Don't Own Naruto, Sadly.

Chapter 3:

The next morning, I was up before Sasuke, so I took the liberty to cook. I swear it looked like the teme never ate anymore. And come to think of it, that's when he started to get sick durring our training. I pushed that thought aside, afraid to believe it. After I cooked, which took a couple hours, I went to check on Sasuke, then realized why he wasn't up. One, it wasn't a day we had to meet. Two, it was still really early in the morning. Naruto...or the kit, raised it's head at me with a look of happiness and I couldn't help but smile.

"Come on. I made enough for all three of us." I picked him up and carried him into the kitchen, making him a small bowl of the stuff. After about thirty minutes, I heard the shower turn on. Sasuke was finaly up. Fifteen minutes later, the shower goes off and another five minutes go by and Sasuke's in the kitchen.

"Smells good in...When the hell did you get here!" He looked at me, half confused. I sighed and was about to speak when he smacked himself in the head.

"Damnit damnit damnit damnit! I'm such an idiot! Gomen Naruto, I know when you got here."

"Sasuke, have you been eating?" Sasuke looked at me, tilting his head.

"Yeah, why?" He was lying. That was an easy look to figrure out. I knew him way too well and knew he was lying to me. I sighed heavily.

"Sasuke! Why aren't you eating!" I snapped, standing and slamming my hands on the counter. The kit had tooken to explore the house moments before.

"Because I'm not all that hungry!"

"You're going to die!"

"I will not!"

"How long?"

"What do you mean?"

"Since you've ate."

"Not long at all."

"Lier."

"Say what you want."

"Because I know it's true! Sasuke, you're going to kill yourself!"

"And why the hell do you care!" Sasuke ran from the house. Damnit. Sasuke, you bastard! I thought, then took to chasing him. He didn't get far before Kakashi stopped him.

"Sasuke, How are...Huh?" He looked at me as I came to a stop, an angered look in my eyes at Sasuke. Sasuke turned to me.

"Leave me alone damnit! YOU'RE NOT MY FUCKING MOTHER! GOT IT! I DON'T NEED YOU OR ANYONE ELSE TELLING ME HOW TO FUCKING RUN MY DAMNED LIFE! I'LL STARVE MYSELF TO DEATH IF I WANT!" Sasuke then turned tail and ran. His yelling drew a crowd and Kakashi's eyes widened.

"He's...not eating is he?" I shook my head and Kakashi took off after him, me in close chase. We finaly caught him, seeing he wasn't able to get too far. He had collapsed by the river-side, laying there. He slowly sat up and glared.

"Leave me alone. I don't need you or anyone else. Thought I made myself cl..." There was a splash and Sasuke was cut off.

Kakashi's PoV

"Leave me alone. I don't need you or anyone else. I thought I made myself cl..." I couldn't take him anymore, so I kicked him, sending him into the low streamed river. He made a wrather large splash, considering his current size. He was so small. I hadn't really realized this till Naruto and him argued in the streets moments ago. It sickened me to know one of my students was anerexic. His head came above water, as he choked a bit. I walked over to him ontop of the water, knealing, turning the water into a cage so he couldn't escape. He glared at me a moment.

"Let me out damnit!"

"No. Tell me why."

"None of your damn business. I do as I DAMN WELL PLEASE!" He began to struggle, only making him exaughsted. I sighed and had no choice.

"If you don't quit, I'll show you true fear, Sasuke Uchiha."

"Try it." I smirked and pulled my headband up off my eye, releasing the Sharingan energy. I knew this got to Sasuke whenever he was like this. His eyes widened and I submerged him under water, letting the cage fill, so he couldn't breathe. he looked up, paniced. His eyes showed fear. I waited a moment. I heard Naruto's pleads to let him come up. I waited. Sasuke paniced more and breathed out, his eyes widening. I waited five seconds and let him up, he backed to the oppisate side of the cage, gasping for air, eyes pleading for me to ler him go. He asked for it. I let him go and he went back under water. I controled my chakra and recovered my eye. His head came above water and he stayed there until I was gone. Sasuke was going to fear me for a while, but he had it coming. I walked away and left the two boys.

Normal PoV

The next day

Sasuke had ate the nigth before with relunctance. He went to training with Naruto, taking the cub with him. Unlike normal he sat out and played with the cub, a spaced look in his eyes. Sakura stopped arguing with Naruto when she noticed Sasuke's weird behavior.

"Sasuke?" He didn't look up.

"Huh-uh. Let him be a while, kay? He had a rough day yesturday." She looked at Naruto, a curious look, then walked over to Sauske.

"Sasuke? Are you alright?" He just nodded and continued to tease the kit now named Naruto. She sighed heavily and in a puff of smoke, Kakashi was there. Sasuke looked up some, returning to his preoccupation. Kakashi took a quick glance at him and there was a small tension between the two. Sasuke was visibly showing his fear as he didn't look up from the pup, Kakashi staring at him a moment.

