Happy Feelings Inside Me Vol. 1

By Lily (Kiba), Trina (Neji), and Vanessa (Naruto)

 

NEJI'S POV

I sat in my English class, quietly doing my work as the majority of the class talked and the laughed across the room, while our teacher, Mr. Maito, tried desperately to quiet them down. Today was not my day. I found out that I have a “B” in history. Sure, most people would think that's a good thing, but I am no like everyone else. Some people call me a genius or something else along those lines. And in history too… God this sucks. Only 1% and I would have an “A” in there too. I was actually asked to move up a grade earlier this year, but I turned it down because… of the guy sitting next to me right now. I looked up at him as he chattered away loudly to his friend, Kiba, who sat in front of me.

What is it about him that interests me so much? He's so obnoxious and annoying, yet I've never been able to get my mind off him. I don't think we've ever even talked before. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't even know I existed. Ah, well, that's okay. I've still got my smarts right?

I looked back down at my work just in time to prevent Naruto from catching me stare. A few minutes later, Mr. Maito was able to quiet the class down enough for him to talk.

“Okay class, pass up the assignment. I can see that you are done since you're all talking…” he stated with a light smirk still on his face even though you could tell he was pretty miffed at the class. There were immediate cries from the students, complaining about not having enough time to finish. Naruto's hand shot into the air and he began, asking his question before he was even called on.

“Hey Gai-sensei!”

“Naruto, please call me by my last name.”

“Oh, my bad, Anyway, can we watch a movie in this class? Like, related to what we're learning or something?”

“Dumbass! What kinda movie have you seen related to English?” Kiba butted in. In seconds, the class began to talk and yell in an uproar once more. I just sighed and went back to my worksheet.

 

NARUTO'S POV

“I'm not a Dumbass!” I yelled at Kiba, “there's Romeo and Juillet and then there's Julius Caesar and …umm… uhhh… yeah…”

Gai-sensei was trying to get the class to quiet down again so we could move onto the next assignment. I looked around the room and realized only Neji was doing his work. I wouldn't be surprised if I was the only one who knew his name. Most people didn't even know he exists… but I do. I lost count of how many hours I've spent thinking about him. Every second I'm not in the same room as him, I wonder what he's doing, where he's at, or who he's with. Even heaven would be hell without him. I mean I didn't even know I went that way, until someone accidentally pushed my lips against Saskue's lips…

I know Neji was asked to move up a grade but didn't. I wonder why, but I'm glade he stayed. Not that I'll ever have a chance with him. He probably hates me. I mean I'm so loud and some people say I'm annoying and he's… he's… just so him, but Iruka always said “You'll never know till you try…” so hey maybe I'll talk to him after class.

“Naruto!” Kiba yelled snapping out of my thoughts and back to reality. “You're staring again.”

“I can't help it. He's just so damn sexy!” I said. Kiba knew about my sexual preferences, after all he was my first bout friend… but that didn't work out…

“So what? Dumbass… If you keep staring like that, he's gonna get creeped out!” Kiba said as the bell rang and everyone flooded out the classroom.

“I'm gonna go talk to him,” I said walking away from Kiba and towards Neji. “Hi Neji,” I said when I was next to Neji.

 

NEJI'S POV

“Oh. My. God.” Were my thoughts at the moment. Naruto? Talking to me? I can feel the blush rising in my cheeks. God, I hope he doesn't notice. I pulled myself together so he wouldn't think I was weird, which he probably already did… Anyway, I pushed my thoughts and questions aside, but still looked down at the ground to hide my red face, letting my long hair fall on my cheeks.

“U-um, Hi…” I said in reply, almost whispering. How pitiful am I? I'm starting to sound like my cousin, Hinata, who can't even say a sentence without stuttering at least once. He probably thinks I'm some kind of shy, school-girl type guy or something. I felt myself blush even deeper. Fuck this is not good. Sure, I'm glad he acknowledges my existence, but why did he choose now to talk to me? Was he doing it to tease me? Or does he really want to be friends… or perhaps something more…?

