

Me: don't smirk with an emoji

Jerk face: why not?

Me: it just makes you look like you're flirting

Jerk face: I don't care 😏

Me: stopppppp

Jerk face: 😏😏😏😏😏

Me: ☹️

Jerk face: so you got home okay?

Naruto blushed as he rolled across his bed, holding his phone to his chest. Oh no, was he turning into one of his fans?! Certainly not! He didn't like Sasuke at all.

Me: Yeah, Jiraiya got mad tho, I was shocked he was even here

Jerk face: Really? What did you say?

Me: I got mad and asked him how I was supposed to know he was even here since he just comes and leaves randomly.

Jerk face: I can see why you got mad. Anyways, I gotta go eat dinner.

Me: okay, goodnight teme.

Jerk face: Goodnight, dobe.

Naruto turned his phone off and laid down, staring up at his ceiling fan. Why did he feel so happy? He was probably just excited to make a new friend. Yeah.

"Get up, Naruto." Naruto mumbled incoherent words as he rolled around in bed. "If you don't get up right now, no ramen for a week." Jiraiya warned him, thinking it would wake him up.

Jiraiya chuckled as Naruto suddenly bolted up. "I'm up, I'm up," He says. He began getting ready for school by stretching his arms out, ecstatic at the possibility of seeing Sasuke.

He was at Konoha High before he knew it. "Naruto! This way!" Naruto turned to face the source of the voice and recognized Kiba, his best friend.

Naruto ran over to the brunette engulfing him in a goofy hug. "Hey Kiba!" He grinned.

As he regained his balance, Kiba tried not to tip over. "You're in a really good mood today."

Naruto sighed and backed away from the embrace. "I'm always happy!"

"I thought you'd be mad considering the picture that was sent to the group chat." He confessed, his face flushed.

Naruto pulled his brows together and squinted. "What image are you talking about?" He took out his phone and went straight to the group chat. His eyes opened wide as he saw himself on Sasuke's lap, his face flushed. "Kiba!" He screamed as he approached the brunette that had started backing up.

Kiba spun around and raced in the opposite direction. "Help!" He shouted. "I'm sorry, Naruto!"

After saying goodbye to his brother, Sasuke entered the school building with a smug expression on his face. He didn't know why, but he was in a good mood. "You're happy today?" When Sasuke turned around, he saw Neji smirking.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes. "It's nothing," As they both walked to their lockers together, Neji hummed, not wanting to push the subject.

"Neji, help!" They turned to see Naruto chasing after Kiba. When Kiba got close enough, he hid behind Neji. "He's going to kill me!"

Naruto had arrived and was about to confront both Neji and Kiba when he was interrupted. "What is going on here?" Naruto swallowed and shifted, hearing Ms. Tsunade's voice.

"M-ms. Tsunade. Hello and good morning." He said as he rubbed the back of his neck, grinning sheepishly.

"There will be no racing in the halls." She warned. "Anyway, Sasuke and Naruto, please accompany me to my office to discuss your repercussions; don't think I've forgotten." She turned around and walked towards her office, instructing them to follow.

Both boys frowned, they had completely forgotten about the community service they were supposed to do. They trailed behind her, terrified of what they were about to hear. They stepped into her office and sat in the two seats in front of her desk.

She swallowed her saliva and cleared her throat. "I realized I was being a little too harsh with the two of you," she began, and both Naruto and Sasuke raised their heads in surprise. "I understand how easy it is to lose track of time when you're having too much fun." She gave a warm smile. "I spoke to the school board, and they said I still have to punish you two in some way."

"You two are familiar with Mr. Hatake?" She asked and they both nodded. "I thought so. Anyways, you two along with Mr. Hatake will be staying after school to clean his classroom. That was the only thing the board would agree with." She finished, massaging her temple.

Naruto grinned. "Thanks granny!" Ms. Tsunade looked up from her desk, giving him a stern look. "Hehe.. Sorry."

The interaction made Sasuke smirk. "Dobe..." He says.

The nickname made Naruto blush. Normally, he would fire back but he somehow felt differently. "Let's go to class, teme." Naruto said as he pushed open the door for him.

After being dismissed, Sasuke got up from his chair and walked out of her office.
