*~*~*~*

Kabuto stared at the home that he had left three years before, shifting on his feet as his mind turned back to the blond that he had left behind. When Orochimaru had created Otogakure with Rice countries daimyo’s permission, he had left the village behind with the seal of approval on his paperwork.

Kabuto had resigned his place as a Konoha nin, still a genin at the time so easy enough to do for himself and followed him to their new home. Anko had done the same, resigning as a Konoha genin. It had been Naruto though that been a not so surprising surprise.

The blond had always had a difficult relationship with the man he had called father. Naruto figured that it was because the day his mother died to seal the Kyuubi in a proper Uzumaki seal, had been the day that he had been born, and thus he was a reminder of a hard time. Orochimaru just called Namikaze a fool for living in the past. Even Tsunade called him a fool and considering she was doing some hard-core therapy the last time he had talked with her, that was saying something.

 Nearly a full year before, Konoha had reached out for an exchange program, having heard that they took in those from other villages to help them learn how best to interact with others. Somehow Otokagure had become the ‘Therapy Village’.

Shaking his head free of those thoughts, Kabuto slowly breathed out, glad that he was home and could stay home. Konoha was a nice enough place, but it didn’t feel like home. Not when he had a blond waiting for him to come back to the village. Especially since Naruto had admitted that those he had dated hadn’t felt right and he wanted Kabuto to return sooner rather than later.

He looked to the side of him where Kakashi stood, raising an eyebrow at the silver haired man. “Come on. I have other things I wish to do,” he drawled, leading the way to the main building where they would check in. Kakashi hummed and followed after him, looking around. It took them all of ten minutes for Kakashi to be checked in, handed a map of places he could go and where he couldn’t, and for them to head up to the Kage’s office where Orochimaru waited with Sasuke.

Kakashi tensed when they walked in and a blur of burnt orange and blond jumped on Kabuto, taking him down in a tumble. Turning around, his eyes widened at the sight of whiskered cheeks, sparkling blue eyes, and a long blond braid that was surprisingly long.

“You took to long,” Naruto breathed, Kabuto chuckling and stroking his cheek, pulling him into their first kiss. It was soft and chaste, and full of promises of never leaving again.

“I’m sorry I took so long, but I had a lazy dog following me,” Kabuto teased after he pulled away from the kiss. Naruto looked up at Kakashi and raised an eyebrow.

“Well, I’m sure Oro-kun will be nice enough to tell him all about me while I take you home and make you shower. I’ll make dinner but don’t expect me to put out just yet,” Naruto teased. “I’ve been waiting for a year. I can wait a few more days.”

Kabuto chuckled as the blond stood up, allowing himself to be tugged up by his partner. Orochimaru rolled his eyes and waved them off before waving to the chair to explain just why Naruto was there. And why he had jumped Kabuto the moment he had seen it.

All around, Kakashi wondered just how much sucking up he had to do before he could threaten Kabuto like a proper big brother.
