The Best Gift

I don't own Naruto at all

A/N: here's another Naruto V-day story. This time I'm using Rei Uchiha, a character I created. I had the ending of this one figured out before the rest. So I had to write backwards. Sasuke bashing in this.

Rei Uchiha had it all planned out. Her plan could not fail.

/Scene Break/

Today was Valentine's Day. A day that was meant for couples and those who hoped to become a couple. But for a good chunk of the school's student body it was just another day. A Wednesday. Students filed into the school for another day of learning. Same old, same old.

Rei was another in the packs of students though she had her admirers. She was beautiful with her fair skin, dark onyx eyes and long silky smooth shampoo commercial quality hair. Her figure was perfect too. But she shunned all of them though politely. She wasn't cold and aloof like her twin brother was. She was well liked by her schoolmates. She was also a very good student getting grades that were excellent.

"Hey there Rei" Naruto greeted.

"Hi Naruto" Rei greeted back.

She knew Naruto first by her brother Sasuke who'd rant and rave about the blond who was trying to usurp him. She didn't pay too much attention to it since Sasuke did this a lot. He got into these almost juvenile tantrums about something or another. Most of them came and went without much fanfare. Except for this Naruto. So it interested Rei since Naruto became a constant.

So she began her research on one Naruto Uzumaki.

Naruto Uzumaki she found was a polite and considerate boy. Which was kind of surprising given their age when that kind of thing, especially in boys was like looking for an oasis in a desert when your canteen was already dry. In all of her investigation she couldn't find out why her brother didn't care for Naruto. But a part of that was Sasuke had a habit as he ranted and raved to switching from murmuring under his breath to actually speaking clearly and without any true pattern to it. So Rei had no idea, plus the fact that she's learn to ignore Sasuke when he got like that early on.

In her time looking into Naruto she couldn't help not liking him. So she became friends with him much to Sasuke's ire. In fact he tried to order her to stop being friends with him. Rei laughed at Sasuke for it since he really had no power over her. As twins she was actually older than him by a day. She was born at 11 PM while Sasuke came out at after one in the morning.

That friendship slowly drifted closer and closer to those kinds of feelings. Rei of course could sense this coming, but put off thinking about it since she didn't want a school romance since she knew the statistics weren't good for it surviving afterwards in the real world. Plus, she wanted to focus on her education, not love. But emotions never listens to your brain. Never. So she fell in love with Naruto before she rationally could accept it.

When she did she did so with slight reluctance, but accepted it in the end with dignity and grace. Naruto didn't seem to know, but she chalked this up as a guy thing. They weren't the brightest when it came to emotions. It was actually Rei who confessed and Naruto was surprised, but accepted her feelings. They became a couple though no one in school knew. Rei didn't want to subject her boyfriend to the glares and browbeating he'd most likely get from her admirers.

But this Valentine's Day Rei decided that she'd let someone know. Her brother Sasuke. And she had a plan on how. She didn't care for Sasuke and only tolerated him since they were family. She thought he was immature and at times whiny. Any time she could knock him down a peg or just mess with him she took it. This plan was perfect since she'd doing two things, killing two birds with one stone.

The day went on with nothing really special. Naruto told her he had a present for her and he'd give it to her after school. Rei though had other plans.

After school Rei brought Naruto home. She knew her parents were gone and her older brother Itachi was off at college. She also knew Sasuke's schedule and knew when he'd be home which would be a bit late today.

At the Uchiha home Rei let Naruto up to her room. She left the door open since that was rule. If she were to have a boy up there excluding family then the door remained open. Her mother didn't want any funny business going on.

"So Rei" Naruto began feeling a bit nervous. This was the two's first Valentine's day together as a couple.

"Yes Naruto" Rei said as she leaned forward a bit.

"Um, well, I was, um" Naruto fumbled.

As Naruto was trying to get the words out Rei had half an ear peeled. She heard the door open and then close. Then she heard footsteps up the stairs. And with timing so perfect that not even coincidence could be declared Rei lunged forward and captured Naruto's lips with her own.

Naruto was shocked by this, but then kissed Rei back. Why wouldn't he.

Sasuke stood there stunned as he watched as his sister Rei make out with Naruto. His jaw dropped as he stared at his sister vigorously kissing his rival. His brain shutdown as he blacked out, his legs giving out and he crumpled to the rug covered wood floor with a soft thud.

"But your present" Naruto said breaking the kiss.

"I got it" Rei said with a smirk. She had witnessed her brother's total shutdown.

Naruto was confused, but before he could ask Rei's lips were back on his and any pondering was left like dust in the wind.

End
