--------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------

"It's beautiful, isn't it…" Hinata sighed enthralled, as she took her standing position beside the blonde boy. She gazed out onto the serene landscape, as her breath hitched in her throat. This had to be the most beautiful place on earth… And who better to share it with than the one boy she adored so much?

Could things be any more perfect?

She felt so calm, so at ease... The feeling of comfort crept up upon her again, and she welcomed it with open arms. It was just like the night before… When Naruto had held her… The feeling of peace, of serenity…

He was sure to like this place… Then again, who wouldn't? It was perfect… And the other ideal factor about it was that very few people knew that it existed, since it was so well hidden by the dense forest trees… She had actually stumbled upon it accidentally, during one of her training sessions gone wrong… She stifled a giggle as she remembered how she had yelled a little too loudly at Kiba, and then ran off in shamed mortification...

Sighing a little in melancholy, the dark-haired girl stole a quick glance at the blonde beside her. She was shocked when she saw that his usually sparkling blue eyes were dull and unfocussed. He seemed almost drunk again, except this time he seemed intoxicated by an unknown force...

Sudden worry gripped at her heart. Was he feeling ok? Did he have a headache?

Were the effects of his hangover playing up again?

"It's beautiful…" the blonde croaked weakly, albeit reluctantly. He wanted nothing better than to collapse pitifully upon the floor… But that wasn't a very polite way to treat your companion now, was it? He had to stay strong… Act tough… Otherwise Hinata would suspect something…

And whatever happened, NO ONE was to find out…

No one could ever find out…

The dark-haired girl watched the blonde silently, and felt her heart break. His eyes - they betrayed so much hurt, so much pain… Why the hell was he in so much pain? She wondered sadly whether it had anything to do with the memories of the 'dark haired person…'

And judging by the blonde's drunken comments towards this unnamed person the night before, Hinata began to wonder what the hell this person had done to break the blonde's heart…

To break the heart that had seemed unbreakable.

--------------------- Flashback - Part II ---------------------

"Sasuke, you're such a bastard…" Naruto growled as he ran through the woods. It had been exactly 4 hours since he had last seen Sasuke… And 4 hours since that incident… He blushed furiously from the memory of the encounter.

Whether he liked to admit it or not, the blonde was rather regretting his actions. Maybe he had taken things just a little too far today… He shivered in dread as he remembered wrapping his legs around the stoic boy. What on earth had possessed him to do that?!

But he was so warm…

Naruto quickly shook the guilty thoughts out of his head. What the hell was going on?! He shouldn't be thinking of his comrades in that manner, let alone his male companion!

'Must be the jutsu…' he rationalized to himself. 'Yep, that *had* to be it. Being in girl form corrupts your mind…' Especially when it came to Sasuke... Maybe that boy was too attractive for his own good... Then he silently pitied the whole female population in Konoha for having to bear with such unhealthy thoughts...

Such very unhealthy thoughts.

Keeping that in mind, the blonde resumed his mission of hunting down his rival to ensure that things weren't 'weird' between them. After all, Sasuke was probably one of the few friends he had… That's if you could call their strange relationship friendship

He sighed and fervently hoped that nothing had changed…

-----------------

After about another 2 hours of fruitless searching, Naruto decided to give up. For one reason or another, the stoic boy just did not want to be found. And when Sasuke wanted to hide, he did it very well… He wasn't Konoha's former number one rookie for nothing…

The blonde heaved a weary sigh. Looks like he'd have to apologise in the morning….

Unless of course, the Uchiha boy would've forgotten it by then.

Oh how he hoped it would be the latter.

-----------------------

For one reason or another, Naruto found himself walking aimlessly into a clearing of tree stumps. He was rather shocked when he regained his senses, as he didn't even remember blanking out.

'Where am I? I don't remember ever being here before…' he thought in silent confusion.

The blonde gazed bewilderedly around him.

Then gasped.

In front of him was the most beautiful lake he had ever seen.

