Don't Own Naruto, Sadly.(damn disclaimors)

As An Added Note:

I would like to thank the fact that with all the stories I've done, I'm proud none of them have been reported, because, to be honest, I really don't remember any of the context in the majority of them. I quit working on them and then things are...deleted from memeory... .

Chapter 5:

Naruto scooted closer to Sasuke and wrapped both arms around him, pulling him into a hug. After about fifteen minutes, he was asleep. Naru-kit was above his head and Sasuke was next to him. Both boys felt safe for that time and Sasuke was willing to admit, he needed Naruto now more than ever. That is, now that Naruto knew his little secret and was willing to help him. He needed Naruto. Sasuke really was holding on by a thin strand of string, almost at loss for hopes. He wanted life to end for him, but he wanted to live for his friends. The kit and the dobe, that was.

Dream

"What would Mikoto think little brother?"

"Don't call Mom by her name! You don't even deserve to call her Mom! You ungreatful bastard! Mom and Dad did everything for us to make us happy and you turned your back on them, slaughtering them!"

"Don't you get it Sasuke? I only wanted power. Yes, I regret what I did but I wouldn't go back and change it. This is life. It's fate. And fate has us destined to fight each other to the end. In the end, way back then, despite how much power she had, Mikoto Uchiha had no chance of surviving against me. I proved myself to them by slaughtering them all. Including the kit-loving Mother of ours."

"BASTARD! I'LL MAKE YOU PAY FOR EVERY LIFE YOU STOLE!"

End

Sauke bolted upright. As he did, he felt a limp arm fall from him chest to his lap and his eye bolted to his right. He sighed in relief when he saw that it was just Naruto, sleeping.

Did I really let him wrap his arms around me? Who cares. I was warm and felt safe. Sasuke thought to himself. He looked at the clock. Twon in the morning. He was agitated now. He knew he wouldn't get back to sleep.

"Sasuke?" A groggy and sleepy voice sounded.Sasuke looked down to see Naruto looking up at him, eyes showing he was still really tired. Naruto sat up, his ocean blue eyes met Sasuke's onyx eyes. His blonde hair was slightly messy, but was straight down on him, not spiked like normal. Sasuke examined the still sleepy blonde and noted his features.

Naruto looks better like that. His hair, that is...Huh? That's when Sasuke realized Naruto was only in a pair of shorts. He thanked the gods that they weren't boxers. Sasuke, however, still had his t-shirt on and his shorts. His hair was matted down to his face due to the cold sweat he had broken into while asleep.

"Sasuke? You there?" Naruto asked, waving a tired arm infront of the raven-head boys face. Sasuke snapped out of his thoughts and nodded.

"You should go back to sleep."

"You too, Sasuke-san. You'll get sicker if you don't."

"I can't sleep..."

"Take a hot shower. It always helps me." Sasuke nodded and stood, glancing back at Naruto, whom still sat.

"Naruto?"

"I'm going to sit up and wait on you."

"But..."

"Incase you need something." Sasuke nodded and walked into the bathroom. After five minutes, Sasuke walked out, hair still matted down to his head, neck and face, only from wamr water this time. Sasuke, however, looked cold. Naruto noted that the house was cold at that.

"Do you ever have the heat on?" Sasuke shook his head.

"House is always the outside tempurature. Unless I want it changed..." Sasuke climbed back in bed and Naruto wrapped his arms around the wet and cold looking Sasuke.

"I'll keep you wamr till the blankets do their job." That made Sasuke blush. Why was he letting Naruto get so close to him like that? He was straight, for all he knew. He knew Naruto was straight. Naruto wouldn't throw anyone other than Sakura a longing stare for love. The only thing he wanted from anyone else was friendship, so why was this getting to poor Little Sasuke? Sasuke just snuggled up to the blonde, wanting the attention the blonde was wanting to show him. Naruto sure was doing a good job in treating him no different than he usually would and this made Sasuke long more for the young boys touch. No, Sasuke wasn't gay, not at all. He was just wanting the feeling of having someone there for him. Sasuke was finaly calm and at three am, was fast asleep again, for what Naruto could tell. Naruto, on the other hand, couldn't sleep.

What was Sasuke dreaming about? Why was he so scared? Damnit Naruto! It could have been what he told you earlier! Go back to sleep! Let Sasuke know you can handle life like he can. Let him know you won't start acting different! With that thought. Naruto shut his eyes then felt a hand run through his hair.

"Stop thinking dobe. Go back to sleep." Naruto blinked, really confused by now. Sasuke then began to play around with Naruto's hair.

"Sasu...ke?" Naruto's now sleepy voice sounded.

"Mom use to do this when I couldn't sleep. Put me out in less than five minutes. Now stop talking, kay?" With that, in less than ten minutes, both boys were asleep.

A/N: I hope you liked this chapter. I made a quick finish at 8:30 am since there was no school because of the snow here. Please do review. And also, keep in mind that I will use flames to heat my house this winter. It's really cold.
