It's Always Been Us All

Chapter Ten— True Colors Shine


“What are the stars for if not to take delight in them?” She smiled contentedly, burying her face in the crook of his neck.


“To give hope… that maybe something greater than us is out there?” Naruto whispered, more so to himself than to her. He wrapped his arms tighter around her, inhaling her scent deeply. Loving the way the night always seemed to be so beautiful when you looked at it from Mount Hokage.


“Well, they certainly are pretty tonight…” Ako flicked away a stray hair from his face, looking into his eyes and letting a small smirk take over. “But I can think of something even more beautiful.”


“Sounds like a corny line I would use,” Naruto smiled as he pressed his lips against hers, his hand trailing down her back.


“Well maybe if you talked a little more I wouldn’t have to use corny lines.” She leaned back in to press a kiss or two against his lips, and Naruto could have sworn he had butterflies in his stomach…


In a way it was serene, to be like this with someone… especially when you had never seen it coming. Naruto had always been a pretty open person— he did say so himself. It was just that it had taken him a bit by surprise when he realized that he no longer wanted to be alone. It had been more of a conviction than anything else. He didn’t particularly think that there was anything wrong with it. He knew better than to feel guilty over wanting to have someone close… like this…. It was perfectly normal. Human nature, even. But it wouldn’t have been terribly bad if it had been with the people he really loved. He was done denying it… he was done making excuses to cover his true feelings. Naruto wasn’t going to lie to himself anymore. He knew what he felt. He knew he loved them… both. He knew what he wanted.


And perhaps it was messed up, crazy, and completely abnormal. He didn’t give a fuck though… because it didn’t matter. None of it mattered anymore. It was never going to happen. He had never stood a chance with them anyway… their heads were way too big for them to be able to see past their own perfection. So Naruto had made up his mind to concentrate on this… This feeling that Ako caused in him every time she touched him.


He would forget the pain in his chest that came every time he saw them… every time he’d have to suppress his instincts and hold himself back. Naruto would learn to love Ako. He had to— for his own sanity.


And on the way he’d make her realize that this… this thing that they had together could work out. It could work for them. They could be an item. Maybe… just maybe, she didn’t need other people. Maybe she could need him as much as he needed her. They could use each other to forget. He would use her to forget them. Maybe they could be happy.

“What do you want from me?” He whispered, cupping her cheek, enjoying the feel of her breath as it so very closely fanned his face.

“I want you to want me,” Her small delicate hands snaked under his shirt, small golden hairs tickling her fingers gently.

“I do want you,” Naruto connected their mouths again… because he needed this. He needed something real in his life, something stable… something that wouldn’t betray him.

Ako was refreshingly different than everyone else. She didn’t see him as a monster or mock him like his friends did. She wasn’t cruel like a certain Uchiha he knew. Cruel enough to give him hope that maybe he was good enough, that maybe he could be loved by those he cherished most, only to have him take it all away so harshly. It had all been a joke for Sasuke.

Naruto should have known better than to fall for such lies. There was a small part of him that wanted to believe that he was maybe good enough to experience true love. A part of him wanted to believe that maybe Sasuke’s kiss had meant something. Maybe Sasuke hadn’t been completely messing with his head… maybe the bastard had felt something for him. Maybe it wasn’t a complete show of mockery— to lessen his value as another human being— to completely take away all the fucking pride he had left.

He knew better than to believe that though… He knew better.

When it all came back to it though, Naruto had already known. He’d known that they would never see him for who he truly was. He never stood a chance. Life for the Kuuybi would never be a good one. “I want you,” He whispered in between a kiss, his tongue clashing harshly with Ako’s. “I want you,” His hands pulled her shirt over her neck, throwing it to the side in a desperate heat. “I need you,” And even though his mind was completely made up, even though he wanted this more than he wanted anything else in that moment… he knew. He already knew that he would end up regretting this later. He knew himself so well… He knew this would come back to haunt him somehow.

