DAY THREE.

TWO AM.

Sasuke silently pushed open the trap door that was conveniently positioned behind an old, falling apart dresser in the corner of the room. He stepped into the blond's room, grinning as he held a tube of fake blood in one hand. The fake teeth were uncomfortable in his mouth, but he could handle them. This wouldn't take long, anyway.

Sasuke was wearing a short red wig, as well as red contact lenses. He had on a pair of black pants, a long-sleeved black button-up shirt, and polished black shoes. After all, if he was to pretend to be a vampire, he had to look the part.

Ensuring the teeth were in properly, he walked silently around the dresser to see the blond sprawled out on his bed, asleep. How he could be so scared while awake and still managed to sleep, Sasuke didn't know, but either way, it benefited him. He inched across the room to Naruto, looking down as he slept.

He's kind of cute, Sasuke mused. In a babyish kind of way. And he looks a little angelic, what with the blond hair and bright blue eyes. He continued to stare down at Naruto until he realized he was wasting time and shook his head. He had to stop thinking those weird things about the other boy.

Sasuke had no problem with admitting he thought boys were cute. He'd been bi-sexual for a while, so it wasn't the first time he'd thought another boy was attractive, but to admit these things about Naruto—that was a little weird. The boy had been his most hated rival for years. If he suddenly developed feelings for him...

Is it suddenly, though? Sasuke mused. After all, isn't there an old saying about always teasing the one you love? Could I have liked Naruto all these years and never realized it? Sasuke shook his head again. Now was not the time. Especially since he'd been leaning forward more and more as he thought. Then again, kissing Naruto while dressed as a vampire could be pretty funny.

Sasuke carefully dropped a bit of blood onto Naruto's neck, the blond shifting but doing nothing more. The raven smirked as he got on his knees, bending down to bite Naruto's neck softly. The blond didn't wake up. Sasuke frowned. Fine, I'll just have to make him wake up. With that in mind, Sasuke bit down a little harder and started to suck, feeling Naruto's steady pulse against his tongue. This would make it more believable, anyway.

As he sucked and bit on the blond's neck, all he elicited were groans, and Naruto shifting in his sleep.

"Sakura, stop." he mumbled. "You'll leave a mark." He started to roll over, but Sasuke held him fast. The blond's eyes finally snapped open and he yelped. "Who are you?.! Get off me!" He shoved at Sasuke, but the raven just smirked before pulling away, fake blood smeared on his face from the hickey he'd just made. Naruto's eyes widened to the point where Sasuke thought they'd fall out of his head.

"You taste good, human." he said in the best imitation of a Romanian accent he could do. "I thought for sure the others were lying about you."

"O-others?" Naruto said in a small voice, not wanting to anger this vampire like he had angered all the ghosts—especially since he was still hovering over him.

"The ghosts and zombies in the house." Sasuke caressed Naruto's cheek, the blond whimpering. "You taste magnificent." Sasuke licked the fake blood of his lips for emphasis. "And you are beautiful."

Beautiful?.! Sasuke's mind screamed. Shit! Where did that come from?.! Fuck, fuck, fuck!

Naruto was still staring at him with a deer-in-the-headlights look. So, figuring he's already fucked himself over, Sasuke gave an almost invisible shrug before bending down over Naruto's face. The blond pressed himself into the mattress, his eyes wide and terrified. Sasuke's lips finally pressed against Naruto's gently, though it felt a little uncomfortable because of the teeth—and the fact that Naruto was so stiff.

The blond didn't move, his eyes wide as the vampire pressed its lips against his. Soon, he felt a tongue run along his lower lip and he whimpered. Obviously sensing his fear, the vampire pulled away, standing and looking down at him.

"I expect you not to leave." It narrowed its eyes at him. "Leave, and I will find you, and kill you."

It floated away and Naruto sat frozen for a few seconds before jumping to his feet and rushing across the room. He stared at the spot where the vampire went, but it was gone. It had disappeared into thin air.

Naruto fell back against the wall, sinking to the ground, and cried.

-------------------------------------------------------------

FOUR AM.

Naruto was still against the wall, no longer crying, but just lost deep in thought when he heard a familiar sound. Music. The second night in a row he'd spent in that house, and again, the music. Glancing at his watch, he noted it was the same time, too. Nothing in this house seemed to sleep at night, but then again, vampires weren't really fond of sunlight.

Debating it for a few minutes, waiting to see if the music would stop, Naruto finally sighed and got to his feet. Honestly, he really didn't know what else could scare him. He was still too afraid to look at his neck, but he could feel the wet stickiness that was undoubtedly his blood from when the vampire had bit him. He just hoped he wouldn't turn to ash come morning.

Opening his door slowly, Naruto peeked out, but he saw nothing. It was dark, and this time, he didn't have even a camera to light his way. Whatever, if I'm going to die, might as well be a surprise. He shrugged and made his way cautiously out of the room, running his hands along the walls to make sure he didn't walk into anything. He reached the living room, and then headed for the room beside him, peeking in around the corner. It was the same masked figure, playing the same piece. He was really good, but it didn't mean Naruto wasn't scared of him. He was a ghost, after all.

