PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION! THANK YOU!

Who- Naruto/Sasuke

What- At a high school in Konoha (no ninjaing, but there is taijutsu of sorts). Naruto and Sasuke meet and eventually fall in love. However, keep in mind that I'm not type of author who writes no-plot, stupid smut. I like slow romances when feelings start to boil up. So don't expect any serious sex. Until later. XD

I'm not really fond of putting Japanese into my fics because believe it or not, authors, you guys aren't the only ones who read ur fics. Be considerate and at least put a translated script at the bottom explaining some of this random Japanese you throw in. I can understand it, but not everyone can.

It doesn't always fit that well.

This is an English site.

I don't mind honorifics (-chan, -kun, -sama), but those won't be in this story. When I put Japanese in the story, I'll have a translation for you at the bottom.

When-The story takes place during present time.

Why- Cuz yaoi with Sasuke and Naruto is hot.

How- Heh, that's for me to know and for you to read about! Keep in mind that this story jumps from Sasukes POV to Narutos POV. But don't worry about being confuzzled. I'll tell you when they switch.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. I don't know WHY we need to say this every single time we make a fic, but w/e. If I did own Naruto, would I be making fanfictions about my own series? Uh, no. I don't think so.

Hai! Hajimarimasu! (Alright, let's get started!)

SASUKE POV

They say that opposites attract. I don't believe it. I never have.

Throughout my entire life I've been the popular kid. Girls adore me, boys adore me, hell, even the teachers like me. If you could describe me with one color, it'd be black. My personality is pitch black, my hair is black, my emotions are black. It's been that way ever since my family was killed.

My big brother, Itachi. He was the one who killed them. I thought he only killed my parents. When I tried to reach my relatives, they never answered their phones. Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, no one. None of them answered. The last person that I called was my cousin. I waited on the phone, crying, praying that he would answer. When the phone was picked up, I cried out of relief and told him everything that happened. I waited him to respond, but he didn't. Itachi did. He told me that he killed everyone. I was the only spare. Why? Because he felt like it.

My entire family was killed by the time I was six.

The people that I adored with my entire being, they had all died. They were all gone. I never regarded Itachi as a brother from then on. He was not even family. I tried to catch him many times, but every time he'd run away from me and get away by just a hair. Just a hair was keeping me from killing him, and it was killing me inside.

I was afraid to show affection for anyone after that. Girls have asked me out tons of times. Even boys have asked me out. Every time I had to say no. Even if they were one of the people who thought we were friends. I wished I could be friends with them, but I was too afraid. I kept people at my distance for my own selfish reasons. I thought I could never trust another human being again. Not after Itachi. Never ever.

Middle school had just ended for me and high school was today. My first day. The day when people smile at you and say hi, they ask you about your summer, what did you do, who did you do, you know, the basics. I wanted to smile back and tell them what I did during the summer, but I was too afraid. Stupid Sasuke. I'm such an idiot. People think I'm this awesome, sleek, fine-tuned kid, but in reality, I'm just a whimp. A silly little whimp. I try not to blame myself too much. I try to blame it on Itachi, but it never really works.

I looked at myself in the mirror to make sure that all my clothes were on right. I hate looking in the mirror. Whenever I look in it I see myself. I see everything that happened to me. The killing, the pain, the everything. I remember when I was six once again. After everyone died, I was left at an orphanage. I thought I would be lost there forever, but I was lucky. My family massacre was all over the headlines. Everybody died in my family except me. It enraged me, hearing my family all over the news. I felt like my dead family members were being used as advertisement. I hated it so much. I just wanted it all to end. Until he took me under his wing. I remember, being at the bridge near the orphange looking into the water. It looked so inviting. I just wanted to jump in and stop moving. I looked around me to see if anyone was coming. I slowly climbed over the railing and looked down into the water. It was beautiful. So inviting, serene. I wanted to jump into its arms. The water would pull me toward it and never let go. I wanted to be surrounded by something that took me in, even if it meant it was trying to kill me. I missed the feeling of my mother's hugs and my father patting my head. I missed it when Itachi poked my head when he didn't train me. I missed everything. I imagined how the headlines would be now. "Uchiha Sasuke, 6 Year Old Commited Suicide After Massacre of his Family."

A steady breath, my eyes closed, my hope falling like plastic stars. I was going to end it and be with my parents, engulfed in the water, never seeing the light again.

