He paid for it on Sunday morning. The hangover seemed to hover over him all night, just waiting for him to awaken so it could pounce him like a feral cat. He ran into his brother before he left for work on Sunday and had to pretend that he didn't have a migraine that made him want to throw something out the kitchen window. He was on Advil and chicken soup until the afternoon, which he spent studying.
Monday was more of the same. The same people and the same conversations. He ran into Tayuya after lunch period. As she approached him, he disregarded her completely, briskly walking out of the cafeteria and letting the door swing shut behind him. He wasn't sulking, but he believed that there was nothing she could say that would interest him. Kabuto invited him to another party, which Sasuke adamantly turned down. As much as his friends attempted to convince him, he refused to budge.
He told Naruto he'd come to pick him up at the park after school on Tuesday. He was wearing a dark blue button down with jeans and black Converse, his backpack swung over one shoulder. He didn't bother changing before walking over to the park, which was comfortably close to his high school. He approached the same bathroom where he had found Naruto on Saturday. Naruto was lying on his stomach, feet swinging in the air as he worked at a Sudoku puzzle someone must have left at the park. Since Naruto had been given prior warning this time, his hair was neat, and his body was clean.
"Knock knock," Sasuke announced himself.
Naruto smiled, not looking up from his puzzle.
"Who's there?"
"It's your limousine, here to escort you to the gala."
Naruto raised an eyebrow, adjusting an imaginary monocle and pretending to sip at a teacup.
"Well I do hope this one is a Rolls Royce. And with buttwarmers. Anything else simply will not do."
Sasuke rolled his eyes, a light smile on his face.
"Get your ass up. We have places to go."
Naruto closed his book and held out his hand to Sasuke, who hoisted him up.
"Where to?"
"First I'm getting you a new outfit. Can't have you walking around in rags."
Naruto looked a little disappointed.
"Nooo. You're supposed to say 'to the stars.'"
He then paused, apparently needing a while to process the statement.
"Wait... You're buying me clothes?"
Naruto looked up at Sasuke, his eyes open in blatant shock. Evidently, the kid had the processing speed of a sloth. Sasuke had to look away, finding the situation awkward.
"Well... I didn't get you a present. I thought this would be better."
It wasn't completely selfless. He knew a lot of people in this town, and he didn't want people to see him with someone dressed like that. This is why Naruto's gratitude made him a little sick to his stomach.
But he also knew that Naruto got sick of living as he did. He probably didn't like the looks any better than Sasuke did. Maybe just for this one day, Sasuke could let Naruto experience what he had always taken for granted.
"I...don't even know what to say. Thank you, Sasuke."
The raven scoffed, rolling his eyes.
"I'm buying you an outfit, not a Lamborghini. Now let's go."
They made small talk as they walked to a nearby discount store, about a mile out of the way. Sasuke's budget couldn't afford anything too luxurious, and even if it could, Naruto wouldn't hear of it. Naruto grinned as they entered the store.
"Man, it's been forever since I've been clothes shopping."
"I wouldn't have guessed," Sasuke teased.
"Alright, smartass," Naruto said as he punched Sasuke's arm. Sasuke gave him a light shove back, careful so as not to send the lighter male flying.
Sasuke browsed the shoe rack to give Naruto some space while he searched for his own clothes.
"Hey, Sasuke!" Naruto called over.
"Yeah?"
Naruto scratched the back of his head.
"Well, you look like... A stylish enough guy, and... Why don't you pick something that would look good on me?"
Sasuke snickered.
"Need help, Uzumaki?"
"Shut up."
He helped Naruto pick out a good handful of clothing. Neither were sure of Naruto's size, so he had to pick out a few duplicates. There were camouflage shorts, light blue jeans, and a variety of colored tops. Sasuke followed Naruto to the dressing room. He waited patiently in a seat across from Naruto's stall as he changed, which didn't end up taking very long at all. The door flung open, revealing Naruto in his new clothes...a short red party dress.
Naruto used his best falsetto voice, "Sasuke, does this dress make my butt look fat?"
An instant's shock replaced confusion as Sasuke gave another peek just to make certain they had entered the male dressing rooms. Right, unisex. His lips undulated as he attempted not to laugh.
