oooooooooooooooooooo

There's absolutely no way in hell. Sasuke didn't even think about it; he slammed the door in Naruto's face.

"I have the keeeey!" came the voice on the other side of the door.

He opened the door with a glare. He walked back over the his bed and growled "I'm going to bed. If I still see you when I wake up, I won't hesitate to kick you out myself."

And with that Sasuke pulled the covers over him and closed his eyes.

If that fucking idiot even dares to...

oooooooooooooooooooo

He woke up to a loud banging coming from the kitchen. He hoped, he fucking hoped to kami that that was not Naruto and instead was a huge cockroach that decided to make himself breakfast.

He walked to the kitchen and spotted Naruto on the floor, quickly picking up the toast he had dropped on the floor. Naruto saw him and gave him a sheepish grin.

"Uh...good morning?"

Sasuke ignored him because he was too distracted by the sight of his destroyed kitchen. There was burnt toast in the sink, the pots and pans were all over the floor, and was that butter under his feet?

He lifted his foot up to look at it. Yup, that was definitely butter.

He glanced up sharply at Naruto.

"What the fuck are you doing?"

"Making breakfast...?"

"Then what the fuck is that black shit all over the stove?"

"Um. I like my eggs well done."

Sasuke took a deep breath. Shit, he had only been awake for 5 fucking minutes and he was already going to blow a fuse.

He grabbed Naruto by his shirt.

"I thought I told you that if you didn't leave that I would personally kick your ass out!"

"Wait! Hear me out! I'm running from some really scary guys and if they find me then they're going to kill me!"

Insert faux innocent face here.

"What the fuck do I care?"

"If I die then it's going to be on your conscious forever and you'll die an unhappy, guilt-ridden man!"

"Ask your other friends."

"I already did...but none of them would take me in. All the other good places would tell them where I was. Besides, they were making me repay my debt."

"I see what kind of moronic person you are. Either way, you can't stay here. I just moved in and I don't want to be living with anybody."

Naruto threw himself onto the ground, his arms spread open.

"If you want me out then you're going to have to cut my brain out!"

Sasuke quickly grabbed a knife and lowered himself to straddle the blond.

"Fine by me, I've always wanted to see what an idiot's brain looked like."

"You're so mean Sasuke! I can't stay out on the streets! People could sneak up and rape beautiful me!"

"Shut up. Why do I have to take care of someone that I barely know?"

"Because we're friends."

Sasuke got quiet. He didn't really know what to say to that. He was definitely not expecting that.

"Since when?"

"I was happy with you. Yeah, you're kinda...ok, really rude but I thought you were a good guy on the inside. But I see how you are..."

"I told you, I just got used to living by myself. Besides, who the hell would want someone who picks pockets living with them?"

"That was just a joke. Your brooding was coming off as waves and I just wanted to tease you a little."

Naruto held up both of his hands, "Ok, I'll make a promise that as your friend I would never steal from you. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. But c'mon, give me a break! I won't even eat that much and I'll sleep in a cabinet if you want me to!"

Sasuke ran his hand over his face. He was too fucking tired for this shit.

"I'll eat breakfast and think about it."

Naruto's eyes brightened and he gave Sasuke a sunny smile.

"Thank you Sasuke! You're such a good guy!" he ran to give Sasuke a hug but was intercepted by Sasuke's hand stopping him from getting closer.

"I said I would think about it!"

But Naruto knew that there's was nothing to think about.

"Thanks Sasuke..." Naruto's smile lightened his whole face and was the absolute epitome of beauty.

Sasuke felt his heart skip a beat.

oooooooooooooooooooo

Sasuke was quickly pulled out of his thoughts when he heard a loud voice next to him. He saw Suigetsu and realized that he was at work.

"Sasuke! I've been calling your name for 10 minutes now! What the hell are you thinking about?"

Sasuke studied Suigetsu's face and Suigetsu stared back in question.

"Hey...Suigetsu...smile for me."

Suigetsu didn't even think about the weird request and gave a huge grin, his sharp teeth sticking out.

Sasuke shuddered.

Nevermind.

He thought back to Naruto's smile this morning.

I thought his smiling face was pretty cute...what the fuck?

ooooooooooooooo

There was a firm knocking at the door.

A dread headed young man grumbled as he walked to the door, cursing whoever the hell it was. He opened it and immediately wanted to close it.

"Gaa...Gaara! How did you...I thought you were still in jail!"

The red head walked into the apartment without so much as an invitation. His green eyes scanned the apartment. When he didn't find what he was looking for he glared down at the man.

"Naruto lives here, does he not? Where is he? I came to get him."

