Lose Yourself ｜ Sasunaru

Chapter 8

Brave - Lontalius

Naruto's and Sai's relation was going fairly smooth over the course of a month. Aside for the fact Naruto was still helplessly in love with Sasuke. He realized now that he really had no way to get over him. Naruto finally joined in on Kiba's quadruple dates but he couldn't stop himself from feeling jealous of the girls Sasuke brought or wanting to be in their place. He knew it was wrong since he was taken but honestly, he didn't really care.

"Saaaaaaiiiii," Naruto groaned from the couch, the artist was in the kitchen making popcorn for the movie they were going to watch. They were at Sai's apartment currently, it was a Saturday so they didn't have to worry about school.

"I'm coming," the other boy called in a mumble as he walked into the living room with the popcorn just as Naruto felt his phone vibrate. He pulled it out to find that Sasuke texted him.

"Oh Sasuke texted me," he muttered absentmindedly and opened his phone to answer the text. Next thing he knew, the phone was no longer in his hands and was by now shattering against the wall. He was momentarily stunned. "What the hell Sai?!" the blond fumed but when he caught the look in Sai's eye, he shut up real quick.

Sai took his seat beside Naruto on the couch as the blond went to get up so he could grab his phone only to be pulled back down. "Sit," Sai glared. Naruto gulped and obeyed like a helpless dog. He could honestly say, he felt afraid.

Later that night, Naruto went home and told Tsunade about what Sai did. She was startled by it but got him a new phone, none the less. "Naruto," the busty woman said to get his attention. "I want you to break up with him," she stated firmly.

"Huh?" the blond boy stated in confusion. "Why?" he asked.

"There's something off about him, I don't trust him," Tsunade  muttered, her brows furrowing. The two were standing in the kitchen, Naruto was doing the dishes while Tsunade was leaned against the counter beside him.

"What do you mean?" he asked, raising a brow in confusion.

She huffed. "Never mind, forget I said anything," she stood, taking her weight off the counter. "Just be careful," she advised. He only nodded, maybe he should break up with Sai.

The next afternoon, he stopped by Sai's to break up with him. He thumping his knuckles against the door three times and stood there awaiting a response. Finally, the door opened and Sai stood in the door looking angry until he saw who was at the door.  Sai gave a fake smile, like usual. "What brings you here, Naruto-kun? Not that I mind, but..." he trailed off

"Sorry, are you busy? I can come back later," Naruto reply, feeling nervous.

"No, now is fine," the pale boy stepped back to let Naruto into his apartment.

Naruto stepped in, glancing around before turning to Sai. "We need to talk," the blond started,

Sai's eyes narrowed at the nervous tone. "About?" the stated, his anger rising. He knew Naruto was about to break up with him, there was no way he was letting him do that.

"I think we should break up..." Naruto bit at his lips anxiously, looking down. He was unable to meet Sai's eyes. Next thing the blond knew, he was on the ground, a throbbing pain exploding in his left cheek almost like he got hit across the face.

"I don't," Sai glared at the blond boy on the ground. "You're mine and only mine," he hissed before delivering a hard blow to Naruto's stomach with his foot. He looked down at him, his glare growing more intense. "If you tell anyone about this, I will be more than just a punch and a kick. You're my boyfriend, that's final," he muttered before walking away.
