Hey I just thought that this chapter could have been a lot better so I decided to change it slightly. I want you guys to know that this story is not dead, the uploading is very slow however. I will finish it.
"Listen I know it's not ideal for you but Neji probably wants a break. He doesn't understand how art works. He doesn't know how you can get lost in it so easily." Kankuro explained on the phone. Gaara had called him at 3 in the morning after the day Neji left.
"How can I make him come back? I almost had him after all these years and than I scared him off." Gaara whined uncharacteristically, as he was out of ideas and hope.
"Just give him some time. He won't be able to resist you, I know it." Kankuro was smoking a cigarette, front of the club called Akatsuki where he worked as a bar tender.
"You don't know that! You don't know Neji... He is like a God with his smooth silky gold brown hair and beautiful .. uh coloured eyes."
A sigh of frustration could be heard from Kankuro next to the faint sound of pounding music from the club. Gaara was so in love and Kankuro was just too busy for this.
"Look Gaara invite a friend over or something, or come to the club get wasted. I need to go now." He hang up and threw his almost finished cigarette away. The chilly night air chased him back inside the club, and the thought of his boss thinking he was spending too much time on his break.
Gaara sighed as he put the phone down on his desk. There was no one he could call at 3am but Kankuro, Every other normal human being was sleeping at this unholy hour.
'What a role model' Gaara thought as he considered going to Akatsuki and getting wasted. His brother wasn't the best person to listen to when it came to love, but the redhead had no one else to call.
After half an hour of sitting front of his desk next to the phone, Gaara decided to play with Shukaku while he waited for the morning to arrive.
Naruto woke up to the sun forcing his eyes open. He sat up and felt the weight of yesterday's food. Sighing in hopelessness, he got out of bed and put some clothes on. Black sweatpants and a long sleeved orange shirt was just perfect for hiding his hideous body from his love. Life was just cruel. Some unfortunate people were blind. Not physically, but blind in the sense that they didn't notice other people. Sasuke was just like this; too engulfed in his studies and his conflict with his brother to notice his friends and Naruto. Sure he spent time with them, but he didn't notice them. Naruto's sighs went unheard, the look of emptiness and loss in his eyes went unseen. Gaara's and Neji's conflict went unseen. Sasuke only noticed these when they were talked about. Unlike Naruto, who sees the loneliness and fear of action in Sasuke's eyes, who sees Gaara's frustration with Neji's slowness in developing their relationship further, and he sees Neji's need to take some time to get to know his feelings. Seeing these feelings in people frustrated Naruto. Others didn't see them therefore didn't act on them making the feelings worse. A demonic cycle
Once he was dressed he sat on his bed. What was he supposed to do? He decided to play his role as a slave. Slaves got fucked. He didn't feel like having sex with Sasuke right now, but than again who cared about what a slave felt like not doing?
Staying in the room and waiting for Sasuke would be what a not willing slave would do. Seducing Sasuke is what a willing slave would do. Which role should Naruto take? He wasn't sure. He wanted to appeal to Sasuke as much as possible. Sasuke was so kind to him before, and Sasuke seemed to like sex very much so the blond figured he should be willing. Though Sasuke didn't like sluts, which tells him he should be unwilling. His head hurt from all the thinking. Hacking what Sasuke wanted from him was a challenge.
Meanwhile, in the other room Sasuke was showering in the bathroom connected to his bedroom. Should he treat Naruto as a slave and use him for sex? That was the purpose of a slave, however, Naruto loved him. Wouldn't Sasuke be leading him on if he used him for his pleasure? Or would he break his heart? Sasuke rubbed his temple while washing shampoo out of his hair. He decided to just have Naruto around. Like a friend maybe. He liked having Naruto around. It brightened his day because even though the blond had his problems, bigger than Sasuke's problems, he still smiled, which made Sasuke feel like he could get through his days. It was feeling so lost that made Sasuke not want to live in this world. What was his purpose? Was it to be tortured by his brother, to be harassed by his therapist, to be loved by someone he cannot love back? He definitely did not want to play this role.
As he got out of the shower his phone was ringing. Not bothering to dry himself, he walked into his room, over to his night stand and picked up the phone. He should have checked the caller before picking up...
"Sasuke..." Kakashi sighed. "It's time you picked up. You missed your therapy yesterday."
