Summary: "I wanted to save you and I couldn't. Tell me what I have to do to keep you here with me. Don't leave me alone." Uchiha Sasuke has returned to Konoha with ulterior motives. Will Naruto be able to change Sasuke's heart?

A/NBETA'D VERSION! I know I randomly disappear and then reappear. I'm trying to work on that nasty little habit. Even if I disappear for long periods of time, I will always return. I love to write and I vow to finish both stories. It might take me a long time, but I will finish it. Every time I type up a chapter for this story, I get so teary eyed. Naruto's dedication for Sasuke is just beautiful. The things Naruto will do to get Sasuke back are amazing. I mean come on, who would be willing to shoulder someone's hate and die with them. That is a one in a million person. In a way it's like they're an even more twisted type of star crossed lovers or something like that. Maybe star crossed lover's isn't the right term. Well no one can deny that they have a bromance going on even if Sasuke wants to act like a complete and utter jerk. Thank you everyone for the reviews/favorites/alerts. I really hope this chapter is enjoyable. I will update my next fanfiction ASAP. If anyone would like to role play with me, I'm on the site Harp&Bow. [.] I have three characters, two boys and one girl. One boy is Asian and gay, the other is an asexual Caucasian. And last is the girl who is straight. It is loads of fun =] PM me if you join.


Wave after wave of melancholy threatened Naruto's usual collected façade. If he didn't remain strong, he would surely crumble under the pressure of unspeakable sorrow. He inhaled deeply hoping the large gulps of air would be enough to calm his frazzled nerves. Cerulean eyes followed Sasuke as he disappeared into a dark room. Naruto gulped loudly, unwanted memories threatening to destroy his controlled state of mind. At that moment he tried his best to block out the memories…To barricade them; they needn't send his heart to the ledge. With a wordless cry, he failed miserably. Naruto remembered his failures; he was never able to bring Sasuke back. He wasn't able to save him, instead he allowed Sasuke to drown in his hatred. There was no way that he could deny that he was a failure; he couldn't even save his friend. The cold reality set in as Naruto recalled what he had said to Sasuke at their reunion. "A person who doesn't save one of his friends can hardly become Hokage." A look of disdain spread across his face as he realized how absolutely pathetic he must seem to Sasuke. He had worked so hard to become strong to protect the people that he cared about. Yet he couldn't protect Sasuke, the first person to acknowledge him without disgust. Naruto sighed contemplating whether he should enter the room or not.

It seemed like hours had passed and yet Naruto had not moved from the spot where Sasuke had left him. He really couldn't decide whether to enter the room or not. Every time he took a step forward, he would take a step back. Sighing loudly, Naruto collapsed and crossed his legs. It was time to make a decision. He would either leave or enter the room where Sasuke was. Naruto could feel heat rise to his cheeks as he recalled a particular memory. One night he had seen a shooting star, he closed his eyes and hoped with all his might that Sasuke would return to him. Naruto replayed that memory in his mind over and over. Each time it was recalled, his face got hotter. He just couldn't believe that he had done something so embarrassing. It was like he was some love sick Sasuke fan girl. Naruto gagged at the thought, he had no romantic feelings toward Sasuke. None whatsoever! A hotter and darker blush filled his cheeks when he realized that he had to convince himself that he didn't have that type of feelings toward Sasuke. Never once had Naruto thought he was gay! After all he had the biggest crush on Sakura. Naruto shook his head vigorously not wanting to think about liking Sasuke in that way. He only tried so hard to bring Sasuke back because he was his most important friend. Sasuke's bond was extremely important to Naruto and he couldn't allow it to be severed. Naruto pondered whether Sasuke knew that or if he assuming the worst.

Naruto quickly scrambled to his feet as he rethought his ponderings. What if Sasuke didn't know why he always tried so hard to save him? The heat in Naruto's face became unbearable; he thought his face might melt. The last thing that Naruto wanted was Sasuke to think that he liked him in that way. Naruto quickly rushed into the room just to see Sasuke sitting in the center meditating. Without a hint of hesitation, Naruto charged forward. There was less than a foot in between them when Naruto leapt through the air, landing in Sasuke's lap. The contact wasn't too forceful since Sasuke remained upright. Naruto grabbed Sasuke's collar and shook him.

