Chapter 7: I Would Do Anything For Love

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto-tachi though I do wish I had both Sasuke and Kakashi in my bed. I’m an anime whore. Anyways I no own the song either it belongs to Meatloaf or his record company, whatever.

Oh and thanks to my reviewers and I want to apologize for Arai being mother to Sasuke’s baby but it’s very very essential to the plot as you’ll see in later chapters. And come on Arai is not a bitch, she’s just blind. I actually love Arai even with her naïve belief that Sasuke loves her. And I unfortunately do not have the lyrics to this song but the main verse I am revolving this chapter around is ‘I would do anything for love… but I won’t do that’. And since you have all been such nice and patient yaoi fans I am going to put some SasuNaru loving in this chapter sort of.

“I hate you! I fucking hate you!,” Arai squeezed his hand harder but Sasuke kept his face blank, “I hope you die painfully horrible you mother fucker! You did this to me! You made me be him! I hate you! Die! Die mother fucker!” Sasuke jumped back as the old woman tried to take the sharp object out of Arai’s hand and held down her arms.

“Well Yami you do have yourself quite the polite lady,” the old woman laughed and Sasuke looked at Arai with a little bit of fright, “It’s best that you leave while I handle the birth.” Sasuke nodded his head and stood to exit the room pausing as Arai’s weak voice reached his ears.

“I would give him anything but he doesn’t want it from me. He wants it from the blonde, he loves only the blonde. He’s only using me till he gets that little kitsune.” Sasuke lowered his head as he walked out of the room ignoring the yells that followed after him and went down the stairs. The store was empty due to the late hour and he suspected that the streets maybe empty as well.

(Flashback)

Sasuke watched as Arai went about setting up what would be their residence for sometime from the barely standing chair he sat on. As she bended over he thought of someone else he would like to have in that position cursing as his body reacted to that thought. Arai craned her head to look at him as she heard his voice her eyes glinting with curiosity but she remained where she was.

“Arai…,” in response she gave a little ‘hm’ of acknowledgement, “Can you do something for me?” She stopped trying to fix up the bed and gave her full attention to Sasuke, confusion evident on her face as she noticed he was finding the floor rather interesting.

“What is it Sasuke?,” Arai had approached him when she spoke and Sasuke put an arm around her pulling her close and pressing his forehead to her stomach. The heat of the season had her in a bra-like top and a pair of Sasuke’s shorts. She had sacrificed any money she had had in her pocket when they ran to keep Sasuke taken care of.

“It’s a lot to ask but can you do a Henge no Jutsu to make yourself look like Naruto?” Arai had gone very stiff after those words had passed Sasuke’s lips and he took this as a ‘no’ but when he heard the movement of her hands and the transformation of her body he smiled. Arai pulled off the top she wore and backed away from Sasuke looking at him with bright blue eyes a few strands of blonde falling in front of her eyes. She rubbed the blonde spikes nervously as she plastered that token Naruto grin on his face that she wore.

“Even if I look like him my body isn’t fully like his,” she grabbed the crouch of her pants and gave a slight laugh. Arai was trying to make this all seem a joke to her but it truly hurt to know that never would Sasuke actually see her for her all he’d see in her was the person he left behind, the only person he’d ever love.

“It doesn’t matter,” Sasuke pulled her onto his lap and Arai lowered her head deciding to just give into this as Sasuke would only hold her this tenderly when she had the face of Naruto.

“Sasuke-kun,” Naruto’s voice was soft and sweet in Sasuke’s ear and it made all the hairs on his body stand on end. Sasuke ran his hands up Naruto’s bare sides and then back down going into the shorts that were too big for the smaller boy and cupping his behind. Naruto jumped surprised by the action and blushed as he lazily put his arms on Sasuke’s shoulders. Naruto angled his head to give the Uchiha a kiss but Sasuke turned his head away.

