-SASUKE P.O.V-


It has been about two months, since Naruto and I became friends; actually he’s already my best friend now. He seems to take pride in the fact that he was my first friend…well in high school anyways. Although he still holds a grudge against me for making him kiss Sakura. It was so god damn hilarious! She followed him everywhere, and get this! She bargained with the principal, when she tried to follow him into the bathroom! She was SUPER clingy! Talk about scary! And that what’s-her-face? Ah, yes, Yamanaka Ino, was so jealous, she followed the two everywhere, asking Naruto, over and over with fake crocodile tears, if it was true!

She didn’t want to believe, so the stupid idiot had two girls follow him everywhere and not leave him alone.


Che, I almost feel bad for him.


Keyword: Almost.


Besides all the mishaps, everything has been great! After that little show I put on at the pep rally, with the fact that Naruto is my best friend, people…have, actually been treating me a LOT better, although not a lot, because most of them still think I’m a freak…well just one that could sing. But I don’t care anymore, a little is better than nothing right? All I need is Naruto anyways!


‘……’


‘Holy.Shit. I DID NOT JUST THINK THAT!’


Okay, change in subject.


Naruto has been. . .well,. . . he’s been acting strangely. As much as it hurts to think about…is, i-is he ashamed of me? Every god damn time I brush by him, or touch him in ANY way, he jerks his whole entire body away as if he was scorched! If that’s not enough proof, how about when I ask to hang out with him, he just makes some lame excuse, and then leaves quickly. What the hell?!? ‘I don’t believe in label’s’ my ass!


I was interrupted in my line of thought, when a knock on my door and the opening of it revealed my mom. “Sasuke, sweetie? Are you going to come to the beach with us?” mom asked. I had been sulking in my room for three hours, and it’s getting to me.


The beach? Why the hell not. It might. . .it might take my mind off things for awhile.


“S-sure, just give me a sec to get ready, is that alright?” I replied as I stood up from where I was perched on the floor, back against my bed, watching t.v. “And if you could, can you tell Itachi, if he tries anything again like last time, I will personally see to it, that his fan girls jump him in the streets and rape him.”


Mikoto just stared, a small line of sweat was running along the right side of her face


Then shrugged.


“Alright than dear, hurry up ok? There’s a surprise for you down stairs.” She said, with a small smile, as she walked out the door.


“Alright, mom.” I replied, although she was already gone.


-NORMAL P.O.V.-


With all his things packed and read, he changed into blue beach shorts, that fit snugly to his hips, showing off his body. As much as Sasuke hated to admit it, it made him look more feminine than he would have liked. Exiting the room , he made his way downstairs while thinking, ’A surprise? …for me?’


When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he turned and headed towards the living room.


“Hey, Sasu-chan! Long time no see! I’ve missed you!! Little cuz’!”


A strange, but slightly familiar voice yelled, as Sasuke walked into the living room. He stopped in his tracks as he stared and gaped at the person in front of him. Then slowly, his face split into a full out grin as he tackled the guy to the ground.


“Holy fuck, SAI?!? What the hell are you doin’ here, ass wipe?!?” Sasuke screamed, and started laughing as the two of them fell slowly to the ground.


“No way! No way! No way!!!” he yelled over and over again, all that while squeezing the life out of Sai, but Sai wasn’t complaining because he hugged back just as hard.


“I’ve missed you to little, Sasu-chan.” He said.


Sasuke growled slightly, and said, “I told you not to call me that!” With that the two were rolling around on the floor, laughing, and squealing.


Itachi growled quietly as he watched his little brother, and his cousin, while Fugaku and Mikoto smiled warmly. When Itachi’s not making Sasuke’s life hell, he’s rather overprotective, so the only thing Itachi could do was watch while in front of his parents, but he made a silent vow that he will make sure Sai was tortured. He NEVER liked Sai. After a little mishap, when Sai stayed over one night, he had walked in on Itachi in the shower, while Itachi screamed like a damsel in distress. The only thing he said though was, “You lack penis . . It is very small indeed.” With that Sai just walked out. What the fuck is with that!


“Oi, break up the reunion, I would like to go now.” Itachi said, with an edge to his voice, an impatient look threatening to take over his features.


