I totally didn't realize that it's July already and I haven't updated this for quite a while! So sorry! This was supposed to be 2 separate chapters but as a sign of apology, I combined them to make one longer chapter. Enjoy ;)

Chapter 7: Faint & Headache!
Naruto smiles tenderly. Never in his life has Naruto feel this content and satiated. He snuggles in closer; but something is irritating him, pushing the content feeling away. What in the hell takes up much space on his bed and pushes him nearing the edge of the bed?!
The blond grunts in annoyance, his only mission now is to push the thing away. But as soon as his palm touches the hard, pale, warm chest, he shrieks, snapping his eyes open and stumbles backward.
"Omph!" the wind is knocked out of him when he falls on the floor. "Shit, that hurts!" The thing, or rather the person on the bed moves, making rustling sound. Black orbs peers from above him; eyes showing amusement.
"Y-You...!" Naruto stutters; so it wasn't a dream after all? His eyes widen in horror. The vampire really exists after all?! Fear creeps in. If… If they had –Naruto blushes at this point; his face red and hot- so much fun last night, does that mean that now the vampire is ready to suck his blood dry?
"You… You're a vampire!Y-You are not going to d-drink my blood now, are you?!" Naruto shrieks again, hands quickly clamp on his neck protectively.
Sasuke really never know he can have this kind of feeling, but it's like he's floating and it really makes his heart and head light. He decides there and then that he really likes this feeling and for someone who is obsessive and possessive, Sasuke will keep whatever floats his boat close to him.
With each passing second, he finds himself getting more and more drawn to this blond angel- his blond angel; and he finds himself more and more amused with this child's antics, especially when he is dubbed 'vampire'. Well, what different does it make because Sasuke dubbed this blond as his angel after all.
"Naruto…" his dark, deep voice rolls the name onto his tongue. Shivers shot down in Naruto's spine at the velvety voice. The blond gulps.
"I'm not interested in your blood," Sasuke says; he doesn't even bother to correct Naruto that he's not a vampire.
"T-Then?" Naruto asks fearfully; something's clicking in his mind but it's still fuzzy.
Sasuke trails his gaze lower and lower, taking in hungrily the astonishing beautiful sight of this angel. Naruto follows his gaze and heat creeps up again, making his face dark with blush and embarrassment.
He's stark naked on the floor!
"Argh!!!" Naruto screams, snatching the nearest sheet, which is located on the bed to cover him. The force makes Sasuke fell backward on the bed but he too then pull another sheet to cover his... umm... private parts.
Unknowingly, heat makes its way up Sasuke's ivory cheeks too when he realized what has happened yesterday. Now that he's fully awake, no lust clouds his eyes and mind, Sasuke too feels embarrassed.
Both look away; avoiding each other's gaze.

When Shizune steps into the ward that morning, she frowns at the tray of food in front of Sasuke's door. The door is closed too, she notices. Usually in the Psychiatric Ward, no patient room door is allowed to be closed, for safety purposes.
Well, except obviously Sasuke's room- he's got that much of the privileges.
Shizune makes her way to the nurse station at the reception and finds some nurses already at their routine work.
"Why is Sasuke's tray outside his room?"
The nurses look at each other, giving uncomfortable expression. "His door is locked- since yesterday, late afternoon," one of them finally voices out.
An eyebrow arches. "Since yesterday? Doesn't he eat his dinner then?"
The nurses shook their head. "The night-shift staff said it was never touched."
Shizune frowns. Sasuke really should stop giving everyone else death glares. He even scares the nurses and other hospital staff with that to the point that unless the raven-haired gives permission only the others are allowed to do what they need to do, including speaking.
It is an unwritten rule in the ward; and every new nurse, student and rotating doctors that come into the ward are being told about it the very first moment they step into the ward- Nobody is to bother Uchiha Sasuke. If the door is locked, unless if it's Shizune, Tsunade-sensei or Kakashi, no one else is allowed to open it.
And if the door is opened, you knock thrice to signal that you're coming in, do about your business- like checking vitals, putting or picking the food tray and hands the medication and then silently go out. The less the contact and communication, the better.
And those are the reasons why nobody dares to check what's going on with Uchiha Sasuke in his room.
Is it dangerous? No, it's actually safer that way. When Sasuke promises he will not harm himself behind the closed door in any way, he holds to his promises; that's the deal he got from the Head of Psychiatric Department in return for his complete privacy.
Which drove Tsunade-sensei crazy at one point in the past.
"Right…" Shizune says at last. "I'll go and check on him. Where's the key?" One nurse hands her the key and some of them follow her; it's a good lesson to learn how Shizune handles Sasuke.
