A Series of Unfortunate Events

"Where..." I croak, clearing my throat. "Where were you?"

"Out," he says.

"Out," I repeat him in a murmur. "Out where? You were gone for more than a week..."

He lets out a long sigh. "I spoke to the police about this already. I don't want to talk about it again."

"Fine," I say. I move forward only to have him back away.

"Don't fucking touch me," he whispers harshly, holding a hand up in an attempt to keep me at bay.

"Why?" I ask weakly, somewhat taken aback at the demand.

He lets out a bitter laugh and I can tell the sound is mixed with humiliation. "I have chlamydia."

My eyes widen at that. "What?" I croak.

"Might wanna get tested," he murmurs. "I don't know when I got it or who from."

My throat tightens with revulsion, but I force myself to calm down. "That's okay... I'll get tested later on. It can be cured, right?"

"Yeah," he whispers. "In a week or two it'll clear."

"I was worried about you..." I tell him sincerely. "This... this doesn't change anything. Even if I have it, too, I won't be mad."

"Oh, how nice," he replies sarcastically. "Do you realize how fucking thirsty you sound right now? You missed my ass. Thanks ever so much."

"I missed you," I retort tersely. "You! So don't give me that bullshit. You know I'm not using you. I'm not! I fucking care about you! If I didn't care, do you honestly think I would be here?"

He remains tight jawed. His eyes are glassy and his nose is red. He looks like he'll start crying any second. "Idiot, Naruto. You're an idiot."

"And you're a fucking mess," I reply, letting out a breath. "Fuck... I really thought you might've been dead in a ditch somewhere."

"No," he says, flicking the light off so the room is dim. "I'm fine."

"What the fuck happened?" I ask. "Please..."

He steps back into his room, nodding for me to follow him. Silently, I do and the two of us settle on his bed. "I don't want to talk about it," he says. "It feels like a dream. There are parts I don't even remember."

"Shit," I murmur.

He lies down and I do the same. "I'm sorry," he suddenly says, staring up at the ceiling while I stare at him.

"What for?" I ask.

"What I did last time we were together," he explains. "It wasn't right of me."

"You didn't do anything wrong," I assure him. "You asked, remember? If you were doing something I didn't want, I would've stopped you."

"Would you have?" he wonders and I can tell he doesn't quite believe me. Maybe he's right. Maybe I will keep letting him take and take and take. Nonetheless, I don't respond. "I've never been on top before," he adds after a brief silence. "You were the first."

"Really?" I ask, pleased to find out.

"Mhm..." he pauses. "Did it hurt? I remember my first time hurt a lot."

"It hurt for a minute," I admit, "but it wasn't that bad." I probably wouldn't've been into it if it were any other person, but it's okay that it was Sasuke.

"Good," he murmurs.

"So... what happened?" I ask slowly. I feel like I need to know. I need to know that he's okay... but I guess that's fucking stupid because he's not.
