Feedback: Feedback is always welcome!
Sasuke:
-Stumbles into the room followed by a very disoriented Naruto,
gloating author following-
Dream:
Wassa matter?
Sasuke:
-Glares at her and says nothing-
Itachi:
What'd you do?
Dream:
Nothing. n-n Anywho. I had someone tell me in a review that they
don't like Yukiko. So just to let you know, she's a supporting
character and she keeps the plot going. That's her main purpose. I'll
say it now, she probably isn't as strong as them, but if

she were to fight Sasuke she would probably win because her fighting
style is different than his. I'm not comparing their power here, just
the way they fight. If
I do a fight scene between them, you'll see. n-n Which I might need
help with if I ever decide to do it. o.o
Itachi:
Are you done?
Dream:
Mmhmm.
Itachi: So
why did you rewrite this chapter?
Dream:
Because it was bugging me and I didn't like it. Besides. It'll make
me happy if I get it how I want so shush.
Itachi:
Ok... So what did you do to ototo?
Dream:
Hmm? Oh. Nothing. n-n He was bitching about something earlier so I
smacked him upside the head several times. Let me tell you, it was
fun.
Itachi:
-Sighs and shakes his head- Warnings, disclaimer, well, you get it
right?
Dream: Oh
yeah, and for those of you that did read it, my apologies but you're
going to have to read a new chapter two. The first time around it was
bugging me so ya know... it had to be redone. Sorry for those that
are confused or thought they were seeing things. This is for the
fanfiction dot net readers only. x3
Warning:
The same OOC thing applies to every chapter, and I don't really think
there's anything worth noting that you need to be warned
about.

Still not with the owning. However, all characters and locations not
associated with the series belong to me, as does the plot for this
story. No touchy.
Chapter 2

Yukiko found the blond asleep on one of the couches in the sitting room. She smiled down at him as she gently smoothed her hands over the cloak still covering him. Before Taro had fallen asleep, the child had firmly told her that no matter what, otosan was not allowed near otokasan. She had sighed and shook her head, not saying a word as she tucked him in, kissed him on the forehead and silently left the room as he drifted off to sleep.
She knew damn well that the only one who could change things was probably the Uchiha, and she hated that. The damnable fool was the one to cause this mess, so why should he be the one to fix it? It's simple really. He was the only one Naruto would change for. The blond would always love him. She knew that. Hell, even the fox knew that.
She sighed then, scratching the side of her head gently. She straightened and turn away. She had an Uchiha to find and possibly harass. Discarding her cloak by the front door, she unlocked it and pulled it open, stepping outside. White eyes glanced around her, narrowing in annoyance. She could feel several unfamiliar chakra signatures coming her way. She sighed once again and pulled the door shut behind her, locking it.
She feigned ignorance as she strode toward the gate. She wouldn't be deterred. She had things to talk about with the Uchiha. Important things that couldn't wait.
�Don't bother,� she said, walking towards the people she recognized as the blond's friends. �He's asleep right now. Leave him be.�
�But we just-� one of them started.
�I said no,� she replied, interrupting th moron. �It's been a long journey. He needs his rest,� she said firmly, her tone leaving little room for argument. �Perhaps tomorrow.�
She heard the barely audible muttered troublesome, before the defeated group turned and left. She watched them go before continuing. It annoyed her that they would try to see him again so soon. What right did they have? None of them had tried to help the blond so why the hell were they even his friends?
It wasn't like it was a secret that Naruto was leaving, but not one of them had come to say goodbye to him. Naruto had cried the entire day until he fell asleep. She had held him close. It was all she could really do for him at the time. She sighed for what could probably be the millionth time that day before she paused to ask someone where the Uchiha District was. She thanked the nameless stranger and took to the rooftops, heading to where she hoped the Uchiha brat was.
She muttered obscenities under her breath. She would curse the Uchiha if he still hated the blond after all this time. She might take a stab at killing him, but then again it might not go over so well, what with the alliance and all. She sighed as she pushed her morbid thoughts away and focused instead on what needed to be done.