"What butt?"
Naruto had now apparently settled on speaking as a male once again, "What are you talking about? I am fucking voluptuous. Look at these curves!"
Naruto smoothed his hand down from his chest to his ass, swishing his hips to the side.
"I got one for each rib," he grinned.
So, Naruto had a sense of humor about his situation. He was glad to hear it.
"Uh huh," he answered sarcastically, raising his eyebrows.
Naruto lifted his finger to his mouth.
"Now... I'm going to need some large pearl earrings and red lipstick. A young lady needs to put her face on."
He entered the fitting room again, closing it behind him. Sasuke could hear him taking the dress off and changing into something new.
"Never thought I'd help you blossom into such a lovely young transvestite."
Sasuke crossed his arms, leaning back into his cheap plastic chair.
"Right? And please, I know I look really fucking sexy right now, but try not to fall in love with me, okay?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes.
"Good god, Naruto."
But Naruto didn't let that stop him, his voice as animated as it had been.
"Cuz I'm just at that time in my life…ya know? The world is my oyster. I need to play the field. I'm like a fuckin' free bird. Can't chain me, man. I'm in the prime of my life, and maybe we'll talk when I'm older, when I wanna settle this fine ass down and have some fucking babies."
Sasuke was silent, quickly looking around to assure that they were alone. However, Naruto could not see him biting his lip so that he wouldn't start laughing. A suppressed smile was threatening to invade Sasuke's face, a muffled snort betraying him despite his best efforts. And unfortunately for Sasuke, this was just when Naruto finished changing and opened the door.
"Hah! You think I'm funny. I knew it!"
Naruto was dressed in the light blue jeans, the straight legs narrow enough to fit but also baggy enough so as not to make Naruto look too thin. He wore a dark grey tank top with a rust orange button down, which stopped at his elbows. The colors complemented his tanned skin nicely. Sasuke stopped laughing, staring at Naruto for a moment before he spoke. It was strange how simply changing his clothes could transform him like this. He looked like just about any other kid.
"I like it."
Sasuke's words stopped short. Subconsciously, he had always found Naruto attractive. However, now it had become obvious to him. He scolded himself. It was odd to falter like this, to be distracted by another guy's appearance. Had he been staring?
"Really?"
Naruto was grinning at him, pleased by his approval.
"Yeah. You clean up nice."
Naruto flicked his hand.
"Oh stawp, you."
"When did you pick up that dress, anyway?"
Shaking his head, the blond chuckled.
"I just found it in there."
Naruto paused, looking in the mirror.
"So, this one?"
Sasuke nodded. He waited for Naruto to change into his old clothes, afterward buying them at the front. Naruto looked rather guilty when he overheard the total, which barely breached twenty bucks. For a second time, he thanked Sasuke, who shrugged it off. Naruto changed into his new clothes in the restroom, and Sasuke stuffed the old clothes into his backpack.
Their next stop was In N Out. Sasuke had insisted on as much after Naruto confessed that this was also his favorite burger joint. The line was short, and the cashier was a young girl from Sasuke's chemistry class.
"Oh, hi Sasuke!"
She smiled, waving cheerfully.
"Hey."
"What'll you have?"
Sasuke didn't need to read the menu. He had simple tastes, really.
"I'll have a hamburger, extra tomatoes. And this guy's with me."
He pointed to Naruto, waiting for him to place his order.
He scratched the back of his head.
"Uh... I'll have a glass of water."
Sasuke stared at Naruto flatly, who appeared rather embarrassed. He rolled his eyes.
"Have you even eaten anything today?"
"No," Naruto admitted sheepishly.
Sasuke leaned forward, "He'll have a double double and a chocolate shake."
Naruto put his hand on Sasuke's forearm.
"Sasuke! You already treated me."
He grabbed Naruto's wrist and gently pushed it away.
"You need to eat, and I'm not doing this for charity. You're letting me drink some of your shake."
The girl behind the counter giggled.
"Sasuke, are you on a date?"
Sasuke blanched as Naruto laughed, pointing at him.
