Dear Journal:
I have an idea…its been two days since I've seen Sasuke…and the day after tomorrow is the date of his…blindness….but I'm going to see him…and all thanks to Shikamaru and him reminding me of the game! I completely forgot I left the Go game with Sasuke…and today I'll leave the pack of cards…I'm going to see him again…I'm going to see him!
/break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah/
Naruto walked down the stairs and down the hall, meeting up with Kakashi.
"Naruto…you know you are not allowed here…so please leave" Kakashi said. Naruto shook his head.
"I can't…not until I get the GO board…its Shikamaru and he's hounding me down because of it…" Naruto said. Kakashi sighed as he opened the cell.
"You have one hour…" Kakashi said. Naruto looked at him confused. Kakashi smiled under his mask and nodded.
"Just don't tell the hokage…otherwise she promised to have me castrated…" Kakashi said with a sweatdrop. Naruto blinked, not wanting to know why the hokage said that. Naruto entered the cell and noticed Sasuke had his back turned to the cell.
"Sasuke…" Naruto called out. Sasuke quickly sat up and turned around, seeing Naruto. Naruto smiled as Sasuke did the same. Kakashi closed the cell door and took his place once again. Sasuke stood up and walked up to Naruto, hugging and kissing the blonde.
"You have no idea how much I missed you" Sasuke whispered. Naruto hugged him closer and sighed in contentment.
"I've missed you too…" Naruto said. Sasuke pulled away confused.
"But how did you manage to get in?"
"I forgot the GO game…" Naruto said with a grin. Sasuke smirked…it was official…Naruto was number one at surprises.
"And today I have a deck of cards…wanna play poker?" asked Naruto. Sasuke got an idea as he grinned, causing Naruto to blink and Kakashi to pinch his nose before he had a nose bleed. Sasuke sat down on the floor and grabbed the deck of cards.
"How about strip poker?" asked Sasuke. Kakashi choked slightly as he tried to breathe, his fingers covered in blood at the thought. Sasuke rolled his eyes at his former teacher. Naruto agreed as he started shuffling the cards.
"So how do you play strip poker?" asked Naruto. Sasuke sweatdropped, but explained strip poker to his ray of light.
"Oh…oh…OH…I get it…you're a pervert" Naruto said, causing Sasuke to nearly fall over.
"Ok so I am…now you gonna play or not?" Sasuke asked. Naruto nodded in agreement, with his foxy grin in place.
Hours later and uniforms off both Naruto and Sasuke were stripped down to their boxers. Who could've thought Naruto had luck when it came to poker?

Journal:
It was fun today…I saw Naruto and we played Strip Poker. I have to admit that dobe sure does have the devil's luck…he made me strip until my underwear. But the game was cut short as a nearly passed out Kakashi told us of the change of shift. So Naruto had to leave…a shame…I wanted to see him naked XD….but I guess that won't happen…tomorrow…I can't believe it's tomorrow…
Kami-sama…please…help me…
/break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah/
Dear Journal:
My plan worked!
It really worked! I saw Sasuke today…and I'm going to see him
tomorrow…oh kami…tomorrow…tomorrow is Sasuke's date for his
blindness…But it doesn't matter…I will be there for Sasuke…and
be the last thing he sees.
That was…after all…his wish…just when things were getting ok…not better…but ok…and our time is getting closer to an end…was this the right choice? Was shattering my reflection a wise choice? Now…we may both suffer…
/break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah break blah/
Sasuke was led up the stairs. He could feel his heart pounding in his head. Today…today was the day…he would lose his sight…and lose his Naruto. He wished…hoped…prayed for a miracle, but knew it was hopeless. He was led into a chamber, where Tsunade was standing in a corner. There was what looked like a bed in the center of the room, and a few select Jounin were present. There was Kakashi, Iruka, Genma, Gai, Asuma and Kurenai. Iruka looked on sadly, after all Sasuke was a former student of his. Sasuke looked at all the faces, but the one face he hoped to see was not there.