She didn't want to, but if she had to she'd probably resort to something physical to get him to comply, or something. She wasn't sure just yet.
Her head snapped up when she felt a slight burst of chakra some ways ahead of her, presumably from the Uchiha District. White eyes fixated on her destination as she moved forward a bit faster. She had an Uchiha to annoy. It wasn't every day one could do that, even if she had done it to the elder Uchiha a few months back when the fool and his partner had to try to come for Naruto again.
No, she hadn't fought them. She had actually managed to piss off the Uchiha and not get killed. Amazing isn't it? She taunted, she teased, she pushed every button imaginable until the usually emotionless man erupted and attacked in a blind rage. That was when they made their escape. The blue fish thing, or was it a shark? was trying to calm the Uchiha down before he could do something he'd regret later while they got away unscathed.
She had had the impression that the elder Uchiha never showed emotion, so she'd wanted to test that theory. Yukiko one, Itachi theories zero. What a day that had been.
She paused on a roof, crouching as she looked towards the Uchiha district before her, eyes looking up and down the street along the wall that surrounded the place. She lifted a hand and scratched her head behind her ear. This was sure to be fun.
She pushed herself forward and dropped easily to the ground below, approaching the main gate. Tossing common courtesy out the window, she pushed it open and let it close behind her as she stepped through.
She didn't mask her chakra, so she was sure the Uchiha would be aware of her presence and come to her. That's what she was hoping for anyways.
She felt the malicious chakra before she saw its owner, a small smirk playing on her lips.
�Uchiha Sasuke,� she said, the amusement evident in her voice, white eyes watched the dark haired Shinobi as he stalked towards her. �So I finally get to meet the bastard that broke his heart, eh?�
Sasuke froze mid step, dark eyes wide as he stared at her.
Yukiko cocked her head to the side and smiled. �That's right. It's been what, four years and two months or so since you last saw him right?�
�Who are you?�
�Suzumiya Yukiko,� she replied. �Unofficial guardian of Uzumaki Naruto and Uzumaki Taro.�
�What are you saying?� he demanded.
�I thought you were supposed to be some kind of genius,� she said in an offhanded manner, giving a slight shrug of her shoulders.
�He... he's...�
�That's right,� she said, interrupting him. �We've just arrived today.�
�I-I h-ha-� he stammered, stopping as she interrupted him again.
�I have to say, this is very unbecoming of you,� she said. �Moving on, we need to talk, Uchiha.�
�A-about what?� he replied, hesitantly.
�What do you think?�
�No,� he said firmly. �I can't.�
�I guess you don't care if he dies then do you,� she replied with another shrug.
�What?� he said slowly, uncomprehending.
Yukiko turned away slightly, hiding her smile from him. �You heard me. He's been dying since that day. I don't know how much longer he can hang on.�
�I don't believe you,� he replied, glaring at her.
She shrugged and looked back at him, her smile gone. �If you don't believe me then fine, but if you don't do anything, he will die.�
�How?�
�Suicide.�
Sasuke stared, unbelieving. The way she said it so calmly made it seem all the more true. He knew he'd made a huge mistake when he walked away from Naruto, but he had never believed his foolish actions would hurt the blond so much. He still loved him. He knew that. He had never stopped loving him.
But that day, that agonizingly painful day, he had made the worst mistake and lost his most precious person. He had acted rashly, not even stopping to think when the blond had told him his biggest secret and then about the child growing inside of him. His first thought had been the blond was making a mockery of him, trying futile to get his hopes up before they would be brutally crushed. He hadn't seen the blond since.
�But why?�
�Because he doesn't have the will to live. When you broke his heart, he shut down. He's a shell of his former self. The only reason he's even still living is because of the child. He doesn't want him to grow up alone.�
Sasuke looked at the ground, having moments ago calmed when Yukiko had said the blond was going to die.
�What can I do?� he half mumbled.
