He heard a noise to his left and turned around only to be met with shocked blue eyes and a bare tan chest.
Shit- - -Sasuke whirled back around a little too fast to be normal in human eyes.
"I'm sorry, you could've just warned me"
He cringed- - -what else did he expect? A welcomed invitation? That obviously wasn't an option since the blonde was unable to speak. Maybe he should've just waited till the guy opened the door; yeah, that was a much better option.
Feeling a finger poke him on the shoulder, the vamp turned back around to a now fully dressed Naruto with a white board in his grasp.
"What are you doing here?" It said
"I came with my father. He's looking over some paperwork so I decided to come speak with you. Is that fine?"
The blonde gave him a smile as he nodded.
Sasuke scrutinized as he erased his whiteboard, only to write on it again-Didn't he get tired of using that board all the time?- - -wait, what was he thinking? How else would the guy communicate with others? Sign language would probably be a best option but not everyone understood it.
Naruto turned his board "Can we go to the garden to talk?"
Nodding in understanding, the vamp walked towards the door about to open it when suddenly a tan arm comes up and wraps itself around his own pale arm.
Sasuke froze- - -what in the human world is going on?He looked down at the blonde but Naruto just offered him a gentle smile- - -guess he could let it slide just this time, it wasn't everyday that a human attached themselves to him. Both human and vamp stepped out of the room, walking down the not so bright hallway as they made their way to the garden.
Sasuke felt somewhat relaxed being close to the blonde; listening to his heartbeat was...soothing. Coming to a stop in front of the glass doors, Sasuke opened them and let the blonde enter first, he followed behind as he put on his black sunglasses. Looking around he noticed that not too many patients were outside compared to the last time he visited; the flowers were just as beautiful though and the sun's light reflected beautifully around the area. He kept following Naruto until they came to a stop in front of a white bench next to a huge tree offering shade upon them. The blonde sat down, putting his whiteboard and marker on his lap before patting the empty space beside him- - -Sasuke was caught a bit off guard as those royal blue orbs looked at him, but he shook it off and sat down next to the offered space.
They sat in a comfortable silence, admiring nature at its finest. The vamp stole a glance at the blonde and nearly gasped- - -Naruto had his eyes closed, a beautiful smile splattered on his face as the fresh breeze hit him; he looked like a breathtaking piece of art in person with that beautiful glowing tan skin. Without taking his eyes off the blue eyed beauty he spoke up.
"It seems as though you enjoy coming here a lot"
Naruto shrugged-he opened his eyes and looked down, beginning to write on his board "Its peaceful, plus there's nothing else to do"
"You don't watch t.v?"
He shook his head "The t.v's don't work here" he wrote
"Well, you can always hang with your friends" Sasuke suggested
Blue eyes saddened "You're my only friend"
The vamp's mouth slightly opened at that statement- - -He's his only...? That's absurd, he thought the blonde would have at least made some friends in this hospital. He seemed like such a nice person; unlike himself.
Trying to lighten up the mood, he decided to change the subject by turning his gaze to the open garden.
"Does this place look beautiful at night as well?"
"I don't know, I don't leave my room late" the board said
Sasuke raised an eyebrow in question as he watched Naruto erase his sentence and write a new one.
"Sometimes at night, I can hear some of the patients screaming"
Sasuke read with a bit of interest-screams at night huh; he wondered what those doctors were up to around that time.
"Do you know why the patients scream?"
The blonde shook his head, showing him what he wrote "Deidara comes into my room at night to calm me down because they sound horrible"
"Deidara is your brother correct?"
Naruto nodded
"Why were both of you admitted into this hospital?"
Blue eyes gazed down gradually as if in thought. He looked as though he was about to write on his board before a voice was heard.
"Sasuke, there you are"
The vamp looked up, watching his father elegantly walk towards them with his black sunglasses on; two doctors behind him as if they were guarding him. One had white hair and the other green, both wearing their doctor uniforms- - -his body began shifting in defense mode as he noticed that none of them had any heartbeats; vampires working in the hospital?
