Hey there! So, I apologize for the delay in this chapter. And now for the shortness. I've been terribly busy. But I will try to get this one done, at least before summer's up. And if not, then hopefully I can get it done not too far into the fall. Hope you guys still like it!

I Write Sins Not Tragedies

Chapter 4

Naruto fiddled with his tie, his annoyance growing with every passing moment. It wasn't as though he'd forgotten how to tie it, or maybe he had; either way it was being a nuisance. Sasuke watched from the bed, his smirk developing into audible chuckled with the moron's increased anger.

"Do you want some help with that?" The raven rose from the bed, making his way over to his recently reclaimed blonde.

"I can usually do it myself..." Naruto pouted while porcelain arms wrapped around him. He couldn't help but smile. It was obvious, everyone will probably want to smack him upside the head when they find out about Sasuke. But all he'd have to do was clear it all up, right?

Naruto had spent the remainder of the morning thinking about it all. The woman who tore them apart, the root of evil in his life. Aside from her though, he wondered if he forgave Sasuke too soon. He couldn't have possibly been lying to him? There was such a vulnerability, such compassion, it was the Sasuke he had fallen head over heels in love for. It was the man that reminded him every day that he was special. Sasuke was the only person he could ever see himself spending the remainder of his life with. No one else.

"And there you are," Sasuke planted a kiss on Naruto's cheek, his arms moving to wrap the other man around his waist. Naruto turned to face his rekindled past and connected their lips. It wasn't rushed, a spark of emotion, but rather a slow and lingering moment. Naruto could feel the emotions being surged through the two. It was two souls melding into one, two hearts beating together. There was a soft warmth radiating off of their bodies.

"I love you," Sasuke whispered when they pulled apart.

"I love you, too."

"I love how adorable you two are," the third voice cut through the moment, both men throwing their guard up immediately. The intruder's laugh danced through the apartment.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Sasuke roared, his body instinctively setting itself in front of Naruto.

"Visiting my husband of course. Where's my kiss Sasuke-kun?" Sakura advanced towards the two men, her gaze lingering softly on Sasuke yet still finding time to shoot daggers at Naruto.

"Woman, when are you going to understand that I am GAY. And hell, even if I was straight I wouldn't be caught dead with you," Sasuke shot at her. Green eyes lowered and her lips curved.

"I still can't believe you left me for...that." She reached to put her hand on Sasuke's shoulder but he slapped her away brutally.

"I have a fucking restraining order on you. Get out before I call the cops."

Naruto watched quietly as they had a war. The very girl he had recently come to despise was standing in front of them. She had somehow made it into his apartment unnoticed. And now she was trying to screw with Sasuke.

"Why are you here?" The blonde's voice just barely reached the ears of the bickering pair.

"Naruto..." Sasuke looked over at his blonde.

"Why? I want my Sasuke back." It stung when she used the word my. "I had him first." The pink-haired bitch advanced to Naruto this time, her eyes staring him down.

"He doesn't love you." Blue eyes began to burn with determination. He just got the love of his life back, nothing was going to ruin that. Nothing.

"I don't care. I claimed him." She poked his chest with her forefinger. "So tell me blondie, what are you going to do now?"

Before anyone could fathom what was going on, as though the moment wasn't confusing enough as it is, Sakura was on the ground screaming. Naruto had punched her in the gut.

"You little cunt." She cursed between shallow breaths. Naruto stared at his fists, unable to comprehend what he'd done. He had panicked, every nerve in his body only focused on doing whatever it took to rid them of this pest.

"Naruto." Sasuke whispered, the look glazing over in his blonde's eyes striking worry in his heart. Naruto didn't answer him. Walking over he placed his hands on the man's shoulders. Their eyes met, but only one acknowledged the other. Naruto was in a daze, his head spinning in a whirlwind.

"You're going to regret this," Sakura screamed as she got up, running out the front door clutching her stomach. Sasuke barely even comprehended her actions. His mind was fixated on the now shaking Naruto. The blonde's knees were getting weak, threatening to collapse.

"I'm s-s-sorry," Naruto apologized, making his way to the bed. Sasuke laughed, trying to lighten the mood.

"Why are you apologizing? That bitch had it coming, you've done nothing wrong Naruto." He planted a kiss on his blonde's forehead and wrapped him arms around his body. "It's okay."

"She's coming back..." Naruto muttered. He knew she wasn't the type to just let bygones be bygones. She was going to come back, and she was going to do something terrible.

"It's okay now..." Sasuke knew he was right, he knew she'd be back. What worried him most wasn't just her though, because if she knew where he was...then they knew as well. "Why don't we head out, we can get something to eat if you'd like."

Naruto didn't move for a moment longer, his eyes fixed on his upturned palms. He was still in shock. Astonishment ran through his body as comprehension tried to set in. The look of her face, the pain contorting. She deserved it. But he felt horrid.

"Come on Naruto." Sasuke stood up, helping his blonde up as well. Those blue eyes were still glazed, fixated on the emptiness and not the reality. Sasuke sighed and they began to walk out the door together.