"If you're looking for Naruto…he is forbidden to enter this place…and a barrier was placed around here to make sure of that" Tsunade said as Jiraiya finished with the barrier seal. His hopes were thrown out the window. His eyes sadden…the only person he wanted to see right now was Naruto…not anyone else…not even Kakashi…just…Naruto. Sasuke bit his lower lip as he was led towards the bed, and bounded to the bed. His eyes stared at the ceiling above, resigned to his fate…nothing but sadness and pain engulfing him as his one wish was not going to come true.
Naruto was sent back by the barrier. It was only a matter of minutes…he had to get through.
"Dammit old hag…don't do this to me…" Naruto shouted as he tried once again, getting his hand burned and pushed back. Naruto glared angrily at the door as the red chakra flared about.
"You can't stop me…I will see him…kage bushin no jutsu" shouted Naruto as seven clones appeared. Each clone began to form the rasengan, and all clones at the same time attacked the barrier. The clones were destroyed instantly, and Naruto knew it was Jiraiya's doing. But Jiraiya forgot one thing about Naruto…and it was that he was trained under Jiraiya.
His hands moved quickly to form seals. Bird, dog, rooster, rabbit, and bird again…over and over he formed a hand seal, his eyes forming into red slits as his whisker scars deepened and intensified. He slammed his hand onto the barrier.
"Kai!" he shouted, causing the barrier to burst open. The doors slammed open as a very angry Naruto stepped into the room. Jiraiya blinked…smirking inwardly at the fact that Naruto had managed to break through the barrier. Tsunade glared at Naruto as she continued to form the hand signals for the final seal, causing Sasuke's sight to be permanently lost.
"Sasuke…" Naruto called out. Sasuke was looking at him, smiling at seeing him. Naruto's eyes were back to their blue orbs, and he stared sadly at what was to come. He took a step forward, but ANBU stopped him.
"Please…just let him see me…" Naruto whispered. Tsunade sighed as she nodded, the ANBU moving away to allow Naruto to get closer. Naruto walked around the other side, grabbing onto Sasuke's hand, though he was bounded to the table.
"I finally get to see my ray of light…" Sasuke whispered for only Naruto, though Tsunade had heard him. Naruto smiled, ignoring the other shinobi in the room. Kurenai and Asuma looked on sadly, but made sure to hide their emotions. Iruka felt heartbroken at the sight and had to avert his gave. Kakashi placed a hand on his shoulder reassuringly, keeping his gaze on the two.
"Baka…didn't I say you will have your ray of light before you lost your sight?" Naruto asked as he brushed a strand of hair off Sasuke's face. Sasuke smiled and nodded. He felt more a peace and calm, and was ready to take on whatever Tsunade was going to do to him. He had Naruto by his side…and that was all that mattered to him.
"Tori…" Tsunade said as she looked at Sasuke. Sasuke took a deep breath and stared at the ceiling, closing his eyes as Tsunade placed her hand over his eyes.
"Seal" she said as her hand glowed and Sasuke's face glowed in the same aura. A series of symbols appeared over his eyes, seeping through his eyes. Sasuke let out an agonizing scream as his eyes were being sealed away. Naruto bit his lip as he held onto Sasuke's hand, Sasuke's grip becoming painfully tight.
"Shh…" Naruto whispered softly as his free hand was placed on Sasuke's cheek. Sasuke's screams slowly started to fade away as he lost consciousness.
"Sasuke? Sasuke…Sasuke!" shouted Naruto as he was pulled away from Sasuke by Kakashi and Iruka.
"It's alright brat…he just couldn't handle the pain…he'll wake up soon…" Tsunade said as Sasuke was taken away once again. Tsunade left the room, not bothering to speak to Naruto. Naruto broke the barrier, and was there even though she forbade his presence…even after everything…Naruto still cared for Sasuke? Tsunade didn't understand it…or Naruto for that matter. Jiraiya followed Tsunade out of the room and soon one by one the jounins left the room, leaving only Kakashi, Iruka and Naruto.
