Wow it's just like me to type something up while I'm currently working on Dim Memories, but whenever you get struck by something...you can't help it right? Right. The plot of this story came from a book I read when I was younger called, "The Klone and I" and that's how clone was spelled peoople. But, it will be wrote differently then expected. I mean, if you read the book or read the summary but it's pretty old as ancient tells but whatever.

Warning: You pretty much know the warning, so do I have too? Of course...This story contains BOYXBOY read it and weep and if you love it, read it and cheer. But if your not a fan of it, then kindly click the backspace in the upper left corner near your address box or click it off all together. I don't care, just don't flame me. You brought it upon yourself. Oh and if it slips out into OOC, psh can't blame me we try and we try to hard it comes out like that.

Disclaimer: I would like to announce that Naruto will never BELONG to me.

Chapter 1

The sun was shining, as a new day was starting to come into view as it would start out as a normal day for everyone, everyone that didn't have any problems to deal with, they go to to work, kiss their lover or husband goodbye for work and the other would care for the house and kids. However, this day was not going to normal for one person, as they slept in, undisturbed by their significant other that was no where to be seen, that was only to be suspected to be taking their morning shower. The sound of water running, awoke the sleeping being as the sun shined brightly on their face, wincing as their eyes tried to adjust to the warm welcome the sun brought as they rose up, stretching. The sound of their bones cracking a bit, as tan hands ruffled through blonde hair, as they opened their eyes again to reveal beautiful azure blue eyes, as a yawn erupted from them as they yawned their whiskers that looked to be drawn on, on each cheek stretched along with his jaw. They heard the sound of water, figuring that their significant other, Sai, was getting ready for work as he thought back of their previous night of sex. It was good, but lately it wasn't amazing like it had been, when they had first started dating when they were younger. Now, it been 10 years since they decided to live together and they enjoyed living together, but one thing as he began to notice in Sai, was whenever they did make love, he wouldn't look him in the eye anymore, or the fact whenever they were finished, he turned away from him as he tried to cuddle to him. He tried to talk to him about it, but he would always push it away, saying, "It's nothing to worry about Naruto, I just been busy lately and things are always on my mind."

Of course, this is what Naruto bought but he always had things on his mind, but everytime he asked, it would be shot down by telling him not to worry. Of course, one day he decided to call his friend, Sakura Haruno, and tell her about the recent changes, but even as the pinkette was smart, she couldn't put her finger on it...or maybe she knew the signs and wasn't telling the blonde. Sakura known Naruto since they were in high school, and she always knew of Sai and Naruto being together since their whole high school year and the years after that, but she had to admit that she did see some signs of distance from Sai but she wasn't too sure. However, Naruto decided not to hammer the woman, he knew that Sakura wouldn't have the answers to everything, besides she had recently found a boyfriend that she introduced to the couple a few weeks ago. To say Naruto was petrified, was a understatement...he knew his friend had taste, but he never knew how she could ignore so much green in her life, because Naruto was looking at St. Patrick's Day right in front of him, and damn it wasn't even March! He remembered Sai's expression was unreadable, because he always had this smile on his face that Naruto could read was either fake or a real one, but it annoyed the hell out of Sakura whenever she saw it. He could remember when he first introduced Sai to Sakura, and quickly knew it was a mistake, since Sai had no idea that the slightest words he would say would be rude as hell.

Flashback

"Sakura-chan, I want you to meet my new boyfriend, Sai. Sai, this is one of my good friends, Sakura Haruno." Naruto introuduced, a wide grin across his face as Sakura smiled and stretched her hand out to shake and greet him.

Though, Sai was looking at the woman, wondering how in the world could someone pull pink off? Because, this was the first girl that he noticed that had pink hair, though he was sure he seen her before, but wasn't paying enough attention to her.

"Hello, ugly."

Naruto's jaw dropped, as Sakura's light green eyes quickly turned a shade darker, signaling that she was taken from being happy to being pissed. "Excuse me? That is no way to greet a lady!" She spat, she was trying to be nice and not cuss him out for Naruto's sake, but that had pushed her near the edge she was standing on. She was already pissed earlier about what a friend said, and the things she was doing to give herself a bad name, realizing no matter how she told her how her life would be treated, she still did it and that made her blood boil in annoyance. Now she had to deal with this clown.

"I'm sorry if I angered you, but it's the blind truth. Most men would get an erection by staring at women, that was beautiful and stunning, but I get none from you. Even though, I am far from in the middle of being attracted to males and females, you do nothing for me."

Gritting her teeth, she could see this smile on his face as he said this, a possible fake smile because it seemed as if it was forced onto his face. She didn't like it, even if was real or fake, she was going to punch that smile off his face. "I'll kill you, you son of a bitch! Who do you think you are, coming to me with that fake smile and then insulting me? I ought to-"

Naruto chose to grab his boyfriend before Sakura decided to murder him, or do something worse. From then on, he decided to keep the distance between Sai and Sakura, if they ever crossed paths, he would be sure Sakura would send Sai to a hospital.

