Quicknote: I'm sorry again that this is a day late. New updates will now be on Tuesdays. I'm also sorry that the past couple chapters have been rather short, I love writing, but my mind has been a bit all over the place lately. I'll make it up by making the next chapter really long and will be posted on February 21st, due to the holiday week of valentines day and presidents day. It's just works better with my schedule, sorry again people. Reminder, this is Sasunaru, no like no read. Feel free to comment.

Naruto's POV: Everything's blurry. I yawn, why am I in my house? I thought I was at school, how did I end up here? Maybe it was all a dream, Sasuke asking me why I'm called a monster all the time, I sigh in relief until I feel someone's hand on my shoulder.

"You fainted again idiot."

I sigh and feel a frown form "It wasn't a dream."

"Of course it wasn't a dream."

I see him circle around the couch and sit next to me.

"Please tell me."

"Tell you what."

"Stop it Naruto. Please open up to me."

"I-I can't- You wouldn't see me as the same person anymore. You'd hate me."

"Naruto, you need to understand keeping this information from me is ruining our relationship overall. Out of all the times I've been here, you avoid ever showing me your room. Do you know how much that bothers me? You keep so much information from me, all I know is your surface. I want to know more. Please tell me."

I think this is the most serious I've ever seen him get about anything. I feel chills creeping up and down my spine.

"Sasuke, I don't even know a whole lot about you. Did you ever take that into mind?"

"I've never even been to your house, I've never met your parents, I don't know if you have any siblings. I don't even know simple things about you, besides you liking tuna fish sandwiches and playing videogames."

"You have been to my house idiot! I've told you I have a brother and if you must know my parents aren't around anymore."

"What does that mean? They aren't around?"

"They're dead. Gone. Not here. Get it?"

"Sasuke. I'm sor-"

"Don't say that. There's nothing to be sorry about."

"But I am sorry Sasuke."

"If you're sorry then tell me."

"No, this isn't a trade off. I'm sorry your parents aren't here anymore, but I still can't tell you."

"Damn it Naruto!" He gets up and starts pacing.

"Just fucking tell me!"

"No."

"This isn't fair to me!"

"Sasuke, you'd hate me."

I see him run his hands through his hair in frustration, "I'm done."

"What?"

"I can't do this anymore. I can't be with you if you won't tell me."

I pause and think. I care about him too much to have him know. It was going to end eventually I suppose. I think I'm gonna cry.

"Then leave."

I see his eyes widen, slightly glazed over.

"Really Naruto?"

I wipe my eyes, trying to prevent any tears from falling. "Yea Sasuke, please leave." Please don't leave was all I could think at this point.

I look down, but from the corner of my eye, I see him walk out the door. He really left. I don't know what to do now, I feel as if I have nothing to look forward to anymore, nothing to love, nothing to care about. I love my parents but I saw fear in their eyes when they looked at me, that's why I couldn't be around them anymore and that's why I couldn't tell Sasuke. That fear in people's eyes, I couldn't bare to see that look in his eyes, I care about him too much. It already feels as if it's been ages since I've seen him, but it's really only been a minute, maybe. My heart hurts, I let the tears run down my face now, not caring anymore, because he's not here, nobody's here to see me cry. To cry in front of someone is showing how vulnerable you are and knowing I had done that with Sasuke months ago when we had barely known each other makes me feel weak and stupid. If I had never cried, he would've never started caring about me and then I wouldn't be at the point where I am now, hurting Sasuke and making myself go through this pain. Feeling the way I do right now I realize I had never been this unhappy before. It seems that I've discovered a level of unhappiness that I hadn't had before, pain is funny in that way. When we think we've felt the deepest part of pain to where we've touched the bottom, we soon discover that pain is never ending and that it only goes deeper. By the time happiness comes, some of us are strong enough to reach it while the rest of us are too far gone in our pain. For a brief moment I had felt happiness, but now he's gone and he took that happiness with him, but it's my fault. Before I knew him, yea I was unhappy, but there was a little room to look for hope. I find myself now feeling completely unhappy.

Temari's POV: "Where am I dropping you off Temari?"

"Geez it took you long enough Sasuke, I've been waiting out here for almost two hours!"

"Damn it Temari! Stop complaining and fucking tell me where I can drop you off!"

"What's wrong with you all of a sudden? Don't yell at me like that! I've been waiting is all! Is everything okay?"

"Everything's great Temari! You wanna know what happened? He told me to leave! I decide to fucking start caring about this asshole and he tells me to leave! And he still won't tell me! Can you believe that!? So him and I are done. I'm done. I'm done caring, because it's such bullshit! Get in the car! Now!"

I can see I'm not going to be talking to him like this. I've never seen him get this upset before, sometimes he would raise his voice a little when he got pissed at Kiba, but right now, I never knew a face as pale as his could be so red. For Naruto's sake, this could work out in his favor. Kiba won't beat the crap out of him if Sasuke comes back to the group. It sounds like Naruto ended it, so might as well make the best of this situation.

"Let's go to Kiba's Sasuke, you need to calm down." He looks at me as he slams the car door.

"Are you on crack Temari?! Why the fuck would I go to Kiba's right now?"

"Do you see yourself right now! You need to let off some steam. Come over to Kiba's and have a beer, please?"

"Seeing Kiba will make me even more angry Temari. I can have a beer at home."

"No I know your brother. He doesn't like you drinking."

"I'm willing to deal with his nagging rather than seeing Kiba."

"Fine then how about Shikamaru's?"

"Temari I know your boyfriend doesn't care for me much." He's being so difficult right now.

"Not true Sasuke, just please come over."

"Why?!"

"Damn it Sasuke, you need to fucking calm down, that's why! Please come over, for the last time I beg you."

I see him think to himself while his hands are on the steering wheel,his whole body is tense and his knuckles are white and his eyes are puffy and raw. He's been crying. I've never seen Sasuke cry before, I know Shikamaru doesn't really like Sasuke, but he'll understand this is an emergency.

"Fine."

I look up. "What?"

"I said fine. Now lead me to Shikamaru's, before I change my mind."

"Okay." I feel a bit relieved by this point. I pull out my phone to see a text from Shikamaru, "Where are you?" it says.

I quickly reply, "Sasuke's coming over to your house and I'm with him. I'll explain everything when we get there, I'm sorry."

As I'm telling Sasuke the directions I see my phone light up, another message from Shikamaru, "It's fine." I read.

I know Shikamaru probably doesn't like the thought of me saying I'm with Sasuke, but it was his idea for me to talk to him after all. Whatever, I'll just worry about his attitude when I get there.
