Guarded Chapter 10:

"you!"

Naruto staggered backwards pointing a finger at the man in the doorway, Sasuke's glare hardened when he saw Naruto knew this man.

"Naruto what are you doing in this mans house?"

"Naruto you know this man?"

"I'm his boyfriend"

Sasuke's eyes widened in shock for a second before turning into a deathly glare, the top row of his teeth showed as he growled at the dark haired male.

"no! no! your not! You're a stalker! A molester! An obsessive compulsive bastard!!"

"Naruto…" the dark haired man tried to enter Sasuke apartment, only to be thrown against the wall by Sasuke, the other raven gripping tightly onto the unknown males shirt raising him off the ground by a few inches, as he angrily shoved his face near the others, both sets of black eyes glaring at the others.

"Sasuke!"

"Stay away from him" Sasuke threatened

"Or what?" the raven haired man smirked as he got a reaction from Sasuke, seeing the anger rise in his eyes.

"Sasuke?" Naruto looked back and forth between the two males; Naruto tried separating the two fuming ravens by getting in between their close bodies and trying to force them apart by placing a hand on either's chest and pushing backwards, "stop it!!"

Sasuke shoved the male harder against the wall before complying with Naruto and backing away turning his back on both the intruder and Naruto…

'Why am I so riled up about this?' Sasuke in his frustration punch the wall making a knuckle sized hole in the plaster, but he didn't remove his hand, 'what's wrong with me?'

"Sasuke?"

"I bet he's small" Sasuke's right eye twitched at the accusation

"Sai!!" Naruto screeched backing away from the other male

"Naruto he could never please you in ways I could" Sai protested.

"Get away from me"

'What's up with this guy?'Sasuke turned back around to see that the other male trying to grope his blonde…Sasuke had, had enough of this guy.

"Sai!!" Naruto cried out, closing his eyes as he tried to push the other male off him, before he knew it the grip on him wasn't there anymore but another grip, a kind of protective one, holding onto his waist as a firm body pressed against his back,

"Sasuke?" Naruto opened his eyes to see it was Sasuke who was holding him, a very angry Sasuke…who seemed to be staring down at the ground, Naruto followed the stoic mans gaze to find Sai on the floor rubbing his cheek with the back of his hand, "you hit him?"

Sai got up and both raven haired men glared at each other, Naruto felt a little timid as he was in between their gazes, he started to laugh nervously…immediately regretting it as both sets of black eyes were now on him

"Naruto?" both said in unison

"I see you've met sai" came the familiar bored tone, "I'm glad your all friends now"

"Kakashi, who is he?" Sasuke questioned his voice threatening as he continued his glare.

"His name is Sai, he's your new partner…"

"What!?" Naruto shouted releasing himself from Sasuke's grip, "I thought he was a reporter!"

"I am but I'm also a trained bodyguard" the shorter raven smiled, Sasuke just glared nd growled.

"Kakashi explain"

Kakashi, Naruto and Sai all seated themselves in Sasuke lounge while said raven continued his glaring fest leaning against the doorframe.

After an hour and a half, Kakashi had explained that Sai was a reporter and a Naruto fanatic, he'd once been an asset to the team of bodyguards Kakashi commanded before Sasuke's time, it had seemed that Sai was the reporter that Sasuke had hit outside the hospital, which made the stoic Uchiha smirk as he looked at the damage he'd done to the raven, Kakashi had also explained that because of Sasuke's little mistake he'd asked Sai to stand in and help Sasuke protect the blonde saying that this was a bigger job then Sasuke could handle.

"I don't need help, especially from him" Sasuke although very pissed stated coolly.

"Naruto how about we go on a date, I'll protect you while I please you" sai smiled causing his eyes to curve at Naruto.

"Is sex all you think about?!"

"Only when it involves my little blonde"

"I'm not yours!!" Naruto shouted getting very irritated at the raven.

"You expect him to help me?" Sasuke questioned

"He's better then you think Sasuke"

"Did Itachi put you up to this?" Sasuke's anger was rising.

"No-"

"Face it Uchiha you choked and not only did you injure yourself you put Naruto in danger" Sai stated coldly, his black eyes locking onto Sasuke's.