 

NARUTO'S POV

“Awww… He's so cute!” I squealed in my head. He's so freakin cute when he's blushing! But why is he blushing? And the few times I've heard him talk he didn't stutter… so why is he now? OMG… maybe he knows I like him… and he's afraid that I might try and do something to him… wait there's no way in hell he can know I like him… I mean the whole school may know I'm gay but the only way you could tell I liked Neji is if you a) could read my mind or b) stalked me and watched me all the time. I have to stay calm! But what if he's gay… I felt a blush coming to my cheeks at the images I was getting in my head. Okay bad head! Out of my head you stupid images! “So… ummm… what class do you have next?” I asked him quietly. I don't think I ever spoke this quite before… but why am I suddenly so shy?

 

NEJI'S POV

“I-I… um…”damn it, get it together Neji! There was a moment of silence between the two of us, and I didn't even notice Naruto blushing till I looked up. My heart began beating, faster and faster not knowing what else to do, my head was spinning and without thinking, I kissed him. Just a bit longer than a peck on the lips, but it was a kiss none the less. After that, I ran, my face bright red. I didn't go to my next class, Geometry. Instead I ran straight for the main office. I asked the lady working there, Kurnai, if I could call home. About 15 minutes later, my uncle Hiashi came to pick me up.

As soon as I got home, I locked myself in my room and buried my head in my pillow. I didn't eat anything the rest of the day. I was too busy trying to calm myself down. Why did I do that? Why did I kiss him? I know that he is gay, but what if he isn't interested in me like I am in him? Ugh… someone please help me get through this. I didn't go to school the next day. How could I after that?

 

NARUTO'S POV (rewinding to kiss)

I watched Neji run down the hall… should I follow him… wait… I don't know where he's going… did that really just happen? Did Neji really just kiss me or is this just a dream. I pinched myself and didn't wake up. I walked slowly towards my next class but turned back around as the tardy bell rang. Shit… now I have to get a tardy pass. I finally walked in to my algebra class when it was half-over. “So nice of you to join us Naruto,” Kakashi-sensei said. I glanced in his direction as I sat down. I still can't believe Neji just kissed me… I mean, sure I was happy, but why did he do it… I'll talk to him next class since we have P.E. together. Shikamaru poked me from behind. “Dude what's wrong? You're always loud and annoying and never late but today you majorly late and annoying quiet,” he whispered.

“Nothing's wrong!” I yelled, “Okay! The only thing that happened was the guy I dream about 24/7 just kissed me! Okay nothings wrong!” I'm not sure why I snapped like that I just did.

When I got to P.E, I found out that Neji went home so I couldn't talk to him. I decided to act like I normally did. My loud annoying self. When Neji didn't come to school the next day, I decided to stop by his house on the way home. I got his address from his cousin, Hinata. As I pulled my car up to his house, I took a deep breath. Okay here goes nothing. I got out of the car and walked to the door. I took another deep breath and knocked on the door…

 

NEJI'S POV

I had been curled up on the couch wrapped in a blanket when I heard a knock at the door. I hadn't been able to sleep very well the night before, nor had I eaten anything since yesterday's lunch. I was shivering cold when I left the couch, even though I still had my blanket wrapped around me. It took me a second to gain my balance; a result of not eating or sleeping.

“Just a minute!” I called out to the door, expecting it to be Hiashi or Hinata coming to check on me. I gripped the blanket tighter around me and walked to the door, stumbling along the way, becoming dizzier as I went. When I opened the door and saw Naruto standing in front of me, I immediately flushed red… then all I could see was black.

