Author's Note: Lol I could have died typing this out. I had to scrap at least 3 versions.
This isn't the best, but it's moderate.

Sasuke's hands stood opposite of Naruto's face.
Sasuke chuckled. "It's rude to leave without saying goodbye."
Naruto and Sasuke were less than a block away from Azure, standing in a restaurant's alley way.
He had tried to push Sasuke's arms away, but he proved to be a lot stronger than he looked.
"Why me?" Naruto asked. He was thinking aloud this time, not really caring anymore.
Sasuke chuckled.
He nipped at Naruto's neck. "I don't know. You squirm. I like that."
Naruto struggled. "Listen, I have no idea who you think you are, but I'm not about to let you go and do whatever you want with me."
Sasuke smiled innocently. "What are you talking about?" He ran a hand through Naruto's blonde locks.
Naruto pushed him quickly, finally escaping the corner.
Sasuke tackled Naruto. They both fell with a thud, Sasuke straddling Naruto.
"Oh no you don't. You're not getting away this time."
Naruto's eyes widened. He punched and slapped. He even tried to bite.
Sasuke pinned his arms above his head.
"As much as I'd like to see you bite me, I'm running the show here."
Naruto growled. Sasuke grasped Naruto's belt buckle, driving him closer to his crotch.
"Seems you're happy to see me."
Naruto's spiteful expression died out. His blush came back, full force.
His erection was extremely close to Sasuke's, causing him to squirm violently.
Sasuke rolled his hips slightly.
Naruto felt a low moan escape his lips.
"So you like it."
Sasuke rolled his hips again. His erection brushed against Naruto's roughly.
Naruto screwed his eyes shut, reacting to the brief touch.
Sasuke whispered into his ear. "You should indulge."

"What the hell?!"
Sasuke looked up from Naruto's face to see a very, very baffled Neji.
TenTen threw Naruto's jacket over her head.
"I so did not see that!" She shouted.
Naruto saw this as an opportunity to push Sasuke off of him. He stood up quickly, brushing himself off.
"Naruto, you have broken the limits of weird. Before I just thought you were an idiot. And now I've come to the conclusion not only are you stupid, but you're incredibly bizarre." Neji stated flatly.
Sasuke crossed his arms. "How annoying. Don't you have somewhere to go?"
Neji scoffed. "Right; because I'm the one raping Naruto in an alley."
Naruto backed away from Sasuke. "Y-you stay away from me from now on!"
"It's not rape if you're willing." Sasuke said with a smirk.
Neji looked back at TenTen.
She was holding Naruto's jacket around her head tight.
Naruto's eye twitched. "Hey! Are you listening to me?! Stay away from me! I mean it!"
Sasuke heaved a sigh. "Can't do. I'll see you tomorrow. And the next day. Then the day after that. You are my photographer after all."


Neji dropped TenTen off at her apartment building.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow." Neji said to TenTen.
She kissed him softly. "Okay. Uh… Bye Naruto."

Neji turned to Naruto in the passenger's seat.
"I can't believe you were going to let that guy have his way with you."
Naruto just looked out the window, watching the cars go by.
Neji stopped at a streetlight.
"What's the matter? For once does Naruto Uzumaki not have anything to say? No comeback? No punch to the arm?"
Naruto sighed.
"You never really mentioned what your sexual preference was anyway. TenTen always teased you but you never said a word. I do know you have dated girls. But you always blow the question off. I think right now at this very moment, your parents are spinning in their graves."
Naruto grinned widely. "See, now that's none of your business. And next time, leave my parents out of this."
He swiftly stepped out of the car, slamming the door behind him.

Jerk.

