Hey everybody! I know I'm suppose to be working on This is Not a Game, but I need an outlet for when I'm stuck on it, so this was born. There will be a new chapter of TINAG next week, but for now, here's something comedic to read.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, obviously. For those wondering, yes this story is based on an episode of How I Meet Your Mother, which I also don't own. Enjoy!

7:23 Friday Night

"It's time to party!" yelled a tan brunet bursting through the doors of a local pub, grinning like a madman. The bartender looked up briefly to smile at the regular occurrence as the brunet's friends entered their favourite bar behind him in a much more subdued manner.

The Will of Fire pub was a popular hangout for students attending Konoha University or those just looking for a good time. The beer was cheap, the music was good, and there were plenty of people to try your luck with and get shot down by.

"First rounds' on Shika!" the brunet announced, clapping his hand on his roommates' shoulder and giving a hearty squeeze. He had no real sympathy for the man, since the Nara had brought it on himself. For a genius, the raven haired man had his moments of pure idiocy, and betting against their third roommate was always a bad idea.

On his way to becoming the greatest vet the city had ever seen, Inuzuka Kiba was a university student who'd just finished his third year finals, and was ready for a night of mischief and mayhem with his roommates, Uzumaki Naruto and Nara Shikamaru. The three friends had grown up together, attending the same elementary, middle, and high school along with a few of their other friends. Now they shared their three bedroom apartment in the building across the street from their favourite pub, and went to the same University.

Naruto was working his way towards a degree in child psychology on a scholarship he didn't know his best friend had created just for him. Shikamaru, on the other hand, was just taking random courses, and still undeclared after three years of school with no signs of committing. The only reason the Nara had gotten away with doing absolutely nothing this long was because of his family name and money.

The large group of friends that had tagged along with the three roommates decided to party the night away in the attempt to cheer up an unusually depressed Naruto. Originally, the blond student had made plans to catch up with his best friend, playing video games, watching movies, and anything else the other man would have wanted to do, but because of reasons beyond his control, the night had been called off. Naruto hadn't taken the news well, scaring his friends when he'd turned down free ramen. Tonight had been something he had been looking forward to since the proposition two weeks ago, even buying a small carton of cherry tomatoes he was sure would go to waste now.

"Troublesome," muttered Shikamaru, scratching the back of his head just below his spiky pony tail, and shrugging the tan hand off his shoulder before he shuffled over to the bar.

The raven haired student should have known better than to bet whether or not Naruto could convince their friend Neji that the psychotic redhead, often seen around campus, liked him and to ask him out. Shikamaru lost with an epic performance from Naruto, forcing him to pay for a round of drinks the next night they all went out. Why the genius had bet against Naruto no one knew, as his blond roommate had yet to lose due to his unparalleled luck. What the lazy genius Nara failed to take into consideration was the fact that Naruto knew the so-called psychotic redhead. The mans' name was Gaara, and Naruto already knew that Gaara had been crushing on Neji for some time now, and often stalked him around the school grounds despite the fact he didn't attend the school.

Making their way over to their favourite booth, the group of six friends took a seat while Shikamaru went for drinks. The booth was situated in the back corner, away from the crowd, but still close to the bar. The overstuffed red seats had seen better days, and the large dark mahogany table may have looked a little grubby under the single, three bulb silver lamp swinging above, but it was theirs, even had their name on it.

First to slide in was Haruno Sakura, taking her place against the wall in the rounded booth, her roommate Yamanaka Ino claiming the spot on her right. Both women were students as well, also having grown up with Naruto and his roommates. Ino was a botany major, Sakura on the other hand was pre-med.

Taking the place to Ino's right, sitting on the edge, was Sai. Not much was known about the awkward artist. Naruto had caught him painting him one day. After talking for hours, he had invited Sai to hang out with his friends, and the older man had been with them ever since. Sai was socially inept, often insulting people without meaning to, or was unable to grasp social conventions.

Akimichi Chouji squished into the spot next to Sakura. The aspiring chef attended a local culinary school, as well as worked part time at his family's restaurant. He and Shikamaru had been best friends almost since birth.

A few of their other friends hadn't been able to join them. Though in Aburame Shino's case, he just didn't want to go out. Whereas cousins, Hyuuga Neji and Hinata had been coerced into attending a business party hosted by the well respected Uchiha family in hopes of building better connections among Konoha's elite. Much to his uncles' dismay, Neji had even taken along his new boyfriend.

Their unique friend Rock Lee, on the other hand, had set out with his uncle on some sort of spiritual retreat into the wilderness. People were taking bets on whether or not they came back in the allotted time, or ended up running wild. Some didn't think they'd come back at all.

Naruto was pushed into the booth by an overexcited Kiba, who followed him in. Soon after Shikamaru returned, the server behind him set seven pints on the table in front of them. He managed to steal the spot on the end next to Kiba, effectively blocking the bouncing man in.

"I can't believe Sasuke ditched me to go to some uppity party with his brother," mumbled the blue eyed blond bombshell known as Naruto. He sunk further into his depression as he thought of his best friend, Uchiha Sasuke.