--------------------- End of flashback - Part II ---------------------

"N-Naruto-kun…" Hinata stammered. She was at a loss of words. What was she supposed to do? Seeing the blonde in this state… He seemed so vulnerable… Should she hug him? Or would he break at the slightest feel of her touch?

Her heart broke when she saw the pain in those blue eyes… The pain that cried out to her… She felt her heart wrench agonizingly within her chest.

Who did this to him? Who had hurt him so badly? Who was that person with the dark hair?

Something definitely wasn't right here… He wasn't like this before… He was fine… He was normal, happy, smiling… Until…

Until they had arrived here.

The dark-haired girl then realised rather sullenly that the blonde must've had some really bad experiences from this place beside the lake…

Experiences bad enough to shatter his heart.

--------------------- Flashback - Part III ---------------------

Naruto gaped in awe, his mouth hanging open shamelessly. Where was this place? Did he just somehow walk into a vortex and end up in another dimension? He held his breath as each minute detail of the surrounding area sank into his sense, sank into his mind... The area looked so mystical, so surreal… The silver moonlight glinted off the calm waters, adding an extra appeal to the already bewildering atmosphere.

It was like a dream…

Somehow he had stumbled into a beautiful dream…

------------

"What do you want," a monotonous voice spoke softly. It wasn't even a question, more like a statement. Naruto looked around him frantically as he recognised the low hues of his rival's voice.

And there he was. The boy genius was sitting on a rock, facing the illuminated lake, his back to the blonde boy.

Naruto, to say the least, was shocked that he hadn't even noticed Sasuke's presence. Especially since he had been standing there for a few good seconds…

'How? What…' he reached out an unsteady hand to brush away a strand of blonde hair from his eyes, as his mind raced unnaturally. He was a Shinobi… So why wasn't he even aware of the other boy's presence?

He then noticed how the heir to the Uchiha clan seemed to blend in with the environment… His dark blue shirt provided a good camouflage against the dim background… His hair appeared to absorb the darkness, making it almost darker than the blackest of nights…

But his arms… His arms were a complete contrast from his clothes… His skin appeared to be glowing a faint silver, giving him a timeless, almost ethereal beauty... He was like an angel from the skies…

Naruto realised that with a jolt of surprise that he was beauitful...

Yes even from the back, Sasuke was beautiful...

"I said, what do you want." The sentence was short and sweet. Naruto was half expecting a 'Go away you moron' or a 'Leave me alone, dobe.' After all, if someone had stumbled upon and interrupted the blonde in this haunting place, he would've been slightly pissed off. It was too special, too precious… It was just too magical to share...

Especially with someone who was considered a rival.

The kitsune frowned, wondering why the stoic boy hadn't told him to leave yet… After all, he was there first, so technically, he had the right to order the blonde to depart. He stared into the back of Sasuke, slightly puzzled by the slight change in persona in the raven-haired boy.

Sure it was a small transformation, but Naruto didn't hang out with the boy all these years and not notice the little changes.

Maybe it was a dream…

"How did you know I was here?" the blonde asked breathlessly. Thanks to the harsh training sessions and tutorials initiated by Kakashi, the whole of team 7 were now experts at stealth and silent missions. From walking and breathing, to throwing kunais at critical soundless levels... It was definitely a skill well worth learning. And even though Naruto had found the ability hard to grasp at the beginning, due to his naturally loud and obnoxious nature, he had managed to perfect it after sheer hard work and determination...

And he knew that he had walked up to the Uchiha just as silently as he had been trained.

"Shinobi's do not just use their eyes and ears… Smell is also a very important and beneficial sense…" Sasuke murmured quietly, without turning around. Naruto frowned. Usually, he would've gotten angry at that belittling comment - it was as if the raven-haired boy was mocking him - mocking him for his lack of basic knowledge when it came to the world of the ninjas, ridiculing him just because he could… Yet the blonde could not detect a hint of the usual superiority within the tone of his rival's voice.

Which was very strange.

Very very strange.

"I could smell you a mile away… Especially since the wind is behind you…" the Uchiha explained.

At this point, Naruto became quite scared to say the least. Instead of mocking him as he usually did, the stoic boy had actually explained something to him… And had actually explained something without heavy sarcasm and blatant patronization.