Neji drove off, the tires screeching.
Naruto closed the door of his room, looking around in the dark.
He could make out Kiba's head, and an arm that had obviously fallen off the bed in between his tossing and turning.
Naruto tilted his head slightly, just gazing at Kiba's face.
When he slept, he was peaceful. They didn't argue, or fight over the remote.
"You shouldn't do that Naruto."
Naruto snapped back into reality.
He sat up in bed, rubbing his eyes. "Don't ever pull a 'Michael Meyers' on me again. It's really fucking creepy."
Naruto laughed. "Sorry. I thought you were sleeping."
"I was. Sort of. How was work?"
Naruto hung his jacket on a hook behind the door. "It was awful. I should have stayed home."
Kiba turned a lamp on. "How so? Didn't score any phone numbers?"
"No it's not that. I got stalked by Sasuke Uchiha."
Kiba hooted.
"It's not funny. He was about to rape me in an alley. Then Neji and TenTen showed up." Naruto said with remorse.
"Sounds like you regret being interrupted." Kiba replied questioningly.
"W-what? U-uh no, it's nothing like that." Naruto said quickly, waving his hands in front of his face.
Kiba crossed his arms behind his head. "I believe you Naruto. I really do. Don't worry about it. We both know you're into chicks only. No need to spaz out."
"R-right. Thanks, Kiba."
Naruto went into the bathroom. He turned the shower on and closed the door.
Kiba yawned. He had had a few serene moments to himself, sleeping soundly.
He felt his eyelids dropping, the sheets beneath his bare back growing softer by the second.
Naruto came out of the shower, a towel tied around his waist.
He dried his hair with another towel; stopping to stare at Kiba.
"Dude. What did I say about the whole Michael Meyers thing?" Kiba growled without opening his eyes.
Naruto shrugged. "Not my fault. You look like less of a prick when you sleep."
"Gee, thanks. Now hurry up. I have to get up extra early tomorrow."
Naruto turned the light off.
He slipped into some boxers and crawled into his bed.

At least I'm safe here. Warm bed, dorm at least two miles away from the city.
No Orochimaru. No Neji. And especially no Sasuke.


Sasuke stepped into his quiet room, closing the door behind him.
Everything was clean and neat. Nothing encumbered his space; his domain.
His room was decorated with black and white, followed by outburst of red here and there.
Sasuke dropped his keys on his desk. He emptied out his pockets, sitting down on his couch.

Seems there's a lot more to you Naruto.

Sasuke knew Naruto had liked the closeness they had created earlier. The friction in his jeans.
It was all extremely obvious.
Sasuke stretched. He wanted more.

Nothing in life is difficult. If you want something you take it. I'm going to take you Naruto. Whether you like it or not.

Sasuke's thoughts were broken up by a loud vibration.
He looked over at his cell phone.
Even at three in the morning, Sasuke wasn't at ease with himself. How could he be with people constantly on his back?
He picked it up.
"Temari, this better be good. I'm really tired and have no time fo—"
"Shut it. Do you honestly think I'd be calling this late to talk indignant shit?"
"Well then? What is it?" Sasuke said impatiently.
"It's your brother. They called me since they couldn't reach you."
Sasuke sighed deeply. "What's wrong now?"
"I don't know they said they needed to talk to family. He's at the hospital."
Sasuke's grip on the arm rest loosened. "I-I left him… with Sakura and Hinata. Are they alright?"
"They're perfectly fine. As for Itachi… I..."


Sasuke sat in the waiting room of Saint Anne's hospital.
His chin rested on his hands, propped up on his knees.
Even though Itachi insisted on being the bane of Sasuke's existence, he was the only family he had left. He felt an attached responsibility to him. But in these cases, Itachi was the one that was supposed to be the adult. Not Sasuke.
A doctor approached Sasuke. "Mr. Uchiha?"
Sasuke looked up. "Yeah?"
"Your brother is in critical condition. He seems to have over dosed on heroin."
Sasuke inhaled. "Will he be okay?"
"We're doing everything we can. My best guess is that he'll be fine, but will have to remain here for a few days."
Sasuke stood up. "Can you give me a call then? When this all blows over. I'll come get him."
"Of course."
Sasuke turned to walk away.
"Sasuke? Have you ever considered taking Itachi to rehabilitation?"
Sasuke stopped dead in his tracks. He peered over his shoulder to look at a very worried Tsunade.
"My, my Tsunade. How unprofessional of you. You and I both know I've tried to. More times than I can count. Possibly more times than his visits to the hospital."
"I'll admit, he has been here quite a lot. Frankly Sasuke, what would your parents think to see their family so… broken?"
Tsunade had known Sasuke's mother who had been a former nurse at the hospital.
She pitied seeing her friend's sons so distant and continuously falling apart.
"Now you're stepping out of line. You didn't know my parents the way I did. You're a doctor, now act like one and stay out of our business."
Sasuke continued to walk away.

What does she know? Nothing. She didn't know them like that. She doesn't know us like that. If Itachi needed help wouldn't he ask for it?

Sasuke caught a cab.He stepped in and told the driver the address. He picked up his phone and dialed Temari's number.
After many rings, she finally picked up.
"Y-yeah?" She said groggily.
"Hey. Sorry for calling so late, but I'm just returning the favor."
Temari laughed softly. "Yeah, yeah. So what do you need?"
"Think you can meet me somewhere?"
"Now?"
Sasuke frowned. "Yes."
Temari groaned. "Fine. I'm gonna go get dressed. Where do you want to meet me?"


