Warnings: violence, yaoi.. bad words.. -.-
Naruto stood in his bathroom, going over his reflection in the steamy mirror. He shook his blonde hair, remains of water from his earlier shower flying in every direction, litering the foggy glass as the liquid beaded up and ran down. He ran his hand over the mirror to, once again, free his image so he could observe it. The blonde sighed, not really sure why he was being so picky about his appearance tonight. It wasn't like he needed to be, it was just a party. Shrugging it off, he decided to ignore the mirror in favor of leaving the bathroom to head off for the party. The tan ninja slipped into his sandals before opening the door to his small apartment and stepping past the door frame, being sure to lock it. Once he was positive nobody would be getting in (not that a lot of people would i want /i in), he headed down the stairs of the complex, idly observing the changing colors of the horizon as the sun slowly hid away. He walked at a mildly slow pace, randomly smiling at the shop owners closing up despite the mostly cold looks he recieved in return. The smell of his favorite food invaded his nostrils as he i forced /i himself to walk past Ichiraku's, more than tempted to ditch the party in order to slurp down the delicous noodles.. But Sakura would have his head if he didn't show up. At least Sasuke would be there, that was entertainment enough. The relativly short walk ended as he approached the pink-haired girl's house, not bothering to knock since it seemed a million people were in there already.
The place was crowded, some people mingling outside of the girls apartment, chatting and talking amongst themselves, while others were inside the house, nibbling on the snacks that were set out, or drinking and listening to music. Some were even out back, perhaps smoking or just trying to get out of the crowds and have a bit of peace and quiet. Sasuke scowled at nothing in particular. He'd unfortunately come early, which means he'd been easily spotted and approached. Of course, that was why he was currently standing on the roof by himeslf, watching the party below escalate. He knew he couldn't stay up there for long, though, since it would be one of the first places someone checked for him if he were trying to avoid anyone. His pink haired teammate had decided to throw this little get together to celebrate the ending of her medic training with the gondaime. It wasn't really that Sasuke didn't want to go, but that he preferred to avoid crowds. But for Sakura's sake, and his physical safety, he'de agreed to come and participate. So with that, the raven haired teen sighed and dropped off the roof, landing soundlessly on the ground before stuffing his hands into his pocket and walking in the backdoor, his senses picking up the smell of cheap alchohol, smoke and sweat. He scrunched his nose up, and reluctantly walked further into the room, quirking a brow when a wobbly Kiba waved at him with a bottle in his hand and began stumbling at what would seem, his direction. Sakura, who happened to be on the opposite side of the house, looking for her crush, caught a shock of golden blonde hair and immediately headed in his direction with a smile on her face. "Narutooo!" She squealed happily, throwing her arms around her teammate. Their relation hadn't changed much over the years, though she didn't mind acting more friendly with him on occasion.
The blonde grinned at his teammate, hugging her back as she practially clung to him. He gave her a soft pat on her shoulder before pulling away, remembering when hugging her was top priority. "Congrats, Sakura." He commented, hoping he could dissappear to the food or some place before she started a giant never ending conversation. Out of the corner of Naruto's blue eye, he spotted Lee rambling on to Neji, who seemed to be ignoring everything the green-clad ninja said. "See ya around." The fox-boy said quickly, giving a quick wave before she could stop him. His eyes quickly scanned the room, looking for his other teammate amongst the crowd. The familiar tuft of dark hair was heading through the room, and Naruto sped up to greet him. He wasn't particularly sure how to go about talking to his best friend in public anymore, with how their relationship had escalated over the years, and since Sasuke seemed to want to keep it quiet. Something about 'not wanting to deal with every one's reaction'. The blonde had gone with it though, happy to at least have the pale teen. As he stood in front of the Uchiha, he blinked at him, a grin spreading across his face. "Hey..What's up?" The younger teen poked his finger into the center of other's chest, a little more than roughly.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at his blonde teammate, almost losing his balance at the rough poke to the chest. "You're late, dobe." He said in a low tone, quirking a brow and sending him a look that was only made for the blonde. To anyone else it would probably look like his usual impassive expression, though his eyes held something akin to acknowledgment and maybe something a little softer and welcoming. However, after a moment he scowled, remembering he was still slightly miffed that the stupid idiot had taken so long to show up, leaving him here alone with Sakura of all people. One would think the girl would get over a crush after it went no where for more then 5 years! He turned and set an empty bottle on the small coffee table next to him. Kiba, who had been drunk after only a few minutes of being at the party had walked over to him and shoved the drink into