Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of its charaters...(Good thing too, I'd probably make them do crazy porn related things all the time...probably yaoi stuff non-stop...although, maybe that wouldn't be that much of a bad thing, would it??)

(Random Author's Note) Yaaay! I finally finished Chapter 2 of my lovely vampire fan-fic! I feel so happy! -runs around throwing streamers and such- It took me a long time to write this! I re-wrote this who knows how many times because I didn't like how it was going... The first time I liked it but it wasn't long enough! Second time I make Sasuke go WAY out of character. The third time I added some stuff I hadn't even fucking talked about yet! Arghness, but I have editted like crazy and I'm now satisifed! And yes, I do realize that the story has been somewhat boring and pretty confusing but I can't help it, the starting chapters are always weird because I have to get the info out! I'll do better next time though... hopefully. Anyway, enjoy Chapter 2 and tell me what you think!

Chapter 2: Rude Encounters

Sasuke was about to lunge down and beat Kiba to death but he felt arms wrap around his waist and pull him back.

"Don't! Leave Kiba alone!" Naruto pleaded as he held onto Sasuke even tighter.

"Let me go!" Sasuke growled in a low and hate filled voice, he looked at Naruto and glared at him with his red eyes. "That bastard should die!"

Naruto looked at Sasuke with fear etched on his face.

Sasuke had seen that same expression on his face over a century ago... It burned back into his mind with the memories that came with it.

"Please Sasuke, don't do it" Naruto begged him. "You're scaring me"

He calmed down immediately. He had scared Naruto all those years ago. He didn't want to do it again.

Sasuke looked away and quickly turned off his blood line, making his eyes turn back into their dark color.

"I'm sorry," Sasuke apologized in a low and soft voice. "I... didn't mean to scare you"

Just as Sasuke was going to look at Naruto... he smelled a horrible stench in the air.

He looked around frantically. His eyes were wide as his body began to shake. Kiba was just as alert as he jumped to his feet and looked around to see the source of the stench.

"I - Itachi" Sasuke gasped out. "W - Where the hell is he?"

Why did he appear now after all these years? What was he here for? What was he planning to do? To say? What the hell was going to happen?

"Fuck, this isn't good" Kiba whispered to Sasuke. "What the hell are we supposed to do!?"

"Go get the others!" Sasuke instructed.

"What!?" Kiba gasped. "But it's your brother damn it! You can't - "

"Just shut up and go!" Sasuke hissed. "You of all people don't need to remind me what he did!"

"But - "

"I have more of a chance of fighting him off and living that you do! Now go damn it!"

With that last rage filled burst Kiba ran out of the door and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Sasuke stood absolutely still after pushing Naruto behind him and against a shelf. He wanted to protect Naruto this time. Nothing or no one would harm him this time. As long as he lived he would guard Naruto with his life.

Scanning the shop he tried to locate Itachi...

Cold and shallow breath hit against Sasuke's neck and ear. He froze. It felt too familiar to him...

"Once again little brother, you left your guard down" spoke Itachi in his maniacal voice.

Sasuke's eyes went wide with horror as its equivalent expression surfaced as well.

He turned to face Itachi, but he had disappeared. Sasuke began to panic. He snapped his head forward to search for Itachi but encountered his older brother's fist instead. Sasuke's head was forced to the side due to the affect of the blow. Staggering back he tried to throw a punch but was stopped as Itachi gripped his fist and punched him in the face again: this time braking his nose as he forced him down to the ground. Tears formed in Sasuke's eyes as he winced in pain, now holding his bleeding and broken nose.

"You would think my dear little brother would at least learn how to dodge by now," Itachi spoke in a bored tone. He huffed. "What a shame"

Sasuke glared at his older brother.

Itachi sighed. "You look at me with such hatred but you yet have proven to me that you can beat me"

Itachi slapped Sasuke across the face.

"If you wish to look at me like a murderer you must be able to do the deed" Itachi spoke.

Sasuke didn't dare look at his brother as he prayed that the others would arrive soon.

"What a pity," Itachi sighed. "Who knew my little brother would become so weak and soft?"