Yukiko smiled slightly. �I can give you a a few suggestions. We came to the conclusion that the only one who can fix him, is probably you. Kami-sama knows how hard I've tried to help him, but he still loves you. He always has and he always will.�
�What do I do?� he said, lifting his head to meet her gaze.
�I can only get you started, the rest you have to figure our for yourself.�
She watched as the Uchiha sank to his knees, hands planted on the hard ground. This was exactly what she had wanted to happen. She knew damn well the blasted Uchiha was the only one who could change things. It was all his fault, and he had to fix it. She had an inkling the Uchiha still loved the blond, and she all but hoped she was right.
�I have a question,� she said, crouching down in front of him, resting her arms on her thighs.
Sasuke lifted his head, black eyes meeting white. �What?� he asked quietly.
�Do you still love him?�
�What?� he said, repeating the word.
�Do. You. Still. Love. Him.� she repeated.
He looked down again, muttering his reply under his breath.
�What was that? I didn't hear you. Speak up.�
�Yes,� he said a little louder this time.
�Just the word I wanted to hear,� she said, standing up.
�Get up,� she commanded.
Sasuke rose, watching her warily.
�We have much to discuss.�
�Like what?�
Yukiko smiled and turned, heading towards the main house. �Away from prying ears,� she replied.
He stared at her for a moment before following.

Naruto woke an hour later from his slumber, his mind a little hazy as he slowly sat up to prevent a headache. He sighed when he didn't feel Yukiko's familiar presence anywhere in the house. He'd woken from another dream about Sasuke. His eyes had opened as soon as it had started to take a turn for the worse. His feet hit the floor as he buried his head in his hands. Returning to Konoha had been a bad idea.
He ignored the fox as the demon tried to reach out to him. The fox had tried, but he could never stop the dreams from coming to the blond. They seldom turned into nightmares, but it still brought pain and the fox didn't like it.
Kyuubi continued pushing, trying to talk to him, but the blond shut him out. He didn't want to talk to the fox right now. He wanted to be alone with his thoughts of the brunet, despite the fact that he didn't really want to talk or even think about him.
His head jerked up when he heard Taro calling out for him. He bolted to his feet, running from the room. Taro, he said in his mind.
He scrambled to the second floor, throwing the door to Taro's room open as the child came at him. He caught the child and held him close as the words tumbled out of the three year olds mouth. He'd had another nightmare.
He couldn't say the words that would calm him. All he could do was sit down on the bed and hold him as Taro told him all about his dream. He half-listened to him. It was usually the same thing anyways. A faceless stranger trying to kill Naruto.
He gently smoothed the child's dark hair as he began to settle down, snapping to attention when Taro called out to him.
�Otokasan?�
Naruto released him so he could use his hands.
'What is it?'
�Do... do you still love otosan? Yuki-obasan said you do. Is it true.�
Naruto sighed before nodding. 'It is. I've always loved him, and I always will.'
�But otokasan, he hurt you. I don't understand.�
'You might one day. But your otosan did so much for me. I just don't think I could ever stop loving him.'
�Oh,� Taro said, looking down. �Do we really have to be here though?�
'Yes,' he replied. 'They had agreed that I was to come back after three years.'
�Oh,� he said again. Taro didn't know it had been four. Earlier that day he'd been asleep when Yukiko had spoken to otokasan's friends. �Do you think you'll see him?�
'I don't know,' he replied slowly. 'It's possible, but I don't know.'
�Ok,� he said, moving forward to nestle against his otokasan. He didn't know what else to say.
Taro was lulled back to sleep by Naruto's soothing hands on his head. Naruto watched his son sleep for a few moments before gently setting him back on the bed, curling up behind him with his arms wrapped protectively around him. His eyes fluttered closed as he drifted back to sleep.

�How do I know this will work?�
Yukiko smiled at the Uchiha. �If you don't like it, do something else. It's only a suggestion you know. You don't have to follow it.�
�I don't like it.�
�Stop bitching and do it your way then. I don't give a damn. Just do something.�
�I will,� he growled.