Confused, he stood up from the bench as the oldest Uchiha came to a stop.
"Father, how'd it go?"
"Fine son, w-" Fugaku stopped mid-sentence as he tensed up
Sasuke raised an eyebrow at the unfinished reply but his father continued to stay silent, almost as if he was holding in his breath. It was pretty hard to see his expression due to the sunglasses covering his eyes but he noticed the way his head tilted a bit to the side.
Curious enough, he turned around only to have his eyes widen-there, Naruto was still sitting on the bench, but what disoriented him was what was written on his board
"You look familiar, is your name Fugaku?"
How the hell did the blonde know his father's name? It could've been possible to see him on t.v but naruto said theirs didn't work- - -He side glanced his father as he saw him walk towards the blonde, hand up in greeting.
"Yes that's me, who are you?"
In a swift movement, the blonde was off the bench, his tan arms wrapping around fugaku as his head landed on the old vampires chest.
"Naruto! let him go!"
Sasuke watched as both doctors were now on the move, removing the blondes arms around his father. He struggled out of the doctors hold, jumping and kicking at the air with his mouth open.
"Dad"
Sasuke froze- - -that...was that Naruto?
"Dad" the voice was raspy and cracked but it could be heard
"Dad!" He kept kicking, trying to shove off the strong hands that were holding on to his arms; his blonde eyebrows scrunched in fear, tears escaping his eyes.
"Kimimaro sleep him!" A yelling Mizuki could be heard as he ran towards the scene
"DAD!"
Using his speed, Sasuke was next to the white haired doctor in seconds, gripping his arm as his eyes flashed to angry red
"Let. Him. Go"
"I can't, I only follow my boss' rules" he said, taking out a small tube from his coat "besides, you can't do anything, there's lots of humans here"
"I'll make sure to kill you and your boss, you think I care if humans watch me slaughter you?"
Kimimaro hesitated "I'm just doing my job man"
"Sasuke!" Fugaku yelled with a stern voice
Red eyes turned to his father for a second before looking back as kimimaro injected a needle in naruto's arm.
The blonde cried out as he continued to struggle, but little by little he was calming down as his lids began dropping.
"...dad" He whispered before his body went limp
Sasuke gripped the arm with more force making the doctor hiss in pain
"Let go of my employee immediately Mr. Uchiha"
The vamp shook in rage, these imbeciles had something coming for them if they thought they could make a fool out of him. He let go of the doctors arm, his eyes returning to their normal black as he turned to the panicked voice.
"What is the meaning of this!"
Mizuki turned as well with an eyebrow raised as he saw Iruka run towards naruto's unconscious body "They injected him with a sedative drug"
kneeling down, Iruka gritted his teeth "Why!?"
"He was about to attack Mr. Uchiha"
"Actually, he didn't attack him" Sasuke intervened
"Is this correct Mr. Uchiha?"
They all turned to Fugaku but instead of answering he stayed frozen, staring at the limp body laying on the grass.
"Look, Naruto was obviously about to attack, considering the fact that Mr. Uchiha is too scared to even speak"
Sasuke scoffed- - -his father scared? That's amusing. Of course these humans didn't know about them being vampires but to think an Uchiha would be frightened was still offensive.
He squinted his eyes as he observed the old vamp, he didn't look scared that was for sure; if anything he just looked...tense.
"Naruto wouldn't attack anyone and you know that!" Iruka yelled out
Mizuki glared at him "Iruka, you have been employed in this hospital for one month, you know nothing! Now leave"
"Let me take h-"
"Now!"
The brown haired doctor glared at him but ended up getting to his feet and walking away.
