Sasuke stared at him, he positively hated when Kyuubi called him that.

He knew that he couldn't over-power the physically stronger boy by using brute force. Instead he did the only thing he knew could make Kyuubi go away.

He kissed him.

And he kissed him until he could feel his tense body relax. He kissed him a bit more just to be on the safe side.

When they both pulled back Sasuke met Naruto's usual bright azure eyes and his trade-mark smile.

As realisation dawned upon him, the smile disappeared from Naruto's face and was replaced with worry, and a bit of shame.

"What happened? What did I do?"

Sasuke quickly turned him away from the heap of nurses that had gathered around the fainted Gaara.

"Oh nothing…" Sasuke answered with the closest he would ever get to a smile.

Naruto nodded and the big grin appeared on his face once more and they both went back to their table and sat down.

Naruto had come to the hospital long before Sasuke had. When he was eight, he had been found half-dead in his room. His wrists were slit, but when his mother, who had found him, asked him what had happened he just chuckled insanely.

Later, when he awoke at the hospital, he had no memory of the incident, except the voice he had heard before it all went black.

That was the first time Kyuubi had managed to break out, but he had tried to kill Naruto several times after that, obviously he had failed every time.

After getting Sasuke as a room mate (Kyuubi had managed to drive the last four insane, well, more insane) Kyuubi had had a harder time to take over Naruto.

Possessively Sasuke grabbed Naruto's hand and ran a hand over the scars, as if he was hoping that they would disappear. He hated the look on Naruto's face he got every time Naruto had "let" Kyuubi out, Sasuke just wished he could make everything alright.

Naruto looked up and met Sasuke's dark look, suddenly smiling.

"I know what we can do…" he said suggestively.

Sasuke knew exactly what he meant and sighed heavily. He did not want to do this now.

"Hn" he answered, with what would have been a whine if he wasn't an Uchiha, because Uchihas don't whine. The only reason he would do this was that Naruto needed cheering up.

"Yay!!" Naruto practically screamed as he pulled Sasuke in to their room.

They sat down by the only table in the room and Naruto pulled out some memory-cards (A/N: What where you thinking of?). Sasuke had never understood the fun in the game, so it was only on rare occasions that he played it with Naruto. The fact that he hated the game had nothing to do with him never winning. Not at all.

As the game continued Sasuke noticed that Naruto wasn't acting like his old overly energetic self that yelled with joy every time it was his turn. At first he though it had to do with the earlier incident, but when he actually started winning he understood that something was gravely wrong.

"Naruto?" He asked carefully.

"I'm fine" he answered with an all to strained smile. He didn't even look up from the cards.

Now Sasuke had gotten seriously worried, and said the probably longest sentenced he had formed since he was twelve.

" Naruto, you're seriously scaring me. Stop being a dobe and tell me what's wrong."

Only then did Naruto look up, and cerulean eyes met black.

"Everything's just perfect kitty –cat."

Then he collapsed.

In his hand there lay a bloody knife. From his left thigh the blood ran down his already blood covered legs.

Sasuke screamed.

And he screamed until the nurses came rushing in, but even then he didn't stop. Everything around him started spinning, everything except Naruto's still body. He could only hear parts of the nurses hectic conversations.

"…the artery is ripped completely…"

"…Sasuke could have stopped…"

Sasuke sat there and screamed in a corner, until he noticed that he had been left alone. Completely alone again.

He walked over the the large pool of blood and dipped his fingers in the red fluid, it was still warm.

He looked over at the open window. There sat a young boy, just about Sasuke's age, with blond, spiky hair, tanned skin and a smile spread across his entire face. He sat there with his feet dangling out of the window.

"Hi Sasuke-teme." he said with an ever so happy voice. "Are you just going to sit there in my pool of blood, or will you come over here with me?"

Sasuke almost skipped over to Naruto and seated himself next to him. He took Naruto's hand and looked down at the passing traffic beneath.

"Do you know you scared the shit out of me?" he said seriously.

"Sorry…" Naruto said ashamed.

The wind played with their hair and the chill winter air made them shiver, so they held each other tightly.

There they sat, watching the world and the snow that had just begun to fall.

Then they flew away.

Shortly after, Sasuke's body was found lying on the ground by the large, grey building.

His bloody face was covered with a smile.
