Gasp!

Chapter Three

Behind the collar Part II



“Hey sorry I took so long. The others are comin’ up. Damn it they were eating at the café opposite this, those cheaters didn’t even consider treating us!” Kiba sulked and took his seat beside Shino and sighed for the opportunities he let pass at the chance of free meals and drinks, he was a little worried for the dark-haired bastard he had to admit that. “And Naruto called, said he’s going to be late for thirty minutes or so. Somethin’ about a high school reunion, I think Ga… urrm… Gaara’s going too. So… uh let’s get started when you’re good to go. They’re just going for appearance so it won’t take long…”



“Hey! Hey! Look Naruto and lizard freak’s on T.V.!” Karin chimed excitedly as she banged the door open and a pocket T.V. on her palm with the screen facing Kiba and the rest. “It says they’re going to perform!”



“What’re ‘ya so excite’t t’bout? It’s just a high school reunion performance.” Suigetsu followed after, picking his ear with a pinky finger when it’s gotten tired of Karin’s shrill voice.



“Baka, I’m just eager to see what that blonde idiot’s use is besides desk jobs.”



“He’s a composer, ‘course he knaws tha’ kinda thang. He just doesn’t do it here, ‘cuz ‘e doesn’t dim ‘ya worthy ‘enuf.”



“Hmph, nobody’s perfect. He’s always acting like such a smartass.”



“Well, better than sum’an who’s got ‘nothin’ ‘ta brag about such as yerself.” The banter continued until all of them including Sasuke had gathered on the lounge sofa to watch, and Sasuke couldn’t help but notice how Suigetsu’s aura has been mellowing day by day, even the cursing had leveled down even though the accent still hadn’t changed.



Kiba slept through the introduction where a girl was playing ‘Midnight Sonata’, he only stood in attention when Shino had elbowed him for Naruto’s part.



“Shh… quiet.”



The emcee introduced the trio that was going to play Pachelbels Canon in D, Naruto holding the cello, Gaara and someone who Karin suddenly blurted out to somehow resemble Sasuke holding the violins.



The music was in perfect resonance, a great classic that even Sasuke admired made everyone in the Gadsen Concert Hall silent. But in his eyes, it was there now, he could finally see what it was, something between Gaara and Naruto that has always been there and that didn’t show when Naruto or Sasuke was with someone else.



The meaningful quick glances, a perfect communication that didn’t need hand gestures, words, or signs but only seen through clear unhesitant eyes.



After the song was another solo but Naruto’s part was already done so the pocket T.V. was turned off and they silently walked to their own instruments, even Karin.



Shino handled the bass, Karin on the organ much to her dismay, proud Kiba on the drums, Suigetsu in the well loved electric guitar…



“Hey, you sure you’re okay now?” Kiba whispered to Sasuke while on his way behind the drum set, interrupting Sasuke who was adjusting the mic stand’s height.



“I’m fine.”



“Sure.”



Sasuke looked back at Shino who just finished tuning the bass. “The speakers ready?” The bassist nodded and that was all he needed, he cleared his throat and hoped for the dulling pain on his body to completely go away.



‘Your music doesn’t depend on what instrument you play Sasuke, it’s how you play it. Just as how a calligrapher holds his brush.’



‘Wow. Deep, and insightful.’



‘You’re not a hopeless bastard, you know. You have a really great voice. I wish I had a voice like you.’



‘Thanks. But I don’t need your pity.’



‘Oh fuck just do it!’



“Okay, one, two--” Sasuke counted, and his whispered voice was drowned by the banging of the drums and Suigetsu’s guitar followed by Shino’s bass and Karin’s quick playing of the organ’s chords.



“Drifting… we are drifting on a river of long-ago… searching… for memories of unchangeable pasts. I see the skies—”



+++



“How far are we going to sway with the wind!? Do you know..? Do you know…? Time is never standing still! The red apple of fate will let us fall, let us fall and roll and stumble and call… me, I am waiting to sink in! Cold ground—”



“Wait—wait Uchiha-san stop.” Dark eyes snapped open and revealed glaring obsidian, sparking for challenge he looked straight through the clear glass mirror separating Naruto and the two bands.



