::Chapter Five::

::Something I Said::

::Sasuke's POV::

I ran back out into the chaos in the main room of the party and quickly found my way back to my friends. I noticed that Kiba, Sakura, and Naruto were missing from the scene.

"Hinata! Where's Naruto? Did he leave?!" I asked in a panic.

She nodded, looking concerned, "Yeah. He left with Kiba and Sakura just now..." she replied. "Sasuke... he was crying his heart out... what happened?"

"Karin... she's crossed the line..." I said, gritting my teeth. "Let's go Hinata. I have to find Naruto right now, and fix this whole mess."

"Alright." She replied, pulling her cell phone out of her purse. "I'll call Sakura." she added, looking at Gaara, "Could you ride home with Temari and Shika?"

He nodded, "I understand. Go find Naruto."

Hinata dialed Sakura's number as we walked out the door. We got onto the sidewalk as Sakura picked up. I listened carefully to Hinata talk to her.

"Sakura?.... Is Naruto with you?...... He is?!.... Sasuke's really worried about him, he-.... What do you mean?.... What?..... It was a mistake! Karin!-"

Suddenly Hinata pulled her phone away from her ear. "She hung up on me... But, they're all at Sakura's house."

"I get why he's so upset. What he saw..." I lost my words as tears filled my eyes, blurring my vision.

Hinata put her hand on my shoulder, "Sasuke, we'll fix this. Try not to worry. You know Naruto-kun loves you."

Four, seemingly endless, blocks later we arrived at Sakura's house. I sprinted up the stairs, and knocked on the door. I didn't have the patience to ring the doorbell.

Kiba opened the door, and instantly glared at me, "Naruto doesn't want to see you."

"W-what?" I muttered, choking on my tears.

"You heard me, Sasuke." Kiba replied, bitterly. "You know... if you didn't want to be with him anymore, you could have said so, instead of cheating on him with a whore like Karin."

"C-cheating? Kiba I!-" he cut me off.

"I don't want to hear you petty excuses, Sasuke! What's done is done, and you broke that boys heart!" Kiba yelled, pointing back inside the house. He had always had a bad temper. He only lost it when his friends got hurt... and Naruto was one of his closest, best friends. He had the right to be angry with me...

More tears flooded from my eyes as I heard Naruto crying to Sakura inside. I closed my eyes tightly to stop them. "Fine... just... just tell him that I love him, please Kiba..." I clentched my fists and turned away to walk back down the stairs where Hinata was waiting.

I watched her give Kiba a disapproving look as I passed her. He slammed the door and locked it.

"Hinata, let's go home." I told her, as she caught up with me. I cried nearly all night. I cried so much that I made myself sick to my stomach. Hinata stayed by my side all night to help.

The next morning I woke up with a severe headache around 10:00. I was just about to go to the bathroom to take a couple Tylenol when I heard a commotion downstairs, I quickly picked up Naruto's voice.

"Naruto... he's back!" I thought happily, descending the stairs, nearly falling down them.

"Naruto!" I exclaimed bounding into the living room. I froze instantly.

Naruto was with Sakura, and he had a duffel bag in his hands, Sakura held his backpack. His beautiful blue eyes had completely lost their sparkle. They were dull and full of sadness. It looked like he had been crying all night as well... in fact, he probably did. To my disappointment, he turned away from me and walked out of the open door.

I reached out my arm to him, "Naruto, where?-"

"He's going to be staying with me for the time being." Sakura told me.

"But! It was a mistake! I-" I tried to protest. I looked at Hinata for support, but she just shook her head.

Sakura sighed, "Sasuke... I believe you. I truly do. But Naruto... he can't trust you right now. He needs time, so..." she shifted her weight uncomfortably and glanced up at me, "Sasuke... as of right now, you and Naruto aren't together anymore."

I felt like I couldn't breathe. "What?... what are you saying? I don't understand."

Sakura turned her back to me, "I'm sorry, Sasuke, but if taking this break is what Naruto wants, then I can't help you out..."

I ran in front of her, and grabbed her arms, shaking her lightly, "Sakura, please! Can I please go talk to him?!" I pleaded, desperately.

She closed her eyes, "No..." she said, "Be patient, Sasuke... I can tell that Naruto love you with all of his heart. If you wait for him, he'll come back to you." she walked out the door and closed it behind her.

I fell to my knees, feeling completely helpless. I buried my face in my hands and let out a loud scream.

Hinata came to my side, and kneeled down next to me, "Sasuke-san..."

"I told myself that I'd never let anything hurt him again! Damn it all!" I yelled, "I let him down! I hurt him.... in the worst way I could ever possibly hurt him..." I felt like I was having a mental breakdown. I wanted so badly to run out the door after him and beg him for forgiveness.

Then my thoughts went to Karin. This was all her fault! I was going to confront her on Monday... She would pay for what she had done.

::Monday morning::

Hinata and Shikamaru had to hold me back from going to slap Karin in the face. It was against my morals to hit a girl, but Karin dissevered it...

"Think about this rationally, Uchiha!" Shika told me, as I fought against his grip. "If you go over there and hit her, you'll get suspended from school. Do you really want to throw your high school diploma away to beat up some girl? It's so troublesome!"

