Sasuke's POV- 

It was Monday again, Naruto and I were walking to school. 
Through the last weekend we spent together, Naruto and I grew strangely close to each other. Even though he is my only friend, he is  my best friend now. I'm not exactly sure how friends are supposed to act, I've never had any before. Well not exactly I have had friends before but they were all fake. He is the first real friend to ever show me care. I still find myself doubting him from time to time but he always manages to prove me wrong, he's just marvelous like that. 
Right now he has his arm around my shoulders while he's using his free hand to carry his backpack, which is slung over his shoulder. 

"What cha thinkin about?" 
I heard Naruto ask as he called me out of my thoughts. 
I looked up into his ocean blue eyes that looked curiously down at me. 
Honestly it kinda made me self conscious every time I had to look up at him like this. He was a good head taller than me, I was pretty average height but he was tall. I made him look… hot I guess. I mean not that I think he's hot! But other women will most likely think he's hot! Not that I think he's ugly either! It's just- oh forget it! 

"Hm, oh. Nothing much." 
I answer, returning my gaze to the ground. I don't know why it always made my chest feel weird when I looked into his eyes, like my heart was going to beat out of my chest so my ribs were contracting to hold it in place. 

"Aw come on! It wasn't nothing, tell me!" 
He whined 

"I was just thinking back on last week's events." 
I finally answered. 

"Eh… try not to think about the past too much. It distracts from the present, then you'll get lost." 
He said and before I could answer the bell rang and we had to part way for our first class. 

As I was getting books from my locker I heard two boys across the hall whispering to each other. 

"Bro, did you see that hot dude that joined the school a few weeks ago?"
One said. 

"Oh yeah, he's totally my type. But you know he's rooming with that Uchiha jerk, right!" 
The other said, nodding towards me. 

" I don't know how anyone could live with someone like that. He's probably miserable!" 
The first one said again. 

"Hey since we're rooming with each other, maybe one of us should switch with the hot blond." 

"Switch?" 

"Yeah one of us will switch out and the blonde could come and be roomy with the other. Then the one of us that goes to live with the Uchiha could teach him a lesson." 

"Yeah totally. You switch with the blonde and teach the Uchiha brat a lesson, you know make him your bitch and stuff. Then maybe I could seduce the blonde into sleeping with me." 

They both laughed like maniacs and before I could turn around to say anything they were gone. 
I was dumbfounded at what I just heard. Deep down in my stomach I was scared. Scared that Naruto would accept their proposal and switch. That he'd leave me alone. Like they said he was probably miserable with me anyway, but still. I didn't want him to leave me. I didn't want to be alone. 

The nervousness and worry distracted me from my school and my mind was shifting in and out of reality all through class. In the classes I shared with Naruto I found myself avoiding his gaze and turning my body in a way so I didn't see him. It's not that I didn't want to see him, it's just every time I look at him I remember what those guys said and the nervousness would come back with a vengeance. I tried to mostly forget about it, they were probably just joking and meant nothing by it.