"Sasuke!" Naruto's voice was shrill. Sasuke's eyes snapped open and he stared at Naruto. Not an ounce of emotion was present in his eyes. "Sasuke, I hope you don't think I like you in that way! There is no way in hell I could like someone like you! That would mean I was gay. And I am not gay! I like Sakura, not you. The only reason I tried so hard to save you…" Naruto couldn't make eye contact with Sasuke any longer. His grip on Sasuke's collar loosened and he squirmed around in Sasuke's lap. Naruto had yet to realize that he was sitting in Sasuke's lap and squirming around like a virgin about to perform the deed. He was far too preoccupied with his sorrow. Before beginning to speak again, Naruto lowered his eyes. Silently he hoped that Sasuke wouldn't look at him in utter abhorrence when he was finished speaking. "The only reason I tried so hard to save you was because of the bond that we formed. You were the first person to acknowledge me. You were so cool and I wanted to be like you. That is the reason I made you my rival and my friend. Sasuke, I just didn't want to lose you. Please don't severe your bond with me." Naruto whimpered softly as a single tear fell on his clenched fist. The initial objective was to explain to Sasuke why he tried so hard. It was not to show him weaknesses. Naruto was far too afraid to look up; he didn't want to see the way Sasuke was looking at him. Naruto just sat there shaking; he just couldn't bring himself to move.

A small gasp escaped his lips as he felt cold fingers wrap themselves around his chin. The fingers tightened as they lifted Naruto's head up. Shock filled Naruto's eyes as cerulean met onyx. Even though he had a heart to heart with Sasuke, his eyes were void of emotion. It caused a pang of pain to attack Naruto's heart. That one pang sent him reeling into a sea of depression. Naruto berated himself; he shouldn't have expected Sasuke to react. This was the new Sasuke, a man who didn't seem to hold any other emotion, but hatred. How could he forget the words that haunted his dreams at night?

"Sasuke doesn't even see you. He longs only for his own darkness."

Naruto chuckled at how pathetic he was. Another stray tear fell from his eye as he looked at Sasuke. All the while Sasuke just stared at him, his fingers wrapped around Naruto's chin. The deep blush returned as Sasuke leaned forward. Their lips were barely a centimeter apart. Sasuke's hot breath washed over Naruto's lips causing the smaller male to shiver. Naruto's mind was reeling; he didn't understand what Sasuke was doing. Was he trying to kiss him? That would be absolutely insane! Naruto was one million percent straight, there was no way he would allow Sasuke to kiss him. He wasn't even aware that Sasuke swung that way; he had a trillion fan-girls that would be willing to spread their legs for him. Naruto was beginning to feel light headed. He just couldn't handle the large amount of thoughts swarming around his mind. Even though he had screamed into his mind that was not gay, Naruto hadn't even made an effort to move away. It wasn't as if he was some weakling that couldn't fight Sasuke off. Naruto blamed his dysfunctional mind for not moving.

"Naruto, get off my lap." Naruto turned bright red and scrambled off of Sasuke's lap. He wanted nothing more than to beat himself up. How could he have not realized that he was sitting in Sasuke's lap?

"Was sitting in my lap really that comfortable? It didn't seem like you had any intention of moving." Naruto's eyes widened as he stared at Sasuke. There was no way that the person in front of him could be Sasuke. Naruto bit his lip and stared at the man. The male looked exactly like Sasuke, but there was no way that Sasuke would ever say something so…Flirty. Naruto gulped as he continued to scrutinize the man sitting before him. What if it was some rapist? The likelihood of Naruto being distracted once again was little to none. Naruto charged forward and knocked the imposter down. He sat on the man's hips, hands on his chest, and he glared fiercely at the perverted Sasuke imposter.

"Who are you and why are you pretending to be Sasuke?"