his hands, muttering something about doing them a favor, or something like that. He'd just shrugged, snatched the bottle from the dogboys hands and stalked away with a glare. He blinked and turned back to his teammate, who was still grinning like a moron. They'de been..'together' for a while.. Though Sasuke had said he didn't want to let anyone know about it, at least not yet. It wasn't like he was embarrassed or anything, but as much as the emotionless uncaring asshole he seemed like, he didn't want to make things more troublesome for his whiskered teammate. If the village, let alone his fangirls found out their precious Uchiha prodigy had been taken by Konoha's number one loudest ninja, there was no telling how much grief and trouble Naruto would be given. Not to mention it seemed like most of the village seemed to hate his guts as it was. He didn't miss the cold glares he recieved as they walked through the village. Sasuke opened his mouth to say something to the blonde, whether it was an insult or perhaps something that was only meant for Naruto's ears was unknown, but he immediately snapped his mouth shut with a small click of his teeth and scowled at the familiar feeling of something clinging to his arm. "Sasuke-kun, I found you!" Came a cheery voice. He glanced over to see his cheery pink haired teammate at his side, she blushed cutely, which made him roll his eyes. She was holding two cups that she was now holding out to the two. "I brought you guys some drink, I wasn't sure if you got anything yet." She gushed. Sasuke accepted the small cup gratefully, drinking it down quickly in an attempt to keep from having to speak to the pink haired monster. She continued to talk about how happy she was that they showed up, sending him looks and smiling prettily at Naruto whenever he said something. Frankly, he wasn't paying attention, suddenly finding the cieling unusually interesting for some reason. He hadn't even noticed another person approach their little 'group' and started conversing unti he was jutted out of his thoughts when someone almost bumped into him as they passed.
Naruto sipped cautiously on the drink he'd been handed, randomly commenting or nodding after everything that spilled from Sakura's mouth. Honestly, now that he thought back on it, he couldn't figure out for the life of him why he'd had a crush on her anyway. She was, as Sasuke had tried to tell him many a time, a little on the annoying side most of the time, talking too much and tossing her hair too often. He gave his pale teammate a look of sympathy, noting his slightly annoyed composure. The blonde briefly toyed with the idea of taking him to a different room to occupy themselves otherwise, but quickly threw away the idea as he realized just how hard it would be to hide, much less do something, with the amount of people that were currently occupying the various rooms. The idea was gone in nearly the same instant as someone else joined their group, nearly stumbling across their small circle. "Oh, hey, Lee." He greeted the youth-obsessed nin, who was currently nursing a bottle of sake. i Who gave Lee alcohol? /i The blonde asked himself, quirking a brow at the spandex clad boy. "Hello my youthful friends!!" Lee greeted, saluting the others in his drunken state. "How are you all?" He asked, grinning and standing on his tip-toes. Naruto caught Sasuke's eyes in a silent chuckle at the boy's antics, bringing his cup to his lips to avoid laughing out loud. He glanced down at his watch, noting he'd been here for nearly thirty-minutes, and was ready to leave before he went insane. "I think I'm gonna go say hi to Shikamaru.." He commented, gesturing discreetly that Sasuke follow him elsewhere, heading towards the backyard, which was equally crowded, though with less talkative people.
Sasuke gave a small nod, intent on following Naruto out of the room, just as Neji came over in order to grab Lee before he did anything to drastic. He seemed to be having trouble as it was, attempting to wrestle the small bottle from his teammates hands without actually having to put force behind it. The raven haired teen mentally shrugged, having assumed Neji would have probably taken the opportunity to knock his friend one upside the head while his guard was down. He'd never seen it first hand, though he'd heard all about Lee's drunken accidently the time he'd mistaken Gai's sake for his drink. Just one sip and the entire restraunt had been leveled, apparently. And it had taken one jounin and his teammate in order to restrain him. It was probably a good thing that Neji came before he could drink any more. After all, he had an unusually low tolerance. Sasuke scrunched his nose up slightly. He didn't have room to talk, his tolerance was probably even lower then Lee's. After all, this was the first party he'd ever attended that one of the rookie 9 had ever thrown. The other's he avoided like the black plague, either training or just sitting at home, like he usually did. He watched Naruto's back for a moment, and moved to follow however his arm was caught in an iron grip. He rolled his eyes and turned back, only to see Ino holding his forearm instead of Sakura like he'd been assuming. "Sasuke-kun! Where are you going?!" She whined, ignoring the glare her pink haired friend was sending her from the spot she'd been pushed aside. Of course, the glare had no effect, his fangirls seemed to have become immunte to them over the years. "Ino le-" "-You can't leave yet, we're about to start a game!" She whined, tugging obnoxiously, threatening to rip his arm out of it's socket.