Not removing that mocking serious expression of his, Itachi swung his leg and kicked his brother in the side. Sasuke bit his lip and groaned as he now lay on the ground. Although the blow seemed petty and small to Itachi the impact had in fact cracked Sasuke's ribs. Itachi glanced at Naruto who was frozen in place by fear.

"There was only one true time that I actually believed you had the hatred enough to kill me" Itachi continued. "And that was right after I had drained most of your lover's blood." An evil smirked appeared on his face. "Maybe I should do it again." He looked down at Sasuke. "What do you say little brother? Maybe then you'll finally gain the strength you always wanted."

Sasuke groveled as he slowly wrapped his arms around his brother's legs.

He stayed there as if begging his brother not to hurt Naruto.

Itachi looked down at him and frowned. He pulled away from his brother's grip and kicked him in the stomach. Sasuke groaned and shielded his stomach in pain. Itachi huffed, disapproving of his younger brother's weak actions. He kicked him again and again and again in his chest, stomach, legs and any other place he could reach. Lastly, Itachi kicked Sasuke straight in the jaw, then his face. Sasuke was forced to lay on his back at this point. He lay there with bruises and cuts bleeding non-stop all over his body and many cracked, fractured and even broken bones. Naruto leaned against the shelf, watching in horror but unable to do anything.

"What a shame," Itachi spoke. "Not even your lover will stand up for you. You truly are alone aren't you?"

Itachi lifted his foot and began to stomp down on Sasuke's legs at full strength. The sound of Sasuke's screams and breaking bones echoed through the shop.

Tears spilled out of Naruto's eyes. He couldn't take it... What was he supposed to do?

"Stop it!"

Itachi stopped and looked up at Naruto. Had this petty human just ordered him to stop?

"I take orders from no one" Itachi said sternly. "Especially from weak individuals such as yourself"

"If you don't leave him alone," Naruto said, "I'll kill you"

Itachi stared at him. He chuckled darkly. "You'll kill me?" Itachi said again. "I find that hard to believe"

Slap!

Itachi slapped Naruto across the face with so much force Naruto's legs gave in. Falling to the floor on his hands and knees Naruto did his best to hide his pain.

"You had a hard enough time trying to look away from what I was doing. Your fear clouds that useless mind of yours"

"I'll kill you if you hurt him again" Naruto continued. Ignoring Itachi's statement Naruto bent down and tried to remove as much blood as possible from Sasuke's face.

Itachi was about to grab Naruto but Sasuke pulled Naruto down to the floor. Forcing him to lay down he got on top and shielded him with his weak and bruised body.

"So you'd rather die than witness your lover's death again?" Itachi asked his sibling.

Sasuke simply stayed there, giving his brother a silent answer.

Itachi opened his dark coat and unsheathed an elegant katana.

"So be it" Itachi said wielding the weapon with breathtaking skill. "You'll die together"

Itachi swung his arm back and was about to strike down his brother but he stopped himself.

His nostrils flared as he caught the scent of near by vampires approaching him. He looked up as the door was blown open and right off its hinges. Damn, Itachi hadn't planned for so many people to come. He hadn't fed his thirst in a few weeks so he wasn't to full strength. He'd leave with more than just a scratch if he fought. Putting away his weapon he hissed at the intruders and ran off to the back of the store and out the back entrance as he disappeared into the night.

Sasuke felt relieved at that moment. His companions had made it in time after all. As those familiar figures disappeared to hunt down Itachi, Naruto wondered as to what to do... Moving slowly and painfully Sasuke managed to adjust himself and kiss Naruto's forehead.

"Whatever you do," Sasuke whispered. "Don't take me to the hospital. And don't leave me out in the sunlight..."

With those last spoken words Sasuke finally gave into his exhaustion and passed out...

Sasuke felt a strange warmth against his face... He stirred slightly, not knowing what this warmth was. But just as he moved the warmth disappeared. Sasuke groaned in his sleep and reached out to capture this warmth once again. He grasped something and tried to pull it down but it had some additional weight. He grunted as he began to feel irritated. Yanking it down with whatever strength he could it toppled over and fell on him, or rather, someone fell on him.

