The eerie silence finally began to sink into what seemed to be Naruto's consciousness. He looked up feverishly trying to keep the heavy lids that would separate him from itachi and himself. Almost as if choosing to be cast into a dark loneliness, or a world full of happiness to no end. "Come on Naruto stay awake!" He growled at himself. His eyelids fought to keep closed, but he wasn't about to give in. Not until he knew itachi was safe.

It was still motionless between the three of them. Every breath drawn from Naruto's mouth seemed to be shorter. The fear that ran through his chest was almost unbearable. Adrenaline ran through his veins as he looked from Itachi, to sasuke. He felt sick, what would happen next? Was the only question that ran through his mind. It started slowly, like a ripple affect in a pond. Sasuke etched forward first, Itachi immediately imitated his movement and stepped forward as well. They soon began moving cautiously and slowly, it was like watching a pool drain the water that remained in it, but slower, quieter, and above all, deadly. The only noise to be heard was a small ticking coming from a clock that could be found on the wall just opposite of naruto.

Naruto took note of this, pulling his attention away from the action going on in front of himself. The clock moved slowly, the movement of the hands mirrored what was going on perfectly. It's hands circling one another slowly, as if mimicking the two Uchihas. It wasn't until an abrupt stop in the mechanic clockwork of the whole situation that made naruto turn his attention back to the main problem.

"Don't make me do this sasuke," Itachi said softly while slowly closing his eyes. A grimace crept across Sasuke's face. "Tch!" he retorted, readying his stance. A lump formed in Naruto's throat. 'They're going to get hurt!...both of them!' Naruto thought. Sadness and remorse suddenly filled his chest ceasing his breathing for a long pause. "Sasuke…" he whispered under the tears that began to form under his troubled eyes. He heaved a long sigh as he looked up towards the two siblings. Why? Why did he feel this way! It infuriated him, yet it intrigued him at the same time. Why? It seemed like that was the only question that picked at Naruto's thoughts. 'Of course I don't want Itachi to be harmed by any means, but…' he trailed off in his own thoughts. 'Wasn't Sasuke the enemy here? Wasn't he the bastard who hurt me?' Naruto shook his head in confusion. He felt dizzy as the palm of his free hand met with his face. Catching the trailing tears the rolled into it.

'I just don't understand it!' he scram in the back of his mind. He took a quick glimpse toward the two figures in front of him, eyes darting from one to the other. He quickly pulled out of his trance and back into his own thoughts. He drew a long deep breath from the tense air around him, his nose cringed with disgust as he smelled a strong scent of blood filled his nostrils. He looked down at his hand half surprised to see it covered in the red liquid. "Oh yeah.." he thought, as if automatically to recall the incident from earlier. The out of control sasuke hovered over him, pound ferociously against his head. Beating him senseless until he fell apart to tears. " Did it really hurt him that bad? After all he's done to me?" and that's when naruto realized, "Maybe he really does care for me, but that doesn't explain all the traumatizing, violating, filthy…" He couldn't bear to think of it anymore. The anger grew fiercer he more he thought about every memory he'd ever created with sasuke.

"Stupid bastard." He muttered. "But," he hesitated his thoughts for a moment. "Was there ever a time he didn't take me for granted?" His eyes widened. There in fact had been. He found himself traveling into an old familiar field. The wind was blowing a warm breeze through the long and never ending field of green grass. It would pick up occasionally sending leaves that were torn apart from the orange and yellow colored trees. Blowing across Naruto's face, sometimes even skimming his cheeks or the tip of his nose. Nothing else seemed important but the young male lying next to him. "AMAZING!" Naruto said in pure delight and amazement as the clouds above him moved slowly creating different shapes. A small laugh came from the other boy, it was light and friendly, happy even. "Only you could get this much satisfaction from watching clouds naruto!" The raven-haired teen next to him smirked as he laughed. But the smirk slowly crept into a smile as he rolled over to face his blue-eyed angel. He slowly placed his hand upon Naruto's head. His fingers combed slowly through the gold locks, getting a noise of comfort from naruto.

Naruto closed his eyes with delight; it felt good to have sasuke touching him with care and ease. The warmth from his fingertips sent chills down his spine. Blood soon rushed to his cheeks as he felt Sasuke's fingers travel down to his forehead, continuing slowly over the bridge of his nose. Sasuke paused for a moment with his fingers still on naruto's nose. He smiled at him, His fingers etched forward until they met with naruto's lips. Heat rose to naruto's cheeks yet again, letting yet another noise of comfort escape his lips. Sasuke carefully traced over his lips, slowly, and lightly. Sasuke sighed, "Why is it so easy for you to make me happy?" his smiling face beamed at the young blond. Sasuke then shifted closer so he was able to place both hands on the heated cheeks of naruto's face. Naruto was the next to move, he brushed away the strands of black hair that seemed to be covering sasuke's face. He was shocked to see him crying. "Sasuke?!" Naruto asked in a surprised tone. He couldn't believe his eyes. Sasuke crying? "What's the matter?" he asked him as he laid his own hands upon the wet cheeks of his face.

"Naruto.." Sasuke began as he pulled naruto closer to him. "Thank you, for making me feel like I have something to live for." Naruto looked up to meet his lovers eyes. He smiled and moved even closer towards sasuke. "To me Sasuke, you are my everything. And nothing, no-no one, will ever change that. Without you, I feel….empty. Like I don't exist. So thank you for making me feel like I have sometime to live for." Naruto looked up, placing his other hand on sasuke's face and slowly moved his face towards the one smiling back at him. He didn't stop until he felt two lips upon his own. It felt soft, warm, and pleasant. He was surprised when Sasuke began kissing him back. After pulling apart her looked into sasuke's eyes. Letting his hand caress his tear stained cheek. Sasuke let a big grin form upon his face.

Naruto grinned back, "ha ha, hey that's a pretty good look for you sasuke!" he said laughing happily in the arms of the only person who seemed to matter to him. Sasuke threw his head back with laughter. "Ha ha, ah naruto….I can see how I fell in love with you now!" he said as he stroked naruto's back.

The image that had played over in naruto's thought soon placed his thoughts back to that painful darkness that filled his head, his very soul even. "I can see how I've hurt him, and something else." He tilted his head upward, taking a deep sigh before reaching his conclusion. "I love him." And for the first time that entire day, Naruto truly felt happy. The smile that quickly spread across his face was sincere. Now the only problem was the conflict of the two people in front of him. "Who should I pick?!" was the first thought to come screaming in his mind. "Or what should I do?!" fear welled up in the pit of his stomach. " I need to act fast."

He tried standing up but it was no use, he was in no condition to go anywhere. He tried sitting forward, but the kunai was still pinning his arm into the wall. "Damnit!" he said as he tried thrusting himself forward once again. The kunai wouldn't budge, it was stuck for good as far as naruto knew. Giving up for the moment he settled himself back against the wall deciding to figure out what was going on before he was going to do anything to solve this mess.

Sasuke and Itachi were still standing in the same place as before. Neither had budged. Itachi was the first to act this time. Raising his arm to his chest he breathed slowly. "Mangekyo Sharingan!" He yelled as he opened his eyes. Sasuke quickly stepped backward, but didn't move at all after that. "he just-" naruto said to himself in half amazement. Itachi had just captured Sasuke in one of his Genjutsus.