“No you’ll taste differently.” Naruto looked disappointed by this statement but then just nodded his head and leaned back a bit as the Uchiha attacked his neck with a feverish mouth. Sasuke stood up holding Naruto and deposited him on the bed separating from him only long enough to pull off his shorts. Sasuke took in the body below him his eyes growing sad as he took in the lack of something but didn’t let his mind linger on it. Instead he let all his logic died and the lie continue not caring of the consequences. Not caring that this could lead to more troubles for him and his far too devoted partner in crime.

But a little less than nine months later the consequence was all too obvious as Arai’s belly had begun to grow and now she is in some apartment above a vintage clothing store trying to bring a life into the world. Sasuke sighed as he walked down the dark streets his mind not allowed to shut down for there were no distractions so late at night. Naruto had been close by, if Neji had come to get them… Naruto had to be on the team. That’s the reason he had been in the ramen shop, so close yet so far away from Sasuke. The Uchiha grumbled in annoyance wondering why Naruto had not reacted. He knew the kitsune was smart enough to tell it was him yet he had made no reaction. Was he toying with him? Or was Sasuke just so desperate to be in Naruto’s arms that he cursed the boy’s rejection of him? He cursed that he was with Arai and that now he could not leave her, now that she was having his child. Sasuke let his shoulders slump feeling like such a complete idiot. It had been that one night that he had slept with her that ruined it all for after that night he felt obligated to stay by her side. Sasuke punched a nearby wall taken aback when he didn’t feel brick breaking under his knuckles instead his hand was being held by a strong grip.

“Grandmother sent me to fetch you the woman has given birth to two,” Sasuke wondered who this guy was before he caught on to what he had said.

“T… t… two?,” he stuttered in his disbelief and the brown haired male nodded his head as he started to walk away.

“By the way I’m Kanna-baba’s grandson, Kyoshi and I know you and the girl have been lying to her. I do not appreciate that, Uchiha.”

“How did you know?”

“I’ve been to your lovely village before, your name precedes you,” Kyoshi jumped onto the rooftop of Kanna’s apartment and Sasuke looked at him with narrow eyes before entering the place. Kyoshi’s energy was gone but Sasuke had the feeling that he’d see the young man again though this had been the first time he’d even heard of Kanna having any living family.

“Yami can you believe this! You have twins, a gorgeous little girl and a strong little boy!,” Kanna held out the boy, the girl was in the bed sleeping beside her mother who even in her rest had lines of worry etched on her face.

“How nice now the girl can take the name of your daughter as you asked, Amaya.”

“Thank you Yami but what will you name the boy?”

“Kenji,” Arai’s voice came weakly from the bed as she looked at the baby boy in Kanna’s arms and Sasuke nodded his head in agreement.

“So you saw the two of them but you let them go?,” Naruto really wanted to beat the shit out of Neji at the moment but the looks from their team mates kept him from doing so.

“I didn’t let them go, I lead you all to where I found them but as you see they are no longer here,” Neji spoke calmly even as he stared at the enraged kitsune, “They’ve moved on so we must search for them again.”

“You let them escape because you’re in love with that whore,” Ino regretted her words as a hand held her to the wall by her throat.

“One whore recognizes another at least she only acts as such for being blinded by a Uchiha,” Ino gripped Neji’s wrist trying to get him to pull away and only got him to loosen his grip enough for her to speak.

“Blinded by Uchiha? You keep telling yourself that Neji but you must realize how pathetic you are for chasing after a girl who lets herself think that an ice prince could actually love her,” Ino noticed Neji’s expression becoming a little sad, “And you who are usually so smart how could you fall for the whims of that tramp? How did she get you to act like such a fool…” Neji released Ino and backed away looking at the rest of his team that had the same accusatory looks on their faces.

“I did let them escape…,” before he could finish Naruto tackled him to the floor about to punch him but Shikamaru grabbed his arm.

“You’re so bothersome, let him finish first,” Shikamaru released Naruto allowing him to stand then offered a hand to Neji. Neji looked at Shikamaru’s hand then swatted it away and stood on his own.