"Fine!" I said, pulling myself away from them. "But you can't stop me from going to talk to her!" I stomped over to her, with nothing but rage filling my body. "KARIN!" I yelled at her.

She turned her head in my direction, "Ah! Sasuke! How are yo-"

I pushed her hard against the wall, cutting her off, "You whore!" I almost slapped her right then and there.

She put up her hands in front of her face in defense, "Suke! What's wrong with you?!"

"You took my LIFE away!" I shouted, clenching my fists until my knuckles turned white. "I lost Naruto because you decided to come onto me! Your just a fucking whore! That's all you'll ever be!" I raised my fist to her, and was just about to strike her when...

"Uchiha Sasuke!"

I turned around quickly. Kakashi sensei was standing there with his arms crossed, "Come with me, please." he looked at Karin, "You too."

We followed him silently to the principle's office.

Kakashi stopped at the door, "Principle Tsunade will see you inside." he said, before walking away.

We entered the office and found Hinata stading next to her desk.

The principle turned around in her seat and faced us. "Take a seat. The both of you." she told us.

Karin and I sat down. I sat on the edge of my seat, and looked at Hinata. I knew she was the one who reported this...

Principle Tsunade cleared her throat, "Uchiha Sasuke... it has been brought to my concern by your cousin that you nearly started a fight with this girl." she motioned to Karin. "Hinata has told me that you got so upset that you almost hit her. Is this true?"

I nodded without making eye contact with her. "Yes..."

"Well..." she sighed. "It looks like I'm going to have to give you a week's after school detention."

"Principle Tsunade, if I may..." Karin spoke up.

"Go on..." she replied.

"Sasuke has done nothing wrong. This is all my fault. I did something that I shouldn't have and it made Sasuke angry with me. So... this is my fault. I take the blame for this. Please... punish me instead." Karin explained.

Tsunade looked just as shocked as I felt. I couldn't believe that Karin was doing this. I was just about to say something when Tsunade spoke.

"Alright. I'll let Sasuke off this time." she looked at me, "This kind of behavior is so unbelievable coming from such a great student like yourself. So don't do anything reckless like this again. You may go..."

I stood up and bowed, "Thank you. And I won't..."

After that, Hinata and I left. I couldn't believe that I acted that way... Usually I wasn't one to lose my temper like that. I hated to admit it, but I was no better than Kai...

The whole day Naruto didn't take one look at me. It made me feel even worse than I already felt. I wanted to talk to him badly. In fact, I tried to all day, but Sakura kept me from doing so. It was like that the entire week. I felt like I was going crazy... I just needed a moment alone with Naruto. Just one short moment... I wanted to hold him and apologize for what had happened...

Friday was when me and Naruto made contact for the first time that week. I was walking blindly down the hallway, when I slammed into something. I glanced up in a daze.

"Na-naruto..." I whispered, starring at him in front of me.

He looked at me as if I were a stranger. I waited for him to reply, but he didn't say a word. Instead he starred at me, expressionless.

"Naruto... I..." I reached out to touch his face, but another hand slapped mine away.

"Do you mind?" Came Sai's voice from beside Naruto. "He doesn't want to know you, Uchiha." Sai said coldly, as he led Naruto away.

After school I went directly home without waiting for Hinata. Sai's words kept echoing in my mind.

"He doesn't want to know you..."

"Doesn't want to know me, huh?..." I mumbled to myself, stepping into the bathroom.

I began fumbling around in the medicine cabinet. I didn't even know what I was looking for.

"He doesn't want to know me..." I repeated, grabbing a pair of scissors.

I sat on the floor and absentmindedly pressed the blade of the scissors to my forearm.

"He wants to forget me..." I said quietly, while tears escaped from my eyes. I pressed the scissors harder against my arm and moved them down, letting the blade break the skin. "He wants to forget us..."

I repeated the cutting action until my whole arm was bleeding terribly. I starred at the blood dripping off of my arm to the floor, and dropped the scissors in my hand. My arm had gone completely numb... I couldn't feel a thing. I began laughing hysterically, as my vision blurred.

A blurred figure ran into the bathroom, "SASUKE!! What have you done to yourself!?" the person called, kneeling at my side. "HINATA!! Call 911!! NOW!"

It wasn't Hinata? Funny... I thought it was...

I closed my eyes, and tried to hit the person. "Go...away.... I don't... I don't need... help..."

"Don't move, Sasuke! You'll make it worse!" The person told me. I felt them pick up my arm and wrapped something around it.

Then I heard another person enter the room. "I've called! An ambulance will be here soon, Nii-San!" It was Hinata.

"Nii-san?..." I muttered quietly. I tried to open my eyes to see who was holding my arm, but it was like my eyes were glued shut.

"Yes... I'm here Sasuke... Don't worry..."

I finally opened my eyes and smiled at the person. "Naruto... you came... I knew you would...."

Next thing I knew I heard sirens. Moments later more people came into the room, but I passed out.

Kiko- Poor Sasuke! He really IS having a mental breakdown! D: I'm sorry that this chapter is a bit short... I hope you enjoyed it though. :3