"And you think you'll do a better job?"

"I know I can" Sai mocked the Uchiha, causing Sasuke to reach his breaking point.

"Show me" he challenged, as he pushed off the doorframe uncrossing his arms and making his way over to the other.

Sai stood and both ravens stared each other down, Naruto's head shot from one to the other

"Sasuke? Sai?"

"Don't worry Naruto I wont hurt him to much" Sai gave Naruto a cold smile before turning his gaze back upon Sasuke

It was clear that Sasuke had height advantage and maybe strength advantage as he wore a black tank top showing his well muscled arms, though said obviously wasn't a push over if Kakashi thought he could do a better job at protecting Naruto then Sasuke could, though Kakashi had stated it was mainly down to Sai's cool level of thinking, though Sasuke wasn't stupid far from it he did loose his cool and think irrationally when it came to the blonde.

"Aren't you going to stop them?" Naruto questioned leaning closer to Kakashi whilst hiding behind his raised hand,

"Nah…I think we'll let them sort this out"

Naruto gulped as he straightened himself in his seat once more looking at the two ravens.

Sai was the first one to strike aiming a punch directly at Sasuke's head, though Sasuke was hot on the ball as he caught the fist mid punch and delivered a punch to Sai's gut, the raven wincing and bending forward from the contact, Sasuke's face remained completely emotionless as he delivered another blow to the others jaw sending Sai flying to the opposite of contact.

"He's doing this for you"

"I know…" Naruto whispered, his eyes softening "But why?"

Sai darted off the couch he had landed on and tackled Sasuke both ravens falling to the ground.

"I don't think he even knows why" Kakashi watched the ongoing fight with slight amusement.

Sai had landed a well aimed punch to Sasuke's cheek, though Sasuke quickly regained the upper hand by flipping them both so Sasuke was now on top of Sai and landing a punch of his own to the ravens cheek, but when he aimed for another punch Sai caught his fist causing Sasuke to use his other hand though Sai had caught that punch as well, Sasuke growled right as their faces became parallel only a few inches away from the others.

Kakashi smirked underneath his mask, it was worth being early for once to meet this guy, Kakashi dug through his pocket and brought out a small orange book, flipping it open and began reading, its dirty contents.

"Enough!" Naruto yelled, though it did nothing as the two raven haired men continued their little squirmiest on the floor, rolling around like a couple of children, "stop!!" Naruto yelled louder.

That had caught Sasuke's attention at least, the raven haired man decided to comply to Naruto and get off of Sai, but once stood upright Sai took the opportunity to land a kick to the tall mans thigh, causing Sasuke to yell in pain and fall to his knees gripping tightly onto the point of contact which had been his healing bullet wound.

"Sasuke!!" Naruto darted over to the raven's sides, "are you ok? You're not hurt are you? Let me see?"

Sasuke's eyes met Naruto's, seeing the worried and concerned look in the usually placid azure eyes shocked Sasuke, 'why does he care?'

"Bastard let me see!" Naruto forcefully removed Sasuke's hands and began stroking the Sasuke's thigh to see where the wound was, placing pressure on points of his thigh to see if he could feel if he wound had opened up again.

Sasuke's face began visibly flushed as Naruto continued to almost caress Sasuke's leg…

"I'm fine!" Sasuke stated coldly, pushing Naruto aside as he limped his way towards the stairs, "I'm going to take a shower"

"What did I do?" Naruto looked at Sasuke retreating back; a blank expression married his features.

Sasuke turned on the tap water, making sure it was cold before he stripped and got underneath the spray, wincing slightly as the cold spray hit his skin causing goose bumps to appear, though son he got used to the cold, it was a relief on his aching back and stirring lower regions…

"Shit"

Sasuke leant forwards, laying his arms against the cool bathroom tiles and laying his forehead against his forearms, Naruto's concern and touch, that innocence in the blonde's eyes had almost made him lose it, had he stayed he would have jumped the blonde and probably scared him…something inside told him he didn't want to do that, he didn't want to take advantage of the little blonde, use him for sex like he'd done in the past...he wanted something more, though Sasuke was desired after he had never actually had a relationship in his life, but he wanted one with Naruto…

Sasuke's right hands fell from the wall, his fingertips ghosted over his heart, the fast beat causing his chest to rise and fall at an unnatural rate…what was Naruto doing to him?

