Shed Blood, Shed Tears
It was decided that the day before the Akatsuki's supposed arrival, Karin, Juugo and Suigetsu would take turns on look out duty since they were more used to small amounts of sleep.
It was 3:26 when they first caught sight of them in the distance from Konoha hills with their binoculars. Karin instantly called Naruto on her phone, "we've caught sight of them, they should arrive here in 50 minutes." Naruto didn't bother answering other than a quick 'ok' before she hung up on him.
He got out of bed and immediately called his boyfriend. The phone was picked up instantly, "they're almost here, head over to my house with your brother now." There was a short silence on the other end, "ok." Naruto was about to hang up but Sasuke's voice stopped him.
"I love you." A small murmur came from down the line and he smiled softly, "I love you too now get your butts down here!" He said before he hung up on his boyfriend and went to wake up his friend and neighbour.
Sasuke and Itachi left their houses nervously as they made their way down the road in their casual clothes. Itachi decided to stay at his house rather than Kurama's so he could get in some quality family time, just in case.
Before he left, Sasuke made sure he hugged his parents a little bit harder for a little bit longer as he whispered 'I love you's over and over again. His Mother seemed worried but his Father held her back and said "a man's got to do what a man's got to do."
Sasuke had a feeling his Father knew what they were about to do.
Without knocking, the duo walked into Naruto's house and were shocked with what they were met with. "Suits?" Itachi asked incredulously as he walked up o his boyfriend and embraced him.
"Yeah, Naruto said it's what they wear when they have gang fights," Kiba said as he shrugged on his suit jacket which was identical to every other suit the rest of the gang wore.
"That and I love looking like I'm from the mafia," Naruto added as he stomped down the stairs with two bags in his hand which most probably held Sasuke's and Itachi's suits. Although Naruto was wearing the same suit as the rest of them, Sasuke thought he looked amazingly hot and so delectably delicious that he had to stop himself from drooling.
Naruto walked straight over to Sasuke and gave him a hard kiss on the mouth which earned some cat calls and groans before he pulled away. He then handed the raven a bag before heading over to Itachi who took a step back with his hands raised, "if you're going to kiss me too I'd rather just not wear the suit."
Naruto stuck out his tongue playfully as he handed him the bag, "that was only for Sasuke, don't flatter yourself." Itachi placed a hand over his heart in mock hurt, "I'm wounded." He said before he took the bag from the other teens grasp.
The blond rolled his eyes at Itachi's antics before he went back over to Sasuke and grabbed his hand before he started pulling him upstairs, "come on, you can come change in my room."
The suit was plain but fancy, and Naruto thought it looked amazingly good on Sasuke. It was a simple, black, pinstriped suit with a plain black tie and a plain white collared shirt. Naruto was not drooling; he was calmly watching his boyfriend try out the outfit.
Sasuke turned to Naruto and smiled, "suits, really?" the blond shrugged nonchalantly, "they're cool, and you look hot in them too so that's a plus." A small blush spread across Sasuke's face as he smiled shyly, "thank you, you look hot too."
Naruto smiled before he got up from his seat on his bed and headed over to his boyfriend. They stood nose to nose in silence before he leant in and gently pressed his lips to the ravens'. The kiss was slow and savoury; it conveyed the desperation and fear they felt as they desperately clung to each other's jackets and tried to pull the other closer.
Eventually, they pulled away when they needed air. They pressed their forehead's together as they breathed heavily for air keeping their strong grip on each other, "I don't want you to be in danger." Naruto muttered softly with a sigh as he closed his eyes. "I thought you said I look hot in a suit."
The blond chuckled at the pout that was most definitely forming on those soft pink lips he loved so much. "No matter how hot you look I still don't want you to get hurt."
Sasuke pulled away from Naruto's grasp making the blond open his eyes in the process; his face was serious, "I promise you right now, Naruto Uzumaki, that I will not let so much as a hair on my head get harmed, ok?" The blond sighed but nodded anyways, "that's probably going to be the best I can get huh?"
