Warning: Sasuke and Naruto will be OOC, but I will try to keep their characters as close as possible as to the ones in the anime and manga.
Reminder: Bold and italic means Naruto in his fox form is thinking.
Full Summary: So… what are you suppose to do when someone gives you a baby fox, keep it? Kill it? And even worse it's a demon fox too. What are yousuppose todo when the lady said that this demon child-fox was made for you, keep it? Kill it? And what are you suppose to do when you see the demon in its human form and fall in love with it? Keep it or kill it? That's what Sasuke has to choose.
Disclaimer: Private Demon
Naruto grinned as he remembered Sasuke's face when he saw the hat; Sasuke had tried to grab it only to find out that Itachi bought him one too. Just so he wouldn't feel left out, but Sasuke's wasn't a fox it was a cats ears. Itachi even made sure that if Sasuke ever burnt it, he would show Sasuke's fan girls a few of Sasuke's baby pictures.
Naruto had to give Itachi credit, the pictures he picked out, Sasuke would never want anyone to see, for Naruto his favorite would have to be the one of Sasuke taking a bath in pink bubbles with three rubber ducks in the water with him. Oh yes and Sasuke even had a pink ribbon in his hair.
Itachi had even told him he had to give Sasuke a gift too, so that's how Naruto ended up shopping in some store by himself. Dressed in warm coat, a blue scarf and his orange hat he walked down the ale trying to find something for Sasuke. So far he had found nothing and it was getting dark and Sasuke wanted him home, sighing Naruto turned and started to walk home. It wasn't a good idea to get Sasuke mad at him, and anyways it was cold.
Pulling his scarf closer to his face Naruto sighed the wind had picked up, and he still had a few blocks to go before he got home…
Something wasn't right. It had been the fifth time Sasuke had looked out the window for Naruto; he should have been back a while ago. No matter how many times he asked Itachi he would not tell him where Naruto had gone, flopping onto the couch he sighed and looked at the fire place. "Stupid dope, where the hell are you?"
Time seamed to pass very slowly, seconds turning into hours until Sasuke couldn't take it anymore. The wind had picked up and it was even starting to snow, looking down he saw his hands curled into fists. Opening his hands he stared down at the strands of black hair that rested in the palms of his now open hands. Grabbing his jacket Sasuke put on his shoes and turned to the door, something happened to Naruto. He just new it.
He was only a few steps away from the door when he saw someone walking towards him. What's Naruto's cousin doing over here? As the red head got closer to him Sasuke could see something red in his arms.
Sasuke's heart stopped.
With each step the red head took Sasuke's blood seamed to be freezing in his veins, his feet were frozen to the ground so he wasn't even able to move. Only watch as the two got close and close to him until he was able to look into bright green eyes. Tearing his eyes away from the green ones he looked at the red fur ball him his arms.
Sasuke gently took the demon into his arms and held him close to his body.
"We should go in." Said a voice from in front of him.Looking up Sasuke looked at the other demon. He looked nothing like Naruto. Nodding his head Sasuke walked back inside the warm house, leaving the door open for the other demon to fallow. Moving into the living room Sasuke walked over to the fireplace and sat down as close as he was able to without burning himself.
Looking down at Naruto his chest started to hurt, a feeling that he never felt before. Tarring his eyes away from the demon's form he looked up at the other red hair demon. Opening his mouth he wanted to say something, only to find that nothing came out. It took four times before Sasuke was able to whisper the question "why?"
Gaara watched as Naruto's Master held him and whispered over and again, his hand rubbing behind Naruto's ear. Titling his head he watched the two, he could never recall his cousin to be to be protive of anything, even less a human. Leaning on the wall he watched as Naruto's master slowly started to warm the foxes body up. Gaara new that Naruto could never die from something like this, but he kept this information to himself he wanted to watch this… it is very interesting.
Out of the corner of his eyes, Gaara saw someone else approach the room. Watching slightly he saw Naruto's master turn to the other human male. As the human male tried to take Naruto away from his master, said master held Naruto closer to his body, and glared at the other human. "So tell me demon, is Naruto gonna live?" Gaara looked at the human male and shrugged his shoulders, he wasn't going to tell him that something like a little cold wind was gonna kill his cousin. It would stop all his fun; anyways he wasn't his master so Gaara didn't have to listen.
Itachi glared at the red hair demon then looked back at his brother. Shaking his head he bent down and picked up Sasuke, bridal style and walked over to the couch. He should at lest sit on something soft… for all the good it will do. Dumping his brother on the couch softly, Itachi walked over to the phone. He should have done this call a while ago… It's been a long time coming.
"Hello?" A female voice answered.
"Yes hi, is Neji Home?"
"Yes, may I ask who is speaking?" The voice on the other end of the phone asked.
"Its Itachi, Hinata now can you get Negi."
"J-just a second cousin." Replayed Hinata.
While waiting for Neji, Itachi looked over at Sasuke who was still watching Naruto. A voice interrupted his thought. "…So what do you want?" Neji's voice floated through the receiver.
"Just to tell you that we have your demon. Also I'm not letting him out in this weather by himself so you better come get him coz."
"Just let him be, he's nothing like your brothers pathetic demon. He can find his way home by himself." "My house my rules Neji, so either you come and get him or he doesn't leave this house." With that said Itachi hung up the phone, sometimes it was hard to belive that they were related.
Walking back to his brother he took his face between his hands and looked at Sasuke's dark eyes that were scared. "Sasuke, take Naruto up to your room, you have a fireplace up there. Start a fire and keep Naruto warm." With that said Itachi pushed Sasuke towards the stairs and watched as Sasuke ran up the stairs, almost falling a few times. Once he was out of sight Itachi turned towards the other demon. "So Gaara…"
Blinking Sasuke put Naruto on his bed, and turned towards the fireplace. "Brother said to start a fire…" He muttered to himself as he got the wood and started a little fire in his room. Taking Naruto and the blanket Sasuke wrapped them around him and Naruto as he sat down by the fire. Looking down Sasuke let the tears fall from his eyes, the tears ran down his cheeks until the fell on Naruto's slightly damp fur. "Please, Naruto… Don't leave me…"
TBC… Author's Note: I suck, I'm mean I know, I know. I did not mean for it to take me this long to post. I've just been very busy. So once again I am sorry for the wait. Happy New Year everyone!