“I let them escape because Arai’s pregnant.” Silence resounded in the room and everyone turned to look at Naruto asking their team captain what they should do now. Naruto was trying to let it sink in, he couldn’t believe it. It couldn’t possibly be true. Sasuke had… he had sex with Arai but what about…

“We go back to Konoha tonight and tell the Godaime what we’ve found out and wait for her instructions,” they all nodded their heads agreeing with this, “Let’s get moving the trip to Konoha isn’t going to be that long.”

“Shouldn’t we check for them once…”

“No, things have become a little more complicated now we should consult the Hokage before continuing.”

Sasuke looked at the sleeping Arai as he rocked the bassinet of one baby while he held the other with one arm. Kenji was the one crying up a storm in the bassinet while Sasuke held Amaya who was silent and resting her head on his shoulder. He had bags under his eyes from not having been able to sleep, Arai had been asleep all night while he was watching the babies. He sighed in relief as Kenji finally stopped crying only due to the fact that he had fallen asleep. Amaya started sucking on Sasuke’s shirt signaling she was hungry and Sasuke moved away from the bassinet. He walked out to the hall and knocked on a door a few doors down from his. Kanna opened the door and handed him a bottle then closed the door. Sasuke sighed as he walked back to the room taking his chair again and fed the baby girl.

“How could I let this happen?” He didn’t even notice that Arai was awake as he looked at Amaya with eyes full of regret. He had never meant for it to go this far and now there was no turning back, there was no way he could redeem himself now.

“Anything I would do to be with you but… what have I done?,” Arai blinked back tears as she heard his voice knowing the words were not directed at her. They were directed at the blonde she had imitated to get that romantic night she wanted with Sasuke. She felt dirty at the moment, she felt sick. Unable to move from the pain of just having given birth she threw up all over herself getting the attention of Sasuke. He put down Amaya in another makeshift bassinet and pulled Arai into a seated position.

“Never again,” she forced herself to speak and then threw up all over Sasuke. He disgusted by it turned and threw up as well attracting the attention of the person in the room next to theirs.

“You people are going to start having to pay to stay here,” Kyoshi leaned in the door frame, “I’m not dealing with this shit for free. Go put her in the tub and clean all this up, she has a fever.”

“You’re a medical nin?”

“Hai, I was stationed in Konoha for a while. Wouldn’t they love to hear I found their two missing nin?”

“Why would you rat us out?”

“I won’t.”

“Why?”

“My grandmother loves the two of you too much, she sees you as my parents that passed in battle. I can’t take that comfort away from her but if you two do anything wrong I won’t hesitate to chase down the ANBU troop who’s searching you out.”

“This complicates things greatly,” Tsunade sighed as she sat behind her desk looking at her Uchiha search party, “Arai with child… I never expected that they would actually start a life together after they left the village.” Neji didn’t mention the fact that Arai and Sasuke were barely making it on their own.

“Arai seemed close to giving birth already,” Neji informed the Hokage who only sighed and looked down at her desk. She had to decide now what they would do, how they would approach this if at all.

“Is our team to continue their search?,” Naruto questioned his voice daring her to say no, he wanted to find them even more now. He wanted a reason for Sasuke’s actions, justification for that night and for how easily Sasuke had forgotten about him. Tsunade looked up at their faces seeing what each wanted to do, how each wanted to handle this situation and made her decision.

“You will halt your search for Arai and Sasuke for the time being,” Naruto looked beyond angered at hearing this, “It will do us no good to start trouble now, we have more important things to handle. A group has gathered with formidable foes against our village, a missing Uchiha and Konoha adoptee are of little concern now. You are all dismissed.” All but one left the office leaving Tsunade staring up at darkening blue eyes and a forced smile.

“They maybe of no concern to you but all my concern is with them. I feel sorry for the baby they have, having to live a lie,” Naruto walked out of the office with that and Tsunade let the sadness show on her face.

“What’s happening to all of you…”
