After our kiss, Naruko and I have been meeting behind my brothers back every chance we could. Now that schools ended, Naruko's spending her summer with her uncle. Since she was now gone for the whole summer, I'm alone again.

I was walking down the road while enjoying a popsicle. The hot blazing sun shined down on me as I walked every step, and nothing but sweat ran down my skin.

I can't go to the beach because of all the people. I could ask Itachi to drive me to the pool, but that'll be packed with people too...

I sighed as I noticed that staying cool in this heat was futile.

I kept walking, not knowing where I was going when I ran into Shikamaru. He was laying on the bench with a book on his face.

I walked past him quietly so I wouldn't have to interact with him.

"I appreciate you not bothering me, but you still woke me up from my nap with your dragging feet. Man, I came out here since it was peaceful, what a drag."

I then looked back to him sitting up as he removed the book from his face. "What's up, Sasuke?"

I sighed and decided to sit next to him. I was tired anyway.

"I haven't talked to you since 7th grade. You became so distant," Shikamaru said as he picked his ear. "We're gonna be freshman, now, huh?"

"You sound like an old man," I said as I finished my popsicle.

"I get that a lot." He slowly stood up and stretched. "Since you already woke me up, wanna go somewhere where it's quiet and has A/C?" He asked while placing his hands in his pocket.

I nodded as I stood up, throwing the popsicle stick in the trash. We then began to walk down the road together to Shikamaru's air-conditioned utopia.

"This is a drag...It's so freaking hot and my body won't stop sweating." He sighed and looked up at the sky. "Don't you ever wish you were a cloud? No care in the world...just floating by..." Shikamaru asked as we reached the library.

I stayed quiet, not wanting to start a conversation.

We walked up the steps of the library and he opened the door and I followed after.

He's right. It's cool here, and barely anyone's here because the library is such a far walk. This is perfect.

"Shikamaru, is that you?" asked an unfamiliar voice.

Shikamaru rubbed the back of his neck and replied, "Yeah, didn't think I'd see you here, Asuma."

The man known as Asuma chuckled happily as he saw Shikamaru. "Guess it's my luck that you're here because I brought my shogi board with me.

Shikamaru sighed and looked at me, "What a drag, I got something to do now. I'll see you once I beat this guy."

He then walked off, leaving me alone. I sighed as I was left alone again. I then walked towards the reading couches to take a nap.

I really miss her...Now there's nothing to do again.

I closed my eyes and took the best nap of my life.

***

After that, I came to the library every day until the end of summer.

I was eating lunch at the closest BBQ place with Shikamaru when Kiba and Choji came by. "Hey, Shikamaru...oh hi Sasuke, didn't know you hung out with Shikamaru," Kiba said as he stood there with Choji.

"Can we join you?" asked Choji as he stuffed his mouth with chips.

"Sure," Shikamaru said as he moved down to make room.

"Alright! Can we order steak?!" asked Choji in excitement as he opened up the menu.

"Choji, what did your parents say?" Sighed Shikamaru.

"It doesn't matter, I'm hungry!" He retorted as he looked at the menu happily.

Damn it Naruko...If you were here, I wouldn't have to be sitting with these people!

"So Sasuke, can I ask who's that blonde girl you're always with?" Kiba asked as he tried to make conversation with me.

"Uh...shes my--"

"Girlfriend?" Choji asked.

"Not really..." I replied a little awkwardly.

"She has to be! You changed so much once she came!" exclaimed Choji.

Changed...? Did I really?

"But isn't your brother going out with her?" asked Kiba a little confused.

Shikamaru looked at me and shook his head, "Come on guys, you're making him uncomfortable."

"You're right, sorry," apologized Kiba as he took a sip of his drink.

I stayed silent until I accidentally said something I never thought I would say to strangers: "I like her."

"Huh?" They said in unison while looking at me surprised.

"No way. But she's with your brother," said Kiba in shock.

"And me," I added. Why am I talking to these guys about this?!

"No way! Did you guys...do anything?" asked Choji in surprise.

I smirked as I replied, "We make out behind my brother's back every chance we get."

"Woah!" Kiba and Choji yelled.

In that moment, I felt like a little kid wanting to show off how cool he was. For the first time, I felt like it wasn't so bad talking to people.

It was the week before school started, and Naruko still wasn't back. I sat down in the living room when my mom came in.

"Guess what Sasuke?"

"What?" I asked while watching T.V.

"Itachi told me Naruko's coming back tomorrow."

I quickly turned to look at her. "What?"

"She'll be here tomorrow at four."

I looked back at the T.v and replied coldly, "Oh, that's nice."

She then giggled and left. Once she left, I grabbed the couch pillow and screamed into it in happiness. Finally!

