The Past to the present.

It became more obvious to Gaara that Sasuke had another reason to come back. Atleast to him, saying sorry and coming back into people's lives was much more troublesome without motivation of some kind and he intended to be certain that Sasuke didn't endanger Naruto in any way. He made a hot bowl of Ramen around the time he felt Naruto would wake. He was sure it didn't taste very good, but Naruto always ate it with a smile.

"So when did you come to live in Konoha?" Sasuke asked from a small table where he'd slept not a bit. "After the death of Neji. Naruto and I had already become friends I guess. He took alot of dangerous missions and was constantly in danger. One day I just visited him here and he needed me. So I did what I thought was best."

Flashback

Gaara found Naruto crumpled on the floor of this small apartment. It was obvious, Naruto's saddness wreathed the room in a dank and cold feeling. Gaara still wasn't good with feelings even though Naruto had spent many hours with him, teaching him about all the different feelings. His heart was too dead. Too covered in scars. It was strange to Gaara however, that seeing Naruto crumpled on the floor crying would cause an all too familiar pain in his chest.

"Naruto, please do not cry." He said, kneeling down in front of Naruto and placing a hand on his tear stained cheek. Naruto's eyes snapped open at first in fear than at pure shock that someone was there. Once he saw who it was the crying started again but softer now. Naruto had sat up and was now drapped across the chest of Gaara, who did his best to cope with this confusing situation. 'Maybe this is that hug thing he was talking about.' He thought as Naruto began to relax slightly obviously tired by his crying.

"Naruto, don't worry, you are not alone anymore." Said Gaara softly, placing a hand on Naruto's back. "I'm Here." Naruto seemed to grasp tighter. "Gaara, do you love me?" The boy asked softly. Gaara was very unsure of what to say, so he went with the truth. "I don't know." He said softly. I don't think I know what that is. Naruto's right hand slowly moved to Gaara's cheek. "It's like this." And without warning, Naruto placed his lips over Gaara's and pressed softly.

It had been just one of several moments that had led to them being together. Ino and Sakura had arranged to have things hushed when he moved in. They both had taken to being caretakers for Naruto and took an active role in brigging both he and Naruto together. He didn't think much of them, but Naruto liked them and that was good enough he supposed.

He finished the bowl of ramen and realized he had forgoten Sasuke. He set the bowl of hot ramen down and started to make another.

"You don't have to do that." Sasuke interjected. "I wonder if you might do something else though." Gaara turned his head from the oven and looked at Sasuke.

"Last night in the woods, how did you sense me?" Gaara grined. Sasuke looked away. "I learned many things while with Orochimaru. One thing was how to disguise my movement better." Gaara breathed and chuckled. "My sand recognized your blood. The spirt inside it warned me." I'm quite sure without the sand I would have been as blind to you as Naruto. Though, I wouldn't be suprised if Naruto missed you because he was too tired to pay attetion."

As if on cue, Naruto began to stir at first. 'Here we go' both boys thought as they watched the blonde awaken. Naruto yawned and fidgeted with the sheets which were now a mess of twists and folds. It had been another tough night. Naruto checked over his wounds, still not having looked around. "Gaara, it smells nice." He said as he continued his body tests. "I'm sorry for not listening to you last night." He said as he put his pants on. Sasuke was dead quiet.

"So is the village oooooooo.....SASUKE!" 'Here we go' thought Gaara. He just hoped no one would hear any of this. Naruto was frozen, face and all. It had to be a dream, this wasn't real. It was too sad. His mind couldn't grasp it. He wanted to run at Sasuke, arms outstrech and tears flowing, but he'd dreamed this so many more times than he wanted anyone to know. After several seconds of silence, Sasuke was the first to speak. "It is me Naruto." Naruto felt the stinging at his eyes, but he refused to move. He watched as Sasuke got up and walked across the room toward him.

Without so much as a blink in time Naruto lept from the bed and slammed his fist into the side of Sasuke's face. "You're not real." Naruto growled very low and angry. Gaara figured he should intervene, but seeing Sasuke get smacked was awful funny. "Naruto, I assure you, he is really here." Gaara said softly. Naruto froze again. Both boys caught the other's eye as Naruto stared in disbelief. Sasuke's eyes filled with hope.

Naruto broke down, his tears weren't happy or sad, they were very angry and anguished and hurt. "Why did you...why did you....you...I am so stupid." He bowed his head and tears were streaming now and his body began to shake. 'I'll give him a minute' Gaara thought. 'Then he's gone.' He watched them, but figured after a moment that he should be out of the way, he left for the balcony.

"No Naruto, I am the stupid one." Naruto wasn't listening and had Sasuke not expected it, the flurry of punches, Naruto might have injured him. "Will it make you less angry if I let you hit me?" His voice resigned and soft. Naruto stopped his attack and blinked. He didn't even consider the consequences of his actions. Sasuke now had a crying naruto wrapped around him. "Stop it, you're ruining my shirt he said softly to Naruto. It just made the boy clutch harder.

"Why did you leave?" Am I not your friend?" "You do not care for me?" Those questions traveled with Sasuke for two years as he sought power from Orochimaru. "Naruto, I'm sorry." Sasuke said softly. Naruto sniffled. "I don't care!" he said bitterly "Really? Then why are you hugging me?" Naruto blushed. "Because I thought you were dead. You made me break a promise to Sakura." Sasuke sighed. He had alot to answer for and after seeing those dark ninja, he'd have to move fast.

End chapter 2

A/N: Alot to talk about here. first I wanna explain that I am unfamiliar with the Manga so this is purely based off the raw Japanese anime show Naruto. Second It takes place a year and a half after Neji's death.
I wanted to thank Starletz for the lengthy review. I hope you have more advice I'd like to make this story very enjoyable to those who read as well as fun to write. Chapter 3 is going to explain how Sasuke has survived the last two years on his own.