"Kimimaro, Zetsu, please take Naruto to his room and strap him to his bed" Mizuki said
"Wait. Why is he being strapped?" Sasuke asked, a dark aura flowing out of his body
"We need him to calm down when he wakes up. I'm a professional doctor, I know what I'm doing"
"You may be a doctor Mizuki, but remember this.." the vamp took a few steps toward the smirking doctor "this isn't your hospital anymore, you're an employee now, which means you don't get to order anyone around"
The doctors smirk steadily fell, turning into a dark glare
"Now wait just a m-"
Before he could finish, a blonde blur passed by and slammed into him with enough speed to put a vampire to shame.
Both Sasuke and Fugaku turned, witnessing Deidara land a punch on Mizukis face; a strangled cry ripping out of his mouth as blood began flowing out of his now broken nose- - -with more speed, the blonde ran towards kimimaro, grabbing his arm and twisting it around his body as a pop sound was heard mixed with a yell in agony. The doctor fell on his knees as the blonde went after his third target; zetsu. He roundhouse kicked him in the jaw with enough force to make the man spin and fall backwards. Walking up to the body, he placed his foot on the doctors knee and stepped on it with enough force- - -crack- - -to break the bone; another yell erupting.
Deidara looked up slowly, connecting his eyes to sasukes as he panted in anger.
The vamp widened his eyes, he lowered his sunglasses to make sure he wasn't hallucinating- - -Deidara, his eyes...that's not possible.
Fugaku reacted quickly, he ran to the blonde in a hurry and wrapped his arms around him; the blonde struggled, almost breaking free.
"Sleep" his father whispered-and just like that, he went limp in his arms.
Sasuke was frozen, not in fear but in shock. His black orbs looked around-three doctors wounded, naruto on the floor unconscious and his dad holding a limp deidara.
"Sasuke, get Naruto and take him to his room"
The vamp heard his father and followed his orders- - -picking up the blonde bridal style, he walked in the building.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Sasuke entered room 13 and closed the door with his foot.
He proceeded to lay naruto on the small bed carefully, not trying to hurt him-black eyes roamed around his face; even in his sleep he looked beautiful, especially with those interesting marks in his face.
Pale fingers went up and swiped at a few strands of hair that fell on tan eyelids; his skin was smooth, and it somehow warmed his hand. It befuddled him in a way because vampire bodies were always cold.
Black eyes sparkled with determination, lips curling up a bit before he let his hand fall and turned away, walking out of the room.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"Mizuki, I demand an explanation!"
Startled, the doctor looked up from his desk, a frazzled look behind his eyes.
All three were currently in his office as a doctor tended to mizuki's broken nose-It was already bruised up pretty bad, purple and red decorating his face.
"It hasn't been the first time Naruto and Deidara reacted that way."
"Explain" Fugaku demanded
"You see, both brothers were brought in twelve years ago-"
Sasuke his raised his eyebrows- - -twelve years...what the actual fuck.
"-they witnessed the death of their parents. The police were called from someone anonymous informing them of an accident. Paramedics arrived at the scene and that's when it happened...one of the brothers got a bit...aggressive." he paused for a bit, wincing as the doctor covered his nose "A policeman witnessed that specific brother attack the paramedics, he said that the kid went crazy because they were trying to check them over for any injuries."
"How did they manage to stop him?" Sasuke questioned-he noticed the way his father tensed.
"They didn't, the boy just...fainted. Instead of taking them to a regular hospital, they brought them here." Mizuki answered
"What about the other kid, Naruto? I thought he was mute" His father asked
"Poor boy. Ever since the accident, he hasn't spoken a word, doctors already checked him over but don't know what's going on. He went into depression and soon enough tried committing suicide"
Black eyes widened-Suicide? The blue eyed patient didn't seem capable of trying to end his own life.
"You should schedule another appointment with another doctor to check his voice. He spoke a bit earlier" sasuke said
Mizuki tensed
"Must of been an instant reaction to everything that happened. I'll have a vocal specialist check him over"
The vamp nodded- - -he still felt a bit uneasy with the little explanations he's been receiving lately, maybe it was time to take matters in his own hands.
