The first time he realized that he didn't know how to live without Naruto was when he first arrived at Orochimaru's layer.
He arrived at Orochimaru's layer all battered and bruised and barely able to walk. Outside he was met by Kabuto and his sickly fake smile. "Well hello there," he said.
"I'm not in the mood," answered Sasuke.
"You're late," Kabuto said making a gesture for Sasuke to follow him.
"I'm here," he growled.
"Well Orochimaru wants to see you," said Kabuto.
"Are you going to take me to him or are you going to talk all day," he hissed.
"Of course," Kabuto smiled. As they walked Sasuke could feel all the eyes on him. He hated it, but he knew that sooner or later they would get bored and leave him alone as they always did.
When they arrived at the room there was even more people. "Welcome Sasuke," Orochimaru said in his freaky way. All the people around him were smiling crookedly, and Sasuke wished they would stop staring at him. "You're late Sasuke," Orochimaru said.
"As I've been told," Sasuke growled.
"Oh come now Sasuke. There's no need for you to be in such a bad mood."
"I'm tired, and I'm injured, and I don't like you," Sasuke anwered.
"Ah," said Orochimaru, "That is true," he gestured to some of the people next to him, "We can't let you die from those wounds? You'll never get strong that way."
A nurse came straight at him with what he assumed was supposed to be a seductive smile. "Will you come with me?" she said blinking her eyes prettily.
Sasuke rolled his eyes and followed her into a hallway behind Orochimaru that he hadn't seen before. She led him past many doorways until finally she turned and opened one to reveal a brightly lit room with a bed that was surrounded by a curtain and a cabinet that was filled with some of the most common medicines. It reminded him of the clinic at his ninja school before he graduated. Sasuke scowled at the remembrance of his past before he promptly pushed it to the back of his mind determined to keep it there until he had the strength to dispel it from his memories for good.
The woman asked him to sit down onto the bed which he did. "Will you take off your shirt?" she asked, but when he winced trying to lift it above his head she tried to say very seductively, "or I can take it off for you."
"Stay away from me or I will cut your head off," he growled at the girl. She gasped and moved back, but she still stared at him with loving eyes. When he finally got the shirt over his head the girl stood in her place staring at his muscular chest. "Are you going to help me or not?" growled Sasuke after a moment's waiting. At this she jumped and ran closer to him. She immediately started healing his wounds and Sasuke was actually surprised at how much damage Naruto had caused.
Over the next few days, as he stayed in that medical room, he had many visitors that he had never even seen before. Many of them were fangirls coming to ask him out, but others were men either coming to confess the admiration for his skills or their jealousy of Orichimaru's like of him.
He kept waiting for the people to get bored of him like they usually did back in his home town, but they never did. That's when he remembered that the only reason people stopped paying attention to him so much is because Naruto always tried to take away the attention. Naruto had always wanted the attention that he got so now that Naruto wasn't there he had no one to take the attention from him. Now how was he supposed to get away from all of there eyes? This was also the first time that he ever missed Naruto.
