The Choices Between Friends

Chapter 33:



A Glimpse of a Dark Shadow

 

Nar grabbed Neji’s hand and drug him out the back door. He could barely sit still as he waited for Neji to pull out of the parking space. He texted Kiba. [Dress Code?]



[Slutty.] Was the other man's response. Nar giggled. Neji gave him a questioning glance. All the beautiful man got in return was another one of those blinding smiles.



[Seriously… Where we going?] Nar not only had to be sure Neji looked good, the pretty blond boy would want to be sure he looked his best as well.



Kiba growled in irritation. [Fine. That goth bar.]



Nar bit his lip, trying not to laugh. As much as Kiba bitched about it, everyone knew he had a secret fetish for goth fashion. He waited until they were stopped at a light before he struck.



"Um, Neji?" Nar whispered sweetly, while cuddling up against his lover's side.



Nar's voice was dripping with enough false sweet innocence that the normally confident Hyuuga was suspiciously cautious.



"Yes Tesoro?" He responded calmly even as he braced himself for what his unconventional lover might want.



Nar heard the trepidation and barely stopped a giggle. "Can we go shopping real quick? I need a few things."



Neji glanced down at the head nestled upon his shoulder. There was a delicious warmth spreading from the places Nar's body met his. It was soothing and wonderful. Whatever his angel wanted, Neji would supply, there was never any question about that. "Will you let the others know that we will be late?"



"Thank you Neji." Nar practically purred as he pulled his phone back out of his pocket. The warm feeling spread further through his lover's body. They both smiled happily for different reasons.



Nar knew just where they needed to go. "Neji, take a right at the next light please." Neji just nodded. Nar sent his coconspirator one last text. [Gotta stop for clothes, be there soon.]

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



"Hmmm...." Nara sighed in his sleep. Kiba chuckled. He had the sleeping man nearly naked now. "Wha...? Hey!" Nara made a sleepy grab for his boxers only to miss the fast disappearing slip of clothing.



"Relax sleeping Beauty. Just have to get you ready for the ball."



Kiba's eyes were focused between Nara's bare legs and his smirk was frighteningly sexy. Nara's hand moved on it's own to cover a part of his body Kiba was well aquainted with. A moment later he realized how stupid he looked. "What the hell are you up to now?"



Kiba grinned and Nara would have fled if he hadn’t been buck ass naked.

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



Nar knew just the place to go to find the perfect clothes and accessories. There was no other way to go with Neji but sexy aristocrat, with emphasis on sexy. They pulled up in front of another old rundown building, one of many in this part of town. Neji was drawn to the mystery of what each one had once been and what it could be with the right creative eye. Nar pulled him from his musings and through the door of the local thrift store.

“I’ll be back in a few minutes. Don’t worry.” Nar leaned over and kissed Neji’s cheek sweetly before hopping out the door and darting into the building.



"Hey! Anko! You in here?!" The loud shout had the myriad of necklaces and other jewelry hanging in various places amongst the mountains clothes and overstuffed racks.

 

"Whaddaya want brat?" Nar’s craziest friend snuck up behind him and whispered in his ear creepily.

 

"Hey, Anko!” Nar hugged her tightly as payback for creeping him out. “I need a favor." The blond boy smiled at her sweetly.



The woman rolled her eyes. "When don't you?"



"Ah, come on. I helped you out last time." Nar's smile told her he had her.



Nar had played DJ at one of Anko's shows. Anko was a wannabe fashion designer. She was good with design, but shit with people. The second trait had held her back. The thrift store was a way to make money and keep her side business going.



"Fine. So, whaddaya want?" The woman asked with her hands on her cocked hips.



"Remember that goth performance artist who asked you to design for him?"



"Goddamn rotten welshin’ bastard." Anko cursed vehemently.



Nar looked back at Neji and grinned. "You do remember!" The blue eyed brat winked at her.



"I was wondering if we could borrow some pieces." Nar jerked his head in toward the car.

Anko peered out the window at the expensive car waiting at the curb.

Anko pursed her lips in concern. ‘What are you doing with anyone who drives something like that? She thought before pulling her eyes back to the brat. "Why?"



Nar grinned mischievously. "We wanna play 'dress up'."



She didn’t have any reason to say no, she really tried to find some. “You break it, you bought it and I won’t give you a break either.” Na hugged her again. She tried to pretend her heart didn’t melt when he did that. She was a tuff wrong side of the tracks chick and she did not melt for any cute little brat.

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



Shika was just stepping out of the bathroom when a blond and brown blur pushed him backward into Kiba. "Sorry Nara!" The blond called as the bathroom door slammed shut.



"Oh shit, he's in on it too!"

Kiba actually laughed out loud at that. He got an elbow to the stomach for that.



From the other side of the bathroom door they could hear Neji's smooth voice. Nara couldn't help but giggle. "Tesoro... I... now... just a moment... what... ahhh... now see here! Whoa...!" There was a thud and the door shuddered under the weight of two bodies.



