Back to School

A/N: aaaand I'm here, updating again because you're so nice and I kinda like this story. And just for the record, after reading the reviews, I had to run around the apartment to calm down enough to start writing. I was all hyper, screaming something like ”they love me, THEY REALLY LOVE ME!!!” ...lucky my wife (roommate) wasn't home, she'd totally kick me out for being so annoying :D anyway, on to the replies!

spoon: nice screenname *nice guy pose* it screams of youthfulness! And thank you for taking the time out to review, it is appreciated :)

sadistickiss: ah, good old leg-humpage. I had to come up with something that Sasuke would actually tell Karin to do :D thank you for your kind words, and I will update soon!! xD

Tokyo-Princess: ...well, you don't HAVE to say it... *blush* but thank you for saying it anyway! ^^ I'm feeling the beginnings of a serious god-complex with you praising me like that xD so, if I start throwing out commands like ”REVIEW MY STORY AND LIKE IT!” then you might wanna... tell me or something... :D and if you're in love with Shika, I must continue keeping him in there! *turns around* ”sorry Shika, you can't leave yet, I need you.” ”...too troublesome...” and, why yes, I do enjoy writing this and I love the fact that someone loves reading it as much :D

Kurai Kisu: *fufufu* come now, I know you like it ;P and don't start writing a sasunaru just because I whined about it! It's better if you write things you want to :D and I promise I'll read U.K.E. (already read some of it xD ) as soon as I have time. And I love them too! *gazes to the distance* and one day, I shall have them, in my bed, doing unimaginable things to each other... ...right! Thanks for reviewing again!!! ^^

SharinganEyes: ah, new blood! ...I mean, a new reviewer! I'm not in any way interested in your blood! ...unless you want me to... *krhm* sorry, I'm feeling crack-ish :D and not to worry, Naruto's going to get back at Sasuke at some point... probably. Thanks for reviewing! ^^

tash1021: AAAAAHHHH I will I will! XP

ShikaChouFan4Life: yeeeeesh, another cliffie. Excellent... and no, I'm not overly enjoying tormenting Shika, he just happens to be that sort of person that would have those things happen to him. ...who am I kidding, yes, I do enjoy making him suffer! But he's not alone, oh no, there's a lot of character I like to torment!!! as you will probably find out sooner or later xD and, believe it or not, my roommate started watching reruns of McGyver when I was writing the part with Naruto sneaking around :D I lol'd and had to explain her why I was laughing. ...she didn't get it. I was sad. But then it passed and I was laughing again! Talk about being random. Tack så mycket! (thank you in swedish)

Noir: Ah, yes. Cliff hanger. That's what I do best. And nice to see you again! ...well, not see but you know what I'm talking about. And you shall have the next chapter, just scroll down, it's all there ^^ and thanks!

mina: oh, we all love a naughty Sasuke. Can't think of anything better right now :D and I'm pretty sure that even if he wanted to stop the molesting happening, sasuke would have none of it. And we all know that he likes it xD

The ringing of the Konoha academy's bell. For the students it was a signal that the class was about to start, and for the teachers it was a call to get up from the couch and go force some new information to the small heads of the next generation of Konoha shinobi.

For one raven, the loud sound meant that the blond underneath him stopped kissing back.

Naruto stared at the boy on top of him with wide eyes, unable to move. Their mouths were still glued together, Naruto's arms around the pale neck keeping them close, unwilling to let go. He slowly moved his gaze from the black eyes to regard their shirtless bodies pressed against each other and, to his horror, he realized that Sasuke's hands were on the button of his orange trousers. Unknown to the two teens, they shared a thought, (if it'd lasted just five more minutes...)

Snapping out of his stupor, Naruto snatched his arms away. ”Mmhmph!”

Sasuke blinked and put his hands on both sides of the blond, pushing himself up and separating their mouths, making a small 'smack' sound. He stayed there, hovering over Naruto, and tried to think of something to say. Honestly, it wasn't like the Uchiha to be left speechless.

