Teehee! New Chappie! =] Gotta love the summer! Fast updates!

Disclaimer: Do not own Naruto. Nuh uh…nope.

You Only Disappear

I walked slowly through the streets of Konoha with my hands in my pockets. To an onlooker it looked quite odd since I usually had a smile on my face and was wrecking havoc on an unsuspecting person. However lately it was the exact opposite.

"NARUTO!"

I turned around and saw Sakura running towards me waving her hand. I stopped as she stood in front of me with a smile on her face.

"Haven't seen you around. Where've you been?" she questioned me. I shrugged nonchalantly and looked away.

"Home,"

"Oh…well uh, do you wanna hang out?"

"Aren't you supposed to be at the hospital?"

"I have the day off," she beamed at me. I forced a smile onto my face as she said that knowing that she almost never had the day off. It was a miracle when she did.

"Okay where are we off to?"

"I just wanna spend time with you and talk," she told me. I turned back the way I was walking and shoved my hands back in my pocket as she tagged along beside me.

We walked in a comfortable silence all the way towards the forest near the training ground that I pretty much destroyed yesterday. I sat down at a nearby tree as Sakura sat across from me. I looked off to the side letting my mind wander since she wasn't saying anything and she did say she wanted to talk.

"A few years ago you would have been harassing me with questions and jumping up and down because you got to be alone with me," she laughed. I looked back at her and smiled remembering how stupid I had been with the whole "I love Sakura" quip.

"Yeah, hah I probably would have fainted by now," I laughed which made her smile. Don't get me wrong, Sakura was utterly beautiful now just as she was before. She had grown into a stunning young woman and any guy would be lucky to have her…save they didn't get her mad.

"He's lucky,"

I raised an eyebrow in question as she said that and wondered if she was pulling my leg or being truly genuine and serious.

"What are you talking about?" I questioned her smirking.

"You have grown so much Naruto. You were always strong willed and head strong and you have surpassed everybody's wildest dreams. You never let anything bring you down or let yourself get discouraged and it's quite…admirable. Sasuke…to have a person like you in his life is amazing for him. You balance him completely,"

"I'm not to sure of that anymore,"

"Come off it Naruto. You know you still have feelings for him," she told me smiling. I glanced at her and saw how she seemed genuinely happy and I couldn't fathom WHY. Why did everybody want us two to get back together? What was in it for them?

"That part of my life is good and gone," I responded her and looked away. She scoffed which made me narrow my eyes in her direction again and I saw how she burst into fits of laughter.

"You two are the most stubborn boys I have ever MET. I knew you guys had feelings for each other for the longest…EVERYONE did. But you two were so dense and couldn't realize that what you guys took for that rivalry and constant tension everybody else around you knew it was just sexual. You guys are made for each other. When are you gonna see that?"

"Uchiha is so used to everything going his way. He's used to everybody bowing down to him and giving him exactly what he wants. I'm not doing it anymore…giving into him. If he truly wants me back…then he's going to have to say the one thing he never will,"

"And what is that exactly?"

"Why would I tell you? You just might go back and tell him," I told her with a smile. Sakura rolled her eyes as we both stood up at the same time.

"I gotta go. Part of his house arrest is that I have to check on him 3 times a week,"

"Yeah I know that. I gotta go to. Need to go see Lee," Sakura said with a smile. I said my goodbyes and took off towards the Uchiha complex with Sakura's words buzzing through my head. If we were truly meant for each other…then why did he leave me alone?

I got to his house and walked up the pathway to his door and knocked on the door silently praying that this time the idiot bastard had enough sense to wear a fucking shirt. The door opened to reveal the brunette wearing a black v-neck shirt which probably had the Uchiha fan on the back and baggy grey sweatpants.

"This must be a dream come true to have you on my doorstep once again,"

"I'm not here for a fucking visit. I'm here to do the check-in," I tell him with as much hostility dripping from my voice.

"Well then…come on in," he told me opening the door wide enough for me to enter into his house. I saw everything was pretty much the same from when he left. The black carpeting with the fan in the center of it in the living room. One red wall while the rest were white and the usual necessities. Looking over at the black couch in the center of the living room I couldn't help but be assaulted by images of the past.

"You really don't change anything much," I told him quietly. He nodded while smirking at me. I walked around the couch tracing my hand along the edge of it remembering the texture of it against my bare skin.

"Good times on that couch huh?" Sasuke's voice took me out of my trance as I glared at him and made my way towards the inside of the house.

"That's not what I'm here for,"

"Then what exactly are you here for?"