The frightened man, although quite terrified could not help but to admire the red head's appearance. He was tall and lean with obvious muscles. His face was an exotic masterpiece, with his bright red hair and his lack of eyebrows only emphasized his beautiful emerald eyes. On his forehead was the kanji for "Ai" in blood red ink, which was ironic because the man was the coldest person who could ever exist.

"He...packed his things up last night and left."

Gaara raised a non-existant eyebrow.

The man grew even more nervous but cleared his throat and continued on while trying to avoid Gaara's gaze.

"It's the truth. He even stole my money," he then motioned to his bandaged face, "this is all his doing too!"

"Where did he go?"

"Who cares? I let him live with me and this is how he repays me...? Whatever, enough about Naruto. When did you get out? "

"What the hell do you think you're doing? Naruto isn't the type of person to hit someone for no reason. So the question is, what did you do to him?"

The man looked around nervously and gave a choked laugh.

"I see."

He grabbed the man by the neck and pinned him to the wall as he used his other hand to punch him in the face. The man's face started to bleed as Gaara let go of his neck and he slid down slowly. Gaara kicked the man in the stomach and he gasped, the pain becoming unbearable. But Gaara wasn't done yet. He grabbed the man by his dreads and slammed his face into the floor. Gaara straigtened up and lifted his foot to grind it against the broken man's face.

"If you ever touch him again, I'll kill you."

And he walked out, his face showing no sign of remorse or pity.

He just needed to find Naruto.

Soon.

oooooooooooooooooooooo

Sasuke felt great, the wind blowing in his face felt amazing. Riding on his motorcycle always was a great stress reliever.

A red haired man suddenly stepped onto the street, obviously not looking where he was crossing.

Shit.

Sasuke pressed on the brakes but they were stuck.

Shit, fuck, damn.

He swerved to avoid the redhead asshole and his bike threw him off.

The last thing he remembered was the man's cold eyes and thinking "Fuck, I really have to fix that piece of shit."

ooooooooooooooooooo

When he woke up he was in a hospital with Suigetsu looking over him. He had a cast on his right arm and his shirt was gone.

I really liked that fucking shirt...

"Shit Sasuke! You could've fucking died, you fucking asshole!"

"Shut the fuck up. Take me home."

So Suigetsu shut up and took him home.

ooooooooooooooooooooo

They arrived at his apartment complex, Suigetsu holding on to Sasuke's waist, trying to help him walk. They entered and stood in front of the stairs. Sasuke looked at Suigetsu expectantly and Suigetsu just looked at Sasuke in confusion.

"What?"

"Take me up the fucking stairs idiot."

"What the fuck? You have no elevator?"

Five flights of stairs later and an exhuasted Suigetsu, they now stood in front of his door.

Sasuke rolled his eyes at Suigetsu for his weak condition.

Fucking pussy.

He grabbed his key from his pocket and jiggled the doorknob. When they got in they saw Naruto in shorts and a black tank top drinking milk out of the carton. He had changed his hairstyle so that it looked even messier than before and his blue eyes widened in surprise as he saw Sasuke. His full lips parted and he ran to Sasuke.

"Are you ok? What happened?"

Sasuke was pleased. He'd never seen Naruto this concerned before. He quickly realized that he arrived with Suigetsu and yet the white haired man hadn't made a noise. That was strange for a loudmouth. He looked back and saw Suigetsu staring at Naruto in wonder.

"I didn't know that you lived with such a hottie Sasuke!"

Sasuke blinked.

"What? This guy? You do realize he's a guy, right?" and to emphasize his point, he grabbed Naruto by the waist and pulled his shirt up.

"See, no tits."

"Sasuke-bastard!" Naruto flushed in embarrasment, whether because Sasuke's friend had thought he was a girl or because Sasuke had just sexually harassed him, he didn't really know.

He looked into Sasuke's friend's face and winced at the dejected look on his face.

Ok...note to self: weirdo.

"Uh. Hi, my name is Naruto!" Naruto then flashed the man his best smile and watched in amusement as he blushed and ran off. Really, if all of Sasuke's friends were like that then he wanted to meet all of them.

"You have some really nice friends Sasuke."

"Fucking idiot. Don't seduce him, he'll become even more of a moron."

"I can't help it if people are attracted to me. They say that beauty doesn't matter in gender. A man can be so beautiful that he can make other men fall in love with him."

"So you're happy because you're a freak?"

"Shut up bastard!"

Naruto sat beside Sasuke on his bed and inched his face closer to his.

"What are you doing?"

"Making you attracted to me. Is it working?"

