Now Sasuke knew what trusting people could lead to. He had trusted Naruto not to hurt him but he did. He opened himself to him and got his heart torn to pieces. He had thought that Naruto was different that he wouldn't hurt him, but he was wrong. He had seen Naruto kissing Sakura in the garden. If he was with Sakura why had he invited Sasuke out there? Did he purposely set it up so that he could hurt him?

Naruto didn't seem like the person who would do something like that. He was with Sakura now and Sasuke hoped she broke his heart twice over so that he would know how he felt right now.

Sasuke felt alone and broken, he was used to being alone and when he met someone like him they hurt him. He'd skipped dinner again to sit in the dark room that he and Naruto shared. The doors unfortunately didn't have locks so soon Naruto would be coming from dinner.

He knew that he would try to explain himself but Sasuke didn't want to hear it what he had seen was proof enough that Naruto didn't care about him anymore. He didn't want to hear lame excuses.

"They were kissing; he told me I was the only one he loved." "I should have never believed him I should have never trusted him."

He turned on the radio beside his bed hoping music would help his racing mind.

It's strange to think the songs we used to sing
the smiles, the flowers, everything: is gone
Yesterday I found out about you
Even now just looking at you: feels wrong

He wasn't much for country music but this song seemed to be talking about how he was feeling. What he and Naruto had was over; he didn't want it to be. He was slowly warming up to people and now he'd closed back in on himself.

You say that you'd take it all back, given one chance
it was a moment of weakness and you said yes...
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice before you let it all go
You should've know that word, bout what you did with her
Would get back to me...

"If he decided he didn't want to be with me he could have broken off what we had in a nicer way then this." "How could he fall for Sakura?" "She knows he's in The Hebi now that's probably the only reason she talked to him." "She wants a rock star boyfriend to flaunt."

And I should've been there, in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
you shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet...
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me

"Did he not think of how much this would hurt me?" "I'm so stupid for believing he cared about me." "If he would've said no to Sakura we could still be together."

You can see that I've been crying
and baby you know all the right things: to say
but do you honestly expect me to believe
we could ever be the same...
You say that the past is the past, you need one chance
it was a moment of weakness and you said yes...

He had been crying but the tears had stopped and soon Naruto would be trying to apologize but he didn't even want to hear it. It was too late to save what they had. He had just come to terms with his feelings for the blonde and now it was over.

I can't resist... before you go, tell me this
was it worth it...
Was she worth this...?
No... No no no...
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice before you let it all go
You should've know that word, bout what you did with her
Would get back to me...

"Naruto, was Sakura worth the end of us?" "I just want to know why, why did you break my heart?"

And I should've been there, in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
you shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet...
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me

The song ended and even though it was country the song explained the situation he was in. He curled up on the bed, fresh tears coming from his eyes. He didn't think he would ever trust anyone again not after this.

--------And we know it's never simple, never easy------------------------------------

At dinner Naruto scanned the dining room for Sasuke, but he wasn't there. He knew Sasuke must have skipped dinner again and was more then likely hid away in their room.

"Why did I let Sakura kiss me?" "Now everything I had with Sasuke is lost and it's all thanks to her." "I have to apologize to him and explain what happened was just a misunderstanding."

"Naruto, do you know where Sasuke is?" Naruto jumped not noticing that Iruka had been standing beside him.

Naruto thought of a cover story so that Sasuke wouldn't get in more trouble. "He said he didn't feel well so he went to bed early."

"Oh is he sick?" "It's probably just a minor thing, he'll be better by tomorrow." "Well maybe I should get Kakashi to look at him." "I think he'll be fine, if he's still not feeling well tomorrow I'll make sure to tell you."

Iruka looked at him trying to tell if he was lying. He smiled seeming to believe Naruto's cover story. "Alright then, sleep well." He walked off; Naruto took a deep breath and headed upstairs to try to explain what had really happened to Sasuke.

Naruto knocked on the door but Sasuke didn't respond. He took a deep breath pushing the door open and walking in. Like so many times before the room was dark. He scanned the darkness, finding the dark haired teen sleeping soundly in his bed.

He crept to his side of the room, changing into his night clothes and crawling into his own bed. "So much for trying to explain."

"Naruto?" The blonde's ears perked at the sound of Sasuke's voice. "Sasuke I-wa" "I don't want to hear it, I know what I saw." "Please just…don't talk to me from now on."

"Sasuke, I can explain." "I don't care!" Sasuke screeched "please Naruto just don't talk to me anymore."

Naruto couldn't believe Sasuke wouldn't even let him explain. He viewed the situation from Sasuke's point of view and saw that if he had seen Sasuke kissing someone else he wouldn't want to talk to him either.

