Chapter 4:
Naruto walked towards the Uchiha compound in deep thougths, not really knowing what to say or do now that Tsunade had finally allowed him to see Sasuke.
He had just been informed, and just knew he had to go see him at once.
As ho got closer, he could feel Sasuke's familiar chakra signature, moving around in his house. 'Good, He's home' Naruto thought.
He held his Anbu mask in his hands, not sure if he should go in there as himself or the Anbu first. 'Maybe it's better to go as an Anbu first, so I can get a feeling on his mood.'
He put on his mask, and walked the last few meters towards Sasuke's door.

Sasuke could not decide wether he should go looking for the blond, or wait and see if the blond would come to him now that they were allowed to see eachother again.
He was pacing around the house, trying to decide when a soft knock was heard.
Sasuke was at the door in a blink, ripping the door open.
"Nar... Oh, it just you." Sasuke had hoped it was Naruto, but he was staring at the fox-masked Anbu instead. "Why are you here?"
"I heard you were allowed to see the Uzumaki kid again." Naruto answered. "So I was wondering why you just stay at home. I had the impression that you wanted to see him again."
Sasuke sighed. "Yeah, but I'm not sure if he wants to see me"
The Anbu just stood there, and Sasuke could almost feel the confusion coming from him.
"Like I said before; He would'nt let even the Hokage stop him from seeing me if he really wanted to."
The Anbu just laughed at that, and now Sasuke was the confused one.
"What's so damned funny all of a sudden?" He demanded.
The Anbu calmed down, and said: "Just that the Uzumaki actually did want to see you, I should know."
Sasuke shot him a skeptical look, and to his surprise the Anbu started taking off the mask.
"Naruto! You were the Anbu all this time?" Sasuke shouted, a little angry. "Why the hell did you hide this from me?"
Naruto stared into Sasuke's eyes, and answered truthfully: "Because that was the only way Tsunade would let me see you." He looked away before continuing. "I have been to her office every day since I brought you back, begging her to let me face you without the Anbu mask."
Sasuke stared back, but remained silent.
He turned, and walked back into his apartment, leaving the door open. Naruto followed him inside, and sat down next to him on the couch.
"Sasuke.." he started, a little scared.. "Sasuke.. Are you mad at me for bringing you back here?"
Naruto just stared at the floor, to nervouse to look up at his friend.
'I don't know what I'll do if you are, you're my.. My special person' he thought.
"No, dobe. I'm not angry you brought me back." Sasuke finally said, "I'm angry I had to wait so long for us to be able to talk."
Naruto relaxed abit at that. "I missed you, Sasuke." He admitted, a slight blush on his face.
"I missed you to, Dobe." the answer came instantly. "Even if I lied to myself, saying I hated you."
After that, they sat there, talking. They told eachother about all that had happened in their years apart. Or at least a lot of it.
When Naruto left, after promising to see him the next day, Sasuke went to bed.
His last thought before falling asleep; 'I hope I can tell you how I feel someday'

"Hokage-sama!" Inuzuka Kiba yelled as he ran into her office. "Akatsuki members have been spotted near the village!"
"WHAT?" Tsunade shot up from her chair, "Shizune! Summon Neji, Kakashi, Shikamaru and Naruto! NOW! Kiba, you stay here!"
Shizune ran out the door to get the shinobi's she was asked.
15 minutes later, Naruto walked into her office, and found Shikamaru and Tsunade in heated discussions, as Kakashi sat in silence next to Kiba, a worried look on his face.
"Hey, Baa-chan. Why did you wanna see me?"
"Naruto, there you are. I'm afraid the Akatsuki are on the move, not far from here."
Naruto deadpanned. "The Akatsuki?"
After a slight nod in confirmation, he asked: "Do we know which of it's members it is?"
Tsunade sighed. "No, not for certain." Looking at Kiba, she added "But we have reason to belive it is Hoshigaki Kisame, and his partner, Uchiha Itachi.."
Naruto looked dumbfound. "Itachi? Why have you left Sasuke out of this then?"
"I want confirmation on their identitys before doing that, brat!" Tsunade said in harsh tones.
"Thats why Hyuuga Neji is currently out scouting for them."
Tsunade had sent him out while waiting for the other shinobi to appear.
*POFF*
Neji suddently appeared in the office. "The suspectes are indeed Uchiha and Hoshigaki, Lady Hokage"
Silence fell over the room, and Tsunade looked at Naruto. "Go, Naruto. Get Sasuke NOW, then meet the others at the gates."

Sasuke was sitting in his couch, when his door flew up, revealing a heavy breathing Naruto.
"Sasuke.. Now.. Come. Ita...* Naruto cut himself of to breath, before finishing. *Itachi is close, we're going after him!"
