Review xx
Chapter five
Naruto peered around the hallway his hand trembling slightly as he made his way down the long corridor. He opened the door to his right leading to the music room. Once inside he saw the same scene that had been occurring throughout his house over the last week or so.
Taking a deep breath �dammit you god damn ghost quit leaving the windows open I�m fricken freezing in here you TEME.�
Marching his way to the guest room aka Sasuke-teme�s bedroom, he threw the door open wide without bothering to knock �what the fuck is wrong with you why�d the hell you gotta leave the windows open? I�d like to wake up for once feeling my toes� he billowed angry and numb he could practically see his breath forming in the air, that was how cold the house was.
Sky blue eyes blinked as they took in the scene in front of him. Letting out a loud �eeep� which was of course 100% manly sounding, Naruto whipped around covering his eyes his face crimson from embarrassment. �Ahhhh put some clothes on you pervert�
Naruto had just walked in on Sasuke getting changed.
Except he hadn�t had time to put on any clothes.
Get the picture.
�I�m a pervert says the man who just barged in without knocking� followed by the sounds of clothes rustling.
Naruto could feel his face burning in embarrassment he was too mortified to even reply.
�You can turn around now� taking a few deep breathes to calm down his heartbeat Naruto slowly looked back towards Sasuke, he knew he was still blushing if Sasuke�s amused smirk was anything to go by but damn if he�d let that bastard intimidate him.
Come on Naruto it was just a naked guy, he�s a guy too it wasn�t as if they had anything different, Naruto pep talked himself; but damn Sasuke was really pale and surprisingly well toned. He couldn�t help run his eyes over Sasuke�s clothed body which hid all his muscles making him look more slender than he actually was. His eyes trailed further down-
�Like what you see� Naruto immediately snapped his head up meeting Sasuke�s onyx eyes, flushing crimson again
�What the heck are you talking about� he shouted getting defensive, he could swear there was an evil glint in Sasuke�s eyes
�You�ve been staring at me for a full 5 minutes�
If Naruto didn�t look like a tomato before he did right now. 5 minutes was he really staring at him for 5 minutes his head screamed?
Having been caught Naruto did the only thing to do in this situation �shut up� and stormed back to his room leaving the grinning ghost behind.
Inside the safety of his own room Naruto tried to calm his beating heart, from being caught staring at Sasuke or the fact he was actually checking out his unwanted house guest, he had no idea. All he knew was that in the space of over a week, Sasuke had made him blush, be afraid, feel like an idiot, not mention piss him off and a whole bunch of other emotions something that was very new to Naruto.
Naruto was not usually overly emotional he preferred to keep things to himself and just get on with everything, but Sasuke threw everything out of order. What ever happened to living out the rest of his life in peace and solitude, oh right that disappeared when he got a ghosty for a roommate, he wailed inside his head. He could practically cry form the unfairness from it.
But what shocked him more than anything was that he was checking Sasuke out. Now Naruto was not gay, at least he didn�t think so. Sure he�d never had a girlfriend or was even attracted to a girl but then again he wasn�t attracted to any guys.
He spent all his life just focusing on his work and trying to get somewhere for his mother and when she died he had just trapped himself in his work and trying to become a writer. By the time he�d managed to become an author the situation with Jiraiya occurred and he was just trying to make a life for himself independently, there wasn�t any time for dating or what not so he never really bothered or thought about. The one time he did go on a date, forced by his editor since he needed some experience for his Detective Shikamaru series. But he secretly figured she just wanted him to get laid if the person who looked remarkably like her in some lame costume on the next table was anything to go by. But that went horribly wrong, the girl was overly shy always stuttering and Naruto had no idea what to do, did he tell you he wasn�t a people person.
After that Naruto figured he wouldn�t date for some time beside he just wanted to work on his manuscripts especially since he was so close to completing the first volume of Detective Shikamaru.
And when his editor tried to force him to date again, again saying it was for the book Naruto had replied �If a female author can write stories about homosexual men and even write intercourse without being able to do any of it, why the heck can�t I write a date scene without needing to go on a date.� That wonderfully shut her up and he didn�t have to date instead rely on books and her.
Anyways back to the situation Naruto was rather positive he didn�t like guys, sure he didn�t like any girls but that was because he hadn�t met the right one. Sasuke was just handsome that�s all, and since he was writing romance he had just come to appreciate the beauty of the male body as well as female, even if Sasuke was technique dead it didn�t mean Naruto couldn�t appreciate his looks, made him feel a bit weird about it but as long as Sasuke didn�t disappear like when Naruto tried to get him out of the house or do anything ghosty like Naruto pretty much forgot he was dead.
Yes that was it, the only reason he was staring was because he could appreciate Sasuke�s beauty not because of attraction; please even if he was gay like hell he�d fall for the teme.