“Fuck you Itachi! Sorry for being happy, to see my favorite cousin for the first time in two years! The beach isn’t going anywhere, you ass hole!” Sasuke yelled, as he detached himself from Sai, with a ferocious glare turned Itachi’s way.


“Hn…” the elder of the two replied, and with that he exited the house, and walked towards the car to wait.


“Sasuke, Itachi’s right, sweetie. We have to get going.” Milkoto said. “Let’s go.”


“Eh? What about dad? He was here a few moments ago.” asked Sasuke.


“Oh he’s not going. You know your father. Fun’s not his thing.”

“…yeah.” He said, a little disappointed, but that soon cleared, as Sai dragged him out the door.

-TIME SKIP-

Beach


“Gah!! Fuck! I forgot to put on my make-up!” Sasuke screamed, as he got out of the car, griping his head with a terrified look on his face.


“WHAT?” Sai screamed as well. “Holy shit, my adorable baby cousin has turned into a cross dresser while I was away!! I told you not to hang out with Itachi too much!!!“ At this, he earned a very hard punch in each arm, by both, equally pissed off brothers.


“No you idiot! It’s the freak, act kind of thing I put up in public! So for one: I don’t get mauled by girls, screaming about how cute I am.


Two: Try to not get raped by creepy, dirty, old, gay me.


And Three; I can find some who will look pass my scary look, and like me for. . .well me! ” he said, as he sat down on the blanket beside his mother, with the other two Uchiha’s in tow, and started to put on sun tan lotion, albeit, unbeknownst to him, to the normal passerby, he is practically putting on a show for them.”


“Uh…Ahem, Well if you continue putting lotion your body like that. . .” he gestured to the way Sasuke slowly, but smoothly spread the lotion over his chest, arms, and so forth, smearing the creamy substance over his skin sloppily, or teasingly, to the dirty minded and finished, “…than number two, in your list of ‘Why I wear make-up’ will most likely come true.” His eyes turned, and he looked at all the men, boys and girls alike, staring lustfully at Sasuke and some even had the gall to drool!


“Well, I don’t have to worry about that.” Sasuke said, earning questionable looks from Sai and Itachi. “After all, I’ve got my big, super strong cousin to protect me right?” Sasuke asked, with his bottom lip jutting out cutely, giving Sai a look that clearly said, ‘I’m so cute, don’t you want to fuck me till I can’t walk for days?’ Sai blushed heatedly as he gazed at Sasuke.


“Of course! I won’t let any old geezers touch my baby cousin!” he said triumphantly, as he grabbed Sasuke into a protective hug, and glared threateningly at all the men who were leering at Sasuke.


At this, Sai earned a murderous glare from Itachi, as he yelled, “I’M going to be the one who’s going to protect my baby brother, you penis loving freak!” and then he started pulling Sasuke from Sai’s grasp, he glomped his baby brother to his chest, as he continued glaring at Sai. Sai growled, as he spat out, “Who are you callin’ a penis lovin’ freak, you dumb ass. You’re just mad that mine’s bigger than yours, dick-less wonder! By the way, Sasuke asked ME to protect him! Not you!” Sasuke just stood their in his brothers arms, and blinked cutely.


Grabbing Sasuke’s other unoccupied arm, he started to pull him away, but Itachi had a firm grip, and then started the human tug-o-war.


Sasuke cringed, at the fact that he had two people screaming at each other, right next to his ears, and he was being pulled back and forth, then it happened.


His eyes rested on a particular blonde-haired boy, talking to a girl a little ways from where he was. He quickly noted that it was Naruto! His eyes lit up brightly at the thought of his best friend, forgetting the fact that he was still being tugged ruthlessly back and forth in between his brother and his cousin. He was about to call out, over to Naruto, to see what he was doing here, but his voice died in his throat, when said girl he saw kiss Naruto fully on his lips. He never saw when Naruto pushed the girl away roughly and she ran off crying, because he felt tears build up in his eyes, and his head drooped down, staring at the sand under his toes.


‘D-damn it! W-why, -hic- the f-fuck am I crying?!’ Sasuke mentally said, as he sniffed.


