Oh my god! Naruto hissed sharply as he felt Kabuto's hands grip fiercely to his inner thighs. Even with the other's hard grip, there was nothing more painful than the realization of his part in this fate. Hot tears of shame and frustration drew from the corner of Naruto's eyes as he held them tightly closed. His skin burned like he was being touched by a lit cigarette, every time Kabuto's lips pressed against his neck and collar bone. His attempts to escape were almost too frantic and would only tire him more with this paralysis potion still running through his system.

"Shush...don't cry my dear..." Kabuto teased in a intimately sweet voice. "I promise you I will be no more rough with you than that Uchiha probably would have been. But I can't guarantee a painless journey..." A cruel smirk formed at his lips as he lightly lifted the curve of Naruto's legs so that they bent just at the knee. He drew back one hand and placed it at the blonde's lips. "I can however, assure you will definitely be closer to one of them after this." He whispered before forcing three digits of his into Naruto's mouth. The numb boy desperately tried to shake Kabuto's fingers out or even bite down, but even that seemed like too much in his current position.

After thoroughly soaking his fingers, Kabuto pulled them back out. "Now here is where you start praying for your beloved Uchiha or Sabaku to come to your rescue..." Kabuto mischievously grinned as he slipped one hand just below the boy's buttock, running his fingers playfully at the entrance of the other's pucker little opening. Finally he thrust the first slick digit into the boy with haste, causing Naruto to shudder, if only for awhile. It brought the sadistic medic such arousal to see Naruto quivering beneath him and with such a vulnerable look.

Sasuke! Gaara! Somebody! Anybody... Naruto choked out a soft cry as the finger began to wiggle within him, feeling him with more discomfort. "I'll always protect you!" The throbbing in his heart only festered more at those promised words. How vividly he had recalled Sasuke swearing such a thing. And even though he hadn't wanted those words to be true at the time they were said, he was frantically wishing it had been true. He had never thought of Sasuke to be one of just talk before, yet here he was thinking the Uchiha had abandoned him in punishment for his rejection.

The sudden intrusion of a second finger broke Naruto from his thoughts and he convulsed more. "S-stop...please!" Naruto murmured weakly, staring at Kabuto with blue- laced red eyes. But his only response had been Kabuto's gentle kiss just below his eye, where he then licked away the fresh tears and gave him a maniac’s smile. The scissoring within him had been uncomfortable, but the insertion of a third and hopefully final finger had only been more degrading. This brought Kabuto the most pleasure when Naruto's body arched helplessly up, trying to get away from the offending hands. However, it was also upsetting to the captor as well. This much motion was a clever sign the potion was already working its way through Naruto's body and thanks to the Kyuubi's abilities, it wouldn't last as long as it would for an average human.

"Damn..." Sasuke groaned, rolling over onto his other side. His eyes finally tore open when he could not force himself to sleep for the fifth time that night. He thought he would have managed some sleep when Kabuto first left the room, but he had been plagued with worry the whole time. Of course he merely excused that as his usual paranoia like always. And for the rest of the time, he had been wondering what Gaara and Naruto could be doing at the moment. His suspicions only seemed to get worse when he could clearly hear Naruto screaming out Gaara's name and something along the lines of please.

Now if anyone else had been Sasuke, they would have thought the same thing: Gaara was screwing his beloved blonde's brains out. But something had obviously been lost in the interpretation for the loud footsteps; more like stumping and running, could easily be mistaken for thumps along the bed or wall and if things were as kinky as they sounded, the floor as well. Sasuke had finally thought he got a break from his wild imagination when there was peace and quite for an hour. Of course that hadn't lasted too long for now he could still hear mumbled and strained voices through the walls this very moment. The bed also rattled in a way Sasuke was sure had to be a great effort with the body.

He was so going to kill Naruto for this in the morning. For goodness sake, did they have to rub it in his face?! He got the point, they were together and they could do whatever the hell they wanted. He just wished they would be more subtle about it; how long could they possibly do this? And though he didn't like to admit it, just picturing Gaara slamming into Naruto's tiny form had brought him so much pain. He wanted to be the one to bring that peppy little blonde so much happiness.

