This is the fourth chapter. I hope you guys enjoy. If any one has any ideas on how you think my story should go, like a happy ending, or tragic in what not, tell me what you think!

'words like this' is Naruto's thoughts.

If you love someone, tell them. Because it's often that hearts are broken by words that are left unsaid.

Next day.

The blonde laid in his bed. He had a bad dream, a flashback, of the past. His mind replayed it over and over again. 'I can still feel his lips on mine.... The way he looked at me with love.... Was it even love?'

His stomach clenched together. He felt sick. Naruto leaned over the side of his bed to grab his pack of cigarettes. When he opened the pack, he only had one left. "Fuck." He lit the last one up and through the empty box down. He'd have to look at least half way descent if he was going to the store.

He walked into his bathroom, and what he saw in the mirror looked horrible. His eyes were bloodshot, he had dark rings under his eyes from not sleeping so well, and his hair was dull and flat. He looked like fucking shit.

He took a drag from the smoke stick and sighed, smoke slowly making it's way from his mouth. He flipped the ash in the toilet and sat up on top of his sink. The boy leaned over and put his head in his hands, palms to his forehead, cigarette still in his hand. A low groan escaped his lips. 'The feeling still won't go away.'

He finished the last of his stogie and dropped it in the toilet. He strode over to the shower and turned it on hot. He stripped off his pj's and boxers and stepped in. He hissed when the hot water hit his skin, but didn't bother to move. He just let the water run over his tanned skin.

'Sasuke..... Why did you have to do this to me? I don't want to feel like this anymore.... I'm done with it.....' The angelic blonde's eyes drifted close as he tried to let his body relax. The muscles that were strained were becoming less tense, the body ache fading.

When he got out of the shower he dressed in a pair of denim tight fitting jeans and threw on an orange T-shirt. He slide on his black chucks, swiped up his frog wallet, phone and house keys, and strode out the door.

As the boy was walking out of the store from buying a carton of ciggs, he opened a pack and lit one up. As he was walking and focussing on lighting the damn thing, he ran into someone as soon as he glanced up. He felt something hot burn the hell out of him, letting out a strain of curse words, he quickly backed up to wipe himself off. 'Who the fuck ran into me?'

As blue eyes looked up, they clashed with onyx ones. Apparently, he wasn't the only one that looked like shit today. Sasuke's skin was more pale, his under eyes seemed darker, and his hair wasn't so spiky. But what really stood out, was that he had a bruise, a rather black- blue looking one on the side of his jaw, and a busted lip.

"Sasuke? What the hell happened to you?" Blue eyes were wide, staring at the raven, waiting for an answer. Sasuke looked like he was debating what he should say.

"Don't worry about it." Came his cold response. Naruto just stared at him, eyes full of disbelief. 'Why the hell does he half to be like this?' The blondes expression changed to one hell of a pissed off look. "You know what? Why the fuck would I even ask anyways? You never give me a straight answer"

Naruto gripped his bag tighter, and just as he was about to walk past the Uchiha, a pale hand gripped his wrist. Ocean eyes looked down where the raven had ahold of him. He then glanced up to meet the other's glaze. 'What does he think he's doing?'

"I uh- Can I have a cig?" Sasuke asked. "Umm.... Sure." Naruto reached in his pocket and pulled out his open pack and popped one in his mouth, then handed one to Sasuke. They both lit them up at the same time.

"Sakura hit me." The raven said bluntly. Naruto broke out in a coughing fit because when he went to gasp at Sasuke's comment, he chocked on a mouth full of smoke. "Sh- she h-hit you? Why?"

"I told her to leave, to get the hell away from me." Sasuke took another drag and let the smoke calm his nerves before blowing it right back out. Naruto couldn't say anything, so he waited for the other to go on.

The Uchiha noticed this, and continued. "I didn't want her anymore. I realized I don't want someone like her. I want- I uh... I want you back. And when she found out that, she got pissed and hit me." Sasuke glanced at Naruto. The blonde was in deep thought. But when the raven cleared his throat, the other's thought train was broken. Blue eyes looked up.

'He wants me back? He hurt me, fucked me, left me, and now he wants me back? No... I can't do this. He doesn't love me......' "I don't believe you Sasuke. Every time I tried to ask you if we stood another chance, you always said you didn't know. So what made you come to the answer now?" His voice was quiet, but heard quite clear.

"I realized that I love you. I want you to be mine again, Naruto... Will you?" The Uchiha looked up with questioning eyes, a chance of hope gleamed through them. But when he saw ocean eyes, his hopes were dwindling away. Blue eyes were passive, rejecting, hurting, and filled with doubt.

"Prove it then. I'm not gonna be used again, I'm not going to let you run over me again, and I'm sure as hell not gonna be hurt by you again. I'm done with the fucking mind games. So... Prove it to me." Naruto flipped his cigarette to the road and walked away leaving a confused man left behind to figure it out by himself.

'I won't give in to him. I deserve better than that. I can't handle the pain. If it happens again a second time, I'm not sure I can take it.....' The blonde let out a lung full of smoke as he hit the 'Ignore' button on his cell. Sasuke has called him for the 5th time now. His heart was saying to answer, but his mind refused to let him.

'I won't let you hurt me.... Never again..... I won't let a dream cloud what's real. No.... Not this time. I won't be played....'

Love can cloud your judgment. It can cast a false reality. Love is a beautiful thing, at least until you see the real reality of it all.
