Lol. Shortness! But it's just to relieve all you crazy crazy ass fangirls threatening to destroy me if I killed off Sasuke. He's alive, ladies. A-L-I-V-E. So stop crying XD I still have no idea where he fuck this is going, and I hope to bring back my baby Itachi (Ohohoho, you all thought I killed him off! >:3 YOU THOUGHT WRONG!)

-Adding in that oh so adorable KakaIru (light, thank you) I'm not a super fangirl. ENJOY! X3-

I rushed into the hospital, running down the hallway, getting violent and intentional shoves to my shoulder as I passed "doctors". The tears were still in my eyes, but I could easily detect that pink tint that was Sakura's hair. She stood outside one of the doors, looking at the floor with misery. I flung myself at her as I uttered out a loud cry.

"SAKURA-CHAN!"

She caught me in a tight embrace, and I cried against her. I know I've been crying a lot lately, but there is so much sadness locked inside me, and this is the only way to get it out without means of violence.

Gaara and Lee stood behind me, watching at the dramatic scene. No one else noticed, nor cared. Some snarled at us, and some began shoving us with their elbows again as they passed. I buried my face in her bosom, crying and crying as we were ignored by the medical team. Sakura brushed her smooth fingers through my hair, kissing me here and there, and singing little soft words of love into my ear. At one point, Lee came up to me and comforted me, as Gaara shyly scooted forward. And as they tried to get me to stop my waterworks, I heard that voice I hadn't heard in months.

"...Naruto?"

I looked up slowly, my eyes red and blurry, to see the face of my surrogate father. The scar running across his nose had never been more beautiful to see.

"...What is wrong, Naruto?" he asked me with a sad frown and worried eyes. And all I could do is throw myself at him and cry in his arms. He accepted me warmly, cuddling me against him. Kakaii-sensei stood just behind him, watching me with only one visible eye. My throat was raw with sobs, but still I managed to say something.

"...Iruka-sensei..."

"What is it Naruto?"

"...I'm sorry...I'm so sorry..."

"...There's nothing to be sorry about..."

"...But I left..."

"Naruto...You had one of the greatest intentions I've ever seen...There is no need to be sorry. Ever..." he whispered to me as he dried my tears. I looked up at him with red eyes, a melancholy smile that would have brought anyone to tears on my lips.

"But he killed everyone...He killed everyone...I can't be forgiven, Iruka-sensei..."

"That was Kyuubi, not Naruto. Not the Naruto I love."

I crushed my face to his chest as another wave of sadness hit me. I had nothing else to say, and all I wanted was Iruka-sensei's comfort.

Because this is all my fault.

Iruka-sensei transferred us to a chair, with me huddled up against him like a child, crying still. Everyone was silent, looks of grief upon their faces as they listened to my weeping.

They were thinking they could have stopped this.

They were thinking that if they had protected me, I wouldn't be crying like this.

They were thinking if they had protected me, I would have never run away.

But here I am, crying out my eyes because I have always taken the blame. I'm taking the blame this time, because I know it's my fault, and they can't be sorry for me.

Because I am the Kyuubi.

The door swung open to reveal Tsunade-baba. She looked down at me, not saying anything to me. The silence always meant bad things.

"...Naruto-kun..." she began quietly, but I held my palms against my ears and screamed, making Iruka-sensei flinch.

"I DON'T WANT TO KNOW! PLEASE! I JUST WANT TO GET OUT OF HERE AND NEVER COME BACK! I JUST WANT SASUKE!"

Everyone was silent again, and my fingernails were digging into my skull. It was so painful, but not as painful as my chest.

This is how it feels to have your heart broken?

After a moment, I huddled my knees up to my chest so I could hide my face as sorrow overtook me. But Tsunade stopped me, pulling my legs down and giving me a kiss on my forehead. I looked up at her with tears streaming down my face. She smiled at me, and I just wanted to cry. She touched my belly, and I realized she knew.

"Stress is going to bring you a miscarriage, Naruto-kun. Shush, calm down, love."

"...How can I calm down?" I asked, quietly seething as more tears escaped my eyes. And then, the uttered the words I have never been more relieved to hear:

"Sasuke's fine, Naruto-kun. He's awake now."

---

He was sitting up in his hospital bed, flipping lazily through a medical book that seemed to have made no sense to him at all as he scowled at the words. I watched him with big cerulean eyes, stepping through the door timidly, and that got his attention. He smiled at me, but I did nothing. I stood as still as I could, barely even breathing.

"Urasontonkachi," he called out to me, but I just stared at him. He blinked at me, and furrowed his eyebrows.

"...Aren't you going to say anything to me, Naruto?" he asked, but I still did nothing.

"Well then, I am still recovering, so I guess I'll sleep." And with that, he turned away from me and fell back onto his pillow.

"...I'm sorry...I'm so so sorry...I just...I...I..."

He turned to me, and the tears were streaming down my face quickly. I was trembling now, trying to hold myself together without shattering into a million pieces in front of him. He watched me with wide eyes as I began sobbing, not even finishing what I was trying to say. Leaping from his hospital bed, he stepped toward me to gently touch my shoulder with his long forgotten touch. I sobbed louder as he took me into his arms completely, and as he kissed my forehead, I almost let out a scream of pain. It was hurting so much. I wrapped my arms around his neck and cried as loudly as I could, ignoring the bangs on the walls from angry doctors. But as I lost all ability to walk, Sasuke was brought to the floor with me, holding me tightly without saying a word, just holding me. He pet my blond head, kissing me over and over again so the feeling would last. He ran soft hands under my jacket and to my bare back, where he massaged small little circles into it. And reaching another hand around to my stomach, he felt the soft warmth of the baby growing within me. And during all this, I whispered into his ear.

"...I missed you..."

And he would whisper in my ear...

"...I missed you too..."

And in exchange of these words, Neji had somehow perched himself at the window overlooking us. He turned to his cousin, who was bushing like mad, her nose bleeding.

"Hinata-sama, did you know anything about this?"

"N-No, Neji Ni-san...N-Naruto-kun w-will be ha-happy now!"

"...Are you jealous, Hinata-sama?" Neji asked with consideration. Hinata shook her head violently.

"...I KN-knew this would ha-happen eventually!"

"...It was quite obvious, wasn't it?"

"...J-Just keep it q-quiet, Neji Ni-san!"

"Why?"

"...I don't want to see Naruto c-cry ever again..."

Neji looked thoughtfully at her shy stuttering cousin.

"...Sure. What ever you want, Hinata-sama."

And as the two Hyuuga' watched from the window they were found out by a certain person in green.

"Neji-kun, you shouldn't be eavesdropping."

"...I'm not eavesdropping, I'm WATCHING," he corrected Lee. Lee rolled his brown eyes. Hinata looked up at Lee timidly.

"L-Lee-san, what is w-wrong with Naruto-kun?"

Lee looked at her strangely, but let shine his bright smile.

"Why, he's pregnant, Hinata-sama!"

And so that was all that was seen of the Hyuugas as Neji jumped from the roof to save the freefalling Hinata, who had just fainted, leaving a triumphant Lee in her stead.