He realized he had never really been this close to Naruto before. His hair was close enough to smell and it tickled his nose. He smelled musky and sweet. An odd combination. His long eyelashes fluttered provacatively and his lips pursed sweetly. His eyes snapped to his onyx ones and Sasuke mentally shuddered at the intensity in those azure eyes. He felt himself getting closer and closer...

And he shoved a hand in Naruto's face.

"Like hell it is. You're a fucking moron."

Naruto turned around in a huff.

"I see it doesn't work on everyone."

Sasuke ignored him and flopped down onto his bed. He was absolutely exhausted.

Naruto looked at him in concern.

"Are you sure you're alright?"

"I'm fine."

"Do you need anything? Food? Clothes?"

"Dobe, I'm fine. "

Naruto stood over him and smiled softly.

"Ok then, call if you need anything."

He may be an idiot...but it's rather nice having someone here.

ooooooooooooooooooooooo

Naruto woke up to someone yelling in his ear.

"Aieeee!"

"Fucking girly man."

"What time is it?" Naruto asked groggily.

He looked at the futon which looked so inviting. He snuggled back up into it and smiled contently.

That is until a pillow made contact with his head.

"Mmghh, lee' me 'lone..."

"Idiot, it's 9 in the morning. Wake up and make some fucking breakfast."

Naruto, although reluctantly, complied and dragged himself out of the comfort of his futon.

He's lucky he's injured...fucking bastard.

He walked into the kitchen and rummaged through the refridgerator.

Hm...that's odd.

He gave up and tried in the cabinets.

No. Such. Luck.

His stomach made itself known by letting out a loud growl.

I know baby, I know...

He walked back into the bedroom.

"Uh, Sasuke? We have no food."

"What the fuck do you mean we don't have any?"

"I mean, that we have no fucking food!"

Sasuke groaned. Fuck, they had forgotten to go shopping.

Naruto wanted to cry. His stomach was already crying in misery.

Oh woe is me...

The door slammed open and Suigetsu appeared.

Sasuke and Naruto turned sharply at the sound and quickly noticed that he was carrying grocery bags.

Naruto cheered and got up to hug Suigetsu for being such a life saver. Sasuke grabbed the bread Suigetsu had brought while Naruto went for the fruit.

They were like animals, tearing into the food, and chewing loudly.

Suigetsu watched, amazed and disgusted (but not by Naruto, cause Naruto couldn't look bad doing anything of course).

"...I could bring you guys food now and then...?"

"Suigetsu! You are my angel!" Naruto launched himself again at Suigetsu and Suigetsu blushed, embarassed but pleased by the attention.

Sasuke just rolled him eyes at the pair of idiots he had the misfortune of knowing.

oooooooooooo

"Dobe. We have a serious problem," began Sasuke as he sat down on his bed. The painkillers he had gotten from the hospital were wearing off and his injury was starting to make itself known judging by the dull throbbing in his shoulder.

Naruto looked at Sasuke's serious face and knew that they were no joking around at a time like this. He sat down on the floor, right in front of Sasuke and looked up at him solemly, waiting for him to continue.

Sasuke sighed, "Living expenses have doubled now that you live here and because I'm injured I can't work. Which means there is no money and rent is due soon."

The blond realized how serious this subject was and became a little nervous. What were they going to do without any money? And he couldn't leave Sasuke, especially now that he was injured. That would just be...wrong.

"So what are we going to do?"

"I'm not going to do anything. You, on the other hand, will have to come up with the money. There are many ways for you to earn money," Sasuke leered at Naruto.

"Are you suggesting...?"

"I don't care what you do, but don't expect me to let you live here for free."

"Did you work a lot? Y'know, before you got injured?"

"I worked days and nights."

"Wow, you're so amazing," Naruto looked up at Sasuke in awe, "when did you ever find the time to sleep?"

"To overwork oneself is the best way to rid the mind of unwanted thoughts."

Naruto was quite puzzled.

"Why don't you just go home?" Naruto was really starting to wonder about Sasuke. He knew absolutely nothing about him but he felt the insatiable curiousity to know everything about him.

Sasuke looked at Naruto, "There's nothing left for me back home."

Naruto's eyes widened. And then he let a sad smile grace his face as his eyes found themselves fixed on the floor.

"You're just like me then."

Sasuke studied Naruto's face carefully and saw his eyes beginning to glaze over with memories.

What are you running from Naruto?

The raven stood up and took off his shirt. He threw it and it landed somewhere in the room. He then unbuckled his pants and prepared to take them off.

Naruto, finally realizing that he was in the room with a now stripping young man started to hyperventilate.

"TEME! What the fuck do you think you're doing?"

"I can't hold it in anymore Naruto. It's a basic need, you understand? We're both guys so there's nothing to be embarrased about."