Luckily he didn't have to rack his brain any longer, for Naruto pushed him off and nearly jumped off the table, quickly gathering his discarded clothes and running out of the room.

Sasuke scowled, listening to the receding footsteps and sliding down to stand on the floor too, easily finding his blue t-shirt. He was trying to straighten it out before pulling it over his head, but he froze when he heard the hurried steps coming back.

The Uchiha had just enough time to pull the shirt on before Naruto's nearly-dressed figure slid to a stop in the middle of the doorframe. The blond was breathing heavily and looking like he had rolled around somewhere, his hair tussled and clothes all wrinkled up.

After catching his breath, Naruto glared at the raven and pointed his finger at him accusingly. ”Bastard, don't do that again!” Then he nodded, seemingly happy for getting his message delivered, and left again, walking briskly towards the doors. Now he really needed to talk with Shikamaru.

Sasuke looked at the spot his teammate had just been standing on and felt a smile tug at the left corner of his mouth, which he immediately suppressed, smirking instead.

”Sure, dobe.”

Lee finished his stretches and readied his fighting stance. ”Now, Neji-sama, we shall spar! And if I'm unable to defeat you, I will-” he was interrupted as a flash of orange intruded his line of sight.

”Naruto-kun!” Naruto did a full turn while still in the air and left long tracks on the ground where he halted and spurted back to his two friends.

”Lee! Sorry I didn't see you there, I was busy looking for Shikamaru. You've seen him?”

Lee's eyes widened a bit, his mind replaying the awful 'crack' and the scream of agony that soon followed. There was a visible shiver traveling up his spine. ”Shikamaru-kun is in the medical wing.”

Naruto blinked, confused. ”I thought he didn't have any missions.” He sat down, getting comfortable on the grass, motioning for Lee to join him. ”What happened?”

Lee followed suit, sitting down opposite of his friend. ”I wish not to speak of it.”

Naruto opened his mouth, about to inquire more of the strangeness, but the slight look of terror on the green-spandex covered ninja's face stopped him, so he merely shrugged. ”Anyway, I just needed his help.”

Lee perked up at this, he was always willing to help his friends. ”I offer my youthful assistance!” He struck the good guy pose, his bright white teeth reflecting the sunlight straight to Naruto's eyes.

”I appreciate the offer, but this is one of those things that's difficult to solve.” The blond tried to be as tactful as he could, and was immensely pleased in himself as Lee nodded in understandment. This was followed by a long silence as the two hardworking shinobi twisted and turned their minds, thinking of a equal match to Shikamaru's brain power.

Neji, who was getting annoyed for being so rudely ignored by the both of them, coughed, bringing the attention to him. Lee's eyes brightened up, and he grabbed Naruto's shoulder, effectively catching the blond's attention. ”Neji-sama is smart too! Maybe he will be able to solve your problem!”

Naruto grimaced and, after throwing a nervous glance in Neji's direction, motioned for Lee to come closer. ”Umm, Lee,” he whispered ”this is sort of personal, I don't want to tell about it to... Well, Neji.”

Neji resisted the urge to roll his eyes (why should I even bother), and walked closer to the two, his hands tightly crossed over his chest. ”Naruto-kun, I promise not to speak of it to anyone, you can trust me.”

Naruto seemed hesitant at first, but gave in because he really needed the help. So, he quickly briefed them on what had happened between him and Sasuke and about the mind control and what Shikamaru had thought about it.

When he finished, Lee jumped to his feet, striking his pose. ”The power of youthful love has fallen upon us!”

Naruto rubbed the back of his neck and grinned awkwardly. ”Lee, the fact that me and Sasuke had.. well, sex, doesn't mean we're together.” then he quickly added ”Or love each other!”

