Sasuke was cold and hungry. But as Naruto said, he was always hungry.
Maby then...he wasn't at all.
He wished Naruto would come back and help him, he couldn't help but wish even though he shouldn't have.
"I should learn to live on my own...again.." He remembered his old life back where he had moved back with Kakashi seven years ago. His life had become so pretected, so cousioned. It made him digusted in himself.
He stared into the blackness, seeing only Naruto when he opened and closed his eyes.
It was truley shocking to him how much he missed that dobe.
"Neji, you can sleep on the couch." The Hyuuga yawned.
"Sure."
Naruto left to get a blanket for him, but by the time he got back, Neji was already alseep on the couch.
Naruto sat down next to him, drapped the blanket around the Hyuuga, and Neji, unconsiously for he never would have done this in consious, snuggled closer. Naruto brushed the hair out of his face.
He was so much like Sasuke.
This is when he found himself moving away.
"I like you Neji, but it's Sasuke who I..." He sighed. I don't think I've ever been this lonley...
"Move over Neji."
Naruto sighed, his heart-rate increasing as he thought of Sasuke. His breathing became harsh, and his mind was racing. He shifted uncomfortably.
What if Sasuke didn't...
What if he didn't...
Naruto shivered as he wiped the sweat of his pale forehead. He was silently relieved as Neji burried his head into his arm.
"Oh, Sasuke..." He said as he brought Neji as close as he could. "I hope this dosn't count as cheating."
"I don't know where he is!" Naruto hissed "How will I ever save him if I don't know where he is!"
Neji sighed as he sipped a cup of steaming coffee, enjoying the slightly burning sensation that warmed his whole face.
"I can help you, although I don't know myself."
"What help woud you possibley be?"
"I don't know. I can try can't I? Just give me one chance."
Naruto sighed.
"Fine. I have no fucking leads or anything at all. I'm open to anything."
Neji sighed.
"I should be getting back to Gaara..." Neji sighed again, but Naruto shook his head. "I need your help, and Gaara's not really...well you know...people friendly."
The hyuuga nodded and put his head on his hands, yawning. Naruto did the same, as if the yawn was contagious.
"Sasuke...you will never know how much I love you..." Neji would pretend he didn't here that and pulled on his coat.
"Where are you going..." He said, in a tone that made it sound more like a statment. "What do you think? I'm searching for Sasuke. I'm suprise you haven't thought of just going down there- I meen he's your lover."
"He's not my-"
"What ever, Naruto. Let's go."
Sasuke couldn't believe he had six days to live.
"We need your help, both of you."
Kakashi scratched his head and yawned, just as Iruka apeared at the door. Iruka gave him the why-are-here-it's seven-in-the-morning look but rolled his eyes and asked Naruto;
"How may we be of service?" Neji's jaket covered half his face. "We it would help if you didn't leave us out here while you talked to us...that is If. You. Don't. Mind."
Kakashi gave Naruto a look and mouthed the word 'fiesty' and Naruto shrugged.
"Please...come in."
Neji sipped a hot cup of apple cider as he half-listened to Naruto and Iruka's almost silent conversation.
"So...wearhouse?"
"Yes, but it's too obvious, and you and I both know that it's too dangerous as well."
Kakashi nodded.
"You can tell by the wounds we've suffered; he's right."
"I'm always right." Kakashi rolled his eyes. "You wish." And shuved Iruka of the couch.
"Damn you!" Neji sighed with bordom as he watched Iruka push Kakashi back. Kakashi clutched his arm.
"Not...funny." He breathed. Iruka sighed. He knew when Kakashi Hitake was kidding.
"Please, this is important you guys." They both turned to Naruto who was crossing his arms and waiting for an answer. "And please hurry; Neji looks bored out of his skull."
Neji heared he was mentioned, but showed no sign of it.
"All I'm saying is you guys were there. We need leads. Can you help us." He said it like he said the other previous sentences. Iruka sighed-it was long and thoughful, and Naruto winced. He knew, after knowing him for so long, that nothing good was coming.
"Naruto look. I'm not telling you, because you can't go there by yourself. I'm actually really suprised they havn't killed him yet. I meen, wasn't that the whole reason for capturing us? Unless...knowing him..."
Kakashi nodded gravely, and watched with slight curiousity the way Naruto reacted to Sasuke's name. But he would ask further questions later.
"You can't go alone. You have no idea how dangerous that is. You'd be putting your lives in dan-"
"I don't fucking care! All I care about is getting Sasuke back!" Naruto slammed his fists against the coffee table. Kakashi raised an eyebrow. What was Sasuke trying to tell him about Naruto? He decided to be sympathetic.
"Oh, maby we can get Sakura to come!" That should get him a little less..angry. Kakashi was suprised when Naruto glared at him. Didn't he like Sakura?
"She dosn't know. She won't care. I'm really not in the mood for a perky, pink, annoying-"
"What's going on?" Kakashi was dying to know. "What's gotten into you?"
"What do you meen?"