But someone grabbed me. It was a large, male hand. He grabbed my shoulders and put me down on the bridge. He was so tall above me, like an ant staring at a tree. He slowly lowered himself my level, our noses barely 3 inches apart. His hair was silver, but his face was young. There was a scar on the left side of his face. He closed his eyes and smiled at me.When he opened his eyes to me, I saw the eye behind the scar. It was the sharingan, something hereditary to my family. He simply told me that his name, then he asked mine. I couldn't tell him. I cried instead. And he hugged me.

And now, I'm in high school, ready and waiting. Kakashi, the man who took me in when I had no one. He grabbed the hope that fell from me and gave it right back. Only him I could trust. No one else.

"Sasuke, stop gawking at yourself and get yourself to school! You're going to be late on the first day! Don't you start getting my tardiness habits…"

"Yeah, I know already. Geez, you're so annoying sometimes." I said things to him that didn't always seem respectful, but he knew me too well to take me seriously. He answered my remark with a small laugh. I ran down to the kitchen to go and eat some breakfast. I looked at Kakashi. Then the table. Then the fridge.

"Where is my food? I'm gonna be late!"

"Oh, yeah. Uh… hm…" Kakashi put his current smut series down for a second to look around. "Where did I put your food… I think it's in the second cupboard to the right of the sink."

"… why the hell did you put my breakfast there?"

"Well, I got mixed up while I was making your breakfast and putting the laundry detergent away, so you know. I hope I didn't poison your food…" He smirked slightly and begun to read the smut again.

"Ugh, nevermind, I have no time for this! I'll see you later." I ran out of the house, hungry and annoyed. I HATE it when he acts like an idiot! The sad part is, my lunch is probably stuck somewhere in that cupboard. I guess I should clean it up later…

My house was only a few blocks away from my school, Konoha High. My brand new school. Its so much bigger than my old, crappy middle school. So many more people, too. Well, I had better look for my classes. Hm… Let's see…

NARUTO POV

WHOOHOO! SCHOOL'S STARTING AND I'M READY TO GO! Man, I can't believe how EARLY I woke up this morning! Two o'clock! Usually Dad has to wake me up five minutes before school! But today, I'm PUMPED! A brand new school, brand new people, and not to mention, brand new girls… heh heh, yeah. I'm such a ladies man. They know that they love me. When they slap me, it's a love slap. When they punch me, it's because I'm so hot, they think they're gonna faint around me, so they need to get me away. When they shout at me, it's because they want the world to know that they think that I'm hot!

Let's see… I got my backpack with all the school crap, my brand new shirt, brand new shorts, and brand new shoes! Face it, who can resist me?

I just need a quick look in the mirror and I'm ready to go! Let' see… hm… eh, who cares? I look great.

"Naruto! Hurry up and get down here! Your breakfast is getting cold!"

"COMING!"

I ran downstairs to meet my foster dad, Iruka. When I was little, he took me in. My mother died having me and my father died trying to protect me. Dad won't ever tell me what he tried to protect me from, though. It doesn't really matter anyway. What does matter is that Iruka is now my caretaker. He's the best dad ever! He's sort of a housewife, though. I tease him about that. I tease him about those gay porn mags that he keeps under his bed, too. It's priceless to see his face! Haha, just thinking about it makes me crack up!

"I made you miso ramen today. I know it's your favorite, so enjoy."

"Whoohoo! Thanks! You're the best!" I gave him a hug like I do every morning. "ITADAKIMASU!" I slurped it down in about five seconds. It's amazing how fast a bowl of my favorite ramen disappears! I thanked Dad for the food. "Hey, I'm gonna go now! I gotta catch the bus!" I was putting my shoes on when he stopped me.

"Naruto! You got ramen broth all over your shirt!"

I looked on my shirt, and sure enough, there were splatters everywhere.

"Aw shit! Hold on sec!" I tried walking to the kitchen, but I forgot I was putting my shoes on. I tripped and fell flat on my face. Dad laughed.

"Haha, god, you're an idiot sometimes. Here, catch." He threw me a clean shirt to change into.

"Thanks," I said while tossing my messy shirt aside and putting on my new one. "Kay, I'll see you later! Bye!"

"Alright, tell me about your day when you get back!"

I nodded and ran out the door. I always tell him about my day after school. It makes me feel so much better. I really am lucky to have such a good caretaker. I just wish he had some luck in return. Konoha isn't exactly known for its gay population. Every year I wish on my birthday cake that Dad will find a lover and marry him, but so far it hasn't happened. That's alright! I'll just keep wishing and trying! I'm sure there's someone out there for him!

