Tryst in Wave

Konohamaru rocked back on his heels as he glanced nervously up and down the street looking for Inari. This was the problem with meeting someone for a date, he thought to himself. Someone, and it always seemed to be him, ended up waiting for the other to arrive. Senichi had always kept him waiting too. Although this time he would admit that he had arrived about thirty minutes early. He wasn't really nervous, after all, it wasn't like this was his first date or anything, but he still wasn't exactly sure how Moegi had set this up.

He had confronted her after Inari had left, but she had been evasive. All she said was they had started talking about dating, and somehow from there she had learned that Inari thought he was good-looking. Maybe Inari had no problem telling other people about his preferences, but that didn't seem right to Konohamaru. In the end he decided he would only dig for the truth if this date went badly.

Then he saw Inari coming down the street and he was about to raise his arm to wave, but thought better of it at the last second. His date had showered, judging by the fact that his hair was still wet underneath the fishing hat he wore. It made him a little self-conscious as he had come right from the site and had not even thought about going to the hotel room to shower. He supposed it didn't matter though as he didn't bring much in way of change of clothes.

“Hi, Konohamaru,” Inari said coming up to him. “You look um… good.”

“Thanks. So do you,” he responded looking the teen up and down. A T-shirt and shorts did look good on him.

His date smiled at that before nervously looking over at the restaurant, “It's more crowded than I thought it would be.”

He glanced over at the restaurant which was pretty much full inside, but the patio area still had about half the seats empty. Still, for once, Konohamaru was actually able to see what the other was hinting at. “We could go someplace else, you know. I'm not even that hungry.”

Inari glanced over at him relieved and said, “There's a park that overlooks the water. We can walk around and maybe get something from a vendor.”

“Sounds good,” Konohamaru responded, nodding nervously.

They walked in an uneasy silence until they entered the park. There were several paths to choose from and he let Inari select which one they should follow. After a moment, he broke the silence. “Is this your first date?”

“Yeah, you?”

The young ninja put his arms behind his head and said with pride, “I've had a boyfriend, but we broke up.”

“Oh, sorry.”

“Don't be. We were kind of only dating because there weren't too many other people my age I could date.” That was mostly true, he thought to himself, but Senichi had also been pretty good looking and the two of them have had fun.

“I see.”

Deciding it was up to him to get more than a two word response out of his date Konohamaru asked, “So, are you bi or gay and when did you know?” The other teen seemed to cringe at the question and Konohamaru couldn't help but notice the difference in personality from earlier.

“Gay, and I guess it was when I went to Konoha. I was about twelve then and ran into Naruto. Well, you know.”

The young ninja laughed out loud, but when he saw the expression on the other's face he quickly explained, “I had a crush on Naruto, too. Although, I think my crush started a lot younger than yours did. When I was young I always wanted him to play with me. I think I had one of those little kid crushes on him.”

Inari laughed, breaking the tension, and added, “You know, come to think about it, I think I might've had one of those, too.” They continued walking, the mood lightening until he asked, “What's it like where you're from? I mean I think your teammate seems to know and she's okay with it.”

Konohamaru thought for a minute before answering the question. “I don't think most people care. It's not like I've announced it to the village or anything, but I mean, I don't hide it either. I told my friends and my parents, but beyond that it is sort of there. It's not like there's a huge population I can date though.”

“You told your parents,” Inari said turning to him in amazement. “How did they take it?”

Yeah, definitely still in the closet, he thought. “Well, that's kind of a long story.”

“I'm listening,” the other said anxiously.

“Well,” Konohamaru began with a sigh, “I told them a little after I told my friends. They seemed to take it well and I thought everything was fine. Then a few days later they invited some friends over who just happened to have a girl my age and then a few days later they did the same thing with a different group of friends who just so happened to have a girl a little younger than me.”

He smiled at his companion's expression. “It took me about seven different girls before I realized what they were trying. You see, the only girl I was ever close to growing up was Moegi, and she was a bit of a tomboy. They thought that might've confused me, or at least that's what they said when I confronted them about it.”

“So what happened then?”

“They didn't really say anything. About a month later, though, they told me I was going to have a little brother or sister,” Konohamaru finished a bit bitterly. He knew he shouldn't take it personally. There were, after all, clan considerations to be thought of. The clan had to survive after all, but he couldn't help feeling they were trying to replace him.

“Sorry,” Inari said quietly.

He shrugged. “It's a clan thing and I always wanted a little brother or sister anyway.” Turning the question around he asked, “So what's it like here?”

