Chapter Fifteen – Sasuke and Naruto grow closer
Naruto loved his new home. I wish I could have grown up here. He had found a picture of his parents on the desk of a room his father had used as an office. They looked so happy together. Naruto looked around the room and went through some of the drawers in the desk. He found scrolls that had on them, what looked like new jutsus that his father had been trying to create, and some scrolls contained notes that the man had written to himself. I'll just read all of these later.
Naruto had created about ten clones to clean the house for him and had even created one to go shopping for food, which allowed him to be able to explore all the rooms. The blond was now tired though and decided he had seen enough of his home for one day. I really need to buy new clothes too, but I'll leave that for tomorrow. He left his father's office and headed to the kitchen to make himself a meal. His clones were all finished with their chores so he dismissed them. Naruto got two cups of ramen out of one of his cabinets and then set a kettle, filled with water, on the stove to heat.
After Naruto had eaten his ramen and threw away the cups, he decided to take a nap. So he headed up to his parent's bedroom. He had chosen to use that room as his own bedroom, because it made him feel closer to his mother and father. He stripped down to his boxers and then pulled the covers down. He got into bed and pulled the covers back over him, falling to sleep right away.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the time that Naruto had been exploring his new home, Sasuke had been training at the Uchiha training grounds on his estate. He had learned hundreds of new jutsus during the years that Naruto had been away. Sasuke had also received training under Gai, and was now even better at taijutsu than Rock Lee. Even though Lee was always a hard worker, he couldn't compare with a Sasuke who had also become a very hard worker. The young Uchiha had learned how to push his emotions out of his mind and focus only on getting stronger. In the past, he focused on revenge and hatred for his brother and that is what kept him from learning more and growing in strength. He had been strong before, but his full potential hadn't been tapped into. Now it was.
But today, he had to struggle to focus his mind only on his training. He kept finding himself thinking of his blond haired friend. He would stop in the middle of what he had been doing and just stare off into space. I never noticed how beautiful Naruto's eyes were before. I know they've always stood out before, but somehow they are even more compelling now. I missed that smile of his, too. The way it just lights up his whole face. Sasuke shook his head to clear it from those thoughts. What is wrong with me? He started to practice some more taijutsu moves he had recently come up with, but a few minutes later, he stopped again. I wonder what Naruto is doing now. Would he be at the ramen stand? He probably didn't get to have ramen as much being on the road with that white haired sannin. Damn! I need to focus! Sasuke tried to get his mind back on his training, but realized after a few more minutes that it was hopeless. So he left the training area and headed back in the direction of his house.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Itachi found out that the fox boy had returned to Konoha and decided to go there himself. He asked the Akatsuki leader if he could go on an extended vacation. He told the leader that he would use the time to find out more about the fox container and how to defeat him. The Akatsuki leader still wanted to get the nine-tailed fox under their control, so he gave Itachi his permission.
Itachi had come up with a plan that would allow him to befriend Naruto without anyone knowing who he is. He had learned a genjutsu that could fool anyone into thinking he was someone else. But he hadn't tested it on Naruto and he wasn't sure if the fox boy would be able to see through it or not. The dark haired man knew that the bloodline limit that the boy possessed was supposed to allow for him to be able to see through any genjutsu, but this was no ordinary jutsu. The only way that Itachi would know for sure was just to use it and approach Naruto, then see what happens.
If it worked, then he would have to win the boy's trust and friendship. He knew the demon container had weaknesses that he could exploit. The boy made friends easily and then trusted them. He was loyal to his friends too. That is what Itachi wanted from Naruto. His trust and loyalty and then with that, he would find out everything he could about what the blond boy could do, and he would poison Naruto's mind against his other friends. Itachi would then be his only friend. This must work. To have that boy willingly hand me over his power is much better and would even be more satisfying than trying to force him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Sasuke had showered and changed his clothes, he had left his house and then went to the village to look for Naruto. When he couldn't find the blond boy anywhere, he decided to go to the Hokage, to see if she knew where Naruto was living now. She had been reluctant at first to tell him, but when he told her that he and Naruto were becoming friends now, Tsunade decided it would be alright for the Uchiha to know. Now Sasuke was standing at the front door of the Kazuma home. He knocked on the door and waited for the blond to answer. It took several hard knocks before the door was finally opened.
Naruto had been sleeping and he wasn't very happy about having his rest disturbed. He was going to yell at the person responsible until he saw it was Sasuke, standing there. “Sasuke? What are you doing here?”
Sasuke couldn't answer, because he was too busy staring at the blond's bare chest. The young Uchiha's face started turning pink. His eyes then drifted down further to look at the bare legs.
Naruto didn't understand what was wrong with Sasuke until he saw where the boy's eyes were looking. The blond realized he had answered the door wearing only his boxers. Naruto blushed. “Uh, um, come in.” He stepped back to let the other boy in, then turned to run up the stairs. “I'll be back in a minute!” Naruto rushed up the stairs to go to his room and throw some clothes on.