"Ok, I'm just…I'm sorry Sasuke." Sasuke didn't reply to him, he assumed he fell asleep the room grew silent again, if Naruto could have seen through the darkness he would have seen that the Uchiha's eyes were wide awake, and was biting his lip to keep himself from crying.

Naruto lay facing the other direction trying to keep himself from crying. "It's over; I ruined any chance of Sasuke opening up to people." "I tried to help him, but all I did was hurt him even more."

"Why do I ruin everything?" "It was my own fault my parents died." "Why did I ever think I could help anyone, when I screw everything up?"

That night once he finally fell asleep his dreams were filled with blood and dead bodies and a man who stared coldly at him. This time when he woke up screaming, Sasuke wasn't there to hold him and comfort him.

When he looked over to Sasuke's bed, the Uchiha wasn't even there at all.

-------------------------Never a clean break no one here to save me---------------

When Sasuke had woken up to Naruto's screams he had wanted to hold him like he had before, but he held himself back. Naruto was having another nightmare and he wasn't going to help him. He just couldn't.

Naruto thrashed and murmured words to low to hear beside him. He couldn't handle seeing Naruto trapped in the nightmare realm. He jumped out of bed and ran out the door.

He quietly walked downstairs and easily climbed out a window. He shut it behind him, walking out into the warm summer night. The moon above him was shining down brightly. He walked to the field were the horses stayed and sat down.

The bright moon and stars reminded him of a night he wanted so bad to forget. The sky was light up brightly the night his parents were murdered. The memories pulled to the surface but he pushed them away.

Naruto's parents had been murdered just like his, he knew the pain of losing your whole family at one time, he knew what those lonely quite nights felt like. He knew the pain of the nightmares and how one night could be re-played over and over until you woke up screaming and tears were pouring from your eyes.

Naruto would understand everything, because he knew the same pain. He had tried to trust him, tried to let him in just a little. Then Naruto broke his heart in one blow. He still cared about the blonde, that little bit of opportunity was all it took for the blonde to make his way into Sasuke's heart.

He closed his eyes, the cool breeze swept past his face. The wind blew around him blowing his hair astray. "Without him, how will I be able to make it?" "How can I manage without him in my life?" "I haven't really known him that long but, I just can't let him go." "He—makes me happy."

-------------------You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand-------------------

Naruto opened the bedroom door quietly, he walked downstairs escaping outside where he thought Sasuke might be. He walked through the sports area and past the painting easels that were sat up outside. He finally spotted Sasuke asleep beside the horses pasture.

He knelt down beside him brushing the loose hair from his face. Idiot you shouldn't sleep outside. Carefully he picked the raven up bridal style carrying him back to bed. He placed him gently in the bed tucking him in before crawling back into his own bed.

"Naruto" Sasuke whispered in his sleep, turning over. Naruto froze hearing Sasuke speak his name. "I'm so sorry Sasuke." He whispered falling asleep.


At breakfast the next morning Sasuke sat away from Naruto, he watched as girls flaunted around him. Impressed that he was in a band, he had woken up in his bed this morning but he knew he was beside the horse pasture when he fell asleep. Had Naruto found him or someone else?

He watched has Sakura pushed a girl out of her way so that she could sit beside Naruto. Her short skirt ridded up when she sat down exposing more of her legs. Sasuke glared at her. Naruto said something he couldn't hear then got up and walked away leaving Sakura stunned.

Could he have rejected her after what she had caused. She deserved it, the girls around her started laughing at her. She got up storming out of the cafeteria. Sasuke smirked leaving the café.

---------I can't breathe without you but I have to-----------------------------

"I don't know what to do Iruka, he wont speak to me." "The thing with Sakura was a mistake." Naruto said to Iruka in the counseling room. "Have you tried to talk to him?" "Yes but he's convinced that I kissed her on purpose." Naruto gritted his teeth. "I ruin everything, he trusted me and I ruined all that!" "It's all my fault I should've known what she was up to."

"Naruto calm down you cant blame what happened on yourself, you thought she was just trying to be friends."

"Still I should have known what she was up, I hurt Sasuke and I cant live with that, I don't know how to fix this."

"I have a session with Sasuke later, I'll talk to him for a while then I'll call you in here too so you'll have to talk to each other."

Naruto smiled, "Thanks Iruka."


"Sasuke I know what happened between you and Naruto." "I've heard his side of the story and I believe this is just a misunderstanding." Sasuke looked out the window, "I don't want to hear it, I saw him kissing her what was there to misunderstand?" "He's in love with her now."