A few days had gone by, Naruto occasionally getting harassed by Sasuke at work.
Today, a typical Friday; nothing out of the ordinary seemed to trouble Naruto.
Naruto sat in a booth across from Hinata.
"Thanks for coming along."
"It's cool, Hinata. I didn't want you to eat lunch alone."
Hinata stabbed at her salad. "I've noticed Sasuke hunts you down around the office. And the studio. Even in the bathroom."
Naruto let his head fall on the table with a bang. "Please Hinata. Don't remind me. It's like he's my freakin' shadow or something."
Hinata giggled. "Well, if I knew any better I'd say he's taken an interest in you."
"I don't get what everyone sees in that guy any way. He's just an arrogant jerk. He walks around all high and mighty. He's so full of himself."
"Am I really?"
Naruto's jaw dropped. He turned blue. Despite his mouth being wide open, no air was flowing in or out.
"Naruto?" Hinata asked worriedly.
Naruto was forgetting to breathe. Yet again.
"What's the matter dobe?"
"I told you not to call me that!"
Sasuke pushed Naruto over, taking a seat extremely close to him.
Naruto pushed his ramen aside, shifting uncomfortably.
"Hope you don't mind if I join you two."
"Not at all, Sasuke." Hinata said with a grin.
Naruto grumbled. "Stupid Sasuke…and his...bleh."
Temari stood in front of the table. "Well, two's company. Three's a crowd. Four's a party. Do you guys mind?"
"Well I don't know Temari. I'm extremely full of myself. Would you really be willing to take a seat with a jerk like me?" Sasuke asked sarcastically.
Temari chuckled. "Hardy har har. Sasuke, your sense of humor is irrevocable. It's practically a car accident waiting to happen."
Sasuke's smile fell off of his face. His expression returned to his 'I-don't-give-a-shit' look.
Temari quickly realized her mistake.
"Sasu-"
"Temari. Forget it. Just sit down." He said unabashedly.
Temari took a seat next to Hinata. She set her plate down on the table.
There was an awkward silence, along with a dead still.
Naruto coughed.
"U-uh."
"So um Sasuke, how's your brother doing?"
"He's fine. He'll be out of the hospital in about two days."
Temari smiled at Hinata. "I love your shirt. Where'd you get it?"
Hinata beamed. There was nothing on the planet that made her happier than a compliment. She self loathed a lot, and felt loads better knowing someone appreciated her in some way.

"Oh I got it down by the Manhattan mall. I could take you there after work if you'd like."
"I'll come too. I need a few things before I go back to my apartment on Sunday." Naruto said, taking a sip of his iced tea.
"That sounds like fun." Sasuke said calmly.
Naruto nearly drowned on his drink.
Sasuke's hand roamed underneath the table, rubbing Naruto's inner thigh.
"Great! We can all go together!" Temari said with a smile.
Naruto felt his face getting hot, but he couldn't do anything to prevent it.
"Naruto? Are you okay?" Hinata asked.
"M-me? I-I'm just f-fine. D--dandy." He stuttered out. His voice had come out high-pitched, making Sasuke smirk.
"Peachy. So we'll all meet here after work?"
Feel, feel, feel.

Naruto shifted uncomfortably in his seat.
Nobody can see Sasuke's hand touching Naruto.
Inner Naruto was bashing himself.

How can no one notice what he's doing? And why am I not doing anything to stop him? This is wrong. Super wrong. So, so, so wrong.

Sasuke's hand drew closer. It hovered lightly over Naruto's crotch.
Naruto bit his lip.
Inner Naruto jumped off a building.
Sasuke groped softly.
"Naruto are you alright?" Sasuke asked with a grin.
He pretended nothing was wrong, and kept on talking as if everything was fine.
Naruto held in his moan, reaching over the table. He slapped Temari's plate off the table.
It crashed on the floor, conversation stopping.
"O-oh snap! Better call a waitress over!" Naruto said tiredly.
Temari raised an eyebrow.
Naruto nearly jumped from his seat, Sasuke's hand knocked off of his lap in the process.
He climbed over Sasuke.
"U-uh Hinata I think it's time we go back to work?"
Hinata nodded. "Yeah I guess so. We'll see you guys later."
Naruto and Hinata exited the restaurant leaving Sasuke and Temari to themselves.
Temari shook her head. "You're absolutely evil."
Sasuke smirked. "It's not like he objected."