 

NARUTO'S POV

I caught Neji as he toppled forward. “Neji?” I carried him inside and laid him on the couch. I felt his forehead and realized he was burning up. They always told me that the best way to get rid of a fever was to sweat it out. I looked around for some more blankets, not finding any in the room; I decided to explore the house. I found what I assumed to be Neji's bedroom. I saw blankets piled high on the bed and decided to bring him in here. I went back to the first room and began Neji and carried him back to the bedroom. Not knowing what else to do I climbed onto the bed next to him and pulled him into my arms. I pulled the blankets over us. My last thought before falling asleep was “God, he looks so cute when he's asleep”

 

NEJI'S POV

I woke up to find a warm body pushed against my back and strong arms wrapped around me. I squeezed in closer before opening my eyes and realizing it was, of all people, Naruto! I almost started to glow bright red again, until I realized he was asleep. I loved being cuddled against him, but… it was so damn hot! Gently prying him off me, I sat up and tossed the entire pile of blankets onto the floor, in the process revealing his and my own full bodies. He was wearing his school clothes while I was wearing dark blue pajama pants and a white tank-top which outlined the shape of my torso.

I noticed Naruto twitch in his sleep from the sudden loss of heat. Feeling myself get a little cold as well, I pulled back up one of the blankets I had tossed aside and covered both of us. I curled back up against Naruto's chest. Only this time I was facing him. Gods, he's so hot. And I felt so safe when I was with him. I buried my face into his shoulder, taking in a whiff of his soothing scent. I closed my eyes and made a decision with myself. I will not run away anymore!

 

NARUTO'S POV

I woke up to feel the heat of another body against mine. My first thought were what the fuck? I open my eyes looking down I say Neji and slowly remembered everything that had happened, from Neji kissing me, to him passing out, and to were we are now. I heard my stomach grumble and realized I hadn't eaten in about three hours. I climbed of out of the bed, after kissing Neji gently on the forehead. I wondered around his house until I found the kitchen. And in the kitchen I found the world's best food. RAMEN! As I made my ramen, my cell phone rang. “Hey, Kiba,” I said, seeing that it was him.

“Where the fuck are you?” he yelled at me. “I've tried to call you 15 other times!”

“Well… sorry I feel asleep. But I'm at Neji's right now making ramen.”

“Oh, so Neji's more important than your best friend, is he?”

“What are you talking about” I asked him, but then I remembered, “Oh…wait… I was supposed to go to your house after school…”

“Yeah, you were. But going to Neji's house and falling asleep was more important. And you more than likely already raped him.”

“What are you talking about?” I asked him with a scowl.

“Oh don't give me that shit. We both know about the pictures that you have in your head. And we both know that Neji's straight!” Kiba was yelling at me now, as loud as he could.

“Let me ask you this Kiba… how do you know he's straight?” I asked mad that Kiba couldn't understand what I was trying to say. I decided that there was no reason to talk to him anymore so I simply hung up on him, after quietly saying, “Even if he is straight, I still love him and wouldn't, I repeat wouldn't, rape him or hurt him…”

As I sat down to eat my ramen, my phone rang yet again. I looked at my cell phone and realized it was Iruka. I considered not answering it, but then realized he must be freaking out… I was supposed to be home an hour ago and he is me over-protective-adopted-dad. “Hey Iruka,” I said into the phone.

“Where have you been? I thought you were with Kiba so I didn't worry to much until Kiba calls and asked me if I knew where you were.”

“Calm down, Iruka. I'm at Neji's I went over there after school to take his homework to him because he wasn't at school,” I informed him. I felt bad for lying to him but I didn't want to tell him the truth… “But when I got here Neji answered the door and passed out so I stuck around to take car of him and ended up falling asleep.

“Fine,” he sighed, “When are you going to come home?”

“I don't know. Neji's asleep and I'm going to wait until he wakes up and make sure he's okay.”

“Fine, call me when you leave…”

“K.K. See you later,” I said, hanging up the phone.

I finished eating my ramen and washed the dishes. Sighing, I looked around and decided to wash the floor since I was so freakin bored. As I finished, I leaned against the wall to admire my herd work. My phone rang for the third time in the last hour. “I don't want to talk to you, you fucking asshole!” I yelled into the phone after seeing that it was Kiba. I then proceeded to throw my phone across the room. I slide down the wall until I was sitting on the ground. I buried my face in my hands and began to cry. Today was not a good day… First, I get in trouble for not paying attention in class because I was worried about Neji. Then the one I love passes out when I get to his house. Then I get in a fight with my best friend… and then I find out I worried my adopted father who done so much for me…