That was it! Sasuke had taken just about everything he could! He shoved off all his blankets and leaped from the bed with such curiosity, the floor shook. He marched angrily to the door and jerked it open, not minding how it slammed into the wall beside it and made his way next door. He kicked down the down without any care for the bill. "What the hell is your fucking problem?! I swear not everyone gives a damn about your stupid love life, so we sure as hell wouldn't want to hear ALL about it!" Sasuke hissed out as quickly as he came. Of course the moment his eyes focused to the side of the room where town forms laid entangled on the bed, Sasuke had gapped silently.

He wasn't sure he saw what he thought he saw. Because it sure as hell looked like he saw what he thought he saw. Naruto was pinned just beneath Kabuto's body with terrified look on his face and fat tears. And with Kabuto half dressed and his hands touching his love's more sensitive spots, didn't make Sasuke any more happier than he had been when he first came in. And like a sudden flash of lightening, a bomb had let off inside the Uchiha and everything from that moment had been a blur.

The first thing Sasuke could clearly see through his fiery, red eyes was Kabuto's form curled tightly on the floor, a pool of blood flowing from every opening on his face as his foot currently stood pressing the other's skull into the ground. "Touch him again and I'll ripe out that lying tongue of yours and wrap it ten times around your neck!" Sasuke barked viciously, his words dripping with a fatal venom.

And for the moment, Sasuke didn't even care when Kabuto scurried from the room like a pathetic baby. His heart plummeted into his stomach as soon as he returned his eyes to the motionless form still on the bed. he could visibly see Naruto tense up as he looked back him with such unfamiliarity and fear; tears ever present. "Naruto..." Sasuke called out softly, hoping not to startle him, but he failed miserably. His voice hadn't recovered from the anger he felt, so he had sounded just as deadly to the one he had meant to protect. Even worse when Sasuke had merely stepped forward to confront Naruto, the boy had frantically forced himself up on his elbows and struggled to drag himself further back against the bed post to get away.

"Naruto! Are you alright?" Sasuke asked in concern. He rushed over, thinking Kabuto had probably hurt him worse than he thought until the blonde couldn't move at all. But to Sasuke's surprise, Naruto dragged himself to sit up in a painful hurry.

"Go away!" Naruto screamed. The words came out frail and stressed from the poison and all his crying, yet it was not only Kabuto's actions that had caused this tone. Sasuke stiffened, yet hadn't stopped trying to approach Naruto. "I said leave me alone!" Naruto yelled out, his eyes tugging tightly together.

"But why? Naruto, you are hurt. Let me-"

"I hate you!" Naruto interrupted instantly. "Just leave me alone! I don't want you around!" Sasuke faltered in his steps. There was such a burning in his heart from those words suddenly, but it had only encouraged him more. He came to Naruto’s side and grabbed the boy's shoulders firmly, only to have him try to break free. "Why won't you listen?! I want you to go! Just die Sasuke!" Try as Naruto may, he could not make the words any more sincere than what his heart would allow.

He was just as bad as Kabuto; a lying, deceitful snake. He knew he never hated Sasuke and he certainly didn't now. Whoever, he so badly wanted to hate him right now, for so many reasons. Sasuke hadn't come to save him at all, in fact he came here to punish him for what he thought was going on. Not only that, this was all Sasuke's fault as well. If he had left things the way they were before, this wouldn't have ever happened. Gaara wouldn't have left him. He would still be...still be...

"Naruto, you don't know what you are saying!" Sasuke insisted. He pulled Naruto close to him. "Come on, let's get you out of here. Where's Gaara?" Sasuke asked quickly. The first thing to come to mind was that Gaara was probably attacked or knocked out by Kabuto, however, Naruto's eyes told a different story. The sudden look of hopelessness and despair made things quite clear, even more when Naruto refused to face the Uchiha. Once again, Sasuke's red eyes had flared at full force and narrowed. "Where is he Naruto? Did Gaara leave you here by yourself?" Sasuke lashed out.