The tan ninja rolled his eyes, seriously about to have to say something to the girls that kept plastering themselves to i his /i boyfriend. But if he did, he'd give it away, so he was forced to stay in silence and allow the girls to touch the oh-so-soft pale skin that made him swoon. The blonde had every right to be annoyed with it, if he couldn't molest Sasuke in public, then they shouldn't be able to either. "Ino, is it one hundred percent neccesary for us to participate in the game?" He asked, pouting in annoyance, resisting the urge to pull the Uchiha away by his other arm. "Of course it is!! We're playing truth or dare!!" The blonde girl informed them, giving Sasuke's arm another tug. Naruto groaned mentally, truth or dare could lead to i a lot /i of bad and unwanted things, especially if alcohol was involved. The female ninja smiled in victory, pulling the pale teen over to the forming circle on the floor. Naruto followed with a roll of his eyes, seating himself next to his pale lover. Of course, the inevitable was taking place, and several tall bottles were being placed in the middle of the circle, shot glasses being passed around to the participating members. He idly wondered how far this game would go, and who would pass out or leave before it was over. "I go first! If you pick dare, and don't accept, you have to drink a shot. If you pick truth, and we know you're lying, you have to drink two." Sakura called, putting a finger to her chin as she pondered on who to pick. "Sasuke-kun! Truth or dare?"
Sasuke was sitting rather rigidly as he was practically shoved into the small circle of people. As he looked around he saw many familiar faces, Kiba, TenTen that shy Hyuuga girl and even Shikamaru was there. No doubt he'd been conned into it by his female teammate just as he himself had been. There were a few others that he didn't even bother to list out or acknowledge as Sakura challanged him. Figures that he'd have to go first. He glared at the bottle in front of him for a moment, before leaning back on his hands. "Truth." He said evenly. It earned him a few quirked brows and whispers, but there was no way in hell he was going to choose a dare at that moment. Not if it was Sakura or Ino, no doubt they'de do something annoying like dare him to go on a date with them or something ridiculous like that. Sakura brought a finger to her chin thoughtfully for a moment, a pretty blush making it's way onto her already rosy cheeks. "Okay! Who do you think is prettier, Me or Ino-pig? Me, right? Right??" She asked, leaning forward a bit in anticipation for the answer. Sasuke just blanched, looking between the girls in an almost paranoid fashion. He glanced over at the dobe for a moment, perhaps somewhere in the back of his mind hoping the idiot would help him out, though that train of thought was derailed when he noticed the blonde was turned to the person next to him, blabbing about something, no doubt food or something dumb like that, he thought to himself. He felt cornered, the two girls staring hungrily at him while others watched and waiting til their turn. "..I pass." He said, reaching forward and snatching up the bottle. He'd rather have to gulp down the rancid liquid then have to answer that question. The drink burned his throat, almost making his eyes water. He took a couple of swigs and dropped the bottle back down, ignoring the disappointed looks on Sakura and Ino's faces. Ino claimed it was her turn this time, considering Sasuke had passed his own. He didn't care, though. Let them play their stupid game. The platinum haired blonde girl looked over the small group for a moment. "Hinata! Truth or dare!" She exclaimed. The pale girl flushed slightly, glancing up from the carpet she'd been staring at. "U-Uhn..Dare." She murmured, much to everyone's surprise, even Sasuke was shaken out of his light daze at the challenge. (He was suddenly feeling very light and unusually..Easy going at the moment?) "Yosh..!" Ino said, grinning. "I dare you..To..." She paused for a moment, looking around before her eyes settled on her target. "Kiss Naruto!" She announced, knowing Hinata had a crush on the boy. This was obvious since she turned 20 more shades of red.
