Ashiteru

A Sasuke x Naruto fanfic

With a bit of ItaDei

Chapter Two: Notice Me

 

 

 

I'm making my way to the rooftop. Call it “My One Place of Comfort” or whatever.

 

I need to cool down.

See? This is what you do to me.

 

I push open the door. A gust of wind hits me in the face. I step out. Two people are already there.

 

“Hey Sasuke.”

 

I smirk. “Hey Itachi. Hey Deidara.”

 

Those two. My brother and his boyfriend. I have to admit. They make a cute couple.

 

I make my way to a cardboard box that was probably tossed there by a janitor. Deidara looks at me.

 

“Otouto-kun. You look gloomier than usual, un.”

 

I roll my eyes.

“Hello? I'm always this way. That's why they call me emo.”

 

Itachi snorts. I glare at him. He just smirks back at me. Then he starts, “Sasuke, you're in a bad mood too. What, did you see Naruto?”

 

I turn bright red. I know it. I hate it. I hate that I'm so blatantly obvious.

 

Deidara grins. “Ohhh, Otouto-kun, that's so cute!”

Itachi sniggers again. I groan.

 

“But I didn't know that you weren't straight.” Deidara says, tilting his head. I scoff.

 

“It's not something you can tell everyone. Not at this school.” I turn my eyes on them. “That's why you guys keep it a secret, right?”

 

Deidara grins. But he's nervous. It's easy to see. Here at this school, only straight relationships are accepted. The whole school is homophobic, ya know. If you're not straight; you get jumped. Beat up. They'll make you sorry like that.

 

That's why Itachi and Deidara play it cool. But Deidara is so girly. It's amazing that no one's figured it out. Truly amazing.

 

Deidara throws me a box. I catch it. I look inside. It's filled with those little star-shaped candies. I look up and frown. “You know I don't like sweets.”

 

Deidara frowns mockingly back at me. “Yeahhh, but I don't want them un. And Itachi doesn't want them either un. So you're stuck with it.”

 

I groan again. And I stuff the candies in my bag. I'll throw them out later.

 

I hear the bell ringing. Itachi sighs and pulls on his bag. Deidara checks his image in a mirror. We head downstairs just as the rest of the school is leaving the lunchroom.

 

Itachi gives Deidara a quick kiss on the cheek before he goes off in another direction. Deidara blushes. Then he says `Bye' to me too as he goes off. I shrug. I make my way to English Language.

 

I love English Language Class. Really. I do. No. The class isn't especially fun or anything. It's the most boring subject I have ever studied. I'm not especially good at it either. I get the same scores in that class as I do the others. I get the grades I need. I do the things I need to do.

 

But still. It's predictable of me. But you are in that class. Sitting in the first row. On the third day of school, the teacher told you to sit there. He said he wanted to keep an eye on you. Cuz you talked during class. And you didn't do your homework. You failed the first test.

 

So. Like in Lunch, I'm watching you from the back.

 

I make it to my seat and take out my notebook.

 

The bell rings. I flip to a clean page. And I take out a pen. I prop my arm up and rest my head on it.

 

Where are you? Class has started and you're not even here. Sensei's not here either.

 

Kids are talking. Chatting.

 

I'm not.

 

I'm waiting for you to bust through that door.

 

Sensei comes in. He's so weird. Who wears a mask that covers most of his face? He's perverted too. Reads “Make Out Paradise” all day.

 

We stand up and bow to him. He doesn't care. He's taking attendance. His lone eye travels over the class. The other is underneath an eyepatch.

 

He clicks his tongue.

 

“Anyone see Naruto?”

 

I'm a little worried now. You're not here.

 

As if on cue, you suddenly slam open the door. Sensei's eyeing you. You grin nervously and rub the back of your head. Our classmates are snickering.

 

“Naruto. You're late. Again.”

 

You laugh a little. “Hey…I got lost on the way here!! And besides, my locker was jammed and it took me a long time to open it.”

 

Sensei sighs.

 

“Naruto…I'd like to speak to you outside.”

 

Your grin slides off your face real fast. You look down as you follow Sensei out of the class room.

 

As soon as the door closes, the class breaks out in giggles. Then they start chatting with each other again.

 

I look down at my notebook. I doodle on the corner.

 

After a few minutes, you and sensei come back inside. I look up. You look pissed.

 

“Sasuke, can I see you outside with Naruto?”

 

Something cold falls into the pit of my stomach. But I'm pushing in my chair and making my way down anyways.

 

We walk outside with sensei.

 

“I'd like you to start tutoring Naruto in English.”

 

I don't say anything. I sneak a glance at you. You're staring off in another direction. You still look pissed.

 

“Do you mind? You're the best student in the class. Just a couple of days after school would be enough of a help. You'll also get extra credit if you do.”

 

Somehow, the way he says it doesn't sound like I have a choice at all.

 

I look at sensei. He's staring back at me. I nod a little.

 

“Great. How does today after school sound? You can use my classroom.”

 

I just nod again. I look up at you. You're looking back at me. You frown.

 

Sensei walks back into the classroom. He's calming the other students down.

 

You sigh.

 

“So…Guess I'll see you later then.”

 

 

 

 

0000000000000