End of Flashback

He chuckled low, as he didn't register that the running water of the shower had stopped, as the door opened to reveal a tall, lean, pale figure that was dressed in normal clothing, as that's what he worn everyday when he was heading out to work for the company that he published art too. He also worked in photography witht them, but he desired to paint more, as everytime he worked on designs for them, they pay him for the excellent artwork he did. Of course, Naruto didn't know the exact name or even if had a name, but he knew whatever job Sai had that involved him painting or working with something that related to art, he enjoyed it. But today, he didn't have his drawing pad or the things that he cared with him, as Naruto would see him caring paintbrushes, pencils, charcoal and other items with him around when he was in town. However, today he had nothing as Naruto thought that maybe he had a break, if so, he would maybe suggest that they go out and spend some time together, but before anything could said, Sai walked over toward the bed, the blonde was still laying in. Bending down, he gently pecked him on the cheek as Naruto, brought a tan hand up to his cheek where the kiss was given to him, as he was going to ask what that was for, until three words he thought he never hear came from the raven's mouth.

"I'm leaving you."

The breath caught into Naruto's throat as he stared back into the dark eyes that he knew all these years, those dark eyes that swallowed him whole as he would find himself falling deeper and deeper into them. "What? Your leaving me?" He asked, trying to see if he heard right, as Sai looked away from him, avoiding eye contact as the blonde shook his head slowly. Why was he doing this to him? They had been together for a long time, so why in the hell did he decide to drop it all on him now? Then he thought back to the signs, as he could have been prepared for this, but he didn't want to believe it himself. Their relationship was ending...

"I'm letting you keep the house, but I'm moving in with her...I already have someone coming by later on today to get my stuff."

So it was a woman? Dumped for another woman? He should have seen that coming, knowing that Sai was bisexual and all. He wasn't exactly the type to stay with anyone to long, by the huge flirting he's seen doing with others. But still, this was coming out of no where, as Naruto was silent until he sighed. "How long?" He questioned him, as Sai still avoided eye contact. "Five months." Five months? So, this little affair had been going on for five months, so all this time...Sai was just staying with him until it was time to tell him.

"As I said, I have someone coming here later to pick up my stuff. The house is yours to keep, I'll be staying with her." Sai said, his voice emotionless, as he rose up from the bed, as Naruto stayed there unmoved, as his lover, now his ex-lover walked out on him. It seemed that his world was falling apart around him, as he curled up in his bed, as a small tear ran down his face.

"WHERE IS HE? WHERE THE HELL IS HE?!" A voice boomed, as Naruto was sitting his living room, curled up on the couch as the volume of the television wasn't up that loud, as his friend came storming into the house, as she had her own personal key made. He thought it was a bad idea at first, but it came in handy whenever he was lazy and didn't want to get up to answer the door. The raging pinkette was looking around the house, once Naruto called her and told her what Sai did, she flew to his house, earning herself a few tickets in the process but she later would pay half of them and half of them would be burned. "He's not here...he already left to be with his other lover." The blonde spoke, his voice hinted with depression, as all the fury in Sakura extinguished as she walked over to her friend, in full support. Naruto could see that she was dressed in black pants that showed off her figure, as she had a white shirt that had words imprinted on it that said, 'HOT STUFF' in hot pink as she worn black boots that had tight buckles wrapped around them, as he thought she looked really pretty. Either she was getting ready for a date or she was shopping before she heard the news about what happened between him and Sai. "I can't believe he would do that to you. You guys been together since we graduated from Konoha High School and hell, that had been what a few years back from now and you guys been together for 10 years! Who the hell breaks a relationship off just like that? And from what you told me, he's been with this whore for five months!" Sakura nearly yelled, she was being loud but she couldn't help it whenever she was angry and trying to get something across as she sighed, as she stared at the blonde. He was wearing gray sweat pants and a plain white t-shirt, all in all, he didn't even look like he was himself wearing plain clothes, she saw him in orange and no other color. If it wasn't for her, he would look like a highlighter for the rest of his life, but due to some hard convincing and a few punches to the head, he brought more colors in his wardrobe.

"I don't believe she's a whore, Sakura. She's just...his other lover. Looks like I'm on the dating market again."

"She's a whore if she's willing to steal him away from you! And Sai, that bastard, shouldn't have did this to you! Your a great person to be with, you have a great personality, your hot as hell, I'm even jealous of you from time to time." That earned her a slight chuckle from the blonde as he looked at her, as a small worried smile was on her face.

"I don't blame you, for not going after him. Hell, I wouldn't want too, after what he did to you. You deserve better than some man-whore he can't keep his d-"

"Don't even finish that sentence, Sakura."

Her green eyes looked into blue, as she saw that he still had love for him a little bit, but she knew it would take some time for him to officially get back out there and start dating.

