Sorry this is so late! I was working on a different story that took my life and soul from me!
Read character descriptions. Make sure you have reviewed. Hope you all aren't planning my death, and enjoy. Remember, when I am typing, I am not the one controlling what I type. Plenty of times I am amazed by what I have written, and I don't know whether that's good or bad. And I apologize if you have never seen the movie Jurassic Park. Thanks to my imooto for the idea of this beginning, instead of me making the last ending a joke. We'll see how this works out. Imooto is gothicinsanity64. One… Two… Three… Action!
"No Naruto!" Sasuke tried to stop him a bit too late and Naruto was pelted by kunai. Sasuke dared to take another look a few minutes later. Naruto lay there, covered in blood and not breathing. Sasuke knelt down by the motionless form.
"Why? Naruto, no…" And for the first time in a long time, he cried.
Sasuke didn't move, he couldn't, and frankly, he did want to.
"It's a dream. I fell asleep and it's all a dream. Everything is, probably even when I kissed him." He didn't even try to stop crying or wipe away his tears, just let them fall freely down his face. He had pulled the kunai out of Naruto and hugged him close, desperately hoping this was a dream. After trying to wake himself up, he realized that this was indeed reality. He sat there stunned, his vision turning red.
"Red? Wait, what?!" He blinked, staring at Naruto. He was covered in a red chakra.
"Rumors… Kyuubi?! Kyuubi is saving him?! Please, let that be the case!" Sasuke let go of Naruto when the chakra hit his arms, it was strangely cool. Sasuke sat back and watched as the chakra focused on all of Naruto's wounds, eventually ending on his chest. He stared as Naruto slowly started to breath again. The chakra lingered there even when Naruto slowly opened his eyes and looked at Sasuke.
"Sasuke? What happened? What's wrong?" Naruto sat up and looked down at the chakra still slightly covering his body. His eyes widened in shock and a bit of fear as he glanced back at Sasuke. Sasuke went up to him and hugged him anyway. He felt Naruto stiffen before slowly relaxing and trembling.
"Calm down Naruto."
"But, you saw-!"
"I saw you die. And then I saw you be revived." Naruto pulled away from him and looked into his eyes.
"I died?" Sasuke pointed to the closet.
"I don't allow anyone in there, so I set a trap there, you walked right into it and was pelted by kunai, killing you." His eyes looked haunted, but as he kept talking, Naruto saw them turn happier, "You weren't breathing or moving, there was nothing I could do. Then you were covered in red chakra and healed. Kyuubi's chakra?" Naruto nodded.
"You don't care? You don't, hate me?"
"Why would I hate you Naruto?" Sasuke kissed him again, lightly this time. Naruto smiled and jumped on him, hugging him tightly. It took a moment for Sasuke to realize he was crying.
"Naruto?! What's wrong?!"
"Nothing." He sighed into Sasuke's shirt, "I'm happy." Sasuke smiled.
"Dobe."
"Teme." They stayed like that for a while before Sasuke got up and showed Naruto the closet that does have the movies.
"Are there any other killer closets I should be aware of?"
"Only if you insist on opening every door in the house." Naruto paled and proceeded to sort through the movies, eventually emerging with one gripped in his hands.
"You have a lot of movies!" Naruto called out when he got into the living room. Sasuke shrugged.
"What one did you pick out?" Naruto showed him with a delighted grin on his face. Sasuke groaned.
"Jurassic Park? You chose this movie?"
"Yep, dattebayo!" Sasuke shook his head.
"First date and we're watching Jurassic Park. Wait, doesn't he get scared?"
"Naruto? Won't you get scared?"
"Eh?! No I won't! You're so mean!" He pouted and scooted away from Sasuke. Sasuke mentally slapped himself.