Naruto perked up as he heard his name mentioned, following the word 'kiss'. If he'd been listening correctly, the dare had been directed to Hinata. He glanced over at Sasuke, deciding it would be safer for him to decline allowing Hinata to accept the dare. His tan hand raised in the air. "If I say no, does that mean we both have to drink?" He asked, glancing at the shy girl across the circle nervously. From the blush on her cheeks, she looked liked he was doing her a favor. The blonde and pink-haired girl discussed it briefly, before giving him an answer. "Yes, you have to drink, too." The both of them reached for bottles, each of them taking a single drink of the burning liquid. This was going to be really bad.. If i Sasuke /i had no tolerance, then he was screwed.. "Um.. N-Naruto-kun.. T-truth.. or dare?" The blonde thought for a moment, if he said truth, and they assumed he was lying, he'd have to drink twice, which would do him no good. But if he said dare, being the bold one he was, he'd have to embarass himself infront of all his peers. The safest bet was to pick truth, and hope they didn't say he was lying.. but, what's the point in playing it safe in a game of truth or dare? "Dare. I pick dare." He announced, crossing his fingers hoping the dare wasn't drastic. "I..I d-dare you to.. tell us who you're in love with.." The fox-holder immediatly wished he'd picked truth, this would be a hard one to lie about. Everyone knew his crush on Sakura had long since faded away, so he couldn't use her.. They also knew he didn't have anything special for Hinata, or Ino, since he considered the both of them i just /i friends, or he would have shown some kind of interest in them. His eyes made their way to Sasuke, who seemed to be holding in the effects of the alcohol. He couldn't tell.. The blonde reached again for the bottle and took another drink, squinting his eyes and shaking his head as he set the bottle back down. He definatly should have stayed home from this one..
Sasuke wasn't sure if he was relieved or not that Naruto had decided to pass his turn. It shouldn't have surprised him that Ino had done that dare. Those two girls- Sakura and Ino, always seemed to have some type of sadistic pleasure into getting into other peoples business. 'This isn't a damn dating service.' he told himself mentally. When he'd heard the dare, though, something swelled in his chest. Whether it was anger or frustration..Envy maybe? He didn't know. He wasn't sure what his actions would have been if the blonde had actually moved to..To kiss that Hyuuga girl. The one that was alway sending him fleeting glances and blushing when he was around her. Sasuke didn't even realize he was glaring at the girl; he blinked and looked away, his cheeks slightly flushed from the liquor, or maybe even embarrassment? For suddenly feeling so..Possessive and worried over something so stupid..? He was actually starting to think this little 'game' was a bad idea. He wasn't acting like himself. He was letting his mask slip, though he hadn't even noticed it at all.
After several more refused dares, a few accepted ones had caused Naruto to quit choosing the option, and the truths he wouldn't tell or lied about, left him blinking in a daze, chuckling at random times at something somebody said which wouldn't have been funny had he been sober. Several times he'd just layed back on the floor, looking up at the ceiling, which made him giggle for some strange reason. It was his turn to choose somebody, and he'd chosen Sasuke, whom in his equally drunken state had picked dare. The blonde wondered what he could do to flair the Uchiha's testy temper, or just embarass him all together. "I..dare you to.. hmmm.. get up and follow me." He ignored the looks of question he recieved from the other ninjas, staring as the pale teen awaiting an answer. The tan nin's cheeks were flushed from the amount of alcohol he'd consumed, and his fingers were tingling. His system of control had long since went down the drain, and he was ready to touch the soft skin that had been tempting him all night long. If he had to wait another minute, he'd go insane. The blonde made to stand, every ounce of his control keeping him from falling over as he waited for the pale teen to get up or refuse.
Sasuke let out a snort of amusement, his smoldering black eyes following the blonde's body as he stood up. "What kind of dare is that..Do-be?" He drawled, a sly grin on his face. He knew Naruto was probably up to something or another, though that dare was..Completely unspecific. Follow him? Where? And why? Surely the idiot knew that since this was a dare, the participants would want to follow and see what the dare was, right? He chuckled to himself, pushing himself up from his seated position, accidently knocking his and Naruto's practically empty bottles to the floor as he did so. He didn't really feel the wave of intoxication until he attempted to stand up, probably because of the sudden circulation moving from his head to his feet. Of course, he didn't allow himself to fall, perhaps stumbled..-barely- and pause for a moment before he was sure he had control over his leg muscles again. He waved off his other teammate, who had looked like she was about to try to help him up. He ignored the rest of them and shoved his hands into his pockets, like usual, and glanced up at the blonde, looking thoroughly amused at something. His looked over the whiskered teen for a moment, who was just wearing a blakc t-shirt and his usual orange pants. Apparently he'd taken off that gawdy jacket while he hadn't been paying attention.. "Well, deadlast?" He asked, shifiting his weight from one foot to the other..Or maybe he'd almost just fell down and caught himself? Who knew.
