Knock knock. "Hey, Naru, need to get up." Then the voice was gone.

I groaned into the pillow my face was muffled by, taking my head up and squinting in the darkness or the room. An instant headache racked the inside of my skull and I clutched my head to stop the pain. Shit…how much did I drink last night ? I groaned again and tried, very carefully, to move myself from the bed. Being me, my feet got tangled and I fell face first to the tile below.

"Naru, get off the floor !" I heard the voice of Dei ring from somewhere in the house.

After great amount of struggling, I was finally ready for the day. Well, as far as getting ready for Saturdays are. I sunk into the battered sofa and switched the t.v. onto The Looney Tunes Show, cuddling up with the huge teddy bear Dei had put there to 'distract from the alien couch'.

"So Naru, whatcha wanna do today?" My blonde friend asked, setting a plate of hot bacon, eggs and hash browns on the small coffee table before me.

I shrugged and reached for a piece of bacon, relaxing in the couch again and taking a bite. "I'm up for anything that does not include sunlight and energy."

"'Morning, you worthless piece of shit." Sas said, kissing me in the middle of my head and stealing the spoon of eggs I was about to eat.

I threw the spoon at Dei, not wanting the combination of whatever they were doing last night in my mouth. He winked at me and licked the air between us, throwing another, more sanitary spoon my way. "Hey Sas. What's the plan for today ?"

He stopped kissing Dei for a moment to look at me with a blank expression. "I'm sure Dei and I can think of something. You could join…"

I blinked before blanching then trying to settle my stomach. "Uhh, I'll pass, thanks."

"Suit yourself." He whispered between kisses.

Ew. Its almost like watching you parents go at it like baby monkeys. Just plain wrong. I finished my food, put the dishes in the sink and maneuvered my way around the grinding teenagers before grabbing my hoodie by the door and going outside.

The crisp morning air greeted me and a cool breeze tinkled my skin. I allowed myself a smile, dropping Buddhist style to the step and just enjoying the cool shade. It would have been perfect if this was actually Sasuke's bedroom balcony and Sasuke was only a few feet behind me, sleeping soundly and snoring lightly. I let my mind drift, thinking of how he'd soundlessly awake and come find me on the balcony. He'd wrapped his strong arms around me and whisper -

"Good morning."

Yeah, just like that. And when I didn't respond since I was too busy being happy I was there, he'd say -

"Are you ignoring me?"

Then I'd raise an eyebrow and smirk at him and he'd comment -

"Dobe, answer me."

Yeah, just like that. Wait…my imagination is not that good. I opened one eye and sure enough , there was Sasuke. He was sporting a leather jacket with a dark blue shirt that clung in all the right places underneath. His jeans perfect as usual and his sneakers impeccable. He had his weight shifted to his left leg and his hands buried in his pockets. His hair was actually in a low ponytail today as he arched an eyebrow and smirked at me knowingly.

Of course, having a Greek god infront of you while you wore real short shorts and a huge tee that read 'HUG ME NIGGA !' on it, didn't make you feel all that wonderful. Especially when your suppose to be really cold towards said god, then it REALLY does nothing for you. I put on my best blank face.

"What are you doing here?"

"I came to tell you something. But obviously it's a bad time … does that shirt come in any big boy sizes ?"

He mused.

I glared at him. "Uchiha, get your business done so you can leave."

He chuckled. I tried to ignore the way it caressed my skin almost like a song. A very sad love song. "Like I'm about to divulge intel here. Go inside, put on a man's t-shirt and let's go."

"So what about the shorts?"

His obsidian sparkled with amusement. "Those you can leave on. They actually make you look good."

"Are you insulting me or flirting with me?"

"Whichever gets you out of that horrendous shirt faster. No, actually I think I like it." He took out his phone and snapped a pic before I could even blink, "That's a keeper."

"Give me that phone." I threatened. Gods know what he'll do with it.