"I wasn't trying to be mean." Naruto didn't answer him so Sasuke went and sat by him. He kissed his cheek, "Put the movie in. You want a drink?" Naruto was still pouting, but nodded anyway, muttering out something that sounded like orange soda. Sasuke went into the kitchen and found that he actually did have orange soda. Thinking about it, he remembered that the last time Kell had come over, she had brought some with her. He shrugged and took the entire box into the living room. Naruto had put the movie in and was cuddled on the couch, watching the previews. Sasuke handed him a soda and set the box on the table before sitting next to him. Naruto smiled and cuddled into him. Sasuke sighed and hit the light switch, which was conveniently located near the couch, as the movie started. As they neared the part in the movie where the raptor jumps out at the girl, Sasuke wanted to run off. Naruto's hold on his arm was killing him, and he didn't know what would happen when Naruto saw that. He braced himself.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Naruto screamed and jumped, cutting off any circulation to Sasuke's arm.
"RUN!!!!" Sasuke looked over and saw Naruto had tears in his wide eyes and was shaking. He tried to pry his arm away, but found it impossible. Any more of this and his arm would be ripped off. Naruto eventually calmed down a bit, loosening his grip on Sasuke. All too soon, it was where those kids were in the kitchen and being hunted by the raptors. Sasuke lost his arm again. Naruto screamed every time something jumped up and by the end of the movie, he was hiding behind Sasuke. Sasuke didn't move for fear of scaring the blond and having his arm completely ripped off. As it was now, Naruto was still holding it and it was twisted behind Sasuke's back. Sasuke slowly moved and looked at Naruto.
"It's over Naruto."
"What happened?"
"They got off the island."
"Really?"
"Yes. Can you please let go of my arm?" Naruto instantly released his grip.
"Sorry!" Sasuke cradled the arm.
"It's fine."
"Are you sure? I know, we should get it checked out by Baa-chan! She'll make it better, dattebayo!"
"Yes, and while we're there, we'll tell her that the reason we're there is because you got scared watching Jurassic Park."
"Maybe we could just wait and see if it gets better by morning?"
"Agreed."
Naruto got up and looked outside, "Ano, it's dark out. What time is it?"
"About 11:30."
"What?! I have to get home!" Naruto started to leave, almost tripping over the doorway.
"Naruto? What are you doing?" Sasuke reentered the living room from putting the soda away.
"Leaving!"
"What?!"
"I have to get home Sasuke! It's late!"
"Oh. You could stay here."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Yay! Thanks Sasuke!" Naruto glomped him, hugging him tightly and smiling up at him. It was all around adorable. Sasuke hugged him back and kissed his nose, actually smiling.
"Ah! Sasuke! You smiled!" He looked so happy.
"Come on." Naruto nodded and walked behind Sasuke to a room.
"Am I sleeping here?"
"Yes. Just a minute, I'll get the bed made up."
"I can help, dattebayo!" Naruto padded happily along behind Sasuke and they brought some blankets and a pillow back. Naruto got the bed made how he wanted it and went to change. Sasuke went back to his own room and changed before going back to make sure that Naruto was okay. (Note: Sasuke lent Naruto some clothes to sleep in.) Naruto was sitting on the bed, but he jumped up when Sasuke entered. He hugged him and sat back down.
"Goodnight Sasuke!"
"Night." Sasuke turned off all the lights in the house and made sure everything was locked up before going to bed himself. He fell asleep quickly.
Sasuke was woken up by a small scream.
"What the hell?!" He heard someone come into his room and jump onto his bed. Sasuke relaxed when he realized it was Naruto.
"What happened?"
"Nothing."
"Naruto."
"I was lonely?"
"Bad dream?" He heard Naruto move around before he heard a muffled, "Yes." Sasuke sighed and moved over, lifting up the covers.
"Get in."
"What?"
"It helps with bad dreams. It's harder to get them when someone is with you." Naruto hesitated before crawling under the covers and snuggling into Sasuke's side.
"Thanks Sasuke."
"Go to sleep Naruto. Goodnight."
"Yeah, night." They drifted back to sleep.
When Sasuke woke up in the morning, he looked around for Naruto. He wasn't there.