“What?” He nearly barked, pulling the large headphones off his head he hung it on the score stand and raked his hair. Naruto’s been making him repeat the same stanza for so many times that he lost count, he was getting fed up.



That morning, he didn’t know if he just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, the moment he stepped on the floor and jerked his foot away from the cold he knew it was going to be a bad day.



“The timing is supposed to be on four, for the third line of the second stanza.” Naruto explained, the band hearing his calm voice over the speaker inside the recording room murmur against the operator that they’re going from the start.



“Man, are ‘ya tellin’ me I’m gunna repeat tha’ same shit all over again?” Suigetsu whined, massaging his shoulders that have gotten stiff from carrying his guitar and hitting the same notes over and over again.



“Uchiha-san—”



“Uchiha-san, Uchiha-san, I have a name you know!? I’m tired, we’re all tired. Let’s just call it a day…” If Karin and Suigetsu were surprised of Sasuke’s sudden outburst then so was Kiba and Shino, he had been irritable since morning and it looks like he only got worse in the afternoon, maybe he was just hungry, Kiba didn’t know, but he wanted to get this over and done with as soon as possible.



Sasuke packed his things and grabbed his bag from the floor together with the rest of the band members’ bags, all ready to go but he stopped just as he was about to open the door.



“Sasuke. Won’t you stay? Alright, let’s have a short break. We can work this out.” They saw Naruto do hand gestures with the operator, his mouth moving in an amiable manner before the smiling operator nodded and let them have a short break for a while.



Finally the two bands sighed in relief and all of them decided to have lunch on a nearby café before going back to recording while Naruto passed the time between nibbling on a sandwich and grading test papers.



They were all relatively quiet, much to Naruto’s surprise and he realized that maybe it was because of Sasuke’s foul mood. He felt a little guilty to be thankful for the quiet when it was Sasuke being an ass that was the reason but he needed some silence to think of what could be done.



The brooding band leader of the Amaterasu was caught in surprise and interrupted his silent musing when a saucer containing four pieces of strawberry tarts graced his line of vision. Soon he realized that all of the members including Gaara were eyeing him with envy and confusion save for the redhaired band leader of Kirin who if anything eyed him with cold and resenting orbs of blue and green. He was the only one with the said plate. And what do you know, Gaara wasn’t playing his M.D.



“Eat them. You’ll feel better.” Naruto offered, further pushing the saucer towards him with a smile.



“I don’t eat sweets.” He said in a short and clipped manner.



“I know, but it doesn’t mean that you won’t like ‘em.”



“I said I domphff…” Sasuke suddenly stiffened, mouth stuffed full with the small strawberry tart shoved ungracefully inside his mouth and the tip of Naruto’s finger still at the tip of his tongue. Naruto took his finger out before Sasuke bit on the tart reflexively and the sweet juice melted on his mouth, giving him the shivers.



“These are made for people who have high sugar content, I’m a regular here and these tarts are a best seller even to ordinary people.” The blonde song writer and composer took a tart from the plate and threw it in the air before catching it in his mouth with a smile.



“Kiba, you want one too?” Kiba didn’t need to answer anymore, Naruto knew their drummer needed the sweets much more than Sasuke did, for a different matter.



Sasuke remained silent for a while, he had no choice but to chew on the sweet and let it go down his throat with a cup of coffee. It wasn’t just disrespect if he puked them all out, it was rude and unsightly to people around, or it was because it was Naruto that made him eat it or maybe it was a combination of both.



“Have you calmed down yet?” Naruto asked this after a while, the empty saucer and the rest of the plates and glasses now cleaned up by the friendly looking waitress as he put the music scores of their single on the table facing Sasuke. And even though Sasuke hadn’t answered his mellowed look told Naruto all he needed to know. “This section here only has the violin, this is where your voice will stand out among the rest. You’ll be doing some sort of rap, and at the end is where you’ll be adding the chorus’s tone to the rap. If it’s a little difficult I’ll help. Making it sound like you’re singing an Acapella since this is where the violin stops altogether.”



