Song: 'Never Too Late' by Three Days Grace

The Fallen Angel

Chpt. 9 An Angel Steps In Pt.2 Forgiveness and Self Hate

"Wait, are you saying that you don't remember what happened at night?!" Sasuke asked. "And that you only know that you're an alcoholic because Kakashi told you so?!" "Yes," Naruto said and started to cry. "It's okay Naruto," said Sasuke. "It's okay." Ten minutes flew by until Naruto stopped crying and spoke. "Sasuke can you do me a favor?" he asked. "What do you want Naruto?" Sasuke said. "Tell me what I did when I was drunk," Naruto said. "I can't live with myself until I know." "How about I bake you some cookies first?" Sasuke suggested. "You can't," Naruto said. "Why not?" Sasuke asked. "Cause I made them for you already and used all the cookie dough," Naruto said. "They finished cooking when you came back." "Well in that case before we talk about what happened let me get you some cookies and milk," Sasuke said. "Fine," Naruto said. "Just promise me we'll talk about it later." "I promise," said Sasuke. But they never did. Instead they laughed and watched a movie and talked about how life used to be. Before Naruto became an alcoholic. They even fell asleep together like they used to. But noone actually slept. They only pretended to sleep. Both thinking about what they had done. 'I can't believe I started drinking,' Naruto thought. 'I love him so much and to do something like this is just heartless. He loved me so much, even though he didn't like to show it in public. But he cared.'

FLASHBACK

"Naruto please stop trying to hold my hand," said Sasuke.

"Why should I?" Naruto asked teasingly.

"Because we're in public," said Sasuke.

"But Sasuke."

"No Naruto."

"Please."

"Naruto you know what will happen if Itachi found out about us."

"But Sasuke I love you."

"Later Naruto."

"Fine you bastard."

Later Back At Their House

"So what was it that you said earlier?" Sasuke asked teasingly.

"It doesn't matter," Naruto said plopping down onto the couch. "You don't care."

"Why would you think that sweetie?" Sasuke asked.

"Because of the way you acted when we were coming back from the movies. It's obvious you don't really care."

"Naruto I didn't want you to hold my hand because someone could see and tell Itachi."

"So what if Itachi knows."

"He has high expectations for me Naruto."

"So your ashamed of me."

"That's not it at all. It's just that he never was keen about me dating anyone. Just think about how he'll react if he finds out I'm dating a BOY. A boy that he never even liked."

"Since when do you care about what someone else thinks?"

"It's not that I care so much as I don't want to lose my only living relative."

"I guess I understand what your saying."

"Look Naruto eventually I will have to tell him and then we'll see how that unfolds. Who knows, maybe he will except you as one of us."

"Yeah and maybe you'll go blond and we'll have a kid."

"You never know."

END FLASHBACK

'I can't believe I did that too him. But what did I do? Whatever I did must've really freaked him out because he's been avoiding that conversation all night. And that scar. When did he get that? If I did that I'll never forgive myself.' 'I can't believe I cheated on him,' Sasuke thought. 'I should have known he still loved me. That it was just the alcohol. I can't believe I did that to him. He was always so good to me. Even when I treated him like shit.'

FLASHBACK

"Naruto please stop trying to hold my hand," said Sasuke.

"Why should I?" Naruto asked teasingly.

"Because we're in public," said Sasuke.

"But Sasuke."

"No Naruto."

"Please."

"Naruto you know what will happen if Itachi found out about us."

"But Sasuke I love you."

"Later Naruto."

"Fine you bastard."

FLASHBACK

'Why didn't I see it before,' Sasuke thought. 'I was the reason he became an alcoholic. It was my heartlessness that drove him to drink. That's it! Tomorrow after school I'll end it with Orochimaru. That way Naruto will never find out. Ever. . .' Soon both boys fell asleep, their pain stirring around inside them.

A/N: Yay chapter done! I'm sorry it's long though. The story is almost at an end. Waaaaah! But I do have ideas for a sequel so Yay! Part of me wants this story never end because I'm having so much fun writing it. But part of be wants to end it now so I can start on the sequel. I'm dealing with very confusing emotions right now. Anyways I would like to say the story WILL get more fast-paced from here on out. Peace Out! \\/('.')
