Beta'ed by Appearing From The Shadows(Thanks allot! =])

Anyways on with it then...

1+1=Was I wrong?

Sasuke wanted to get over this slump he was in, but no matter how many times he tried his mind kept going back to Naruto. He knew punishing himself wasn't going to solve anything, and no matter how many times he wanted to go to Naruto to just explain, he couldn't. How could he? Naruto made it clear before then that he wanted Sasuke to stop coming.

Sasuke wanted to curse, shout, and do anything that would make the lonely feeling go away. Allot of people would think money should make him happy, but it didn't and if anything it took his happiness away. Because all people see is his money. Sasuke could treat anyone like shit and they would brush it off because they believed the money was worth it. Money was worth the abuse and pain they would go though; just to climb to the top of the food chain. Sasuke didn't want that, he never wanted that.

He felt something with Naruto, something he never felt with anyone, not even Ruckie. It could be that Naruto never cared about who he was or what he has, all Naruto ever saw was him. It killed Sasuke to think he would have to give up. He couldn't! Not when he finally found what he's been looking for. All the painful empty nights he would sit awake and ask himself what he was doing wrong, sometimes thinking he was being too picky. But to Sasuke it wasn't about pickiness, he just didn't want to settle.

Sasuke didn't care that Naruto had no legs, and that many parts of his body were damaged beyond repair. He didn't care. He would never care about something like that. Sasuke's eyes ached as he continued to look out his bedroom window. His phone vibrated before it rang, and as he looked over Sasuke saw that it was Neji. He had half a mind not to answer, he just wanted life to stop being a roller coaster ride just for awhile.

"Yes." Sasuke wasn't in the mood to even act civil with people today.

"I was just calling to ask are you still coming with us. To the concert I mean." Sasuke had forgetting about the Linkin Park concert that was happening tonight. It was surprising considering he's been looking forward to it for two months now.

"Ah, yeah sure." He might as well, since he had nothing better to do. Sasuke needed to get his mind off of Naruto somehow, so he figured thay maybe this was the way to do it.

"Okay, everyone meeting up at seven." Sasuke gave a grunt as a response before hanging up.

1+1=?

Naruto knew he did the right thing by pushing Sasuke away, well it felt right at the time. But now he just didn't know. A part of him felt wrong and empty. He never meant to be so hard on Sasuke; he just didn't know what to do. Sasuke was making him feel things he's long since stop feeling for others. The nonjudgmental stare was starting to break his walls. He couldn't let Sasuke to do it, because one day Sasuke will see who he really is, and Naruto couldn't face that day or live though it.

But he couldn't lie to himself, not anymore. Not with everything that happened. He missed Sasuke; it was as simple as that. He just missed everything about him, Sasuke being around just felt to right to be true. He just couldn't live with himself if he held Sasuke back.

Naruto finally felt truly alone, he already thought he was but having Sasuke around changed that. Everything he was doing was for Sasuke sake, whether Sasuke knew it or not.

No longer having Sasuke around Naruto started to do things for himself. He started out washing himself, it was difficult at first. Getting in and out the tube was one of the harder things, and he figure he will sooner or later have to get bars installed. Making his own food was easier, but he will soon have to go grocery shopping. Not that he minded eating roman noodles every day. He was just wanted something new for a change.

Naruto sighed, remembering that he had forgotten something he had to do today. He had therapy today at six thirty, he had a half of mind not to go. Naruto didn't think some know it all doctor is going to change him. Everyone just didn't understand that he just wanted to be alone. He didn't feel right in this world anymore, but he wasn't going to kill himself for it.

Sighing Naruto looking around the room for something to wear, he really needed to go food shopping. He settled for a navy blue and orange jacket with navy blue pants. Naruto wasn't looking forward to going out, but at this point it couldn't be helped. Pulling his wheelchair over to him, Naruto begins the tedious task of getting into it. It wasn't easy it never was as far as Naruto could tell, having to struggle with it every time made him want to not leave the house.

Finally seating himself Naruto ran his hands over his pockets looking for his watch. He found it in his left pocket, it was five thirty already. Naruto pocketed the watch as he gave frustrated sigh, he would have to go shopping after the therapy. Naruto searched around the apartment for his key before finally realizing Sasuke still had them, Sasuke has been taking them to get in. Naruto didn't think his day could get any worse, well at least he hoped it couldn't. He locked the door from the inside, figuring he could get the land lady to open the door for him when he came back.

Therapy was just...odd for the lack of a better word. Naruto didn't know what to make of it as he sat in front of, Iruka, since that doctor apparently felt old with his last name. Naruto didn't mind, he didn't like being called by his last name either. Iruka from what Naruto could tell was a really nice guy, he was soft spoken as well as humble. Naruto didn't mind listening to him. He didn't want to speak to anyone for the matter.

Iruka talked though the whole session about how he wanted Naruto to come out his shell. Not like Naruto hasn't heard similar things from others, like Sasuke. Sasuke… There it was again, Naruto kept trying to keep himself focused on other things other than Sasuke. He did wonder if Sasuke finally forgot about him, which should be a good thing. It didn't feel good though.

