Naruto sighed as he watched his class empty. He didn't particularly liked teaching Literature, in truth he is an anonymous, award winning author of many novels and manga. Sighing he shoved his books, papers and other stationaries into his bag. His phone buzzed.

"Hello." He answered tiredly. He wanted to go home badly.

"Hey, hun. Just letting you know tonight is your night to host the get together." Sai boyish voice drawled over his phone. Naruto rolled his eyes. He had no idea why he was even in a relationship with Sai. He didn't even love the guy.

"Yes, I am aware just, get there later than normal,-" he swung his bag over his shoulder "- say 2 hours later, ok?" Naruto walked through the door and into the hall, it was now empty except for a few persons going to their clubs and societies, he waved as he passed a few giggling girls. He smiled.

"Why? Don't tell me you forgot?" Sai asked. Naruto almost swore.

"Yes I did forget, I'm sorry, just tell the others. I'm heading out now." He closed his phone and head to his car. One of his many loves. His new Mercedes convertible responded to his call from his keys as he pressed the open button. He needed to go get some alcohol for tonight.

Every third Friday a group of his friends meet up and drink talk, make out, start relationships break up, argue and sleep over. Luckily he had moved into a much bigger house. He pulled out of the school parking lot and drove off to the liquor store.

Naruto grimaced. He should have taken a vacation.

Sasuke Uchiha

Age: 22.

Relationship Status: In a relationship.

Sasuke stared blankly at his now empty desk. He had been stuck at his desk since he arrived early that morning. Karin was his secretary. She is a slave driver. She had thrown all the work he had shirked or try to shirk on him today. He stretched and swivelled in his chair to look out his glass windows. His office was on the highest floor, the view was beautiful. The sun was already beginning to set orange, yellow, red, and purple were splashed across the evening sky. Sasuke sat back in his chair and gazed, he absent-mindedly unbutton the top buttons of his shirt.

Then his personal cellular phone rang.

"Speak." Sasuke commanded without looking at the caller. There was a familiar low chuckle. Sasuke wish he had looked at the caller id before answering. His boyfriend Kabuto was on the line.

"It's just me oh mighty Sasuke." Kabuto teased. Sasuke rolled his eyes.

It's not that Kabuto was all that bad; he just isn't what Sasuke wanted anymore.

"Hi. Kabuto." Sasuke tried to sound friendlier.

"That's more like it, well I am inviting you out. My friends and I always hang out every third Friday in every month. You wanna join us?" Sasuke scowled.

"No." Sasuke bit out, it's not that he didn't like Kabuto's friends; it's just that he isn't one to socialize with loud and obnoxious people.

"C'mon hun, please, they are your friends too." Sasuke tapped his fingers methodically on his desk surface.
