Chapter 12
Laughter roared within the small group of friends at the fast food restaurant. It was a few days after Haku and Zabuza had visited the famous Konoha couple after the school festival.
Kiba wiped a tear from his red face, "Ahaha I can't believe he asked that! Ahaha Naruto your dad's hilarious."
Naruto laughed off the lime light, but Sasuke had become more and more irritated by the joke.
"I swear that old man of yours had some nerve asking a question like that! Tch." Grunted Sasuke.
Shikamaru patted Sasuke on the shoulder, trying hard not to laugh. "Sasuke we all know you wouldn't be mad if what he said would be the other way around."
"Shut up! I never want to see those two again!" Sasuke shouted pounding his fists on the table.
"Whoa, Uchiha your losing your cool, which makes it that much more funny to us." Gaara calmly said, munching on fries, smirking. Laughter once again erupting, while the once coy Sasuke was easily being teased on such a small subject.
"Stop thinking about it Sasuke. I'm sure he was only joking." Naruto said patting Sasuke's hand reassuringly. Sasuke shot him a death glare.
"It wasn't a joke and you know it! Just drop the damn subject." Sasuke snarled. 'Stupid old man, he will rue the day he messes with an Uchiha.'
A few days earlier after the school festival Haku, Zabuza, Sasuke, and Naruto were sitting together at the dinner table of a quaint restaurant. There were minimal conversations going on between everyone. Since Zabuza was having a glare battle with Sasuke.
"I'm glad to hear that your actually enjoying your time in Konoha we were getting worried you wouldn't get along with anyone." Haku said trying to clear the dense air that was clouding around above the family, plus Sasuke.
Naruto picked at his plate, but attempted at conversing, "Yeah. I've really settled in, thanks to my friends and Sasuke." He said emphasizing the last word to his father, cutting into the glaring contest.
Zabuza cleared his throat, taking his eyes off Sasuke for the first time in the night. "Naruto, I'm sure you can return back home to your OWN apartment now. I swear how long would it take to clean a small apartment of mold?"
"Er…" Naruto nervously shifted in his seat. He ate to avoid answering, but Sasuke took the privilege to answer.
"The apartment is clean, but Naruto chose to live with me. He gave his apartment away to an old couple."
Zabuza mouth was left wide open, "What!" Zabuza turned to Haku, "Did you know about this?"
"Yes."
"And you allowed this to happen?" Zabuza raised his voice, pointing a dirty finger to Sasuke.
"I didn't see the problem with it. Naruto likes Sasuke, and I have to support my son and his decisions, and you should too."
Zabuza huffed, "You want me to trust our son to a hormonal teenager!"
Ticked Naruto broke his wooden chopsticks, "Don't you think I can take care of myself?"
"I trust you Naruto. I don't trust him!" Still pointing a dirty finger at Sasuke.
"It certainly doesn't sound that way." Abruptly Naruto slammed his broken chopsticks down, got up and left the restaurant.
"Naruto!" Sasuke and Zabuza yelled in unison, both got up to go after Naruto but stopped to glare at one another once again.
"You. Stay, I'll go get my son."
"No. How about you stay and I go get my boyfriend. You've caused enough problems." Sasuke shot back.
"We'll just see about that." Zabuza challenged.
"Enough! I've had it up to here with you two. BOTH OF YOU GO FIND MY SON AND APOLOGIZE!" Haku raged furiously. His calm collected exterior turned to monstrous motherly concern and anger.
Zabuza and Sasuke stared gapingly at Haku, but that didn't last very long until Haku pointed a finger to the exit with a deathly glare that could even surpass the Uchiha glare. Both boys quickly rushed out the door together.
"Check please." Were the last simple words they heard before they flashed out the door.
At a park Naruto sat on a swing, in thought. But his thoughts were rudely interrupted as he heard to male voices screaming their heads off at one another. Naruto inwardly groaned as he could easily identify the two that were screaming. He watched un-amused as Zabuza and Sasuke were pushing and shoving one another to see who would get to Naruto first.
"Would you two just stop and go away!"
"Naruto!" They both said simultaneously again, shoving one another in front of Naruto in a big huff.
"I have nothing to say to you two." Crossing his arms Naruto spun himself around in the other direction on the swing, but Sasuke grabbed Naruto's shoulders and spun him back around grabbing his hands.
"Naruto, I-"
Before Sasuke could even begin to talk or explain, Zabuza pushed Sasuke aside irked by the touchy feely moment.
"Naruto, you're my son and I respect your choices, but does this guy really have to be one of them?"
"Yes dad, Sasuke is, but I don't think I can stand it if all you two are going to do is fight and glare at one another if we plan to meet."
…
They watched as Naruto's expression went from angrily sad to utterly depressed. Right then and there Sasuke and Zabuza looked at one another and had a mental agreement.
"Hey Naruto."
"What?" Naruto watched with a raised eyebrow at how uneasy and reluctant they both looked as Sasuke and Zabuza were sideways hugging each other as if they got along. The two both grinned fake smiles in the setting sun.
"Don't be sad. Sasuke and I here settled our differences on the way here and we both decided to er..."
"…to at least pretend to like each other when we're around you and Haku and maybe just maybe try to get along." Sasuke finished, he considered that they both might as well be honest.
Naruto looked that the two of them standing there awkwardly hugging each other and laughed.
"You two! Ahahaha…thanks…for at least trying. I feel much better to know that you're both willing."
Naruto got up from the swing and individually hugged the two. Before walking back to the restaurant Zabuza nonchalantly asked,
"Have you two already established Uke's and Seme's?"
If Naruto and Sasuke were drinking something right now, they would have done a spit take followed by bulging eyes with wide open mouths ready to catch flies.
"No? Well then…" Zabuza reached into his left pants pocket and pulled oh a small little package and patted it on Naruto's palm. "Here you go Naruto, you will need this then."
"Ah!" Naruto looked horrifyingly at the condom package in his hand, "Dad! You can't be serious! Why are you giving this to me?"
Zabuza gave Naruto a confused as if innocent look. "What do you mean why? I'm giving this to you because I know you'll make a fine Seme."
"Now wait just a minute!" Sasuke quickly intervened. "Are you trying to say Naruto will be the dominate one!"
"Well I did hand the thing to him, didn't I?" Zabuza smirked sheepishly at the annoyed look on Sasuke's face. To him it was priceless.
"You handed it to him on purpose!"
Naruto watched the two bicker as Haku came up from behind and giggled. "Like father, like son." Naruto laughed and greeted his parent with a hug. Watching and laughing at Zabuza's and Sasuke's argument on dominance.
"I'm telling you, you brat you ain't got the stuff to handle tops!"
"I'll have you know!"
And this spat continued on for the rest of the time Zabuza and Haku were in town.
Sasuke grind his teeth at the very reminder of those past couple of days.
"So Sasuke." Kiba asked.
"What?"
"I never realized that you were a uke."
"WHY YOU!"
Everyone had another great big laugh.
TBC.
Who wouldn't enjoy teasing Sasuke on such a touchy subject? Hahaha I know I did.
