Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Simple as cake.
I'm sorry I didn't update yesterday or the day before, I was at a friend's house! Megan, you know who you are! :grin: And I was brushing up on my german, oh... and watching shota :nervous laugh:
"J-Jiraiya," Sasuke stuttered. He hadn't expected him to come back today.
The older man looked up and raised an eyebrow at the scene of Sasuke in bed with another boy. He already knew that the raven was gay, so he had no problem with it. The only thing that was bothering him was the fact that they were both in his bed. His bed.
"I can explain!" Naruto screamed, falling off the mattress.
"You two..." Jiraiya started with a frown, "didn't have sex on my bed, did you?"
"No," Sasuke said simply, cutting off any of Naruto's replies.
Relieved, Jiraiya crossed his arms, "You know, Sasuke, bringing little boys into my room wasn't part of our deal."
"He came in to check on me," Sasuke bowed, wincing at the pain in his neck and jaw, "please don't punish him. He was only worried."
He's such a goody goody, Naruto thought, amused. He got up and glanced at Jiraiya, noting that the man looked around fifty.
"Worried, huh? No one's ever been worried about you except for Kakashi," Jiraiya walked over to the blond and studied him, black eyes calculating, "is he your boyfriend?"
Sasuke held back an uncharacteristic blush and scoffed, "That dobe? No way."
Naruto was sort of pissed at that statement. They had kissed and he had even told Sasuke that he liked him! How could the bastard say something like that?.! Of course... it's not like he wanted to be Sasuke's boyfriend...
Jiraiya noticed the blond's frown and smirked, "I think you made him angry,"
The raven looked over at the fuming Naruto and smirked as well, "What's wrong? Jealous?"
"No! Don't flatter yourself, Teme!"
The hermit rubbed his ears at Naruto's outburst and cleared his throat to get their attention, suddenly remembering something "Sasuke, I'd like to talk to you for a second. Get rid of the kid and meet me back in my tea room, ok?" he went past the blond and entered a door in the back of the room.
Sasuke nodded and slid out of bed, ignoring the aching of his muscles and the cracking of his bones.
"Who is that geezer calling a kid?.! I'm sixteen!" Naruto 'hmphed' and crossed his arms, a cute pout in place.
"Dobe, quit acting stupid," he tightened his yukata and opened a drawer in the nightstand beside the bed, pulling out a roll of bandages and wrapping long strips around his wrists and palms.
Naruto grabbed the bandages and helped, making sure they weren't too tight and not too loose, "Does this always happen when you have fits? You know, cutting your hands and stuff?"
"What? Do you think I'm suicidal or something?" the raven smirked and turned Naruto around, shoving him towards the door, "believe me, I'm not. I have things I need to repent for, as you know," he saw the blond's eyes darken at the word "repent", but ignored it, "so no suicide until afterwards."
Naruto glared at him.
"Relax, Dobe, it was a joke."
"Your humor sucks," the blond growled as he was shoved out into the sitting room, "Hey!"
"I have to speak with Jiraiya, remember? Go back to..." he glared at the floor, "Sai's room before Kakashi finds out you're missing."
Naruto gave Sasuke a toothy grin,"Now who's jealous? Worried that Sai will seduce me and make me his?"
"Hn, as if," Sasuke snorted.
"You know, it's ok if you're jealous," Naruto said in his best Dr. Phil voice, "we all feel that way at some point in our lives. Sa--" he was cut off when Sasuke pulled an apple out of the fruit bowl by the door, and shoved it in his mouth, "Mhhnn! Nghhnnn!!"
"Go away, Dobe. One of the workers might spot you," Sasuke smirked.
Naruto pulled the apple out of his mouth and laughed, "Yeah, whatever, I'm going," he walked over to the first hallway and opened the door, turning back to give Sasuke a half smile, half grin, "but remember, Teme," the grin disappeared and only a smile was left, "you got to me first."
Sasuke watched Naruto go into the hall, his eyes slightly wide. It was amazing how those five words could affect him... They lightened his mood, his mind... and his heart... The raven scowled and hit himself on the chest, trying to get rid of the fluttering feeling. Uchiha Sasuke's heart did not flutter.

Jiraiya sat by his small tea table, nodding to Sasuke as the raven sat across from him. He noted the small smile on the other's face and snorted.
"It seems like you've fallen in love."
Sasuke scowled and glared at the hermit, pouring himself a cup of tea, "I don't love anyone. I just like him,"
"Che, whatever you say," Jiraiya grinned, "but you like Kakashi as well and you don't smile around him," he snickered and waved his free hand dismissingly, "but let's drop the subject. Now, on to what I wanted to speak with you about. While I was in Korea, I saw that some pleasure houses let their hosts go to school..."