"You know what I'm here for dammit,"

"Then what does my house have anything to do with your inspection? You're like my 'parole officer'. You just have to make sure that I'm not violating my house arrest. So what does coming into my house have to do with it?"

"Hell if I fucking know. I just know that when I find it I will know what it is,"

"How about this…you're bored and have no idea what to do…and I need a good spar,"

"Did you actually just comment my ninja skills?" I questioned him raising an eyebrow while laughing.

"Let's go dobe,"

He started walking towards the back exit of his house which was a training ground and I allowed myself to wonder why I was becoming looser with him. I could not, under any circumstances allow myself to fall victim to him again. That was against the rules.

Sasuke stood a few feet away from me with his hands in his pocket while he readied himself and got himself oriented. I knew he had concealed weapons because we ninja were never unprepared. I shook my vest off and tossed it to the side leaving me only in my t-shirt.

"You know the rules. First one to be pinned," Sasuke shouted at me. I nodded and motioned for him to come forward but he was never the one to make the first move, I knew that for a fact. I charged at him and sent a kick towards his chest as he easily blocked it and sent me flying backwards to land on my hands and feet.

He charged forward and was getting ready to send a kick towards my chest to have me on my back but I grabbed his foot and twisted it so he landed on his hands and ended up kicking back with this other foot. I jumped backwards to avoid the hit and then jumped in another direction as I had a few kunai's aimed at my head.

I jumped into a tree and scaled it landing on a branch and hiding behind a particularly big bush while concealing my chakra from the person who was trying to hunt me down. I knew that he would find me sooner or later. He was particularly good when it came to tracking. I felt a rustle of the bushes and jumped out the way of a fireball that he sent straight towards me and jumped into a different tree much higher up.

I hopped from that one into a lower one and ran across the branches to a different tree. I saw something else coming my way and hopped down to the floor and against the trunk of tree where Sasuke was in front of me with a kunai to my throat.

I was breathing heavily and couldn't understand where he had come from but realized my defeat and shrugged. He had won and he knew it. Lowering the kunai slowly he kept his gaze locked onto my own and dropped the weapon on the floor. My eyes stayed locked with his own, even when he put both of his hands flat against the bark on either side of my head and stared at me quizzically.

He inched closer to me our noses almost touching as we breathed the same air. My breath hitched at seeing how close we were and I knew I should be pushing him back right about now, but every muscle in my body would not allow me to do it. Before I even knew anything Sasuke's lips descended on my own in a soft kiss.

He leaned into it not touching me in any way except for the lip contact that I was receiving. I wanted nothing more than to run my fingers through his hair but this was already bad. I could not give in this easily. I gripped his shirt in my hands and tugged a few times and finally pushed him off slowly with my hands softly resting on his chest.

"Stop…" I said unevenly feeling out of breath from the kiss and so out of character because I was usually the one to initiate them.

"What's wrong with this?" Sasuke questioned nuzzling the hair on my neck. I shuddered and pushed him back further looking anywhere but him.

"I can't do this,"

"Nar-,"

"No…no," I groaned out while clutching at his shirt which was purely contradicting what I was trying to say. He didn't say anything but kept his hands thankfully to himself. If he touched me I would have fallen apart at the seams right there.

"I would never hurt you intentionally. You do know that right?"

"No…I don't. You just disappear,"

"Like you're doing now. Naruto…you're here. I have you…and you want me. You can't say you don't. You just proved it right now,"

"I…I gotta go," I said trying to get away from him but he grabbed my cheeks in his hands and forced me to look him in the eye.

"I love you…more than anything," he whispered against my lips kissing me again. I shoved him away and ran from his training ground. I ran until my lungs burned from the fact that they needed air and I allowed myself to slow down to a walk. Falling against a building I put my head in my hands and groaned. I can't believe that I had kissed him…TWICE.

I started kicking at the ground angry at myself for giving in to his charm and grace. This was something I told myself I was NOT going to do. I couldn't fall for him again, and yet here I was captivated by him all over again. I felt the same way I had when I first started dating him and I did NOT like that feeling at all.

"Fuck…"

I got up from the floor slowly and made my way towards my house to write up that report for Tsunade knowing that she would want it soon. Once getting inside my house I didn't bother to take anything off and got down to writing the stupid report for her so that I could give it to her today and rest easy tonight. In the midst of writing my phone started to ring and I was suddenly afraid to answer it. I definitely did not want a repeat of yesterday, so I merely let it ring.

Finishing the report I took it and sealed it inside an envelope to take it to the woman who so nicely gave me this death sentence. I walked slowly towards Hokage Mountain not in any rush since it was only the afternoon and I knew she would still be there until later. I knew that I had only visited twice so far and that my report was supposed to be 3 days but I would tell Tsunade that this was detrimental to my health…yeah. That's exactly what I would tell her.