The person squirmed and tried to pull away but Sasuke merely wrapped his arms around this person's waist and rolled over as he now lay on top.

Sasuke grunted as he cuddled against this warm body. The person underneath Sasuke felt rather uncomfortable at the moment though. He began to squirm in place as he tried desperately to remove himself from Sasuke's clutches. A growl was released from Sasuke's throat as he began to get irritated with this person's pestering movements. Slowly opening his eyes he then leaned up and now rested on his elbows as he gazed down at the person.

Sasuke smirked as his eyes adjusted to the light and noticed Naruto's bright red cheeks.

"Do you feel uncomfortable?" Sasuke asked Naruto sweetly.

"Y - Yes" Naruto stuttered out shyly.

Sasuke lifted his pale hand and stroked Naruto's cheek gently.

"Good to know" Sasuke whispered.

Sasuke leaned down and let their foreheads touch as he stared into Naruto's bright eyes.

"D - Do you mind getting off me?" Naruto muttered quietly.

Sasuke smirked. "As a matter of fact, I do" he whispered.

Naruto shook his head and looked away from Sasuke as he desperately tried to pull away. But Sasuke was not going to allow him to leave just yet.

Sasuke pouted. "Do you really wish to leave that badly?" Sasuke asked Naruto.

Naruto froze. Nodding his head furiously Naruto couldn't help but admit his desire for personal space to the raven.

Spreading his arms Sasuke leaned down and began to breath against Naruto's ear gently.

"Am I that repulsive?" Sasuke asked the blonde.

Naruto couldn't answer.

One simple explanation was that this idiot wasn't very good at lying.

If he told the raven that he did find him repulsing the other would immediately notice that it was a lie. But he couldn't just tell him the truth. He couldn't tell him that he found him attractive. That he desired him. That he didn't want him to leave. It would be too awkward.

That faithful night when Sasuke and Naruto had met was an extremely disturbing experience. Never had Naruto seen so much pain be inflicted on another. Never had Naruto been so scared that he wouldn't stand up and defend someone. And most importantly, never had he cared so much for another in his life. He couldn't quite put his finger on it but he cared about the raven.

Could such a strong bond be formed between strangers?

Naruto had asked himself that question numerous times throughout this time.

Sasuke had been asleep for 7 days and 7 nights.

Every waking moment Naruto could he'd sit by Sasuke's side and tried his best to tend to his wounds. This turned out to be quite an easy task though. His bruises and cuts had banished merely a day later. All of Sasuke's nearly fatal injuries had healed in a matter of days. Naruto couldn't help but admire the stranger. He couldn't help but wonder to himself how all of this was possible. If he was still in a dream. If this person that had protected him would just disappear and never appear in his life again.

"Please get off" Naruto told Sasuke.

Sasuke's eyes widened slightly. Naruto sounded so calm. His voice had sounded more like a plea than a request. Sasuke ignored the nagging urge inside of him.

"Give me one good reason" Sasuke whispered seductively.

Naruto shivered as he heard such an electrifying command. He tried to brush it off.

"I need my personal space! Why else!?" Naruto exclaimed.

"Pardon me" Sasuke continued. "I told you to mention one good reason. Not a petty one."

Naruto squirmed as he felt himself go into a rage. "What the hell are you talking about!? That is a good reason! I'm not about to tell you the truth damn it!" Naruto screeched. But just as those words left his mouth he stood still and felt like cutting his tongue off. Why the hell did he say that?

Sasuke smirked and pulled away slightly as he gazed into Naruto's eyes.

"What is this true reason of yours then?" Sasuke asked sweetly.

Naruto felt like killing something at this point. Like a squirrel or something. Or preferably Sasuke. Naruto's eyes darted away as his head went along with them. "I'm not going to tell you..." Naruto spoke softly.

Sasuke cocked an eyebrow. "Is that so?" he asked in a low and stunning voice.

A chilling shiver went up Naruto's spine at that point. God, how he loved Sasuke's voice. It was so erotic. Those words spoken to him alone could get him aroused. A furious blush appeared on his face as he tried to clear his mind of those thoughts.