Naruto walked down the dark corridors of Sasuke's apartment it was the early hours of the morning and Naruto was exhausted but he wanted something to eat, his stomach was killing him.

After Sasuke had, had his shower Kakashi had left telling them to go to his office in the morning, but much to Sasuke's grudge Sai stayed and had still not left the house, he was currently sleeping soundly on the lounge couch, Naruto had Sasuke's bed and Sasuke said he was going to sleep in the other room.

Naruto tried to stifle his loud yawn, to no avail he groggily walked into the kitchen, finding a dark figure leaning against the kitchen counters looking off to the side at the small window the moonlight lighting up his pale face.

"Sasuke?"

Naruto walked closer to the raven, when he got within arms reach of Sasuke, the raven haired man grabbed Naruto by his waist and pulled him towards him so their bodies were now against one another

"What are we?" Sasuke questioned

"Huh?" Naruto titled his head to the side, truly confused by the sudden question

"What are we?" Sasuke looked down at the blonde,

Naruto blushed at the attention, by nature he was a attention seeking person but getting the stoic mans attention made him feel uneasy, he stated to wiggle in Sasuke's grip turning his head so he wasn't looking into Sasuke's eyes anymore.

"I-I don't under-understand" Naruto inwardly cursed himself for the stutter

"This, is this just something to pass the time or-"

"What!" Naruto cut off his eyes once again staring into emotionless black orbs, "I though we were…um dating"

Sasuke's lips curved into a gentle honest smile, his eyes softened at the true concern that showed in the blonde's eyes.

"Hn" Sasuke roughly grabbed Naruto's arse and pulled him up Naruto reflexively wrapped his legs around the taller male, Naruto was confused at the sudden closeness,\but it quickly wore off when Sasuke pressed his lips against Naruto's.

The next morning Naruto buzzed around, practically skipping as he Sai and Sasuke made their way passed rows of cubicles in front of Kakashi's office.

"He will never be yours Uchiha" Sai fiercely said next to Sasuke, but made sure that said person couldn't hear him

"Is that so?" Sasuke kept his eyes focused in front of him.

"You're not good enough for him"

"And you are?" Sasuke growled.

"I can please him better then you could hope to imagine"

"I think its Naruto's choice to decide who's better for him"

"Naruto glad to see you again" Kakashi stepped out of his office to greet a still ecstatic blonde, Kakashi raised a questioning eyebrow before he bowed his face inches from Naruto's, "did you have sex with Sasuke last night?"

"No!!!" Naruto screamed blushing a bright red

"Okay" Kakashi smiled underneath his mask, straightening his body he made his way back into is office indicating for the three of them to follow, "coffee?"

"What's this about Kakashi?" Sasuke questioned, before Naruto had the chance to accept the offer.

"Orochimaru's after Naruto"

"Tell me something I don't know" Sasuke coldly stated.

"We've been unable to find him even with the services of the secret services, as your probably aware of he was the one who had caused the fire in Naruto's house"

Sasuke grunted fully aware that Orochimaru had caused that fire.

"He's sent another letter" Kakashi continued, "He's planning something…what's coming up that involves Naruto's appearance?"

"I'm nominated for an Oscar" Naruto stated

"So he wants to target him when he wins?" Sasuke questioned

"That's ridicules there's high security at those kind of high class gatherings you'd have to be stupid to try anything there" Sai stated

"He's not stupid, he's mad if anyone could pull it off it would be him" Sasuke narrowed his eyes, "what are we going to do?"

"Your not serious, he won't be able to even get in without a pass"

"He's not someone you take lightly" Sasuke glared at Sai, "he was once a bodyguard himself and like I said before if anyone could pull this off it'd be Orochimaru"

Sasuke and Sai glared at one another, but Sai had to trust Sasuke knowledge of the snake like male, he after all had never dealt with someone like him and Sasuke had.

"So what are we going to do?" Sai questioned returning his gaze to Kakashi.

"We're going to make a plan of action"