When Sasuke could no longer see Naruto, he was able to finally get control of himself again. God, Naruto is hot! I can't believe how seeing him like that is affecting me. I had seen him in only boxers before, when we were younger, but it had never affected me like this. Sasuke walked into the living room and sat down in one of the chairs. He had to try to get his body back to normal. He had an erection and he didn't want Naruto to see it.
The blond came back downstairs and then went into the living room. He saw that Sasuke was already sitting down and so he went to another chair, that was across from the raven haired boy, and sat down himself. “Um, sorry about that, Sasuke. I was sleeping and forgot to get dressed before coming down.” Naruto started to blush in embarrassment. He didn't look in the other boy's eyes.
Sasuke took a deep breath, then found his voice. “Don't worry about it Naruto. So how do you like your new home?”
Naruto smiled, then looked in the other's eyes. “I love it, Sasuke! There are things of my parent's all over here. It will take me weeks to go through everything.” Then the blond's expression became wistful. “I just wish I had known about this when I was younger. I would have loved growing up in this place. It would have made it less painful, to know I had loving parents and a home.”
Sasuke felt something tugging at his heartstrings. I was able to grow up in my family's home and I even got to be with my parents for a while. Naruto was alone for so many years. Yet he doesn't seem bitter at all. I was such a fool before. I was selfish when I should have been his friend. “Well, you have plenty of time now to get to know more about them.” Then Sasuke decided to change the subject. “You're still a chuunin, aren't you?”
Naruto nodded. “Yes, I didn't get the chance to take the jounin exams. I guess I'll take the next ones. Do you know when they will be?”
“Next month on the sixteenth. Sakura, Hinata, Kiba, Tenten and Chouji are going to take them.”
“What about Shikamaru?” He's the smartest of our group!
Sasuke smirked. “Too lazy.”
Naruto was surprised. “What? That baka! I can't believe it!” Then Naruto thought about Shikamaru's personality again. “Okay, I guess I can believe it. What about Lee then?”
“Well, Lee is better now, but he still only uses taijutsu and that won't be enough for him to pass the jounin exams.”
I need to help Lee! But how? “He has plenty of chakra reserves doesn't he?”
“He has enough for the basics, Naruto, but he has to open the chakra gates in order to get more power and that is dangerous. He doesn't have enough chakra to be able to do high level ninjutsu and genjutsu.”
“I think I'll take a look at Lee tomorrow and see if there is anything I can do about that. I want him to be able to fulfill his dream of being one of the greatest ninjas. I know he can't be that happy to see all his friends becoming jounins without him.”
Naruto still has such a big heart. He is always looking for ways to help those he cares about. He needs someone to do the same for him. “Naruto, now that you are back, do you want to do some training with me everyday? When neither of us are on missions, of course.”
The blond looked at the other boy in surprise. Then he smiled. “Sure Sasuke! That would be great!” Sasuke has been so nice to me since I came back. It's so hard to believe how much he's changed. I really like this new Sasuke.
“Would early morning be fine with you, dobe?”
Naruto no longer got mad at Sasuke for calling him a dobe. His friend didn't use it as an insult anymore. It seemed to be a nickname now. “Sure, about eight and we meet at the bridge like we used to?”
“That would be fine.”
Both boys were smiling at each other and remembering when they used to meet as team seven every morning.
Sasuke then realized he was hungry. “Naruto, you want to go get some ramen now?”
The blond boy grinned and jumped up from his chair. “Yeah! I'm starving!”
Sasuke laughed and stood up too. “Some things never change.”
Both boys left the house in good spirits.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That night, as Naruto laid in his bed, his thoughts were on his dark haired friend. I had so much fun spending time with Sasuke today! It feels like a real friendship now. I never knew he could smile so much. And he laughed! He seems so content with his life now. It makes me happy. The way he was before, made it hard to get along with him or to even feel sorry for him. I wanted to like him more back then, but he would make me feel so angry a lot. I had a hard time trying to be his friend. As much as I still care for Gaara as a friend, and miss him...I am really feeling closer to Sasuke now. Three years ago, I would never have believed I would want to spend more time around Sasuke. Now, I look forward to seeing him again. I can't wait! Naruto fell asleep with thoughts of his new best friend running through his mind.
On the other side of town, in the Uchiha house, Sasuke was doing the same as his blond haired friend. He was thinking about their new relationship and how happy he felt about it. I actually had fun today. I had forgotten what it felt like, until the dobe reminded me. I can't believe that I once thought that friendship was something that would make me weak. I pushed him away so many times, not letting him get close, not wanting to get close to him. But this attraction I feel for him is bothering me. Friendship is one thing, but to have a romantic relationship with someone is not what I am looking for. Not now. My main goal in life is to first kill Itachi. Only once he is dead, will I be able to have a normal life. But I also have a second goal and that is to rebuild the Uchiha clan. I can't do that with another man. I have to marry a female and have children. I need to fight this attraction I have for Naruto. I will only be his best friend, nothing more. At least he doesn't seem to notice. I'm sure he's straight anyway. He used to have a crush on Sakura after all. So I don't have to worry about him thinking of me as more than a friend. I just have to get my own feelings under control.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few days later, after Naruto had returned from a short B rank mission, he entered the ramen stand and sat down at the counter, then ordered some shrimp ramen. There was a young man, about his own age, sitting a couple of chairs over from him. The teen was very attractive, and had light brown hair and friendly, violet colored eyes. Naruto noticed the boy looking at him, so he nodded at the stranger and smiled. “Hi.”
