DISCLAIMER: I don't own Naruto.


Konoha General was the small hospital of the small mountain town of Konoha. Despite being understaffed and underfunded, the hospital was extremely successful. The few they had on staff were all brilliant doctors or nurses who grew up in Konoha so they didn't mind working for substantially less than they would have made in a larger city. However, sometimes Sasuke wondered if he made the right decision.

"Sasuke-chan." Naruto called as he waved at the raven haired surgeon. Sasuke sighed when he saw the blonde man. It wasn't like he could ignore him now that he's yelled his name across the entire cafeteria so that everyone snickered under their breath at him. Sasuke paid for his food and glared at the blonde man as he went and sat at the table next to his. "Aw, don't be like that, Sasuke-chan." Naruto pouted, pretending to be upset.

"What do you want, Uzumaki?" Sasuke snapped.

"Other than you?" Naruto smirked.

"Don't make me lose my appetite, loser." Sasuke grimaced.

"Sasuke-kun." Sakura smiled as she sat at his table. Sasuke sighed as he turned his attention from the blonde annoyance to the pink one.

"Good afternoon, Sakura." He said flatly.

"Is Naruto bothering you again? He is so annoying." Sakura scoffed.

"I'm right here, you know." Naruto snapped at her but she ignored him.

"So, Sasuke, tonight everyone was going to get together for drinks. Do you plan on going?" She asked, batting her eyelashes at him.

"I'm not interested, Sakura." Sasuke sighed.

"Come on, Sasuke-kun, you never come out. You can't be anti-social all the time." Sakura whined.

"I already have plans." He told her.

"But, Sasuke-kun," Sakura started.

"I have to get back to work." He said as he got up and walked off, dumping the untouched food on his tray into the nearest trashcan. Sometimes he really hated working at the hospital because it was basically a high school reunion. Most of the staff members had all gone to school together and by coincidence (although occasionally Sasuke had to wonder if it really was coincidence) they had all chosen a profession in medicine. He sighed as he went into the OR.

"Dr. Uchiha." Tenten smiled. "You're just in time. We were just prepping Mr. Smith for his surgery." She said. Sasuke nodded and went to prepare for the surgery as well.

"Hey." Naruto smiled as he leaned on the door to the prep room.

"What do you want?" Sasuke snapped as he started tying his hair back. His hair band broke and the rubber band flung across the room. "Shit." Sasuke growled as he searched his pockets for another hair band but couldn't seem to find one.

"Oh," Naruto smiled as he reached out his arm. Sasuke could see about ten hair ties on his wrist. "Sorry they're pink, but you can use one." He smiled as he handed Sasuke one of the hair bands.

"Thanks." Sasuke nodded as he pulled his hair back. "What do you want anyway?" He asked as he started washing his hands. Naruto held up a plastic wrapped sandwich from the cafeteria.

"You didn't eat lunch today." He smiled as he set the sandwich on one of the chairs in the room. "We can't have our number one surgeon skipping meals; you gotta keep your strength up." He said as he left. Sasuke rolled his eyes, choosing to ignore Naruto as he went into surgery. The surgery was easily completed. The nurses and attendants took the patient back to his room and Sasuke cleaned himself up. When he went back through the prep room he saw the sandwich still sitting there. He was going to leave it there until his stomach growled. With a sigh he opened the sandwich and began eating. He went to the children's wing where Naruto worked as a nurse. It was easy to find him, just follow the giggles. He found Naruto in a room with three of the little girls having their afternoon snack.

"Do I have something on my face?" Naruto asked as the three girls giggled. He had a large dot of icing from his cupcake on the tip of his nose.

"Right there." One of the girls laughed while pointing to his nose. Naruto crossed his eyes and made a goofy face causing the three girls to giggle more.

"Uzumaki." Sasuke snapped from the doorway. The three girls gasped and Naruto sighed and wiped his nose off.

"I have to go talk with him. I'll be back later." He smiled and waved at them as he got up.

"Bye Naruto-kun." The three girls called. Naruto stepped out of the room and followed Sasuke to the nurse's station.

"What do you need, Sasuke-chan?" Naruto smiled.

"I wanted to pay you back for the sandwich." Sasuke said as he pulled out a few bills. Naruto smirked and wrapped his arm around Sasuke to grope his ass.

"Aw, Sasuke-chan, I don't need money." Naruto said hotly against Sasuke's ear. Sasuke shivered (but he would swear it was a disgusted shudder) as Naruto's breath fanned against his neck and pushed the blonde away.

"Seriously, Naruto." He snapped.

"Look, Sasuke, it's not a big deal." Naruto smiled and pat his shoulder. Sasuke sighed, he knew that Naruto had had that sandwich made special for him and it had probably cost a little extra.