"I'm awear." Sasuke growled into the phone.
"I am expecting you in my office in an hour." Kakashi said strictly as he hang up. Sasuke cursed under his breath.
An hour later Naruto and Sasuke were in Kakashi's empty office. There was a note on the door that instructed them to come in; Kakashi will be back in a minute.
"So who exactly are we seeing?" Naruto asked Sasuke as they sat on the couch front of Kakashi's desk.
"Kakashi. My therapist." Sasuke sighed, using a dead tone of voice to let Naruto know how much he wasn't in the mood.
"Kakashi?" The blond's eyes widened. There is no way... His therapist! Well not his, but Iruka's boyfriend. He was the one who taught him how to distract himself from unwanted situations with the colour orange. It was an accident they have met. Right after Naruto was taken into the warehouse, he managed to climb out of the window from the first floor and he ran. Ran all the way to Iruka's house, just to find that his beloved caretaker was not home. Instead, a weird guy named Kakashi was in his apartment reading porn who was a therapist and Iruka's boyfriend. The blond told the therapist about his situation and Kakashi gave him some advice he could use to cope with everything. He was dialing the police when Kabuto and his people came for Naruto. Both of them were putting up a fight but Kabuto's small "army" was stronger.
When Iruka got back from the orphanage he found a bleeding Kakashi on the floor. He was rushed to the hospital and hardly remembered what happened. Iruka had a feeling that the "someone" who had visited their house was Naruto and he was in trouble, but he could not find Naruto anywhere and had no idea to look for him on the ST&ST market. He should've known when it appeared that Naruto stopped existing to the world. During the years after this accident, Kakashi regained some of the memories of the night through his dreams but did not tell Iruka because he knew that it would break his dolphin's heart. However, he didn't stop helping Iruka look for the boy, and secretly, he looked on the ST&ST market but Naruto was not there.
Little Kakashi knew, just when he looked Naruto was with the woman who abused him physically and emotionally. Kakashi did not know that while a slave was being owned they removed him from the market. This made Kakashi confused and thought maybe Naruto wasn't a slave.
The police didn't find anything suspicious that night. They could not explain the bleeding Kakashi on the floor and the lack of fingerprints and the missing of few hours of recording in the security cameras. They dismissed the case. Which angered Iruka so much that he started a campaign against the Uchiha police.
"Yes Kakashi. Do you know him?" Sasuke's attention was caught.
"Yes. He is Iruka's boyfriend!" Naruto's lips spread into a huge childish grin. This was the only way he knew to react: by smiling. Inside he was raging, tossing, turning his rummaging thoughts. Excitement, desperation and sadness tore at his heart.
He may see Iruka through Kakashi.
"And who might Iruka be?" Sasuke questioned. His heart felt warmer as he took a glance at Naruto's beautiful smile that shone with hope and happiness. At least that's what he thought.
"My favorite caretaker from the orphanage I grew up in." Naruto explained watching Sasuke's expression carefully. There was a smile on his face. A genuine but hardly visible smile. It wasn't his lips that were smiling, it was his eyes. Naruto's rushing thoughts stopped. Oh Sasuke was so beautiful.
"Oh how weird, your caretaker's boyfriend is my therapist." Sasuke mumbled and frowned in thought. Has he seen Iruka before?
The door opened and Kakashi stepped in. He heard talking from the room when he was approaching it and wasn't happy that Sasuke brought Gaara along. It was preferred that patients came alone because they were easier to talk to; they were more open to therapy.
However, as he stepped in, he discovered that Gaara was not Sasuke's company when a blond, small figure jumped in his arms and sobbed in his shoulders. He heard a small yell that sounded like his name. From a voice that was familiar from his dreams. Naruto?
"Kakashi sensei Kakashi sensei!" Naruto cried. He didn't believe he was so close to Iruka... With Kakashi here, Iruka is just a few calls away.
"Naruto?" It was so unbelievable. The small little boy from years ago. The one he has been looking for. He was here. Flashbacks from his dreams occupied his mind. Was he dreaming again?
"Did you escape the warehouse again?" Kakashi questioned with a soft voice as he hugged the way too small frame of Naruto.
"No." Naruto let him go this time. "Sasuke owns me." He spoke quietly.