The stranger nodded and smiled back at the blond. “Hello. They serve really good ramen here, don't they?”
Naruto grinned. “The best! Are you new in town?”
The other boy nodded. “Yes, I just moved here the other day. My name is Amano Sudai.” He reached across the chair, between them, to offer his hand to the blond.
Naruto shook his hand, smiling. “I'm Uzumaki Naruto.” Naruto sat back after they had shook hands. “Are you a ninja?”
Sudai smiled back. “Yes, but I'm waiting for the approval of the Hokage before I'll be allowed to become a Leaf ninja. My rank is chuunin and I want to participate in the upcoming jounin exams.”
“Cool! I'll be taking them too!” Naruto then turned his attention to his bowl of ramen, that had been getting cool while he was talking. He devoured it quickly, then turned back to the other boy. He saw the boy was still looking at him.
Sudai grinned at the blond. “You sure do eat fast.”
Naruto laughed. “Yeah, everyone says that.”
Sudai paid for his meal, then stood up. “It was nice meeting you, Naruto-kun. I hope to see you around again sometime.”
“It was nice meeting you too, Sudai.” After the the brunette had left, Naruto ordered another bowl of shrimp ramen.
Itachi, now going by the name of Amano Sudai, smiled as he walked down the street to head back to the apartment he was now living in. Naruto didn't see through my genjutsu. He is so predictable too. He accepted me right away. It will be easy to become his friend. But getting him to abandon all of his other friends will not be as easy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later that day, Naruto was on his way to visit Sasuke. His friend had told him that he would be back from his mission before noon. It was now two o'clock in the afternoon, so Naruto figured the other boy should be home now. When he got to the house, he knocked on the door.
Sasuke opened the door and greeted the blond, then invited him in. “You want something to drink?”
Naruto nodded. “Yeah, some water.” The blond then went into the living room and took a seat on the couch.
A couple minutes later, Sasuke came into the room and walked over to Naruto, then handed him a glass of water. He sat down beside him on the couch. “I have the morning off tomorrow, do you?”
Naruto had taken a drink of the water and then set the glass down on the coffee table. He looked at his friend. “Yeah, I have a mission tomorrow, but I don't have to leave until eleven am, so I have some time to train with you if you want.”
“That would be good. We haven't had a chance to do it yet, since we talked about it a few days ago.” Sasuke was having a hard time keeping himself from staring at the blond. Why do I keep thinking about how beautiful he looks? I should stop spending so much time with him. The more I'm around him, the harder it is for me to think of him as just a friend. I've even been having dreams about him, the past two nights. But I don't want to push him away. He's the only real friend I have and I enjoy being able to talk with him. I can't talk with anyone else like I can with him. I don't want to be alone anymore. If only I could keep my hormones from messing with me.
Naruto noticed that Sasuke seemed to be distracted. He took the time to study his friend. Lately I've been able to see why all the girls are crazy about him. I never understood it before. I guess it was because of how cold he was. But now that he has changed, I can see how attractive he is. I find it hard not to just stare at him. He's so beautiful. I love to look at his hands too, they are so graceful looking, with those long fingers. More beautiful than any hands I've ever seen. Do I have a crush on Sasuke? What I am feeling about him is much stronger than what I felt about Sakura. I've always admired him, even when I didn't like him as much. I wanted to be like him. I wanted him to acknowledge me. Now I have his attention and his friendship. I haven't seen him giving it to anyone else. Am I the one he cares most about, besides his brother? “Sasuke?”
Sasuke heard Naruto call his name and gave him his attention. “Yes?”
“Am I your best friend now?”
Sasuke smiled. “Yes. Am I yours?”
Naruto smiled back. “Yes!”
“What about Gaara?”
“Gaara is still my friend, but he is busy being the Kazekage now, and he is so far away. You are right here and I enjoy spending time with you. I feel like I could tell you anything and trust you with it.”
“I feel the same way about you.” Sasuke looked away. “I'm glad you are back now, Naruto. I missed you.”
Naruto blushed. “I'm glad I'm back too. And I'm glad you and I have become closer.”
If only we could get even closer, Naruto. But I can't do that. I have to rebuild my clan and you can't help me with that. If I became selfish and tried to have you and then married some female, it may ruin our friendship. I could lose you. Besides, I doubt you are attracted to me in that way. Sasuke looked at the blond then. “Will you stay for dinner?”
Naruto smiled happily at his friend. “Sure! That would be great.”