Naruto smirked, gesturing to the rest of the group to sit back down as a few of them made to stand. Frankly, at this point he didn't care if they knew what might go on or not. All he was interested in was feeling that pale skin pressed against his own, slick with sweat and bruised with kisses. But.. where ever should he take him? A closet? No..too small. The backyard? Too open to wandering eyes. That left the bathroom, which people might be using, and Sakura's bedroom.. The idea of being alone with Sasuke, especially with his intentions, in the pink haired girls room was oddly arousing. It was settled then, the blonde turned carefully on his heel, making his way to the girl's bedroom with the Uchiha trailing behind him. If Sakura had called any protests, he heard none, too far gone in alcohol and his desire to even care to hear. He fumbled a bit for the door-knob, pushing the door open once he got a hold of it. He closed it again, and turned the lock, leaning back against the door. The only light in the whole room came in from the window, which wasn't much, saying it almost nine anyway. The younger teen stood still, watching the pale teen. Absently, he bit his lip, waiting for the older teen to do something.
Sasuke blinked, glanced over his shoulder at the door then looked over Naruto's shoulder, then to the cieling above them almost as if he'd just noticed they were in a different, darker room. Though there wasn't much light, he could see the walls were pale and decorated with different things, papers and..Were those flowers? There was a bed in the far corner, covered in pillows and a comforter that hadn't been remade after a night of sleep, and a desk not far from the bed. He scrunched up his nose in distaste at the sight, but that was what was bothering him. It was the smell. It smelt all too familiar, that sweet obnoxious unnatural smell that invaded his nose everytime Sakura possessively clung to his arm or shirt, or attempted to throw her arms around him. Even with his senses dulled by the alchohol, it was still almost overwhelming. He'd followed Naruto carlessly, knowing what he probably wanted, but not relaly being able to bring himself to care. He narrowed his eyes at Naruto, curling his lip slightly in distaste. "Oh hell no." He muttered, grabbing the blonde wrist and wretching the door open, yanking him into the hall, ignoring the strange looks they got from a few people. He wasn't even sure what he was looking for, but he didn't want to be in that stuffy room any longer. It was like having Sakura breathing down his neck and distracting him from what was his.
The blonde blinked as he was more or less i jerked /i from the room by the pale teen. So maybe Sasuke didn't like Sakura's room, whatever, a room was a room to him. Though the pink-haired girl might not approve of them doing such things in her bed, but hey, she wouldn't have had to know about it. If the older teen had something against doing it in Sakura's house, and he wanted to go to one of theirs, then Sasuke was carrying him there. No way was he walking to another house to satisfy his desires. Naruto trailed behind the Uchiha closely, having no other choice since the older teen had a hold of his wrist and all. "Sasuke.. If.. I'm remembering r-right," He paused, unsure of whether he was being heard of not, "the dare was for i you /i to follow i me /i .." He continued, debating just grabbing some random room to continue out his plans with or without the other's approval. The blonde gave a quick glance to the group of people staring at them with quirked brows, giving them a look which clearly told them to mind their own business.
Sasuke stopped aburptly, stumbling forward a little bit when Naruto's body ran staight into his back. He sent a scowl over his shoulder, though he was silently contemplating whether ot not he wanted to punch or jump him. He hadn't really been paying attention to where they'de been walking, nor was he paying attention to his surroundings at the moment as he continued to stare at the blonde, still holding his wrist tightly. "I did follow you, dobe." He drawled. "But you see, I have a problem with being so close to you yet only being able to smell Sakura. It's a huge turn off." He said bluntly, quirking a brow and putting his free hand on his waist in a matter of fact manner.
A flush barely made its way to the tan teen's cheeks at the comment, had they been alone, he would have been fine. But the people around them all looked up, having heard the exact same words. "So wait a second.." Ino started, a knowing smirk coming to her lips. "Sasuke, you're turned i on /i by being close to Naruto, but i smelling /i Sakura turns you i off? /i .. wouldn't that mean you were.." She paused, clearing her throat. "..gay..?" Naruto rolled his eyes, and Sasuke had been worried about i him /i spilling their secret.. By now, the grip on his wrist had gone slack, and he pulled his arm free, letting it fall by his side. "Wow.. this is.. awesome.." The blonde stated, more than a hint of sacrasm chasing his words. He folded his arms over his chest uncomfortably, looking up at the ceiling pretending not to notice anybody.