I then quickly got off the couch and ran to my room. I pressed my back against the wall and measured myself one last time.

I quickly wrote on the wall and then looked at my new height. Puberty is a magical thing.

Before she left, she told me something: "If you somehow magically grow taller than me by the time I come back, I'll...I'll think about going out with you."

Ever since she told me that, I began to measure myself every day to see if I was getting taller, and I was.

I smiled at my current height. "Naruko, you're mine."

***

I was looking at the clock all day, waiting for it to be 4, but for some reason, time was especially slow today.

I was eating lunch with my mom and brother since he took the day off from work to see Naruko.

If only I could somehow get them out of the house before she comes... I sighed as I bit into my sandwich.

"Thank you for the food," said Itachi politely as he stood up to wash his plate. He then washed his plate and went up to his room. Once I heard the door to his room close, my mom immediately began to spit out words faster than I could make out.

"Sasuke! What're you going to do? I didn't know he took today off!"

"Mom?"

"I know, I'll devise a plan to get Itachi out of the house!"

"Mom, Itachi's not stupid."

"I know, I gave birth to you guys. Anyway, so this is what I was thinking. I'll fall down and act like I broke something. I'll get Itachi to drive me to the hospital, and I'll call Tsunade and tell her to keep me on hold for as long as she can. That should buy you a good four hours."

"Did you just think of that?" I asked, completely amazed by my mother's storytelling.

"Of course not. I've been thinking about this plan for a while now, just in case one of you needed some alone time with a girl. Anyway, that's not what's important right now! Now that you've got that man body of yours, I want you to shower around 4:15, and once she comes to knock on the door, I want you to open it with your towel on! That's a real turn on you know."

I lowered my head in embarrassment. I can't believe we're having this conversation...

"No need to be embarrassed Sasuke," she said as she folded her napkin. "Now, when she sees you, she might get really horney. Cuz when women see the body of a man, and the towel is placed quite low, you already have the lady down there howling, if you know what I'm saying!"

"Mom..." I whined as I covered my face.

"What? No matter how old a woman gets, we still have taste!" she then stood up and picked up our plates, "But remember Sasuke, all because I'm telling you to get her to want you, doesn't mean you have to...you know...do it. I mean, you can do it--not that I'm encouraging you to--but doing it is life changing...so don't just throw it away. Your virginity is something you can never get back."

She began to wash the plates and dry them. "You know Sasuke...if you ever do, do it...," she turned to look at me seriously, "Tell me all the juicy details!" She then gave a thumbs up and a smile as she walked away.

"Oh--mom!"

***

It was 3:30 and it was about time my mom commenced with her plan. I was in my room when I heard a thud at the bottom of the stairway. I quickly opened my door and saw Itachi running down the stairs.

"Mom, are you okay?!" shouted Itachi in fear.

I looked at her and saw she had a purple eye. Don't tell me she punched herself...

"Can you walk?" Itachi asked as he helped her up.

"Owww...Itachi, I think I need to go to the hospital," my mom cried as she tumbled back down on the floor.

Itachi quickly ran to get his car keys and opened the door. "Sasuke, help mom into the car!" he yelled as he ran out to start up the car.

"Mom! Did you punch yourself?!" I asked a little angry.

"Shh...It's makeup. But I think I might have hurt myself from the fall, to be honest... I didn't fall on purpose there," she said while laughing.

I sighed at her recklessness. Just like Naruko...

I helped her into the car as Itachi buckled his seatbelt. "Sasuke get in," Itachi commanded.

I looked at my mom and she quickly covered for me. "Itachi! Someone needs to watch the house while we're both gone. Just leave Sasuke here."

"Hmm...fine. See you in a few," he said as he drove off. Once they were out of sight, I fell to my knees in relief.

"I love my mom."

***

I waited till four but saw that she wasn't there yet, so I decided to shower at 5 o'clock instead. In the meantime, I watched a ninjatube video on how to put on a towel in a seductive place. I was set and ready by 5:20. All I needed now was the doorbell to ring.

I was fixing my hair when the doorbell finally rang. I quickly ran to the door and opened it to see her.

Finally, she's back.

She looked at me with a red face, and she couldn't take her eyes off me. "Long time no see, Naruko~."

"Sas-Sasuke? Is-is that you...?" she asked in shock.

"Welcome back, shorty."

"I-I almost didn't recognize you...!"

I unfolded my arms and grabbed her arm, forcing her to come in as I shut the door behind her. I pinned her against the closed door and looked at her with lust.

"I told you...I'm a man."

She looked at me with widened eyes, and before I knew it, she wrapped her arms around my neck and began to kiss me.

"Sasuke...I missed you..." she said between each kiss.

