New Life

Chapter 5

Sasuke's P.O.V.

We were on our way to Naruto's place with Deidara in tow. As we were walking though, we caught the eyes of many people walking past.

Itachi didn't appreciate that very much though. Especially since they were mostly stating at Itachi.

Girls were whispering and squealing like they usually do when a hot guy walks past. Hell, the guys were even whispering about us.

I looked at Itachi who had a frown on his face. I took my hand and pinched his cheek.

"Stop frowning. You'll get wrinkles early."

He sighed.

"Fine."

Soon enough we were at Naruto's house and people were greeting us left and right. Mostly Sakura and Ino.

We finally got in and then Naruto came up to me.

"Hey dude, you made it! I was worried you wernt gonna show!"

He looked at Deidara.

"Who's the blonde?!"

"I'm Deidara- un!"

"I'm Naruto! Anyways Kiba and Neji and all the others wanted to see you! They didn't believe me when I told them you were back!"

We were shouting over the music but somehow we could understood each other.

"Ok I'll come with you! Itachi and Deidara, play nice with the other people!"

I followed Naruto to a different part of his house, which I assumed was the kitchen because of the fridge. It was kinda dim in the house so I couldn't really see very well.

Naruto took my hand and led me through a few clusters of people and into the kitchen where I met eyes with Rock Lee.

I remember when he beat my ass when we were kids. Good times. I'll have to pay him back for that later.

"Sasuke Uchiha! It really is you! I have not seen you in many years!"

"Hey Lee. You haven't changed a bit. How have you been?"

"Neither have you my friend. Life has been fulfilling so far! My youth is at its prime!"

I chuckled a bit. Same old Lee.

"Hey Sasuke."

I looked towards Neji and greeted him back. Then Kiba spoke up. Shino was quiet as usual.

"How have you guys been?"

Shino shrugged but the rest said either good or okay. Neji returned the question and I answered with an okay.

'I wonder how Deidara is holding up.'

Deidara's P.O.V.

Once we got inside it was hard to believe that all these people knew Sasuke. There were at least 200 of them all scattered waiting to say hi to Sasuke.

'Good thing I'm not claustrophobic...'

I made my way to the kitchen to get something to drink when I noticed Sasuke and his other friends all talking a few feet away.

I grabbed a Dr.Pepper and walked over to them. Sasuke turned around to see me.

"Hey Deidara."

"Hi."

"Are you doing ok?"

"Ya of course."

Some guy with longer hair spoke up.

"Are you guys gonna introduce us?"

'Who is he? His eyes are interesting, they look like they are staring into my soul. Its kinda scary. I should say something he's still looking at me and Sasuke isn't saying anything for me.'

"I'm Deidara-un."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Neji. This is Kiba, Lee and Shino."

I felt really flustered all of a sudden. I whispered into Sasuke's ear.

'I'm gonna go back and hug the wall if you don't mind to take over...'

He turned and smiled.

"No problem."

With that I left to go sit on the left side of the couch where almost no one was. Staring at an empty corner near the door.