Sasuke could just stare at the finger pointing to indicate what section of the song Naruto was talking about, the finger that was in his mouth minutes ago. “You understand?” The raven nodded in silence, still staring at the sheet of paper with Naruto’s finger long gone. “Good. Let’s wrap this up then.”



+++



*The smut! THE SMUT!!!! The awaited SMUT!



+++



“Wait here.”



Naruto took his seat on the self same place that he had been sitting on for the past twelve years, sighing in comfort at the familiarity of the immaculate place he let his shoulder bag slide down to catch on his wrist and let it fall down the carpeted floor.



His back flopped softly on the bed, legs hanging by its edge as he started to unbutton and unzip his pants together with his underwear. He’s done it so often he wasn’t ashamed of it anymore. He lifted up his hips before it landed back to the cold and silky fabric of the sheets and bent his legs pulling the pants with his hands to come off his feet.



He heard the sound of water hitting the glass door and white tiles of the bathroom while he reluctantly got up the bed and put his pants and underwear to hang over the chair of the study by the window, he was used to just throwing things to where it landed before but he was older and wiser now, doing that would just leave problems later, like taking thirty minutes just to look for a damn sock.



Naruto rolled his head sideways, hearing bones crack and creak as he straightened and stretched his back. When he was already satisfied he continued to undress, tugging the silk scarf and unbuttoning the dark vest he was interrupted from his silent activity when a pair of two long and cold arms surrounded him.



“Cold!” He exclaimed, body reflexively jerking away but those arms prevented him of any movement. The blonde realized that Gaara didn’t even bother to dry himself up, his red hair dripping water down a tanned naked shoulder and his muscular chest up and against his back, a semi-erect cock finding their way to press against the cleft of his ass telling him that there was a definite reason for the cold shower. But he didn’t get it, why Gaara would take a shower when he knew that they were going to do it anyway. Maybe so he would be able to hold out long enough. Naruto mused.



“Then warm me up.” Was Gaara’s leveled answer, his cold lips contrasting to the hot tongue inside as he sucked on the pulse on Naruto’s neck. His hands continued what Naruto was doing awhile ago in a much faster rate.



“We should go to the bed.” Naruto suggested, which Gaara just hummed to.



Naruto turned around, wanting those lips to give him the same heated kiss he’s been receiving for so long that his lips had already memorized the feeling, but it was still so hot, it still turns him on, and it has nothing to do with how good Gaara’s kisses are, maybe a little, but with how they could embrace each other so well they can still do it without the lights on.



Hands roamed against wet skin, Gaara’s own crawling seductively from his tense abdomen to his chest to thumb on the middle of his throat, the four digits cradling the neck. “Uhh…” He moaned as the redheads mouth lapped on the underside of his jaw, he knew what Gaara was going to do next, he was anticipating and impatient, but knowing what Gaara would do next adds to the excitement of it all and they still hadn’t moved an inch from where they were standing some minutes ago.



“T-the be-” Cold lips devoured his own, tongues rolling against each other and their erections rubbing skin against skin, Gaara broke away, licking Naruto’s swollen lips before sucking them hard, breathing hot air he let his lips rest against the blonde’s. “Let’s go, before I change my mind.” Each movement was felt by the other, the hot breath from Gaara from speaking sent Goosebumps all over Naruto he wouldn’t have minded if Gaara insisted that they do it on top of his study, but he wasn’t sure if his back was going to take the rough treatment, he wasn’t as young anymore.



The blonde gulped, making his lips brush against Gaara’s before he nodded. He was led by his lover, taken by the hand he was seated on the edge of the bed and actually surprised on what Gaara was going to do when he knelt in front of him and kissed the back of his hand, deft fingers rubbing the underside of his wrist and massaging his palm. He thought Gaara was going to blow him but the redhead didn’t, instead his lips that had warmed up from the kiss earlier gave butterfly kisses all over the back of Naruto’s hand, his tongue darting in and out of the spaces between each digit making Naruto take his hand back but Gaara held firm, a glint of annoyance making Naruto reconsider.