But that devil voice in the back of his head that had always gotten him into trouble when he was a child kept talking to him… pushing him forward. Kept whispering things to him— can life truly be lived to its fullest if you never have any regrets?


“Then stop thinking so much and just do what you want to do,” She said as she smiled at him, giving him an ease of the whole situation. He was a bit surprised when he felt her hands squeeze his buttocks sensually.


But it felt good…


He rolled over so that he was now on top of her— figuring that if he was finally going to really loose his virginity, then he’d at least have control of it. “Make me want you more,” He whispered seductively into her ear, unclasping the small hooks in the front of her bra that held it together, watching as her breasts suddenly became nude before him.


Ako wrapped her legs around his waist, leaning up to leave pleasurable bites along his neck as she unbuttoned the navy blue shirt that he had been wearing. “I’m going to make you scream.”

“Make me forget… make me think of only you,” He begged… he needed this so badly. He needed to feel this for someone… anyone… anyone but them.


Their clothes were dispersed of in a frenzy, in which they proceeded to rub sensually against each other afterwards. Naruto was having a hard time forming any coherent sentences— all he could think about was the way her touches left him so hot and bothered. The way her mouth did such wonderful things to his small pink nipple, biting down and manipulating it with her tongue… The way her kisses flushed him so completely, making him want more… so much more.


His erection was painful as he rubbed it against her wet pussy. Her moans making him shiver, his body wanting, begging for more... He bit down on her soft breast, ignoring and avoiding her erect nipple, loving how she whined as pleasure was neglected from her at his tease. His hands traveled down her stomach, feeling every sensual curve.


Naruto smiled as his fingers brushed against a patch of soft hair, gently brushing the skin above her sweet spot. Loving how she moaned in agony at not being granted what she most wanted in that moment. He chuckled slightly, leaning in for a gentle kiss as he pressed his palm against her sex. “Moan for me,” He whispered as his fingers played with her.


She writhed beneath him in pleasure, enjoying how he stimulated her with his fingers, slowly and gently gracing small circle movements against her folds… teasing her clit with the slightest touch as she rocked herself against his hand.


She groaned in disapproval when Naruto removed his hand, bringing it to his face and taking a deep breath as he inhaled her scent. He grinned as he licked his fingers, watching her closely, licking his lips and lowering himself, placing his mouth right where he knew she wanted it.


Massaging her thighs, Naruto’s smile grew when the small woman before him bucked her hips forward, wanting him to just give her the pleasure she knew would be great. He blew his breath on her, watching in small fascination as she clenched herself and bucked harder. He needed this.


He inhaled before diving in, his tongue invading the privacy of her outer lips, going in to explore even deeper the inside of her sensitive folds. He drank down her taste, enjoying the bitter taste of her salty liquids. Her sex throbbed against his face as he attacked her small pink labia. He felt his own body becoming increasingly hot— he knew soon he would need more than this… much more.


Naruto’s tongue found her entrance, licking the outside and teasing her slowly before plunging in completely. “Oh gods,” She moaned as her hands grasped his head, pushing him deeper into her. “Fuck me Naruto,” She groaned out. “Fuck me with your tongue!”


Naruto allowed himself to explore her freely. His tongue feeling up the roughness inside her, drinking up her taste in a bit of desperation… His hands held her hips down as much as possible, as she bucked crazily under him.


Suddenly though, Ako pulled him back up by his shoulders, looking into his eyes as the lust glazed over her own. “Fuck me.” She said and managed to scare him a bit. He knew what that meant.


And he wanted to… he was ready.


Naruto placed his hand on her hip, positioning himself between her legs, readying himself for the intrusion that he knew would bring him to his release. “Do it,” She whispered to him seductively, closing her eyes and relaxing into his body.