There was no other word for it. Naruto was gonna have a panic attack at this rate.

"I knew you wanted to use my body! You dirty, no good bastard!"

"What are you complaining about? It's not even a difficult thing to do," and to emphasize his point he grabbed Naruto's hips and pinned him to the wall. His hands moved up to grip his shirt and he started to pull it up.

"All I want...is to use your hands."

Naruto gulped and closed his eyes, preparing for the worst.

"So help me get washed up."

Rapist, rapist, rapist, wait, what?

"I can't take a bath if I can't use both of my hands. "

Naruto blinked. And blinked again. He almost wanted to smack himself for misunderstanding (not that it was his fault, if the bastard had just asked him outright then it would've been avoided dammit). He was so relieved that he wasn't going to have to beat up Sasuke. Because he was ready to knee him in the place where the sun don't shine. Good thing he hadn't because then that would've been one hell of an awkward situation.

Ten minutes later Naruto was sitting on a chair while Sasuke was in the tub. He had poured shampoo over his hands and was now lathering it into Sasuke's fine hair. Hey, it was the least he could do. Though, now that he thought about it, Naruto should be rewarded for gracing Sasuke's presense with his beauty. Hmph.

Maybe later...when he isn't injured...

ooooooooooooooo

Sasuke was out on the terrance. He was so so bored. Now that he was forbidden from working until he recovered and with Naruto at work, he had absolutely nothing to do. He didn't realize until now how much Naruto took up his time. With Naruto around, Sasuke could forget about the loneliness. But when Naruto left, taking his brightness with him, the room suddenly became too dull and lifeless.

Fucking blonds and their fucking bright personalities. I don't even like the fucking sun. Fucking dammit, shit, fuckfuckfuck.

His head turned as he heard the door from the terrance slam close. He immediately spotted the white hair.

Fucking Suigetsu and his fucking white hair. Fucking fucking fucking. Stupid fucking sharp teeth that remind me of sharks. I don't even fucking like fish.

Suigetsu walked up to Sasuke with a sharp smile on his face and a grocery bag in one hand.

"Where's Naruto?"

Sasuke looked at him warily.

Fucking blond. Fucking fishcake, shit dammit. Fucking sharks.

"He's at work."

"Man. So I came for nothing?"

"Fucking moron."

He leaned on the wall and narrowed his eyes at Suigetsu. He had told him this yesterday but he should probably remind him again in case his mind had a mental relapse sometime overnight.

"I know you probably already know this but...he's a guy. I even checked."

Suigetsu started to bawl like a baby "Stop it! It's all lies!"

"Pull yourself together. What the fuck are you going to do with feelings for a guy?"

The white haired man just sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. He looked so lost that Sasuke almost felt a twinge of sympathy. Almost. Because Sasuke doesn't do the whole 'sympathy' shit.

"I'm not going to do anything. This is my first time feeling like this for a guy! I just can't believe it...he's sort of beautiful."

"Fucking idiot. He's a guy, don't be blinded by 'love'".

Sasuke was starting to grow tired of this conversation, "Besides, you don't know what he's really like."

Sasuke thought back to Naruto's attempts at cooking and how Naruto helped him bathe.

"He's charming. And surpisingly obedient. He's cheerful and bright..."

"But maybe...he might actually be an ok kind of guy..." Sasuke trailed off in his thoughts. No, he thought, he might actually be a decent guy.

Suigetsu looked at Sasuke in surprise and yelled "Hey! Don't you dare go falling love with him!"

Sasuke snorted and rolled his eyes, "Never going to happen. Not even in a million years. I'm not such a loney fucker that I would end up falling in love with that idiot."

No, it was impossible for Sasuke to fall for Naruto. He was a guy and his personality was too loud and bright for him. There was absolutely no way that he would fall in love with such a dobe.

Suigetsu gave a relieved sigh.

They both walked back into his apartment and Suigetsu got ready to leave.

"Hey - "

Ding dong

That was weird. He wasn't expecting anybody, and the person who he was waiting for didn't ring the doorbell, perhaps because the stolen key had something to do with that.

Sasuke watched as Suigetsu opened the door. Three men were carrying packages of different sizes and were bringing them into Sasuke's apartment one by one.

"We have a delivery for Naruto Uzumaki here."

ooooooooooooooo

Sasuke sat on his chair in the kitchen as he waited for Naruto's arrival. Suigetsu had left hours ago and really, it was for the best. Sasuke was in a rage and if given the chance he would attack anybody near him.

Fucking blond...can't trust him for shit.

He tenses as he heard the doorknob jiggle and in walked the current blond plaguing his thoughts.