‘Maybe that’s the reason he’s been ditching you. He’s avoiding you because of that bitch. Isn’t she that girl who’s always talking about you? What if she said something? That’s why he’s disgusted with being your friend. ‘a voice inside his head replied, quickly noting at that it was himself talking to himself. Holy hell, he was going senile!



’Y-yeah…That makes sense. . .he avoided me b-because he didn’t want to be seen with me in front of his girlfriend!’ It hurt, to think that, that’s what happened, but it’s probably true. After all he was the school freak! ‘That sonuvabitch!! Fuck you than Naruto! If that’s the way it’s going to be, I wish I never met you!!’ He noticed the tugging had stopped, and he was immediately brought back to reality. He looked up to see two concerned and guilty faces peering down at him. “S-Sasuke? Why are you crying? Did we hurt you?!?! Oh god, I’m so sorry! Were we pulling too hard? I didn’t mean too! Did we hit you instead, by mistake?!? I’m so, so, so fuckin’ SORRY!” Sai wailed dramatically, as he rambled on and on, while Itachi roamed his eyes up and down his little brothers body, protectively, as he searched for any signs of injuries or bruises, that they may have caused, with an apologetic look.


“A-ahh! No, no, no! I wasn’t crying! I…I just got a little sand in my eye, that’s all!” he said quickly, furiously wiping his hands over his eyes, to erase any signs of tears.


’Gah! I’m such a girl!”


“You even look like a flat- chest’ed one.”


Great, the voice was back.


’Shut the hell up! Who asked you anyway?!’ he sniffed once more.


“And yet, now you’re talking to your self. What the fuck is wrong with you?”


‘God, you’re no help at all! Isn’t the voice inside normal peoples heads, suppose to make you feel better? You’re not making this god damn better at all!!’ he mentally cried out.


‘Uh…well, you’re not normal.’


‘Ahhhh!!!’


Sasuke stood up abruptly, and looked around the beach, ignoring the little voice in his head. He saw something in his peripheral vision, and turned to see a staged. It looked like a little talent show or something was on.


It couldn’t hurt…could it?


“Ummm. . Sai? Itachi??”


“Yes?” They replied instantaneously.


“See that stage over there?” he asked, while pointing towards the directions of the platform, he then continued, “Remember back then? The guitars, drums, and band and all? Why don’t we perform over there? We could play that song we wrote, ya know the one with Sai and I singing as a duet? It would really take my mind off things. They probably have everything set up anyways.” He paused, waiting for a reply. The other two look as though they were thinking back to the past, before they looked at each other, than back at him with a small smile. Well Sai smiled, anyways.


“Sure! Why not?” he answered.


“Hn,” Itachi said, with a small nod, crossing his arms over his chest, with a bored expression. But Sasuke, knew better.


Sasuke beamed at them, and said, well more like a scream, “Great!! Let’s go!” grabbing both of the elder boys wrist, Sasuke dragged them to where the stage was located.


“Whoa! Slow down, Sasuke! Where’s mom!?” Itachi asked. Sasuke looked down to where the blanket was, and where their mom should be tanning in the sun, but didn’t see her. He roamed over the crowd around him. and spotted her. “Right there! She’s already over there, where we’re headed, so let’s go!” His eyes caught sight of his mother watch a seemingly old man perform, and someone else also caught his eye.


Who else, other than, Uzumaki Naruto?


He was sitting closely to the back, where he was watching the old man on stage with a bored expression. Sasuke just shook him out of his thoughts. ‘That bastard could go die for all I care, j-just forget about it!’


-TIME SKIP-


At the stage


“Oi, Itachi, could you go and ask the manager, or whatever to see if we could go, please?” asked Sasuke, cutely when they arrived to where the crowd of people were. Itachi just gave a small nod, and went to do the task, while Sasuke and Sai made their way over to Mikoto.



“M-Mom! I thought you were sun tanning, or whatever.” Sasuke asked, as he squeezed his way through the thick crowd, with Sai in tow.”


“Oh, hi there, sweetie. Well when I saw this crowd of people, I couldn’t help but see what was going on! So I came to see what the commotion was all about, and well here I am!”


Then Itachi’s voice cut through the crowd. “ SASUKE! SAI! COME ON! HE SAID WE CAN GO ON RIGHT AFTER THIS GUY!”