Much to his dismay, the raven haired male had been dragged to a company party by his older brother, Uchiha Itachi, forcing him to break his plans with Naruto. He knew Naruto had been looking forward to their night, he had to, but was promising himself he would make it up to the blond.

Itachi was the CEO and president of Sharingan, a multi-million dollar company. His little brother, Sasuke, was the VP and Itachi's favourite source of entertainment. The horrible and traumatizing things Itachi put his brother through in the name of entertainment often had Naruto storming the Sharingan headquarters and knocking down the CEO's door in Sasuke's defense, not that the youngest Uchiha needed it. Despite the unconventional relationship between the two siblings, Itachi and Sasuke were close, and Sasuke never went down without a fight, aided by Naruto or not.

Naruto and Sasuke had been friends since elementary school. Naruto had been an orphan taken in by a family friend and his lover, while Sasuke was the youngest son of the business tycoon, Uchiha Fugaku. They'd met their first day of kindergarten.

Naruto had been playing with a stuffed frog when Sasuke had been brought in by his mother Mikoto. After a stern warning to play nicely with the other kids, Sasuke had wandered around the room until his eyes fell on the little blond angel playing in the corner.

Walking over, he stood and watched the younger boy, gasping in shock when shocking blue eyes looked up and met his gaze, a broad smile stretching over the tanned face. With that simple act, Naruto had sealed his fate. Sasuke immediately grabbed the stuffed animal and threw it across the room. His mother and teacher watched in horror as it landed at their feet.

Before the blond could open his mouth to protest, the little raven had knelt down and pulled Naruto into a tight hug, declaring the boy 'mine'. In return, the Uzumaki had wrapped his arms around Sasuke and giggled. They had been best friends ever since.

"I can't believe you're still friends with that bastard after all these years," Kiba exclaimed. "You two have been inseparable since I met you, and that was twelve years ago, but you guys knew each other before that."

"Yeah, we've been together since we were five." Naruto smiled softly as he downed half of his drink. "We don't get to see each other enough anymore, but he's still my best friend. I know you guys don't understand, you only see his cold exterior, but he means the world to me." He rubbed his eyes tiredly before they flew open in a rage. "Tonight was supposed to be our night to chill," he shouted, slamming his hands down on the table, the drinks all shaking. "But of course, his dick of a brother dragged him out to some company party, forcing him to cancel our plans." He cursed Itachi under his breath, elbowing a snickering Kiba in the ribs.

"Ow," the Inuzuka whined. "What the fuck man."

"I always thought Itachi was really nice," Sakura said. "And super hot and sexy," she added dreamily. "I mean, he's no Sasuke-kun, but still."

Sakura and Ino swooned over the sexiness of Uchiha Sasuke, their eyes glazing over with a faraway dreamy look. "Sasuke-kun," they sighed in unison.

Shikamaru snorted into his drink, while the rest of the table rolled their eyes at the familiar behaviour. The two girls were infatuated with the youngest Uchiha, but he wouldn't give them the time of day, let alone entertain the idea of dating them. After years of rejection, one would think they'd give up, but both still entertained ideas of being the one to catch his attention.

Sasuke wasn't very social in the best of circumstances. In fact, most of the time he was downright arrogant and rude to those around him, claiming everyone one around him was an idiot and not worth his time. He tolerated his friends, having no qualms when it came to telling someone to 'fuck off' - politely or not. In fact, the only person he truly tolerated in any situation was Naruto. The blond student could be screaming his head off and Sasuke would only smirk contentedly.

"Sasuke," Naruto murmured sadly, staring into the bottom of his glass. "Don't get me wrong, I love Itachi. He's like a brother to me, but tonight he went too far. He loves to torture Sasuke. I suppose it's his job, big brother and all, but it was our night. Sasuke and I haven't seen each other in over a month. A month!" he exclaimed again for effect, throwing his hands up in the air. "We've both been super busy with finals and mergers and what not. We'd planned this out to perfectly match our schedules when his deal finally went through, and I finished exams." He took a large swig of the drink in front of him. "I miss him." The blonds shoulders slumped, and his usual smile fell.

The group saw the unshed tears glittering in the bright azure eyes. Even a blind man could clearly see that the blond man was more depressed than he was letting on.

"I'm going to get another drink," claimed Kiba, before chugging the last of his beer. "Want one Naruto?"

"Huh? Yeah, sure."

"Cheer up Naruto," Kiba said climbing over Shikamaru. "That bastard isn't worth you ruining your night." He ground down on his roommates lap with a wink, then scrambled off and headed to the bar before anyone could notice.

Letting out a shaky breath, Shikamaru muttered to himself about the troublesome mutt. He didn't bother moving as he was sneakily molested, and to most this would look as though the Nara was just being lazy, as usual, but it was actually a sneaky tactic. When the Inuzuka returned, he would be forced to climb back over the Nara, hopefully repeating his earlier action. Across the table, Shikamaru saw Chouji shoot him a knowing smirk before hiding behind his beer. Only the chubby brunet knew of his secret crush on his wild roommate.