"It was a mistake..." Naruto defended, shy tears dripping down from his cheeks and onto his trembling hands. "Everything..." His head pressed lightly into Sasuke's chest and he almost seemed to relax when Sasuke's arms fell protectively around his shoulders. "It was a mistake...I wasn't suppose to fall in love with you..." Naruto admitted at last, feeling lower than dirt at the moment. "I can't love you both, but I do. It's wrong, I know it is. But even now..." tan hands slowly climbed up and cupped the neck of the ivory skin, "I was waiting for you to come. I wanted to hear you say 'I told you so'."

Sasuke was bewildered beyond compare. What was Naruto truly expecting him to say? How did he expect him to act now? How could he live knowing Naruto 'did' love him and yet he would still remain with Gaara, someone who had left him here to suffer.

It was quiet, too quite for Gaara's taste. The only sound that seemed to show of life was the gentle crackling of the fire, positioned in the middle of the floor. Just the little flame had illuminated the entire room without much effort. Yet, Gaara could not make out any form but his own in the dark shadows on the wall. He hoped he hadn't missed the mysterious woman on her way out, not that he actually thought she had reason enough to leave. But it only made sense she would have to leave regularly to restock on food and supplies for her art, that she supposedly got so much business for.

"Ah, what do we have here? A little cave mouse searching for a warm home for the night or an anxious lover hoping to please his unsightly obsession?" Gaara flinched at hearing the voice so suddenly and hoarse from behind him. Turning sharply on his heels, he glanced vengefully at the pale woman in the entrance way. In her hands were bundles of herbs, which only assured Gaara more she had spent the entire day and way into the night searching for her supplies. She gave him a croaked smile and set the belongings down. "What can I do for you?" Gaara sneered and turned his eyes to the side. He didn't want to explain himself, not when it would only make her believe she had been right the first time. Yet she discovered it quite easily, "so you are willingly to change yourself that bad for him? I hope he is certainly worth it." She said with a sigh.

Gaara watched curiously as she walked over to a small station of hers against the wall. "Will you do it?" Gaara finally asked. "Will you remove my demon from me?" It had been the most he had ever said to anyone other than Naruto. Gaara felt reluctant when he noticed the stern look in the woman's eyes as if she was seriously contemplating if this was the right thing to do. Apparently she had decided to go through with it since she had bothered o search for some odd purple pill and a couple of sutras.

Standing again, she looked at him decisively. "There is no turning back my dear boy. Once the demon has been removed, it can not be reinserted. I can promise you it will be a painful experience. As long as your souls are still connected strong, it will be a nearly fatal extraction. But be warned, the demon supplies most of your chakra now, that is to my understanding. If I remove him, your power will depreciate more than half. If you do this, you may never be able to be a ninja again. Do you want this?"

Gaara stiffened, his thoughts bumping into one another. This was stupid, he didn't need to do this. Yet, he felt he had to, not only for Naruto but for himself. He was always known as the demon container, a monster. He always thought it would be better to have lived as his own person for who he was rather than what he was. He wouldn't need to depend on Shukaku for his power and his respect, he wanted it for himself. But most of all, everyone would finally be able to love him.

With his thoughts finally gathered, Gaara solemnly nodded his head. "I do." He agreed.

"Very well, then you must follow my directions to the very tea." She ordered with a hard look.

For the first time Sasuke could ever truly remember, he was nervous. Sure anyone would have been worried if a guy like Kabuto was still out there loose again, but that wasn't the thing that bothered Sasuke. After all he had escorted Naruto back to his room for the night and intended to stay up to keep a look out. But the fear that plagued his mind was that of Naruto's condition. He was not injured, all except his pride, yet he was so very fragile in his mind set at the moment. Sasuke was afraid Naruto would snap on him suddenly and probably go insane.

After such an ordeal the blonde seemed too controlled about it. He had almost instantly drifted to sleep as soon as Sasuke laid him back down on the bed. And Sasuke had merely been staring at his form for the past hour now, wondering what was going on in that boy's head that allowed him to rest so peacefully. But even more scary than that, when Sasuke had walked away from the window sill and toward the bed to check on him, he very well found Naruto still very much awake; eyes opened in an almost painful slant and a frozen figure that was not held back by the poison.

