An anonymous review for last chapter asked who Yukio is and to answer the question he is an original character…some people thought that Kyuubi would be Sasuke's first boyfriend after reading the first half and that was intentional…

Another anonymous reviewer from last chapter, Ttrace, brought up how Mikoto is a horrible mother, this will be addressed in a later chapter(s)…

This chapter title is inspired by a 10 years song

Really this is where the true story begins, the first 4 chapters were to give Sasuke's background so that readers could really understand why acts the way he does…I know that I didn't give information about Naruto's past, but if need be it'll be told in later chapters…I almost added a chapter to the story that gave a short overview of Naruto's life but I just felt that it interrupted the flow of the story and I just didn't like it…

As always I own nothing enjoy and please review

Chapter 5: Fix Me

Three Years Later

Sasuke took a deep breath as he looked at the large building. 'Why did I decide to stay in the dorms?' he asked himself. It wasn't as if he were going to college out of state or even hours away from his home. He stayed close for one very simple reason: his brother. He ran his hand through his black hair, 'Which will be the better of two evils Kakashi or my roommate?' Kakashi had never been ready to be a father, though he did his best, it was evident that he wasn't ready to change his ways entirely. He had made time to try to give Sasuke a somewhat normal childhood, but often times his love life took precedence. In other words, it was stay with a roommate or listen to Kakashi and his boyfriend.

He decided not to think about it any longer as he started to walk towards his dorm room. He looked at the sheet of paper containing his room number. 'West Hall 345,' he read to himself once again, memorizing the number. He shoved the paper back in the pocket that he knew wasn't containing the room key as he made his way to the third floor.

When he finally made it to his dorm he hesitated to open the door. 'What the hell?' he thought as he already heard voices from the other side of the door. The voices were loud and that was probably the last thing he wanted in a roommate. 'Just shoot me now,' he sighed as he pulled out his key and opened the door.

The dark haired man saw two guys, one blond and one brunet, sitting and talking loudly. Sasuke was starting to think that he should have just stayed with Kakashi. They were laughing about something, but Sasuke had missed what it was about. Once he walked in, the talking stopped and all of their attention turned toward the young Uchiha.

"You must be my roommate," the blond said excitedly. When he realized that Sasuke was looking at him as if he were crazy, he said, "This is my friend Kiba. Oh, and I'm Naruto." The blond was hyperactive and Sasuke was already wondering if he had some form of ADD.

"Right," was all he said, he then put his things down on the bed the two weren't sitting on. He was happy that it wasn't by the window, but that was the only good thing about the room. Overall, the room was small and he could already tell that his roommate was going to be loud.

"What's your name?" Naruto asked. Usually he'd write the guy off as a bastard, however, he couldn't help but be physically attracted to him. Anyone with eyes would be able to see that the dark haired man was sex on legs, even though he wasn't even trying. However, the fact that he didn't even try was probably the best part.

"Sasuke," he answered, as he looked at the blond, surprised that the blond hadn't already known that. Most people knew by his looks alone that he was the youngest Uchiha. He was hesitant about getting close to people and Sasuke didn't plan on changing that anytime soon. His roommate wasn't going to turn into his friend; he'd already decided that before meeting him.

"Okay, well I'm going to go," Kiba said quickly, already feeling awkward. "You're still coming tonight, right?" he asked Naruto, who just nodded. "Cool see you then," the brunet quickly walked out of the room. He realized that Naruto didn't realize who Sasuke was and thought, 'This is going to be interesting.'

The small room quickly filled with silence once the door closed. Naruto wanted to talk to Sasuke, but had no idea what to say. "So," he started awkwardly. "Is this your first semester?" he asked. He guessed it was since from what he could tell by his friends that were staying in the dorms, the school seemed to pair first years together.

Sasuke nodded, but didn't answer verbally. He started to unpack his things, silently. He wasn't interested in getting to know people, they always asked too many questions when he did. He decided that rather than trying to make friends with his new roommate, he'd instead text one of the few friends that he already had. 'West hall 345 my roommate is annoying' he sent to his best friend, Suigetsu, as he sat on his bed. He knew by that single text that if Suigetsu were already on campus, he would be there in a matter of minutes. His guess was confirmed when he received the reply, 'Can't wait to meet him, see you in a few.'

