AN I'm a sappy romantic… inwardly. Lol. Shh. I also have an affinity for the SasuNaru pairing - cause it's not only obvious, it's also so cute XD (coughandcanoncough)

Summary: Naruto enrols into a female-exclusive school, posing as a girl just to obtain more information on his crush Haruno Sakura. But everything he's so carefully planned goes down the drain with the unexpected appearance of one dark-haired bastard. SasuNaru. Shounen-ai. Alternated Universe (meaning no ninja stuff)

Truly Madly Deeply

Prologue

By BlueRedemption

Enthralling ebony depths caught and held mesmerizing azure eyes.

Found you.

The owner of the compelling onyx coloured orbs smoothly parted through the people dancing, making his way towards his evasive target in purposeful strides.

Dazzling sky blue eyes instantly narrowed as they assessed the boy that stopped directly in front of him, blocking his intended path. Damn!

A side smirk briefly crossed the handsome face of the pale, dark-haired youth in a rather taunting manner. He bowed gallantly and half rose, holding out his hand to the scowling blonde dressed in an exquisite flowing orange gown who, in turn, eyed him in blatant distaste. Overly dramatic sighs were heard from the formally attired girls present in the room - with the exception of the young 'lady' in front of him - from the actions of the sinfully attractive teenager.

"May I have the pleasure of this dance, my lady?" He asked pleasantly, his voice a silky baritone sound that one would describe as something that could easily send an average girl's heart racing. Only the sunny blonde could hear the light mocking tone that was hidden well beneath the suave, almost seductive voice.

Naruto glared angrily in response, sapphire blue eyes flashing in a dangerous manner as he clamped his jaw tightly to keep himself from snapping out a witty remark and simply looked to the side defiantly, ignoring the request. The dark-haired boy's smirk widened slightly as his enchanting onyx eyes that were framed in long lashes took note of the sudden stiffness in the blonde's posture as well as the rigidly balled fists. If those long lashes were on another male, it would've made them look rather feminine, but on Uchiha Sasuke, they only added to the boy's alluring charms.

"Now, now, Naru-chan, didn't we have a deal?" The raven-haired youth's ebony eyes seemed to dance in amusement as he lowered his voice to remind Naruto of his very ... 'delicate' position.

The word 'deal' immediately spurred the unrelenting boy into action.

Twitching, Naruto finally plastered a smile so stiff onto his face that anyone that saw it could tell it was fake without having to analyse it. "Why, I'd love to dance with you, Sasuke-kun!" His voice oozed with a sarcasm he didn't even bother to try and mask as he stood up. Grudgingly, he placed his hand onto the outstretched one of Sasuke's and allowed the taller boy to lead him to the dance floor, trying to ignore the jealous, irritated stares of most of the girls present.

Shit. Naruto thought darkly, How the hell did I get myself into this mess? He questioned himself in annoyance as Sasuke placed a hand gently on his lower waist. Glowering, he shifted Sasuke's hand to sit higher. "Watch where you put your hand if you intend to keep it, you bastard." He hissed, itching to shove his fist into the handsome boy's face to ruin the good looks. The feel of the other boy's nose breaking beneath his knuckles would bring him satisfaction for years to come if he wasn't bound by the pact he had made with the pompous human incarnation of the devil that was currently smirking at him superiorly. Seriously, what a bastard!

"Ladies shouldn't talk like that." Sasuke reproved lightly as he took the lead in the waltz, face serene and devoid of expression.

"I'm not a lady." Naruto retorted without missing a beat, unhappily following the other's lead and growling as Sasuke spun and dipped him. The smirk that he cursed so much was back on the Uchiha's face.

Sasuke moved dangerously close to him, invading the normal dance space bubble, "You're right. You're not. But you are posing as one. It wouldn't be good if your beloved Sakura-chan were to... say... find out the truth about you now, would it?" He whispered, his lips very lightly brushing against the sensitive skin of Naruto's ear.

To anyone that saw the scene, it looked like an intimate moment straight from a cheesy romantic movie, for they had no idea about the actual words that were being exchanged. It was all left to their imagination.

"I hate you." Naruto sneered as he 'accidentally' stepped on Sasuke's foot with the heel of his high-heeled shoe viciously.

Intrigued?

I'm sorry it's short, it's simply a prologue… a teaser/taster.

Write me a review, I'd like to see if you think it's worth continuing.
