Sakura heard that the Uchiha was awake and immediately stopped what she was doing and ran towards the hospital. She had cried her heart out when she woke up from being ditched, and again when she heard he was in the hospital.

She went into Ino's family shop on the way, picking up some flowers as fast as she could. She had gotten the same thing every day; roses. They were expensive, but they were pretty and supposedly a symbol of love. Ino just smiled at her and nodded when she asked.

She raced through the double doors of the medical building, making her way to the same floor she had always gone to. It was secluded but well protected, and every day she came here she had to go through a few tests to get into his room. Also, no weapons were allowed, so she had to either leave it all at home or give it to the ANBU stationed outside the door.

She hastily stripped herself of all metal. She even took off the heart necklace she had taken to wearing. She had somehow fit a picture of Sasuke in it, and she now abandoned it in the bucket the two ninja held out to her.

Once in the room she held out her flowers and closed her eyes. "Hi, Sasuke-kun! I brought you some flowers!"

She had a large smile on her face, hoping he would accept them. Even if he didn't, she would just replace the ones in the vase with the new ones. She waited and waited, but nothing happened, so she opened her eyes.

What she saw surprised her. Naruto was sitting behind Sasuke, who was sitting up in his bed. He was leaning forwards, whispering into his ear. Sasuke kept his eyes closed tight, and Naruto finally looked up at Sakura. "Come in."

Slowly she made her way over to the bed they were in. Naruto was sitting directly behind Sasuke, pressed up against his back. But Sasuke wasn't protesting or shoving the blond away. He still hadn't opened his eyes, and Sakura held out her flowers. "H-here…" she stuttered, still shocked at this sight.

Sasuke looked away, and she cringed. Did he really not want to see her? Did he and Naruto…oh no. She cried out a, "Please, no!" and backed away from them. Sasuke's head swiveled at her voice, but still he kept his sightless eyes shut.

Sakura closed her eyes and waved a hand around in front of her. "Please, please don't be true! You guys didn't! You….it's not true!" Naruto nodded solemnly and a frown showed up on his face. She wasn't supposed to take it like this.

"I'm sorry, Sakura-chan. But I'm afraid it's true."

Sakura's look of horror made Naruto reel back a bit. She blinked furiously, tears falling from her eyes. "Fine then! Enjoy each other's company! I hope you're happy together!" She rushed towards to door, but something stopped her.

"Sakura…we're not dating."

She turned around slowly, eyes still wet from tears. She sniffed. "You aren't, Sasuke-kun?"

He shook his head and snorted. "No. That would be gross. The dobe is..." he hesitated.

"I'll tell her, teme. Look, Sakura….I'm Sasuke's eyes."

The pink haired girl blinked. "What? Sasuke-kun has eyes. He also has the sharengan."

Sasuke winced and looked away. Sakura managed to mess it up even more by saying, "And why haven't you opened you're eyes since I've gotten in here? Do you not want to see me?"

Sasuke's head whipped up. "Shut up! Just shut up!"

Sakura took a step back and cringed. "But-"

Naruto shook his head and created two shadow clones. He sent them after Sakura, gently but steadily dragging her out of the room. Naruto started rubbing Sasuke's back, trying to calm him down.

Naruto's clones brought the bewildered girl to the Hokage Monument. She swung her feet back and forth overhanging the edge. She looked at the two Naruto's beside her. "So what's going on?" she asked quietly.

The Naruto to her right began, "If you don't interrupt I'll tell you everything. Okay?"

She nodded and settled down to listen.

The Naruto to the left started it off. "Okay. Well, as you know, Sasuke tried to leave. I followed him more closely and we fought in the Valley of the End. I was losing and…the Kyuubi came out. He did something to me and I looked like Itachi for a few seconds. Well, his eyes. Anyways, I did something to Sasuke and now he's blind."

Sakura cut in, "But then why-"

He glared at her. "That's what I'm getting to."

She flinched and the Naruto on the right hugged her. "Sorry."

She nodded shortly and he continued. "So now he see- knows me as his brother or something." He smiled, proud of his new status in Sasuke's heart. "And he only trusts me now, so I think I owe it to him to help him train and get stronger and be his eyes. It's only fair, since I rendered him blind…"

Sakura nodded, understanding the bond. She smiled sadly. "So that's why, when I thought you two were…dating..?"

The Naruto on her right answered her this time. "Yes. That's why he was annoyed. He wouldn't think of that, and neither would I. While I know that being Bisexual or gay isn't bad, we both view dating each other as incest now. We understand each others pain."

The next line broke her heart. "I would do anything for him."

Sakura shook her head. "Okay. I won't tell anyone. May I go now?"

Both Naruto's sighed. "Yes. Just…Remember, I'll always be here for you, too, Sakura-chan. You know that, right?"

She gave him a sad smile. "I know, Naruto. I know." And then she was gone.

Back in the room, Naruto felt his shadow clones' memories flooding into his head. He had explained it to his crush the best he could. He cringed as she left, the scene playing over and over in his mind. She just left. He shook his head and came back into the real world.

He had finally calmed Sasuke down, and he was asleep. Naruto stayed by his bed, making sure he didn't wake up. When he did wake up, he would help him get some food into him and try to think of a way to get him happy.

Naruto had never known the feeling of brotherhood, so it was all new to him. He was proud, though, that he had someone who trusted him with their life. He wouldn't let his adopted brother down; he would truly go to almost any measure for him.

A second after that thought, he turned around in his seat to see some guy in the window. He was wearing traveling sandals, even though he looked like a ninja. He was wearing a red and white outfit with a giant scroll on his back. His long hair was white, and he had red stripes of paint going down his face from his eyes.

"Hey kid."

YAY HE'S HERE XD SUPER PERVERTS, AWAY! –flies-