"Naruto-kun, Dr. Uchiha." Hinata said softly from the nurse's station.

"Yes?" The both asked.

"Um, Angelina has woken up. Naruto, you need to give her her medicine and Dr. Uchiha you need to check on her wounds." Hinata told them. Sasuke nodded and Naruto smiled.

"Thanks, Hinata-chan." He said as they walked towards Angelina's bedroom. She was a long-term patient. She had been in a bad car accident with her parents, because she wasn't wearing a seat belt she had ended up with most of her bones broken and was badly burned on the left side of her body. But, like all the children in the children's wing, Naruto took special care of her and she was healing quickly. "Hey, beautiful." Naruto smiled when he came into the room.

"Naruto." Angelina smiled.

"How are you feeling this afternoon?" He asked as he sat her bed upright.

"I'm okay." She told him.

"You're looking much better." He smiled. She smiled as well and inwardly Sasuke scoffed. The whole left side of Angelina's head had gotten 3rd and 4th degree burns and Angelina knew what she looked like but somehow when Naruto called her beautiful she believed him. Naruto had always had a charm that put people at ease and it annoyed the hell out of Sasuke. Angelina saw Sasuke and frowned.

"Dr. Uchiha." She said softly. Naruto smiled and pit his hand on her head.

"He's not that scary." He comforted her. Angelina put her hand on top of his and held it there while Sasuke examined her burn wounds.

"The burns are healing very well. We're going to have to schedule an X-ray to see how your bones are healing." He told her.

"Make it for later this afternoon. I want to be there and I'm off tomorrow." Naruto told him. Sasuke sighed and nodded as he wrote it down on her chart before leaving. "Oh, I got something for you." Naruto smiled at her as he dug in his pockets. He pulled out a small keychain with a pink plastic crystal heart and a hot pink flower that had a pink LED light in it. Angelina smiled as he gave it to her.

"Thank you, Naruto." She smiled brightly.

"No problem, beautiful." He smiled. "Be a good girl, I've got to go." He told her as he left. Sasuke was waiting for him outside.

"I scheduled her X-ray at 3:00." He told the blonde.

"Excellent." Naruto smiled. He was about to say something when they heard the whimpering of a small child down the hall. Naruto looked to see one of the boys walking down the hall with tears in his eyes. "Taka-kun, what are you doing out of your room?" Naruto asked gently. The boy started bawling.

"Na-to-nii I cannot find Pookie and I cannot sleep without Pookie." The small boy sobbed. Naruto smiled gently and put his hand on Taka's head. Taka almost immediately calmed down, his lips were quivering and he was hiccupping but he was no longer crying. Sasuke glared.

"Don't worry, Taka-kun. We'll find Pookie for you." Naruto smiled as he picked the boy up. Taka clung to Naruto, pressing his face into Naruto's chest and probably getting tears and snot all over his scrubs. He carried the crying boy to the nurse's station.

"Naruto? Taka-kun? What's wrong?" Hinata asked.

"Taka-kun had lost Pookie." Naruto told her.

"He's not in this lost and found, but I'll email everyone in the hospital to keep their eyes open." Hinata smiled.

"What if he's lost forever?" Taka started bawling again. Naruto smiled and wiped Taka's tears, trying to calm the young boy.

"If we can't find him, I'll buy you a new Pookie. How does that sound?" Naruto said. Taka calmed down again and nodded. "Okay, let's get you back to your room." He smiled while carrying the boy back towards his room.

"Dr. Uchiha, if you keep scowling like that you'll scare the children." Hinata told him.

"How can you stand working with that loser?" Sasuke asked.

"Naruto-kun? He's amazing at what he does. The children love him." Hinata smiled.

"Hn. Just remind the dobe Angelina's X-ray is at 3." He said as he walked off. Sasuke didn't necessarily hate Naruto, but the blonde man annoyed him to no end. He'd always been like that, with just a smile and a few words he could charm anyone. What pissed him off the most was when he let Naruto charm him. His stupid smile that made you let your guard down, his stupid bright blue eyes that held you captivated, his stupid warm hands that made you feel safe. It all annoyed Sasuke. Sasuke finished his shift around 2:30 and went to the locker room. He took a quick shower and changed back into his normal clothes and gathered his things. As he was leaving he saw there was a teddy bear in the lost and found box. Against his better judgment he picked the bear up and headed to the children's wing.

"Sasuke-chan." Naruto smiled when he saw the raven haired surgeon.

"I found this bear." Sasuke mumbled as he held up the bear.

"You found Pookie." Naruto smiled brightly.