"I can't believe she went through with it…" Naruto whispered. Iruka looked at Naruto sadly, feeling the pain of his student and adoptive brother. Iruka held Naruto close, looking at Kakashi sadly. Kakashi sighed as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"It was inevitable…what the hokage says…is to be done…whether we like it or not Naruto…but at least you made him happy…and his wish came true…." Kakashi said. Naruto closed his eyes as he felt the tears sting his eyes. Iruka pulled Naruto into a hug, allowing Naruto to cry. Kakashi pulled a small notebook out of his pocket, handing it to Naruto. Naruto looked at Kakashi, and then at the book, grabbing it.
"Sasuke told me to give it to you…he said you'll be able to cherish it more than him…" Kakashi said as he left the room. Naruto opened the notebook and realized it was Sasuke's diary. Iruka and Naruto left the room. Naruto told Iruka that he would be fine, and then left the premises to the rooftop, where he sat down and read Sasuke's diary, each entry at a time. He wiped away his tears, placing Sasuke's diary in one of his pockets.
He had to see Sasuke again…before he wakes up…to be there when he wakes up…but how without having Tsunade prevent it? Naruto shrugged as he sneaked through the back of the building, heading towards the new Cell Sasuke was going to be kept in until the day of his execution. Naruto ducked between shinobi, concealing his chakra perfectly well as he sneaked into the main cells. There he quietly made his way towards Sasuke's cell, where he lay in his bed sleeping. Naruto stared sadly at Sasuke, making sure none of the guards noticed him nearby.
Naruto saw Kakashi coming his way, and he quickly hid before he was found out. Naruto noticed how the other shinobi were dismissed, and soon realized Kakashi was now on duty to guard Sasuke's cell. But what was there to guard? Sasuke's sight…the most deadly thing…was already destroyed…what was left? Kakashi yawned as he pulled out his Icha-Icha-Tactics.
"Ma…Naruto…how long will you remain hidden…come out already…they are gone" Kakashi said as he kept reading. Naruto cursed mentally at Kakashi's trained ears and trained skills. Naruto stepped away from his hiding spot, staring at Kakashi. The cell to Sasuke's door opened and Naruto looked at him confused.
"What can I say…I'm a sucker for romance…" Kakashi said as he grinned behind his mask. Naruto nodded gratefully as he entered the cell, hearing the soft 'click' of the lock. Naruto walked slowly towards Sasuke's bed, listening to the slightly even breathing of Sasuke. Naruto stared sadly at Sasuke…his form was pale…his face in pain. Naruto picked Sasuke's hand once again softly, staring into the face of his lover…of his torture.
"I'm here…I'll never leave your side…" Naruto whispered. Sasuke gripped Naruto's hand softly, his sense finally coming back to him.
"Naruto…" Sasuke whispered, wincing slightly from the after effects of the seal.
"I'm here…don't move much" Naruto answered as he noticed how Sasuke was trying to sit up.
"You didn't leave me…" he said. Naruto smiled and noticed, but his smiled faltered. Sasuke couldn't see him nod.
"Or course not you bastard…why would I?" asked Naruto. Sasuke smiled slightly…he felt like crying…like crying for what was to come soon. Naruto sat on the bed, and Sasuke noticed it when he felt the weight shift.
"I'll always be here Sasuke…I promised you didn't I?" asked Naruto. Sasuke sat up slowly, and hugged Naruto, resting his head on Naruto's shoulder.
"Don't leave me…" Sasuke whispered. Naruto swallowed the lump in his throat.
"I won't…" he whispered as he held Sasuke close, tears silently falling onto the raven hair's shoulder. Sasuke held onto Naruto as if Naruto was his life boat. His grip tightened as he choked back on a sob. Sasuke couldn't contain the pain and grief as he slowly sobbed onto Naruto's shoulder. Naruto cooed him softly, rocking him slowly as he allowed Sasuke to release his agony, Naruto himself releasing his own grief and agony.