Silently, or rather foolishly with some of the younger nurses, they hold to high hopes that one day Sasuke will open his heart to them and treat them at least as warm as he treats Shizune. It doesn't matter to them that this young adult has personality disorder or some mental condition; his rather handsome look caught their eyes and hearts.
Foolish young nurses…
Shizune puts the key into the lock and turns it, slowly and gently pushing it open. No morning greeting is needed as Shizune softly whispers, "Sasuke-kun?"
But what she saw freezes her at the door. Shizune pales. What the-?
One nurse faints.

The sound from the door breaks the serene atmosphere on the other side of the room. Sasuke's expression instantly changes to an irritated one. How dare somebody interrupt his morning bonding with his blond angel?!
He shot a glare at the door as Naruto turns his head in embarrassment and panic towards the now-opened door.
And they saw one nurse falls ungraciously onto the floor.
If it isn't already tense in the room, Naruto would have laughed his gut out at the fainting and horror faces the females are giving them.
As it turns out, getting caught almost naked is even more embarrassing.

Tsunade rubs the bridge of her nose. Damn her patient! Damn two teenagers with raging hormones! Damn these two beautiful creatures in front of her! She swore loudly under her breath.
And where the fuck is Jiraiya when she had paged him hundreds of time that this is urgent?!
Never before in the history of this hospital; never before in the history of this ward; and never before in the history of her being the Head of Department has anything like this happened!
A patient fucks a visitor senseless? All night?! In the soundproof room without anyone else noticing?!
Has the world come to an END?!
The hazel eyes train on the two blushing boys who are facing away from each other. Right…. Only now they act all shy and virginal??
Pssshht!! Tsunade rolls her eyes.
"Morning, Tsunade-chyaaaaann!!!" the door bursts open and a professor with thick white hair comes in with widest grin. His eyes fix on the healthy bosoms of the blonde woman opposite him; drooling a bit. Behind him, another man with spiky silver-white hair floats in, head buried in a thick orange book. Tsunade twitches.
"Hatake Kakashi!" her voice booms, making even the birds outside fly away in fears. Even the two boys in front of Tsunade stilled at her angry tone.
But that's not the case of Kakashi though. He merely looks up and asks, "Yes?"
"You! You are a staff in this department and yet you walk in here as late as this perverted old man here- And you!" she points to Jiraiya and glares menacingly, "Stop staring at my boobs you pervert! Both of you are late and really you will be the cause of my downfall, apart from these two rabbits here and oh God!" Tsunade suddenly groans voice close to tears. "I'm really gonna get fired and sued like this!" she slumps onto her chair in defeat, burying her face in her hands.
Jiraiya looks at Kakashi and vice versa as the two 'rabbits' too look at each other. Oddly, they all shrug at the same time, exactly on the same second and millisecond.
Shizune who is standing at the door shakes her head in pity for the poor lady. Men!
Tsunade sniffs and sits up straight. She takes in big breaths in and out. Her face now is set with determination and seriousness that even Jiraiya stands up straight as if he is facing the head commander of an army troops.
"This blond rabbit… is your research, isn't it Jiraiya?" Tsunade asks menacingly, pointing to Naruto.
Only then Jiraiya notices Naruto who is sitting shyly at one end. "Eh?! Naruto? What are you doing here this morning? You were supposed to meet Kakashi here," he points to Kakashi next to him, and continues, "yesterday afternoon, not today. I gave to the day off, remember?"
Tsunade shakes her head. How this dumbass became a professor is still a mystery to her.
"No, you idiot! He was here since yesterday evening!" Tsunade barks.
"What do you mean?"
"And why is Sasuke here?" Kakashi decides it's time to interrupt, even when he knows it is not a suitable time to interrupt yet.
Tsunade's whole face is red with anger. These men! She feels like snapping their valuable members off!
"This charge of yours, Hatake Kakashi," Tsunade manages in barely control anger. Kakashi has the decency to look afraid at her; whether it's a pretend or for real, nobody knows. "Raped Jiraiya's experiment specimen all night long!" Tsunade hisses. "Now do you want to take the responsibility?!"
"No! She's lying!" Naruto suddenly stands up and shrieks, pointing accusing finger at Tsunade. The adults are taken aback with this. Sasuke glares at his Psychiatrist- what kind of a doctor who wants to smear her patient's reputation?!
"I-It wasn't a rape!" Naruto explains desperately; he doesn't want his vampire to be blamed on. "It was c-consensual! I gave my consent! We were both willing partners!"
The doctors and nurse (Shizune) are frozen. It's not a rape? Naruto was willing? Sasuke didn't rape Naruto?