Nodding to himself Naruto suddenly remembered why he had gone into Sasuke�s room earlier his anger once again resurfacing �teme making me forget why I was pissed at him� pulling the door open he called put Sasuke�s name so he could go scream at him for making Naruto wake up every morning feeling like he slept in a refrigerator.
......
An hour an a half later of screaming at Sasuke for leaving the windows open and almost causing him hypothermia found Naruto lounging on the sofa watching reruns of crappy T.V. His manuscript had been picked up earlier so he didn�t need to worry about starting on the next few chapters until a little later. Sasuke had left after his shouting match, Naruto neither bothering to ask or caring where he�d gone he was actually rather glad the ghosty disappeared. However now he found himself rather bored with nothing to do.
Flicking through the channels but seeing nothing good on he decided to watch on of his favourite DVDs, it had been some time since he could just sit and watch some animes. Going to his DVD stand he looked at some of the DVDs on view. Running his eyes over them Naruto hummed musing on what to watch, he wanted something light but with some action so Fruits Baskets was taken off the list. Death note, no Naruto shook his head Shinigami that just reminded him too much of his situation, Bleach was definitely a no go for obvious reasons. Hellsing, too much vampire and blood he wanted something light maybe something funny.
�Hum hum� Naruto muttered tapping his chin questioningly, so many DVDs and yet so hard to choose. Finally his eyes landed on Howls moving Castle, it wasn�t so much of a comedy; shrugging Naruto pulled it put from his DVD rack, it�ll do he figured pushing it into the player.
It was halfway into the movie Naruto was far to engrossed in the film to notice the slight shift in weight on the sofa.
�What are we watching?� Naruto practically jumped ten feet into the air; hand on his heart trying to calm down the frantic rhythm
�Teme what the hell� he shouted
Sasuke just stare back at him an expression of �What� marring his face.
�I told you not to sneak up on me� Naruto made out more calmly as his heart rate began to return to normal.
�I wasn�t sneaking up on you it�s not my fault you weren�t paying any attention� Sasuke replied turning back to the T.V.
Naruto just �huffed� going back to the movie.
�What are we watching?�
�Howls moving Castle�
�Hn�
�You know you should really learn people language� Naruto commented sarcastically eyes still glued to the screen, Howl had just flown up into the sky in his deranged grey raven thing form whilst Sophie called out to him. No matter how many times he watched the movie he could never figure out exactly what Howl was suppose to be when he became all feathers. That and why Sophie seemed to have periods of changing back to when she was young, was it suppose to be metaphorical about how she felt or did she actually have periods of changing back into a young girl because that was rather confusing since she was cursed to be an old women. As well did that mean Howl knew she was cursed, okay so maybe Howl did figure it out if the scene when she was sleeping was anything to go by but did she know he knew. Wait, how did she change back into a young woman when she was asleep does that mean the curse was ineffective during her unconscious state?
Naruto started to rub his temples all the questions confusing him and making what was suppose to be an enjoyable movie not so enjoyable. Well at least he remembered why it had been months since he last watched Howl�s moving Castle. Though it was times like this he just wished he wasn�t a writer and could just enjoy watching the movie instead of nit picking at bits that just made no darn sense.
�Stop thinking so hard you might just end up destroying all the remaining brain cells you have left. Dobe�
Naruto paused in his thoughts body tensing scratch that if anyone can turn a movie sour it�ll defiantly be the teme.
Taking deep calming breathes, he did not want to argue to day was going to be a relaxing day calm and peaceful, confusing movies and teme�s would not ruin it for him.
Deciding the best course of action Naruto straightened up his eyes still on the movie blatantly ignoring Sasuke�s comment. Oh goody he mused it was the part where the fat lady was stealing Howl�s heart, just because he didn�t have any romantic experiences didn�t mean he wasn�t into mushy happily ever afters. He actually preferred a happy ending to a sad ending; after all why read a book that end depressingly when life does that for you.
He heard an annoyed �hn� and internally grinned at pissing Sasuke off.
15 minutes later Naruto stretched out his arms yawning as the credits rolled by on screen bringing back some life into his body. Rubbing his eyes he could feel the pang of hunger in his stomach, patting it gently it was time for his ramen break.
Getting up he made his way to the kitchen his mind musing over what he could do with the rest of the day, maybe he�ll just sleep yeah sleep sounded rather enticing and truthfully he couldn�t be bothered to do anything else all day and the mere idea of climbing in that big soft bed curled in the middle was just too tempting.
Ignoring the footsteps of the other person following him Naruto prepared a cup of miso ramen.
Sasuke scrunched his nose in slight disgust as Naruto plopped down on the inning room table, he had poured himself a cup of coffee and now both were facing each other sitting in silence.
It was usually like this when they sat together; Naruto would eat his ramen whilst Sasuke would watch him his nose wrinkled whilst drinking his coffee.
