3 days later.

Orochimaru was mad, no that was an understatement, he was livid. It was rare, something not seen amongst many people, but this was a special occasion.

"So, tell me… why isn't the boy here?" He tapped his fingers, waiting to attack the first person who dared make a mistake in front of him.

"We were discovered. We have yet to discovered how they figured they were being spied but we suspected that they-"

"I don't care how they figured it out you imbeciles. I wanted the boy and you failed. You fucking failed. As a matter of fact," He took out a gun and gently pressed it against Sasori's head. "I should blow your head off."

"It was just a mistake. Give us another chance." The red head replied calmly.

Orochimaru paused, analyzing the situation carefully. "Where's Kabuto?" He wondered, callously forcing down the gun against Sasori's head even harder.

Sasori almost flinched at the foreign sensation. "He currently resides in the HQ's infirmary, shot, and won't be available for a period of time."

"Incompetent idiot," He whispered, angry. "Alright I'll give a chance. I'll give you a month to get the boy. Itachi Uchiha will be an added bonus. This time you'll be in charge. I don't want mistakes. Got it?"

Sasori nodded.

"Excellent. Oh, before you leave…" He went into his desk and took out an envelope. The small leer didn't bypass anyone. "Give this to Kyuubi. I'm sure he'll appreciate it."

1 week later:

Sasuke sat in the kitchen, thinking. It was all he could really do these past few days. His eyes brows twitched, irked beyond believe.

Surely, Naruto knew people needed fresh air. But apparently the Idiot thought he was some kind of alien or criminal. He bit into his tomato harshly glaring death into Naruto's skull.

Tch, Naruto didn't even flinch.

"That's it!" He threw the tomato he was eating at the poor unsuspecting blond. Naruto shrieked, although he would never admit it. "I'm tired of doing nothing Uzumaki. Why am I stuck here?"

Naruto glared, wiping the excess juice off his head.

"Do you kidnap often? You seem to be good at it."

Naruto opened his mouth to respond, "Sasuke, you need to understand-"

"Understand? I don't understand anything." Sasuke sighed. The past few days weren't relaxing like he'd been hoping they would.

He was being targeted more often than not by strange people. Naruto insisted that they were pure coincidence and that he was just being paranoid, that is, until he got stabbed in the leg by some red-head. He was now rendered useless in a wheelchair.

He suspected, no, he knew the blond had something to do with it and it fucking hurt because he knew Naruto didn't trust him if anything.

"Sasuke, please," Naruto went up to him and kneeled down to his temporally height. "I really want to tell you, but he ordered me not to."

Sasuke wanted to stand up and kick Naruto's head, but he smirked at the small information given to him and asked with every smug pride he had, "Who?"

Naruto mentally face palmed himself. "Well, um, what?"

'Well, um, what?' that could have been the worse back up ever. He cursed for being such an idiot. He also cursed for being stuck with such a smart, smug and arrogant, pretty boy.

"So someone ordered my protection?" Sasuke continued. "And it's a 'he'. Who would want to protect me?"

"Sasuke drop it." Sasuke hugged himself, scoffing like a 5 year old, to the blonde's amusement. "I mean it. I'm not going to answer any of them."

"I'm not dropping anything until you…" He poked Naruto's chest, lingering longer than he should have. "Tell me what's going on." He gently touched his finger, secretly embarrassed.

Naruto shivered. He really like the way he did that. "Sorry Sasuke can't do that."

"Naruto, tell-"

Sasuke stared in surprise, his mind going haywire. Did Naruto just crash their lips together? After a long pause Naruto dared to bit his lips. Sasuke gasped, earning a muffled chuckle from the blond and a very hot and deliciously tongue.

Naruto pulled away, breathless, a string of saliva connected both of them. "Sasuke shut up."

And Sasuke did when he grabbed a fist full of Naruto's hair and gently pulled the blond into another kiss.

Shikamaru searched though his pocked, and grabbed his lighter.

"Smoking is bad. You should stop if you know it's bad."

Shikamaru head snapped towards the sugary voice, heart beating. "And who are you?" He asked. It was night so he couldn't see the girl perfectly.

"It really doesn't matter. I just came to deliver something, sweetie." The girl answered, teasing.

Shikamaru eye brow rose. He didn't trust this bitch at all. She was from the Akatsuki, he thought. If "Go ahead. Don't come any closer though."

The girl shrugged."You're no fun. Oh, well. Catch." She gently tossed an envelope and walked away. "It's for Kyuubi."

Shikamaru caught it easily with his left hand. "How do I know it's not just a bomb?" He asked, glancing down the yellow envelope.

She slowed down, but kept on walking. "You would've been dead by now, blown into tiny pieces."

Shikamaru shivered at the thought. "Right," He said, created a small gust of smolder. "How troublesome," He trailed off.

By the time he finished he was already inside the building, opening the envelope. Did they think he was stupid? Anything that came directly from the Akatsuki had a chance of being bad news.

It was a thumb drive, a DVD and a letter. He wondered through everything thoroughly and took out his phone.

He waited.

And he waited more.

He sighed, Naruto wasn't picking up.

He left a message before closing his phone. "Tomorrow," He whispered to himself as locked the door to his dorm.

"Hey," Choji greeted upon entering. "Want some?" He held a bag of ships.

Shikamaru kindly refused. He sat on his bed and yawed. He looked to his side and groaned at the piles and piles of work.

Chonju laughed, "Good luck with all your homework!"

"Troublesome," he said as an afterthought.

Note: Yes, I'm aware that it's not as long as the others, but the next chapter will be at least three times as long as this one.

Also Note: I had to put this chapter for the sake of the story. The Naruto and Sasuke scene was just a bonus.

Review and Revise.