Suddenly, the ghost slammed his hands against the piano, making Naruto jump. "I thought I told you to get out."

Oh shit, he knows I'm here! Naruto paled as the masked figure turned, staring at him. His words caught in his throat. The ghost stood, walking slowly towards him. Naruto backed up until he hit the opposite wall in the corridor, the ghost still headed right for him.

Finally finding his voice, he screamed at the ghost, not meaning to, but so panicked he hadn't been able to help himself. "The vampire told me to stay!"

"I do not care what Rafael said!" He was snarling right in Naruto's face. "He does not own this house! I will not tell you again! Out!" He punched the wall beside Naruto and the blond screamed.

He turned and bolted back towards his room, wanting nothing more than to leave. At least if the vampire came after him, he'd have to find out where Naruto lived first. That, and it would give the blond time to buy all the crosses he could find, get a bucket of holy water, sharpen a couple of stakes, and cover his room with garlic. Stuck here—there was nothing he could do but run, and hope to God he didn't die.

One says 'leave or I'll kill you.' The other says 'stay or I'll kill you.' I can't win! Naruto thought as he slammed into his room and began throwing stuff in front of his door. He knew it wouldn't do him any good, what with the vampire having gotten in and all, but it made him feel better.

Backing up, Naruto cried out as he tripped over the edge of his bed and hit his head against the wall, knocking himself out.

-------------------------------------------------------------

ELEVEN TWELVE AM.

Naruto awoke with a groan, his neck hurting from the position he'd been in all night, and his head throbbing.

"Ow." He reached up and gingerly touched his aching head before squinting at the sunlight shining into his room. "Well, at least I know I'm still human." he muttered as he stood.

As he opened his eyes completely, they widened as he surveyed his room. All of this things were in disorder, tossed about the room. His bag was inside out with all his clothes across his floor. He ran to his fridge and was relieved to find he still had all of his food. That would've been bad, considering he couldn't leave the freaking house!

Why not just kill me? Naruto asked, confused. He turned to his room with a frown. I was unconscious; vulnerable. Why didn't they— Naruto's eyes widened as his hands flew to his hair, tugging it.

"Oh my God! I'm dead! They killed me, and now I'm a ghost!" Naruto screamed as he ran towards the door. He slammed into it before falling on his ass with a whine, holding his head, which now hurt even more. "Okay, not dead." he grumbled as he stood.

His hand fell on something as he began to push himself up and he looked down at it. It was—Neji's camera! Naruto snatched it up off the floor and hugged it to his chest. Neji would kill him if he lost it. Then again, Naruto may have accidentally broken it when he dropped it.

Turning it over in his hands, Naruto turned it on, and sighed as it worked. He then started scanning through the pictures and his eyes widened. There were pictures of all the rooms! Every single room in the house at night had been taken!

"No way." Naruto whispered as he scanned through them. "No way! But who—" Naruto cut himself off as he reached the last picture. It was of a piece of paper that read 'courtesy of Rafael.' "Oh, Christ." Naruto whined. "I have an admirer, and he's dead! Why me?" He buried his face in his hands. "This is a nightmare. I'm going to kill everyone who told me to do this! If I don't die in this house, they're all dead! Especially for locking me in!" Naruto hollered the last bit angrily, waving his hands about before calming down.

With a sigh, he trudged across the room and fell onto his bed, pulling the covers up over his head and whimpering. Now that the night pictures had been taken, he needed to get the day ones done—but first, he needed to get over the fact that a vampire was in love with him.

-------------------------------------------------------------

TWELVE THIRTY-TWO PM.

Sasuke watched Naruto as he moved through the house, taking pictures of the rooms. He was right in guessing what Kiba had wanted him to do with the camera, but it seemed he needed more pictures. Sasuke didn't care, at least he'd saved the blond from having a heart attack by doing it at night. Although, Sasuke thought with a grin, I could've had so much fun scaring the crap out of him at night.

The raven would play the heartbeat or the sound of chains rattling on occasion over the speakers that ran through the house, and watch Naruto jump and squeak, but he left it at that, for now. Truth be told, he was running out of ideas. Or moreso—he didn't want to scare the shit out of his rival anymore.

He would admit it. He loved the blond moron.

"He's still alive. This boy is impressive." Itachi's voice spoke into Sasuke's headphones, a smirk evident in his voice.

"You knew." Sasuke accused, narrowing his eyes.

"Knew what?" Itachi asked innocently.

"That I liked him." Sasuke snarled.

"Ah, you finally noticed! Took you long enough. I knew since the first day you came home complaining about him."

"Tch." The raven looked to the side with a frown. "You could've told me."

"And why would I do that? You'd only deny it, anyway. This way, you know you actually love him." The two stayed silent for a while. "What are you going to do now?"

"I don't know." Sasuke admitted. "I want to keep this prank going—but I don't know how much longer I can sit up here, watching him."

"I noticed your little slip-up while you were the vampire." Itachi was clearly smirking, and that annoyed Sasuke.

