Okay! Everyone who reads this has to read the character descriptions!! I posted them, and, you're not going to believe this, it is titled characters!!
This is a SasuNaru fic mainly. You can find out the rest on your own.
And since this takes me a really long time to write/type, It will not be updated on a schedule! I have other things to do people!!
I call Orochimaru Rochi, Naruto Naru-chan, and probably Tsunade will be Tsunade-baa-chan
Itachi is dead, but was a good guy in the end. The akatsuki are dead (Kisame's alive), and Rochi is there, but with little power.
Kell is a new person that came along shortly after Sasuke had left the village.
Kyuuketsuki (Kyuu-chan)(knows the kyuubi, buddies kinda) came at the same as Kell, with Kell actually.
Risa was there longer than that, she was there during the chuunin exams, wasn't in them at all, and had met Gaara a bit before then, becoming his friend the best she could. (Was better after exams)
Risa and Gaara are now married
Kell is with Neji (you'll find out how that works out later)
Sasuke made it so Rochi is pretty much powerless, and so he isn't really the bad guy anymore, he has basically given up. Rochi actually gave in because he got a girlfriend (amazing I know). The girl's name is M.Z.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Not even my mind, that's for my people that live there.

Chapter One:
Sasuke is now back in Konoha and living at his family's estate. Naruto, his best friend, visits him often, along with Sakura and the rest. Sakura is not a fangirl anymore and is actually with Lee. Sasuke wondered about that, but decided it didn't matter, at least she's not obsessing over him anymore. It's not like he didn't like her at all, but she was a friend, and he had never really been interested in girls anyway. He knew that was stupid, seeing as how he needed to restore his clan and all, but he couldn't help it. He was lucky that Itachi had "been with" Kisame before he died. Since Kisame was a fishman, he could change gender, strangely enough, and have kids. So now Sasuke sometimes had to babysit little Toric, the offspring of Kisame and Itachi. Sasuke never did like kids, and this only intensified that dislike. The kid was BLUE for Gods sake! He did have the sharingan, the only good thing, and now he didn't have to worry about restoring his clan. He was gay, and he knew it, but the only person he liked really at all, was a certain blond jinchurriki. He had thought about going for Neji, but he was taken by that girl that had come here shortly after he had left. Sasuke had always thought Neji would go for Tenten, but she was apparently more interested in girls, specifically her girlfriend, Temari. The only other person he had thought about was Gaara, but he'd rather tear out his eyes than try that. Gaara alone was enough to handle, but his new wife would kill him, no, not even that, he would be lucky to die. Damn that Risa, of course, he was never going to say any of this aloud, no, it was only for inside his head. The proud Uchiha was too afraid to tell that one person that he loved him.
Sasuke had actually asked Sakura about it, and what he should do, once he was sure she was over him, and they were just friends. She didn't even freak out or laugh at him. She told him to tell Naruto the truth, the worst that could happen was that he would get rejected right? It was either that, have Sakura tell Naru-chan for him, or to never know and miss out on what might be his only chance. He could see the sense in that, but it didn't help his mood at all. So, to shake himself out of it, he decided to take a walk. He didn't know where he was going, but eventually found himself running into Naru-chan outside of Ramen Ichiraku. Naruto, in his haste to get some of his precious ramen, had run straight into Sasuke, knocking him over, and, unintentionally, landing right on top of him. Sasuke opened his eyes to find Naru-chan's face just a few inches away.
"Ooooowwww. What the hell?" Naru-chan opened his eyes to find Sasuke's face right by his. Naru-chan stared at him, shocked for a split second, which was too long considering what was going through Sasuke's head at the moment. Naru-chan blushed and jumped up.
"H-hey Sasuke. Um, sorry about that. Lunchtime ya know?" he managed out.
"Hn." Sasuke turned to walk away.
"Oi! Where're you going? You can't just walk away from me, dattabayo!"
Sasuke rolled his eyes, Naru-chan could be so predictable, "Weren't you doing something else, usurantonkachi?"
"Huh? Oh yeah! My ramen! Hey! Don't call me that teme!"
Sasuke ignored him and walked away, the longer he stayed aroung Naru-chan, the more ferocious his thoughts became. He had been using all his self-control to stop himself from kissing the blond when he had the perfect chance. And he was pretty sure that kissing Naru-chan like that right outside of Ramen Ichiraku wasn't a good idea. Sasuke went home and preceded to take a cold shower, hoping to get the blond's face and how close they were out of his head. (mind out of the gutter thing)
Meanwhile, Kell had gone to Suna with Neji to see her friend Risa, on the pretense of being delegates for Konoha. Okay, so that was what they were supposed to be doing, but what was the point? Gaara was the Kazekage, and his now wife was one of Kell's best friends, so it was more like visiting and getting together with friends. They had heard that Rochi was there too, but Neji didn't think so, although Kell believed it because she knew who Rochi was with. Kell really wanted to tell Risa what she had seen outside of Ramen Ichiraku.
