Okay, I felt like writing a second to the first, so here you go.

Disclaimer: I do not by any means own Naruto...

The next thing I knew, I was lying on something soft and comfy, not the cold, hard ground where I was lying before. The pain was still present, but it wasn’t as intense as I remembered it, it was more… subtle, in a way, and my body was all stiff. I tried to move my arms, but with no success, I then tried my legs, but I got the same results. It was useless. I couldn’t move at all, I couldn’t even move my neck, it was too sore.

I tried to open my eyes, slowly as everything seemed a bit too bright for my liking, but once they were open, everything around me was completely blurred. My vision soon returned, so I looked around, without being able to move my head around, so my vision was impaired.

I was in my room, in my apartment, though I don’t remember my bed being this comfy. Maybe it only felt this way because of what happened yesterday, though I wasn’t sure.

I could only just about see the window out of the corner of my eye. It was still slightly dark out side, and the blinds were down, though there were plenty of holes in. Damn, I really should get those replaced. I tried to let out a small laugh, but I couldn’t, instead, I began to cough. I guess my throat is still dry from yesterday.

I guess I should be thankful that I’m here now. But… how did I get here, I don’t remember going here, then that must mean that someone else must have gotten me here. But why would anyone do that, I mean, that’s why I was in the predicament in the first place; because I’m hated and loathed by everyone. Not a soul around would want to help me, but still, that doesn’t solve why I’m here and not in that ally way. Someone must have left me here. But if someone had done that, they are they still here.

Naruto tried to look around but found that he couldn’t, remembering about his neck problem. However, he wouldn’t need to look around as his questions would soon be answered.

“Don’t move. It’ll only worsen the state in which you’re in.”

Naruto froze were he was, though it was hard not to. That voice. It was cold and… and there was something about it… something that didn’t seem normal. It lacked emotion.

“W-who are you?... W-what are y-you doing here?” Naruto finally managed to say, though it took a lot of effort.

“You shouldn’t speak. You need to conserve you’re energy so that you can heal, though, you are healing rather quickly.”

There was silence once again, and Naruto still couldn’t pinpoint where the voice was coming from, though he now knew that it was from somewhere in the room, his room. That made him feel a bit uneasy, thinking that there was someone I his room, whilst he was too beat up to do anything. That man would be able to kill him in the blink of an eye, even if he was just a civilian, the Naruto had a feeling that it wasn’t just a civilian.

But, like he had thought yesterday, he couldn’t be killed, no matter hard anyone tried, though that didn’t mean that he couldn’t feel the pain, that unbearable pain which he had endured to many times.

“You should try and sleep. It will help with your healing.” The person suddenly said. Naruto got a slight shock as it had been silent for a while. Was the man really trying to be nice or was it a trick, so that he could get Naruto in his sleep.

However, Naruto also didn’t want to disobey him, so he tried to sleep, but it was no use, he was too scared and on his guard, though he closed his eyes. However, almost as if Naruto’s thoughts were being read, the person spoke.

“Don’t worry, I’m not here to hurt you.”

Naruto had been told that oh so many times and yet, the person who said that would always hurt him in the end, he would always bring the most pain. But, this one sounded different, but not because of his oddly monotonous voice, but something about made him sound like… like he wasn’t lying and that he could be trusted. But, naruto wasn’t sure it was trust. He had never trusted anyone before, so, if this man was telling the truth then he’d be a first that Naruto would trust, and probably the last if Naruto’s carried on as it were.

Naruto soon found that he was considerably tired, and that he could somehow now fall asleep in the presence of this man. But before he closed his eyes, he saw the man, the one who had saved him. He was tall, and incredibly dark hair, as it almost blended in with the darkness of the room. He saw the man’s eyes, which were a shade of deep red. Naruto now decided that he liked that colour, it made him feel safe, in a way.

The man got closer to him, until his face was only inches away, but Naruto could feel that the man wasn’t here to hurt him, so he let his eye lids fall, the last thing he felt was something warm and soft, press against his forehead.

A kiss.
