Disclaimer: owning Naruto is on my list of things to do

Untouchable

Chapter 22: Stalking is an Olympic Sport

Sasuke watched Naruto leave. The bad feeling he had about Naruto spending the night had increased with every step Naruto took away from him.

He began pacing to try to relieve the unease. But after twenty minutes he decided that he needed to talk to Misa.

He quickly stalked down the hall and shoved her door open. "Misa, I really need to talk to you"

-SasuNaru-

Misa heard her door open and close and Sasuke call to her. She could tell that something was bothering him. She quickly got out of the bath and wrapped herself in a fluffy green towel.

She opened the door to see Sasuke curled into a ball in the center of her bed hugging a large stuffed fox, his face was buried in the soft fur.

Taking in the sight, Misa knew that this was serious. The way Sasuke was laying reminded her of the day so long ago when he found out that his beloved dog had been hit by a cart and killed. She hated seeing him like this especially since he was no longer a little child.

"Sasuke?" Misa walked over to the bed and ran her hand through his short black hair. "Sweetie?"

"Naruto left for Kiba's." Sasuke didn't lift his head. "You should get dressed."

She smiled. "Ok. I'll be back in just a sec."

Misa hurried to her closet and pulled on a pair of black yoga pants and a stretch green shirt. She grabbed a hair tie and pulled her long hair back into a high ponytail as she walked back to the young man who she considered her son.

She gently climbed onto the bed next to Sasuke and wrapped him and the fox into his arms. "Tell me whats wrong."

Sasuke rolled over and put his head on her shoulder. "When I woke up this morning I had this sense of unease. Like something bad was going to happen. It really started back with the picture but as I watched Naruto walk away I felt like that would be the last time I ever saw him again."

"It'll be alright baby." Misa ran her hand through his hair soothing him. "If you feel so uneasy why don't you go watch over him."

Sasuke closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around her. He didn't care how old he got he would always need his mother to hold him when his love couldn't.

The door opened and Gaara walked in and looked at the two on the bed and raised and invisible eyebrow.

Misa soft voice began to float across his mind. "Naruto left to spend the night at Kiba's and Sasuke has a bad feeling that something is going to happen tonight."

He nodded and crawled on the bed too placing his hand on Sasuke's back.

"I can't. He told me not to and I practically promise him and I don't want to break a promise to him."

Even wrapped in the arms of his 'parents' he felt completely helpless and couldn't stop the tears from falling.

"Hey, Hey. Don't do that sweetie. It'll work out I promise." Misa pulled him closer and tightened her arms. "Shhhh. Mommy and Daddy will make it all better."

Gaara nodded while wiping Sasuke's tears away and said, "If it helps I will go and watch over Naruto for tonight that way you're not technically breaking your promise. Do you want me to do that?"

All Sasuke could do was nod as he tried to stop the flow of tears. Gaara rubbed his back for a minute before disappearing out the door.

"See, baby? We'll make sure Naruto gets back to you safe and sound." Misa continued to hold him silently promising she wouldn't let go until Naruto was back in Sasuke's arms.

-SasuNaru-

Gaara swiftly darted through the shadows hoping that, for Sasuke's sake, Naruto was there and unharmed.

Finally, he arrived at Kiba's house. He found a tree that gave him the perfect view through the window but kept him from being seen. Not that anybody would see him if he didn't want them too.

Through the window he watched Kiba and Naruto start a movie. Then, Naruto left the room but came back with a couple of bottles of pop. Gaara couldn't help but find it strange that within minutes of drinking about half a bottle each both boys just passed out on the couch.

Moving closer he decided to send out a thought to Misa and ask her what she thought about it.

"Misa. I think Sasuke is right about something bad happening. I believe Orochimaru has struck. So far he doesn't have Naruto in his grasp but he put sedatives in both his and Kiba's drinks and now they are passed out cold on the couch."

"Hmm. I want this to be finished here and now. Wait for the collector and when they make the grab follow them. Keep me updated so that I can find you and we can take Orochimaru out once and for all."

Gaara sighed. He had a feeling that she would say that since he knew how much Sasuke meant to Misa and how much she hated Orochimaru's guts. "What are you going to tell Sasuke?"

"The truth."

He had a bad feeling about telling Sasuke the truth. Gaara knew Sasuke and he knew that Sasuke would not take the fact that the man who tried to kill him had a hold of the one person who was Sasuke's whole world. He also knew that no matter what he couldn't take Misa out of tell Sasuke.

-SasuNaru-

Misa closed her eyes. She wasn't sure if Sasuke would agree with her decision or go completely apeshit and go after Naruto.

She looked down at the boy in her arms. All she had ever wanted was to protect him. She had failed him once, but that failure led to something amazing. It meant that she had got to keep her little boy and helped him find love. But now that love was in danger and she had the chance to protect him and the only way she saw the end to this problem was to let him be put in even more danger.

"Sasuke?" She took a deep breath and left it out even though it wasn't necessary she found that it still helped steady her nerves.

"Did you hear from papa?" Sasuke looked up at her. He looked so innocent and when he used that name she knew that he was relying on her for reassurance.

"Yes, I did. When papa go there both Kiba and Naruto had been drugged and were passed out. Papa thinks that Orochimaru has struck. I have a decision I need you to make."

"What?" Sasuke blinked up at her.

"First, I could have papa get Naruto and Kiba out and bring them back here before one or both of them are captured. Or I could tell papa to wait and let them be captured and have papa follow them so that we know where Orochimaru is hiding and we can end this once and for all." Misa ran a hand through his hair knowing that this would be one of the hardest decisions Sasuke would ever have to make.

Sasuke tucked his face into her neck and sighed. All he wanted was for Naruto to come back now and be safe. He squeezed closer to Misa. "I want to end this once and for all."

She held him closer. He need more comfort now then ever because there was a chance that this could all go wrong and they might lose Naruto and not just Naruto but their entire family.

"I gave Sasuke the final decision. He wants this over with."

So? how's that for a quick update? I wrote this between bouts of intense packing (i'm moving into the dorms at my university)

I think I've finally gotten back into the groove of writing regularly...well at least I hope so

Anywho, I probably won't be able to update for about a week

Hugs and smut,
