Since Gaara had no where to sleep he stayed over at Naruto's apartment, but only on the couch. The next day, Naruto woke up to yelling in his living room.

"shut up! Why are you here anyways?"

"hey….Naruto invited me to sleep over….what about you? You just come storming in like you own the place" that was Gaara's voice definitely.

"uhhhhhhh…..what are you yelling about?"

"naruto…..tell sasuke to get out of your house"

"whoa whoa whoa…..you are the creepy stalker that's sleeping in his house"

"gahh….both of you shut up……Gaara is staying cause he doesn't have a place to stay and Sasuke is staying cause…….cause…….why are you here?"

"today's training was called off so the fan girls are back and hunting me down"

"that's you own damn fault……leave Naruto out of your issues."

Naruto, finally fed up with both of them, went into the kitchen to get some breakfast. Gaara was the first to come in and help Naruto, closely followed by Sasuke. Just as Naruto finished his breakfast, the doorbell rang.

"hi Naruto. How are you this morning?"

"what are you talking about, Sakura?"

"well…..since its our day off, I thought I'd come and hang out with you…..you don't mind if I come in do you?? Thanks"

Without waiting for a response, Sakura burst through the door and started looking around the apartment almost as if she were looking for something….or someone.

"so, Naruto, have you seen Sasuke today?" Sakura asked as she peeked into the kitchen.

"no...i haven't"

"I have," replied the dark emo kid from the bedroom. Gaara didn't want to cover for Sasuke seeing as how they were after the same thing.

"oh…..where?" Sakura asked with a lot of spunk.

"uh….um…..actually we did see him…..he was…..uh……at…..the bridge….he said he was gonna go train," Naruto said with a good cover up.

"oh….ok……I guess I'll go…..bye"

Of course the minute Sakura was out the door, Sasuke appeared through the back door. He strode purposefully towards Gaara, grabbed him by the collar and pushed him against the nearest wall.

"whoa whoa whoa guys……calm down," Naruto said weakly.

"no, I'm sick and tired of this guy acting like he owns you," Gaara said with hate.

"shut up….you act like he's you pet….why don't you do us all a favor and go play with some dirt," Sasuke retorted equally mad.

"hey…..what the hell are you guys talking about?" Naruto asked dumbly.

Sasuke flung Gaara to the opposite wall and walked in front of Naruto.

"Naruto……i…I don't know how to say this"

Sasuke gave up trying to describe his feelings so he just leaned down and gently touched his lips against Naruto. It was a soft kiss that represented all that Sasuke felt towards Naruto. Sasuke started to pull back after a minute of no response but Naruto leaned in to deepen the kiss. Sasuke's tongue darted out and rubbed against Naruto's soft lips. In response, those soft lips parted slightly. Sasuke's tongue flickered in and explored the mesmerizing taste of Naruto, a mix of ramen and a sort of cherry flavor. At this exact moment, Sakura burst back into the apartment.

"aha……I knew you were hidin-…………..NARUTO…….WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO SASUKE?! GET OFF HIM….GOD, YOU FREAK!!!!!!! HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY SASUKE"

"but….I didn't…..he…..but you…..sigh"

Naruto gave up trying to explain as Sakura yanked Sasuke away and started hugging him. Gaara stood up from his position on the floor after seeing the whole scene unfold. He went to stand beside Naruto.

"come on, Sasuke, we're leaving"

Before Sasuke could retort, she dragged him outside and slammed the door.

"what just happened, Gaara?" Naruto asked in an innocent voice.

"well….Sasuke….he admitted that he….he….." Gaara couldn't stand to finish the sentence because he knew that he had lost the battle.

"………….so…then….sakura came in and thought I was the one molesting Sasuke?"

"yep……you really like him don't you?"

"I think so…..i'm sorry"

"What are you sorry for? I was just worried that you might get hurt by him but I guess there's nothing I can do but sit back and watch."

"awwww…..thanks, Gaara"

Meanwhile, Sakura drags Sasuke out to the woods and starts brushing him off almost as if she was trying to erase Naruto.

"stop it, Sakura," Sasuke said in a low voice, "leave me alone……stay out of my business"

"but…..but Naruto kidnapped you and was molesting you"

"no he wasn't……first off, I went to his house cause I didn't want to deal with you and your fan club…..secondly, I kissed him."

"uh….but…..sasuke…..that…..can't be"

Sasuke gave an angry look and stalked off to his own house leaving sakura with a lost expression.

"hmph…..that can't be…..it just can't be…..Naruto is behind Sasuke acting weird……I swear, I will get sasuke to love me…..i just have to get rid of a certain pest."

A mischievous grin appeared on Sakura's face as she thought of what she could do to hurt Naruto and win back Sasuke.