"Start explaining, what is all this?" Sasuke didn't have time for fucking excuses nor for idiotic half-truths.

Naruto glanced at the boxes and smiled.

"Wow, so they're finally here?"

"Where did you get the money?" Sasuke then pulled out a blue credit card, "Was it this?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes as Naruto flushed.

"I can't believe you went through my stuff!"

"The name on the back...it's not your name is it?" Sasuke was tired of the continous stalling. He wanted answers, now.

The guilty flush on Naruto's face said everything he needed to know.

"You stole it, didn't you? I keep forgetting that you're really a thief. "

Sasuke was disappointed. He had really thought that Naruto would stop stealing.

"Get all this shit out of here and while I'm at it, I want you the fuck out of my apartment. People who spend money they steal are fucking disgusting. "

Naruto winced, a flash of shame passed through his eyes.

"It's not like that! That guy...was the guy I used to live with. You remember him, right? Do you know how it feels for someone you hate to feel you up? And you can't fight them off because they're heavier! And you can't report them because it would only get worse...isn't it better that I sought for compensation this way?"

Naruto wanted Sasuke to understand. He needed him to understand. Years of constant harassment from guys who he hated had taught him that revenge was the only way for him to feel better. His dignity was already shattered but he was holding on to his pride the only way he knew how.

"Do you have no pride? Nothing in this world is free. If you want money then you better be prepared to beg for it or even sell your body," Sasuke hissed vehemently.

Naruto clenched his teeth and his fists. He couldn't hold it in anymore. He had tried his best. He had been on his very best behavior but why was that no good for the raven haired young man? He was surprised when he felt tears fall from his eyes. He hadn't cried in so long.

"Fucking bastard. What makes you so much better than me? I tried so fucking hard to keep things peaceful between us but what's so fucking different between you and me? You have nowhere to go, just like me."

Sasuke's rage got the best of him. In one swift move, he punched Naruto in his face. He didn't even see it coming. Naruto staggered back from the force of the hit and wiped the blood off his split lip. He glared at Sasuke with such anger and loathing that Sasuke was surprised. He then turned on his heel and ran out.

Sasuke fell back onto his chair and ran his fingers through his hair.

Fuckfuckfuckfuck.

I did nothing wrong...everything I said was right.

But then why the fuck do I feel so bad?

He thought back to Naruto's unexpected tears.

Fuck. I think I hurt him.

Fuckfuckfuckfuck.

He put his head in his hands, everything all at once, was just too damn much. He didn't even know what the fuck just happened.

He heard the door rattle and he straightened as Naruto came into view. Naruto stormed up to him and shoved a bag full of beer in his face.

"I was wrong. Here, a make-up present." Naruto's face was flushed but his eyes were determined and he had a small smile on his face.

Sasuke let out a surprised chuckle. This guy was just so different.

ooooooooooooo

They sat on the floor, in Sasuke's room and they had empty bottle beers already littering the once pristine floor.

"So I was thinking..." began Naruto, "and I'll return all the things. And I won't cause any problems between us anymore so don't kick me out. All I've got is thick skin and my attitude but when I hear mean things, my mind gets messed up..."

Naruto gaze fell to the floor and he sighed.

Sasuke rolled his eyes and reached over the ruffle Naruto's blond locks.

Naruto tore his gaze away from the floor and brought it up to Sasuke and smirked.

"What? Is this your way of comforting me?"

"Idiot."

The blond just laughed under his breath and leaned his head onto Sasuke's shoulder and closed his eyes.

Sasuke looked down at Naruto,"Look, if you're being honest then I'll believe you."

Naruto smiled and opened his eyes. He looked up at Sasuke and brought his face closer to him. His eyes were glazed and Sasuke quickly realized that Naruto was drunk. No surprise there, the idiot couldn't hold his liquor to save his life. Sasuke brought up a hand to caress a flushed cheek. His eyes took in the bright blue eyes and the red whiskered cheeks. Up close, Naruto was even more alluring.

Sasuke never got drunk. Ever. Not even when his brother had dared him to drink enough liquor to send him to a hospital for alcohol poisoning. So, safe to say that while Naruto may be drunk Sasuke was most definitely not. If he truly wanted to, he could push Naruto away but at the same time Sasuke was bringing Naruto in closer. He smelled the familiar sweet musk that belonged soley to Naruto. His lips brushed Naruto's and something in Sasuke came alive.

He grabbed Naruto's head with both hands and brought his lips down harshly upon Naruto's.

And that something in Sasuke roared.

oooooooooooooo

A/N: lol, bad Sasuke. Making out with someone who's drunk.