"I meen that when the last time I saw you, you loved Sakura, you hated Sasuke, and you were alot less serious. Can you please explain?" Iruka looked at Naruto, and Naruto looked at Iruka.
"Wow, Kakashi. You're slow." Neji commented. Kakashi pulled down his mask to stick his tounge out, witch was strange to see, but non-the-less, expected.
"That's not important, Kakashi..."
"Stop trying to change the subject! What happened!"
"I'm not trying to-"
"Yes you are! Just tell me!"
"Kakashi I-"
"Naruto, please te-"
"SASUKE AND I ARE GOING OUT! There I said it!" Kakashi gulped. Good thing I didn't tell him I basically made-out with his boyfriend.
It was really quiet for a moment, Neji stopped drinking the apple cider and his eyes were wide for a minute until he sighed. How boring. After a while, a suprisingly long while, Kakashi spoke up.
"Oh...so that explains it all...yeah, so...ummm...have you done it?" Who would have guessed that would be Kakashi's first question.
"No! Shut up!"
"Oh so that means-"
"Look, we're really into your life story and your love-issues, Naruto, but Kami please, get on with it!"
They all stared at Neji. It was true, who would want to here everything ...from the lies to the cheating...
"Please."
"Naruto as much as I'd like to help you, you can't you alone..." Naruto knew what was coming. But by the way Neji reacted, with 'no, no, holy shit no', it was like he knew too.
"We're coming with you two. That's final."
Neji sighed and gave Naruto the 'you know that we could have done it ourselves were 22' look, and Naruto shot back a 'I know, I know,' but then gave up.
"When can we leave?" Naruto said, physically pulling Neji out of the chair. He didn't notice Kakashi pulling on his coat.
"Right now." I just can't leave him all alone anymore.'
I know you worry about me
But you shouldn't
Your better off without me
Even though you say you couldn't.
But I don't believe that
I don't believe anything anymore
I promised my self the last time it failed me
I would never do it again
But what's a promise, anyway?
To myself no less.
I don't know. I don't know anything anymore.
I don't even know If I'm real
How should I know if our love is?
All I ever feel now is hate.
I forget so fast what love feels like
I feel ashamed I've forgotten what your kiss is like
It's slipping through my fingers slick and wet like rain.
But then I relized that makes it
Just like tears.
You told me that somtimes its good to rain
That it makes things grow and live.
Wouldn't it then make it...
Good to cry?
Just because I cry alot..dosn't mean every tear isn't like acid.
But you say it's good to cry.
What have I been then...if your right...without rain?
I don't want to find out so I'll keep hiding from it.
Hate's the only real thing in my life
It's hard, it's like ice.
Wait-who am I kidding. It is ice.
It's me.
The rain's like you, but wouldn't that make you tears too?
You might as well be.
But don't worry, I'm tears like you.
But hardened tears turned to ice.
I'm sorry but...
Now Love is just a word to me.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
Sasuke licked the blood dripping down his forehead to his lips. The salt burned the chapped flesh and pain pulsed through his veins. It calmed him slightly, and he rested his head against the wall. He felt the chains weighing down his legs. He smiked at how many jokes Naruto could have made about his situations.
"Missing your lover?"
"He's not my lover." His he tried to control his rapid breathing. "Why are you here, and why arn't I dead." He traced his finger around the snarl that bordered Sasuke's face. Feeling the touch, he snapped at it, like the movment of a caged beast.
"Animalistic. I would have thought better of you..." Sasuke's shoulders tenced. "Sasuke..kun.."
"Don't call me..that...just answer my questions." A shiver rippled down Sasuke's spine. He twinged, his fingers curling into a fist.
That hate...It's almost as strong as the love I feel for you.
"Because I like to see..." He paused, Sasuke's heart racing. He thought it was going to stop. "My victims squirm with fear...before they die." Blood pounded in his ears.
Naruto I need your strenth.
Sasuke hated giving him the advantage.
I need a guide because I'm blind.
It was true, he couldn't deny it, that fear corsed through his blood, like poison, slowly paralizing him.
What happened to walking with me?
He watched the other's eyes in the darkness, faintly glowing in the light of the moon. They were the kind of eyes that didn't betray any emotion. The worst kind.
All I'm doing now...
Even while chained...
My heart's beating to fast...
"And I can see it. The fear...swimming in your eyes...the fear of your master."
"Master...?"
I don't listen to anyone.
The man smirked and turned, his pale, almost silver skin the color of moonlight.
"So beautiful to look at...but so dangerous to touch. Isn't that was he learned the hard way? Your-"
"Shut up!" The shackles on his legs pinned him as he lunged. "That was a long time ago!"
"But scars are perminent."
The lives I've ruined...
"So is death." He didn't reply, but left one statment that chilled him to the bone:
Is that why your not helping me?
"You know, Sasuke, you are like a caged animal. Pretty, Sad, Afraid, and short lived.
Your going to let me die?
Kinda weird...but I love writting the Sasuke parts! LOL!
I have really no ideas...so unless you want another filler...I guess I can make a mini-plot or somthing...lol
REVEIW!
