A/N: I just want to shortly address my readers. I came up with this story in a whim and I didn't plan it to be very long. That's why everything seems so rushed and the chapters are short. I'm progressing quickly, that's all. And thank you for everyone who reviewed until now and to all who read it. Enjoy the chapter.

The next day Sasuke was eagerly waiting for Naruto to show up at school. He knew why Naruto left so suddenly yesterday, he wanted to give Sasuke time so that he wouldn’t feel embarrassed or exposed after playing his composition. Sasuke thought it was a good idea, so he was glad that Naruto understood him so well. It was like they had an unspoken bond, which kicked in after Sasuke played the piano. He was now sure that Naruto wasn’t gonna abandon him, no matter what Sasuke did, nor what his past was like.

When Naruto didn’t show up at their usual meeting place that morning Sasuke felt a knot forming in his stomach. Maybe he misunderstood Naruto? Maybe he did drove him away? He stopped the dark thought of developing any further as he was greeted by a red-head girl in a purple dress. She adjusted her glasses as she walked towards him.

-          Hello Sasuke. How are you? – she tried to keep her voice calm, not wanting to lash out her emotions for seeing the boy. Karin was desperately in love with Sasuke, and everyone knew that, even Sasuke, but she never acted upon it, so he didn’t find it important to respond. He wasn’t interested in her anyways. He was never interested in anyone as the matter of fact. At that moment azure eyes and blond hair popped in his mind and he shook his head to drive them off.
-          I see Jugo and Suigetsu are not with you? – Sasuke almost never greeted anyone.
-          Nope. Jugo has club activities before classes and Sugietsu probably dozed off or decided to skip.
-          …
-          Are you okay Sasuke?
-          What did you say? – Sasuke was looking around the school yard, trying to catch a glimpse of blond hair.
-          Are you okay? You’re paler than usual.
-          I’m fine. I’m off to class.

With nothing else to say he marched into the school building, disappointed that Naruto was not there. He could only hope that the blond will magically find him during the lunch break.

The classes progressed slowly and Sasuke found himself checking the clock over the board every five minutes. He could’ve sworn then and there that time seemed to move slower, just to make him feel worse. When the bell finally rang, declaring the start of the break he rushed out of the classroom, right to the roof.

He didn’t realize that he was running through the clustered hallways until he reached the door on the last floor. He was out of breath. He slowly opened the door that nobody ever bothered to lock and got out to the roof top.

Naruto wasn’t there. Sasuke’s heart dropped for a few inches and he sat down next to the net that surrounded the roof. School wanted to make sure that no student could fall off, even if they were there. Sasuke looked at the crowded school yard, trying to pinpoint every blond person there, but the blond he wanted to find wasn’t among them. He finished his lunch in a hurry and spend the rest of the time hoping that Naruto will appear. When he heard the bell Sasuke started feeling worried. Naruto would always turn up during the lunch break, even if they didn’t meet in the morning. The rest of the classes went by even slower than before.

Sasuke was aggravated. After the last class was finished he picked up his things, avoiding the annoying blondie – Ino who tried to start a conversation with him and left the classroom. There was still hope that Naruto would show up. At that moment Sasuke regretted for not asking Naruto for his cell number. Maybe Naruto had a good reason for not being in school today. Only because Sasuke never skipped classes, it didn’t mean everyone else didn’t. Suigetsu was the best example for that.

He couldn’t help but feel worried. He knew he probably had no reason to be, but he couldn’t stop the rush of emotions overflowing him since that morning. He felt empty when Naruto wasn’t there, it made him think about stuff he didn’t want to think about. More importantly, it made him obsess over Naruto not being there, with his care-free attitude, to make the brooding raven relax. That boy had a hidden power over Sasuke, that he was certain of. He didn’t want to admit it, but he couldn’t deny the facts.

As Sasuke reached the school gate, he turned to take one last look around the yard. Students were rushing out, chatting with friends, goofing around, but the tanned blond wasn’t there. Sasuke sighed as he passed the gate.

-          Yo! – Sasuke heard a husky voice behind him. He turned around to be greeted by deep azure eyes and a warming smile.
-          Naruto!! Where have you been all day? – Sasuke didn’t care that he was loud. People were staring at him again but he didn’t care. He walked to the school fence wall to stand in front of Naruto. He almost hugged him, but his Uchiha look didn’t allow him that much. Yet.
-          Did you miss me that much? – Naruto asked. His face looked worn out, like he didn’t sleep all night, but he was smiling, like being there at that moment was everything he wanted.

Naruto’s question left Sasuke with no words. He didn’t want to admit that he missed him so much, but the blush on his usually pale cheeks spoke for itself.