�Oh, but do remember, don't antagonize the child. He does hate you for hurting his otokasan as you did.�
Sasuke narrowed black eyes at the olive skinned woman who only smiled at him once again. She shrugged her shoulders before speaking again.
�Well whatever you do, just don't make the child hate you anymore than he does. He's not so forgiving when it comes to Naruto.�
�I understand,� he said quietly.
�Oh, and one little thing. We'll be out shopping tomorrow. Use that if you can.�
Yukiko rose from her seat and turned to leave. �Remember what I've told you, Uchiha. My faith lies with you in that you will do what needs to be done. You're the only one that can make a difference.� she left him then, walking out of the room.
Sasuke stared after her, sighing softly as he lowered his head. He knew full well he'd thoroughly fucked up. She had told him nearly everything, summed up into a short tale leaving out everything that wouldn't make a difference either way. She had even gone so far as to tell him about his first suicide attempt the year before.
He grabbed the sides of his head with hands and muttered incoherently under his breath. He wasn't going to follow her suggestions. He'd do this himself. He was the fuck up, so he had to fix it. Right? Save the god damn butterflies.
Sasuke sighed as he slowly sat up, letting his hands fall between his open legs. For four years he'd regretted every single day of not being able to be with his blond. He had destroyed everything with those simple words that had spewed forth from his mouth before he could even stop himself and think about it. Only when the blond was gone did everything hit him full force and push him back with the raging tide. He was a god damned fool and he didn't know what to do now.
Naruto was worse off than him, and it was all his fault. Yukiko had told him that the blond didn't show emotions anymore, and that he'd thrown up wall after wall after wall to protect himself from the outside world. And the reason he didn't talk was because if he said something, he would hear Sasuke's words again.
The brunet ran his fingers through his dark hair, trying to figure something out. He would most certainly use the woman's little tidbit of information to chance an encounter with the blond. He paused in thought though. Everything would revolve around the child. He had to somehow make peace with their child. But the only question was, how? How did one get a child that hated him to accept him? Damn near impossible, or at least he thought so anyways.
The key to getting to the blond was the child. Get the child and the rest of the pieces would fall into place, right? Right. It would work out somehow. It had to. He knew what he had to do now.
He also knew that Yukiko wasn't going to make it easy for him either. She'd told him as much. He could try, but he wouldn't be able to get close to Naruto. Not until the blond was ready for it anyways.
�This is frustrating,� he grumbled, trying to think of a way to get to the child.
All he really knew, was that Taro hated him, and was very protective of the blond. He was sure that if he tried to approach, the child would lash out at him. He'd let him to. There was no way he was going to hurt the little boy. Not if he truly was his son as Yukiko had said.
He had every reason to believe it was all true anyways, considering everything that had happened to Naruto and all. There was much to do, and not a lot of time. He wanted to help his beloved dobe as soon as possible. He sighed again, trying to finalize his thoughts about what to do tomorrow. He doubted it would go over as he planned anyways, what with the kid and all. He could try to factor in possible outcomes, but it'd be pointless anyways.
He scratched his head and tried again, deciding to throw his plan out the window. He would handle it when the time came. Planning ahead was useless because he didn't understand the child at all. He slowly pushed himself to his feet, thoughts of everything that had happened still passing through his mind. He would never be able to forgive himself for hurting the blond as he had, and he doubted the blond would forgive him so easily. He didn't deserve his forgiveness. That would make everything harder, and the guilt would weigh heavier on his heart.
He muttered something unintelligible under his breath, rising to his feet. He clenched his hands and looked down. He could do this, couldn't he? He could fix everything and win back his dobe. He would make everything right again. It would be ok. It would go back to the way it was, the way it should be. He had to. He couldn't keep going without him, because the blond was his world.
He nodded to himself then. He had to believe in himself, believe that he could do this. He wouldn't mess up again. He couldn't do that, because if he did, there would be no second chance. The blond would be broken forever, and nothing would be the same.