"It was in the men's locker room." Sasuke told him. He felt a small sense of accomplishment when Naruto happily took the bear from him, but he quickly told himself he was stupid for feeling that way because finding a bear was nothing to feel accomplished about when he saved lives every day.

"You're amazing, Sasuke-chan." Naruto smiled and kissed Sasuke quickly before the raven could do anything about it. Sasuke growled under his breath as Naruto ran off to give Taka his teddy bear. Of course when Naruto got back he found a very angry Sasuke waiting for him.

"What the hell was that?" He snapped.

"You know you liked it." Naruto smirked as he wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

"Fuck you, loser. What have I told you about touching me? I really will turn you into Tsunade next time. I don't care if you are her grandson, you won't get off easily for sexual harassment." Sasuke snapped at him. Naruto laughed softly and leaned in close to Sasuke.

"You really want to turn me in?" He smirked. Sasuke couldn't tell if it was Naruto coming on to him or threatening him. But being that Sasuke wasn't one to back down, he squared his shoulders and glared at the blonde. The two stood there glaring at each other for at least a minute or two.

"Naruto-kun." Hinata called. Naruto blinked and smiled at the cute nurse.

"Isn't your shift over?" Naruto asked as he started walking backwards towards the nurse's station.

"Just wanted to drop that bear off." Sasuke nodded.

"Stick around, after Angelina's X-ray I'm off. We should go get coffee." Naruto smiled. Sasuke narrowed his eyes at Naruto but nodded anyway. Naruto smiled just as Angelina's bed was brought out.

"Wait, where's Naruto?" She gasped as the attendants began to wheel her down the hall.

"I'm right here, beautiful." Naruto smiled as he took her hand.

"You won't leave, right?" She asked.

"No way." He smiled and shook his head. Angelina looked relieved and squeezed his hand. They all went to the X-Ray lab, with Sasuke following them. Naruto put on a led vest to protect him from the X-Rays and went into the room to hold Angelina's hand. Sasuke watched from the control room as Naruto easily calmed the girl down as the machines made loud noises. Sasuke had a flashback to something he didn't want to remember and had to step out of the room.

"Dr. Uchiha?" Neji asked slightly surprised to see the raven nearly an hour after his shift had ended.

"Dr. Hyuuga." Sasuke nodded at him

"What are you still doing here?" Neji asked.

"Just wanted to make sure Angelina's X-rays went well." Sasuke pointed to the lab. Neji nodded.

"How are her burns?" Neji asked.

"She'll need skin grafts, but they're healing very well." Sasuke told him. Neji nodded.

"That's good to hear. I know how sensitive you and Naruto are to burn victims. You think that's why Naruto goes out of his way for her?" Neji asked. Sasuke glared at him. "Forget I said anything." He said apologetically. "I'll see you around." He waved and walked away. Sasuke felt a knot in his stomach.

"Shit." He sighed as he went to the bathroom to wash his face off. When he got out, Angelina's X-rays were already finished. Sasuke quickly went to the children's wing but Hinata told him that Naruto had just gone to the locker room. Sasuke ran to the locker room to find Naruto slowly changing, he had a sad look in his eyes but when he saw Sasuke the sadness was replaced with relief.

"I thought you'd already left." He said softly.

"Just went to the bathroom." Sasuke said calmly. Naruto laughed.

"What? The X-ray make you feel queasy?" He smiled.

"How's Sora?" Sasuke asked softly. Naruto's smile fell as he looked at Sasuke for a few seconds.

"Fine." Naruto said in a slightly clipped tone. "Actually, speaking of Sora, he had just called me and since I thought you had already left I told him I was on my way back. So I can't go get coffee with you now." Naruto lied but Sasuke didn't call him on it.

"Okay. Some other day then." He nodded as he left. Sasuke, Sora and Naruto had been best friends in elementary school until the accident. They had all been at Sasuke's house and decided to make something fried to eat (none of them could remember now). They had fried their food and after frying Sasuke, for some reason long forgotten, decided to pour the burning hot oil into a glass container. The glass shattered, the glass hit Naruto's face and the oil in the glass hit Sasuke's leg. When the oil hit Sasuke's leg, Sasuke threw the pot holding the rest of the burning hot liquid and it landed on Sora's back. After that incident Sasuke felt so guilty he couldn't speak to Naruto or Sora, for 14 years. (and that was only because he happened to start working with Naruto, he had yet to speak to Sora) Naruto on the other hand had stuck by Sora the whole time. In high school, when the other students started saying terrible things about Sora's burns, Sora had tried to kill himself and now lived under Naruto's constant supervision. To this day, Sasuke still felt guilty about it.