The other teen hesitated, then said, “Nobody knows. I'm not sure how my mom would take it or my grandfather. Naruto and I have been sending letters to each other since I went to help rebuild your village and I told him in one of those about two months ago. I was worried sick waiting for his response, but he was okay with it.”

“Yeah, he's good like that. So there's no place you could hook up with someone?” Konohamaru asked.

“Well,” the other boy paused and then said hurriedly, “There is, sort of. There's this one bar that some single fishermen go to if they've been out at sea for a while. The bar is not exactly respectable, though, if you know what I mean.”

The young Sarutobi nodded even though he wasn't completely following. Then an ice cream stand caught his eye and he said, “Let's get some. I'll treat.”

They continued on their date, swapping stories and just generally getting to know each other. The two continued to walk until they settled on a bench that had a nice view of the water and the Great Naruto Bridge. Without either of them noticing, an hour had slipped by and then two. It was only the gradual descent of the Sun that brought their date to an end. It was during a lull in the conversation that Konohamaru said, “I have to go. Have the early-morning shift.”

Inari nodded, “Yeah, me too.” There was a moment of silence and then he added, “This was nice.”

Konohamaru let out a breath he didn't know he had been holding as he replied, “Yeah, we should do it again, like tomorrow?”

“I would like that,” Inari said with a nod.

The other teen stood to leave and Konohamaru grabbed his hand. “Hey, could you walk me to the hotel? I don't know how to get from here to there.” He didn't really need to know that, but Inari would not want to be kissed in a public area and it wouldn’t be a real date unless it ended with a kiss. At least that's how he thought of it.

“Okay, I can do that,” the boy from Wave replied.

They walked to The Sea View Inn in silence, but this time it was companionable. There was no one at the desk and Konohamaru pulled Inari up the stairs to the surprise of the other boy. When Konohamaru reached his door, pulling the other boy along, he turned and said, “This is a date, right?” The other nodded and the slightly taller boy said, “So how about a kiss goodnight?”

Inari's expression flickered from confusion at being dragged upstairs to embarrassment. He blushed as he said, “I've never kissed anyone.”

Konohamaru grinned. “That's okay, just relax and it will come naturally. That is if you want to kiss me.”

“Yeah I do, it's just-”

Whatever his excuse was going to be, it was cut off by Konohamaru as he leaned in to kiss the other. At first Inari tensed, but he quickly relaxed and it was only the need for air that broke it. When the young ninja pulled away from him, he saw that Inari had a stupid grin spread across his face and he knew his was just as broad.

“Tomorrow?” Konohamaru questioned.

The other teen was silent for a second and then said, “Definitely.”

The next three weeks fell into a set routine. Konohamaru and Inari had the same morning shift every day, but they tried to keep it professional. That became increasingly difficult as the monotony of guard duty set in. There weren't even the usual false alarms that could usually be counted on to break up the monotony.

About the only thing that distinguished one day from another was the occasional appearance of Mori on the site. He showed up three to five days a week with no real pattern that anyone could see. He never said anything to them, but Konohamaru always made it a point to be on his best behavior when he was around. The man simply appeared out of the woods and would use one of the smaller boats to go to the mother ship and stay on board for twenty to thirty minutes before leaving. His actions became a topic of conversation, but in the end he was probably just overseeing his workers.

Konohamaru's downtime in comparison, though, was far more interesting. Most days he would spend two to three hours with Inari doing something. His boyfriend, as he thought of him now, had successfully introduced him to fishing, which was something they could both do without raising any suspicions. However, some days they would just retreat to the hotel room to play Shogi - or at least that's what they told Akemi when she asked what they were doing up there. They both knew how to play the game, but in reality they spent most of the time talking.

It was kind of fun keeping their relationship a secret and he really was starting to have serious feelings for the other teen. Inari was easy to be around in a way Senichi had never been. The fact that the mission would soon be completed and he would be returning home was something they didn't discuss. Today they were in the hotel room playing a game of Shogi and Konohamaru was just about to win.

“Checkmate,” Inari said as he moved one of his pieces forward.

Konohamaru stared down at the board, first double-checking the checkmate and then looking at his own pieces which were only two moves away from a similar destiny. He looked up from the board and met his boyfriend's smiling face. Smiling back, he stood and came around the little table and with mock anger said, “You! I was about to win.”

Inari stood too and they both grabbed each other as if they were about to fight. Konohamaru gave him a little push and Inari fell back onto the couch pulling the other teen down with him laughing. The ninja silenced that by pressing his lips against the other's.