This wasn't Sasuke that the blonde knew!

This couldn't be him!

"Where's Sasuke, and what have you done with him?" Naruto blurted out before he could stop himself. He didn't care how stupid he sounded - he just wanted to know what the hell was going on!

There was no reply. OK so maybe he hadn't changed that much after all…

Sighing a little in bafflement, the blonde slowly crept towards the usually unapproachable boy in mild curiosity...

If he had known what would've happened before he decided to make that fatal move, then maybe... Maybe he would've stayed back and stayed away... He should've stayed back… He should've run home, gone to bed and forced himself to forget about this place…

Because maybe, just maybe none of this would've ever happened if he had done so…

Then maybe Sasuke wouldn't have left.

--------------------- End of flashback - Part III ---------------------

Naruto glanced fretfully at the rock in front of him that Sasuke had once been perched on. 'It's the same rock… After all this time, it's still there…'

He couldn't hold it in anymore… He couldn't believe it… The last time he had been here was during that incident… Just what was he doing here? Why did they have to come here of all places? Just WHY?

He slumped to the floor despairingly. He should've known… He should've known that nothing would ever go his way… He shouldn't have bothered trying to hide his memories… It was obvious that the past would always somehow come back to haunt him…

But he had been doing so well! He hadn't come here - not even ONCE - since the incident… And the dreams about him had diminished… The possibility of him returning had been literally zilch…! He had seriously believed that he had moved on…Moved away from all of it… From his past…

But then he did return. And now it looked like his past has also decided to return.

-----------------------

"N-Naruto-kun? Are you ok?" a high-pitched voice asked, desperation and concern evident within the tones. The dark-haired girl debated whether to try and comfort the obviously distressed blonde. His eyes had lost all its warmth… All its life…

She decided to sit next to the boy, too scared to touch him in case he might freak out. She had never seen him in this state before, and it truly frightened her…

Yet it also made her adore him so much more. His weaker side revealed just how human he was, how fragile… She wanted to protect him… Protect him from whatever it was that he was so afraid of…

Protect him from whoever that had made his bright eyes dull.

"I'm here for you Naruto…" Hinata whispered softly.

But the blonde heard nothing but the beating of his own frantic heart.

--------------------- Flashback - Part IV ---------------------

The blonde gasped loudly for the second time that night.

Sasuke… Sasuke was…

He was breathtaking.

The moonlight complimented his pale features perfectly. His dark lashes kissed his high cheekbones; his nose curved at all the right angles, and his lips contrasted a deep red against his overall fair complexion… He looked like a totally different person… Sure Sasuke was handsome during the day, but this was… This was way beyond even him. He looked like an angel…

But it wasn't just his appearance that had fazed the hyperactive blonde…

It was his expression.

Never before had Naruto ever seen so much emotion upon the usually impassive boy's face. It was as if his arrogant nature that pissed the blonde off so damn much was nothing but a wall…

'A wall like mine…' the blonde realised with sudden shock.

The raven-haired boy's eyebrows were knotted in semi-confusion, but his eyes… His eyes were deep and black… So mystifying… Yet held such… Was that longing? Yes… his eyes were filled with yearning; the type of yearning that seemed to cause him utter and complete pain...

The longing that Naruto was all too familiar with…

The longing for something that you could never have.

Maybe the consequences of transforming into a girl were still in effect, or maybe it was just the atmosphere - either way, Naruto felt a sudden urge to bring the beautiful creature sitting in front of him whatever he wanted, whatever he longed for…

No matter what it took…

----------------------

The two boys stayed in that position for what it seemed like an eternity - the blonde staring openly at the dark-haired boy, as the dark-haired boy stared off into the distance. Yet neither party backed off.

Sasuke continued his anguished contemplation, seemingly oblivious to Naruto as the blonde watched on in morbid fascination. What could the boy want so much? He was Sasuke for god's sake! What couldn't the great Sasuke possibly get?