-          I was just wondering why you weren’t there to pester me all day… - he said in a low voice, trying to sound uninterested. It was hard, his heart was racing because of the fact that the center of his day’s obsession was now standing in front of him.
-          So you did miss me! – Naruto laughed.
-          Don’t make stupid assumptions, dobe. – Sasuke glanced the other way, still trying to get rid of the blush. With every minute he was in Naruto’s presence now, he felt his cheeks flaring up more and more.
-          You don’t have to pretend, hehehehe. – his chuckle echoed across now empty pavement. Sasuke and Naruto were the only one’s left beside the school.
-          Stop it.
-          Eeh, aren’t we grumpy today. – Naruto said, bouncing on his feet catching up with Sasuke as the raven started walking towards his house.

Sasuke was glad Naruto was okay, but this public display of emotions was unknown to him, he felt embarrassed and now he just wished he was alone with his thoughts. At the same time, he still wanted Naruto to be there. Luckily as ever, Naruto delivered, following him home.

Since Sasuke didn’t bother breaking the silence, Naruto continued teasing him.

-          Awww, you missed me, you missed me a loooot! – he kept chuckling.
-          Will you stop it already?! – Sasuke yelled, stopping in place, looking straight at Naruto.

Naruto’s face was frozen and his eyes were wide open as he stared back at Sasuke.

-          Okay, sorry, I didn’t know it bothered you so much. Or do I bother you so much? – he looked hurt as he said those words.

Sasuke’s heart dropped as he realized that Naruto was feeling hurt by his words. He didn’t intend to be that harsh, but the constant teasing was annoying. Not to mention it was true. He missed Naruto so much, he didn’t even want to think what would’ve happened if Naruto didn’t turn up.

But now there they were, standing, looking at eachother, hurt evident on the blond’s face. Sasuke didn’t want to hurt Naruto, especially not drive him away. He just didn’t know how to express himself… He wanted to scream: ‘Of course you don’t bother me! I really did miss you today and I will miss you everyday when you don’t show up, you started to mean so much to me!’. But he didn’t. The emotions started building up in him, until he felt he was going to burst.

-          You don’t bother me.

Naruto blinked in surprise.

-          What did you just say?
-          You don’t bother me. – Sasuke repeated, the blush covering his face once again.
-          Then, I’m glad! – Naruto smiled widely, revealing his slightly sharper canine teeth.
-          Don’t get too worked up about it. – Sasuke mumbled. – Why weren’t you in school today?
-          Uhhm, well, I had some stuff I had to take care of. Were you lonely without me? – Naruto teased in a slightly calmer tone.
-          I am always alone. – Sasuke declared.

Naruto looked at him, saddened by his words.

-          I didn’t mean it like that.
-          It’ doesn’t matter.

Naruto pouted.

-          Hey, hey, let’s go to a park! – he suddenly said. Sasuke gave him a confused look.
-          Why?
-          Well, we can hang out for a while. Unless you already have something to do.
-          Well…
-          C’mooon, this will be more interesting than you sitting in your room, doing homework or lying down and looking at the ceiling! – Naruto said.

Sasuke didn’t know how Naruto guessed that he was going to do exactly that, but he didn’t need more convincing. He was yearning Naruto’s presence the whole day.

-          Okay.
-          Yaaay.

They reached the park in the matter of minutes. It was half-empty, there were a few kids playing in the sandbox, while their parents were chatting on the benches. Naruto reached one bench away from the others and sat down, putting his right leg over the other, his right ankle resting on his left knee. Sasuke sat down calmly. Then he remembered.

-          Hey, can you give me your cell number? – he asked out of breath, realizing a little too late how excited he was.

Naruto gave him an apologetic look.

-          Sorry teme, I don’t have a phone. – he scratched the back of his head. He did that often.
-          Oh, alright… - Sasuke’s face darkened. How was he supposed to contact him now?
-          Don’t worry, I’ll find you. – Naruto reassured him. Sasuke raised his eyes to look at the blond.
-          Definitely?
-          Definitely.
-          Thank you.

They sat in silence for a few minutes. A few kids run pass them, playing around, smiling and waving at them. Naruto smiled back and made a funny face which made the kids scream in delight and run away, giggling.

-          You’re good with kids. – Sasuke noticed.
-          Yeah, well, I guess. – Naruto seemed uncomfortable.
-          Do you have siblings?
-          No… I’m an only child.
-          Would you like to have a sibling? – Sasuke was looking at the children on the swings. A sad note was reflection in his eyes.
-          I don’t know. I already have… Well, I had a really good friend, she’s like a sister to me, even though I used to have a crush on her when I was younger.
-          Why are you talking in past tense? – Sasuke glared at Naruto, trying to read the emotions on his face. Naruto smiled, but he could see it was strained.
-          It’s complicated. We can’t hang out anymore.
-          Why?
-          It’s complicated.

Sasuke decided not to press on the matter any further.

-          You have siblings right? – Naruto asked suddenly.