"I-Is that so?" Tsunade asks, clearly embarrassed at her accusation. When Naruto and Sasuke nod, Tsunade clears her throat uncomfortably. "Well… I'm sorry for accusing you then, Sasuke…" The raven-haired teen is still giving her a glare. Oh boy, she's in trouble now…
"Wait… you had sex with Sasuke?!" Jiraiya's eyes widen at this as the realization sinks in. "Shit…" Jiraiya mutters. Tsunade, Kakashi and Shizune look at him with curiosity. "I'm gonna be killed by Iruka…"
"Who's Iruka?" Kakashi sounds interested. Sasuke rolls his eyes.
"Naruto's dad!" Jiraiya looks like he's about to burst in tears. That scary teacher has warned Jiraiya should anything harmful happen to Naruto, he's a dead meat and you have to take Iruka's threat seriously! Does having sex is categorized as harmful? Jiraiya shook his head; of course it is! Iruka's a father after all! Which father is not overly protective of their child?
Kakashi sighs at this. Damn it. There goes his chance… This Iruka's married…
"What's the problem?" Tsunade asks. Well, she can see there are a lot of problem awaiting for her seeing at how her job now is in jeopardy because of these two senseless rabbits; but what does Jiraiya have to be worried about?
"Tsunade-hime… Naruto's a minor! He's not even 18 yet! That's the problem!"
The other three adults' eyes rounded widely at this. "Naruto's not 18?" Tsunade asks carefully, hoping she heard him wrong.
"I'm 17," Naruto answers her. What's wrong with being 17?
Right, Naruto just has to make everything clear himself, hasn't he? Sweats gather on their faces and necks. This only doubles their problem. Instead of being able to contain the problem here, now they have to bring in Naruto's dad.
And faces high possibility of being sued.
Which mean they could all be sack off their jobs that instant!
"You mean we have to call him in…" Tsunade slumps further in her chair. It doesn't feel as comfy as usual. Shit, she needs sake…
Jiraiya gulps. "That's not the scary part, hime… The scary part is he's an elementary school teacher…" Jiraiya shudders at this; as well as the other three medical professionals at the words. There is an unwritten rule somewhere that elementary school teacher is indeed a scary being despite their soft and gentle treatment to the children.
It's like they have an inner demon that's waiting to be unleashed.
"Oh, I don't think he can come in yet; he's still teaching at this hour. He will be done by 3, I think. I can call him up for you if you'd like," Naruto offers politely, oblivious to the dread the doctors, professor and nurse are having.
Tsunade shakes her head. She can't think carefully with Naruto around, offering information innocently (and although Tsunade feels guilty to add it, it's almost the truth after all) and dumbly.
"It's okay, Naruto… We'll contact him if you don't mind. I'm afraid you have to leave this room with Sasuke for now; I have important matters to discuss with these two doctors. Go and play in Sasuke's room or something…" Tsunade says dryly.
"Play?" Naruto asks stupidly, suddenly feeling something rather erotic and making his skin tingles deliciously.
Tsunade feels like banging her head on her desk looking at Naruto's cloudy dazed blue eyes. "I mean play XBOX or something; Sasuke has the set in his room," Tsunade corrects it quickly.
The cloud of lust quickly goes away as soon as it comes; Sasuke shoot Tsunade another hot glare. "XBOX?!" there's an excitement in Naruto's voice and eyes. "You have XBOX, Sasuke, and you didn't tell me?!" he looks at the dark vampire. Sasuke suppresses the urge to roll his eyes at the idiot; of course he didn't tell Naruto- when did they have time to talk about what Sasuke has in his room?!
"What are we waiting for?! Come on!" and so, the shy Naruto is gone and a crazy, energetic blond takes his place; Naruto drags Sasuke out of Tsunade's office.
Tsunade sighs. "Please don't take your eyes off them, Shizune and make sure the door is opened at all time- You stay in the room too, just in case," Tsunade adds, looking at Shizune pleadingly.
Kakashi watches the two 'rabbits' as Tsunade had called them with curious interest. Sasuke didn't hiss in anger at Naruto for touching him! And was it just his eyes or did he really see that Sasuke seems to tolerate Naruto fine, better from the rest of them?
That really piques his interest and he asks this to Tsunade as he takes his seat. Tsunade ponders for a while, tapping her manicured fingers on the desk.
"I have to agree with you, Kakashi… Can it be that we have found a treatment for Sasuke's Scizoid? Did all we need was to find him a blond male?" Tsunade asks incredulously. Is a blond male really what they need to cure Sasuke from his PD? If they had known that, they would have found him one a long time ago, dammit!
"Uhh... Hello? What's a Schizoid?" Jiraiya asks in confusion; the term indeed sounds familiar but he couldn't place a finger on it. He was once a medical student, he should know this stuff, Jiraiya thinks in annoyance.
The other two look at Jiraiya and sigh simultaneously. They have a lot of explaining to do.
