Chapter 2 – Now all I Need are Bras

Naruto slumped to the floor as soon as he was sure Sasuke had been long gone. 'What the hell have I done? There's no way I can make it through tonight without Sasuke figuring it out...Tonight...Shit, this is like a date isn't it! My first date…my first date has to be with Sasuke-teme...' Naruto leaned forward into a crouch and gripped his head, his hair pooling at his feet. "This isn't happening...Gaara has a demon, why the hell isn't he going through all of this..." Naruto's head snapped up. "Gaara! That's right! What if his demon's been stolen too?" Naruto stood up, and ran over to, tripped over to more accurately, the telephone and dialed Gaara's number.

"Hello?" It was Temari.

"Hi, can I speak to Gaara?" Naruto asked nervously. There was a bit of an uncomfortable silence until the other voice finally spoke up.

"Who are you?"

"I..Uhh..."

"Well, he's not here anyway."

"Temari I—"

"He's not— How do you know wh—" Temari cut in.

"Listen, Temari... I know what happened. Please give the phone to Gaara."

"Nothing's happened. I told you. He's not home. Now listen, first of all, what the hell's your name?"

"Uhm...well..." Naruto paused for a moment too long and Temari's patience wore through during that lapse of conversation.

"Right. Good bye."

"W-Wait! Uhmm...it's...I'm..Naruto."

"...Ah..."

"Yes, now can I speak to Gaara?"

"W-Well...I suppose..."

Naruto 'hrmm-ed' impatiently as he listened to sounds of shuffling and the bickering voices of two stubborn, headstrong women. Soon he heard the phone being shoved into a pair of hands, dropped, and then picked up again.

"Hello?" Said a semi-cautious voice.

"Gaara?"

"…no"

"Gaara, I know it's you."

"I'm not him. Does Gaara sound like a girl to you? Or are you just stupid? Who is this?"

"God Gaara, you're even more defensive as a girl. It's me, Naruto."

More silence. "Oh. Well, Kankuro has been making fun of me since sun-up, and Temari's been trying to get me out of the house to go clothes shopping. Can you believe her? I mean like…" Gaara stopped abruptly as soon as he realized what he was saying and how much of an idiot he must have sounded like.

Naruto laughed.

"How long have you been like that? You're acting like a girl."

"A couple days. But it's not like you won't start doing it either."

Naruto was silent; thinking about that 'date' he'd agreed to earlier.

"Hmmm? Naruto, have you done something? If your silence is anything to go by..."

"Err…"

"Come ooooon" Gaara whined, "You HAVE to tell me!"

Naruto was about to respond when he heard a 'headdesk' on the other end of the line. But he continued all the same. "Well…how 'bout I come over to Suna and talk to you there, ok? I'm not scheduled for any missions."

"Sure! When can you come?" Gaara sat back on his bed and crossed his legs

"I'll start traveling the day after tomorrow ok?"

"Uhh...ok sure."

"I would try and leave tomorrow, but you know, 'nature calls.'"

"...What?"

Naruto sighed in mock exasperation. "Gaaraaaa~ I have a date! Of course I can't go tomorrow~" Naruto heard Gaara gasp with surprise and let out a shy giggle, immediately feeling disgusted by his mushy, girly reaction to the 'meeting' he was scheduled to have with Sasuke that night. "Well, I'll talk to you later. Bye, Gaara!"

"Wait! You can't go now! I'm dying over here! Naruto? NARU—" Gaara got cut off by the dial tone. "Damn him…"

"You done chatting with your friend, little sis?" Kankuro teased, "I'm waiting to use the phone. Or were you talking to your boyfriend?" Kankuro started laughing so hard he shook. He still couldn't get over Gaara's petite, female form. Hell, Gaara was freaking adorable; in a harsh, temptress sort of way.

"For your information I was talking to Naru-chan…GAH!" This only made Kankuro laugh harder, "So, that dropout got transformed too? HAHAHAHA!"

Gaara just rubbed his temples; "You are soo lucky I don't have my sand controlling abilities right now. When I get them back, you are SO dead!"

Kankuro was unaffected, if anything, his laughter was encouraged by Gaara's whiny threat.

"Hey Gaara…chan!" Temari called, trying out the new nickname for her littlest brother…erm…temporary sister, but decided against using it when she saw the murderous glare he was shooting at her, "You wanna go shopping?" She asked, trying to divert his anger away from the nickname.

