You Belong with me: Chapter 1

Chapter 1

It started as a joke. A tasteless way of pranking and hazing in one go.
Just Sakura's way to show off her self-appointed power and to show just how much her boyfriend Sasuke 'loved' her.

But most importantly, she did to torment Naruto in front of everyone in the cafeteria. Which was why she spoke very loud so that her voice carried, making people hear her whether they wanted or not.

The afternoon started as any Tuesday. Haruno Sakura was draping herself across her stoic boyfriend, Uchiha Sasuke. They were the typical couple: She was the cheerleader captain and the queen bee of Konoha High while Sasuke was the star football player and the heir of the Uchiha Empire. She announced them to be a couple and he did nothing as she strutted around with her lackeys and part of the football team wrapped around her manicured fingers.

So again, it started as any Tuesday, Sakura, and two of her closest lackeys… I mean friends, Yamanaka Ino and Hyuuga Hinata, joined the table of Sasuke and his fellow teammates and friends, Sato Sai, Inuzuka Kiba, Hyuuga Neji, Aburame Shino, Akimichi Chouji, and their manager Nara Shikamaru. Sakura forced her way between Sai and Sasuke to sit with her tray of very little food and water, throwing herself over Sasuke so that everyone would know he was hers. Especially the blonde sitting in the corner, not too far from them.

" Oh…Sasuke-kun…" Sakura cooed, pressing her recently added C cups against his arm in an attempt to be sexy.

"Hn.."  Sasuke finally looked at her after trying to finish him lunch. "What is it?"

"Can I ask you a question?" she said, slightly pouting her glossed lips.

Uzumaki Naruto looked at the table pretty much in front of him. He wasn't a football player and didn't flaunt the fact that his family's company was just as rich Sasuke's and didn't wear the trendiest of clothes. But since no one knew about his lineage, not even Sakura who could sense someone rich in a 300 meter radius, he was labeled an outcast. Because of Sakura, and her unexplained hatred towards him, he was also hated by anyone that loved her.

He tried asking her out once when they were younger before he discovered how much of a gold digging bitch she was. He hated her as much as she hated him.
He looked at Sasuke and sighed. They were the closest friends. Actually, when Sakura and her lackeys weren't around, everyone from Sai to Shikamaru were friends with Naruto. But for his protection from her wrath, they avoided him during classes.

The only person he was friends with in public was Subaku Gaara. Despite being on the football team, he was the only person –even more than Sasuke- that scared the school populace.  Which was why he was sitting next to the blonde boy as Sakura started talking.

Naruto didn't pay much attention to it, the most he got out of it was that Sakura was asking Sasuke what he chose over her in a situation of being more important.
So far, she beat the whole football team and a few members of his family excluding his brother and parents. She was on her high horse as he went on; overly reacting to his answers, thinking that it show important she was in his life.

"So Sasuke, last question." She said, giddy and having the whole cafeteria watch her every move.

"Finally," Sasuke muttered before saying aloud. "What is it?"

"Who's more important to you?" she said, posing in the middle of the floor for everyone to look at, flicking her long pink hair and swayed in her cheerleading outfit. "Me, your loving and hot girlfriend or…"

She turned to eye Naruto. Her green eyes would have been still pretty as Naruto remembered them to be if they had not been darkened with malice. "This loser blonde Naruto over here?" she finished with a laugh that lead others into one as well.

Naruto's face flushed as Gaara made the move to stand up. Naruto held him down and shook his head. His blue eyes turned to Sasuke before he made the move to leave the cafeteria before everyone had given her enough hype to ridicule him any further.

"Well, Sasuke." She wrapped her arms over his shoulder and rested her chest on his head, still giggling, "Who is it, as if I don't know already."

Sasuke sighed and responded in one word. "Him."

The table went quiet with the exception of Kiba snickering under his breath. Sakura got up and starting another type of laugh. One of disbelief and denial this time.

"I don't think I heard you correctly," Sakura said, trying to dismiss his answer. "Coach Anko must have rung the whistle in my ear too many times."

Sasuke didn't even waste the energy to turn and face her, "You heard me…"

"Don't say it…" Shikamaru hissed a warning which Sasuke ignored.

"I said that I choose Naruto."

Sakura's face blanched before it went red. "HIM?!"

Everyone went silence as she yelled.  She pointed to Naruto, who was in a state of shock. "You're choosing that blonde loser over ME?!!" When he didn't answer her she shouted again. "Look at me Sasuke!!"

Sasuke stood up and walked in front of Sakura; his face expressing his boredom and tiredness as he towered over her.

"I said," he started to repeat slowly. "That in a situation in choosing either you or Naruto, I'll choose Naruto."

Sakura huffed up her cheeks and stomped her foot. "I'm your girlfriend. I should been first before your friends."

