A lining of sun forced itself through thin orange curtains that were meant to hide the room from it. It was silent except a few inhales and exhales, at a different paces, it was off tune but this wasn't music class. A body tossed to its side, shifting the bed with it. Onyx eyes crept open, half dazed, their stare layed on a peaceful sleeping face. Itachi forgot he fell asleep in the blondes bed, in fact he forgot he was even at the blondes house. He sat up, his arms felt lazy, his whole body felt lazy, he didn't want to get up. He glanced over to the body next to him, the boy was small compared to the himself, as if he could break at any moment. He ran his hand through his hair pushing any outta place strands back where they needed to be. He kicked his legs off the bed, slowly and carefully placing them on the cold floor.

He didn't mind the temperature, it helped wake him up. He wiggled his toes before pushing his weight on his legs to pick himself up. Walking over to the bathroom, it was a normal thing for him to do he did it many times at home. Quietly he opened the bathroom door, spotting the now dry mess from last night, his eyes darkening if that was even possible. He opened up the cabnet to towels and wet one, now cleaning up the stains of blood from wherever he saw.

After he was done, he splashed some water on his face and made his way to the kitchen. Noting that the blonde was a deep sleeper because as he made his way there he hit his foot on the wall by accident. Itachi was too tired to actually make a breakfast, normally he skipped it but he was bored waiting for his friend to wake up. He poured himself some cereal, Frosted flakes to be exact.

As he was about to take his first bite, his bandaged hand caught his attention, he forgot about the wound as well. For a few moments he stared at it and then began to start eating.

The raven was almost finished with his bowl of Flakes when a tired and messy looking blonde stumbled out of his room. Itachi puffed out air in amusement to the childish looking boy who was now taking a seat in front of him. Rubbing his eye, Naruto gave a weak smile

"Good morning Itachi, how was your night?" The blonde layed his head down on his arms still looking at the Raven.

"Eventful.." the Raven mumbled, his friend now had his head perked back up with a goofy grin and a low giggle "Dream a dirty dream?" this question took Itachi by surprise.

Had the blonde not remember what happened last night? Was he just trying to forget? Was he trying to avoid it?

"I hope the couch wasn't too uncomfortable.." this broke the Ravens thought flow, and he shook his head "I wouldn't know I slept in your bed," this earned him a raised eyebrow,

" W-wait.. is that why I had my blanket?! I.. You.. what?" The blonde honestly didn't recall so Itachi did what he thought was right and gave a lie "You kept screaming in your sleep, I came to calm you so every time I left you would scream again." Well it wasn't completely a lie, the boy did in fact become uneasy whenever Itachi left his side, but he squirmed he didn't scream.

Itachi wasn't sure how he was to explain why he went to his room if all the blonde did was squirm.

Naruto simply nodded to this "Oh.. well Thank you I guess." A soft blush brightened in his cheeks.

If the boy didn't remember last nights events then Itachi didn't want to be the one to remind him. The raven thought too soon on this though, as he grabbed his bowl to put up his friend spotted Itachi's bandaged up hand, he let the Raven put up his bowl before grabbing his hand making Itachi's lip twitch.

"What happened?" The saddened blonde looked up innocently, he grabbed Itachi's hand once more but softer than before.

His thumb creasing over the bandage. With a straight face (1) lies were pushed through his teeth " before I went to your room I restlessly searched the kitchen for a drink and as I looked for a cup, I grabbed a knife the wrong way. I suppose it wasn't the smartest to search a kitchen in the dark.." he felt bad for lying to him but he feared his reaction.

The raven forced an assuring smile so the lie seemed more believable, pulling his hand from him he gave a light ruffle to the blonde who had a look of suspicion.

Some time had passed, Itachi decided he would stay with Naruto until sunday after last nights incident. The blonde going along with no agrue to these actions, he enjoyed his Raven friend after all.

"Don't go sneaking in my bed again though" the Blonde gave a toothy grin only reciving a 'hn' so he pushed the Uchiha's shoulder roughly.

"Always with the 'hn' You just love to ruin the fun dontchya?" Still a smile was carved in his face. Itachi gave no response, he allowed for silence to take place, for suspense to build for the moment. Then, he reflected his friends previous action except, forgetting his and the boys size difference the shockwave of the push created a more violent tull, he pushed the Blonde clean off the couch. Naruto staring up at is Raven friend, just before Itachi could apologize a loud horking laugh rippled though the air.

His blonde friend was amused not hurt. Itachi didn't understand, he just hurled his friend onto the floor yet he was amuzed. "Ohh man you should have seen your face," laugher broke into his forming sentence " you look like you ran over a puppy but all you did was push me, Geez! I'm not fragile." The blondes laughed slowed and died. Still no vocal reply came from Itachi, nothing but a shrug and a look of doubt to the boys denial of being fragile. "Hey! What's that suppose to mean!" The boy's loud playful temper was getting the better of him. Itachi was begining to rethink how in the world he made friends with such an obnoxious blonde.

Before he could finish his rant Itachi came up with an idea, One to avoid what happen last night. "Naru-Kun?" Itachi purred eyeing his blonde friend. Naruto blushed a little "y-yes?" His eyes looking away from the almost seductive stare of his Raven friend. "Lets make a palette out here and watch a bunch of movies."

Joy sprung through the blondes body to this, what was unusual for Itachi, idea for the night. Something relaxing compared to the past few days. Instantly Naruto agreed to this, warmth swarmed through his body along with an strange tingle. Excitement boiled in his blood, him and Itachi went out to pick 5 movies to rent for the soon to be fun night.