“Gaara don’t, it tickles.” He smiled lopsidedly, but the look didn’t change and instead Gaara continued to lick on each space. And then he was sucking Naruto’s fore and middle finger, making the blonde clench his eyes tight as he let that hot tongue massage the underside of his fingers while being sucked on until it was kissing his palm to his wrist.



Naruto’s knee jerked, he clenched his free hand on the mattress as Gaara’s other hand crawled from his knee up his thigh. “G-Gaara… t-that’s… I said stop it--” Naruto’s body feels like a dozen string were being strummed in one go, the pleasure was mind shuttering but after all this time he still couldn’t be honest with his feelings on the matter, that what Gaara was doing was turning him on it was enough to make him come.



“Why?” He slowly opened his eyes, feeling Gaara’s lips move against his palm and the other leave his thigh in search for the lubricant they had placed beside him on the bed. He looked straight into Gaara’s eyes, eyes that want nothing but his undivided attention. Naruto heard the lid being closed and he braced himself for the inevitable. “You let Sasuke touch this, didn’t you?” Gaara said before biting on the tip of his forefinger hard.



A suppressed scream tore from his throat as his swelling sex was palmed tightly, the cold lubricant teasing the underside of his cock as it dripped down the middle of his balls to the twitching hole on his ass.



Naruto barely heard the anger on Gaara’s leveled voice, he didn’t even realize that his breath had caught when he gasped for air the moment Gaara finally released his cock and slid up to massage the ring of muscle in the middle of his ass. He knew what was coming so he tried to relax, the pain on his forefinger dull and barely recognizable he gulped down and breathed as a finger inserted inside him effortlessly. After a while another finger joined the first one before they started to thrust in and out, in his clouded eyes he saw Gaara rise from his kneeling and brace a knee on the edge of the bed, hand not letting go of his own and the other not stopping on going in and out of his hole despite how he had already collapsed on the bed, trying to control his body from its trembling.



“Am I not allowed, to touch what is mine?” His lips felt dry and he didn’t know why, he wanted to share spits, he wanted Gaara to crush his lips with a rough kiss.



“Ahh…” His voice shivered with his body as the fingers quickly slid out of him, his wet hand interlaced themselves with Gaara’s own and pinned it down over his head. His thighs were separated just as Gaara had done in the past, his free hand encircled around Gaara’s back like usual and he gritted his teeth and sucked air as Gaara thrust in hard with the usual initial pain he was used to having.



“Ah… ah… w-wait…” He knew that if Gaara started working now he was going to die, right now, inside him the head feels like a rock stabbing his inside. But Gaara suddenly pulled out and thrust in the same strength but to Naruto it was different, he was more sensitive now and that movement caused for him to scream out his pleasure as he drew his head back and raked his nails against Gaara’s back.



His lover didn’t let him recover, he knew that this would be a thorough meal for Gaara, slow and completely sober Naruto was going to be devoured tonight, in a most pleasurable way it was torture.



With another hard thrust Naruto came first with a muffled shout as he bit his lip, tears rolling down his temples and finally Gaara had stopped for the mean time to let him breathe. He didn’t even need to be stroked to come, it was that good but he also knew that there was something wrong, sex with Gaara like this always meant something bad was going to happen.



Naruto’s mind still slow in recovery, Gaara thrust in again. Their bodies were covered with sweat, the blonde’s leg hanging over the edge of the bed and nearly touching the floor while the other was perfectly touching Naruto’s chest as it was being pressed hard against his body by Gaara as the redhead continued to thrust.



Every movement made him shiver and weak in the hips, weak enough for him not to recognize that Gaara had bitten his finger enough to draw blood and make it swell. Inebriated with pleasure his mind made no room for protest, Gaara never relinquished his hold on the hand in which the finger he had bitten belonged but the other one holding Naruto’s thigh wide and open left the muscled flesh and went to wrap around Naruto’s neck, thumbing on the tiny scar there the shape of a distorted cross.