Sasuke snorted. "Naruto has been my friend before I even acknowledge your existence. Sure you're my girlfriend…"

He leaned in closer. "But don't forget, girls like you are a dime a dozen. Behappy that you can say you're found dateable by me."

Sakura give out a noise of exasperation as she stomped off from Sasuke; getting her stuff and slamming the cafeteria door after her. Ino and Hinata quickly followed her. They could hear some poor soul that managed to bump into one of them being pushed and screamed at she stomped down the halls.  

Sasuke ran his hand through his hair and sat down to finish his food.

"You're gonna get it." Kiba laughed slapping his shoulder, "She sounded pissed."

"Hn." Sasuke replied, getting up with his tray. Sasuke made his walk to the trash, threw out the remaining scraps, and turned to the door leading to the hallway. He turned behind looking at Naruto with his dark eyes. When he had eye contact, he smirked and walked off.

Naruto remained flushed and nonresponsive as Gaara called his name.

However, when did Gaara's voice turn into his mother's?

"Naruto…Naruto…NARUTO!!!"

Naruto jolted out of his sleep, almost falling to the floor as his mother pounded on the door. "Hang on mom." He said, getting up.

She stopped knocking. "Why is the door locked? Are you masturbating?"

Naruto went red, as threw a pillow to the door. "What…Ew… MOM!!!"

"If you are, it's ok." She replied, pressing closer to the door. "I mean everyone does it.  It's a natural thing. Even me and your father do it…"

"EW…EW…" Naruto screamed. "TOO MUCH INFORMATION MOM!!! TOO MUCH!!!"

Before she could speak again, her husband called her. "Kushina come down and stop scarring the boy. He'll eat later if he wants to."

Kushina sighed and whispered through the door, "Sorry, I'll make a plate for you." "I'm coming Minato."

Naruto sighed and plopped on the bed. "My parents are crazy. You would think that business CEOs were stable minded."

He turned to stared out the window, looking at Sasuke as he reading his book. Naruto smiled. He still couldn't believe that Sasuke stood up for him in public. Normally Sasuke would just leave and Sakura would just follow him since she had to be attached to him. He thought back to when they first met.  How they remained friends even when people told Sasuke that he was too good for the Uzumaki.

There was a time Sasuke didn't act like –as Naruto puts- a prissy tight ass with a social problem to people. Everything changed when he started dating Sakura. She was always trying to dominate his time and make him into what she wanted. He liked Sasuke the way he was. He could even say that he loved Sasuke for who he was. However, he could never tell Sasuke.

First off, Sasuke would reject him and start shunning and then Sakura would have ammo to further make his life a living hell at school.

He continued to look at Sasuke, watching leaving his bed and pick up the phone. From the way he moved the phone away from ear before going back to talk on the phone, pacing the floor; it was Sakura yelling at him. He could make out the words from Sasuke's lips.

Naruto got up from the bed and walked to the window, watching Sasuke argue with Sakura. Seeing the stress that filled his face. Naruto sighed. "Why can you see that Sakura isn't the one for you…"

"Can let me talk for a second?!" Sasuke said over the phone, holding the phone away from him, "You know what…"

He clicked off the phone and threw the phone on the bed, grabbing and shaking his head. He turned to his window.

Naruto waved and held up a notebook with writing on it: 'Are you ok???'

Sasuke smirked, writing something on a notebook and showed it to Naruto: 'Tired of Drama'

Naruto pouted, as he wrote: 'Sorry '

Sasuke just shrugged and went to close his curtains as Naruto was writing something. By the time Naruto had finished, Sasuke was out of sight.

Naruto looked sadly at the covered window as he held up the sign: 'I Love You' He threw the book onto his desk and turned on the radio. Already a song was playing. Naruto smirked.

Taylor Swift huh? Naruto thought as the lyrics started.

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
She's going off about something that you said
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do

Naruto looked back to the window. "I swear the radio has psychic powers or like a damn mood ring or something."

I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do

Naruto started typing his foot.  He had to admit that the song was really catchy and describing perfectly. Naruto found himself dancing around his room with the song.

But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
She's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
You, you belong with me, you belong with me

Naruto jumped back onto his bed and start air guitaring. Just jumping around, using one of his brushes as a microphone, and shaking his hips as he smiled.
Unknown to Naruto, Sasuke went to checked on Naruto from behind his curtains only to find Naruto to be dancing around his room. Sasuke smirked and started laughing as he continue to watch the blonde boy make a fool of himself in private.
Naruto slid to the floor for the finale before walking out his room to get some food.

"I gotta download that song." Naruto told himself. "But first… ramen…"

"Dobe…" Sasuke said to himself, closing the curtain and turning off his lights.

You belong with me.
You belong with me