His boyfriend had improved greatly in the kissing department since their first one nearly three weeks ago, and really, so had he. Their tongues wrestled for dominance and then Konohamaru felt a hand on his back touching his bare skin. His shirt had ridden up in the fall so it might have been by accident, but as an experiment he responded by letting his one hand creep under Inari’s shirt and ran his fingers along the others ribs.

Inari hips pressed up against him and he felt something hard pressed against his own hard thing. For a second they grinded together, but then Inari broke off the kiss saying, “Stop.”

Reluctantly, Konohamaru rolled off of him and knelt by the side of the couch. Inari's face was flushed and his eyes were half closed. They were both breathing heavily and after a minute he turned his head towards him. “Sorry.”

“It's no big deal,” Konohamaru said.

“I really like you.”

“I like you too.”

“I've been thinking about it, but...” Inari trailed off.

“I understand.”

“No, you don't.”Konohamaru glanced at him confused as Inari licked his lips nervously and said, “I've been thinking about this. I really like you, but when your mission's over you're going to go back home.”

Konohamaru nodded, not wanting to discuss the reality of the situation.

“I don't know when I could find another person like you and I want you to be my first.”

The kneeling boy blinked at his companion in shock. “You mean you want to have sex with me?” he said disbelievingly.

“Yeah, I know it might seem fast and all, but I really do like you.”He paused for a second and added, “I just don't really know how to go about it.”

Konohamaru's thoughts attempted to pull him in several directions at once. Certainly, like every teen, he had fantasized about it. First it was with Naruto, then Senichi and about a dozen others in between. Still, he himself had never gone beyond fantasy, and of course, a little reading in a dirty magazine he had. “Well I could get the stuff if you want.”

“Stuff?” Inari questioned.

The young ninja blushed. “You know, like lubricant and stuff.” As soon as he said those word, his eyes widened, realizing that might not have been where Inari was going.

“Oh yeah, I really don't know anything about that.”

The young Sarutobi smiled, “Well I'll get everything.”

“Okay, so tomorrow then?” Inari asked.

“All right, how about another game, then?”

His boyfriend grinned widely and said, “I think I can kick your butt one more time.”

The next twenty some hours were difficult for Konohamaru. Obtaining the necessary materials was easy enough. He had transformed into an older man and walked into a pharmacy to buy what he wanted, but when he got back to the site sleep eluded him. He had thought about this almost since the day he hit puberty, but now that it was here he was worried. What if he did something wrong, or, worse, what if he was inadequate in a certain area? Okay, he knew he looked average judging from the occasional glimpse he had seen at the Hot Springs, and from what he had felt, Inari wasn't much different than him, but still he worried.

Eventually he ended up using a sleep Jutsu to find oblivion for the next eight hours. When he woke up for his shift his worries assaulted him anew. Guard duty was a relief to him today as it gave him something to concentrate on and seeing Inari did help a little. They didn't talk about it, they had to keep their conversation short, but he found it reassuring that he seemed nervous too.

Their shift ended without incident like the other twenty before it. As always, he stuck around until Udon woke up, but as soon as he had stumbled out of the tent Konohamaru left. It wasn't exactly a long trip, especially when he took to the trees. Fortunately, it was a familiar path because he wasn't thinking much. Konohamaru hadn't been this nervous since the final stage of the Chunin exam.

Yesterday, they had agreed to meet at the Inn and Konohamaru arrived there first. He slipped past Akemi who was manning the desk unacknowledged. The girl only ever seemed to talk to him when Inari was also with him. That was a little annoying, but he did manage some sympathy for her. Finding out that your first crush would not return your feelings was not easy. If she had stopped him, he would've said that they were meeting in the room to play Shogi, which was probably the strangest euphemism for sex ever.

Stepping into his room, he looked around nervously at a loss as to what to do now. Where should he put the bag of stuff he bought? If he put it out in the open would that make Inari feel obligated because Konohamaru had already bought the stuff? What if he hid the bag? Would that give Inari the message that maybe he didn't want to do this? All this thinking was making his head hurt as there didn't seem to be any right decisions. In the end, he decided to take the stuff out of the bag and put it on the night-stand that was in between the beds.

Then, he realized that the curtains were open so he closed them, but then he thought it might be too dark, so he just adjusted the shades so that no one could look in. It was then that he realized he was still wearing his sandals. They usually took them off when they first came into the room, but today he had forgotten, so he kicked them off and put them by the door. After that, he looked around for something else to do, but found nothing.

