Ok, Moodysavage, this chapter is all for you! (oh gosh please don't strangle me... 0_0) It is 1,506 words long... and the story is nearly finished... I dunno what else to write. Thank you though for your comment! I'm sorry the chapters have been so short but I will try to make it up with what's left to write.
To everyone else who have been reviewing I love you! It is thanks to you that this story is so close to completion. If not for your encouragement we'd still be stuck faking that smile... (chapter one)Sasuke’s P.O.V
I watched as he fell, just plunged forward into the dirt. My heart sped into overdrive and I sprinted to him, thanking my lucky stars that I had chosen to come down this road. It had taken a while to get to him but I found him eventually, first as a yellow speck far off in the distance and finally fleshed out as he fell to the ground. I ran to him and lifted his head up. “Naruto! Naruto!” I called, shaking him lightly. “Wake up, Naru. Please! Wake up.” Tears fell from my chin onto his face as I clutched him to me, crying for the first time since he had left. It had only been a week but it had felt like forever that he was gone, and it took forever for me to know what had happened, why he had left. How could I have been so stupid? Tears fell from my eyes as I picked up his limp body, slinging the suitcase over my shoulder, noting my little name tag hanging from the handle. I had to save him but at that very moment I did not know how I would do that. His blonde head lolled pathetically in my arms causing tears to spring to my eyes again. This was all my fault! If I was better Naruto wouldn’t have felt the need to run away like he had. If I hadn’t been so fucking ignorant! I carried him in my arms all the way back up the road, cresting the many rolling hills that broke its surface. My arms ached and my legs burned – much like my eyes – but I kept on, chanting his name repeatedly inside my head. I have to get him to one of the hospitals. Get him fed, and watered and cared for. “I’ll make up for it, Naruto. I promise. I’ll look after you.” I whispered into his ear, my legs still pumping our two bodies up the road. I vowed I would take care of him, when he is in the hospital I will run to his every beck and call. At home I will treat him like the prince he is and spoil him rotten. It’s the least he deserves after this. After what I’ve done. I’m actually starting to wonder if staying around is a good idea at all anyway. What if I do this again? My eyes close as more tears fall at the thought of hurting Naruto. I never want him to leave again but I don’t know if I can be strong enough. My drinking is bad and I know that. I also know this needs to stop but I just don’t know if that is something I can do. Drinking is my way of coping. With my family dead and gone and the village having turned their back on me it is the only way I can feel even minutely normal. Though Naruto, he makes me feel normal. He never turned his back on me, he was always there no matter what I did. At least until recently. And then the thought hits me like a bullet. What if it did matter? What if he finally turned his back on me and I’ve gone and stuffed it up again? Forced him into my company when he so clearly doesn’t want to be in it. I’m such a horrible person! How could I have done this to the only person who ever cared, the only person I ever cared for? Fresh hot tears spill from my eyes and land on his cheek, tracing the contours as they were dragged down by gravity – mimicking my shattered heart. Of course. It all made sense now. My mind is made up and I know what I have to do. Once I get him to safety that is, then after that I will put my plan into action. I will never hurt him again. Naruto’s P.O.V I could feel myself being picked up, I knew it was him. His arms curled around my waist and my shoulders, my head resting in the crook of his elbow. I would feel his pale arms constrict around me and then they’d loosen and I’d find my dazed mind wondering what is going on in his. His thumb is rubbing light circles into my hip; I can only just feel it. Everything is all hazy and barely there. I’ve felt him cry a few times, his chest shaking and warm tears splashing onto my face and neck. I’m there and I know everything that is going on but I can’t speak. I can’t tell him I’m ok, I can’t save him. Sasuke’s P.O.V I’ve been walking for hours and my entire body is screaming in protest but I can’t stop. I can see the white walls of the hospital somewhere ahead of us but I’m too tired to calculate the distance, instead I just trudge on, Naruto’s unconscious body limp in my arms. I stumble slightly, only just managing to pick myself back up again and keep walking.. Save him. Save him. Save him. I chant this over and over in my head with every step I take, reminding myself of why I’m putting myself through such physical agony. He was worth it though; he would always be worth it. My decision is made and there are only a few more hours ahead until I can put it into action. Then nothing will ever go wrong like this again. My mind goes blank as I close the last few meters to the front door where I am met by nurses. They load Naruto onto one of the gurneys and roll him away from me, my arms still held out in front of me as if I was still holding him. I swallow the lump that has formed in my throat and follow after them. “He’s all right.” Whispered a nurse somewhere to my left. “He is just exhausted.” He is lying on the bed, his blue eyes closed, his hand hanging limp from the side of the bed. I sit down beside him and curl my fingers around his gently. “I’m so sorry Naruto.” I whisper. “Please forgive me for everything.” My eyes closed and my head fell onto Naruto’s chest as my world blinked out into the realms of sleep. Hours later I woke up, my head resting on his chest, his hand tangled possessively into my hair. I take a deep breath and remove his fingers gently before sitting up. I gather up my belongings and then lean down to press a kiss to his forehead, watching as his eyes flutter and a groan escapes his lips. The nurses will let him out soon, within an hour as long as he is awake. I dart forward and press my lips to his, reveling in their softness. Naruto’s lips move underneath mine and a small sound escapes him, his hands finding my wrists and holding me there. I pull away from him and walk away, leaving him on the hospital bed, putting my plan into action at last. I figure it’s safer for me to leave than it is for me to stay. What happens if I hurt him again? I could never forgive myself and so the only way to make sure that never happens is to leave. It’ll hurt him but soon he’ll forget and move on, find someone else to protect him. Scrunching my nose I swallow back the lump in my throat and wrench my heart back into my chest. I can feel it pulling back, trying to get back to Naruto but I need to save him and so I will leave and protect him from myself. Naruto’s P.O.V I woke to find Sasuke’s lips on mine and it felt amazing. It didn’t last long and within seconds he was gone. Opening my eyes I look up at the nurse with curly brown hair. “Where’d he go?” I ask groggily. “He said he won’t be back. To tell you sorry.” She said, fidgeting uncomfortably with the hem of her dress. I nod and swing my legs out of the bed, determination sparking in my eyes. I have to find him. I run from the hospital, spotting his raven hair and sprinting after it. “Sasuke!” I cried, grabbing his shoulder and spinning him around, my fist meeting his face in midair. Sasuke doubled over, his hand clenching his face. “Goddamit Naruto!” He swore, glaring up at me. I glared back before pulling him upright, my hands fisted in his shirt. I gave him a rough shake before bursting into tears. Why did he want to leave me? His pale arms constrict around my middle and he pulls me to him, scowling. “Don’t leave. Don’t you ever dare leave me Uchiha.” I growl into the dark blue fabric. I feel him shake his head and I press my face into his chest. “Never.” Sasuke murmured, kissing the top of my head.Hope you enjoyed!