Sasuke smirked, "you know it is." A comfortable silence passed over them as they finished up in the room and headed downstairs towards their friends and their future battlefield.
Sasuke shifted uncomfortably in his clothes, bullet proof vests were awkward. He looked back to where the official entrance to the forest was and could vaguely make out the bright yellow tape that separated them from the civilians to make sure nobody wandered in the forest while they were fighting.
He looked to his left and could see the three others in his team conversing silently between them; he had made an effort to become friends with them and they were pretty ok people but they liked to keep to themselves a lot.
His head snapped up when he heard someone approach him and was relieved when it turned out to be Naruto.
He smirked at the familiar blond, "hey, what are you doing here?" He asked as he took a few steps to close the lingering distance between them. Naruto scratched his head nervously while he held his other behind his back, "I, uh, came to give you something."
Before Sasuke could question him, Naruto brought his other hand from behind his back and with it came a sleek, black, amazingly beautiful katana.
Sasuke took it in his hands carefully and carefully touched and inspected the weapon. He slowly gripped the handle and gently pried the sword from its case and stared at the beautiful blade in awe. He held it up and watched the light shimmer off it stunningly. Sasuke experimentally swung the blade and immediately fell in love with the weapon that seemed as if it was made for him. Although it was a weapon made for killing, the blade looked as though it was a mesmerising dancer that moved with elegance and poise.
"I know this isn't the most romantic of presents, but right now I'd rather have you safe more than anything and Gaara told me that you worked quite well with a katana, so I decided to get you one." Sasuke sheathed the weapon before he pulled his boyfriend into a hug and kissed him fiercely on the lips.
Despite the passionate kiss, he smiled tenderly at the blond, "it's beautiful, Naruto, I could think of no better gift, especially at this moment in time."
There was rustling from behind Naruto and they both turned to see Gaara standing there with his hands in his pockets, "sorry to interrupt but they'll be here in 10 minutes, it's time to take our positions."
A grave look passed Naruto's face as he nodded in understanding. Gaara turned to leave but looked over his shoulder and made eye contact with Sasuke before nodding softly and moving on. The trio had heard Gaara's words and had rushed away to take their positions leaving Naruto and Sasuke the only two left.
Naruto pulled Sasuke into his chest and embraced him; he buried his head in the raven's dark locks and sniffed them affectionately, "stay safe." he murmured as the arms wrapped around his neck tightened, "never stray from your team and retreat immediately when I tell you to."
Sasuke nodded into blond locks, "I know." He pulled away slightly before kissing Naruto chastely one more time, "please don't do anything stupid." He whispered against his boyfriends lips.
Naruto pulled away completely and took a step back, he desperately wanted to embrace Sasuke once more but he knew he couldn't.
He gave the raven a cheeky grin, "I can't, it's in my blood to be reckless." Was the last thing he said to his boyfriend before he rushed through the bushes and trees in the direction Gaara came from.
Sasuke watched him leave, a sad smile on his lips, till he couldn't see his blond hair anymore before he walked in the opposite direction from Naruto's and towards his post.
Naruto fell to the ground in a heap; short gasps left his mouth as he tried to take in enough air to calm himself down.
It was over, it was finally over, and he had fought till the end, no matter what.
He looked around at the fallen bodies that surrounded him, all unconscious, then he looked down at himself. His shredded suit, blood stained shirt and beaten body.
He placed a hand over his sore stomach and winced at the pain he felt, pulling away he inspected the deep red blood that covered his hand blearily. He felt so weak and tired, his hand dropped to the floor and he decided to close his eyes just for a while and let all his pain wash away as he drifted.
He felt his consciousness slowly submerge into darkness and his body shut down as he faintly heard his name being called desperately by the person he most definitely loved.

You're welcome and i hope you weren't disappointed.