Sasuke's face remained impassive, but his obsidian eyes radiated hope. He had always wanted to go back to school. Getting schooled by Hinata wasn't good enough for him. He wanted to be normal again, to be surrounded by people who would laugh and make stupid jokes about their teachers. People like Naruto.
"School?"
"I think it's a good idea, don't you? I'm sure it'll be a lot better than being stuck here 24/7 learning from a stuttering little girl," Jiraiya chuckled roughly, "not to mention, more fun. And you'll be able to spend time with kids your own age. I don't think Gaara, Neji, and Sai are enough."
The raven took a slow sip of his tea and looked out the window, his chest tightening.
Freedom...

Kakashi finished stuffing the notebooks into the thin school bag, sighing at the thought of his little Sasuke going off to school. He knew the teen used to go when he was smaller, but now he was going to highschool. It was a lot different than elementary.
"And you call me a worry wart?" Iruka teased while handing a customer his bill, "Sasuke's a big boy now, Kakashi, he'll be fine. It's not like he's going to go off to a different country."
"I know..." he looked up and spotted said raven heading closer to them, his attire consisting of black pants, a white shirt, and a red tie.
"Ohayo," Sasuke said in a low voice.
"Ohayo!" Iruka chimed back.
"You don't sound very excited, Sasuke," Kakashi joked while handing the boy his school bag, "I'm guessing you're not too fond of waking up early?
Sasuke glared tiredly and stifled a yawn. He heard a few doors open behind him and turned, seeing Neji, Gaara, and Sai wearing the same uniform, Oh wonderful.
"Uchiha," all three of them greeted in unison, making Kakashi snort in amusement.
"Hn," Sasuke replied.
"I bet you all can't wait to go to school," Iruka said nicely, "especially you, Gaara. You've always wanted to go, right?" he smiled when the red-head nodded.
"Well, you four better get going!" Kakashi crooned, hiding his slight worry. Really, Hatake Kakashi was not a worry wart. That role was already taken by his Dolphin-chan, "remember to eat healthy foods! And Sai, don't molest the younger boys; Gaara, don't threaten anyone; Neji, please promise not to be too rude; and Sasuke, just... just don't beat up your fangirls, ok?"
"They're going to be there? I thought they went to private schools?.!"
"No, not those fangirls, Sasuke," Iruka piped in, "we're just assuming that you'll be fawned over by new girls, and Kakashi doesn't want you to get violent against them."
"Che, right," My first day in school and I'll have horny women swarming me. Aren't I lucky? his inner voice asked sarcastically.

Naruto was bored. Totally and utterly bored.
"So we can't go out of class because we're getting some new students?" Ino whined while fixing her hair, "I promised Ten Ten I'd go with her to Asuma-sensei's class! Now she's going to think I ditched!"
"Forget about you, what about me?" Kiba sighed in annoyance, "I told Shino I'd..." he blushed slightly and frowned, "meet him in the courtyard before first block."
"How cute," Ino quipped, completely forgetting about her Ten Ten crisis, "it seems like not even a week ago, you and Shino were just best friends. And now," fangirl squeel, "you guys play tonsil hockey behind the fountain in the courtyard!"
Kiba blushed fiercely, "Y-you stalker!"
Shikamaru watched everything with partially open eyes, his mouth open, drool threatening to slide down his bottom lip. He snorted and yawned, lying his head on the table, "So troublesome..."
"Wait..." now Naruto wasn't so bored anymore, "you and Shino... are together now? When the hell did this happen?.! I didn't even know you liked guys!"
"Oh, that's right. We didn't tell you, did we?" Ino laughed nervously, "gomen, Naruto, we tried. It's just, you're always at work."
"And you never have your phone on," Kiba added.
Naruto pouted and slid down in his seat, being a host is ruining my social life! "So... when exactly did you two get together? And who "initiated" the relationship?"
"What a stupid question to ask, Naruto," Ino said loudly, "it was Shino, of course."
"Hey! You don't know that!" Kiba snapped in embarrassment.
"Ngh... it's obvious you're the sheep, Kiba..." Shikamaru commented lazily, his head still on the table.
Everyone in the room jumped when the classroom door slammed open, a figure in green bouncing in. All of the students groaned when they realized it was Gai-sensei, the gym teacher. The man was nice and all, but he was loud. Too loud. And youthful... heh.
"Good morning, youthful students! I have come to tell you dreadful news! It seems that your homeroom teacher has caught a bug and will be out for the remainder of the week! And since right now the school is not able to find a sub, Surutobi-sama has designated me to watch over this class for the time being!" Gai grinned a sparkly grin and went into his nice guy pose, flashing everyone a peace sign.
"Too loud..." Shikamaru grumbled.
"Gai-sensei!!"