"Y - Yes" Naruto stated.

A devious smirk appeared on Sasuke's face once again. He bent down and tilted his head as his lips stood dangerously close to Naruto's exposed neck.

"Are you sure I can't persuade you otherwise?" the chilling voice rang again.

Naruto sank his teeth into his lip as he tried to act unaffected by the provocatively petrifying breath hitting his skin.

Nibbling on the blonde's skin erotically Sasuke tried his best to keep his pace agonizingly slow. Trailing down he could feel Naruto's body react to his bizarre advances against the other. Sucking Naruto's skin sensually Sasuke couldn't help but admire the blonde's rare yet charming taste. Even in another lifetime Naruto was still as delicious as he was before. A peculiar whimsical sensation overwhelmed Sasuke's body at that point. He could feel his arousal kick in at that moment. How he craved to claim the blonde as his own at that moment. How he desired to have himself within Naruto. How he longed to have Naruto scream out his name in ecstasy.

Precisely at that moment soft mews were released from Naruto's mouth as he craved for Sasuke to continue this intimate contact. To continue touching him. Fondling him. Caressing him.

This wasn't the time though. Sasuke couldn't take advantage. His instincts told him to wait. Everything he carefully planned for would go to waste if he indulged himself at this moment.

Then just as the fondling had begun it ended.

Sasuke pulled away from Naruto and pushed him off the bed.

Naruto landed with an alarming thud to the floor. Groaning in agony Naruto tried to ignore the pain in his back for landing awkwardly on the random objects that laid on his bedroom floor. Rolling over Naruto slowly got up and glared at Sasuke.

"What the hell was that for?" Naruto remarked.

"I don't want to get you too aroused" Sasuke stated dully.

Rolling back in place Sasuke laid his hands underneath his head for support as he then looked out the window and away from the angered blonde.

A hurt expression appeared on Naruto's face at that moment. Was all of that just a cruel joke then?

"Good to know you were just screwing with me" Naruto said bitterly as he turned to leave.

Sasuke felt like strangling himself at that moment. He hadn't taken Naruto's feeling into account. How heartless was he?

"Wait"

The room went in silence at that moment.

That had been the first time in over a century that such a pleading command had left Sasuke's lips.

He wasn't even in his relaxed position anymore. His arms stretched out towards Naruto as he sat up and gave the blonde an unusually supplicating expression.

Turning to face the raven Naruto's eyes went from anger to shock in an instant.

"What?" Naruto asked awkwardly.

Sasuke forced himself to relax as he pulled back and forced his arms down. As his expression returning to it's usual dull nature he spoke, "Did I truly arouse you?"

At the moment that Naruto heard those words his face went scarlet with embarrassment. Had the raven not noticed before?

Sasuke smirked and chuckled at Naruto's reaction. "Never mind" he said sweetly. "Your face says it all"

Naruto glared at him at that moment.

"Fuck you very much!" Naruto shouted. "Your the asshole that started it!"

"I didn't think you'd actually go along with it so well" Sasuke stated dully. "I didn't know you were gay"

Never had Sasuke told such a stupid lie. The truth was he truly wanted Naruto. He was just scared of what would happen afterwards. What would Naruto think of him? Was Naruto truly interested in him or was he charmed just like any vampire's victim? He didn't want that... He didn't want fake and meaningless sex. Sasuke wanted real love from Naruto. Not some manufactured pleasure that his vampire side provided. If it meant he'd have to wait a little while longer. That he'd gladly do so.

Naruto growled and flicked him off.

"No thank you" Sasuke said coolly. "Men aren't my type"

That was the biggest bunch of bullshit Naruto had ever heard...

"Then what was with all that crap that your brother was saying!?" Naruto bellowed. "You had a lover didn't you!? I don't think it was a she right!?"

Sasuke stared at Naruto with a blank expression. He had been paying attention? Had he figured it out? Oh crap, if he found out this wouldn't be good...

"You heard him say that?" Sasuke asked Naruto softly.

Naruto was a little taken about at Sasuke's reaction. He hadn't expected him to act like that. He nodded slowly. "How couldn't I? He was saying it right in front of me" Naruto said. "What I don't get is... who was your lover then? Why was your brother saying it like your lover was there if it was only us?"