At first it had seriously bugged the crap out of Naruto the teme thinking he had the right to look down on Naruto�s precious ramen. If he didn�t like ramen then so be it he doesn�t need to shove his ideas onto Naruto. Honestly the way the teme always stared at his food whenever he ate it was as if Naruto was demanding Sasuke to eat it. Not that he would ever offer, someone like him would never appreciate the wonders of ramen. Really the guy should be happy Naruto wasn�t saying anything about him drinking his coffee, but noooo he had just had to pick on Naruto for what he ate.
After the first argument they seemed to have come to a truce, Sasuke wouldn�t say anything about ramen being unhealthy and Naruto wouldn�t try helping him move on to the after world. Which resulted in very quiet meals where only slurping and sipping were the only sounds heard, but it appeared looks weren�t part of the agreement hence Sasuke usual look of �yuck� whenever he watched Naruto eat. Although Naruto wasn�t bothered since he was used to eating alone and in silence he usually spent his time thinking about what he�d write for his next chapter.
�Have you been to the attic?�
Naruto paused mouth hanging open with his chopsticks halfway to his mouth looking up at Sasuke surprised. �Eh�
"The attic" Sasuke repeated, Naruto stared at him mildly surprised not only was Sasuke breaking their un-verbal agreement of silence but he was breaking it to ask about the attic. That completely threw him off causing him to answer almost immediately
"No" he paused his face scrunching up in confusion "why?"
"Hn" Naruto stared at him as he drank his coffee completely forgetting about his ramen which was becoming cold from being left untouched.
"Shouldn't you know what's in the attic" Naruto questioned Sasuke didn't answer for a little while instead just drinking his coffee but when he did answer
"Your food's getting cold"
"Shit" Naruto cursed and when he took a bit his ramen was indeed cold, grimacing cold ramen definitely did not taste good he got up and threw it away forgetting all about Sasuke's questioning of the attic, all the while onyx eyes watched him as he complained about wasting food.
.....
Later that night as Naruto finally climbed into the comfort of his bed. Sasuke teme for some strange reason insisted that they spend the day together. It was the first time since they had met that they actually spent time together that wasn't caused because they lived together and just happened to be in the same room together.
It had been nice Naruto mused pulled his duvet over him thinking about the day. At first it was a little awkward. It had been some time since Naruto had been in the company of someone and Sasuke was obviously socially retarded. But after the insults and arguing mostly coming from Naruto's side Sasuke always seemed calm, they had managed to have an actual conversation and hang out.
Naruto had put on another anime, he decided going for Katekyo Hitman Reborn, he was tempted to put in Bleach just to see how Sasuke would react but went against knowing in his mind he would just end up asking questions about the story like how do you die if you're already dead and not enjoy the show.
Reborn wasn't so confusing and Sasuke had seemed genuinely interested when Naruto had put it into the DvD player which resulted in the start of one of the many conversations that followed the rest of the day.
Naruto couldn't help the warm feeling spreading through his stomach who knew talking to someone would be such fun. Smiling relaxed he closed his eyes drifting off to sleep.
......
Naruto thrashed around in his bed his mind plagued by memories he could not come to comprehend.
Darkness.
It was everywhere seeping into everything good Naruto held dear to his heart.
Cold tendrils clawed at his body wrapping around him like a blanket but instead of feeling comfort he felt fear.
He was drowning in what he did not know.
Suddenly his body was engulfed in flames. Climbing, sinking into his flesh the heat was unbearable but he couldn't move he was trapped a prisoner of his body. His mouth opened to scream but nothing came out.
Sweat covered his body everything burned. His arms stretch out trying desperately to hold on to something anything. To save him from this hell his mind dragged him into. But his strength was failing he was about to fall.
Vaguely he heard some one calling out his name, summoning the last reserves of his strength he reached out.
Fearful blue eyes snapped open darting every where in panic. Something was holding him down; Naruto struggled, his mind still not having cleared from the dream.
"Naruto" someone was calling him he recognized the voice but he couldn�t place it all he knew he had to get free.
"Naruto. Naruto" cool hands were placed on his cheeks forcing him to look forward into concerned onyx eyes.
"S-Sasuke" Naruto croaked blinking wearily as he recognized the other, his throat hurt and his voice hoarse as if he'd been screaming for hours.
"Yes Naruto it was just a bad dream" Naruto could hear the relief in the other mans voice but the concern in his eyes had yet to disappear, but Naruto couldn't bring himself to pay attention.
His vision had started to be come blurry as tears threatened to leak out, his body was trembling, unable to handle it anymore Naruto threw himself into Sasuke's arms burying his head in his chest tears pouring out of his eyes without reserve. He could feel Sasuke tense before arms were wrapped around his back an awkward pat on his head but Naruto didn't care. All he knew was in that moment he had felt uncontrollable level of fear but he didn't know why.