I got inside and waited to be let into her office and was greeted with her dozing on her desk as per usual. I sat down in the chair and jostled her desk to wake her as she did with a start and wiped the drool that was falling from her open mouth. She fixed a glare at me as I smiled back at her throwing the envelope on her desk.

"What are you doing here brat?"

"I have come to give you the two days that I have done an inspection on for the Uchiha complex. Consider this my resignation,"

"You can't resign," she told me laughing. I frowned and continued to look at said woman.

"What are you talking about 'I can't resign'? Of course I can. And I'm doing it now. Today was my last day,"

"As an order from the Hokage…you are not resigning Uzumaki,"

"Give me a reason why not then!" I growled angrily.

"You and the Uchiha both need this! You can both help each other!"

"FUCK helping each other! I just fucking kissed him and I am NOT going to go back out wit him!" I shouted rising from my chair. Realizing the stupidity of what I had just said I put my hand over my mouth and averted my eyes. Tsunade raised an eyebrow at me and started laughing.

"You are truly a piece of work. You refuse to work with somebody…because of the emotional ties you have to that person…but I already TOLD you that I will not let you get off of this because of your personal issues. Did I not?"

"Yes bu-,"

"What you do when you go and check in on Uchiha is none of my concern. Unless he is inflicting bodily harm to you, which I am sure would be a bit hard with all the ANBU and with what a qualified ninja you are, then I would allow you to resign. But that isn't the case is it?"

"No b-,"

"As you were Naruto," she told me cutting me off once again. I groaned knowing that I was going to get nowhere with the woman. I left her office grudgingly and walked towards my house with a frown set in place. There was no way that I was going to be able to deal with having to do this inspections on Sasuke and then have to battle down my feelings for him where were rising once again despite the fact that I did not want them to.

Finally getting to my house I walked inside and heard the phone ringing again. I didn't bother to answer it and went towards the shower to ease the tension in my muscles. The hot water that pelted my skin relaxed my mind and body and I smiled into the feeling of it. This was heaven in my opinion. Washing my body fully I got out of the shower and made my way towards my room to get dressed for bed since it was getting late. All the while the phone was STILL ringing in the background.

I changed into a clean pair of boxers and a black tank top and orange sleeping pants. I slipped my hat on and walked to the living room to pick up the cordless phone that was ringing off the hook and simply put it to my ear not giving any sort of greeting to show that I was listening.

"Dobe…"

"I knew it was you,"

"Why have you not been answering your phone?"

"I've been busy,"

"Bullshit,"

"How would you know? Are you stalking me?" I questioned agitated as I walked back towards my room to lie down in my bed so I could go to sleep after this call.

"I'm not stalking you…but what else would you have to do?"

"I do have a fucking life outside of you asshole,"

"Really now?"

"Is there a reason to this call?" I questioned angrily pulling the sheets up over me and lying on my side with the phone cradled between my shoulder and neck.

"Why so hostile? You seemed quite the opposite earlier,"

"You're tricking me into wanting to be with you again…and it's not going to work, I already told you that,"

"You sound so foolish,"

"Excuse me?"

"You wouldn't have kissed back if you truly felt that way,"

My face turned beet red as he said this and I shut my eyes in anger because he knew he was right.

"That has nothing to do with how I feel,"

"Just like how you're blushing right now?"

I growled lowly to myself because he knew me FAR to well for my liking.

"I am not blushing,"

"Tell me Naruto. You are lying down right now. In your bed, ready to go to sleep after this call, am I right? Do you like my voice to be the last thing you hear before you go to sleep?"

"Fuck you,"

"I think you do it much better than I do if I remember correctly. Your cock is quite huge,"

"You're not serious…"

"I miss it Naruto. You always knew how to please me,"

"Fuck off Uchiha,"

"I hope to see you again tomorrow,"

"I'm only required to come 3 times a week. What makes you think I'll come by tomorrow when I can come the day after tomorrow?"

"I know you will. You want to see me, I want to see you. You won't disappoint,"

"Maybe you need to be disappointed,"

I hung the phone up then not wanting to speak to him anymore after the last few comments that he made towards me and put the phone on my bedside table. This was ridiculous.

I rolled over to my other side and tried to fall into sleep without thinking of the Uchiha. Too bad that he was the only thing in my thoughts now 24/7.

There you are. Another chapter for your liking. I hope you all enjoyed it! =] Don't forget to review please! They bring me grave inspiration!