Mikoto looked up, quirking her right eyebrow at her youngest son, and nephew. “Are you three going to perform? That’s great! Do your best honey!” Mikoto told her son, and gave the two boys in front of her, one, big, motherly hug. Then he squeezed himself through the mass of sweat, and heat, as he was crushed by the crowd to get back to his brother, with Sai flowing suit.


They were waiting for the old man to finish, when it was their turn. The three Uchiha’s made their way up onto the stage and into there positions, the crowd gaping up at the three beautiful, gorgeous men. With Itachi on drums, Sasuke the lead singer and guitarist, that left Sai with the bass. Now clad in there swimsuit glory, and shirtless, all three males began.


Sai started off with the first verse, as he closed his eyes, and sang his heart out.


I am what I am, I can't help myselfAnd if you don't like it, get with somebody else.


He thrust his right hand out, slowly, as if pushing away someone, as he deepened his voice.I'll never change my ways, It's not a phaseThis is how it is and this is how it's gonna stay.


Sasuke joined in, as he struck his guitar. Now both back to back, they thumped their feet to the rhythm of the song.


Because I am what I am, I know what I'm notI'm not the type of guy that doesn't know how good he's got it!And I won't back downWon't come around, saying that I changed cause; At the next line, they slowly slid down, and bent their knees, and drew out the word, ‘down’ as they sprang back up with new momentum.That's not how it's going down


And I know! Sasuke echoed Sai’s words with another, ‘I know, I know’Wherever I go I go, I goI know where I stand, I am what I amHey! Hey!I am what I am! Hey! Hey! Sasuke and Sai jumped up and down, as if provoking the crowd to do the same, singing, “Hey! Hey!”


Sai’s voice faded out, as Sasuke slowly swerved his hips and flicked his wrists, as he jumped right into the next verse.


BECAUSE! Sasuke drawled out slowly, as he played, pick against guitar, having Sai sing together with the next verse, as the two leapt into the air, and did a whole 180, degree turn, landing with a BAM!


The audience erupted in cheers.


I am what I am, and nobody else! Sai accentuated that line by pulling his hand back, and pointing his thumb towards himself, and winked at the crowd.And if you've got a problem, better take it somewhere else! And a flick of his wrist, as Sai made a shooing motion.Because I can't turn backI'm right on track!And if you think you know, well then you better check your factsBecause! Itachi thumped on the drums, with his sticks roughly, his voice joining in on ‘Because!’ making that one word, echo through the crowd, down along the beach.


I know! Now Sai chorused with Sasuke, as he echoed Sasuke’s words, with Itachi singing in tune with his little brother. ‘I know, I know!’Wherever I go I go, I go!I know where I standI am what I amHey! Hey!I am what I amHey! Hey!


Sasuke and Sai switched off at each line, as they grinned into the crowd, showing off handsome teeth.


Sasuke sang; Oh can't you see, as Sai finished his sentence, I'm just being me!



Sasuke started; -I can't be you And both said And I don't want to be.Don't try to get inside my head, Cause what you see is what you get!


Itachi threw one of his drumsticks up into the air, as he flipped the other one to his right hand and caught the midborn drumstick with his left, as he beat repeatedly on his drum. Sasuke and Sai both finish the last two verses together as they continued swaying, and jumped into the air.I am what I am, can't help myselfAnd if you don't like itGet with somebody elseI'll never change my waysIt's not a phaseThis is how it is right up until my dying day


This time, on the last verse, as Sasuke and Sai sang, Itachi echoed them, constantly, waving to the crowd to join in!



And I know I know, I knowWherever I go I go, I goI know where I standI am what I am Itachi thumped loudly on his drums, loudly punctuating; Hey! Hey!I am what I amHey! Hey!I am what I amHey! Hey!I am what I amHey! Hey!

The sound of applause again filled Sasuke’s ears as he looked around at all the people. He gave a peace sign while smiling cutely, and then winked tilting his head to the left slight, as Sai grabbed him around the neck, both of them laughing, joyously. His eyes traveled over to Naruto, to see him jumping up and down, clapping, all previous boredom gone. Then their eyes met and Sasuke quickly turned away. Making his way off the stage, he ignored the calls of his name from his elder brother, and cousin, as he bolted off running.



