There's one problem with writing fanfiction at school, well actually two. One is that right now, any type of writing make my entire arm hurt, but I'm a stubborn idiot and write anyway. The other is that, everything you write, then has to be typed.

Anyways, just so my one reviewer knows, and anyone else who is confused, this story is completely fictional. It just popped into my head, and the parts fit with some of the Naruto characters, so I decided to write it as a fanfiction.

Disclaimer: Despite my wishing, I still don't own Naruto.

Tears of Newfound Joy (You'll get it eventually --.)

His house is huge, and I don't mean like three stories huge, I mean mansion huge!

There were so many rooms. I was certain that I was going to get lost.

He finally stopped infront of a door, and I nearly ran into him because I wasn't looking where I was going.

"This is your room. (He pointed at door we stopped in front of) That is my brother's. (Pointed to door across from and to the left of mine) And that is mine. (Door across from mine)."

"Thanks?"

What could I say in response to that? I had been suddenly uprooted and thrown into a completely new situation. Suddenly Sasuke walked past me and headed back down the hall.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Downstairs."

I was somewhat startled by his suddenly cold tone, he had been so kind just moments before. Now, we were back at ice.

Oh well, I guess I should check out my room.

It was a massive bedroom. The bed was soft and squishy, and my clothes only managed to fill a third of the humongous closet.

There was also a bathroom connected to my room. The tiled floor gleamed, and fresh towels hung on the wall. It was simply to tempting. I decided to take a bath then and there.

I must have been in that bath longer than I realized because when I looked out the window after I put on a pair of shorts and a tanktop, it was dark. I then glanced down at my arms.

They weren't looking very good. They had been cut up a little by one of my last beatings. I could also feel the large scrape on my back tingling.

I sighed slightly. Then I walked into the bathroom with a new goal. Find some gaze and ointment.

A while later there was a soft knock on the bathroom door. I looked up from my search and called out a you can come in.

Sasuke entered.

He stopped the second he saw me, his eyes observing every single cut, scrape, and bruise. A look of revulsion formed on his face.

I froze. He had seen me. Without my barriers, without my mask, he had seen everything I had been hiding for years. What should I do now?

He looked away a little too fast and opened a cabinet I had yet to look in. He pulled out a roll of gauze and a bottle of ointment. Then he turned to me and asked softly, "Do you need any help?"

I studied him for a moment, then nodded a yes. I could do it myself, but it would be difficult. If he did it, I wouldn't open any of the cuts while trying to wrap them.

He motioned for me to come out of the bathroom and sit on the bed. He sat down next to me and began to wrap my numerous afflictions.

It was rather amazing to me that he could be so gentle. Never once did he cause me even the slightest pain as he wrapped all my cuts.

If he was disgusted, he hid it well. Never once did he even let out a tiny exclamation. He just wrapped each cut as if he had done this many times before.

His kindness overwhelmed me. It made me start to cry.

My tears first fell silently, but soon, they became noisy sobs as I let my emotions take over.

My sudden outburst startled him. I felt his fingers tense on the gauze he had been tying off on the last cut that needed to be covered.

"What's wrong? Is something tied too tightly?"

I shook my head, but I continued to cry. I finally knew what it felt like to have someone actually take care of you. It was an amazing feeling.

I took the gauze from his hand and finished off the tie. Then I turned and gave him a huge hug.

He didn't expect my sudden attack, so he fell backwards onto the bed. I fell with him.

My head ended up on his chest, where I continued to cry.

I vaguely remember a soft hand rubbing my back before I fell asleep into peaceful oblivion.

Oh dear, I haven't updated anything in ages. Okay, it was one week, but still, what was I thinking making everyone wait so long? Oh well, I finally kicked myself in the but and typed this up. Hopefully, if youtube stays down and boredom remains, the next chapter will be up soon too.

P. Rose: How about this, if you triple the number of reviews, you'll get another chapter. It won't be hard; you only need to get to 3.