Naruto sighed heavily as he tried to shake the memories out of his head. He quickly left the hospital, waving at everyone as he left before getting in his car and heading home. The drive wasn't very long considering everything in Konoha was within walking distance, but Naruto hadn't felt like walking the previous day when his shift started. Naruto was exhausted as he pulled into the parking lot of his apartment complex. He sighed when he saw his brother's car was there. Slowly he climbed the stairs to his apartment where he saw Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon standing at attention.

"What are you guys doing?" Naruto sighed tiredly.

"Oh, boss!" Konohamaru gasped. "Kyuubi-nii paid us all 20 dollars to make sure that no one came in until he said so. So you can't go in." He said as they all held out their arms in an attempt to barricade his front door. Naruto sighed and easily moved the five year olds out of the way. "But you can't go in." Konohamaru said, pulling on Naruto's shirt.

"Not even to get you some candy?" Naruto asked. The three children's eyes widened slightly. Being that they were five, the concept of candy overruled their concept of money.

"Let him go, Konohamaru. I want chocolate." Moegi said pulling Konohamaru away from Naruto.

"Me too." Udon agreed. Naruto laughed softly.

"You three wait right here. I'll be right back." He smiled before going inside. He walked in just in time to see Sora and Kyuubi finishing their nth round of sex on his couch. "Kyuu-nii, will you please stop paying the kids in my building to guard the door?" He sighed as he walked through the living room to go to his bedroom.

"I don't even see why I try, they always let you in anyway." Kyuubi sighed as he and Sora slowly got up from the couch.

"Why are you here anyway?" Naruto sighed as he came back into the living room.

"My Sora gets lonely when you're not here, baby bro. I just came over to keep him company." Kyuubi smirked as he wrapped his arms around Sora.

"And to have sex on my couch?" Naruto raised an eyebrow.

"At least we stopped having sex on your bed." Kyuubi pointed out.

"If you want to keep Sora company, why don't you do it at your own apartment?" Naruto sighed as he went into the kitchen to grab candy for the kids.

"We were at my apartment, and then we came back here to greet you when you got home, but them we got bored while waiting." Kyuubi explained.

"It was all Kyuubi's fault, Naruto." Sora told him.

"I have no doubt about that." Naruto said as he went back to the front door to give the kids their candy.

"Thanks, Boss." They all saluted him before running off.

"I still don't understand how you buy them off with candy every time." Kyuubi sighed.

"Because to five year olds, a piece of paper with numbers on it is worth nothing compared to a piece of candy." Naruto smiled.

"Speaking of paper with numbers," Kyuubi said as he pulled out his wallet and started counting 100s.

"I don't need your money, Kyu-nii." Naruto shook his head.

"Naruto, I know you spend more money on those kids than you actually have. Who do you think is paying off your credit cards when you go over your limit? Spend your money on the kids and spend my money on yourself if you don't want to spend dirty money on children." Kyuubi said. Naruto sighed and glared at Kyuubi.

"I'll take it, Kyuubi. I'll make sure it's spent on him." Sora smiled as he took the wad of cash Kyuubi was presenting him.

"Yeah." Kyuubi nodded and sighed. "Naru, I'm just trying to look out for you."

"I know." Naruto sighed as well.

"I really have to go. I'll see you two later." Kyuubi smiled as he gave Sora a quick kiss and then kissed Naruto's head before leaving. "Sora, make sure that money is spent on Naruto. I don't care if it's to pay utilities or if you just go to a strip club to use it." Kyuubi called as he left.

"Okay." Sora smiled. Naruto sighed heavily when the door was shut. "Tired?" Sora smiled. Naruto nodded.

"I'm gonna go to sleep." He said. He went into his bedroom and changed into a pair of sweat pants and a tank top before lying down in bed. Sora had come in to use the shower. After Sora was finished with his shower he crawled into bed with Naruto. "Why do you always sleep with me when you really want to be in Kyuubi's bed?"

"Because if I wasn't here then you'd find another bed partner, and we can't have you being unfaithful to Sasuke-chan." Sora smiled as he wrapped his arms around Naruto. Naruto smiled slightly.

"He asked about you today." He said. Sora looked surprised. "Yeah, it threw me off a little too."

"What did he ask?" Sora asked.

"Just how you were doing. I said you were fine." Naruto told him.

"Tell him to ask me himself next time." Sora said with a soft smile.

"He still blames himself." Naruto sighed.

"That idiot." Sora sighed as well. Neither boy had ever blamed Sasuke for what happened. When Sasuke had stopped talking to them, that had hurt more than any cut or burn ever could. Naruto laughed softly and yawned. "Go to sleep." Sora told him. Naruto nodded and easily fell asleep.