He easily slipped into her wet entrance, loving how there was absolutely no resistance against him. He sighed before biting down on her neck— experimentally pulling his erection out— before pushing right back in. “Oh Naruto…” She moaned, gyrating her hips against him.


He started a slow smooth rhythm, wanting this to last forever as his body trembled, his heart pounding in his chest. His groans became louder, his moans frequent, knowing he would soon reach his peak.


Placing her hands on his ass again, Ako pulled him closer to her, wanting him deeper inside her, her walls constricting around his manhood. “Ako,” Naruto moaned, biting her nipple once more.


He pushed in, pulled out, pushed in and pulled out… “Just a little more,” He whispered, feeling his victory as it was just around the corner, feeling his release about to be given to him… “Just a little more.”


And there it was.


Ako clamped down on him once more as she took pleasure in her own orgasm, finally milking him— giving him that satisfaction of spilling his seed deep into a woman’s womb. His body shook against hers, their sweat mingling in together… the smell of sex in the air satisfying them both.


“Thank you,” Naruto whispered into her ear as he pulled himself out.

They laid in silence for a while; Naruto’s head rested on her bare breast… he felt as if though everything would be okay again. Ako wasn’t the best person to start a relationship with, he knew this, but she was a great person to let yourself forget things with. She was sweet, kind, and honest. He needed that… he needed her.


His fingers entwined with hers, he squeezed gently, trying to show how thankful he was for letting him do such things to her… Things he knew you shouldn’t let just anyone do. She hadn’t said anything to him yet, and he was a bit worried that maybe he hadn’t been so great… that maybe she had regretted it.


Naruto wasn’t going to think such thoughts though, he wasn’t going to let himself panic until she said something to him. He was going to enjoy the aftermath of sex, he was going to bask in how complete he felt… in how…


What…?


“Ako,” He hissed as the sting of a needle sunk into the skin of his neck. “What are you doing?!” His vision became suddenly blurry— he closed his eyes in an effort to regain some control over his own body.


“Shhh… it’s going to be okay Naruto. Don’t fight it… its less painful that way… I promise.” Ako whispered to him as she cupped his cheek, patting it until he felt unconsciousness get a grip on him.

“Why?” Was the last thing he was able to get out before he was enveloped in the blackness… feeling nothing but hollowness in his wake.

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

Ako bowed before her master, her eyes closed as she shivered in the cold, the danger of knowing she was completely alone amongst the puppet master and the explosion freak making her tenser than normal. She didn’t dare say a word until she was spoken to, she knew better than that.

“You’ve done well… and the rest?” Her master asked as the blond beside him kicked Naruto’s body playfully. Her master’s voice was gruff, as if though he hadn’t spoken in a long time and it greatly displeased him to do so even now.


“I am working on it, but she hasn’t granted me access to anything of importance yet,” She replied in a low voice, daring to look up from behind her eyelashes. “I will give you what you need, master.”


“Good, do not disappoint us… go back to those morons and tell them that you were attacked on Mount Hokage by ninja that were carrying the symbol of Sand. Do what ever you need to do to find the specifics on the position of every ninja protecting the Leaf. We need specifics if this is going to work… we need to know every single little detail, and we need to know their every single strategy and back up plan. I don’t care if you have to seduce her...” Her master started to walk away from them, allowing his partner to do the rest of the work. The blond picked up Naruto’s unconscious form and threw it over his shoulder easily, as if though Naruto didn’t weigh a single pound.


“Know that I will kill you if you end up being useless to us.” The man churred as he smiled cruelly at her. In a way he sounded almost playful, as if though he were joking. She knew better though, she’d seen his wrath before. He was serious— dead serious. There was no way for her to get out of this… and she wasn’t going to try.

“Of course,” She bowed once more and jumped into a tree, disappearing into the night as she hurried herself back to the Village of Konoha… Forming the words in her head that she would use to tell the story she had been commanded to tell to the woman that would save her ass.



