Chapter Four: A Kiss and a Date?
Last time on Left to Loose:
The car was parked in a small turn out on the mountain that overlooked the town. Sasuke straightened up, taking in the view. The sun was just setting painting the skin in gold, orange, and red. Naruto smiled, clearly satisfied at Sasuke's reaction.
"I like to come up here when I need to be alone or need some cheering up." Naruto said softly next to him. They both said nothing, a comfortable silence falling between them.
"Thank you."
Naruto's breath hitched in his throat at Sasuke's soft words, and turned to look at the raven, and was rendered breathless even further.
Sasuke's form was melded into the seat, his usual furrowed brows, smoothed out, his normal frown had smoothed out as well, making his lips part slightly and an absolute peaceful expression on his face. He looked gorgeous, and couldn't stop himself from staring.
"Hodgkin's Lymphoma*. I was diagnosed when I was fifteen." Sasuke shifted slightly, while Naruto leaned closer, hanging onto every word. "I thought my world was ending. I mean cancer? Really? I didn't know what to do. Then I went into remission, something I never thought possible, and soon found out that it wasn't, and I was brought back out. Itachi helped me, Itachi helped me a lot. I wouldn't be here without him. He really is a great brother….but." Sasuke's head turned, thudding against the window. "I just don't want to be a burden to him anymore…if just…if just the cancer would do its job already and kill me-"
"Don't say that!" Naruto snapped, taking hold of Sasuke's arm and pulling him around to face him. "Don't you dare say something like that!"
"Yeah?" Sasuke snarled, quickly masking his surprised with a heavy glare. "And why not? Why the hell do you care any ways? You don't know me, your just some dumb errand boy my brother hired to babysit-"
Sasuke was silenced when hard warm lips pressed roughly into his. He naturally tensed under the sudden kiss, and it took him several seconds to process what was happening before he pushed Naruto off him.
"Wha-What the fuck do you think you're doing?" He snarled, backing as far into the window and door as he could, his entire body now facing a scowling Naruto.
"Don't say things like that. Itachi loves you. Yeah I barely know you, but I'm not blind, even I can see how much he cares about you." Sasuke settled slightly, yet continued to glare at the blond. "And is it so wrong that I want to get to know you, that I want to care about you?" Blue orbs swiveled to his own, catching his breath at the intensity in them, making his pale face flush slightly.
"What the hell are you talking about dobe?"
"I want to care about you Sasuke. I want to know you, I want to be there for you, help you-"
"Wait,wait wati, stop. Please. You don't know what you're taking about." Sasuke's eyes teared away from his, suddenly becoming interested in the dashboard.
"Sasuke?" His hand reached out to touch him, but Sasuke pulled away, missing his fingers by mere centimeters.
"You don't understand. Please just take me home." Sasuke's voice was soft and pleading, sounding unbelievably vulnerably.
"Sas-"
"Please, Naruto."
Naruto sighed, letting his hand drop away from the raven, and settled himself back fully into his own seat. Sasuke settled back into his own seat, while Naruto turned the car back on.
The ride back to Sasuke's apartment was long, feeling like hours. Neither said a word to each other, and Sasuke continued to stare blankly out of the window, trying to ignore the glances Naruto threw him every now and then.
Naruto shifted the car into park, and turned off the ignition, making the silence that already filled the care even more heavy. When he went to open his door, Sasuke stopped him.
"No, its fine. I can make it by myself."
"Sasuke, no. Your still really pale. I'm walking you."
"Naruto please. Just let me have this, okay."
Naruto held his tongue. He understood. He knew Sasuke was a very proud man, and wanted to hold onto as much as he could as possible, regardless.
"Fine but Sasuke-" He reached for the ravens arm as he exited the car. "Go out with me?" He blurted stupidly.
"What!" Sasuke flushed, trying to yank his arm free from the blond. "We already talked about-"
"Just one date. Please." Naruto pleaded. "That's all I'm asking." Sasuke huffed at the pouty blue eyes that looked up at him.
"I need to do some grocery shopping tomorrow. Three PM. Don't be late." Sasuke said quickly, finally yanking his arm free from the blond, and fled into the apartment building, leaving Naruto with a wide grin on his face.
Sasuke nodded to the doorman and quickly made his way into the elevator and then into his apartment. The room was dark still, meaning Itachi still wasn't home. But now that he was he felt utterly exhausted. He made his way into the kitchen, flipping the light on as he entered, and poured himself a large glass of water. But about half way through the cup, he felt bile rise in his throat, and quickly rushed into the bathroom, throwing up.
Twenty minutes later, he exited the bathroom, his legs barely holding his weight, and stumbled into his bedroom. His body felt so sore and itchy he could barely take it. He collapsed onto his bed and curled into himself, hoping to ease the aches somewhat, and fell into a restless sleep, thinking all the while, that he hoped he wasn't making the wrong choice by going on a date with Naruto. But he couldnt help but admit, that damn were Naruto's lips soft.
Eleven miles away Naruto crawled into his own bed, feeling nothing but restlessness. Finally he got Sasuke to agree to a date. This was his chance to prove to the raven that he deserved love. He stared blankly at his ceiling his smile never leaving his face, even when he finally drifted to sleep.
Sooo? Tell me what you thought please!
Anywho it's a corny ending I know, lol, but I hope you liked it.
Again, I went through this chapter quick, so if I didn't catch all the mistakes, SORRY!
See you next chapter!
*1: Hodgkin's Lymphoma: previously known as Hodgkin's disease, is a type of lymphoma, which is a cancer originating from white blood cells called lymphocytes. Hodgkin's lymphoma is characterized by the orderly spread of disease from one lymph node group to another and by the development of systemic symptoms with advanced disease. (Taken from wikipedia. I will also be describing his cancer here and there throughout future chapters as well).