"No." He replied calmly, eyes glued to the phone with whatever he was doing.

"I said hand it over, emo freak." I was on my feet now, moving to get the accursed device.

"What did you call me?"

"You heard me, angst maniac. Give me the freakin' phone."

"Call me another thing that has to do with some stereotypical emo and I'll personally ensure you won't be able to walk for weeks."

"Emo McStoicson ." I said slowly , smirking at my victory. Which was short lived, since the next thing I know, I was staring into the deadly smirk of Sasuke and then everything went blank.

Kyuubi's P.O.V

"I-Itachi ! Stop...please...it hurts !" I screamed.

"You just need to stretch alittle more ... Shit, I'm almost there ... " He breathed, sweat dripping from his skin onto mine.

"You bastard ... Mmng ... How...how did I end up here ?"

"Just ... *pant* Alittle ... more..."

"Ahhh !"

We collapsed on the sheets below, panting, trying to catch our breaths. When I recovered, I glared at the halk naked man before me. " Why in God's name do you need a light bulb over your bed ?"

"Reasons."

Naruto's P.O.V

A sharp pain ran down my back and I groaned. "Shit, be more gentle , teme !"

"Hn." Was all I got before he attacked my neck with the most ferocious of kisses that I'd ever experienced. How long had he been without sex ? He bit down on the curve of my neck and I moaned his name.

Naruto , get yourself out of this ! This won't end good ! I tried to push him off of me but he wouldn't budge. I was stuck. And I was having a very hard time thinking of ways that this was bad for me . I felt a rough hand slide up under my shirt before velvet lips pressed harshly against mine, almost in a bruising way. My fingers instinctively wound themselves in black tresses and pulled him closer to me. Then I felt him pull away a little, making sure not to really break our connection and I jumped up, wrapping my legs around his waist as he carried me off to his room.

Sure he'd kidnapped me and taken me to his place, trying to rape me within the confines of these walls. But you can't rape the all too willing, now can you ? I heard doors open and guessed we had arrived. I broke away from him, taking a deep breath before latching onto his neck. Licking, sucking, biting, marking . Dear God, his taste was going to drive me insane.

Soft mattress underneath me, silk rubbing against my arms. Bruising kisses on my swollen lips. My shirt, removed. His shirt, torn. Kisses, bites and licks on my exposed chest. Pinching nipples, friction between our erections. Hisses, moans, growls. My pants ripped away, my underwear torn at the seams. His name floating from between my lips, the lick of his lips before licking my head. Arching, gripping, the digging of my nails in his smooth muscled shoulders. Up, down. Up, down. Around. Deep throat. Panting, rasped breaths, broken curses. Whimpering, as he moved from my unsatisfied erection. Whimpering, at the tongue at my entrance. Groaning, at the feel of his tongue, wetting and moving within me.

"Sasuke ... Please...Just fuck me already !"

Smirking, on his part. The fumbling of a belt, the throwing of undergarments, then heat, oh sweet glorious heat pressed against me. Shuddering, gripping, trembling, wanting, needing, lusting. A thrust. Screaming, crying, hissing.

"Naruto ... "

Just my name on his lips, making all this pain worthwhile. Stretching, adjusting, pleasure. A command. The answer. The relentless thrusting, the calls, the screams. Pounding, pounding, fucking, fucking. Too much, too much and then the end.

"SASUKE !"

"Naruto ... !"

I let out another breath, a sigh almost, in content. The feeling of the lazy patterns on my back being traced by fingers that set the nerves on fire. I was lying on my stomach, hand tucked underneath me. Sasuke was beside me of course, his hand supporting his head since he was on his side. I breathed in again, closing my eyes and smiling.

"Naruto." His voice says, almost a whisper but more firmer.

"Mhmm ?"

"When are you gonna stop this ?"

It's a question I've been waiting for, knowing it would come one day. But I still wasn't ready to face it. I laid still for a minute, the designing had ceased. "What are you talking about ?"