Sasuke could feel his heart drop. Looking away from Naruto he tried to play it cool. "Stop asking stupid questions" Sasuke told him. "I don't owe you any kind of explanation regarding that."

Naruto felt like a dumb ass at that moment. Why did he ask such a question if it reminded Sasuke of something painful? It confused him to no bounds but still, why did he ask?

Feeling obligated to patch things up Naruto walked over to Sasuke and sat on the bed as he then quickly wrapped his arms around Sasuke's neck. Holding the other in a warm and tight embrace Naruto couldn't help but feel like apologizing.

"I'm sorry..." Naruto whispered. "I had no right to ask that."

Naruto's actions confused Sasuke to no extent. But he was thankful for it. Wrapping his arms around the blonde he held him close.

"It's fine" Sasuke said. "It's all in the past... One hundred and nineteen years in the past..."

They remained holding each other for a while. Until Sasuke began to chuckle.

"You sure you're not trying to pull a fast one and have sex with me?" Sasuke asked deviously.

Those words repeated in Naruto's mind and he tried to pull away, feeling outraged that Sasuke would think such a thing of him.

Of course, Sasuke didn't let him.

"I'm kidding" Sasuke said softly as he continued to hold onto Naruto. "I wouldn't really care if you did"

That much was true, he loved the idea.

Naruto patted his back.

"I'm not that heartless to take advantage of someone while they're feeling depressed"

"So you really would like to have sex with me then?"

"..."

Naruto felt like hitting himself. First, Sasuke was right. Second, he was horny. And third, there was nothing he could do about it.

"Go die" Naruto told Sasuke bitterly.

"I've tried" Sasuke huffed. "I'm a vampire. It never really works out."

A bitter emotion swept over Naruto. He could tell Sasuke was being serious. Although, it pained him to actually think that Sasuke would try to take his own life.

"Why would you do something so stupid?" Naruto asked. "Wouldn't your dear old lover be pissed to find out that you tried to kill yourself?"

A ting of jealously fell onto the word lover as Naruto said that. He couldn't help but feel mad at the fact that Sasuke had someone he loved.

Sasuke chuckled as he noticed this.

"I don't know. You tell me" Sasuke spoke.

Naruto stayed silent as he didn't quite understand what Sasuke meant. Naruto's an idiot remember? He hadn't quite figured it out now had he?

An awkward silence fell upon them.

"Thanks..." Sasuke finally stated. "For saving me"

Naruto didn't understand what he was talking about. Sasuke had saved him.

"I would have died if you just left me laying there" Sasuke continued.

"It was the least I could do... After just letting your brother do all of that to you" Naruto stated in a depressed tone.

"I've had worse" Sasuke said dully.

"But - "

"Just shut up won't you? You're ruining the moment."

"..."

"You're so obedient" Sasuke chuckled.

"Fuck off" Naruto grumbled.

"At least you didn't leave me there like my so called friends"

"I've been wondering about that... Why the hell didn't they take care of you!?"

"I don't know... I guess they figured I was better of being taken care of - "

Wait... That made perfect sense now. Could they have figured that Sasuke would in fact get closer to Naruto and vise versa if they were together?

Those smart bastards...

Sasuke would have to thank them later.

"What?"

"They're just assholes" Sasuke lied. "Would you mind coming with me to visit them so I can bitch properly for being abandoned?"

Naruto pulled away from Sasuke's chest slightly and looked him in the eyes.

"Er... Okay?"

Sasuke smirked and patted Naruto's head.

"Thanks" Sasuke said.

His plan was working out rather well. Sasuke had to make sure that he stayed with Naruto and manage to work himself into Naruto's heart before telling him the truth. After all, he couldn't risk losing Naruto again. He wouldn't bare stand such a thing. He wasn't about to throw everything away like that. He had waited one hundred years for Naruto to be reincarnated. He spent nineteen years following Naruto around and taking care of him. His efforts wouldn't go to waste. Sasuke was going to get what he wanted. Just a matter of time until he did...