Sasuke waited a bit before answering.

-          I have an older brother. Itachi.
-          You live with him, right?
-          Yes.
-          You always give such short, cold answers, you know.
-          Excuse me? – Sasuke raised an eyebrow.
-          Yeah, you try to keep it as short as possible, as if not to say too much. You should relax a little, you know. It’s just something I noticed.

Blush shot through Sasuke’s cheeks, claiming them. He tried to relax, but now as Naruto had pointed it out, it was more impossible than ever.

-          Ahh, where was I? – Naruto pondered. – Oh yeah, siblings! So you only have one brother?

His voice was innocent, but Sasuke’s face grimaced. He didn’t want to go to that place again, no, no…

His gaze dropped and his shoulders followed. Naruto looked at him, confused with his sudden change in posture.

-          Did I say something wrong..? – he asked carefully. He was half-way with his palm towards Sasuke’s shoulder when the ravenette raised his head.
-          You didn’t say anything wrong. – Naruto looked like he just realized something and pulled his hand back. Sasuke wished he didn’t stop. It may have made this easier.
-          I was supposed to have a little sister.
-          What happened?
-          She was killed before she was born. – Sasuke could feel tears forming in his eyes, but he wasn’t going to let them show. He had to stay strong, or he would break on the spot. Not one slip-up was allowed.
-          And your mom…
-          She was killed as well.

Naruto gazed at the deep black eyes.

-          That’s what the song’s about, isn’t it?
-          Yes.
-          I’m so sorry, Sasuke.
-          You don’t have to be sorry.

Naruto sighed.

-          You can tell me anything. I’ll be there for you, all the way.
-          Thank you Naruto. – Sasuke felt secure. It was a feeling he didn’t feel for the longest of times. As it turns out, Naruto was his sun after all.
-          Just, never forget that I’m there for you.

Sasuke nodded, his face hidden behind his hair. He raised his gaze to see Naruto standing in front of him.

-          I think you need to be alone right now and I have to go, so let’s meet on the roof tomorrow during lunch, mkay? – Naruto said in his usual voice.

Sasuke was surprised, he didn’t want Naruto to leave yet.

-          Can you stay a while longer? – he asked, dropping his guard.
-          Okay, but just a bit more.

Naruto sat next to Sasuke, their fingers almost touching on the bench. Five minutes passed and none of them spoke.

-          Are you better? – Naruto asked warily.
-          Yes… Uhm, yeah I am. Thank you for staying with me. I don’t want you to be late wherever’s that you’re going. – he said fastly, remembering how Naruto said that he didn’t talk much.
-          It’s okay, this is my favorite part of the day anyways. – Naruto smiled looking at him. Sasuke was just about to grab his hand when Naruto stood up.
-          Then, I’m going now. – he exclaimed. – Don’t be so broody, teme.

With those words Naruto turned on his heel and walked away. Sasuke watched him walk over the park to the exit, contemplating should he follow him or not. He wanted more time with the amazing blond. The warmth was beginning to fade.

Just as Naruto reached the gate he turned and waved to Sasuke with a huge smile on his face. ‘Don’t worry, I’ll be back’ it was almost as if he had whispered in his ear. Shivers ran down Sasuke’s spine and he jumped off the bench, running towards the gate. He saw Naruto turn left, and that was a long street, he would be able to catch up with him in a bit. He didn’t know what exactly he wanted, but he continued running.

When he reached the gate and turned, Naruto was nowhere to be found. Sasuke looked in wonderment. It was as if Naruto stated running as soon as he took the turn. It was the only explanation to Sasuke at least. He sighed when a warm hand pulled his shirt sleeve.

He looked at the two small figures to his side.

-          Don’t worry nii-chan, he said he will be back soon. – a small red-head girl with pigtails said. She was the one that pulled his sleeve.

Sasuke nodded and looked at the other figure. It was a small raven haired girl with long silky hair and deep black eyes. She was just smiling to him, showing her missing teeth in the front. Sasuke smiled and brushed the hair of the pigtailed girl.

-          Thank you.

They looked they were around eight years old.

He took another look at the dark-haired girl. She was still smiling, it was like her eyes were smiling on their own. She beamed with happiness and warmth. Sasuke felt something sharp pierce through his chest as the girl walked off with the other one, turning around and smiling to him. On the last turn she made, he could see a little tear escape her deep dark eyes and get lost in her hair.

‘Could it be…’  Sasuke was barely breathing as the girls weren’t at his sight and slowly turned to walk home. ‘It couldn’t be. I’m just imagining things, since I was talking about her…’ he said to himself as he was walking down the empty street. How in the world would he know how his little sister would look in nine years? He was never able to even see her, this was just his ill imagination playing tricks on him.

He sighed as he took a turn to his street, last words whispering to the wind.

“Kazumi…”