"Let Sasuke be! There's things he doesn't want to mess with!" naruto snapped. Kakashi turned to him.

"Right. Let's start then. Sakura, Naruto, time to practice." With that, the two kids went to do the usual rutine. Sasuke was still playing with the cub and never payed attention. After while, Sasuke felt eyes on him. He looked up and backed up into the tree, his eyes meeting the only visible eye on Kakashi.

"Calm down Sasuke. Training's been over for five minutes. I went ahead and sent the others home." Kakashi sat infront of him.

"Then... I should... start heading...home." It was almost like Sasuke was dazing in and out of reality.

"Sit." Sasuke remained sitting. "About yesturday, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you that much."

"I-it's alright...It was...nothing really...I...I deserved..."

"Stop it, Sasuke, you're not alright. Did I trigger any memories you wanted to forget?"

"N-none..." That was another lie. Kakashi knew it.

"Sasuke. I need you to tell me."

"I-it's nothing I...I can't handle..."

"Theres' something you're afraid of. I can tell. The way you're acting, talking, your chakra. Sasuke, tell me."

"I can handle it, okay! The last thing I need is help from AN ADULT!" Sasuke stood, grabbing Naruto, about to run off when Kakashi caught him.

"I'll do everything I can think of to torture you until you tell..."

"I WAS RAPED!" Sasuke tensed up, fear taking control, his voice working on it's own, backing himself against the tree, holding the kitsune, dropping to the ground. He shook from all the fear he had. There was no getting by this one. Kakashi froze up, staring at Sasuke. He sure was good at hiding things like that, until memories are jogged.

"Explain. When?"

"Years ago. I was locked in a cage, thrown in water, nearly drowned, raped, beaten. Now let me go!" He stood, only to pass out. Kakashi caught the kit and him at the same time.

"S-sasuke..." He put him on his back and carried him and the kitsune home. Naruto was there, cooking again.

"Kakashi-sensei? Huh? Sasuke!"

"You're right Naruto, things don't need to be brought up." He sat Sasuke in his room and walked into the kitchen.

"Sensei?"

"Keep a close eye on him." With that, Kakashi walked out. Naruto walked into Sasuke's room, the kit Naruto close behind. He looked at him, afraid for Sasuke. What was wrong with him? Nauro Uzumaki walked into the kitchen and turned the stove off, picking up Naruto-kit and taking into Sasuke's room with him. He shut the door, locking it.

"Let's rest and keep Sasuke company." With that, Naruto and Naruto-kit climbed in the bed and fell fast asleep with Sasuke. After while, Sasuke woke up to see Naruto fast asleep, close as if protecting him from something. Sasuke sighed and got up, walking into the kitchen.

"Damn...I had to do that huh?" He looked down when he felt something furry rub against his leg. "Naru-kit. Hey there pal." He knealed and pet the kit, watching as it nuzzled his hand.

Damnit. Why can't I forget now? I was always able to push it aside before. Why now? Mom... Sasuke sat down and played with Naruto-kit more. After a few minutes, there was a bit of noise and Naruto stood in the door way.

"Hey dobe." Sasuke didn't look up from the kit, his voice forcefuly back to it's normal tone. "Finish dinner." That's when he looked up. Naruto just smiled a bit.

"Kay. Sasuke..." Naruto was already walking over to the stove.

"Yeah dobe?" Sasuke was now standing, holding the kit.

"If I tell you some things, will you tell me what's got you so worked up?" Sasuke was taken aback by this and looked at him a bit, then away.

"Sorry Naruto. There are some things I want to keep to myself, as there are things I know you want to keep to yourself."

"But it's you. We've been friends for a while now, and we know how the other feels. I just want to know why you're so afraid of sensei now. You use to be so...on going with him and always went at him like he was your target...or close to it." Sasuke just smiled.

"I'll tell ya later dobe. When did you learn to cook anyway?" Sasuke had sit the kit down and was sitting on the counter next to the stove. Naruto looked up and jumped.

"Gah! When the hell did you get there!"

"I'm light, which means I'm quite. And I've been sitting here for a few minutes." Naruto sighed and finished up their dinner.

"And to answer the cooking question, I've had to know for a while now."

"And here I thought you only ate ramen."

"Nope. I do get tired of it." Both boys laughed, Sasuke, ofcourse, was greatful for having Naruto around. After while, the two walked out onto Sasuke's roof just near his window, looking up at the stars. It was a warm night and all they really needed were pillows.

"So Sasuke...What had you afraid of Sensei."

"You can't treat me any differently if I tell you. No matter what."

"Deal."

"See...I was uh..."

Author: Does Sasuke tell Naruto, or what? And what's with naming the kit Naruto-kit? Naruto (the) fox. . Had too. It was cute and fit. Besides, you'll see more of why I decided that in the future.