Alright, I'm on the bus and ready to go! I got my backpack, my shirt, my shoes, and my schedule. I looked over my schedule over and over again. I dreamt about being in the same class with tons of girls. Especially this one girl, Sakura. She was the heartthrob of my middle school. I asked her out tons of times, but she always turned me down. But, like I always say, the 429th time is the charm!

We stopped at another bus stop before making it to the high school. One of my good friends, Shikamaru, got on the bus. That kid was as lazy as hell, but he was a really good friend. He would always help me and protect me when kids would pick on me when I was younger.

"HEY! SHIKAMARU! OVER HERE!"

"God, shaddap Naruto. It's too early for this…" He yawned and sat down next to me. He had black hair that was tied up into a messy ponytail. His eyes were constantly drooping because he was so tired. He usually wore green t-shirts and black shorts to school. Every morning it was the same thing, ever since middle school. He'd sit next to me, drop his bag on the floor, and ask me how I was doing. Today was no different.

"So, how'r you doing, Naruto?"

"Well, Shikamaru, I'm doing GREAT! I get to start at a new school and meet tons of new people! I'm really excited! Of course you aren't, though. You don't like meeting new people. Besides, your mind is already set on Temari…" I shoved him playfully. He scowled.

"Well, at least she talks to me. All the other girls don't. I'm lucky that a girl like her will talk to me. Too bad for you, the closest you've gotten to a girl is between you and her fist."

"Aw, Shikamaru, don't be like that. Sakura totally digs me! It's so obvious!"

"Yes, painstakingly obvious," he said in a sarcastic tone. I pretended to ignore his tone. I was too happy for him to ruin my day!

"So, Shikamaru, let's check out our schedules!

Lucky us, we had three classes together! PE, English, and History.

We arrived at our new, giant school. I stared in awe at it for a moment just to soak up it's glory.

"Hey, Shikamaru, what's your first class again? …….Shikamaru?" I looked around me and he wasn't there. Instead, he walked over to Temari to say hi. They started talking to each other. I'm surprised that Shikamaru likes such a bossy girl like Temari. He's always saying how troublesome bossy women are…

I needed to look at my schedule again to figure out my first class. It was math. UGH, not MATH! It was my worse subject! And it's first period! That's my worst period! I'm always too tired to listen… but oh well. I stuck my head in my schedule paper to memorize it as best as I could.

"Hm…math, science, english, pe, history, and boxing. Math, science, english, pe, history, and boxing. Math, sci-"

Ah! I bumped into someone and fell right on my ass. Crap, on the first day too! I got up and saw the boy I had bumped into.

His hair was a jet black. He had it in a cool fashion. He wore shirts from expensive, name-brand places. He had a ring on his middle finger. I could tell already that he was awesome. He was so COOL! I needed to get to know him better! He shot a dirty look at me. His eyes were black as coal, black and lonely. I frowned slightly, but then offered my hand to him. He was still on his ass.

"Haha, sorry about that! Here, let me help you up." I smiled at him. He just slapped my hand away and scoffed.

"I don't need your pity. Get the hell away from me." He started walking away, but I grabbed his wrist and stopped him.

"Hey, what the hell is your problem, jerk? I tried to help you up!" I glared into the boy's dark eyes. I found myself getting lost in his lonliness. He put on a hard face, but he looked so sad.

"Shut the fuck up, moron. Nothing is wrong with me. I just don't like you." He tried to pull away, but I stopped him again. He glared at me. "Let me go, shithead!"

"Math, science, english, pe, history, and boxing."

"…what?"

"That's my schedule. What's yours?"

The strange boy stared at me like I was an alien. He slowly took his schedule out of his pocket and looked over it. His eyes widened.

"So, what's your schedule?" I asked again.

"Math, science, english, pe, history, and boxing." He groaned. I smiled.

"Well, jerkwad, you're stick with me the entire year!"

Itadakimasu- something that you say before you eat a meal. It's sort of like saying "Thank you for this food!" After you finish eating you're supposed to say "Gochisou samadeshita," which is like "Thank you for the meal that I've eaten," but I noticed that Naruto lacks manners and he doesn't say it XD

MWAHAHA! It BEGINS! So… my Author notes…

I wasn't really a yaoi fan until recently. I guess it was because I didn't really like any of the characters in Naruto a LOT LOT. I just was kind of fond of them. I tried making fics of Shino, my fave char, but he's hard to do. I started watching the Naruto/Sasuke grand battle thing and suddenly a spark for Sasuke came up and now I'm writing this fic! XD Hope you like it! Please review! And don't flame, it makes me sad TT Plus, I'll publically humiliate you if ur flame is like, seriously evil. :P