"NO!" Gaara's cheeks flushed. This 'attention' from his siblings was wearing on his patience. Plus...the whole damn situation was freaking embarrassing.

"Oh, so you're gonna go around looking like a girl in way to baggy boys clothes that'll fall off your hips? C'mon Gaara, that's like saying to the rest of Suna 'someone please pull off my loosely fitting clothes and rape me!' Do you really want that? Plus, people might start to act up when they've learned that their Kazekage has been stripped of all his power."

Gaara rolled his eyes. Temari sounded like an over-protective, over-bearing, neurotic mother hen that didn't want her precious 'baby' going out into the streets at night. But, on the other hand, Gaara couldn't go about in his customary clothes lest he wanted people to assume things he'd rather keep secret. So, for the sake of disguise, he reluctantly agreed.

"SWEET!" And before Gaara could even blink, he was dragged along the streets of Suna and thrown into a dressing room.

o()o()o

Naruto stared at himself in the mirror. And, though he hated himself for thinking this way, he didn't have a thing to wear. 'Well,' he thought to himself, 'I might as well go shopping.' Naruto quickly left his home, hoping not to be seen by any of his neighbors, in a T-Shirt and some tight Jeans. He thought that since the jeans were kinda tight, they could look slightly more feminine. He didn't look half bad actually, just kind of plain. He tied up his hair into a high, loose ponytail and let several locks hang around his face.

He walked down the street trying to ignore the wolf whistles, stares, and perverted, flirty, catcalls and cheesey pick-up lines. When he felt like he couldn't handle the obnoxiousness of the male species, he walked into the first store he saw and made a beeline towards the clothes racks. He was hoping that he wouldn't have to be in that form for very long, so he wanted stuff that at least looked decent, but wouldn't cost too much. He picked out a few skirts for femininity's sake, some shorts, better fitting jeans, and several cute tops. He paid, and before he left the shop he changed. He had even picked out a nice off the should sweater and tight jeans for his 'special night.' Then he remembered something; something important to all females. 'Bras...crap. I don't want to go into Veronica's Secret.' He knew he had too, but he was still hesitant. The masculine portion of his mind was still in there, and it did NOT want to have to sort through racks and racks of girl's panties until he found something that fit. He would much rather have gotten them out of a girls dresser, but now that he was a girl, supposedly, he wouldn't dream of stealing them.

He stood in front of the door for a while, probably receiving an odd look every now and again from people walking by. 'Just suck it up,' he told himself, 'its just underwear...' And with that, he took a deep breath, exhaled, and stepped through the door.

"Umm," he asked the store clerk in a hushed voice, "Can you uhh…h-help me?"

The clerk looked up from her catalogue and readjusted her glasses before smiling brightly down at her customer. Naruto instantly liked her, she gave of a friendly glow, one that instantly inspired trust. "Oh hello there young lady. Is this your first time buying bras on your own?"

'Well, I guess that's true...' Naruto nodded shyly.

"Well then, let me help you find something that will fit you comfortably, ok? Oh, how silly of me, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Natalie."

"I'm...uh..." Naruto had forgotten his alternative name for a second. "I'm Naoko."

The kind store clerk took Naruto into the changing rooms at the back of the store. Naruto slipped off his shirt, and wasn't quite sure what it was that he was supposed to do next, and Natalie could sense his unease, "Would you be uncomfortable if I measured you? We'll be able to figure out your size more easily that way."

Naruto, admittedly, was nervous about a woman seeing him naked, but agreed nonetheless. Figuring it'd be ok since they were both, physically at least, women. "N—No…I don't mind." He unlocked the door and made sure he was standing in a spot where he wouldn't be seen when Natalie would open the door.

"Ok, I'm coming now ok?" Natalie entered and pulled out her tape measure. "Ok, if you'd like, you can turn around and I'll measure you from behind.

Naruto, appreciating Natalie's offer, turned around so his naked back was facing her.

Natalie gave a start and dropped the tape to the floor. There was a slight waver in her voice as she asked a tentative question. "Oh my, Naoko, what...what is this that you have on your back?"

Author's Note

Ok, well...umm...people are OOC cause I haven't watched Naruto since like middle school, and even then I didn't really get into it and I've just finished junior year so it's been a while. lol excuses, excuses...
