Naruto was laughing on his way back into the mansion with Jiraiya. He had momentarily forgotten about Sasuke and the creepiness of seeing him with the hole in his heart and such. Jiraiya was telling him about his latest novel. "Oi, Naruto. Speaking of which--here. I snuck one in my bag, she saw the other so I'll save that for another day." He handed Naruto the first volume of Icha-Icha Paradise. "Eh- Ero-sennin! Thank you!" He glomped Jiraiya, having actually wanted it.

Sasuke watched the scene from his perch on the chandelier. He rolled his eyes at the display and glanced at the grandfather clock situated in the far corner of the room. 10.30. He could wait.

Jiraiya bid him farewell at the entrance and went back to his vehicle as Naruto entered and sat on the nearest chair

"I was wondering when you'd get back. You were supposed to be done at 10." Sasuke said as he materialized in front of the blonde.

Naruto yelled in surprise and jumped, but didn't quite make it. He tripped backwards over the chair landing on the floor with a loud racket. "Ow...HEY! Warning next time, Sasuke-bastard!"

"And how exactly do I warn you dobe?" He rolled his eyes and shoved his hand in Naruto's face.

Naruto swatted it away and stood up "Well, don't pop up right in front of me. Walk towards me instead, geez."

Sasuke sighed before disappearing. "So. Why haven't you exorcised me yet?"

Naruto faltered "Uh...um...eh...because...?"

"Hmm...Because isn't an answer."
"Uh, um...well...you seem...familiar...and until I figure that out...well...I'm not trying anything" Naruto was satsfied with his answer.

Sasuke looked at him from his place on the ceiling. "You aren't as hopeless as I thought."

"Whats THAT supposed to mean, bastard?"

"Do you trust me?"

"...maybe..." Naruto didn't like where this was going. Normally people messed with your minds if you said yes...

Sasuke quirked an eyebrow. "Oh?" He let a small smile grace his features.

"Why?" Naruto asked curiously.

"You probably wouldn't believe me if I told you." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. He grimaced when part of the skin on the back of his neck came off. 'I need to get out of this crappy mood, it's ruining the way I look.'

"Try me. I've heard pretty cracked up stories before, being a exorcist, I think I can handle this one."

Sasuke was suddenly in Naruto's face. "Do you belive in past lives?"

Naruto nodded. Obviously becuase of his job he believed in reincarnation.

"What would you do if you needed to tell someone, someone you loved, something that could alter their life? But they didn't remember you. What would you do?"

"Hmmm...I'd do anything that I had done with them in the past life to jog their memory."

"Do you trust me?"

"...yeah."

Sasuke put his forehead against Naruto's. "Don't get mad at me." He kissed him. Sasuke watched Naruto's face intently for any reaction, be it good or bad.

Naruto was shocked and naturally, being shocked, pushed him away. "The hell!"

"Just taking your advice." He bowed his head. "I never meant to make you angry."

Naruto felt heat creep up his neck and his face flushed red

Sasuke vanished again. And this time didn't reappear.

Naruto felt himself calm his beating heart down. 'Wh-why am I...happy?' he thought.

Sasuke stood behind Naruto, his body invisible to the human eye. Blood seeped from the wound in his chest and his eyes sunk further into his skull. He would give anything to get things back to the way they were.

Naruto shok his head before proceeding to his chambers, awaiting the next day of life

Sasuke followed Naruto a smirk played across his lips as he awaited the blonde's reaction when he saw the room. He had even gone the extra mile to get rid of the electric lighting, the room was just as it was those 100 some years ago.

Naruto turned on a light. Nothing happened. He tried desperatly before replacing the bulb. Nothing. He sighed laying down for the night

"I see you got my gift." THe candles that were in the room came to life. The flames cast a warm glow across the room and illuminated Sasuke who was standing at the foot of the bed.

Naruto jumped up in surprise only to trip in the covers and fall

Sasuke walked over and hoisted the blonde to his feet. "Remember anything?"

Naruto yanked away face heating up again

"Seriously. Look around. Does anything come to mind?"

Naruto seemed to have 'flashbacks' of the past...slowly and short. "Eh...s-something..."

Sasuke looke hopeful. "What?"

"Just...stuff...This room from before..."

Sasuke looked even more dead then he did before. "No events? Nothing?"

"No... sorry..."

Sasuke sighed and fell back onto the bed. "That's okay. I just..." He lowered his voice. "Miss you is all."

Naruto put a delicate arm around Sasuke.

Sasuke's head jerked to the side to look at Naruto. "What are you doing?"

Naruto shrugged "For comfort, I guess"

Sasuke rubbed the bridge of his nose and forced the lump in his throat back down. "Thanks, but it's not needed."

Naruto sighed letting go slowly.

"And what are you sighing about?" Sasuke rolled over and burried his head in a pillow, if he started crying he didn't want Naruto to see.

"Becuase...I...I feel a sense of loss." Naruto replied shakily.

"Loss of what?" Sasuke picked his head up and stared at him.

"I don't know...I feel empty..."

"Yeah, well..." Sasuke sighed and sat up. "I'll tell you what you aren't remembering, but you won't believe me."

"Tell me!" He whined bouncing excitedly

Sasuke chuckled. "Just as energetic as I remembered you to be." He layed back on the bed. "You might want to sit down."

Naruto did as he was told and leaned close to listen.

Sasuke sighed before telling Naruto everything, from the day the the Uchiha family bought him as a slave to the day they died. He watched Naruto's face the entire time; he was quite afraid of what the blonde would say when he was finished. Naruto was in shock.