As soon as they were escorted into the Kazekage mansion, and into some random room where Gaara and Risa were, Kell and Neji both were tackled to the ground before either of them could react, the door just shutting behind them. Kell looked up to see a grinning face above her as she was helped up.
"Hey Kell-bear! How have you been?"
Kell glared at Risa, "I told you not to call me that!" she looked over at Neji, who was currently being helped up by a silent Gaara.
"Ah, but it is just so much fun. I adore it!" she smiled, "And what has brought you two here? A friendly visit, news to learn? Or are you just here to make sure we aren't plotting the Leaf's downfall?"
"That's about it. There is no other reason we would come to this place." Gaara turned around, "accidently" knocking Neji back over.
"That's the official reason at least. We heard that Orochimaru was here, is that true? Did M.Z. come to visit?"
"No, actually, M.Z. was just passing through, they're headed to Konoha. You just missed them. Sorry, I know you didn't want to see me after all."
"We were just wondering, Neji didn't believe they were here. So, what's new?"
"Well, how about you tell what news you have first, all right?"
"Okay. You know how we've been saying that Sasuke is gay, and is WAY into Naru-chan?"
"Yeah, it's obvious. Even if he won't admit it. Why?"
"I have proof!" Risa leaned closer eagerly awaiting the gossip, while Gaara and Neji went into a different room, to talk about affairs of the villages, "Sasuke was walking around, and just happened to get in Naru-chan's way in front of Ramen Ichiraku, so Naru-chan knocked him over and landed on top of him! When Sasuke realized who it was he blushed like mad, and froze up, wide eyes and everything. I bet he wanted to kiss Naru-chan! So Naru-chan opens his eyes, wondering what happened, and sees Sasuke's face right by his. Naru-chan freezes for a bit and then jumped up. He stuttered out "H-hey Sasuke. Um, sorry about that. Lunchtime ya know?" It was hilarious. Sasuke did that stupid "hn" thing, and began to walk away. So Naru-chan is all, "Oi! Where're you going? You can't just walk away from me, dattabayo!" kinda thing. Sasuke just rolled his eyes and said, "Weren't you doing something else, usurantonkachi?" and Naru-chan said, "Huh? Oh yeah! My ramen! Hey! Don't call me that teme!" It was so funny. Sasuke just walked away then. Bet you can guess what he was thinking!"
Risa laughed, "Taihen! I wish I could've seen that. Damn, I need to go to Konoha soon. I'm starting to miss seeing people, and I SO want to witness stuff like that!"
"I know! Anyway, what's your news? I know you have some, so don't even try it."
"Try what?"
"To not tell me!"
"Tell you what?"
"Your news -Agh! Your doing this on purpose!"
"Doing what?"
"Stop that."
"Stop what?"
"Just tell me your news!"
"Hey, do you walk to walk around?"
"Huh, um, I guess, no! Wait a minute! You are not going to distract me! Tell me all ready!"
"Um, well, you see..."
"Get on with it!"
"You know how Gaara and I are married...?"
"Yeah, what about it?"
"You know, it really is a nice day out."
"Don't get off the topic!"
"Hey, there's Gaa-chan and Neji. I'll tell you later Kell-bear."
"Wha! Hey! Tell me!"
"What are you talking about Kell?" Neji asked her.
"Agh! She won't tell me!"
"Tell you what?"
"I don't know. She has a secret and I want to know what it is!" Kell glared at Risa, but didn't notice Gaara stop and shoot a look of surprise at Kell, and then glanced at Risa.
"You two must be tired from the journey here, you should rest. I'll have someone show you to where you can stay." Gaara interrupted Kell's little rant, earning a glare from her.
"I'm not that tired. I would MUCH rather stay and talk with Risa a bit longer."
"No, no, Kell-bear! You need to rest, don't stay up just for my sake!" Risa exclaimed as Gaara came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist lightly. Gaara looked toward Neji.
Seeing that, Neji went over and took Kell's hand, "You can talk to her tomorrow. It is late anyway." he looked at Gaara, "Well?"
"Kankuro is outside the door, he will show you where to go."
Neji nodded and almost had to drag Kell out of the room, who was pouting and throwing glares in the two's direction. Once outside of the room, Kell shrugged Neji off and smiled at Kankuro.
"Hey Kankuro. How're you?"
"Hey Kell. I'm good. You two get the room down here."
"Hey, Kankuro?"
"Yeah?"
"Risa was about to tell me something, when we grew too tired to finish talking with her. She said it would be okay if you told us instead. So?"
"Not a chance! I know that she wouldn't do that! It took them forever to tell me and Temari, and we're family! She wouldn't even tell Gaara for a while." he looked shocked, "Oops, I wasn't supposed to say that much."
Kell's eyes widened slightly, "She wouldn't tell Gaara?! That's it, spill it!"
"This is your room, later!" Kankuro took off.
"I wonder what it could be that she wouldn't tell Gaara for a while?" Kell turned to Neji, "Any ideas?"
"No."
"Hmph, you're no help. Is there anyway you could contact Kyuu-chan at all? She might know.
"Kyuu-chan?"
"Kyuuketsuki."
"Oh. Can't you just let it be? Perhaps it is not your destiny to know." He said, leading her to one of the two beds, (No way am I letting you with him Kell-bear! Ha ha, I'm evil) "You should rest."
"I don't want to! I have to find out what the secret is! And if say something stupid like it's not my destiny to know, I'll smack you!"
"Can you at least wait until the morning, you do need to rest."
"No! I wanna know!!" Neji grabbed her around the waist and sat down on the bed so she was in his lap. She shifted a bit, but otherwise didn't care, and continued on with her rant.
"She starts to tell me, tries to distract me, and then won't tell me!! If she wouldn't tell Gaara at first, it had to have been something big." she turned to Neji, who looked at her and got the full blast of the puppy look, "Why won't she tell me?" she almost looked about to cry.
He sighed, "I'll go ask them." she smiled, "But," oops, smile's fading, "you have to sleep. Deal?"
"Deal!" she kissed him on the cheek, jumped off of him, and got into the bed, "Thanks Neji. Goodnight." with that, she closed her eyes and her weariness from the traveling took over.
Neji smiled and went to the door, shaking his head. He knew that as soon as she woke up, she would ask him what he had found out. With that in mind, he quickly went up to the Kazekage's rooms.
Outside of the doors, Neji stopped to listen, using his Byakugan he discerned that both Gaara and Risa were in the room. Instead of knocking, or even going in, he decided to wait by the door and find out what they were talking about.
"You were actually going to tell her? You wouldn't tell me for weeks, but she comes and you are ready to say everything." Neji recognized Gaara's calm, and cold, voice.
"Yes, I was. Am I not allowed to tell my friends Gaara? I have told you, and now it has been around two months, I even told Temari and Kankuro a few days after I told you. After I knew you were all right with it."
Gaara sighed, "I did not mean you couldn't. It surprised me Risa. I apologize."
"Will you stop being so formal with me? We could at least put on a good show for Neji." hearing that, and seeing that they were facing his direction, Neji slowly opened the door.
"Neji! Whatever could have brought you here so unexpectedly!" Risa smirked at him.
"You should all ready know. Kell wishes to know your secret, and would not rest until I had told her I would ask you."
"Then-" Gaara was cut off.
"Skulking about the door and spying on us is not asking Neji!"
"Yes, I apologize for my rudeness. Now, will you please tell me what you are keeping so secret?"
"No. Nice try though. I think I will go back to Konoha with you. Then I will tell Kell-bear, Kyuu-chan, and Tsunade-baa-chan. Is that all right?" Gaara had the tiniest smile on his face when she had said Tsunade-baa-chan, while Neji didn't even let it faze him. Naru-chan said it as well after all.
"It is always welcome for you to come back. Will the Kazekage be joining you?"
"Of-" again, Gaara was cut off. This time by whining.
"Gods Neji! Can you please be not so formal! It gets quite annoying." he smiled slightly.
"Fine. Will he be coming?"
"Yes."
"Really Gaara? You don't have to you know. I will be-"
He glared at her, "I am going with you."
She sighed, "Fine. There you go Neji. Gaara and I will be joining you and Kell-bear on the way back. When are you going to leave?"
"I was hoping for the day after tomorrow, so as to get some rest."
"Of course! You need your rest! Go to sleep now! You should know the way back. Bye!"
He nodded and stepped out, outside the door, he heard them again, "You need rest as well Risa."
"I do not! You just don't want to deal with me anymore! Fine! I don't care!"
"Risa-"
"I'm sorry Gaara, I didn't mean it." she sounded extremely sad.
Neji shook his head and smiled as he went back to the room and got in the other bed, "I think I know what the big secret is."