"Naruto," He said, angry now, "You know damn well what I'm talking about. Stop playing dumb." I licked my lips and shoved my body off the bed, moving around for my clothes, "Where are you going, dobe ?"

I don't answer him and keep looking for my clothes.

I hear a sound and then arms are around my waist, holding me in place. "Where are you going ?"

Where am I going ?

Kyuubi's P.O.V.

I wiped my hands free of the oil that had accumulated there on the rag and gave the machine before me a once over before nodding to myself and moving off to the service door into the kitchen.

"Kyuu."

I stiffened for a second then sighed, turning to where I knew Itachi would be standing, fixing him with my bet annoyed look. "What is it now, Itachi ?"

"We need to talk." There was something about how he said that, the grave look in his eyes and the over all rigid posture of his body that made me want to bolt. Whatever he wanted to speak about, it was serious . Really serious.

"About what?"

"...Us..."

I raised an eyebrow and scoffed. "Doesn't there need to be an 'us' for us to discuss it? Really Itachi, stop pulling my strings," I swallowed the lump in my throat and threw the rag over my shoulder, "Well, I'm through here. The Town car was the last thing for the debt. I'll, uh, see you around ? Bye." I nodded curtly and turned on my heel, stalking out of the kitchen before my heart started sprouting non-sense again.

"Kyuubi .. wait..."

"For what ? I need to get home and I have chores to tend to. " I was getting hysterical. I didn't want to leave and it was scaring me. I needed to get out of this place. NOW ...

"Kyuu, wait up .. !"

When had I started running ? And why was the house getting bigger ? Where was the exit again ? Damn. I felt the hot liquid racing down my face. Why am I crying ? I need to leave. Where the hell is that exit ? I felt an arm on mine and without thinking, I panicked and swung around my other arm, palm colliding with smooth cheek.

"DON'T TOUCH ME !"

My chest heaved and my breath was coming out jagged, uneven. The sting of my hand and the forming red bruise on a once perfect cheek was the only indication that I'd harmed him at all. His face regarded me with that cool facade that had my insides twisting in knots. Was it the fear of his retaliation ? Or was it the feeling of hurt at causing him pain ? Or was it the sick affection I'd developed in the time repaying my debt to him ? Whatever it was, it wasn't welcomed and the same went for the tears flowing down my cheeks to the tiled floor below.

"I - I - I , uh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to -"

"I left you because I had to."

"W-w-what ?"

"It was never because I didn't love you. Fuck, I didn't love you. Love...love couldn't be that strong. I worshiped you. I was addicted to everything that was you. It was the addiction, Kyuu. I ... I didn't want to damn you to the life of being my lover. I'm an Uchiha. People do all sorts of evil to gain the title or destroy it. You...you were so sweeet, so innocent, I...I couldn't bring myself to drag you into the what it really meant to be Uchiha Itachi's lover. His love. His only weakness. I did it...I did it for you," He cupped my cheek, kissing my closed eyelids, wiping away the tears that were like a river now, "It killed me, you know. Being away from you for so long, knowing I caused you so much pain. It was a necessary evil, for both of us. And not a day went by that I didn't regret all of it but I would do it again and again," He tilted my chin upwards, his scarlet eyes gleaming with unshed tears, "Look how you've grown. Independent, even more beautiful from before. I just wished it hadn't been at the cost of your big heart, your ability to trust. I'm so very sorry, Kyuubi. Please, before you leave, just know that. Know that I loved you, love you and will always love you. And maybe one day, you'll come to forgive me."

My heart lashed at me, same as all those years of hurt, those lonely nights, nightmares of us being apart, dreams of us being together. I missed him, I wanted him, I hated him, I loved him.

"No...I - I...No. No. I don't love you." I ignored the hurt in his eyes and wriggled from out of his grasp. I glared at him and moved around him, walking down the corridor...