When Kiba returned, he repeated his previous action much to the raven haired students' delight. This time a low moan of pleasure was coaxed from his roommate before he took his seat, passing a new drink to his other roommate.

The night wore on, and half an hour was spent in vain trying to cheer up the miserable Uzumaki, but not even the promise of the blonds' favourite food drew him out of his funk. They tried Sasuke bashing, which only served to upset the blond more. They tried playing a drinking game, but the increased buzz only caused the tan blond man to become more emotional. Desperate to make Naruto's night enjoyable, and salvage the evening, Sai finally made a suggestion.

"Hey dickless," the pale artist said, a fake smile plastered across his face. "Why don't you just get completely hammered? I read once that people drink to forget. Maybe that's what you need… to forget Sasuke tonight. If you're drunk, you won't think about it, and you'll act like the moron you are, and have a good time instead of dragging us all down with you."

A hand smacked the dark haired artist upside the head. "Way to be sensitive Sai," Ino scolded.

"That doesn't seem like a good idea," Shikamaru added, trying to be the voice of reason. More often than not, it was his job, not that any of them listened. "Have you even eaten anything Naruto?"

Scratching his stubbled chin, Naruto thought back over the course of the day. He'd been in a good mood in the morning until Sasuke had cancelled. Everything seemed to have gone downhill from there, including his appetite. "Well, not since I ate an early lunch, but I'll be fine. I have an amazing tolerance," the blond tried to justify.

"Come on Shikamaru," Kiba butted in. "He's a big boy, he can take care of himself."

"I just don't want to deal with Uchiha if something happens to him," the raven muttered. "Think about it Naruto, would he want you to do this?"

Naruto frowned. "He'd want me to have a good time without him," the Uzumaki defended.

Despite Shikamaru's words of caution, five shots were ordered and downed by the all too willing Naruto. Unfortunately, that's the last he remembered of the evening.

11:42 Saturday Morning

Naruto woke up to the sun streaming through his window. He sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, his head only mildly throbbing from the bright light of late morning. He was one of the lucky few that was never all that bothered with a hangover. In fact, he'd never had a debilitating hangover once in his twenty one years of life.

With a large satisfying stretch, he surveyed his room, trying to remember how he had ended up home last night, and in his own bed to boot. The couch was usually where he woke up after a long night. Sadly, he drew a blank, and not for the first time, was furious with himself for not listening to his logical roommate. The last memory he could recall was taking the five shots Sai had offered.

He noticed a small orange ball of fur curled up at the end of his bed. His eyes widened in surprise upon realizing the ball of fluff was breathing. Leaning forward, he discovered the mysterious animal was a kitten, and a cute one at that. It purred contentedly, nuzzling his hand as he scratched the fluff ball behind the ears.

Naruto chuckled with delight. He'd always wanted a kitten, but he wasn't sure where the little munchkin had come from. "You're such a little cutie," Naruto cooed. "Where did you come from, eh?" He grinned, thinking maybe the night before wasn't all bad.

Suddenly, a lump on the right side of his bed moaned, and shifted. Naruto froze in shock. Mystery number two had just presented itself.

Eyes wide, heart pounding, Naruto jumped from the bed and fled his room, leaving the purring kitten blinking sleepily behind him. Whatever happened last night that he didn't remember, but apparently it ended with him bringing someone home, and that was a first. Naruto had never picked someone up at a bar before.

He tore down the hall of the three bedroom apartment, skidding into the living room to find the small group of his friends from the night before sitting around with coffee with pancakes. Tradition was, after a night of drinking everyone came over for Kiba's famous chocolate chip pancakes, even those who hadn't gone out.

"What the hell happened last night?" he cried hoarsely, hands flying up to his hair, fingers tangling tightly in the messy blond spikes. "I don't remember anything. How did I even get home?" He looked frantically around the room, his eyes clearly telling everyone present he was panicking.

"We can answer that," Ino and Sakura chimed from the love seat across from him.

"Sit down Naruto," Kiba practically commanded, worried his friend was going to begin hyperventilating any minute.

"I told you it was a bad idea," Shikamaru gloated from his place lying on the couch, his head in Kiba's lap.

Sai blinked in confusion, unable to wrap his head around the Uzumaki's panic. Naruto had gotten exactly what he'd wanted. "But it served its purpose," Sai stated. "He stopped being a whiny, dickless bitch over Sasuke ditching him and had fun." He ducked the remote flying at his head.

Moving over to the couch that his two roommates were occupying, Naruto picked up Shikamaru's legs and sunk into the couch, dropping the lazy man's legs across his lap. "Great, I'd love for you to fill in the blanks, because the last thing I remember was everyone cheering as I did five shots, then nothing."

"Right, well, after the shots..." Ino paused, looking at her best friend for help.

"Well, you kind of went crazy Naruto," the pinkette finished for her.

"Crazy?" the blond repeated in confusion. "Crazy how?"

Well, what do you think? Should I continue?

Feel free to let me know if there are any funny situations you want to see Naruto get into.
