A/N: Sorry for taking so long but I edited this and changed it completely to fit my plotline and this is the result. This is a short chapter but after listening to mucho Linkin Park inspiration hit me and this was created. I noticed the writing style changed but it could not be controlled so…enjoy! Read and Review please!

The red digits on the bedside table read 2:03 a.m. His eyes were heavy with sleep but the nightmares that formed beneath his eyelids kept them open. Dark shadows on the plain white ceiling began to form themselves into agonized faces, faces frozen in the midst of horror, torture, and pain. He knew he should begin to sleep but the memories were too much for his tired body and soul.
Soon Naruto stood in front of his darkened window, staring out at the starless sky. His eyes searched for something, anything, that would help him. He wished he wasn't here, his chest lifting with every breath he took, his pulse beating endlessly underneath his skin. His heart ached to find a clue as to what to do. His body was still living, but it was hollow from the inside, slowly rotting and ceasing to exist.
The warmth from his breath fogged the tinted glass, and with a shaky hand, he began to clean it. His eyes widened as a dark figured emerged from underneath a street lamp and his pulse began to slowly accelerate as he recognized it. Sasuke Uchiha was here…
He suspected Sasuke would keep going, past this building and onto the next, but his stomach gave a lurch as Sasuke entered the gray mass he considered a home. He did not understand the feeling in the pit of his stomach, and did not want to understand it.
Still, curiosity got the best of him, and he wanted to know why, of all places, was Sasuke Uchiha here. Naruto's dull eyes, for a moment, contained a sign of life. His unclothed feet caused his body to shiver as he walked across the cold wood floor toward his door. He didn't' understand what he was doing, only followed his body's impulse. Slow, graceful steps echoed in the empty corridor. Naruto was only able to hear them by the aid of the building's silence. A small click, squeak, and thump was heard as a door was opened and shut.
Naruto knew for certain that the tenant next door to him was none other than Sasuke Uchiha. He felt a small smile begin to curl his lips upward and fought against it. Many thoughts raced inside his mind but he ignored them all. He knew he wouldn't be sleeping but now his mind had something to preoccupy itself with.