"Naruto?" Sasuke questioned, stepping around the other side of the bed to see the boy's face entirely. "If you don't get you rest, we won't be able to go back to Suna in the morning." Sasuke offered with a soothing voice. He kneeled down, approaching Naruto with such an alluring aroma about him and tenderly caressed the sun kissed locks. It nearly startled Sasuke to see those sapphire eyes rolled sharply to where his hand was, yet soften with remorse.

"Sasuke..." Naruto began, but his words were soon lost in the communication. Sasuke leaned closer to hear the other's soft murmurs, but instead he was greeted by two thin arms that latched heavily around his neck and drew him further down to Naruto. Sasuke stared back with pure astonishment, desperate cobalt orbs starring back at him with intensity. "I don't want it anymore..." Naruto whimpered. "Please Sasuke...just take it from me. I don't want anything that will cause us further pain." Sasuke had instantly knew Naruto was referring to all three as them when he said 'us', but he didn't have any idea what Naruto wanted taken away.

"What are you talking about dobe? You aren't hurting anyone, so stop being stupid-" Sasuke's words muffled beneath moist lips that quickly meant his. What the hell?! Naruto was kissing him?! Sasuke wasn't as shocked about the fact Naruto had been the one to make the move rather than when he had tasted something quite familiar. He immediately pulled away from Naruto, grabbing the boy by the shoulders. "You're drunk you imbecile!" Sasuke barked, no wonder it was so easy for Kabuto to get to him. Sasuke had clearly tasted the liquor in the other's mouth during the kiss. He stood up quickly. "What did I fucking tell you about taking things from strangers?!" Sasuke growled, stepping back.

"No!" Naruto screamed suddenly, propelling from his spot on the bed and desperately grabbed onto Sasuke's waist before the other had even blinked. "Please! Don't leave me too!" came the blonde's pathetic sob. "I don't want to be alone anymore! I'm sorry, I didn't want any of this to happen! Please, just don't go Sasuke...I'm so very tired of being alone..."

The deep feeling returned again and Sasuke felt his guilt in the pit of his stomach. He didn't regret anything he had said, but rather how he felt right now. He was actually sort of happy hearing how Gaara had abandoned Naruto so suddenly. He was even more relieved to hear how badly Naruto wanted him around. And though he knew he shouldn't have, he was so very happy that Gaara was gone and he was here when Naruto needed him the most. How could be so selfish when the boy he loved was shaken up by his own tears and clinging to him like life itself?

With a gentle sigh, Sasuke stepped forward and pushed Naruto lightly back onto the bed. "I'm not going to leave you. He crawled in beside Naruto, for once having the chance to feel the blond curl up so close to him like a blanket. How could he not place his lips heavily over Naruto's that moment and hold him tightly? This was wrong...he reminded himself. Naruto was drunk and to top that off he was freaking depressed which was just the equivalent to insane or mentally unstable. Yet, Sasuke didn't pull away, he didn't stop; he couldn't. Not now when he finally had the chance...

...
.....
.......

"Don't go..." the sheepish whisper came, followed by a light sniffle.

"I won't." Sasuke's voice came in a raspy moan as he lowered his head to the tan neck before him. It reddened beneath his lips...

"And you'll stay with me?" the voice asked expectedly between a hesitant gasp for breath.

"I promise." He chirped, lapping at the freshly moisten skin. His hands traced the careful outline of his soon to be lover, producing a fiery heat beneath the other's cheeks.

"...Will you still love me- in the morning?" came a sudden gasp again that carried quickly before a tiny muffled moan.

"..." Sasuke pulled up slightly, staring down at Naruto's unclothed form, writhing deeply beneath him. Crystal blue eyes nearly glowed in the dark as they looked to him for compassion, for pity, for love. But Sasuke had also noticed the hazy glassiness of them as well, only assuring him more that Naruto was not in the right mind for what he was about to do, nor had it been his real thoughts that had consented.

"Definitely, Naruto..."
