--

Sasuke held his breath. Hidden in a dark corner in an old shut down Ramen Shop, he couldn't bare the pain. He kept silent as he lisented for the footsteps of his Sensei.

"Sasuke.. I know you're in here. Come out, we need to talk." Sasuke knew what Kakashi's words resembled. Sasuke tried to blend his dark blue clothing in with the jet black shadows. Kakashi searched and finally found the weeping boy. Kakashi's eyes widen and grabbed Sasuke by his collar and lifted him up. Sasuke gasping for air, try to pull loose. Still crying, salt water tears fell onto Kakashi.

"Sasuke what are you thinking," began Kakashi. "How could you do this?!" Kakashi looked as if the only eye he showed was about to cry. Sasuke tried not to tune Kakashi in, Sasuke couldn't help not hearing Kakashi scream. "Where is Naruto?" commanded Kakashi.

"I-I don't know. .he ran." said Sasuke frantically.

"I don't want you around him anymore! Do you hear me?!" said Kakashi and he threw the Uchiha down the the hardwood floor.

Kakashi walked out into the cold, rainy day of the village. Rubbing his head, Sasuke got up and was still crying. He didn't want to leave. He didn't care if he had to stay in that hut for a life time. It was better than facing the people of the village. By that time, they knew what had happened with Sasuke and Naruto the night before. Sasuke held onto the door that entered the hut. He looked out into the village, people had already been staring at him. Was it because he was crying, or was it because of what happened? Sasuke slowly walked out and looked around.

As he turned the corner towards the lake, he heard a faint whisper. "Uchiha." Sasuke turned around and Lee was infront of him. Sasuke yelped a bit in fear of someone being right infront of him. "Is it true what happened last night with you and Uzumaki?" Sasuke paused and turned the other way he was facing before. As Sasuke walked, he heard Lee screaming, "Hey! Just don't walk away from me like that! Do you hear me, Uchiha?!" Sasuke kept walking.

It looked as if it was about to rain. Sasuke made his way to the edge of the lake. His salty tasting face was starting to be a nuisance. Sasuke lightly dipped his hands into the fresh lake water and splashed some in his face. He looked at himself through the reflection of the clear blue cut water. Suddenly, he felt a pang through his heart. It felt as if something was wrong. He held the chest area where his heart laid.

"Naruto?.." said Sasuke softly.

Sasuke instantly rose from where he had positioned himself. He started to run to where his instincts told him. After a good run, Sasuke confronted a small area where he saw Kakashi talking to Naruto. Hoping Kakashi didn't sense him yet, Sasuke bend down a little trying to not make himself visible. He leaned in a lisented.

"Naruto. How could you? I never would have guessed, you of all people, would do this." said Kakashi. Naruto remained silent. "Last night, I witnessed something that I will never see again." Naruto looked up in fear. "That's right. I saw you and Sasuke." Naruto started to cry. He tried not to show depression, unlike Sasuke, infront of Kakashi but couldn't help it. "It sickens me to even think about it." commented Kakashi.

Hearing those words, Naruto's body inraged with anger. "SENSEI. I love Sasuke!" screamed Naruto letting anyone and everyone around him hear it. Kakashi's eyes widen. Sasuke, still listening, became frozen. In hearing that, Kakashi lifted his right arm all the way and was ready to smack Naruto. Sasuke instantly saw, and darted towards Naruto. Just when Kakashi's hand was about make contact with Naruto, Sasuke grabbed Kakashi's wrist and stopped the impact. Holding his fist Sasuke's face became strong. Kakashi broke free of Sasuke's grip and punched Sasuke cross the face. Sasuke hit the maple brown clay, landing on his arm. Kakashi turned around not saying a word.

As Kakashi walked away, Naruto ran to Sasuke. "Sasuke! Are you okay?!" Sasuke's eyes opened a bit, only to see his lover. "Sasuke? Are you okay?!" screamed Naruto again. Sasuke's lips formed a smile. "Sasuke, what were you thinking, trying to save me you-"

Sasuke interrupted, "You said you loved me.." said Sasuke.

"Well, yeah.. I do." Sasuke sat up.

"Those few words were all I needed." Sasuke fell apart onto Naruto clinging to him crying. Naruto put his right hand on his head, rubbing it, trying to comfort Sasuke. Just then, a rumble of thunder was heard, and greay rain started pouring.
