Hey! Good news! Or not, depends on how you look at it...Any who, I will continue this story, because a lot of you have been asking. But I'm going to need a lot of suggestions because you all put me up to this! Haha, so if I fail we all fail. :P Okay enough joking around here we go:

Disclaimer: I own many things, but not anything as cool as Naruto...Damn.

Oh and this is going to be dedicated to a couple of people:

Their ideas gave me a bit of inspiration (did I spell that right?) and they made this chapter possible.

"Come on Naruto!" Naruto jumped in surprise as his best friend shook him roughly and called out his name. "Damn don't scare me like that!" Naruto shook his head in annoyance at being disturbed. "Well what the hell could be so important that you're not even shoving food into your face? This isn't like you." Shikamaru flinched as he saw his friend's face take on a look of distress. "Naruto?"

"...I'm trying to figure out a plan." "A plan? For what?" Naruto turned away. "Shika, I haven't been for almost two weeks. My dad is going to kill me..." The brunette put his hand gently on the distressed boy's shoulder. "Don't worry, I'll help you, I promise." The blonde shook his head sadly, "that's what Sasuke said when he took me to live with him, but now I am not too sure." "Naruto, it's going to be okay. I'm sure that Sasuke will keep his word, so don't worry." He nodded, "I trust Sasuke. It's my father that I don't trust."

Shikamaru nodded in agreement, "it's going to be fine Naruto, really it is." The blonde fiddled with his fingers nervously, "you really think so?" "I know so. Now get going, Sasuke is probably looking for you." Naruto nodded, "thanks Shika." The brunette watched as his best friend happily made his way back into the school building in search of Sasuke. "Good luck..."

"You okay?" Naruto looked up at the whispered words. Grinning sheepishly, the blonde shifted in his seat, "yea, just fine. Why do you ask?" Sasuke gave him a knowing look, "because you look like something is bothering you. And you keep sighing." "Oh." They sat silently, listening as the teacher drawled on. Naruto could feel himself drifting to sleep when he felt a hand on his shoulder. Turning towards the owner, he could see the look of concern emitting from Sasuke's eyes, "just remember I'm here for you, okay?" He nodded dumbly, this wasn't a side of Sasuke he saw too often. "If anything, I'll kick anyone's ass if they bug you in the slightest way." Sasuke said smugly with a smirk. Now that was the Sasuke he knew and loved.

Loved. Naruto still couldn't believe that he was going out with the most popular boy in the whole school, and possibly in she entire world! It had a two weeks ago when Sasuke confessed his love for him, and immediately after moved in with him. Though Naruto had protested, Sasuke insisted. He couldn't, as he put it, allow Naruto to spend another day in that hell hole that he once called home. Especially since he was still there, lurking around.

The bell rang, signaling the end of another long school day, and snapping Naruto out of his thoughts. Students darted out from the room, as if they would all die if they didn't make it out of the school in two minutes. "You ready?" Naruto smiled at Sasuke's extended hand before getting it in his own. "Yea." The two walked out of the classroom and towards their lockers, beginning a routine that had been created two weeks ago.

"Naruto?" "Hm?" The blonde responded as he debated which books he should take and which to leave. He could always just BS the homework. "Your...your father." Sasuke frown deepened as he saw Naruto flinch. "Was his abuse only physical?" He could see Naruto stiffen slightly, "what do you mean?" "You know, did his abuse only involve hitting you?" Sasuke felt his heart twist as Naruto looked at him with painful eyes. "Sasuke, there's something I have to tell you...but promise me you won't leave me."

Sasuke could see fear and pain swirl in his lover's eyes, and unshed tears that threatened to spill if the wrong thing was said. "Naruto, I promise, with my very being, that I will never leave you." Naruto nodded slowly, satisfied with the response. "Sasuke...he didn't just hit me, he-" "Naruto Uzamaki?"

The blonde looked at the person who called his name. "Yes." He answered a tall teacher, possibly in her mid thirties. "There is a bit of a problem, so you need to report to the principal's office now." Fear rose in Naruto, but he managed a nod. "Okay." Sasuke put a reassuring hand on the nervous blonde's shoulder, "I'll wait here for you." Again the blonde nodded before making his way to the office.