It startled Nara, he stepped back into Kiba's waiting arms. Kiba's keen eyes had taken notice of how the small towel barely covered Nara’s cute little ass. He gripped one cheek firmly, squeezing pleasantly. The other reached around to cup his lover's crotch. "Can you imagine what they're doing in there? How they must look right now?"



Kiba felt Nara's cock twitch. He kissed his lover's neck, gently squeezing Nara's ass and dick. Kiba loved to tease. Nara's eyes fell closed and he let his imagination run wild.



“Come on get dressed or we won’t ever make it out of here. His strong hand slid up under the small towel the stroke Nara’s smooth tight ass suggestively. Nara grumbled about ‘the dick-tease’ as he trudged the few steps from the bathroom door to his bedroom.



A few moments later, the brunette yelled from his bedroom; "Kiba?! What the fuck is this shit?"



The wolf lounged at the door while the genius with a dumbfounded look on his face held a very small pair of black pants that had been ripped all to hell. First off, Nara was sure he'd thrown out every pair of pants that size in high school. Second, he'd never owned a pair of pants that looked more like shredded tissue paper than fabric. There was also a tight red tank top and a baggy black T-shirt with nearly as many tears as the pants lying on the bed. "Seriously, dude, WHAT. THE. FUCK.?"



Kiba grinned like a demon and launched himself at his friend and lover. "Oh SHIT!" was all Nara managed to cry before he was pinned beneath a far heavier body than his own.



"The pants are yours from high school. You know your mom, she never throws anything away. She put them in a box at the back of your closet ages ago. The shirt is mine, the tank was in the box." Nara squirmed, trying to break free of the death grip Kiba had on his wrists. "Don't remember you ever wearing that before. Too bad too."



"Damnit... argh," Nara grunted and groaned trying to wriggle free of the crushing weight holding him down on the bed. "Fuck-ing bastard..."  Kiba ground down against his lover mostly just because he could, but also to derail Nara's train of thought., "ahhh... shit," The slighter man gasped, his towel had been lost in the struggle and the feel of Kiba's jeans against his bare cock was almost painful, but still very stimulating.



Those dark brown eyes glaring up at Kiba lost the determined glint and became a little unfocused as Nara gasped in surprise. Kiba knew what that meant. 'Success.' He sealed Nara's fate be taking his lover's mouth and kissing him breathless. Before Nara could rebound Kiba attacked his sensitive neck; licking, sucking, and nibbling until Nara was gasping and squirming in complete pleasure.



"You always make the sweetest sounds Nara-kun. It's hard to hold back, but there are rules after all." Kiba was smirking evilly.



"Twice asshole... That's twice you've been a total dick tease." Nara huffed at him when he realized that for the second time he was hard and they were not going to be able to follow through.



Kiba kissed his nose playfully. "Be a good boy and I promise I'll do a whole lot more than tease." Nara glared at him, his thin lips pulled into a tight line of disbelief and suspicion. Kiba bent down to kiss his neck sensually. "Trust me baby, be a good boy and all three of us will give you exactly what you need."



Kiba's hot breath and soft wet lips made Nara shudder. 'Want.' was the only thought going through his brilliant mind. "What do I have to do?" He asked in a breathy voice.



"Play dress up and act the part. That's pretty simple, right?" Kiba crooned against his lover's shivering flesh.



"Mmmmnnn, 'kay. But I get everything I want." Nara growled as he rocked up against that rough fabric.



Kiba bit down on his neck a hard enough to send a shiver of pain down his spine. "Yes baby, everything you want."



Nara didn't put up much of a fuss as his lover 'assisted' him in dressing. Kiba deviously kept him off balance and aroused through the whole process. He did fuss and pitch a general fit when Kiba insisted he wear his hair down. In the end Kiba's tenacious determination won out. Nara threw his hand up in the air. "Fine fucker, do what you want."



The pout on his lover's face was adorable, but he wanted Nara to play along, so he offered another incentive. He leaned down and whispered a new promise into Nara's ear. The pretty brunette blushed cutely. There was something he really really enjoyed, but would never ask for. Kiba had just promised to give him that blissfully humiliating pleasure.

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

On the other side of the door, Neji found himself pinned half naked as Nar kissed the breath out of him. Nar took advantage of Neji's confusion, reaching between them to unbutton his lover's pants. His warm hand slid inside Neji's boxers caressing and fondling the cock and balls he'd come to love so much in such a short time. Neji groaned; his hands came up to slide into the blond's wild hair. He gently pulled his Tesoro deeper into their kiss. 



With one hand Nar worked Neji's remaining clothes off. The other moved up to caress Neji's firm smooth chest. One finger traced the scar slashing the gorgeous man's torso. Neji shuddered in response and started to pull away, the door stopped him from getting far. Nar followed him, pressing his own warm chest against Neji's warm skin.