"I missed you too..." I whispered.

She then pushed me away and yelled, "Oh crap! Is Itachi here?!"

I smirked and whispered into her ear, "It's just us two."

She then looked back at me and began to run upstairs. "Where are you going?!" I yelled as I ran after her.

She ran into my room and kicked off her shoes before she jumped onto my bed. I smirked as I looked at her red face. "Is someone--"

"Yes I am horney, damn it! Why the hell would you greet me like that?!" she yelled with a completely red face.

Mom was right! Thank you...

"I'm not saying we do it, but...I just want to hold you...I missed you."

My eyes widened at her words. "Say it again," I commanded like a child.

"No! You know how embarrassing it is to say that!" she yelled with her eyes closed.

I smiled as I walked out of the room to put on my clothes that were in the bathroom. "I'll be back in a second," I said while walking away.

I quickly placed my pajamas on and walked back into the room to see her laying on her side, facing the wall.

I smiled as I closed the door and slowly climbed on top of her. "Don't tell me you fell asleep," I whispered as I kissed her neck.

"Why would I do that? I'm here to see you, not sleep," she said playfully as she turned over onto her back. I bent down and kissed her on her lips happily. I really do like you Uzumaki...

As the kiss began to intensify, I found myself going to lift up her shirt, but I quickly stopped myself, not wanting to make her angry, but instead she looked at me with a disappointed expression. "Why'd you stop?"

"I didn't know if I could..."

She giggled and pecked my lips happily. "You brag about being a man and you didn't even take off my shirt."

"I'm a gentleman," I snapped back.

She then grabbed the end of her shirt and brought it over her head, revealing a black laced bra. As I looked at her, she began to turn red. "Don't look at me like that..." I chuckled as I pinned her down onto the bed.

Pressing my lips against hers again, I kissed her with much passion. I drew my lips away from hers and began to kiss off to the side of her mouth, slowly making my way down the side of her jaw and down the side of her neck, as she inhaled strongly, enticed by my scent. I dragged my tongue down her collarbone, kissing my way down to her bra.

As I was kissing the top of her breast, she took off her bra, allowing me to lick her nipples. I licked and kissed both nipples as I massaged each breast.

"Sasuke~" she moaned as she grabbed onto my black hair.

I continued down her body, onto her belly, still kissing her on the way down, noticing her hands tightly grasping the sheets of the bed. I could hear her painting with every move that I made. I stopped and looked at her lustful face: mouth opened wide, panting while waiting for more.

"Sasuke..." she said as she rubbed her legs together, "Don't stop now, you dummy..."

I wanted to go all the way with her. I was hard, and all I wanted was to do her reckless, but I couldn't completely claim her while she was still with Itachi.

I sighed and played with her hair instead. "I won't do anything more until you completely belong to me."

She sighed and went to put on her bra and shirt. "Yeah..."

As soon as she was done getting dressed, she laid back down beneath me and watched me with her sea-blue eyes.

I placed my hand on her cheek and lovingly caressed it. "Naruko Uzumaki...I love you..."

She cupped her hand over mine and looked at me sweetly, "Sasuke Uchiha...I've loved you since you knocked on my door."

My eyes widened in shock. "What?"

She patted the spot next to her and turned on her side to face me. "The reason why I went out with Itachi was so I could get you out of my head."

"Why would you do that?" I asked as I laid down, bringing the blanket over us.

"Because I was scared of loving you...You're only like what? Fifteen now, which is fine, but you were fourteen, Sasuke, and I was sixteen! I know age doesn't matter, especially when you get older, but you were too young, at the time and maybe a little now too..."

I sighed, realizing the truth behind her words.

"People talk Sasuke...and I didn't want people to hurt you or me if we were to go out. I also didn't wanna admit I had fallen for a kid..."

I placed my arm around her and brought her close to me. As one arm laid around her, the other stroke her blonde hair. "Naruko...do you understand what you put me through? I felt all these weird emotions because of you. I was jealous, angry, pissed, happy, and I even cried!"

"Sorry?" she asked with a weak smile.

"Don't be. Before you, I thought everyday was boring. I thought I would end up marrying Sakura and be miserable all my life. I thought that was my path, my fate...but then I met you. You changed me."

She caressed my cheek as she smiled happily. "I'll break up with Itachi...but I won't date you immediately after! That would be cruel."

"And you think watching you guys 'date' wasn't cruel?"

"Touche," she then turned around quickly and turned off the light.

"What're you doing? It's already 7:30, and you need to be out here before 8."

"Yeah yeah, I'll leave in a bit, but the light's killing the mood."

I kissed her forehead lightly in happiness. "Thank you for coming into my life...Naruko."