“You’re mine…” The words never got through Naruto’s brain, he was so concentrated on the heaviness settling on his lower abdomen as Gaara continued. “No one else has to know of this.” He felt his hand being squeezed so hard he was sure there were going to be marks there.



“Gaara---I… I’m going to--”



“Not even this voice.” As his second orgasm came his shout became muffled by Gaara’s lips, his insides felt hot with Gaara’s come shooting with every thrust, the hot liquid he could feel dripping down his ass, his own making their abdomens slick and sticky against each other.



He let Gaara rest there above him and collect their sanity for the mean time, but it was going to continue after a while, he knew it, Gaara knew it, until his lover was calmed, and satisfied.

Afterword

(There is an afterword!?)



I wrote this story up on a whim, yes I made this in one day so forgive the grammatical errors, I tried enough to find the faults. Gasp! has been brewing on my mind for quite some time now, just hadn’t found the inspiration to put them into words and then some five hours ago, something clicked and I produced this. I like Pachelbels Canon in D, Gainax used it as the ending theme for End of Evangelion and if you’re interested to listen or download go to Gendou.com for it under Neon Genesis Evangelion’s songs.



Unlike in my other works, Gaara and Naruto’s relationship was already fixed and defined and a stand alone in Gasp!. This story I am writing focuses mainly on Sasuke and Naruto’s relationship on how it’s going to develop and how it had started, what had happened in the past and also there’s some mysteries attached, for example the scar on Naruto’s neck. What do you think had caused that? It also shows my view of music, I love music very much, I love singing as much as listening and writing it. I also tried to write what sex will be if the couple was already experienced and have been together for a long time. Also, I just have a vague clue on how bands make songs so feel free to correct some things to your liking.



I think Sui-chan’s adorable! Karin—Karin’s just a bitch. Sakura’s going to make a brief appearance, yay! Whaddya think about the band names? Amaterasu and Kirin? Originally Sasuke’s band was to be RedNote but what the hell, I think they fit just fine. I thought of it in the idea of Amaterasu and Kirin having the same characteristics of being unavoidable and formidable like I want Sasuke and Gaara’s bands to be.



So… I wrote a little song for Sasuke, even if you hate him. But it’s Naruto that’s singing.



Flame Black

Written by: Shuu (I finally own something! That’s right! This is mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! :gets dragged away by the stretcher:)

Sang by: (I hope) Naruto Uzumaki



My hands walk through the walls of an icy corridor

My blood rushes, asking for more

I am swallowed, my soul devoured

By the black flames of your eyes

Speaks of desire, of my self, and the vice



Hot, hot crawls all over me

Conquering heartbeats

I can barely breathe



Through willing body

No reason for escape

Reverberating, resounding

A reason to be tamed



Chorus:

Flame, black consumes all of me

Breath, hot it’s all lost by me

My sanity (They make me break--)

My sanity (They make me lose--)

Swallow all of me (Black, flame)

It’s all lost by me (Breath, hot)

My sanity…



Bridge: (Wow… there’s a bridge!)



Can you hear (feel) the fires spreading

The air stolen, the heat they never end

The wires vibrating, as if walking naked—

My knees go weak, as if walking (naked) on a single thread



The melody is… nah, treat it like a poem, I won’t even mind if you sing it with an imaginary made up tone. Haha! Just don’t steal ‘em, ‘cuz that’s bad. Is this even worth stealing? But by putting this up am I in a way inviting for thieves to come and steal this!? Nah… people are not so bad as to do that. I love people! And by the way, just for the heck of it I love ITACHI! ITACHI and NARUTO forever!



Usually in times where I speak a lot, only few reviews are bound to exist for me. Do I scare them somehow? But when I leave the story without any after word they send me a bunch of reviews… haa…



Shuu aka Princess Embrace,

Till next time!!!