He ran down the beach then stopped to look at the sea, when he thought Naruto wouldn’t be able to catch up to him now. It looked as though the sun was about to set. Tears welled up in Sasuke’s eyes and he rubbed them away furiously. Luckily it was getting late and no one was in view, to see him cry or so forth.



“Stop it Uchiha! You just looked at him! Why are you crying like some heart broken girl!” he thought, as he started walking slowly along the shore, admiring the sun setting, to clear his mind.



“Sasuke?” a voice asked, suddenly, causing him to flinch. Not even turning around to face Naruto, he could practically hear the concern in his voice. He ran off once more, ignoring Naruto calls, like he did his brother and cousin. ‘God damn it! Don’t be nice to me, don’t worry about me!’ thought Sasuke, running as if his life depended on it. ‘Don’t be nice to me, if you don’t really care. . .’ Sasuke sniffed loudly, as he silently cried.


“Oi! Oi!! Sasuke!” Naruto yelled, as he ran after Sasuke, shocked at the sudden rejection from his friend. ‘Damn, Sasuke’s fast!’ Unable to grab the raven in some way to stop him, He ran and launched at the raven, tackling them down into the sand. As they fell onto the soft ground, Naruto made a grab for his wrist to prevent him, but Sasuke wasn’t going down that easily. He struggled roughly, as they rolled around on the ground. Just about to stand up, Sasuke was pulled back down, pinned firmly into the sand, unable to move. “God damn it, Sasuke! What is the matter with you!!!” Naruto yelled, as he tried to take a look at Sasuke’s face, but his bangs shielded them from Naruto’s view, as he turned his head to the left.


“Oi, Sasuke! Look at me! Why did you run away? What’s wrong?!?” Slowly, but surely, Sasuke steadily stopped struggling and turned his head to look at Naruto, black and blue clashing.


Naruto froze, as he stared at the tears he noticed, running down Sasuke’s handsome face.



“You. . .Y-You ass hole! Jerk! Dumb ass!” Sasuke screamed, more tears streaking uncontrollable down his eyes, as he tugged at his wrists once more, but that didn’t get him anywhere. Naruto looked like he was about to say something, his eyes full of confusion, but Sasuke cut him off.


“You’re ashamed of me!” at this Naruto stared down at Sasuke with more confusion, as he slowly let go of Sasuke’s wrist, although Sasuke didn’t struggle anymore.



“You’ve been avoiding me for the past two weeks, haven’t you?! You run away every time I’m around! You act like I have some weird disease and even as I near you, you act as if you were burned! You’re ashamed to be around me!” Sasuke said, crying harder. Naruto was about to protest, as he stared at Sasuke, but he was cut off…once again.


“You don’t believe in labels, my ass! Y-You. . .lied! You lied t-to me! You said you don’t think that I’m a loser! Or a freak!” he screamed loudly, his free arms banging them on Naruto’s chest weakly, repeating over and over, “You lied, you lied, your lied, you lied. . .” his voice slightly muffled because his face was buried in Naruto’s chest, “You lied, …you bastard.” Naruto’s shirt was now soaked with Sasuke’s tears, as Naruto stood there stiffly, with Sasuke holding onto him for dear life.


Naruto had no idea what to do. What was he suppose to say? ‘Sorry Sasuke, I avoided you because I like you, will you go out with me?’ Hell no! That’s just too embarrassing! The past two months, he was slowly but definitely falling for his friend, and although it’s been only two months, he knew for a fact that he cared deeply about Sasuke. He didn’t know how to handle it. . .so he thought it would be better to see less of Sasuke. He didn’t want Sasuke to freak out! And plus, he was breaking up with his girlfriend soon, she kept trash talking Sasuke, and he never agreed to date her! She just clung to him like glue! He just figured a straight out rejection would do. But now this happened, and he didn’t know how to respond.


Seeing Sasuke like this. . .it hurt. Acting on impulse, his body practically moved on its own. Grabbing Sasuke firmly by the chin, he tilted Sasuke’s delicate frame, and stared into those teary black eyes, and before he could help himself, he swooped down and caught those, pink, trembling lips in a heart stopping kiss.