He wasn't like the blonde… The blonde had nothing - no friends, no relatives, no respect... He had the right to yearn… but the Uchiha didn't! He had no right to want more than he had! If he just opened his eyes and looked around him… He'd see so much love, so much admiration…

He had everything Naruto had ever yearned for.

And yet he wanted more.

The blonde wanted to get angry. He really did. He wanted to be irate with the stoic boy, for being so damn blind, for being so damn selfish…

And yet he couldn't. For some strange reason he couldn't bring himself to shout, to hate the boy sitting almost next to him...

His eyes…So sad…

He looked like a fallen angel…

An angel that had been forced to re-live the worse memories of his life.

-----------------------

Naruto lost track of time as he continued to simply stand and exist. It was so peaceful, so calm... Tranquility settled like a thick duvet around the two rivals. It was a rare occurrence, and yet it was so natural... It felt so natural...

Both felt so at ease.

"Why are we here Naruto?" a soft voice suddenly asked, jarring the blonde back to reality.

Naruto's face resumed one of his trademark frowns of confusion. Did the stoic boy just MAKE conversation?! That had to be a first!

"I know I'M here cos I got lost, but how the hell am I supposed to know why you're here?" he complained incredulously, misunderstanding the Uchiha's question.

The raven-haired boy didn't reply, which irritated the blonde. He stomped up nosily towards the other boy, prepared to shout and rant at him. Why the hell was he was SO damn RUDE anyway?! If he asked a question, then he could at least have the decency to hear out the answer...!

But as he got closer, he realised that the Uchiha heir wasn't smirking at him as the blonde had originally envisaged. What shocked him even more was that a small smile seemed to grace his lips... Was it true? Could Sasuke actually be smiling?!

Sasuke could smile?!

Ignoring the fact that his rare smile had made the Uchiha look even more amazing, Naruto acted the way he always did in his presence.

Angrily.

"What you laughing about?" he muttered suspiciously. He suddenly felt self-conscious. Did he do something stupid? Or maybe he had said something stupid! He racked his brain furiously for an explanation.

Suddenly it hit him.

"It's not that hard to get lost you know..." he murmured, slightly embarrassed that a shinobi could lost in his own village. Ugh he hated it! He hated the fact that the raven-haired boy could get a reaction out of him so easily... Even if it was a negative one, such as embarrassment, or anger - the blonde was angry that he couldn't even seem to restrain his own emotions within the stoic boy's presence…

How did Sasuke manage to break down his walls with such ease?

----------------------

Once again silence greeted both boys with open arms.

Never being one to manage to stay still for long, Naruto surprised even himself as he jumped up onto the rock that Sasuke was sitting gracefully upon.

He didn't know what came over him...What possessed him… Usually the two boys hated the sight of each other, and tried to get as far away from each other as physically possible... (Except when sparring of course...) They were like two magnets - one as cold as the north, and the other as bright as the south... Yet although they probably wouldn't damn admit it out loud, one was not complete without the other...

Yet they repelled. And Naruto felt this quite visible force as he plonked himself awkwardly beside the stoic boy.

But he didn't flinch, nor did he walk away. The blonde realised, rather sullenly, that this was the first ever occasion that someone hadn't tried to get away from him when he had come near...

Even in kindergarten, even when the children were way too young to understand that they were meant to despise him, they still walked away whenever he came near... They still shuddered when he spoke... Scooted away when they thought he wasn't looking...

But he was looking.

It was all done semi-politely though, as if the children were trying to tell him 'I'm supposed to hate you, but I don't know why... But I don't want to make my daddy angry... I'm sorry...'

And maybe he wouldn't have felt so bad if someone had actually said that to him.

But no one did.

And as time went on, the non-understanding stayed the same... And the hate continued to grow.

And so, the blonde heart started to crumble, and inevitably became colder...