"Alright Mizuki" fugaku said, standing up "we'll be leaving but we will return to check on the building"
The doctor nodded, letting out a sigh "Of course Mr. Uchiha"
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Walking in the house, Sasuke took off his sunglasses, putting them on the coffee table by the door. He currently had his phone by his ear impatiently waiting for the other line to answer.
"Sasuke, what a surprise"
The vamp rolled his eyes "Suigetsu, I have a job for you"
"Honestly sasuke, you only call when you need something. Why not call to just, I don't know, say hi once in a while?"
"Hi...now I need you to look into a guy for me"
A scoff was heard on the other line "Fine, details?"
"Naruto Uzumaki, blonde hair, blue eyes, currently living in Konoha psychiatric hospital"
"Alright, I'll see what I can find"
Sighing, Sasuke ended the call
A headache was beginning to invade his head but he knew he made the right choice in calling suigetsu, that white haired vampire was a professional when it came to hacking into any systems, data's or pretty much anything untouchable. That blood sucker always acted lazy but when a job was given to him, he immediately got to work without having to be asked twice, it's what he appreciated about him. If anyone could help him find any important information about his blonde friend, it was him- - -wait, friend?
He pinched the bridge of his nose-that damn blonde and his damn smile were beginning to seize his mind.
Hell, he didn't even know why he was trying so hard to help the guy-well maybe because his father was being somewhat suspicious when it came to both blonde brothers; yeah, he preferred that explanation.
While they drove back home, the same question kept nagging him-why did Naruto call his father, dad? It just made no sense, and Fugaku was no help considering he stayed silent as a mouse in the car.
"Little brother, don't hurt yourself"
His headache became ten times worse after hearing that sarcastic voice.
"Itachi, don't you have someone else to bug?" Sasuke said looking up at him
"Everyone else is no fun" his brother waved him off "how did it go at the hospital?"
Instead of answering, his legs maneuvered him to the living room while one of his hands began loosening his red tie.
He grabbed two glass cups from a black cabinet and poured drinks in them before handing one to his brother.
Itachi nodded in thanks as they proceeded to sit on the white couch.
"Something...peculiar happened today" Sasuke spoke up
His brother raised an eyebrow in question
"I was speaking with Naruto out in the garden when father appeared...Naruto wrote down that he looked familiar and asked if his name was Fugaku. Father nodded and all of a sudden naruto...hugged him"
Itachi raised both eyebrows, this time in curiosity
"Out of nowhere doctors run up and knock him out with a drug. Then something else happened...Deidara went rushing in attacking the doctors. His eyes..they...were orange"
"Are you sure it wasn't just the sun playing games with your eyesight?" The older Uchiha suggested
Sasuke shook his head "No. I lowered my sunglasses in order to get a better view; it hurt as hell but...it reassured me."
Itachi crossed his leg leaning back on the cushion as he sipped his drink "That blonde intrigues me more and more everyday, and I haven't even seen him since the day we met them"
A buzzing noise was heard and in a swift movement Sasuke held his phone to his ear "Yeah?"
"Sasuke, I found something"
"What is it?"
"Well first off, Naruto Uzumaki has a brother two years older than him, his parents died twelve years ago in an explosion but-"
He didn't know they had died in an explosion, all mizuki said was that they died
"-the explosion took place...just a couple blocks away from your house"
Sasuke froze
"It didn't come out in the news, but apparently the oldest brother attacked the paramedics after they tried checking his little brother. They were taken to the psychiatric hospital, but get this...your father's signature is on the enrollment papers"
His pale hand gripped the phone "Was that it?"
"So far yes, I'll try to dig up more"
"Thanks" he said before hanging up
"Sasuke, what's wrong?" Itachi asked
"Looks like father has some explaining to do"