"Yeah, well..." he trailed off, not sure what to say. Then, he got an idea. "Hey, Itachi, you can unlock the doors and let people in, right?"

"Yes." the elder Uchiha said uncertainly.

"I have an idea." Sasuke grinned. "But tomorrow. We'll do it tomorrow. Around eleven."

"Do what?" Itachi asked, confused.

Sasuke just smirked as he proceeded to lay his plan out.

-------------------------------------------------------------

SEVEN PM.

Naruto sat in the center of his bed before sniffing the front of his shirt. "I don't smell that bad." he insisted. He ran his hand through his hair before cringing. "It doesn't feel that bad." He bit his lip. "No!" he suddenly burst out. "No, I'm not taking a shower!" He crossed his arms over his chest and pouted. Who knew what would happen if he took his shower. Especially since it was nightfall, already. That meant Rafael, or whatever his name was, would be wandering around.

Naruto whimpered, desperately wanting to shower. He knew he shouldn't have put it off, but he'd been taking pictures and lost track of time, and then he'd eaten, and by the time he began steeling himself to go back out there to take a shower, he'd noticed it was dark, and lost his nerve.

"No. I can do this. I can!" Naruto insisted as he stood. He grabbed his towel, soap and shampoo before standing in front of the door. He took a deep breath before inching it open and looking down the corridor. He cursed for the fiftieth time since arriving that there was no light in that hallway before bolting across it to the bathroom. He slammed into it and closed the door, locking it. He waited. Nothing. So far so good.

Naruto turned to the shower and put his things down on top of the toilet lid. He walked to the tub and turned on the water, watching as the water flowing out came out clear. At least the water was clean. The blond pulled his shirt up over his head before yanking down his pants. He froze at his boxers, just staring at them, almost tempted to shower with them on.

Looking around one more time for the vampire, Naruto swallowed hard and yanked them off. He began to get in the tub when the mirror caught his eye and he went in front of it. He was stunned to see he still had a lot of his own blood on his face. He'd never really gotten around to washing it off, since he'd been so terrified. All his crying had washed it off, ironically enough.

He tilted his head to the side and winced as he saw the large bruise on his neck, which could only be because the vampire had pierced his artery and let blood leak into the surrounding tissue. As long as I don't turn into a vampire, I don't care what happens. He can't fuck me, and he can't turn me. I'll leave that as my two rules.

Naruto then jumped into the shower and ran his hands through his hair as water cascaded down his skin. He grabbed his soap and rubbed it between his hands to form suds before rubbing his face with them to get rid of the blood. He then washed his neck and went back under the spray, rubbing his face.

Grabbing the shampoo, he hurriedly washed his hair before running the soap over the rest of his body. Once he deemed himself clean enough, he turned the water off and threw back the curtains, reaching for his towel. He let out a strangled yelp and covered his crotch as the vampire stood in the bathroom, his arms crossed and leaning back against the door.

"What do you want?.!" Naruto shrieked before the light was flicked off. His eyes widened in terror. Vampires could see in the dark! Shit!

Sasuke, for his part, cursed the darkness as he slowly made his way forward, trying not to kill himself. In all honesty, the reason he'd flicked off the light was because he was worried Naruto would recognize him in such a bright room. He finally reached the tub and held out a hand until it touched smooth skin. He heard Naruto gasp, and just smirked. He wasn't going to do anything, he just wanted to scare him.

Running his hands along the smooth, wet chest, Sasuke smiled at the feel of the other boy's skin. He'd never noticed how soft it was before. They'd always been too busy beating each other up to feel the other's skin, so now that he was touching it, he wondered how the blond kept it so soft.

Naruto took a step back and Sasuke growled, trying to sound angry. With a whimper, the blond took a hesitant step forward again, the raven running his hands up his neck. Naruto whimpered again, obviously worried about getting bitten a second time, but Sasuke wasn't planning on giving him another hickey.

Moving his hands up until he found the blond's lips, Sasuke leaned forward, pressing his against the other boy's. He felt a moan clawing its way up his throat, but he forced it back down as he ran his tongue along the blond's lower lip before nibbling on it, coaxing it to open the blond's mouth. Once he'd managed a small gap, Sasuke plunged his tongue into the other boy's mouth.

This time, he couldn't stop the moan that escaped him. Naruto tasted sweet, like vanilla, with a small mixture of miso ramen, which was obviously what he'd eaten for dinner. Putting one hand against the back of the blond's neck, he pulled him closer, licking at the sides of Naruto's cheeks, running his tongue along the roof of his mouth and across his teeth. He stayed away from the other boy's tongue for now, wanting to be able to taste that himself, as Sasuke, and not pretending to be a vampire.

He pulled away, kissing Naruto's lips one last time as he caressed his cheek. "I knew there was something I liked about you." he whispered, barely remembering to put on a Romanian accent, he was so drugged. Naruto was like a drug to him.

He then let him go, backing away quickly and opening the door. He flicked on the light before leaving the room, slamming the door behind him. He smiled as he touched his lips before rushing back to the attic.

Naruto, for his part, sank to the bottom of the tub, touching his own lips. That—wasn't that bad, he mused, surprised.