Naruto's P.O.V.

I sighed again, splashing my face with the cool water from the marble sink before looking at my reflection in the huge ass mirror. Bite marks all over my neck, ruffled black hair and tired blue eyes. Fingers threaded through the hair of the boy in the mirror, where blonde used to be. I sighed again and jumped at a particularly loud snore coming from the bedroom behind me. I smiled at the thought of Sasuke sprawled out in the huge bed, almost like a normal teen. I straightened the shirt I'd sneaked on, that smelt a lot like Sasuke's earthy smell.

I took a deep breath, drinking in his scent, loving the way I could still feel his hands on me. I stood still for a moment, letting myself revel in the moment before stealing myself and buttoning my jeans. I snuck back into the bedroom to the side of the bed where he lay. I watched him, the ghost of a smile on my lips. I leaned down and pressed my lips to his forehead, stealing off into the night to where Sas waited for me.

I was leaving him again ...

Kyuubi's P.O.V.

I turned the key in the lock and gave a push to the door of the motel I was staying at. The dark room flooded with light as my fingers flipped the switch, my eyes squinting at the flood of light before my fingers turned the lights off again. I rather wallow in the dark, thank you very much. I fumbled around but found the bed eventually and I sank into the material .

I'd left him this time.

I'd caused him the same pain he'd caused me, used the same words he'd used to break me and all that I was.

And I regret it all.

"Kyuubi..."

"AHHHHHHHHHH !... ITACHI ? WTF ! "

"You didn't honestly think I'd give up on you that easily did you ? Uh, does the word Uchiha mean anything to you ?"

I felt the hands that I've been yearning for slip me into an embrace and I melted in the heat that was Itachi. I didn't want to be hurt anymore. Not by the same person, but if I was to be hurt by anyone, I want it to be you. "Kiss me."

"Gladly."

His lips touched mine and all the control that I'd spent years building up crumbled. I tore at his shirt and when it was gone, my fingers made themselves busy with the exploring of the taunt muscles that had developed over our time apart. He tore me off of him and I growled when he nibbled at my ear, fingers teasing my nipples through the cotton of my shirt. I hissed when he grind against me. I think I was going crazy. Clothes became nonexistent and soon the searing pain of being stretched by something bigger than fingers flooded me. But soon it melted into sweet pleasure.

"Itachi ! I love you ... please... harder ! faster... Itachi !"

"Kyuu.."

The relentless thrusting, vicious pounding, monstrous fucking continued all night, until dawn. A new dawn, a new day, a new us ...

Naruto's P.O.V.

"Are you sure?" He asked, turning onto the street that lead to our house.

"Leaving is all I can do. It's best for everyone." I answered, eyes glued to the scenery outside my window.

"Where are we going this time ?"

"I'm going alone this time."

There was silence in the pick up for a while and I knew Sasori was only considering how Dei would feel about losing me, another friend. He himself would miss me, but he was used to it, loved me enough to let me go.

"Naruto ... "

But whatever he was going to say had died in his throat as we pulled up to the house. I spotted the sleek Mercedez Benz and unadulterated fear threatened to choke me. Only one person I know had that type of car in that outrageous colour. I barely registered Sas calling me name, but the scream ripped through the air and I jolted back into reality, running out of the pick-up at the same time as Sasori.

The door flew open and there he stood. Daddy dearest. A sly smile formed on his sickly purple lips. "Naruto, my little weak bitch child, there you are."

I swallowed the instinctive fear and spoke to Sasori, not taking my eyes off my 'father'. "Go check on Dei. Leave him to me."

The redhead glared at the man at the door, glancing at me from the corner of his eye, nodding and moving to the door. His glare intensified as he walked into the house then he disappeared. It was just me and him now.

"Sonnie boy ! Oh how I've missed your sorry ass. Why have you been hiding from me ? Don't you love your father ? The one that took you in, fed you, clothed you, sheltered you ?"