Naruto let Iruka talk as his mind wondered to different things, things he shouldn't even be thinking about. Sasuke had kissed him, and he had kissed back. Does that make me and Sasuke gay? Naruto thought as he watched Iruka's animated movement, hearing the words without really listening.

He didn't think he was gay, but was Sasuke? But that didn't seem right either. Sasuke didn't look gay, maybe a little emo but not gay. What would I know about that? Naruto shook his head, he wouldn't know anything. He didn't know Sasuke; he chased him away before he could.

"Naruto? Did you hear me?" Naruto blinked looking over, his mind was so far gone that he didn't hear Iruka speaking to him.

"Ah? Sorry, no. what did you say?" Iruka studies him for a minute raising an eyebrow.

"I said this session is done for the day, I'll see you next Saturday." Iruka looked worried as Naruto finally started to move in order leave, Naruto pretend not to notice as he wheeled himself out.

1+1=?

It took Sasuke thirty minutes to convince Itachi to take him to the concert, Itachi wasn't exactly pleased with the fact that Sasuke had taken his car before. Sasuke had hoped Itachi had forgotten about that, but that seemed like too much to ask. Sasuke had a feeling Itachi knew he was still down and that's the only reason he agreed, not that he was complaining about that.

But that drive itself was really awkward to say the least. Itachi had something on his mind, with the way he kept glancing over now and then. Sasuke for the life of him couldn't understand why he couldn't talk to his brother; it wasn't that Itachi wasn't understanding. No that wasn't it...he just didn't want to disappoint him. If anyone opinion really mattered to him it would be Itachi's. Itachi always had great faith in him for some reason.

Neji, Shikamaru, Choji, Ino and Sakura were already waiting when Itachi rounded the corner. Sasuke wanted to groan after seeing Sakura there also, he knew she wasn't on the invite list before so why was she there now? As long as she kept her distance he would actually get out the car and meet up with them, instead of telling Itachi to hurry up and drive away before they noticed. But being who she was Sakura could smell him three thousand miles away, since she was the one that spotted him first.

Itachi pulled the care to the side allowing Sasuke to finally step out. Sasuke mumbled the concert would be done at ten as he closed the door. Sasuke felt the car jerk away before he even started walking. Turning he saw the car whip around the corner out of sight. Weird, in a hurry much? Shaking his head Sasuke walked over to the small group.

"Are we going in or what?" Sasuke asked already walking past the silent group. The music bumped in the stadium as they made their way over, Sasuke could feel the headache starting as he saw Saukra's continuous glances. He kept his distance walking along side Neji, who shot him a questionable nod as he caught Sasuke's eye. Shaking his head Sasuke continued to walk to the ticket booth.

Being at a place such as this they would have to stand the whole time, it wasn't that Sasuke minded standing. No. It was the fact that the people around him that was singing along (bad singing by the way) kept bumping into him. Sasuke was at his limit as Sakura shyly touched him again. Sasuke wanted to sing and bump to his favorite song Numb, but no that was too much to ask for once again.

As the night continued Sasuke was ready to leave and get home, but before he could shake his hand in a general direction and leave Neji came up to him. After the awkward confession Sasuke had been trying to keep his distance, he told himself it was for Neji's own good. But the truth was he just didn't want to deal with the situation, he didn't want Neji to like him in that way. Sasuke just wanted his kind of best friend back. Sasuke watch as Neji mouth the words to follow him, raising his brow Sasuke sighed. He wished he knew what Neji wanted with him this time. Sasuke hoped that it wasn't turning into another awkward confession.

Sasuke none the less did follow, he was leaving anyways. Neji lead the way to the front of the stadium, weaving past people as he did. Sasuke didn't bother walking past people as he followed. Whoever was in his way was pushed not even stopping when some people say hey or what the fuck man. They walked to the nearby parking lot. Sasuke stopped as he leaned against a car that was parked there. Sasuke wanted this to be over and done with as soon as possible.

"Well?" Sasuke asked in a bored tone. He watched as Neji cast him a glance. Sasuke knew something was on Neji's mind and whatever it was bothering him.

"I know what you said before, but I really want you to give us a try. I know I can make you happy." Sasuke tried to keep his face passive as he let Neji talk, but he was tired of people thinking they can make him happy. He didn't want them to make him happy, they never could they didn't even know him. Sasuke most of all didn't want people to make him happy; he just wanted to be happy from being with that person.

"Neji my mind has not changed." Sasuke didn't want to be having this convocation again, if anything he thought he made himself clear when he said he was not interested the first time around.

"But you won't even give me a chance. I just want one chance, if you don't like it break up with me." Neji had moved up cornering Sasuke on the car, Sasuke could smell him and he had to admit Neji smelled good.

"I'll think about it, okay?" Sasuke said finally, he guessed it wouldn't hurt having date or two. But he couldn't help but think he was cheating on Naruto, when in fact Naruto was the one that didn't want him.

