This chapter came to me in a dream…
And the story is full of fluffiness.. … Just now noticed that… Yay for fluffiness :3
Hey, I'm only 13 give me some slack. I can write smut, but that would be wrong, yeah? XD I'm only kidding, though.
Ah, omg. I forgot to mention that they live under ONE roof: Sakura, Sasuke, Naruto, and Kakashi…Meaningless information and yet it has tons of means to it.
.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.-.:.
The flaccid Uchiha cracked his eyes open and try to regain his vision. He laid on his side in his gloomy disposition. The lights were turned off, and…something was around his stomach, pressing against his chest. He soon remembered why he was knocked out; it was because of that damn needle injection! Sasuke began to squirm and strived to sit up, but the force that was around him thought otherwise.
He threw his head behind him to be met by some spiky, blonde hair. N-naruto?! Sasuke had instantly gained a blush and tried to pry the arm from his chest off out him. "Sasuke…stop…" The blond murmured. The Uchiha immediately stopped and looked the other way. "Naruto, why is your arm linked to me?!" Sasuke demanded an explanation.
The Uzumaki looked up at the sable-haired teen and blinked for a moment, trying to forward the message to his brain. "This is the only way that I know no one is going to kidnap you when everyone is asleep or, god forbid, hurt." The blond snuggled into Sasuke's back, only making the Uchiha more tense since he was still only in his boxers. The smooth, silky hair rubbed against the boy's bare skin, making him gulp the ascending saliva in his throat. "You know, you're still sore from that genjutsu guy."
Naruto was right. Sasuke did feel a little weak, but nonetheless still wanted the Uzumaki to unlatch himself. Naruto had suddenly pulled Sasuke closer to his chest, and the Uchiha did-not-like-this-one-bit. He tried to control his pounding heart, but if Naruto had pulled him any closer…the blond would notice something.
"Sasuke…" The Uzumaki murmured again. Sasuke dropped his head to his chest and swallowed his pride. "What is it?"
"Who do you like…?" A small voice emitted that still murmured. The Uchiha knew this question would soon pop up, but not at an inconvenient time such as this. "W-why do you want to know?" Sasuke said, trying to steer the conversation another way. The blond hesitated for a moment and drew closer to the sable-haired boy.
"Just…because."
Sasuke was found hesitating too; his heart was still pounding through his chest. "Why should I tell you?" He said, still putting up a fight. "Sasuke…please…just tell me." Naruto said with a worried voice. Sasuke couldn't just come out and say, 'It's you, dumb ass!'. Instead he tried to fall back to sleep, without giving the blond an answer.
An unexpected wet sensation was felt on Sasuke's back. "P-please, Sasuke…tell me…"
Sasuke felt guiltiness build up in his heart. He can't possible--… "Sasuke! Tell me!" A small gasp came from Sasuke's mouth. What could the Uchiha say? He pondered in his mind as the feeling of wetness had increased. "I just…don't want you to…get hurt, Sasuke…"
His ebony eyes had widen. Wait…what did he just say? Sasuke couldn't say a word. There was no words coming to his mind, and he had resorted to the second-to-last plan. The Uchiha pried the arms of the blond and had succeeded this time. The warmness left the blonde's body and this had only made the tears much worse.
Sasuke sat up and stared at the Uzumaki for a moment, then soon laid back down on his back and forced the blond to flip in the opposite direction. The Uchiha wrapped his hands around Naruto and inched closer to his back. "Please don't cry, Naruto…" He took his hand and caressed Naruto's moist face.
He tightly shut his eyes and tried to keep himself from falling into sympathy by crying with the blond. "I'm sure if I do tell him…he won't hurt me." Sasuke said, assuring the worried boy.
"Sasuke…if…" Naruto began, but unexpectedly stopped. "If what?"
"N-nothing. Just go back to sleep."
Naruto wiped his eyes and snuggled into the pillow, but Sasuke had acquired an insomnia problem by wondering what the blond was about to say. A long silence went on which seemed like forever in Sasuke's mind. The Uchiha stared openly into space, his mind reeling to a hindrance that was cause by the Uzumaki. Sasuke flipped on his back and stared at the ceiling.
Who was Sasuke fooling? What exactly would he tell to Naruto? He immediately knew if he had popped the idea up, and told the blond; Naruto would retaliate and say, 'I'm straight!'. The sable-haired teen shut his tired eyes, and waited for the slumber to ease in.
"Sasuke…no…"
The Uchiha's eyes shot up with shock. He looked downward to be met with a figure, snuggling into his chest. He sighed with a blush developing. God hated Sasuke Uchiha, yea? Naruto's blond hair rubbed against the pale skin, creating sensations to the tired boy. "Don't go…to…"
The sable-haired teen cocked an eyebrow, "W-what?"
