Naruto looked at Sasuke with a sad look in his eyes. "Hey, don't worry about it mate," Sasuke pointed at the sofa in the corner of the room "you cool with sleeping on there?" Naruto nodded shyly and smiled. Naruto trudged over to the sofa and sat down on it. Sasuke again felt the atmosphere becoming awkward, but this decided to continue watching the television without a sound.

The television played for about ten minutes before Sasuke began to hear snoring from Naruto's direction. He walked over to the bed and pulled a duvet over him. The boy looked at peace as the snoring began to fade and his face took on a slight smile. Sasuke smiled back at the boy, before wandering back to his own bed.

The next day Sasuke awoke before Naruto, who obviously was in need of rest and so Sasuke lazily dressed himself, not bothering to shower, and made his way to his small kitchen. Jesus Christ what a headache. He grabbed a couple of pieces of bread and stuck some ham between them before walking back to bedroom. After sitting down on his bed, he noticed that Naruto was sweating and squirming about under the duvet. "Naruto are you ok?" Naruto didn't reply, "Naruto are you ok?" Sasuke repeated. When Naruto didn't reply he rushed over and put his hands onto Naruto's shoulders in an attempt to wake him. "NARUTO!" Sasuke shouted worriedly. The boy's eyes shot open and immediately they filled with tears. Naruto lost control of his body and sat up, wrapping his arms around Sasuke's body. Sasuke did the same. "N-Naruto, are you… are you ok?" he repeated once again.

"Thank you so much Sasuke, thank you so much for letting me sleep here, but I… I should be going…" Naruto got up and faced for the door, but Sasuke grabbed him by the hand.

"You're not going anywhere 'till you tell me why you didn't have anywhere to sleep." Sasuke stated in a soft yet firm tone. Naruto sighed and sat back down on the sofa. Sasuke continued to hold onto Naruto's hand.

"I'm out here because I ran away from home," Sasuke looked at Naruto in a way to tell him to continue, "and I ran away because my dad was… he was beating me… because he's an alcoholic." Naruto's eyes began to fill with tears, and to Sasuke's surprise, so did his.

Sasuke pulled Naruto to his body as Naruto's tears began to flow freely down his face. He hugged Sasuke more tightly. "Don't worry Naruto. You… you can stay here as long as you want."

"You mean it?"

"Sure, as long as you want," Sasuke pulled away and smiled at Naruto, "Go on," Sasuke ripped the sketchy sandwich he had made earlier in half and gave half the bigger half to Naruto "Eat up mate."

Ok I guess this chapter is short but I'm tired T_T. So again please R&R and tell me what you think and what to improve, because this is my first fic and you probably know more than me.