"Naruto?" He got up and headed towards the kitchen. He smelled something cooking and when he went in, he found Naruto standing in front of the oven, watching the timer.
"What are you doing?" Naruto jumped.
"Sasuke! You're awake! I'm making breakfast of course! Ano, I thought that since you let me stay over, I could at least make breakfast. You're not mad, are you?" Sasuke blinked.
"No. What is it?"
"You'll have to wait and see, dattebayo!" Sasuke glared at the blond and sat down.
"How can he be so happy this early?!" (Lol, Sasuke isn't a morning person) The timer went off and Naruto took whatever it was out of the oven. He set Sasuke's plate in front of him and sat down with his own plate. Naruto instantly dug in while Sasuke poked at it, trying to figure out what it was.
"It's French toast Sasuke, and I didn't poison it. It is safe to eat." He looked up to see the blond frowning at his plate, a mixture between anger and sadness on his face. Sasuke blinked and cut off a bite, popping it into his mouth.
"It's… good." He couldn't keep the surprise out of his voice and Naruto glared at him.
"I'm not that stupid teme. I do know how to cook." He continued to eat. Sasuke sighed internally and finished his plate. He was almost done when Naruto stood to clean his plate. Sasuke just finished his plate before following the blond into the kitchen.
"I'll do it."
"I'm fine. Hey, after this, I need to go back to my apartment, and then we should check on Risa. She's probably going crazy!"
"Hn."
"Teme."
"Dobe." Naruto glared at him and stomped upstairs to change back into his own clothes. Sasuke slammed his head onto the counter.
"Damn. Being socially inept makes it hard to have any type of relationship." He sighed and went to change. When he re-emerged, Naruto had already gone back to his apartment. Sasuke sighed and headed there. Hoping to meet up with him, he traveled by rooftop. He landed outside Naruto's apartment building and went up to his door. He was about to just open it and walk in when he noticed the seals there. He knocked instead and waited for the door to open. When it didn't, he knocked again. There was still no answer, so he pounded on the door.
"Naruto! Open the door!" The door was quickly opened and Sasuke was yanked inside before it was quickly closed and locked again. He landed on the floor. Naruto walked past him back into his room, completely ignoring the raven. Sasuke glared at the retreating back before sighing and getting up to explore the small apartment. He was looking through the kitchen, amazed at how much of the food was expired and the amount of ramen when Naruto grabbed him and dragged him back to the living room, dumping him on the couch and glaring at him.
"What are you doing here?! And why were you going through my stuff?!"
"You do realize most of your food has expired, right?"
"So? I have to eat something."
"Then go buy something else."
"I'm not made of money teme. Besides, I have ramen, dattebayo!"
"You can't live solely off ramen!"
"Can too!"
"You can't seriously like ramen enough to only eat it and nothing else."
"Even if I didn't it wouldn't matter! I can't get anything else!" Sasuke paused.
"What do you mean?" Naruto sighed and sat next to him, closing his eyes.
"People don't like me Sasuke, they purposely make my life difficult." He opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. He looked tired.
"How?"
"It's not as bad anymore, but the store owners and my landlord still try to make my life hell. With the exception of Ichiraku's, store owners make me have to pay at least double the price no matter what, and the landlord would do the same thing if I as the one paying for the apartment. Instead, he keeps the water cold, and there are plenty of times when I won't get electricity."
"Why don't you complain?"
"What good would that do? They would deny it, and get back at me somehow. Besides, I'm doing fine despite their efforts."
"You said it's not as bad now. What happened before?" Naruto's eyes became distant before he shook his head and smiled sadly at Sasuke.
"It doesn't matter anymore. Come on, let's go see everyone!" Sasuke watched the blond grin and head out the door, waving at him to hurry up.
"How can he be so happy all the time?" He shook his head and followed Naruto outside, heading towards the hospital to visit everyone.
Okay! I got it done! I am so sorry for the wait! This is the last chapter! The next one is the epilogue! Sorry for the angst, but Sasuke needed to know for the relationship to really work. Thanks for keeping with this story!