He sat on one of the twin beds and tried to repeat what he knew about sex. Senichi had told him a lot and he even read an article or two about the subject in a few dirty magazines his parents didn't know about. Minutes crawled by and when there was a knock on the door he jumped up. Reaching the door in a few strides, he opened it and smiled at Inari.

Inari smiled back and said, “Sorry. Akemi kind of cornered me for a while.”

“It's okay,” Konohamaru said, stepping back to let the other teen in.

After closing the door they both stared at each other, smiling nervously for a moment and not saying anything. Inari broke the silence, “So now what?”

“I guess we can sit down,” Konohamaru said.

“Okay.”

The two quietly moved to the beds and sat on opposite ones facing each other, and after a second, Inari nodded over at the stuff on the nightstand, “Condoms?”

“Yeah, you put those on when you know, you know-”

“I get it,” Inari said quickly. “But what about those disposable gloves?”

Konohamaru face reddened. “Well, you know, for applying the lube.”

“Oh,” Inari said looking down at his bare feet. After a long moment of silence he looked back up and said, “I'm sorry. I don't know how to get started.”

“Well, we don't have to do anything if you don't want to.” Konohamaru said, partly hoping his boyfriend wouldn't go back on it and partly wishing he would.

“No, I want this with you. I might not have another chance for a really long time.”

The other smiled as he moved to sit next to his boyfriend and gave him a peck on the cheek which felt unusually warm against his lips. “You're cute. I thought so since I first saw you and I doubt I'm the only one.”

Inari turned with a small smile and said, “I thought the same about you.” When he leaned in for his kiss it was on the lips. One of them deepened the kiss and their arms slowly snaked around each other. Calloused fingers moved under shirts and over virgin skin, stroking, caressing. This blissful state of affairs lasted for some time until Inari broke off and started laughing so hard that he fell backwards onto the bed holding his stomach.

Konohamaru was hurt at first, but the other said (or at least tried to through his laughter), “I'm sorry, it's just so...” He cut himself off, as he was hit with another wave of laughter.

Konohamaru smiled as he suddenly felt the urge to start laughing himself, which only caused Inari to laugh more. He ended up doubling over and burying his face in the comforter on the bed. They both continued to laugh which eventually subsided into chuckling.

Once they both fell silent, Inari said, “I feel a lot better.”

“Yeah,” the other responded, realizing that the tension that had existed between the two of them had vanished.

“You still want to do it?” Inari asked with a broad grin across his face.

“More so than ever,” Konohamaru said, smiling. “Maybe we should get naked first though.”

They both climbed to their feet and looked at each other, their faces still both red from earlier. “On three,” Inari said tugging at his shirt.

“All right.”

Inari started to count and on three they both took off their shirts and threw them on to the other bed. Both of them admired the view of the others chest, Konohamaru’s narrow where Inari's was broad. Besides that one major difference, there was little difference between the two of them. Neither had obvious muscles, but every small action showed the hint of them just under the skin. Inari's nipples might have been bigger, but it was hard to tell from Konohamaru's point of view.

“Pants on three?” Konohamaru only distantly realized that he had said it this time as Inari nodded. They both unbuttoned and unzipped before he started counting down, and together on three they only stood in their boxers.

The young ninja felt his member harden as he saw Inari in his boxers with a noticeable lump. If it wasn't for the solitary button at his opening he would be seeing a little more. Unconsciously, he waved his lips. With an effort he pulled his eyes away from down south and looked at his boyfriend's face.

Inari smiled nervously and said, “Okay, let's do this.”

Without another word they both simultaneously lowered their boxers. Konohamaru's erection slapped against his belly before settling at a slight angle, but he didn't pay any attention to it trying to get a glimpse at Inari's equipment. Unfortunately, he was currently hiding it with one hand and he only slowly removed it for the others inspection.

The young ninja wasn't sure what he was expecting, but what he saw looked a lot like his. Inari's penis was erect if not pointing as high. He had a thin patch of dark hair on top and some on his testicles. On closer examination, though, he noticed that one of the testicles was slightly higher than the other giving it an uneven appearance, but it was only noticeable due to his intense inspection.

Realizing that his own equipment was most likely going under a similar scrutiny Konohamaru said, “Hey, I'm bigger.”

“No you're not,”Inari said after a moment.

“Sure I am. Here, take a look.” Konohamaru took two steps forward so that their toes were almost touching and said, “Here, hold it like this.” He positioned his erection so that it was up against his stomach and left it there with only a single finger.