When the dark haired man looked up he realized that the blond was still talking, attempting to make conversation even though he thought that he made it perfectly clear that he didn't want to talk. Sasuke put on his best glare, trying to scare the blond away, but it didn't even seem to faze him. "Are you always this annoying?" he asked, his voice filled with venom.

Naruto shut his mouth, but only for a second. "Are you always this much of a bastard?" he responded angrily. "I just try to be nice and this is the reaction I receive," Naruto sighed in defeat. He was starting to get annoyed that his roommate didn't respond to any of what he thought were good attempts at making conversation. It was like the man had no people skills whatsoever.

"Hn," Sasuke grunted with a shrug. He'd once again started to ignore the other man. 'What they say about blondes appears to be true, but I guess I already knew that,'he then sent before looking back up at the blond. 'This should be fun; I don't even think knows my last name. What a moron,' he thought with a smirk as he lied back on his bed.

"I'll take that as a yes," the blond huffed. "Asshole," he tried to mutter under his breath, but he knew by the look on his face that Sasuke had heard him. "Are you nice to anyone?" he then asked, trying to get him to talk in any way he could.

"Yes, just not morons," the man answered. He was just hoping to get the blond to leave, though he didn't want to admit the main reason why. He didn't care if he were being mean; in fact, that was his goal. He didn't want to make friends and having an attitude was one way to ensure that he wouldn't be making any new friends any time soon.

Naruto gave an annoyed grunt, "Whatever, I'm leaving." Sasuke just shrugged, which only made him angrier. "Asshole," he repeated again, louder than the last time, as he grabbed his jacket and wallet. 'People always like me,' he thought, frustrated. 'How can he hate me so quickly?' he wondered, trying to think of a way to make Sasuke at least give him a chance. He walked out of the room, not bothering to lock the door since Sasuke was in the room he didn't see any reason to. He turned around and promptly ran into a pale man, with equally light hair. "Sorry," he muttered, still bothered by the Sasuke situation.

The man looked at the room that he had just walked out of, "So you're the roommate." He saw Naruto's eyes widen and he explained, "I'm Suigetsu, Sasuke's friend." He surprised the blond by holding out his hand to shake. The light haired man had a smug look on his face as he scanned Naruto, understanding why Sasuke had a problem with him.

Naruto shook the pale man's hand, "I'm Naruto." He was a bit confused as to how normal Suigetsu appeared, if one didn't take his odd appearance into consideration. "I can't believe the bastard has a friend," he accidently said. Naruto didn't have the best filter when it came to what he thought and what he said, which often got him into trouble.

Suigetsu just laughed it off, "Sasuke's a little socially inept, don't take anything he says to heart." Naruto just looked at him with what seemed to be a slightly confused stare, which made Suigetsu think, 'This guy might be as dumb as Sasuke said.' He sighed, "He's a little damaged, it doesn't help his ability to make friends."

"I know what socially inept means," Naruto said defensively. "I'm not stupid," he sulked. He hated when people thought he was stupid just because of his blond hair and his inability to concentrate on things for very long. "Did Sasuke tell you that I'm stupid?" he asked. "Because I'm really not, I just tend to change subjects a lot, which may come off as dumb to some people," he tried to explain himself. He wasn't sure what else he could have done to make Sasuke think that he's stupid, so he figured he thought his rambling made him an idiot.

"Right," Suigetsu said teasingly. 'I understand why he annoys Sasuke,' he thought as he looked at the talkative man. 'Though on the other hand I'm sure that Sasuke doesn't find him as annoying as he says,' he thought as he took in the man's appearance. "I'm sure I'll see you around, but I have to go," he said with a chuckle. He just walked right into the room, knowing that Sasuke was expecting him.

'Damn it, now they both think I'm an idiot,' he thought with a sigh. 'I'll just have to fix that later,' he smiled, knowing that one way or another he'd make Sasuke become his friend. His persistence always paid off, this time would be no different.

NS

Suigetsu walked into the room to find Sasuke staring up at the ceiling. He had a feeling that he knew why Sasuke was being more of a bastard than normal, or more the reasons why. "You're attracted to him," he smirked. "At least physically," he teased as he sat on what he guessed was Naruto's bed.

"Excuse me?" Sasuke sat up quickly. "What the hell would make you think that?" he asked with a lethal tone. "Moron is not my type and he is clearly a moron," the dark haired man glared. His form of denial was only confirming Suigetsu's suspicions.