Sasuke. A perfectly raised boy. The son of the Uchiha police's founder. How could someone so good do such a bad thing? As bad as purchasing an underage boy to use for sex. No Sasuke wouldn't do such a thing.
"How did you come to possess a sex slave, Sasuke?" Kakashi questioned with a hard expression.
"Itachi bought him for me to annoy me and he was going to fuck him but I got there first than Orochimaru kidnapped him and Suigetsu saved him and I brought him back to me." Sasuke said a short version of the story.
"I don't understand most of that, but okay. You know it is against the law to have sex with someone underage." Kakashi spoke softly as he sat down in his chair. He was supposed to report if a patient had done something illegal.
"He gave his consent." Sasuke reasoned.
"I didn't want Itachi to have my virginity." Naruto cut in with some sourness in his voice. It wasn't as stomach churning to talk about it anymore. Maybe he began to develop a tolerance to the subject of rape.
"Naruto, did you feel better that Itachi couldn't have your first time?" Kakashi asked, picking up his notepad. He always wanted to find out about Naruto's psychological state.
"I felt safer. Can I see Iruka? Sasuke, will you allow me to?" Naruto pleaded. He watched Sasuke's features harden. It was hardly visible but Naruto noticed. He was asking too much. He was getting on Sasuke's nerves with his wishes! Though he was asking, playing his role as a slave.
"Okay." Sasuke said. It was like Naruto was almost free. He could do what he wanted, just had to ask Sasuke. Naruto was slipping out of Sasuke's grasp. He was allowing him too much. He was a slave who belonged to Sasuke. He couldn't let Naruto free just like that!
"Thank you." Although Naruto didn't show it because Sasuke's aura was so serious, he was jumping with joy inside. He wanted to cry. He was going to see Iruka. It was a miracle!
"I appreciate that you are helping Naruto gain his life back." Kakashi told Sasuke. He could see that Sasuke wanted to possess Naruto fully, for one reason or another he didn't want to know. Calling the cops to let Naruto free wouldn't work. He was pretty sure half of them had their own slaves and they would be stupid to let any free to ruin someone else's fun. Kakashi wanted to remind Sasuke of what is the right thing to do.
"Hn." Sasuke wasn't trying to help Naruto get a life. Sasuke was trying to have a slave. The decision was final from this moment, Sasuke will treat Naruto as a slave. To Naruto he appeared to not care. It appeared like he didn't care about how happy Kakashi was that he treats him like a human. It sounded like all Sasuke wanted to do was to go home and have nothing to do with another human being. Why did he have to be so blind?
However, Kakashi knew better. Sasuke was out of words because he didn't know how to handle the situation. He wanted Naruto all to himself but that would be selfish and a crime that everyone else is committing who owns a slave. Sasuke didn't want to be like that, he wanted to be a better person deep inside. Kakashi knew this from the previous therapies with the raven. They had three since Itachi was arrested. Kakashi learnt a lot from listening to the continuous "hn" and the "I don't want anything to do with it". The raven doesn't want to care. Which holds him back from living life to the fullest. Making him lost, as if you don't care you don't have a purpose.
"And when can I see Iruka?" Naruto cut in the other two's thought processes quietly.
"I could take you two home for dinner." Kakashi offered with a kind smile. Naruto glanced at Sasuke pleadingly.
"Okay." Sasuke sighed and Naruto's heart throbbed in pain. 'He is annoyed with me.' The blond thought. However for some reason the desperation to see Iruka overpowered the hurt over Sasuke's reaction. He just hoped he didn't raise his hopes too high.
Meanwhile, Lee was on the phone with Neji, discussing Gaara's whereabouts.
"What do you mean he is gone?" Neji put his pen down on the paper he was doing his homework on.
"Well if you say he is not with you and I cannot seem to find him in his apartment which is torn apart." Lee explained calmly.
"Call the police I'll be right there." Neji jumped up from his seat and got his coat.
Half an hour later the police was in the middle of inspecting the scene of Gaara's room. They already identified that there was a struggle between three people, two against one. Very large possibility that Gaara was kidnapped.
"We have collected the samples we needed and could collect. We took pictures so if you would like, you can tidy the room up for Gaara when we find him." Sai stated to Neji and Lee as he read over his notes.