--------------------- End of flashback - Part IV ---------------------

"N-Naruto-kun…" Hinata suddenly found the strength and confidence in herself to move closer to the shaking blonde sitting beside her. She still didn't know what was wrong - he hadn't said a word in ages. He just sat there, looking dazed… Eyes filled with pain…

So much pain…

She reached out a small hand, and inched it closer towards the quivering blonde. She wanted to help him so bad! But she didn't know what to do! How could she make him stop hurting? How…

She closed her eyes and gently lowered her hand upon the blonde's hair. She didn't want to alarm him… Scare him away…

She sighed in relief when he didn't flinch or shrug her off. In fact, his erratic breathing seemed to somewhat calm. Maybe physical contact was good for situations like this…

Just to let them know that they weren't alone… That someone was there...

And that someone cared…

--------------------- Flashback - Part V ---------------------

"I…I think I shouldn't have done what I did today…" Naruto murmured softly, after sitting in silence for about 10 minutes. Even he was surprised at his own behaviour. Konoha's number one loudest ninja was… quiet for once in his life! He had somehow managed to sit next to his archrival, and not say anything! He didn't poke him, insult him, shout at him, fight him… Hell, he wasn't even feeling pissed off at him!

And now he was apologising to him? Could this day get any stranger?

Naruto rubbed his head wearily, waiting for an answer.

"Are you apologising?" Sasuke asked after a few seconds hesitation, a little confusion apparent in his voice.

"No I'm not!" Naruto snapped automatically. Then he held his breath. Why did this always happen? No matter what the Uchiha boy said or did, the blonde always took it offensively…

"I mean… Uh… Yeh… I am…" he muttered softly, as he averted his gaze to the lake. The wind was gently ruffling the surface of the water, sending shards of reflected silver light in millions of different directions. It was so breathtaking.

The kitsune was horrified when he heard a low chuckle a few seconds later. Did he-?! What the-? What the fuck was that?!

He span his head round furiously to face the stoic boy, who was wearing a bemused expression upon his fair features. Naruto searched his face, looking for any signs of mockery or ridicule...

But there was none.

And so the day carried on getting stranger and stranger…

---------------------------

"Wanna go for a swim?" the raven-haired boy asked, unexpectedly, as if he had forgotten that Naruto was half way to apologising. The blonde stared at him dumbfounded. What the hell? Did Sasuke just invite him to do something other than spar?! And why swimming of all things?!

"Isn't it a bit cold?" the smaller boy narrowed his blue eyes suspiciously. Maybe the stoic boy wanted to get him ill... Yeah that was it! Sasuke wanted to make him sick so that he wouldn't be able to train...

Or even worse, maybe the raven-haired boy wanted to drown him!

Naruto gulped nervously.

"Suit yourself," the soft voice replied. Sasuke hopped off the rock that the two boys were sharing and began to tug at his clothes.

"W-What are you doing?!" Naruto cried out, wondering why the hell his heart was beating so furiously. He was so glad that it was dark enough to hide the blush that was threatening to spill over his features.

"I'm going swimming... You don't expect me to swim with my clothes on do you?" came the nonchalant response.

"...dobe." The stoic boy seemed to add that as an afterthought, although the usual venom wasn't in it.

"Why are you swimming at this time of the night anyway?" Naruto questioned, sounding angrier than he felt. He quickly averted his gaze from the now topless boy. He could still feel his heart beating rapidly, as if he had just run a marathon. Just what the hell was wrong with him?! Was... Was Sasuke doing this to him??

"I mean... You might catch a cold..." the blonde added, sounding pathetic to even his own ears. He didn't know why he didn't want the raven-haired boy to swim. Usually he would've encouraged the anti-social boy to jump right in! After all, he was the one that would be getting cold... And there was also the slight possibility that he would get ill... And maybe even drown...

Ah… If only…

But maybe Naruto didn't want to sit there by himself and watch the dark haired boy frolic in the waters... Maybe there was a slight possibility that the blonde might actually enjoy the stoic boy's company...

Was that even possible? To enjoy the company of his anti-social, non-communicative dark-haired rival?

Either way, Naruto heard himself utter the words that he knew he'd come to regret.

"Wait for me!"

Sasuke paused with his hands on the waistband of his shorts. His expression was unreadable - a slight mixture of shock and pleasure.

