Naruto took a deep breath and entered Sasuke's hospital room. Sasuke was laying on his back in the bed peacefully sleeping. His eyes just happened to stray down to the black necklace that was strapped around Sasuke's neck; the memories came back to him of what he had done. He quietly walked over to Sasuke's bed and placed his hand on the sleeping boy's arm in order to wake him.

Sasuke's eyes fluttered open and found his dark onyx eyes staring into the light liquid blue ones of Naruto. He moved away from the boy and stared up at him wit a mixture of pure anger, hate, and fear.

"W-what do you want?" Sasuke said with disgust.

Naruto said with a hint of anger in his voice "Giving you your clothes so I can bring you home teme!"

"Dobe."

"Hey, is that anyway to repay someone who saved your life?" he regretted it the minute the words left his mouth.

Sasuke laughed then quickly cut off the laughter and glared at him with hatred. "Saved my life? Saved my life! You tortured me for two weeks without mercy! You do one good thing to me and I have to repay you?"

"Well, sorry for beating you against my will!"

"Yeah, sure..." Sasuke mumbled not in the mood to fight.

"Fine. Here's your clothes, I'll be in the hallway waiting for you."

"Hn."

Minutes later Sasuke emerged from the room and met Naruto. He saw Naruto's backpack and was confused."

"What is that?" Sasuke asked pointing at the backpack like it was a disease.

"My stuff." Naruto replied plainly.

"Um, why?"

"Because I'm staying with you until they catch Zabuza."

"Why!"

"Kakashi is making me. I wouldn't be doing this on my own trust me. So to make this work we'll stay away from each other and not talk... at all... ever, okay?"

"Yeah sure."

They began walking to Sasuke's house. Sasuke was walking a little slower because of his injuries ad Naruto was far ahead of him. Naruto realized he had no idea where the house was. They reached the gates that led to where Sasuke lived and Naruto looked in shock. He had never ben to the Uchiha district and figured it was abandoned. He never expected anyone to actually live there. They entered though the gates and walked through several streets. Naruto let Sasuke lead this time because he did not want to get lost, especially not here. Naruto was surprised how massive and beautiful Sasuke' house was when they reached it. It was much better than his cramped one room apartment.

Sasuke unlocked the door, took off his shoes, and walked into the house; Naruto did the same. Sasuke walked up the stairs, down the hall, and entered his room, Naruto followed him until the door to Sasuke's room was slammed in his face. Naruto was furious, he barged into the room where Sasuke was laying on his bed staring at the ceiling.

"Teme! What am I suppose to do? Where do I sleep?" Naruto yelled.

"Find the room yourself dobe! Get the hell out of my room!" Sasuke yelled back.

Naruto slammed the door shut then stomped down the hall in search of the guest room. He found most of the doors to be locked for some reason that made him very, very, very curious. He wondered around and found an empty room across from Sasuke's bedroom. He entered wondering why he hadn't checked here before.

After he packed away his things he decided to explore the house starting with downstairs. He hound that everything in the house was neat and organized, and most of the things in the house was black, white, or red. Most of the door downstairs, just like the upper part of the house, were locked. But he also found out that he and Sasuke had quite a few things in common including, quite surprisingly, music and book. Naruto had always thought that they were completely different people.

It was getting late so Naruto decided to make himself some dinner. There was no ramen so he just scavenged up some of Sasuke's other foods. When he was some eating he watched television. At about ten o'clock he decided he should check on Sasuke.

Naruto slowly and quietly eased open the door to Sasuke's room and peeked inside. Sasuke was facing Naruto, laying on his side fast asleep. Naruto closed the door; he determine that now was a good time to explore one of those rooms.

He went to one of the many locked doors and began to pick the lock. It took more than five minutes but the door finally eased open; inside was about fifteen boxes. Naruto sat down and opened one of the boxes, inside there was dozens of pictures of Sasuke and his family. Sasuke was happy and smiling in all of them; he also found several pictures of Sasuke's mother, father, and brother. Naruto was so wrapped up in the pictures that he did not notice Sasuke in the doorway.

"What the hell!" Sasuke yelled startling Naruto, he had never heard him ell that loud... ever.

"Sasuke...,"

"Put the pictures down and get out."

"But-"

"No! Just get out!"

"Fine." Naruto got up and left the room.

Sasuke packed up the boxes, left the room ,and locked the door firmly behind him. Sasuke hound Naruto sitting on his bed in the guestroom playing with a pencil. Sasuke stood in the doorway and Naruto looked up at him.

"Sasuke I..." Naruto started but was cut off my Sasuke.

"You know that just because I hate you doesn't mean I don't trust you(1). But I can't even trust you now, so what's left?"

"I-I don't know."

"Neither do I." Sasuke walked back across the hall and into his room as Naruto watched. Naruto just laid down on the bed and eventually fell asleep.