Oh, Jesus Christ, no! Naruto cringed when Lee came flying down from the top row seats(1) and threw himself into Gai's arms, tears flowing down his cheeks as if he were a cartoon character. Che, yeah right. Who'd make an animated character like Lee?
"Lee!" Gai yelled back, crushing the younger boy against his chest.
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Naruto!" the blond raised his hand and grinned. Everyone looked at him and he pouted, "what? I thought it was the name game... jeez, you guys have no sense of humor," he put his hand down and crossed his arms.
"Now Lee, please take your seat, class shall begin!" Gai said heartily.
"Hai, Gai-sensei!"
"You're frickin' kidding me! This is homeroom, Sensei, we don't do work in here!" one of the students hollered.
"No one said anything about work, Ayase-kun! We will all do exercises!" Gai clapped his hands together and grinned, his pearly white teeth bright enough to blind.
When the new information settled, everyone began to groan and complain about how homeroom wasn't gym class unless it was in the gym, but they all became quiet when there was a steady knock on the door.
"Hm, it must be the new students. I guess our exercises will have to wait until tomorrow, class," Gai announced with a slight frown. He bounced over to the door and opened it, peeking out to meet two pairs of eyes. Obsidian and pale green.
"Do you think they'll be good looking?" Ino asked.
"Who said they were guys?" Naruto sighed and waited for the new students to walk in.
"It's intuition, Naruto," Ino said with a cheery smile.
"Class, I would like you all to give a youthful greeting to Uchiha Sasuke and..." he turned to look out the door and the class could hear a small, chilling voice, "Subaku no Gaara".
Naruto stiffened in his seat, N-no way... he looked up to see Sasuke gracefully enter the room, the school uniform complimenting his perfect body, perfect... I did not just say that... Following behind him was Gaara, the red-head wearing a more... decorative uniform. Naruto could describe the boy in one word. Emo.
Shikamaru winced when all of the girls broke out into fangirl mode, most of them squeeling and blushing, the rest of them just looking at the pretty boys in awe.
Sasuke and Gaara walked in front of the teacher's desk and stood there as if they were in a police line-up. That image made Naruto snicker, which caused both of the teens to look at him.
"Well, I didn't expect you to be here, Dobe," Sasuke purred sensually, obviously trying to annoy the blond, but somewhere in his tone revealed his surprise at having the same class with him.
"Same for you, Teme," Naruto gritted out, pretend to be pissed to hide your joy... stupid bastard, why did I have to like him of all people? You know what, I don't even like him, it's just hormones. Yep, just hormones.
"Y-you know him, Naruto?.!" Ino shrieked in disbelief, "how did an idiot like you befriend and god like him?.! D-do you trim his bushes or something?.!"
"No, Ino, I don't trim his bushes," Naruto growled, "we both work together."
"Ohhh!" she turned to Sasuke and giggled, "so you're that guy Naruto keeps babbling on about online!"
Sasuke smirked, "You've been talking about me?"
"N-no!" the blond blushed. He was almost shoved out of his chair when Lee leaped over him, immediately glomping the impassive Gaara.
"Gaara-san!"
"Lee, it's a surprise to see you here," the red-head said calmly, looking down at the smiling teen.
Everyone watched the odd couple in fascination.
"Same here! I'm guessing Jiraiya-san finally allowed every host to go to school? I bet you're really happy, Gaara-san, you've always dreamed of going to school," Lee gave Gaara a warm smile.
Gai saw the panda man(2) stare at his pupil lovingly and blinked, "Um, class, I think we should all settle down now! Uchiha-kun, Gaara-kun, please find an empty seat and make yourselves comfortable."
Ino gave her seat to Sasuke and moved to sit behind Kiba, whispering a "good luck" to Naruto as she passed him. She sat down and turned in her seat to see Lee dragging Gaara to the top row of seats, pulling out the insomniac's chair and flashing him a brilliant smile.
Gai was surprised when there was another knock on the door. He opened it and the guys started murmering to each other, basically because the girls were too busy blushing over the new additions to their class.
"Well, there seems to be another new student!" Gai announced loudly.
Naruto looked over at Sasuke with raised eyebrows. The raven just shrugged, "It's not Neji or Sai. They're in another class."
"Hello!" a high-pitched voice greeted.
Both Sasuke and Naruto stiffened.
Sakura stood by the door with a large smile plastered on her face, "I'm Haruno Sakura!" her emerald eyes were gleaming, "and I heard Sasuke-kun was starting here today!"
(1) the seating is exactly like the classrooms in the anime series
(2) I like calling Gaara the Panda Man :giant smile:
I'm sorry I didn't update yesterday or the day before, I was at a friend's house! Megan, you know who you are! :grin: And I was brushing up on my german, oh... and watching shota :nervous laugh:
