Its nights like these that make me regret ever leaving my blue eyed angel to train with Orochimaru. I returned to the village after being gone for 3 long years to meet my team mate, rival and best-friend a completely new person. Before I left, we were inseparable, best friends…Lovers… Everything changed when I stupidly left him in pursuit of more power to go and train with that snake bastard. I always wondered how the dobe was doing, wondered if he'd moved on and wondered if he still thought about me occasionally. There wasn't a day that went by when I didn't drift into space reminiscing in memories about my blue eyed angel and all the things we shared and went through. Even the day when I finally killed Itachi, that day that was supposed to fulfil my life's long dream and ambition didn't feel the same without the presence of my one and only love.

When I came back to Konoha, I didn't expect Naruto to welcome me back with open arms. I mean after all I had rammed a 'chidori' right through his chest. But I must admit, I also didn't expect things to be so different. My angel in a bright orange jumpsuit who had always been known for his loudness and obnoxiousness completely changed, his orange being traded in for black and that grin which I loved so much never reaching his eyes the way they used to. Since I returned home to where he was 3 months ago, he and I haven't even had a real conversation; he ignores me and never seems to acknowledge my presence and it saddens me to know that I couldn't really blame him. It kills me when I can't see him happy; it kills me to know that I caused him so much grief and pain. A week after my return, I found out from Sakura who is also in our squad that Naruto's been going out with Neji for about a year now. I mean Neji of all people. The guy probably showed less emotion than I did always spewing this and that about 'destiny' and all that crap. And to top it all off, according to rumours, there's also some sort of spark between my Naruto and the Kazekage of Sand Gaara No Subaku.

I am currently standing outside his window listening intently to him as him and his current lover express their emotions through the act of 'making love'. The sounds emanating from Naruto's now bigger apartment twisting painfully in my already scarred chest.

"Shit Naruto, you're s…so t…tight mngh!" I hear Neji moan as I press myself closer to the window. A wave of jealousy hitting me as I wanted to be the one seethed deep within Naruto, kissing him passionately, arms wrapped protectively around his waist. My heart screamed at Neji to get the hell out of him, that I was there first, but I knew it would be pointless because I had been the one to severe and eventually break our precious bond.

"N…Neji, harder, f…faster!" I remembered when it used to be me those words were spoken to.

Flashback.

It was an ordinary day as I slept over once more in Naruto's cramped apartment. I pressed him flush against the wall as I attacked his neck, nibbling, sucking, biting and licking the tender and sensitive flesh. I detached myself from his neck to kiss him deeply. I nibbled slightly on his bottom lip asking for entrance which was quickly granted as he parted his lips, my tongue gliding in smoothly as our battle for dominance commenced. Tongues roamed warm caverns as we didn't let a little piece inside our mouths go untouched. Quickly enough, I won the battle as I explored his mouth, my tongue licking and feeling every groove and dent, memorising everywhere my tongue touched as I had done so many times before.

We pulled apart for air after what seemed like eternity being connected together. Damn human nature for the need to breathe! As soon as we'd caught our breaths, clothes would be viciously and desperately stripped of our bodies as we made our way towards the single bed that we always loved to share.

I would kiss my way down his jaw line leaving traces of saliva as I continued my path downwards, stopping to suck on those perfectly pink nipples.

"Aah Sasuke…" I loved it when he moaned my name. It drove me right to the brink of sanity… Biting the already hard nipple until it became even harder; I always added more pressure, loving the gasps that came from my lover's mouth. When I felt like the puckered nub had been tortured enough, I repeated my actions with the neglected nipple. I would continue licking my way down his stomach dipping my tongue inside his belly button before licking the swirls of his tattoo which was really sensitive to my touch!

"S…Sasuke…I want more!" He would always plead for more, that pout of his driving me over to the edge.

"Eager aren't we?" I smirked. Grasping his member roughly, I began stroking it, loving the strangled moans that came forth from those luscious lips. Quickly becoming too aroused, I took his entire length in my mouth loving the way he took a sharp in take of breath. I slowly brought my head up humming around his member sending vibrations through out his entire body. I grazed my teeth along the entire length before taking his pulsing dick back into my mouth and deep throating him as if my life depended on it. While sucking him off, I presented him three fingers letting him coax them wet with his saliva. While he was distracted, I gently pushed in my index finger allowing his body to become accustomed to the intruding feeling before adding a second one, stretching him making a scissoring motion as he writhed underneath me. Inserting the third and final intruding finger, I aimed my fingers and a slightly different angle, pleased when he made that noise I loved to hear. I aimed for his prostate with every thrust loving the little whimpers he made. I released my mouth from his cock as I pulled my fingers out of his entrance. He whimpered at the loss of contact.

Hovering over him, I slowly pushed my length inside his tight and puckered entrance completely burying myself in the warmth that enveloped me .I pulled out half way not wanting to hurt him in anyway what so ever. I would always be patient when it came to Naruto.

He slammed himself onto my cock impaling me in the heat of his body. I took it as a sign to start moving.

"Move…S…Sasuke!" I was happy to oblige as I started at a slow rhythm not wanting to hurt my precious blonde.

"Sasuke…H…harder, Faster!" I did just that not denying my love any request he asked of me. I aimed at a slightly different angle smirking in victory when I hit his prostate!

"Oh God Sasuke… R…right there!" I slammed in an out of him repeatedly always aiming for that certain sport that made him see stars and scream my name out in EXTACY. The room was filled with our united moans and the slapping noise of our skin making contact with each other.

Grabbing his neglected member when I felt my orgasm building in the pit of my stomach, I started to stroke his member in sync with my thrusts.

"Aah…Sasuke…So close! I'm gonna CUM!" He screamed my name as he squirted his liquid into my hand and onto our stomachs. Feeling his walls clench around me, I was good for another 4 strokes before emptying my seeds deep inside him as I came with an incoherent word that was supposed to say "Naruto" but sounded like "Nwutoo!" I pulled out of him, cuddling close to him on the bed.

"I love you Sasuke!"

"Love you too Naruto!" He smiled that heart warming smile, that smile that always made my heart melt all over again.

"I hope things stay like this for ever and don't ever change! Promise me you'll stay with me forever and won't ever leave me." He looked up at me, hope and determination clear in his eyes.

"Of course I do…You really are an idiot. Like I could ever leave such a great piece of ass behind!" I smirked as he playfully punched me in the arm.

"Teme"

End flashback.

Hearing them reach the moment of blissful orgasm, I slowly retreated away from the window using all of my will power to restrain myself from going into the room and kicking the shit out of Neji. I jumped into the now silent street of Konoha that would eventually lead me on my path home to the Uchiha Manor.


I woke up to a gentle knock on the door. Groggily, I walked down the stairs opening the door to reveal Shikamaru waiting outside the door. Since I returned to the village, I have grown considerably close to the Nara genius. He was also the only one who knew about my love for a certain blonde haired shinobi. At least the only one I personally told, I think some people could probably already guess from the glares Neji seemed to be receiving from me.
"What are you doing here Shikamaru?" I asked too tired to realise why he was knocking on my door. I mean it was still too early in the morning for Shikamaru to have even gotten up.

"What do you mean 'what are you doing here?' It's already 1 pm. I thought Uchiha's were supposed to be up before the sun?" He asked clearly mocking me by his tone. Wasn't there something I was supposed to be doing today, something important? Oh well, I'll think of it later.

"Hn, whatever; so what do you want then?" I asked hoping I could go back to sleep soon, it's not like I didn't have a reason for being so tired; I spent half the night by Naruto's window. I shuddered as I thought about Neji claiming my Naruto as his.

"Geez you're such a troublesome stalker…If you know you don't like him and Neji getting all intimate, why d'you keep practically stalking them?" It still amazed me at how easy he could figure out certain situations.

"Hn. So what are you here for anyway?" I repeated my earlier question having yet still to receive an answer.

"Oh yeah…Hokage-sama has asked me to drag your lazy butt to her office. We all have a mission in Sand soon. Everyone is already there, did you forget or something?" He gave me the much needed information. I scowled as I thought about that not only would I now be fighting with Neji for my blonde, I would also have to compete with Gaara.

"That's not a good look for you Uchiha!" He scolded as I shrugged him of.

"Just give me 10 minutes to take a shower and get ready." I replied not even waiting for an answer as I made my way to the bathroom upstairs ready to get the information on this mission with the rest of Team 7 now including Sai already present at the Hokage Tower.


Upon entering the Hokage Tower, I smiled towards Naruto before my features quickly changed into a scowl when I saw Neji's hand snake around his slender waist. Noticing almost everyone in the room questioning my look, I buried all emotion deep within me as my face returned to its normal impassive nature.

"So you've finally honoured us with your presence… You're late Uchiha… I will not tolerate tardiness amongst my shinobi!" Everyone in the room seemed to laugh after she'd finish scolding me about being late.

"Ha-ha baa-chan, you said 'tardiness'!" I heard my angel laugh out loud. It wasn't his usual obnoxious smile but for now it was better than seeing him depressed.

"okay brats…Shut up! As you all know, Team Kakashi, Team Asuma and Team Gai will all be going on a mission to Sand…You are to help them rebuild the place after the attack on the Kazekage. Team Kakashi and Gai have all the details on that, so if you want information, don't bug me and ask them."

"Hai Tsunade-sama!" We all said in Unison as we waited for our departure time. I would be one of those people to ask because at the time I'd actually still been Orochimaru's subordinate. I'd always wondered why they'd waited 4 months to start rebuilding their country.

"Gather by the gates at 2 pm! You are to leave immediately. This mission should last approximately two weeks. I will be waiting for your reports. Don't ruin the friendship we now currently have with Sand thanks to the help from Naruto." Tsunade s aid sternly looking at each shinobi individually.

We all bowed in respect as we each went out separate ways to get all our weapon pouches and everything ready for the mission.

I went home quickly packing my bag with all the needed items such as food and spare clothes. I walked to the gates to find only Naruto. Wondering where Neji was, I cautiously walked closer to him, happy when he wasn't walking away like usual.

"Hey Naruto." I said casually, the tension around us seriously suffocating me.

"Hey!" He replied.

"So how've you been Naruto? We haven't really talked sine I returned. Maybe when we get back from this mission, I could treat you to Ichiraku's or something…" I asked knowing that he never passed up an offer on free ramen. I really wanted to become close to the blonde again, I hated not being a part of his life anymore. I hated the fact that he could be happy without me. I hated the fact that I wasn't the one waking up besides him every morning. I looked into his eyes as he contemplated if having lunch with me would be such a good thing.

"Yeah maybe…" It wasn't the answer I was expecting, but it was much better than when he'd usually just make up some lame excuse and tell me he already had plans even though I knew he didn't. I was ready to continue our small talk not knowing when again I would get a chance to speak to him so freely without any interruptions when Neji suddenly appeared beside him.

"Uchiha" He glared at me as he put his hand around Naruto's shoulder, pulling him closer towards his chest.

"Hyuuga" I replied before walking away from the both of them in preference of sitting in a tree before everyone else would arrive. I seriously wanted to kill the Hyuuga. He was acting like Naruto was his possession. I'm not being hypocritical because Naruto was mine and I was his. I'd known the blonde way before stupid Neji met him at the chuunin exams. I looked at the path as one by one everyone started to arrive until we were left waiting for just Kakashi. It was all ready 3 pm when everyone became impatient as we were still waiting for the arrival of Team 7's sensei.

"Jesus where the hell is your sensei forehead? He's already an hour late!" Ino said to Sakura breaking the silence that had fallen over us.

"Shut up Ino pig. He's always late. One time we had to wait 4 hours for him to show up and he came up with some lame excuse about saving a cat that was stuck in a tree." Sakura replied to Ino as I thought about that specific memory. It was the last mission I went on with Team 7 before I left the village and Naruto.

"It wasn't a made up story Sakura, it really happened." Speaking of the devil, Kakashi reached the gate in a puff of smoke surrounding him.

"Whatever, so what took you so long this time?" Sakura all but yelled at Kakashi.

"I swear you're not going to believe me." Kakashi replied hoping that Sakura would drop it at that.

"Try me!" She retorted. Sighing he started to tell yet another tale.

"Well you see, I was coming out of the grocery shop when I saw an old woman trying to cross the road. I think she had poor eye sight because she just walked into a stampede. The cows would have crushed her if I hadn't shown up. I felt sorry for her so I took her grocery bag and decided to walk her home to prevent her from walking into another stampede. Who knew she lived an hour away from the store?" Kakashi finished off his tale as everyone stared at him bewilderedly.

"LIAR!!" Both Sakura and Naruto shouted at the same time. It amazed me how they always got worked up by Kakashi's tales even if they knew some absurd rescue story was to be expected. I guess no one had changed after all, no one except Naruto.

"I said you wouldn't believe me." He said amused as he gathered everyone and explained our formation to us. It would take us three days to get to Suna as we weren't really in a hurry.

"Okay, Okay let go already. I haven't seen Gaara in like four months." Naruto said excitedly pumping his fists in the air. That was a gesture I hadn't seen in a long time and it made me wonder if the rumours about Naruto and Gaara were true. I looked towards Neji to see if anything seemed different about his behaviour. To my surprise, he didn't even look phased that his *cough* boyfriend *cough* was excited to see another man. I really wanted to know what the hell was going on with Naruto and Gaara and Neji but I guessed it would have to wait till we got to Suna as I doubted either Neji or Naruto were willing to tell me the full story.


A day after we left Konoha, we were ambushed by a set of rogue ninjas. There were literally about two hundred ninja's ready to attack us. They chased after us until we came to an empty field. We all calmed down and took our stances as we readied ourselves for battle. It was Just our luck that we had to run into an army of rogue ninjas.

They came at us from every direction possible. I used my Shadow Shuriken to slice and dice my way through 10 men before starting a series of kicks and punches aiming them at random men. I looked at everyone else in the group and it didn't look like they were having trouble as they were busy getting rid of the people who were attacking them. Though no one was having much trouble with fighting the rogue ninja, there was no end to the amount of them as they just kept coming. No matter how many I cut down more just kept taking their place, I looked over to see the team having similar problems.

"Kakashi-sensei, there's no end to them. It doesn't' matter how many I knock out, more just keep coming at me!" Sakura yelled as she sent another ninja flying with one of her famous Sakura-power punches.

"I know, just be patient for a second until Naruto finishes his technique. He'll be able to take care of all of them. We'll just have to back him up for now!" I heard Kakashi shout back to Sakura and he also sent a few ninjas sky high with multiple chidoris. I looked around trying to find the blonde mop of hair I loved so much noticing that he indeed wasn't on the battle field. I looked around the area hoping to find him when I spotted him in a tree, Neji closely protecting him from any ninja that dared to interrupt his preparations. I jumped up towards the tree to assist Neji not because I wanted to help him but because I wanted to be the one close to Naruto, to be the one protecting him.

"What is he doing Neji?" I asked noticing Naruto's blond locks change colour to a crimson red.

"Just watch Uchiha. Naruto's gotten a lot stronger since you left him to die at Valley of End." Neji's words cut through me as I started at Naruto regret taking over my senses that I couldn't even see the rogue ninja that was about to cut my head off. I couldn't even see Naruto's movement when he suddenly appeared before me and threw a kunai that went through the unknown ninja's throat.

"Pay attention teme!" He shouted at me, his voice snapping back to reality. He made a few hand-signs and all of a sudden red chakra shaped like swords shot out of his body and killed all the ninja's in one attack. I looked at Naruto in pure amazement as he glared at Neji.

"I told you never to bring that up Neji. It's not your place to talk to him like that!" Naruto shouted at his *cough* boyfriend. I watched them amazed as Naruto stood up for me. He turned from Neji to send a glare in my direction.

"This is between you and me Sasuke and Neji had no right to say what he just said but none the less this doesn't mean that I forgive you teme." I watched as his hair turned back to the golden shade of blonde that rivalled the sun's rays.

"Is everyone all right?" Kakashi asked the entire squad for this mission.

"Hai!" We all answered as we regrouped and got back to our formations. We carried on our journey to Suna. We reached there half a day early due to Naruto motivating us and exclaiming to us all how much he wanted to see Gaara!

"Shut up already Naruto. We're already here!" Sakura said as she hit him over the head.

"Ittai, Ittai, Ittai Sakura-chan that hurt!" He pouted as he rubbed his head that had just been hit with Sakura's brute strength, but I couldn't expect anything less from Lady Tsunade's number one student, that didn't stop me though from wanting to punch her for hitting my dobe.

"That's mean Sakura!" Neji half-heartedly glared at her, "even though he deserved it."

"Oi who's side are you on anyway? I thought you loved me?" Naruto feigned sadness as he faked his tears. Neji pulled him up and kissed his head in an affectionate manner.

"Of course I love you! I'm just saying relax. You'll see Gaara soon!" I growled inwardly. I wanted to kill Neji. How could he act so affectionately with my blonde in the open like that? I hated the fact that everyone just accepted them. When we were lovers, we had to keep it a secret because we weren't sure how people would take it. The only people who knew were: Iruka, Kakashi, Sakura and Shikamaru.

I turned from them cooing at each other as I drank some on the water in my bottle. Suna was a hot place after all being as it's in the desert and everything.

"Okay we need to hurry. I thought you wanted to see Gaara!" I pointed out as I got myself ready to head for the Kazekage's office.

"Yeah Naruto, I thought you wanted to see me!" Gaara suddenly appeared with a group of Shinobi with him. Naruto suddenly left Neji's grip and he jumped the young Kazekage.

"GAARA!" He practically shouted in the young Kazekage's ear. He jumped on Gaara's back as soon as he stood up wrapping his legs around the Kazekage's waist. I looked around the group to find if any of them found Naruto's behaviour odd but no one seemed to pond on it. They shrugged it off as if it were normal. Now I really wanted to know what had happened.

"So can we get going now, my feet are killing me?" I asked getting fed up with Naruto being all lovey-dovey with Neji and now Gaara. Gaara turned and glared at me. I was taken aback; I hadn't done anything to him yet.

"Hello Uchiha." He practically ground out.

"Don't be mean to the teme Gaara. Only I can!" I watched as Gaara's face turned back to the friendly smile after Naruto ruffled his hair.

"Yeah, yeah. Everyone these shinobi will escort you to where you'll all be staying. You'll all have to share three rooms as we obviously don't have all the buildings repaired yet. Does anyone have any problems with that?" He asked as he stood by the shinobi whom escorted him here.

"Naruto, you'll be staying with me right?" He asked as he looked at the boy still on his back.

"Yup!" Naruto exclaimed as he pumped his fist in the air for emphasis.

"Neji you too right?" He asked looking over at Neji.

"Right." I was wondering how Neji could keep his composure with his *cough* boyfriend acting like that with the Kazekage of Sand. No one else seemed to show any form of interest as they discussed how the room sharing thing was going to work out between all of us. We followed our escorts reaching the Kazekage's tower in no time.

Upon seeing Naruto leave with his lover and the Kazekage trailing behind them, I suddenly became too tired to ponder on the whole Naruto and Gaara thing, so I just slept on the couch somewhere while everyone else sorted out the bedroom arrangements. I guess tomorrow I'll just have to find a few things out about what kind of relationship those two have going on.


Yosh! I thought I'd start a new story while I have some spare time on my hand. I was bored today and this idea hit me. I don't know if it'll be promising but I'll do my best on it. If anyone has any ideas on things that they'll like to see happen, please tell me and I can keep them in mind when I type the second chapter to this. I think there'll also be a lemon next chapter.... Possibly…

Anyways R&R!

Reviews are love!

Ja ne.

Oh and by the way, this isn't in any way related to "Gaining Your Love." I'm just kind of stuck on that one...I think I'll have chapter 6 up by wednesday!