"Don't leave…"
Leave? What the hell was he talking about? Sasuke's eyes went half-mast as he wrapped his arms around the blond, once more. "I'm not going to leave, Naruto." If there was one thing that God could've gave Sasuke, was this moment to last for the end of the night.
Naruto let out a heavy breath and slightly opened his eyes. Blue eyes met with black ones as he turned his head. "S-sasuke!"
The eyebrow went back to it's form of being cocked. "What is it, Naruto?"
The Uzumaki had a tinted blush forming on his face. "I just thought…I was in my bed…" (I usually think that when I wake up at someone's house o.o)
"I-I need to go back to my room…" The blond murmured as he stood and headed for the door. The warmth left Sasuke's body and it came as a shock to the sable-haired teen. "B-but, Naruto!"
The blond ignored the Uchiha, and he left by slamming the door that pierced through the silence that Sasuke came to hate. The Uchiha threw his back onto the bed's wooden frame and sighed. So close, and yet so far. Sasuke lain back down onto his pillow, uncomfortable with the lack of warmth that the Uzumaki produced. He blinked for a few moments and finally closed his eyes.

"Sasuke-kun…Sasuke-kun…"
A voice sounded through the ears of the Uchiha, alerting him to wake up and answer; just like an alarm clock. He opened his eyes to be met by a pink-haired girl that was smiling at him. "Sasuke-kun, you're finally awake."
Sasuke sat up and rubbed his eyes, clearing up his vision. He wasn't necessarily in the mood to see her. A bed tray was suddenly placed in front of the boy, and he looked clueless at the item. A bowl of ramen steamed with boiled eggs to the side; he could actually smell the salt coming off the steam. Sasuke could actually taste the bits of watercress spread across the tasteful water. He didn't find it odd that watercress was in his ramen, but only shrugged because he liked the vegetable, and for the first time in his life…Sasuke like it.
He turned to her and bowed his head. "Arigato."
She snapped a pair of chopstick and grinned, "Ikitakimasu!"
Sakura handed the chopsticks over to the boy, continuing to grin. His eyes went a little big and apparently had no choice, but to repeat her. "…Ikitakimasu…" He hovered over the delectable meal and was instantly reminded of Naruto. "Eh, Sasuke-kun. What's wrong?"
"Uh-…n-nothing." Sasuke muttered as he began to pick up a slimy pile of noodles. A suddenly realization crossed the Haruno girl's mind. "You know, for some odd reason…Naruto's been acting weird, today."
This didn't really strike the Uchiha, he continued to contently eat his breakfast in bed. She shifted a leg over her other leg and continued to smile. "Last night, when I had left you with him; I tried to tell him to go to his room, but he refused and said he wanted to stay with you."
A small slurp came from the boy's mouth, with a surprised look and a cocked eyebrow. "And now…I find you by yourself…" Sakura rested for a brief moment and grinned. "What happened last night, Sasuke-kun?"
He wanted to scream, 'None of you're damn business!' but instead only shrugged and grunted. She sighed and stared over at the window across the room and was instantly reminded, of yet, another thing. "Would you like another shot of morphine, Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked, walking towards the door to retrieve it. "N-no…I'll can deal without any painkillers." Sasuke answered quickly; not really wanting to replay the episode. She shrugged and left the room.
The bowl was finally finished, and Sasuke let out a breath of refreshness. Sasuke wiped his mouth with his ruffled pajamas and yawned. He blinked for a few moments, and tried to figure out why Naruto had left last night; it didn't make any sense for the Uchiha! The sable-haired boy pushed the tray forward, and flatly laid in his bed. He felt somewhat vulnerable and lonely, but maybe that was just his mind forcingly pushing emotions and causing negative outputs. A sigh was released from his lips and he sat up.
Sasuke felt normal, as usual, and left his legs hang on the side of the bed. Kakashi passed by the open door and peered inside. "Ah, Sasuke. You're finally well again."
The Uchiha's eyes were narrowed and he didn't quite care about the perverted man or his nature. The Hatake shown a smile through his mask and walked over to Sasuke. "What's wrong, Sasuke? I thought Naruto would be a great bed partner." The silver-haired man laughed with his words.
"Bah, seems like I could say the same for you." The ebony eyes, scrolling over the passing Iruka. "Touché." He emitted, losing his smile.
"We have another mission today. D-ranked." Kakashi said, beginning to leave his room. "Yeah, yeah. I'll be ready in a few minutes." Sasuke retorted, waving his hand. "Dress warm; it's raining today."