Sasuke grabbed a pillow and put it over his face. "Ya know what? Don't even say anything. I'll leave without you telling me to." He put the pillow back, sat up and swung his legs over the side of the bed. 'Well that was smart, Sasuke! He'll exorcise you for sure now!'

Naruto grabbed his hand "Wait! Don't go...please."

Sasuke sighed for what felt like the hundreth time that night. "Hmm?"

Naruto wrapped his arms around Sasuke's waist

Sasuke tensed. 'I swear if he's doing this just because he feels like he has to...' "Naruto, what are you doing?"

"I-I'm starting t-to remember. Th-the feelings a-are coming b-back..."

"That's just because I told you they should be there. I don't want to force you into soomething that you don't want." He took the arms from around his waist and put them in Naruto's lap.

"N-no...when...when you kissed me before...I-I enjoyed it. I r-really did"

"Then why did you push me away?"

"I was shocked! If someone just kissed you, wouldn't you be shocked too!"

"Not really. I had far too many fangirls when I was alive; I'm used to it."

"Well I was shocked. I mean, I-I'd never been kissed before really..."

Sasuke put their foreheads together. "I don't see why..." He ccupped Naruto's face. "You seem perfect to me."

Naruto blushed deeply "W-well...the one girl I-I liked,...g-got together with s-some creepy e-eyebrow g-guy..."

"Did you ever tell her how you felt?"

"Y-yeah...she kept re-rejecting me though"

Sasuke frowned and his eyes completely vanished from the sockets. "Why would anyone reject you."

Naruto jumped back in shock "GAH! your-your eyes!"

"Sorry...that kind of thing just, happens when you're dead. I didn't meant o scare you."

"It just, startled me. Thats all "

"What about your job? You still have to exorcise me, right?"

Naruto had forgotten apparently. "O-oh...I-I kinda forgot..."

"You should think of something to tell your boss...or you can do as you're told." Sasuke looked over at him. "I'd understand if you did."

Naruto, despite everything telling him not too, embraced Sasuke in a big hug "I-I couldn't."

Sasuke rubbed Naruto's back. "You could, and I have a feeling that you'll be forced to. If not you, someone else will."

Naruto frowned. "How about...every time somone comes in you hide? Then I can say I exorcised you."

"You can't stay here forever. Eventually your job will take you elsewhere." He kissed the top of Naruto's head. "No, let's not talk about this now, problems can wait till tomorrow."

Naruto captured Sasuke's lips gently.

Sasuke's eye sockets widened slightly before they closed. "Nng-" He ran his fingers through Naruto's hair and flicked some of the candles off.

Naruto pulled Sasuke on top of him, and the bed.

Sasuke put his hands on either side of Naruto's head and lapped at the blonde's bottom lip.

Naruto opened his mouth slowly for entrance

Sasuke devoured Naruto's mouth with his and pressed his body against him. He pulled back. "Please tell me you aren't just doing this because you feel bad for me." He looked at him through half lidded eye sockets.

Naruto shook his head "No. I love you." He drew Sasuke back with lust in mind when kissing Sasuke passionately.

Sasuke moaned and ran his hands up Naruto's sides.

Naruto grew tense and a tent formed in his pants. Sasuke rubbed against him and pulled out of the kiss, gasping at the friction.

Naruto rolled so he was at the bottom.

Sasuke ran a bony hand down Naruto chest. He stopped at the hem of his shirt before he lifted it to caress to blonde's chest.

Naruto moaned as the cold hand touched hot skin.

Sasuke tugged at Naruto's shirt a lifted it up and over his head. He returned his attention to Naruto's chest and began kissing a trail fron his collar bone to his navel and back. Sasuke undid Naruto's belt as he sucked on one of his nipples. He ran a hand up the blondes thigh. "Wanna see a trick?"

Naruto shivered but nodded; Sasuke's touch felt great.

Sasuke's right hand detached itself from his arm and went up to Naruto's face to caress the blonde's cheek. His left hand also detached itself and snuck beneath Naruto's pant line.

Naruto went rigid but it felt so good. A moan escaped his lips.

"Just tell me if I'm being to creepy." Sasuke returned to kissing the blonde as his right hand continued to stroke his hair and his left hand continued to stroke something entirely different.

Naruto moaned as his cell phone rang. He swore.

Sasuke's right hand returned to his wrist and he got off of the blonde. He left hand however stayed where it was and continued what it was doing.

Naruto answered the phone "What do you want old hag?"

"Just checking up. Sakura wanted me to see if you've finished your job yet…Have you?" Sasuke lay down on the bed and watched Naruto. His left hand still hadn't come back to him.

Naruto shivered "U-um. I-I'm working on it Tsunade-baa."

"Naruto what's wrong? You're stuttering."

Sasuke absent-mindedly began to pick away at some exposed muscle near his ribcage.

"It's just a bit ch-chilly here. I'm curling up under blankets but something is making me chilly."

Sasuke quirked and eyebrow and smirk the hand picked up its pace. "Are you sure? Jiraiya won't be leaving for another week, I could have him come over if you want."

"I-I'm fine! Really. Talk to you tomorrow baa-sama!" He hung up

Tsunade stared at the phone before slamming it onto the receiver. "Brat."

Sasuke looked over. "So, who was that?"

"M-my grandma."

Nyeh. For those who are wondering, the worse of a mood Sasuke's in the more corpse-ish he looks. Anywho, this chapter hasn't gone though my beta reader yet so tell me if there are any mistakes. That and I'm not updating this story every other day. Provided my beta is up to the challenge.
