Chapter Three: Phantansievoll

Naruto's was panicing. He slowly stepped forward, placing his palms upon the stone. He pushed, slowly, watching it begin to slide. His breathing was uneven and thudded in his throat as the slab fell to the other side with a heavy thud.

Sasuke was there, exactly like he had been all those years ago.

Clad simply in dark pants and a long sleeve shirt, Naruto had always made sure Sasuke's clothes were changed before deteriation became to great.

Naruto placed his hand to Sasuke's cheek. As cold as Naruto was, he could still feel the chill of Sasuke's flesh. He leaned over the other boy. God how he had missed him… He placed his ear to Sasuke's chest. It was there. A slow, steady heartbeat. Quickly putting a hand on Sasuke's back and another under his legs, Naruto set back off to the house.

Sakura sat down at the kitchen table, the smell of honey and green tea flowing through the air. She wondered if Naruto would come back soon. She wished Naruto wouldn't get his hopes up, only to have them crushed again if the other boy hadn't awoken. She was making tea, since it was cold outside and Naruto would need something to help warm him up when he got back inside, if even a little.

Everything had been peaceful for them, Naruto and Sakura, for around the last fifteen years. The fighting had died down, and the only big occurrences were when their old friends stopped by for a visit unexpectedly. The two were just there, doing the simple job of watching Sasuke's body and waiting for him to wake up.

The front door opened slammed open unexpectantly and Sakura heard Naruto stomp up the steps. She rolled her eyes and walked into the other room to close the door, then began to walk up the stairs after the blonde.

Naruto waited. It was hard, but he waited. Sasuke would be coming soon, he knew. He hadn't seen him all week; he had to come tonight.

Naruto's open balcony doors let in a light breeze, the wind ghosting his flesh. It had been four weeks since he had gotten together with Sasuke. They hadn't known each other very long, but somehow, Naruto felt he could trust him. He knew quite a few vampires. He'd killed quite a few vampires. And none of them, not a single one, had ever been able to make him feel comfortable, save Sasuke.

Naruto was so relaxed with the dark haired boy that he even went as far as to allow him to drink from him. Sasuke made it so it didn't hurt, with the kisses and the touches.

It had cost him, though. There were times when Sasuke couldn't help himself and took too much from the blonde. Naruto would wake up, weak, tired, and drained. But, he still took the chance. He let Sasuke come back once a week, if not more, for blood. In general, he was visiting Naruto six days out of the week. In fact, it thrilled him. Naruto couldn't help it. There was just something, one might say dangerously exciting, about having a vampire in your home; as your lover. It didn't take Naruto long at all to realize he was falling for him.

"Naruto…" A voice whispered from behind him, shaking him from his thoughts. He turned to see black eyes gleaming at him. Naruto smiled warmly at him.


"Sasuke…"

Sasuke came forward and wrapped his arms around the human, then began to nuzzle and place small kisses up and down his neck. Naruto sighed and allowed himself to be touched by Sasuke. He knew that the other boy wouldn't hurt him. Well, that's what he told himself.

Naruto shuddered as he felt Sasuke nip at his neck gently, biting his skin softly. He went limp in Sasuke's arms. The dark haired boy took them both to the bed, not taking his mouth of Naruto. As they lay there, Naruto content to just be held, he felt Sasuke bite slightly harder than he had been, then pull back. Sasuke lay on top of the other boy, looking into his eyes questioningly.

"May I?" he asked softly. Naruto never said no, but he asked every time anyway.

"Of course." Naruto whispered back.

Sasuke leaned forward eagerly, fangs already out and gleaming. He placed his mouth to Naruto's neck, and slowly sunk his teeth into the eager flesh. Naruto felt his blood leaving him, the slow suck of his life, but he didn't feel the fangs in his skin. He just felt happy to have Sasuke here with him.

When Sasuke was finished, he withdrew, licking at his lips, not wasting a single drop. Naruto just stared at him. He was beautiful. And he was his. Sasuke had promised. He would be only his lover, and would take no one else. Naruto didn't know where the other went for the rest of the time he wasn't with him, but Sasuke's promise kept him satisfied. Sasuke smirked at the other boy.

"What are you thinking about that makes you look so cute?"


"You." Naruto leaned up and kissed him, although this kiss wasn't as soft or as gentle as the other ones. Sasuke was his. And he was Sasuke's. He flinched when he felt Sasuke's cold hands slide up his shirt, but then became accustomed to the feel again, and readily let Sasuke's hands roam his body.

"I love you…" Naruto whispered. Sasuke must have not heard though, for there was no answer except for his touches.

Naruto awoke the next morning, the sheets soft again his skin. The bed wasn't warm, so he couldn't tell how long ago sasuke had left. Well, he wouldn't have been able to tell if Sasuke had left even moments ago. Looking out the glass doors to his balcony, Naruto noticed that the sun was just appearing along the black horizon line. Sasuke was gone, but Naruto's memory burned with the thought of him. He placed two fingers to his neck to touch the already healed bite marks, smiling softly.

Sasuke would be back, and he would be waiting for him.

"I love you so much." he whispered to the empty room.

Realization hit Sakura when she noticed Naruto's bedroom door open. Sasuke must have woken! She hurried into the room to check on the blonde.

He sat there, a small chair placed next to the Victorian style bed, Sasuke was lying on. His eyes were closed, but she knew they wouldn't be for long. Sasuke's body was waking up. She could tell that much from looking at him. Sakura smiled. It was about time. Naruto; how he had longed for this boy to awaken.

The room fit the boy laying on the bed. The bed was covered in a large, silk bed spread, that shimmered with the light that the fireplace off to the side cast around the room. The walls were white, but off white, leaning more towards gray, and the floor was wooden, smooth, and cold. Naruto stared at Sasuke. He had to be here when he opened his eyes.

Sakura suddenly realized something. Naruto was smiling. A real smile. A soft, caring smile that showed in his eyes. She had never seen the boy smile like that, not in all the years she had known him.

"Sakura…" he said, grinning, a shiver of excitement running down his spine. "He's waking up."

"I know," she smiled back. She was glad for him. He deserved happiness after everything he'd been through. Please God, she though, let him find happiness.