Once again his thoughts are back to Naruto, what was he doing? Is he okay? Did he miss him? Sasuke closed his eyes and pinched his nose; he didn't bother saying goodbye as he walked away from Neji who was still standing unmoving. Maybe dating Neji would be a good thing and help him get over Naruto. But he couldn't decide until he got his head straight, he didn't want to be using Neji just to make himself feel better.

But was really waiting on Naruto the right thing to do? When Naruto made it ever so clear he didn't want anything to do with him. Sasuke couldn't help but be pissed off from the rejection; it was something he wasn't use to getting from people. But he knew he had to move on, he wouldn't make Naruto feel the way he did, even though he wanted to try. If there was some shooting star he could use, he could in a heartbeat. Sasuke knew that was a lie he wouldn't do that to Naruto, it wasn't right. He just wished his feeling were returned. He didn't want to force it on him.

Sasuke walked aimlessly deep in thought, when did he become so...different. He continued walking. Itachi would be there in an hour if Sasuke was lucky. Sasuke just didn't want to do back with everyone, they couldn't see he was hurting and Neji was only making it worse with his need to tell Sasuke his feelings. Pulling out his phone Sasuke looked at the time and found one miss call. A part of him knew better to get his hopes up when he thought that it might have been Naruto. Naruto never called him before why would he start now?

He couldn't bring himself to look. frustrated with his feelings Sasuke put the phone back into his pocket. Making his way down the narrow block Sasuke spotted a semi-empty café, it was a new place Sasuke had seen once before. It was better than walking around aimlessly.

The café was friendly with the soft playing classical music; the lights were dim only having hanging lights illuminated the tables. Sasuke picked a table closes to the window, making sure he was away from the other occupants that were sitting some tables away. Sasuke folded his hands in front of himself as he waited for someone to take his order, he was a little annoyed with the way the happy couple a few feet away from him giggled constantly. It sickened him. Sasuke wanted nothing more than to walk over there tip over there table an-...

"Can I get you anything sir?" Sasuke didn't notice the waiter walk over, to engross in figuring out a way to set the happy couple on fire.

"Ten double chocolate chip cookies, the biggest you have and...a hazelnut coffee. Sasuke had half of mind to order ten muffins too. Maybe he could eat himself happy. Well not happy but less...this feeling.

The waiter came back setting the steaming cookies down on the table with Sasuke's drink. Sasuke started eating as soon as the waiter left, digging into the creamy cookies. With one bite Sasuke remember something important. He hated sweets. Sitting the cookie back down with the others, he will give them to Itachi. Itachi loved sweet things and would gladly eat the cookies. So eating himself better was out of the question it seems.

Sasuke reached into this pocket to look at the time, only to remember he hadn't listen the message. Finally pushing the bottom Sasuke listen. Sasuke didn't understand why it felt like this message was something that was going to change his life if he listened to it.

"You have one new message from 515 789 90- Sasuke pulled the phone away trying to remember whether or not he knew that number. -at seven o'five, new message...

"Ahh...I...fuck." The line went dead, Sasuke replayed it over and over making sure he heard right. There was allot of static in the back ground making it really hard to hear anything, it almost sound like rain. From what he gathered the voice on the other line was Naruto's but Sasuke couldn't be sure, but a part of him really hoped it was. But what if he was wrong, but more importantly what if he was right and Naruto wanted to speak to him?

Sasuke wasn't sure what to make of it, but what he did know was that he couldn't takes rejection again. Was he willing to push the message aside never knowing? Sasuke just didn't know but he just might have to.

1+1=?

Naruto placed the phone down, he couldn't do it when he make it clear to himself that he was doing the right thing. He couldn't just change his mind now, he was just feeling so down and out, but most of all he was broken.

Day after day of feeling so alone, Naruto found the piece of paper Sasuke had wrote his number on. It was crumbled at the side of the bed. Naruto flattened it hoping to get the wrinkles out. A part of him was disappointed that Sasuke didn't pick up, not giving him the chance to hear Sasuke's unforgettable voice again. Some nights Naruto would hear Sasuke but knew he wasn't there if he open his eyes, so he didn't open them. He never did he just wanted to pretend Sasuke was indeed there.

Another part of him was glad Sasuke didn't pick up. He didn't have any idea as to why he was calling in the first place. Naruto was just looking at the number when his hand moved on its own and picked up the phone and started dialing Sasuke. But most of all he missed Sasuke, and he couldn't help himself but to ask. Was he wrong?

Maybe Sasuke didn't need to gain something from being with him. Sasuke never asked anything of him. Naruto couldn't help but feel wrong. That he was just afraid Sasuke would leave him one day and never even glance back. He was afraid of getting hurt, so he did the only thing he could. Naruto pushed the only person who could hurt him away.

1+1=?

I really wanted it to be longer than this, but as the same time I don't want to rush it. I was thinking to make a drama with Sasuke and Neji dating for awhile, but I just can't bring myself to like other authors can. It doesn't feel right and I can't stand other pairing even if it was for a little while, but I don't know. As of now it up in the air and I might just have to do it. R&R!