"All you did was abuse me, you son of a bitch." I said through clenched teeth. Before I could even react, there was a slap to my face and a kick to my stomach. Winded, I flew back a few steps because of the impact.

"Language Naruto. Dear, dear, who ever raised you that way ? Oh wait, I did. But I would think you would have more manners," He hauled me across the law by my hair and slammed me into the hood of his car, face first,"Tsk tsk. You embarrass me time..and time again. What am I going to do with you?" He pulled my head back and licked a line from my neck to my ear, "I really missed your tight ass, Naruto."

A tear streaked down my cheek as all the painful memories flooded my brain. He threw my body down on the hood of the car, tearing away at my jeans. "Oh, what this ? Love bites ? Who marked my property , you whore? Was it that prettyboy Uchiha you like so much ?" He slammed his hand on my ass and I squealed in pain.

"Please, just go away."

"Go away ? hmm ... but wouldn't you miss me ? How ungrateful can you get, you piece of trash ?" He raised my torso before slamming it into the unforgiving metal, hard enough to dent the car, "Do you think any of your flimsy friends care about you? Ha ! This is the closest to love as you'll ever get. Maybe after this, I'll go visit them too."

No...no, not my friends ! I flung my body back and half smirked when my head collided with his forehead. I twisted from his grip and threw a punch at his face. It connected with jaw and he fell to the floor. "You can do whatever to me, but don't fuck around with my friends," I spat on his body, "Fucking jackass."

I felt a drop of water and soon it was pouring. The front door flew open and I was engulfed in the embraces of Deidara and Sasori. But as happy as this moment was, I wanted another pair of arms around me. I smiled at them then nodded my head at my dad on the floor. A wicked smile popped up on both faces as I raced away in the direction of the house I was meant to be in.

You push me...I don't have the strength to...resist or control you ... take me down, take me down ...

I ran until my legs were ready to give way. There was a light behind me and I was shocked senseless when I saw Gaara pull up on his favourite bike. "Need a ride ?"

I smiled. "Yeah ..."

Wake you up ... In the middle of the night to say, I will never walk away again , Im never gonna leave this bed...

The rain poured down on us and though the road was slippery and Gaara's speed was something that we would get killed in, I couldn't care. Sasuke , will you be there when I arrive ?

So fall down .. I need you to trust me ... go easy don't rush me, help me out , why don't you help me out ? ...

The familiar shortcut came up, leaves bustling in the wind, almost welcoming in me home. The bike lurched forward and came to a stop. No, no, no. I hopped off and screamed a thanks to Gaara, running through the rain and the garden . Sasuke ...

Take it , take it all, take all that i have...I give it all away, just to get you back ...

I ran up the driveway. What was that ? A car ? Sasuke's on the porch .. with a bag in his hand. Wait.. ! "Sasuke !" A loud boom of thunder. No ! I urged my feet to move faster. "Sasuke !"

He sunk into the exterior of the car and the sleek limo began pulling out and down the driveway. I fell over my own feet, the limo passing me, leaving me behind. "SASUKE !"

I stood up and stared desperately at the red lights of the limo. No ! I took up a few of the stones and began throwing them at the receding vehicle. Soon, it stopped. And a figure stepped out.

"Sasuke !"

"Naruto ?"

You say no, it isn't worth it, and I say no, it isn't perfect ... so I'll stay instead...I'm never gonna leave this bed...Ooohh...

My love bubbled inside me as I ran forward ... Sasuke ... I crashed my lips against his and held onto him like he was life, for he was... he was my life ...

He wrapped his arms around me and crushed me against him. We parted, both soaked at this point. I smiled at him, the paint in my hair disappearing in the rain, soaked gold locks sticking to my face. "Take it...Take it all...Take all that I have..I'm never gonna leave this bed..."

He smiled at me and kissed me as the storm rolled on...