Lee's big brows furrowed in question and then his jaw dropped in shock. ”Not in a relationship?! This is unheard of!” He pointed at Naruto, criticizing the blond boy. ”You are taking advantage of the frail, pained soul of the Uchiha, who's just yearning to be loved!”

Naruto jumped to his feet too, coming face to face with his accuser. ”Well FIRST OF ALL-”

”Lee.” The two of them exchanged a glare before turning their heads to show Neji they're listening. Neji had to suppress a chuckle, he really loved having someone's undivited attention. He also loved pointing out to people that they were wrong. ”If you had backed away a bit to see the whole picture, you would see that it's the other way around. Naruto is clearly the uke.”

Naruto blushed, turning red to the roots of his hair. ”AM NOT!” He was quickly silenced with a stern look from Neji. The blond sat down, grunting bitterly, and made his best to avoid the pale eyes.

Lee was, once again, confused. ”Eternal rival, what is an uke?”

Neji swallowed with much difficulty, this is one conversation he did NOT want to have with Rock Lee. He coughed. ”Why don't you go ask Gai-sensei?”

”YOSH!” With that, Lee was gone and Neji already knew that Naruto was running towards the medical center. He was left alone, which should have made him happy, but thanks to serious socialization from his other teammates, he had lost his bittersweet edge and now craved for some human contact. (I'll go find Tenten.)

Shikamaru was sitting on a hospital bed, his left wrist in a cast. He was trying to pull his shirt back on but was finding it extremely difficult, and he didn't have the energy to really put his mind to it.

The door to his room slid open and in barged Naruto. ”Shikamaru! Finally I found you!” He ran to the brunet and hopped on the bed. He adjusted himself so that he was sitting next to the annoyed Nara. ”Geez, what happened to you?”

Shikamaru looked at Naruto wearily, he was too tired to be handling the blond right now. ”My wrist is broken.” He said sullenly, finally getting the shirt on properly.

Naruto rolled his eyes. ”Well duh, I can see that. But how did it happen?”

Shikamaru gave him a calculating look before hopping off the bed and walking towards the door. ”Let's just call it a second warning.” He was about to reach for the knob when the door slid open, with Chouji standing behind it. ”Where do you think you're going?”

Shikamaru exchanged a look with him and turned around, walking back to the bed. ”Too troublesome...”

Chouji walked over to the armchair and sat down as Shikamaru flopped back down on the bed. ”Hi Naruto-kun, has anything new happened with Sasuke?”

Naruto looked up from Shikamaru and nodded gravely to Chouji, who had just made himself comfortable and was opening a bag of chips, eagerly waiting for the blond to begin.

”You see, I was looking for Sasuke so I could ask him what the heck he was trying to pull, but then I bumped into him, literally, and before I could get a sentence out of my mouth, my mind was blank again!” Naruto threw his arms into the air in desperation. ”I don't know what to do anymore!”

Chouji's eyes widened and he stuffed more chips to his mouth, while Shika groaned and hit his head to the pillow. ”Too damn troublesome.” He then sat up, wanting to get this over and done with, so he would finally be left alone.

”Naruto, next time this happens, keep your mind concentrated on something else, like ramen.”

Naruto's mouth watered at the ramen, but then he looked at the brunet with suspicion . ”Why would that do anything?”

Shikamaru sighed, choosing his words carefully. ”It seems to me that all this is possible because both parties are agreeable.” Naruto blinked once, twice, and then voiced his confusement, ”huh?”

Shikamaru rubbed the bridge of his nose, he was getting a migrane. Chouji opened his mouth after swallowing the food there. ”He means that you two fool around because you both want to fool around.” He then checked his best friend, who nodded. ”So, you just have to not-want it, or then TALK with him, which is exactly what you should have done in the first place.”

Shikamaru then kicked the blond off his bed, shoving him towards the door. ”And next time go to someone else!”

Before Naruto realized what he had just been told, he had already automatically walked outside.

”I DO NOT LIKE HIM!”
