Silently, Mute. [OLD VERSION]

Chapter Forty

[Sasuke]

"Well that happened." Neji said, putting his phone in his lap.

[I'm in shock.]

Naruto really did all of that. Like right now, he's still going. How badly did Saicheat? No, I mean cheating is cheating. But he's getting jumped! Shouldn't Naruto be enough?

"That's a way to kick off summer. Narutos seriously didn't tell you he was doing this?" Neji questioned, leaning back onto his wall.

Well. No? Everything just exploded in two days. We didn't talk much yesterday so I had no idea. I probably should check the group chat more often, what else have I missed?

[No but it's not like he lied or anything? We didn't talk much yesterday. Plus Sai deserved it, even though they're going a little far in my opinion.]

"Naruto has put people in the hospital, multiple times. Sai is lucky Naruto brought friends to stop him. He can get." He paused. "Carried away." He said quietly.

[I believe that. He was laughing that whole time.]

It was kind of sick how much he was enjoying doing that.

Reminds me of my brother.

I'll let it slide because it's for Ino and sure, maybe Sai did deserve it, but no more fighting after that. It doesn't sit right with me.

"Yeah. I don't like to be a part of the group when they go out to do stuff like that. It's not my style. But Sasuke I will hand it to you, you have definitely made Naruto Uzumaki a better person. A remarkable feat I must add. Not a single fight this entire school year? Not a single suspension?"

[Plenty of detention though. What is Kakashi's problem with him? And me?! I got lumped into a lot of those detentions just for existing.]

Detention with Naruto...

Let's just say.

We almost got caught.

I'm still scarred to this day from that.

"Well, Kakashi probably has past problems with Naruto prior to the class you guys had last semester. So he took it out on you two this semester. He was fine with me."

I gave him a sarcastic smile. [Oh how nice for you.]

Neji laughed.

"Are you guys hanging out later? Or do you want to stay over at my place?"

You guys?

Naruto.

Who else would he be talking about Sasuke?

[He's probably going to kidnap me because he knows I'm here. I'm sorry in advance.]

"Not a problem, I'll probably hang out with Shikamaru today if he's free."