"I just don't know what made him leave me, Sakura. We had sex like every other day, aside from his little dickless comments that he still calls me, though from the time that we fucked, I would have thought he changed by now. But, it was like a nickname for him, I guess, but I still just don't know. I mean, I may let my appearances go sometimes, considering that I would let a little hair grow on my legs, a tiny bit of chicken may be stuck in my teeth or I may smell like ramen after I had it, instead of bathing but that was tolerable." He spoke, as he remembered the first time that he smelt like ramen, Sai, basically avoided him telling him he didn't want to smell like ramen if they were going to have sex, so he had to bathe but he didn't mind half the time. Half the time, he told Sai to stick it up his ass and deal with it, and the other stuff he figured, Sai just plainly ignored. Sakura rose an eyebrow, as she listened, Naruto was completely in love with ramen, so hearing that he would bathe to please Sai, meant that he was head over heels for him as she looked at him. She placed her hand over his, patting it in comfort.

"Listen, you are a strong guy Naruto, don't let this bullshit get you down. Someone out there is probably just waiting to find a great person and that great person is going to be you! Listen to me, you shave those legs, pick your teeth, bathe ramen off you, though I know how much you love that and get your fine ass back out there! Just for support, I'll call Kiba and Hinata, if you want me too I'll inform them of what happened and they will help you get through this, as I would be by your side."

Telling him this, she earned a small smile as Naruto nodded. Even though, his relationship with Sai had ended, he would somehow survive this best way possible. He had his friends that would help him, as Sakura motioned him to stand up as she pushed him in his bathroom, as she was forcing him to go out with her. He needed to clear his head...so, why not.

"Kiba, I don't give a damn if your just getting your lazy ass up out of the bed! Your meeting us, at Ichiraku's if you like it or not, and just to make sure that you come, I'll call Hinata's cell phone and tell her to drag you down here. Naruto is in the time of need, and he needs us to make him happy so be the best friend that you claim yourself to be, and get your flea-bitten ass down here, no agruements!"

Ending the call, Sakura smiled at herself as she opened her contacts and texted Hinata, telling her to drag Kiba to Ichiraku's with her and Naruto, since there was an issue that came up. She didn't want to provide the details of what happened on the phone, instead she just wanted to tell in person, as Naruto said it would be okay, they would find out eventually. She made him dress in lighter clothes, since sweats and a plain shirt wasn't going to cut it with her, as many years as he known her, he should have known that by now. He wore blue jeans that was tight around him, as she said she would get him another pair of pants, but they would be for dating reasons, as he worn a orange shirt with a yellow swirl as the swirl matched his tattoo, that was on his stomach. It was quiet for a moment, as Sakura's message tone was heard as she got a 'okay' from Hinata, as she smiled to herself. Another silence was upon them, as Naruto decided to break the silence, if he stayed anymore in silence, he would start to think of the raven.

"I wonder how I'm going to tell Grandma Tsunade and Ero-Sennin about this. They were looking forward to a marriage, well Jiraya was looking forward to it, because he wanted to peek on the suppose honeymoon to get his dirty research. Grandma I wasn't so sure, she probably just wanted to see me get married and be over it, besides living as lovers. But, mom would probably fit me in a white dress." Naruto shuddered, as he thought back to his mother talking about fitting him in a white dress, if he was ever proposed by some lucky guy and his father, had to keep his mouth shut or his mother would make him wear it. Sakura chuckled, "Yeah, Jiraya always worried me about his porn book. Kakashi is one of his biggest fans, yet I don't even want to think of all the crazy people who would buy that book." As she said that, she thought about it, but the people who would read it, was the ones that wasn't getting any from the other. Finally, arriving upon Ichiraku's they both got out of the car, as they went inside, as the smell of ramen hit Naruto's nose, a smile drawing to his face as Sakura smiled to herself, as all he needed was ramen in his system. The man from the back, waved at Naruto as the blonde smiled and waved back, as he was a regular as his favorite place as they sat down, as Naruto ordered Miso Ramen, while Sakura just had water, as she wasn't really that hungry. They waited awhile, until they heard the door open to see a blushing Hinata and a sleepy looking Kiba. They walked over to them, sitting down in their chairs as there was silence as Kiba was the first to break the silence.

"Sakura, what the hell is the meaning of this?"

"Oh, you know. Just wanted to hang out, eat a little, talk a little. If you hadn't noticed, Naruto has issues and he needs all the comfort that he needs."

Kiba looked at the blonde, as he noticed that was an unusual amount of silence coming from him, as he waited for the blonde to tell him, as he noticed that Sai wasn't with him. Taking a deep breath, he looked at two across from them.

"Sai left me, for another woman."

And, stop. I just wanted to there for a while. The next chapter will contain their reactions and his next steps into doing to recovering. I do have moments in here, where I'm trying to add humor but you know...there is always a fail when trying to be funny. But overall, I liked the chapter even though...yeah. But, it's going to work out...

Review, I made Cinnamon Buns and Cookies!

Btw, I love Sakura in this story as well. Lol, I couldn't make her an enemy in the story, she has to be the strong female friend for Naruto, though he has a male one, but hey, she known him longer. She's going to be a bitch in some ways, but it's going to be a good bitch because she's helping him get through the troubles!
