oOooOooo

Naruto sighed as he unlocked the apartment door of his and Sasuke's now shared apartment. It's been nearly three months since the horrible incident with Sai. After Sasuke beating him and the two spending the night just being in each other's arms, Naruto awoke the next day to a phone call from the police. Him, Sasuke and Sakura all headed down to the station where they were questioned by the officers. It felt like hours being there, especially for Naruto who was asked questions from start to finish about his and Sai's relationship. The memories that day stirred up left Naruto feeling exhausted but he agreed to press charges.

It wasn't long before the police made an arrest and Sai was put behind bars, no opportunity for bail, much to Naruto's relief.

Once Sai was put behind bars, Naruto finally felt himself relax, allowing himself to enjoy his new relationship with Sasuke. Though not much changed in the dynamics of their relationship, the added bit of romance had Naruto practically floating on cloud nine.

Their first time having sex, the raven made sure Naruto was in constant pleasure, attending to every one of his needs. It left Naruto speechless and more than eager to reciprocate the next time they had sex, which was the very next day.

Nearly a week and a half after Sai's arrest, was the actual trial. The evidence against Sai was damning. The trial lasted no longer than a day and half. He was guilty of domestic violence with aggravating factors, he was going to be locked up for ten years.

Once Sai was finally put away, the couple could relax and enjoy their relationship. Everything was going Naruto's way and he was in euphoria. Until a few days ago.

Naruto began to get paranoid, feeling like he was being watched. During his classes, he would get distracted by the passing figures in the doorway. He was hearing whispers behind him, turning around to see that no one was there.

It was even affecting his sleep. His dreams were either filled with memories of the events that happened at the end of his relationship with Sai or a paranoid nightmare of Sai coming after him for finally being with Sasuke.

Sasuke looked up from the kitchen table as he heard the door open, putting his pen down, he gave the blonde a small smile. "Welcome home."

"Thank you." Naruto smiled back at him, kicking off his shoes and pushing them to the side without a care. He made his way to the table, occupying the seat next to the raven. "Whatcha up to?"

Sasuke leaned over to place a kiss on the blonde's cheek before looking down at the small pile of papers. "Just working on this paper, I'm pretty much finished, just feel like I'm missing a small detail."

"All work and no play makes Sasuke a dull boy." Naruto teased, trailing a finger from Sasuke's wrist to his shoulder. "Wanna take a break and have some fun with me?"

Sasuke let out a shiver from the blonde's sensual touch and placed his pen down on the table, giving Naruto a smirk. "You always know how to distract me."

"It's a talent of mine." Naruto gave him a wink before making his way to their shared bedroom. He heard the sound of the chair scraping, indicating Sasuke was right behind him. He sat on the bed, his hands placed behind him as he leaned back, waiting for the raven.

Sasuke entered the bedroom, standing in front of Naruto and slowly took off his black t-shirt, throwing it across the room before he pushed Naruto on the bed, straddling his lap. He leaned forward, capturing Naruto's lips in a sensual kiss.

Naruto kissed the raven back with vigor. He felt Sasuke begin to pull on his shirt and he sat up slightly, allowing him to pull the item of clothing up. They pulled apart, panting as Sasuke quickly pulled the rest of the shirt up and off of Naruto's torso, throwing it in the direction of where his shirt was currently lying.

Sasuke began to kiss the tanned neck, causing the blonde to let out soft moans. The raven began to nip at the sensitive skin.

At the first nip, Naruto froze. A flash of Sai's face from when he choked him flashed through his mind. He let out a disgusted noise, causing Sasuke to pull away, an eyebrow raised.

"Everything okay?"

Naruto shook his head. "Uh, yeah. Everything's good."

Sasuke wasn't too convinced. "Are you sure?" He searched cerulean eyes.

Naruto gave him a smile. "Yeah, I'm sure." To prove his point, he gently pulled Sasuke down to him, passionately kissing him. The raven didn't need much convincing after that, hungrily kissing the blonde back. He reached in between the two of them, lightly groping Naruto's bulge through his pants, earning a gasp.

Sasuke smirked into the kiss before allowing his tongue to access the blonde's mouth.

They pulled away and Naruto watched as Sasuke hurriedly took off his pants. He reached for his own only to have Sasuke take over. He fell back to the bed and let out a soft moan as Sasuke's mouth engulfed him. He threaded his fingers through raven locks as waves of pleasure washed over him as Sasuke's skilled mouth performed wonders.

"Sa-sasuke." Naruto let out a soft whimper.

Sasuke took the hint, and brought his fingers to Naruto's lips. "Suck."

The blonde did what he was told, sensually wetting pale fingers, putting on a show. He smirked as he watched Sasuke become entranced by his performance. Sasuke took his fingers away, bringing them close to Naruto's entrance.

Sai's face once again flashed before Naruto's eyes, and the memories came back to him. "Stop!" Naruto screeched, pushing himself away from Sasuke.

The raven looked down at him in shock. "What? What's going on?"

"I-i can't do this." Naruto whispered, sitting up and hugging his knees to his chest.

Sasuke scrunched up his face in confusion, not hearing him. "What?"

"I said I can't do this." Naruto spoke up louder, tears beginning to run down his face. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Sasuke stood up straight, running a hand through his hair. "What happened?"

Naruto shook his head, closing his eyes tightly. "I-" he paused. "Sai." Was all he able to say before letting out a shaky breath. He could feel Sasuke's annoyance, and he couldn't help but feel guilty, this kept happening, and it seemed to only be getting worse.

The raven let out a long sigh before sitting next to the blonde, pulling him against himself. "It's okay, Naruto."

Naruto felt tears prickle at the corners of his eyes as he heard the softness and understanding in Sasuke's voice. "Thank you."

Sasuke kept silent, gently rubbing Naruto's back until he felt him completely relax in his hold. "I think," at the sound of Sasuke's serious tone in his voice, Naruto pulled away, looking up into onyx eyes. "We may need to do something about this, Naruto. You've been having these flashbacks for a while now. It's been heavily affecting your life."

Naruto let out a shaky breath. "I-I know."

"He's not coming back, Naruto, and for whatever reason this just seems to be getting worse." The raven was beginning to become upset. "I honestly don't know how much longer I can do this."

Naruto felt a rush of panic and he felt tears spring to his eyes at the thought of Sasuke leaving him. "No! Please, I don't want to break up!"

Sasuke raised an eyebrow and let out a sigh at the panicked look of the blonde. He gently pulled Naruto closer to him. "I didn't mean it like that, Naruto. I mean I can't just sit back and watch as this is clearly affecting you."

Naruto once again relaxed in Sasuke's hold, feeling assured that the raven wasn't going to end their relationship.

"I think you need to go to therapy, Naruto."

The statement made the blonde freeze. He never even considered therapy, something he thought was for people who truly needed help. He wasn't one of them, was he? He looked up at Sasuke who was staring straight forward. "Y-you really think I need therapy?"

Sasuke slowly looked down at the blonde before giving him a nod. "It's affecting your sleep, your romantic life, and just your everyday life. This isn't something most would consider normal."

Naruto gave him a smirk. "Yeah but I was never normal."

Sasuke's mouth slowly formed into a smirk. "You don't have to tell me twice. But still," the seriousness was back. "I think it's important for you to move on with this and go back to your not-so-normal-normal life."

Naruto took in the raven's words, before letting out a heavy sigh. "Okay. I'll give it a try."