Inari copied his actions and Konohamaru leaned into him until their erections touched at the tip. His was slightly larger, but the smaller of the two said dismissively, “That's because you're just a little taller than me. Here,” he shifted his weight forward onto his toes, causing some of his pubic hair to brush up against the other's. “See.”

He smiled and said while grabbing both of their erections with his hand, “Well I'm still thicker.”

His boyfriend gasped as he grabbed something that had not known another hand for years. It felt weird holding both of their erections. They were both warm with that strange soft, but hard, feeling to them. Experimentally, he squeezed them together and this time they both gasped a little as pre-come emerged from their tips.

“Konohamaru, let's do it.”

He kissed Inari when he heard those words before letting their members go and turning back to grab a condom. Ripping open the packaging with his teeth, he quickly put it on without any difficulty. To his slight disappointment, he didn't really stretch it that much, but the latex was a strange feeling against his skin. Behind him he heard Inari climbing onto the bed as he put on a latex glove and opened the small container of Vaseline which had been the only lubricant he could find at the small store.

Dipping to fingers in, he applied a liberal amount to his index and middle finger. When he turned back around he forgot what he was doing. Inari was on the bed with his knees under him, but spread to either side with his butt in the air. His face was turned toward him and was flushed with color.

“Is this okay?”

The voice sounded as if it had come from a great distance to reach Konohamaru's ears and he had to shake himself out of his stupor. “Yeah, it's great.”

If there had been any heterosexual thoughts in his head they would've been evicted as he realized that this was what he wanted. Inari's buttocks were resting on his feet with his testicles hanging down in between. He doubted that there could be a greater sight to see in all of Wave.

He approached reverently. The pre-come was wetting his condom and pressing against his penis as he laid the ungloved hand on one of Inari's cheeks, caressing it. It was smooth and soft, just like he thought it would be. His partner jumped at first but relaxed after the initial contact.

“Is it okay if I start?”

“Please,” Inari responded.

Konohamaru allowed his thumb to travel down Inari's cheeks, dividing them until he found his hole. Pausing a second to examine it, he brought his other hand up and slowly began to wipe some of the Vaseline around it. He felt his partner tense as he made the initial penetration so he only went in a knuckle deep before pausing. “Are you okay?

“Yeah, it's just,” he trailed off before saying, “Just continue.”

“All right,’ he replied, starting to make small circles before going in deeper. Besides the initial penetration, Inari's insides were surprisingly warm and kind of soft. It was surprising. After a moment, he added another finger with only a little grunt from Inari. He slowly moved his fingers inside the other teen before pulling out after a minute.

The Vaseline reflected the light and that was part of the reason why he couldn't take his eyes off of the others entrance. He quickly spread the rest of the lubricant onto his own latex covered member. “Are you sure it's okay to put it in Inari?”

“Yes,” Inari said breathlessly.

“Okay, I'm putting it in,” Konohamaru said, lining his member up with the others entrance.

He spread both cheeks with his thumbs and began to push in. The young ninja was unsure what to expect, but it was not what he found. His tip brushed against the others cheeks before arriving at the entrance and he began to push in. At first it was a little tight, but once he was a little in the rest slipped in easily. The passage was tight and warm and he pushed in until he hit something within Inari that caused him to gasp.

For a moment they stayed like that, with Konohamaru buried to the hilt inside of Inari. Then he started to pull back, and his partner pushed back unconsciously, not wanting him to leave that one spot. It took several slow thrusts for them to find a rhythm. Thrusting and pushing had its inevitable conclusion. Inari climaxed with a gasp, his entire body tensing including his passage. Konohamaru's member was suddenly engulfed in an even tighter space and that pushed him over the edge, filling his condom.

His climax was different than if he had done it with his own hand. It was somehow more intense, more fulfilling and more exhausting. He pulled out and sat on the bed before lying down next to his lover. For several minutes the only sounds in the room were those of the two of them panting, and then Inari propped himself up on an elbow and looked down at Konohamaru. “So was I okay for a first timer?” He said this with a grin, intending to be funny.

Konohamaru shrugged, “I guess. It was my first time too.”

A strange expression crossed over the others face as he said, “You said you had a boyfriend before!”

Taken off guard, Konohamaru said defensively, “Yeah, but we never did anything like that.”

His boyfriend sat up and he followed, sensing something was wrong, but was immediately pushed back down as Inari said with a grin. “That means you're still a virgin. Can't have that now, can we?”

Konohamaru tried to throw him off and for a moment they wrestled. This turned into fondling. This turned into straddling, which caused Konohamaru to join the former virgin club.
