Chapter 2

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!", Naruto commanded bringing his hands together rapidly duplicating himself several times. Each of the Naruto began climbing one on top of the other as quickly as they could as the final Naruto on the top caught Sasuke as the tower of Naruto's came crashing down. As each of the duplicated Narutos disappeared with a small cloud of smoke, Sakura ran towards Sasuke who laid sprawled out in the arms of the real Naruto who had caught him.

"Sasuke-kun!", Sakura cried as tears ran down her face as she rushed to the side of her heart's desire.

Both Sasuke and Naruto began to stir as Sasuke slowly raised himself into a sitting position, still unaware he was in Naruto's arms. Naruto, whose shirt was partially torn, and pants ripped at it's side due to the crash, held on tightly to the boy laying within his arms. Sasuke turned his head and saw Naruto with an exhausted expression on his face, breathing heavily and noticed now what the tight feeling around his body was. Sasuke forcefully drew his hands up to Naruto's chest and pushed him to the ground as he unsteadily got to his feet.

"Sasuke..", Sakura began, but saw an anger in Sasuke's eyes she had never seen before. An anger that filled her with fear. Sasuke limping on his right knee began to slowly walk away leaving a stunned Naruto on the dusty ground.

"Sas...", Naruto started to speak as a group of other villagers began to arrive at the scene of the accident trying to see what was the cause of Sakura's scream. Seeing Naruto laid out on the ground, many began pointing their fingers and screaming at him:

"What have you done now! Do you know how hard we are working trying to rebuild this village, and here you are fooling around and destroying everything we have been working on!".

Naruto, shaking slightly now, unsure of what to say to the now apparent mob, slowly picked himself of the ground and attempted to explain, but was drowned out by the harsh cursing from the adults around him. Sakura stared at the unsightly scene, as she also began to try and explain as one villager grabbed Naruto's arm.

"If the third was still here, what do you think he would say, WHAT DEAMON CHILD!".

Sasuke stopped walking away and turned around slightly to look at Naruto. Sakura brought her hands to cover her mouth, her eyes wide with shock. Naruto, looked into Sasuke's eyes and saw the hate now in them. Jerking his arm lose, Naruto turned and ran away from the group as fast as he could, leaving the sounds of curses and screams behind him.

Jiraiya stood outside Naruto's apartment door and knocked again for the third time, assuming Naruto was still asleep inside. Trying to see if the door was open, Jiraiya tried the handle, as the door creaked open. Stepping inside, he saw how much the room resembled Naruto. It was filled with various trinkets, a simple fridge, kitchen, and yet it was very much empty inside. Jiraiya sat the food he had brought for the boy on the table and called his name as he looked around. Seeing that Naruto was no where to be found Jiraiya, began to walk through the door as he heard a loud stammering of feet running towards him. Naruto, not seeing Jiraiya, crashed straight into him sending both of them crashing to the floor.

"OI NARUTO! You should be more careful Baka...", Jiraiya jokingly spoke to him, but suddenly stopped as he saw the teary red eyes, and the tear stained cheeks of Naruto. Naruto quickly got of from the floor and began to run away from Jiraiya, as Jiraiya, reached out and grabbed Naruto's arm, holding the boy tightly, not letting him go. Naruto screamed at Jiraiya, the tears flowing uncontrollably now, to let him go as Jiraiya brought Naruto's face to his chest and held on to him in a tight hug, as Naruto broke down, both falling to the floor in a tight embrace as Naruto cried on.

"Sasuke-kun!", Sakura shouted after Sasuke as he continued limping his way through town.

"Sasuke, you need to go see Kakashi Sensei to get your leg fixed..SASUKE!", Sakura pleaded. Sasuke ignored her and continued slowly dragging himself down the dirt path towards his house. Sasuke paid no attention to the pain for his mind was racing, trying to sort out what had just happened. He saved me...again. Sasuke thought anger building inside him. WHY! Why does he always have to be the one to save me...why..can't I save him. Again Sasuke stopped himself, a deep anger swelling inside him. NO, FUCK NO, I'm no fag...fucking Naruto, it's his fault...stupid faggot Naruto...",

Sasuke, suddenly stopped and turned around and grabbed Sakura by her arms and pulled her towards him. Sakura, taken by surprised half screamed, and half mumbled her words, as Sasuke forced his tongue down her mouth. As suddenly as he had started, he suddenly stopped and pushed her away from him, and stared at her, a look of disgust on his face. Sakura starred at him as if she was starring at a complete stranger.

This was it. This was her first kiss, and it was not a kiss of love. It was a kiss taken from her by force. By force by the one she was willing to give it up to. Sakura brought her right hand across Sasuke's face as she slapped him hard. Sasuke starred at her, unmoved by the force of her slap. He, gently now, brought his right hand to her face.

"I'm sorry Sakura...", he cooed into her ear as he kissed her again. Sakura, unsure of what to do, allowed Sasuke to continue, as he slowly brought them both to a small patch of grass near the empty road as he began caressing her body. Bringing his lips back to meet hers, a sudden flash on Naruto popped into Sasuke's mind. Sasuke suddenly stopped as he recalled the utter sadness of Naruto's face as he ran from the mob. Grudgingly Sasuke pulled himself of Sakura, as he saw the devastation on the girl's face.

"Sasuke...", Sakura began, "am I...am i not good enough for you.", she spoke trying to hold back the tears. "Don't you want me?".

Sasuke turned away from her and began walking back to his house, and now realizing he was clenching something tightly in his left hand. It was a yellow piece of clothing, with a partial blue dye. Sasuke clenched the cloth tighter as his knuckles turned white.

"I don't know what I want..."

Sasuke began limping home again, leaving Sakura laying, alone.
