New Year, New Love SasuNaru

Chapter 8: Thinking and Wondering

Naruto Pov (You can play the song anytime. I just think its a great song)

Everyone and I made our way to our homeroom. I looked around the halls and every corner that we pass and still no sign of Ino and Sai. I sighed and continue to walk with the group. 'Maybe I should call him...' I stopped in my tracks and took out my phone and looked for Sai's contact. "Hey Naruto, why'd you stop?" "I'm gonna call Sai real fast. You guys can go on without me." They all nod and started to make their way to class. I looked at my phone while I leaned against the wall and clicked on Sai's number and put the phone against my ear and waited for him to answer. "The person you are trying to reach is un----" I hung up and looked at my phone for a little. "Why isn't he picking up his phone? Let's try this again..." I clicked on his number again and put it against my ear again. "The person you are trying to----" I hung up again and put my phone back in my pocket and just stood against the wall. 'Maybe he's still sleeping...' I sighed and made my way to class.

I got to the classroom and went to my sit next to Sasuke, who had his head down with headphones in his ears. I smiled a little and made my way behind him and reached out to gently touch his shoulder and scare him, but before I went to touch his shoulder: "Hey Naruto! Come over here for a sec!" I heard Kiba say. I walked over to him, grabbed a chair and sat next to him. "So what's up with you and Sasuke?" "What? There's nothing going on, we're just friends. Starting to become good friends." He looks over to Sasuke and looks over back to me. "Okay then.... Then what's going on with you and Sai... He seems pretty distant from you.... you have noticed right?" I thought for a minute. I looked back at Kiba. "Yeah, he has been pretty distant, but that's play, I'm not worried or anything. Everything is good between us." "If you say so... But I just think that him and Ino are----" "That me and Ino are what?"

I looked over to see Sai and Ino. I smiled and got up from my chair and hugged him and he hugged me back as Ino was sitting down next to Sakura and started talking. "Where were you? I called you twice." "Sorry, I forgot that my phone was off. I just turned it on." "Oh that's okay then. Do you still want to hang out today?" "Yeah." He says to me and smiles. I smiled back and gave him a hug. I saw Kiba and Sai look at each other. "Now what were you saying Kiba?" Kiba just looked at Sai with this expression. "Nothing, im going to the bathroom." He said and got up and left. As soon as he left I heard another voice: "Such a rare sight to see." I look over to see Shikamaru and Choji walking over to us. They sat down at their and kept looking over at me and Sai. "What do you mean it's a rare sight to see? We hug from time to time." "Yeah , you're right i'm sorry." I watched Shikamaru as he put his headphones on and put his head down on his desk.

I looked up at Sai and then I looked over to Sasuke who was still taking a nap. I smiled and broke away from the hug. "I'm gonna go to my desk, I see you after school." I leaned up and gave him a kiss on his cheek and walked over to my desk. I slowly make my way behind Sasuke trying to scare him again. 'I'll get him this time.' I smiled and got ready to scare him until: "Still trying to scare me Naruto..." I stopped dead in my tracks. "What the.... I thought you were sleeping, How did you know?" He lifted his head and turned around to face me. He pushed his hair out of his face and looked straight into my eyes. 'His eyes are so...' He smirked at me and I gave him a smile back. "So are you gonna tell me how you knew I was behind you." "Its very simple: I wasn't sleeping and I felt a presence behind me, which was you. I knew you would sneak up on me.... well you or Kiba but he went to the bathroom due to something." I look around to see kiba is not back yet.

Sasuke looks around to see that Kiba is not back yet and looks back at me. "What's taking him so long? Does he have a stomach problem or something?" "No, Sai over-heard him talking about him and I think he felt uncomfortable.... I knew he really didnt have to go the bathroom. I'm actually going to check on him, do you want to come?" He nods and we bot stood up from our chairs and went over to Kakashi and told him were going to check on Kiba. He nods and gave a hall pass and went back to reading his book. Sasuke and I walked in silence but it wasn't awkward. "So what did Kiba say about Sai?" "Oh, it was nothing Really. Kiba was joking around in the beginning saying things like 'What's going between you and Sasuke?'" ".....I dont really know him that well, but that sounds like something that he'll say." I laugh a little and nod my head. "Yeah he says a bunch a crazy things." "What else happened?" "Oh and then I said no were just good friends, then he asks me what's going on between Sai and I because he's been pretty distant...." Sasuke stops walking, which makes me stop walking and we looked at one another.