"I said physically," Suigetsu emphasized. "Don't try to deny it," he said, knowing Sasuke all too well. "Blonde hair, blue eyes, and well built. He's completely your type," Suigetsu continued as he kicked off his shoes. "And that's the problem," he added, looking Sasuke directly in the eyes. "That's why you're trying to hate him," Suigetsu deduced.

"You're a moron," Sasuke muttered as he looked away. "I am not attracted to him," he said, wishing the conversation would just end. He hated any conversations that dealt with anything even remotely regarding his dating life, especially about his "type" as Suigetsu stated.

"The guy looks remarkably like Yukio," the light haired man pointed out. He knew that the blond man was still a touchy subject for Sasuke, but it was still a valid point. He saw Sasuke stiffen and he then asked, "Is that why you hate him so much?" He knew Sasuke generally disliked people and tended to keep his distance, but normally he was just indifferent toward them.

"I don't hate him," Sasuke huffed. "He just highly annoys me," he added. He saw that Suigetsu was unconvinced and said, "It has nothing to do with the fact that he looks like that lying son of a bitch." Sasuke then realized that his choice of words probably didn't help his case. However he didn't care and he wasn't sure why he continued the conversation.

"Believe whatever you want to believe," Suigetsu shrugged, seeing Sasuke was getting agitated because of the conversation. "But," he started again, causing Sasuke to let out an annoyed groan. "You know your brother wouldn't be happy with the fact that you aren't even trying to make friends," he pointed out with complete seriousness.

"Itachi," he paused, closing his eyes for a moment. "Itachi just thinks that I'm broken because of everything that has happened. But I'm not, I don't need him trying to fix me," he said slightly angrily, as he opened his eyes once again. "There's nothing wrong with me," he added as he looked down, his tone suddenly changing to one of sadness. He hated to think about what happened in the past and most of all he hated people acting as if he needed to be fixed. It was as if people thought that his life had broke him and that he was something they could fix.

"Are you sure about that?" Suigetsu questioned. When the other man didn't answer, Suigetsu continued by saying, "You get like this every year around this time. If it's still affecting you like this, I'd say you're somewhat broken, Sasuke." He knew it wasn't what Sasuke wanted to hear, but he needed to hear it. If he never got over what happened all of those years ago then he'd never be able to move on with his life.

"Shut up," he muttered. "Itachi doesn't need your help, you're supposed to be my friend, not his cohort," he continued slightly defensively. His eyes were filled with a mixture of emotions, the main one being sadness.

"The anniversary is tomorrow," he reminded Sasuke. "What are you going to do this year?" he asked, concerned about his friend's mental health. He hoped that the mix of the anniversary of the "incident" mixed with whom his roommate looked like wouldn't send him over the edge. "You should do something to take your mind off of it," he tried. "We could go to the movies or something," he suggested. Each year he tried to get Sasuke to not think about what had happened, and each year he seemed to fail.

"No thank you," Sasuke said. "Tomorrow I just want to be alone," he frowned. "And right now I really don't want to talk about it," he added. Sasuke always got moody when the subject of his father's death and brother's imprisonment came up and Suigetsu knew that there was no way to get through to him in those moments.

"Right, sorry," Suigetsu nodded. "Let's go see what Juugo and Karin are up to, maybe they can cheer you up," he said as he started to put his shoes back on. Suigetsu knew that if he didn't change the subject then Sasuke would shut down and send him away. The dark haired man had many defense mechanisms and used them whenever he felt uncomfortable.

"I doubt it," Sasuke mumbled as he sat up, putting his shoes on as well. "You just want to see your girlfriend," he rolled his eyes, knowing his suggestion had nothing to do with Suigetsu wanting to cheer him up. "But whatever," he sighed. He knew that the rest of the night would be similar to every other night. Suigetsu and Karin would either end up acting like no one else was in the room or they would fight and try to involve one of them into it to help them. Juugo would most likely ignore them, rather observing them and Sasuke would try to ignore them all.

His guess was right. They ended up going to a movie, during which Suigetsu and Karin made out the entire time. The two then argued about what happened in the movie, to which Sasuke pointed out that neither of them were really watching the movie. Lastly, Juugo stayed silent throughout the entire thing. The monotony was one of the things that made Sasuke feel comfortable with his friends. He liked when things were predictable.

TBC….

I think the song Fix Me really fits for Sasuke in this story as far as to how he feels…if you've never heard the song before I really recommend it – I absolutely love the singer's voice