If she was going to be completely honest with herself though— it wasn’t all that hard lying to innocent people anymore. She had learned to accept that this was her fate. Because if she even thought about betraying her master, he would certainly kill her, and he would make it painful.

She was one of his best pets, trained well and ready to die for him at any moment if it need be. She wasn’t read to give up her whole life’s work, her love for her master, just for a few people that had treated her nicely. She knew she was completely crazy. She understood that perhaps this really wasn’t her… or better yet, she knew that it really wasn’t her and that she was very much being manipulated… but she didn’t care. Even the hand of god couldn’t save her from her master’s hold on her.

She was trapped forever in the hollowness of his spell. Ako forgot what it meant to be happy— she didn’t want to think of it either. Her existence didn’t really have that much importance… She understood this and she accepted it… She was just another puppet. She loved her master and hated him all at the same time. The lies he’d told her at first… and the truths that came with those lies… The fairytale of being immortal— yet loosing your very soul because of it. Ako was crazy— demented. She knew what she was. She was dead— dead with no purpose— the only thing she lived for was to bring her master happiness and to avoid the pain that he so loved to bestow upon her at every little excuse he got.


As far out as it seemed, as crazy and demented as it was, she loved it all. She loved the lies, she loved the power she got from being her masters most used pet. The others feared her… She loved knowing things others didn’t, the power surge that came from taking the bleeding essence that gave life to another human being— she loved it all.

Arriving at her latest victim’s apartment building, she smiled, walking up the steps that led to apartment number six. Ako thought of what she would say, but it really made no difference, and she didn’t know why she was even trying to make this less painful for the woman. It really wasn’t her problem anyway. She had one goal, one purpose. She knew that her cover story would raise suspicions… but it didn’t matter because that was the cover story she had been given and her master expected her to use it.


She was mildly surprised when the red door suddenly opened and the woman she had come to see stood before her with a gruff grin. She wasn’t going to beat around the bush though… “We were attacked… Naruto was taken and… and…” She watched as Anko’s grin fell immediately at her words, and the woman’s eyes widened.


Ako felt the fake tears pour sourly from her eyes….


“What happened Ako? Who took Naruto?” Anko’s voice was calm, professional, but she could see the worry in woman’s eyes. “Tell me what happened!”


The older woman shook her shoulders roughly, Ako found it rather amusing how only moments ago she was cool, clam, collected, only to break seconds later because she was taking a few seconds extra to answer her question.

“We were attacked… they took him. The ninja from the sand… they took him.” Ako whispered as her eyes widened, giving the impression that she had only just realized how big the situation really was… She inwardly patted herself, she would have made a great actor.

Anko embraced her and she found herself clutching the older woman’s back. Loving how the experienced woman’s heart pounded within her chest. “You’ve got to get him back,” Ako whispered before she buried her face into the woman’s sweaty neck. Loving how warm and cozy she was… Loving the power she held over the woman that was in charge of Konoha’s security.


---------End Chapter-------

AN: Okay so I’ll admit I barely posted this… I practically FORCED myself to work on this. I was so un-motivated this last chapter. I don’t know why. It wasn’t even writer’s block… I onno… It just didn’t feel naturally written… it didn’t flow. *sigh* But I had to force myself because then I know that I would have gotten even lazier and THAT would have led to writers block. *sigh* I have some of the next chapter written… But it probably will take longer because I’ve been so lazy now in these days. Oh, and I’m going to Nebraska on the tenth, and who knows, maybe I’ll work on this after I come back.

But oh my god! SMUT! FULL, BLOWN, OUT, SMUT! *smirks* I bet you guys thought I would never give you smut, huh? So tell me if you liked it, yeah? I’ve never been a good person at smut, and I keep trying to convince my mate to write it for me but she doesn’t like these parings… She’s an Itachi/Sasuke whore. *sighs* but yeah… *smirks* I’ve been in a smutty mood lately. Please review and let me know… I’m sort of paranoid for this chapter.