"I thought it was too cold?" he raised an eyebrow, as if wondering what brought on the sudden change. It was now his turn to be suspicious.

"I'm not going to drown you!" the blonde snapped at the obvious distrust, feeling guilty since he had suspected the raven-haired boy of that in the first place. He searched his mind frantically for a reason... Any reason…

But what could he say? He himself didn't even know why he was agreeing to this!

"You won't beat me you know..." the Uchiha seemed to contemplate thoughtfully for a while, before removing his shorts in one fluid motion.

The blonde went bright pink, and quickly looked away towards the sparkling waters.

"Beat you?" Naruto squeaked in confusion. What the hell?! Why the hell was his voice sounding so high pitched?! He blushed remembering the image of Sasuke's almost naked body… He had such a firm and well-toned torso - it made the blonde feel self conscious about his own...

Maybe it wasn't too late to back down...

"The only reason you wanted to swim was so that we could race... Right?" the heir to the Uchiha clan had almost sounded slightly disappointed, but the blonde was too embarrassed to notice...

"Uh…Yeah…" Naruto answered in a rush, not really listening to what the dark-haired boy was saying. He had to use all his concentration to suppress the blush that was threatening to take over his whole body. Was it possible to glow bright red? The blonde decided he didn't really want to find out…

He didn't know why he was feeling so nervous, so uncomfortable, or why he felt butterflies in his stomach… The effects of the 'sexy-no-jutsu' couldn't last that long could it? Or maybe he was coming down with a cold or something?

Yeah that had to be it. That would explain why he was feeling sweaty, hot and feverish... And it explained why his heart and breathing motions had suddenly decided to act so erratically...

"Hurry up then…" the Uchiha had a hint of impatience to his voice.

"Huh?" Naruto asked dumbly, and turned his head around to gaze at the boxer-clad boy. Then wished he hadn't. He was sure that his face had just turned flashed beet red.

"You're not really going to swim in your clothes are you?" Sasuke enquired, in his are-you-really-that-stupid-or-are-you-just-trying-to-piss-me-off tone of voice.

"Course not!" the blonde shouted in embarrassment. Just what the hell was wrong with him? Why was Sasuke making him feel so damn uncomfortable?

He tugged at his clothes a little too forcefully, as he tried to steady his jittery nerves. Yes he was nervous, yes he felt self-conscious… And he had no why idea why, except maybe the possibility that he was coming down with something…

Gah. He hated being ill.

"What are you looking at?" Naruto muttered and gave the silent boy an evil glare, as he felt black eyes burn a hole into his skin. Why the hell was Sasuke watching him undress? Was he a pervert or something?!

'Haha... Imagine if Sasuke *was* a pervert...' the blonde grinned at his own stupid thought. 'Sakura and Ino would be devastated... Then again, they might start streaking just for the Uchiha...' he shuddered at the thought.

Sasuke gave him a look of barely concealed bewilderment before wading into the clear waters.

Naruto breathed heavily, and removed his trousers. He still didn't know what had possessed him to do this… He blamed his spontaneous nature… Then promised himself to never let it loose again…

But what's done is done. No point backing out now…

'But if I get even more ill than I am now, I will kill him…' he muttered through clenched teeth.

And so the blonde prepared to wade into to clear lake, after the already swimming raven-haired boy…

--------------------- End of flashback - Part V ---------------------

Hinata stroked the blonde locks ever so lightly. She was secretly delighted that his hair was as soft as she had imagined. And so warm…

No matter how the blonde boy was feeling, he always felt so warm…

She ran her hand across his scalp, entwining her fingers within his messy hair, happy in the knowledge that she was able to soothe the trembling boy. His haggard breathing had all but stopped, but he was still breathing rather erratically…

And his eyes were still blank…

Still frighteningly blank...

"It's OK, Naruto-kun…" she whispered, and scooted closer to the warm boy. "It's OK…"

And once again she didn't notice the all too familiar presence of the one Uchiha Sasuke… Hiding silently within the dark shadows with eyes full of unconcealed rage…

Rage fuelled by bitter jealously.
