Professor Uchiha (Sasuke UchihaxReader) Book 2

Chapter 8

Two weeks of tutoring Naruto are literal hell, let me tell you. One minute he looks like he gets anything you explain to him, and then he tilts his head like a lost puppy muttering a "Huh?".

Keeping up with work, uni and on top of that Naruto, was a little overwhelming. No, what even am I saying? Not a little. More. But I couldn't just abandon my bestfriend... I did feel bad for him. And those puppy eyes he gives each day he begs me to stay one more hour with him at the library... I just can't bring myself to say no! I would end up so tired after our study sessions but the adorable smile he has at the end when he realizes he gets a lesson is too wholesome.

Sasuke made fun of me countless times for "wasting my time on that dumb Uzumaki" but I'd only roll my eyes and dismiss his snarky comments. I knew that no matter how much he jokes about Naruto, he still cares for him and I always see the little smile in the corner of his lips when I'd tell him how blondie makes progress some days.

On top of all of that, when most of our tests came back, he actually had better grades than in the first semester. He was very happy and offered to take me out to some ramen, along with Sakura because I insisted she comes too since I haven't seen her in ages.

The only test that was left to be returned was the one in Professor Smith's class. I had a gut feeling already telling me what that grade would be but I still tried to remain calm, a big step forward I'd say.

And even when she almost slammed the tests in our faces, I still remained calm as my right eye started to twitch when I saw the lowest grade on both my and Naruto's works. That was the tipping point.

Naruto's face turned to confusion and once he saw our matching bad grades he, for the second time I know him, got angry. I knew that if we both cause a scene in front of everyone it would only do us so much good... So I shut up and also held the blonde beside me, urging him to leave this fight for when everyone was leaving.

The thing is that when she early ended class and we wanted to reach her desk, she already left. That sly bitch blended in with the students and ran away. So she knows damn well what she did and now was just trying to avoid us.

"She left." I huff putting my hands on my hips and glaring at the desk

"I will talk to Dad." Naruto concludes and my eyes widen

He will what?

My head snaps in his direction and I see an annoyed expression on his face "You don't have to, you know? I'm sure we can solve this by giving her a piece of our mind."

"Well, what else are we supposed to do? She hates us and takes it out on us. And all thanks to some stupid situation too. Couldn't she just move on? The logical solution right now would be to go to the dean and speak about this behavior." Naruto shakes his head

"But-..."

"She needs to move on. And she either does it herself or I will make her." Naruto says sounding as if he already made up his mind

"Naruto, are you okay?" I squint my eyes suspicious of this behavior coming from the knucklehead

"No, Y/n! I'm not okay!" he raises his tone and I turn to fully look at him surprised "I worked hard for this test and I'm not letting her ruin it over some petty quarrel!"

Unknowingly of what to do in a situation where Naruto is so pissed like this and for a reason such as grades, I reach out to hug him and he lets me, but only for a couple of seconds before parting and uttering "I'm going to my father's office to settle this.".

He left the room not sparing me another glance and I stood there dumbfounded. Me being angry at Professor Smith would be something normal, but Naruto? He's the fluffball out of us. And he'd even step on his pride and go to his Dad... Could this be about something else? Since when did grades matter to him?