'What could be the problem?' He thought to himself. Reaching the office, he stepped cautiously inside. "Hello?" "In here Uzamaki!" A voice called out sternly from the back office room, a voice that Naruto could guess belonged to the principal Tsunade. Walking into the office, Naruto nearly darted back out, and would have if three sets of eyes hadn't kept him glued to that spot. The eyes belonged to principal Tsunade, a big fat cop that Naruto didn't know, and him.

That damn man, his so called father. "Sit down ." Tsunade gestured towards the only empty chair, right next to his father. He cautiously moved to the chair and sat slowly and as far as he could from that damn man. "I'm sure you know what this is about, right Naruto?" The cop asked firmly. Before he could answer, Tsunade answered for him. "Running away from home, isn't that just a wonderful coincidence when you are being accused-" "I think that can wait for later, principal Tsunade, right?" The cop warned, and Tsunade nodded immediately. "Of course. Naruto." She turned back towards the nervous blonde. "Do you have any idea what an idiotic decision you have just made?"

Not waiting for a response from the flustered blonde, she continued, "First you do all these pranks in class, always disrupting the teacher, and now this? This school's staff are not babysitters for you, we are highly respected members of society and expected to be treated as such. No ifs, ands, ors, or buts." These people weren't even giving him a chance to explain his side of the story! "I only ran away because this asshole is dangerous!" Naruto protested loudly, trying to defend himself. "Uzamaki! Do not speak so ill mannered about your father." He couldn't believe it, two weeks ago Tsunade was being sympathetic towards his position, but now...now he was the criminal?

"You don't understand! He-" "That's enough Uzamaki." The cop interrupted, "I think it's time you go home with your father now." Eyes widening, he looked at the man who was his father, a smirk forming on the bastard's smug face.

"Uchiha!" Sasuke looked up at that sound of his name. "What is it?" He sighed as Naruto's best friend, Shikamaru hurried towards him. The first time he had met him, the brunette gave him a long lecherous lecture on how important Naruto was, and if he did anything to upset him, he wouldn't live to see the next day, As if he, Sasuke Uchiha would do anything to hurt his blonde, it was absolutely unheard of.

"Uchiha, you have to come with me. Quick!" There was a tone of urgency in the flustered boy's voice and it made Sasuke feel uneasy. "What is it?" He repeated impatiently. "We don't have time for this, come on!" The brunette pulled his arm, fear in his eyes. "Okay, okay." He sighed hoping Naruto wouldn't think he just ditched him.

Shikamaru pulled him down the halls in desperation, practically dragging the obsidian boy much to his annoyance. "Are you going to tell me where we're going?" Sasuke growled, patience long gone. Before the other could answer, they passed principal Tsunade. Sasuke pulled away from Shika's hold and turned towards Tsunade, "wait! Aren't you supposed to be with Naruto?"

Tsunade turned to face the owner of the sudden outburst. " has left. I suggest you do the same." "Left? When?" Sasuke asked, anxiety filling his head. "Just a few moments ago with his-" "With his father." Shikamaru finished. Tsunade nodded to confirm this, before walking away. "That's what I was trying to tell you." Sasuke could see desperation in the boy's eyes. "Well why the hell didn't you say it outloud instead of dragging me like a maniac!" Anger seeped through his body, "where the hell do they live?"

Shikamaru stayed silent. "Where. Do. They. Live?" Sasuke said coldly. "I-I don't know." "How do you not know where your best friend lives!" Shikamaru flinched. "He would never tell me. I've asked before, but he said that things would be easier if I didn't know." Sasuke growled indignantly, "well things are sure as hell not easier right now."

"What do we do?" Shikamaru murmured. Sasuke rubbed his temples in exhaustion, "we go find him, what else?"

Yea...sorry it's so short, but the suggestions only gave me enough mojo for this information for now. I kind of have an idea for the next chapter, but give me some suggestions that are leading up to these big events. Thanks again to those who gave me the suggestions! (Look in above notes for names).

Oh quick note: I no longer have any typing program, so I have to type my story installments using a more...primitive method...Haha, anyways, if there are a lot of mistakes, sorry because this program doesn't no any more about spelling anymore than I do...

Well that's it for now. Please feel free to email me any suggestions for any story or just to talk. Email is on my profile. Till next time!
