RECAP: Sorry it's taking me so long read the bottom and you'll know why.

Kiba and Naruto were doing their best to keep a strong stomach but when they brought in the donor they almost got sick. They didn't want to leave the gallery so they just looked away,

"You should've told her I wasn't gay."

"Hey, you sat there and watched her. You're the pervert."

"I don't think I am. She looks older than me."

"I guess you would know now that you've carefully inspected her almost naked body."

"...Yeah well...she's stacked."

"She's also homophobic."

"Oh..."

"...That doesn't make her any less pretty physically I guess."

"Damn right. I mean seriously. Stacked. At least C's."

"Yeah I don't really-I'm not an authority on things like this."

"They're nice is the point."

"Yeah not really my thing."

"They were once. Can't you just appreciate them?"

"Alright fine, they're nice. I guess."

"I like her."

"You like a woman who'd let two men watch her undress?"

"She can't be that bad."

"Oh...look...she fainted."

Kiba looked down at the operation and yes, 3 was out. The two of them went down to the OR door where Sakura's second intern was dragging her out. He saw them and handed her off to them. Naruto carried her to the nearest gurney and let a nurse take her. They walked back to the gallery and watched Sakura close. She waved up to them with her bloody gloves on and they nearly got sick again. She closed him up and walked out, leaving her scrub cap on.

"Man I love surgery!"

"You did good."

"Thanks Naruto. Where's 3?"

"A nurse took her. What happened?"

"She said she couldn't see so I told her to go sit but instead she laid down I guess."

"Why'd that happen?"

"A number of reasons. Surgery takes a lot out of you, it's not for everyone it could also be that she's just starting out."

"OK. Well chief what do you do now? What's your next job?"

"Nothing I don't already do."

"Oh OK. So what now?"

"What we normally do. What did you expect?"

"An ass load of new work."

"Tsunade didn't do anything. Ever. So I'm used to all the work, anyway guess what?"

"What?"

"Sasuke can go home in a few months. He just has to finish his physical therapy."

"He's been doing physical therapy?"

"Yeah he should be there right now. Walking and stuff like that. Whenever I check on him he's doing great so maybe even earlier."

"I'm gonna see. I haven't seen him out of bed in so long I'm not even sure he has legs anymore."

"Very funny. You remember where it is right?"

"Of course of course."

Naruto started toward the physical therapy room and Kiba followed. They were there pretty soon and saw Sasuke with an enormous amount of nurses next to him supporting a large amount of his weight. Kiba and Naruto walked in confused. Sakura had told them that he was doing well. Maybe this was doing well. Naruto called out to Sasuke and the nurses disbanded.

"N-naruto...I didn't see you..."

"Hey, how are your legs?"

"What'd Sakura say?"

"She said you were doing good. Leaving in a few months."

"Then that's how I'm doing."

"So let's see your walking."

"...Actually I'm...done. So let's go back."

"Let's walk back. I haven't see you use your legs in a very long time."

"...I'm not very good at it yet."

"That's fine. Let's see it."

"OK come here."

Sasuke put almost the majority of his weight on Naruto and tried walking. His movement were twitchy and he winced every time he had to move them. He'd taken about three steps off of the treadmill before he stopped, panting.

"Sasuke...how long have you been in therepy?"

"...Not that long...I can walk it just hurts."

"Is it getting better?"

"Yeah...it's taking forever though. It'll get better if I keep doing this but...Sakura wants me out of here in a few months."

"You can make it by then."

"I don't know yet. It's never hurt this much to do something so simple. I don't want to push it."

"Then don't."

"I won't get out of here on time if I don't."

"Don't be so stubborn."

"Can you wheel my chair over here?"

"Yeah."

Kiba wheeled the chair over to Naruto who still had Sasuke hanging on to him. Sasuke sat down and his breathing returned to normal. Naruto wheeled him back to his room. Gaara was still there, alone. He was feeling much better at this point. Sasuke and Naruto made a team effort to get him back into bed. Sakura came in a few minutes later. Still in her scrub cap. It turned out that Tsunade did a few things here and there, like the budget.

"...Sasuke...my brain hurts...to balance a medical and surgical budget...it makes me want to throw up."

"Tough being chief?"

"Not being chief, it's tough lacking stamina. Very much needed stamina."

"You'll get the hang of it."

"How someone like Tsunade could be hokage and chief is beyond me."

"She had you."

"I need a nap."

"You can sleep here."

"No, I can't sleep in a patient's bed. I'll go find someplace. I love you Sasuke."

"Love you too."

Sakura left and went to find somewhere to sleep. She tried the on call room but the two beds were taken. She looked for and empty patient bed but there were nurses everywhere and she didn't want to be caught. She figured the next best place to sleep were the long benches in the changing room. They were wide and cushioned. It couldn't be that bad. She went into the dressing room and found 3. She looked like she was crying.

"3? What's wrong?"

"...Nothing..."

"Something's wrong 3. Just tell me."

"...OK...you brought Naru to work again..."

"...Why does that make you sad?"

"I don't know you well enough..."

"My goodness 3, man up and tell me!"