"What? No! This is my friend."
Out of Sasuke's view, Naruto smiled. Sasuke had called Naruto his friend, in front of a classmate no less. Naruto felt a little silly for letting this affect him so much. The girl leaned forward on the counter.
"Do you always treat your friends out to dinner and share milkshakes with them? That's so adorable."
"Tch. I don't swing that way."
She shook her head, still laughing.
"Alright, alright. In that case, you should come around here again. I'm here on Tuesdays and Thursdays."
Sasuke grunted.
"I'll keep it in mind."
Naruto stabbed the chocolate shake with a straw, smiling as he sipped at it. They took one of the booths towards the front of the restaurant, waiting for their number to be called.
"Hey, Sasuke..."
Naruto took a long sip of his milkshake, clenching his teeth at the resulting brain freeze.
"Hm?"
Sasuke grabbed the shake for himself, taking a modest sip as Naruto recuperated.
"You're...one of the popular kids at school, aren't you?"
He sat the shake back on the table in front of Naruto, leaning back. He wondered why Naruto would ask such a thing.
"You could say that. Why?"
Naruto's eyes fell as he fumbled with the corner of his new button down.
"I just don't know why someone like you would hang out with someone like me."
He sipped at his shake, looking through the clear cap as the beverage shrunk down. Ordinarily, Naruto didn't seem insecure. But every now and again, he would say something like this that made Sasuke wonder. Honestly, Sasuke didn't see what his popularity had to do with any of this. There was a short pause between them until Sasuke answered.
"Don't put yourself down like that."
Naruto's eyes shot back up at Sasuke. He looked surprised.
"I wasn't very popular in school. I never stayed in one place too long growing up."
Naruto still appeared uncomfortable, as he so often did when speaking of his past.
"Is that because you were switching families?"
Naruto nodded, looking uncomfortable. Sasuke wanted to know more. He wanted to know if Naruto ever knew his parents, or what happened to them. But Sasuke understood the need for privacy, more than most anyone else. He wouldn't push Naruto. This was a courtesy Sasuke often wished others would extend to him as well. Again, there was a lull in their conversation.
"You really like movies, don't you?"
Sasuke decided that it was best to change the subject before Naruto's mood fell.
"Yeah. How did you know?"
Naruto rested his elbow on the table.
"You keep making references to them."
Naruto chuckled.
"Do I really do it that much?"
"Just enough for me to notice. Someone bought me a gift certificate to the theater by Broadway."
Naruto toyed with the straw wrapper, tying it into a bow.
"You mean the one that plays classics?"
"Mhm. Want to go?"
Naruto's mouth hung open. Their number was called, and Sasuke grabbed them their burgers and returned to the table. Naruto grabbed his double double, holding it to his nose and breathing in deeply. His eyes closed as he smiled.
"God, Sasuke. You are really spoiling me. First the outfit, then this glorious burger of Valhalla, then a movie?"
He shook his head.
"It's not a big deal. Like I said, I have the gift certificate anyway."
He had been planning on using it to take Itachi with him. However, with Itachi's hectic work and school schedules, Sasuke eventually relinquished that ambition. He missed his brother, and despite Itachi's best efforts, he didn't have much time for Sasuke. So the card just sat in Sasuke's wallet, the corners bent and creased. Sasuke didn't fully understand it, but using it now, with Naruto, made him happy.
Naruto took a large bite of his burger, unable to chew with his mouth closed. Sasuke bit his own neatly, chewing his food slowly and thoroughly. Despite the fact that Naruto's burger was much thicker and larger than Sasuke's, he was already close to half way done.
"Didn't anyone ever teach you to chew with your mouth closed? I'm not doing the Heimlich on you if you choke."
Naruto's voice was muffled by burger as he sipped his shake, "You'd be the worst predator ever. Like hell is my food getting away."
He chomped at the burger again, wiping away a splotch of mustard on his chin. Naruto finished his burger long before Sasuke, sipping on his shake as he patiently waited for the other boy to finish. Naruto had smiled as he ate, glad to have a hot meal for once. He looked like an imbecile, but watching him made Sasuke enjoy his own food just a bit more.