Iruka sighed trying to work out the issues of teenagers was exhausting. "Naruto will be here shortly I'm going to make you work this out." As if on queue there was a knock at the door. It opened revealing Naruto on the other side.

He sat beside Sasuke on the couch, "now talk to each other."

"Sasuke please just listen Sakura tricked me I didn't know she was trying to get me back." "I only care about you I never lied about that."

"I can't believe that, I'm sorry Naruto." "I'm willing to be your friend, but as for what we had its over." He got up walking out the door. Naruto sat there stunned, "Thanks Iruka but I'll just have to give him some time." Naruto said sullenly walking out the door.

Iruka shook his head he wasn't sure if even he could fix them.

The summer breeze blew nicely as Naruto sat outside playing the guitar he had brought with him. He'd written this song for Sasuke though he doubted he'd ever get the chance to play it for him.

Life's a circle and it spins me around, a broken record always making the same sound. Time to time I get my hopes up just to find I only get let down. Like a season that refuses to change a stubborn winter growing colder everyday give me something that can warm me up again.

Naruto understood Sasuke better then anyone. He knew what it was like to have your parents murdered. Sasuke needed him and he wont give up until Sasuke realizes he's not completely alone.

I swear to let it in, you're my something you're my everything you're the one that makes me feel alive. You end my suffering you end my misery you're the one that makes me feel alive. You can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay, you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in. You can run you can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in.

Sasuke was everything to him, the only one he's ever truly loved. But now that was over because of one mistake. He had broken Sasuke's heart and he didn't think he could ever fix it.

Like an ocean I just keep making waves, you are my vessel with an anchor that will never stray. You're the one who can wake me up again, I swear to let you in, you're my something you're my everything you're the one that makes me feel alive. You end my suffering you end my misery you're the one that makes me feel alive.

Before he had met Sasuke he had been just as lonely, none of the other children he knew had ever wanted to play with him. They called him a monster and a freak blaming him for his parents murders. When he met Sasuke all that faded away, he had met someone who truly understood him and for the first time he was happy.

You can run you can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in. You can run you can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in.

He loved Sasuke and would tell him his entire life story if he would listen he was willing to let Sasuke into his heart, but Sasuke was more isolated and didn't trust people the way he did. His parent's deaths had a different impact on him.

You can run you can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in. You can run you can run you can run away, I would find you and convince you to stay you're the one who can warm me up again I swear to let you in.

He ended the song letting the wind carry his voice off.

"That was a beautiful song." Naruto turned to the sound of a familiar voice. Sasuke was standing by a tree close to the wall were he was sitting. "How long have you been standing there?" "Long enough to hear that song, who did you write it for." Sasuke asked moving to sit beside the blonde.

"Someone who's very special to me." "Who would that be?" "You." Naruto stated simply. "That song was about me?" Blue eyes met black, "I wrote it for you, because I love and care about you."

Sasuke stared off into the sky." Naruto I—" "Sasuke please just listen, I'm want to tell you everything about my past, so you can understand that I know what it's like to be alone." "I don't care if you believe what happened between me and Sakura was intentional or not."

"Will you just listen?" Sasuke nodded. "Like you know my parents were murdered." "Everyone thought that I did it, that I killed my parents. They called me a monster, they said I was a demon that I shouldn't be alive."

"None of the other kids my age would talk to me, because of what their parents had told them about me." "I was completely alone, I developed an alternate personality called Kyubi, a demon fox." "Kyubi tormented my mind telling me that I should kill everyone who called me a monster."

"I never gave into Kyubi and thanks to physiatrists he went away." Naruto stared off into the sky at something that wasn't their. He smiled, "When I met you Sasuke I could tell that you were just as alone as I was, I thought that I could finally have a friend someone who didn't think that I was a monster."

"When we were younger Sakura somehow saw through the demon mask that people had placed on me, but eventually she didn't want me." "I'm sorry for what happened, I don't like her, why would I after what she did?"

"After she hurt you?" Naruto turned his attention back to Sasuke. Sasuke bit his lip to stop the tears that were forming in his eyes. "I'm sorry Naruto what they called you your not a monster and I'm sorry for not believing you."

Naruto wiped the single tear from Sasuke's eye. "I love you Naruto." He whispered leaning in to kiss Naruto. They pulled apart tears forming in both their eyes, happy that they hadn't said goodbye forever. "I love you too Sasuke." Naruto said pulling Sasuke into a hug.

He pulled back seeing Kakashi and Iruka running toward them. "I'm glad we found you." Iruka said stopping to catch his breath. Naruto looked at Kakashi, "What's wrong?" "Sasuke you need to come with us, your brothers in the hospital."

Sasuke's eyes widened, he felt his world shatter. Naruto had to catch him before his head hit the ground.