Neji was pulled forward to step out of his pants. Nar had already removed every other article of clothing. The young Hyuuga was now completely bare. Nar smiled up at him. "Hey Neji?"



"Yes, beloved?" Nar bit his lip. The "L" word caught him off guard. Neji saw the panic in his big blue eyes. He still didn't understand it fully, but he responded to it. He brushed his lips against the soft skin of Nar's forehead. "What are you and that 'devil' up to my angel?"



Nar blushed and ducked his head. "We wanna dress up sexy, go out, show off our hot 

boyfriends, and play." When his head came up he had the most sinfully sexy and mischievous smile on his face.



Neji laughed, clear and bright. He could deny this angelic demon nothing. "Oh really? Well, then..." He began to pull Nar toward the shower. "We shouldn't tarry here."



Nar was thoroughly washed and caressed before he was led from the shower and toweled off lovingly. He had gone from the aggressor to a pile of warm, horny goo. "So what now Tesoro?" Neji asked him as he held toweled his own long hair.



"Huh? Oh! Yeah!!" Nar grinned. "Now we dress you up all sexy and go out and play."



"And what about you?"



"Me? Oh, I got some things for me too. Does that mean you want me to dress up sexy too?"



Neji leaned in and kissed his lover. "I want all of you, everyway, but yes. I would very much like you to dress up for me."



"Nara's gonna be dressed up too..." Nar grinned and rubbed the back of his neck subconsciously. "I don’t know about Kiba."



Neji smiled and kissed the blond head. "I think we should all 'dress up' and go 'play'. What do you think?"



Nar hugged him suddenly, his towel slipping from his waist. He buried his face in Neji's strong chest. "Don't smile like that Neji. It's not fair."



"And why is that Tesoro?"



" 'Cause when you do, I kinda forget to breath."

“We can’t have that.” Neji whispered as he gently kissed the tanned skin of Nar’s neck. “We should not keep the others waiting. Besides, I would very much like to see how you ‘dress up’.”

Nar looked up and grinned. You first.”

 

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

It wasn’t easy for two of them to get dressed at the same time, so Nar wrapped a towel around his waist and happily assisted his lover. Neji was intrigued by the garments Nar handed him to don. When he was fully clothed it was Nar’s turn.

 

Neji’s next surprise was the makeup. Nar’s to be specific. The blond’s lips were lined with black liner that he had faded in toward the middle, making the pretty heart shaped lips seem even fuller than normal. His eyes were rimmed with shimmering eye shadow giving them a smoky look.  His naturally dark eyelashes ensured he did need any eyeliner or mascara. Nar wouldn’t let Neji see his own face after the blond had finished ‘dolling him up’ as Nar had put it.

 

They stepped out of the bathroom. Nara was sitting on the arm of the couch.  Kiba was just stepping out of the kitchen into the living room. Nara slipped of the chair and landed on his rump in shock. Instead of swallowing the drink of water he’d just taken, Kiba spewed it all over the floor.  No one said anything for a few moments.

 

Nara broke the silence as he got to his feet rubbing his ass with one hand. “My ass already hurts.” Nar broke out in hysterics and Kiba guffawed. Nara pretended not to steal glances at Neji and Nar. They both looked so amazing. Neji caught the glances and started to move forward, Nar moved first. He grabbed Nara’s arm and drug him toward the bathroom. “You’re turn.”

Nara dug his heels in. “Wait! I’m already dressed.”

 

Nar smiled evilly. “Makeup silly.” Nara’s overly horrified expression almost made even Neji chuckle. The bathroom door closed for a second and opened again. Nar tossed a bag at Neji, it was the one that had held their outfits. When he caught it, Neji took note that there were still a few items inside. Nar nodded toward Kiba and grinned at Neji. “Good luck.”

 

Neji opened the bag and smiled. The predatory look he gave Kiba had the wily brunette headed for the door. Neji reached it at the same time and pushed it closed the moment he had it open barely an inch. “Teufel, are you familiar with the phrase ‘tit for tat’?” Kiba cringed and nodded. Neji’s hot breath on his neck made him shiver in anticipation. Neji wrapped one arm around Kiba’s waist and pulled the man back against him. “I think I would like to see what our angel has chosen for you. I very much like what you chose for our beauty.” Kiba bit his lip and took a deep breath.

 

“Come with me Teufel.” It wasn’t a request or a command; it was more the ending of a magic spell. Kiba was suddenly very compliant. Neji had a magical quality about him. Kiba followed Neji to the bedroom like a good little puppy.

 

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

 

They took Neji's car. He had insisted. It was safer than Kiba's hot rod and if possible his first priority was their safety and happiness.

 

"Kami Neji, you really really have to let me work on this thing. It has no personality at all." Kiba groaned as he rode in the back with Nar, sitting behind Naji.

 

"I like it. It's sleek and kinda sexy. Like Neji." Kiba made a face at his friend and got a good look at Nar's cute little pink tongue in answer.

 

"It suites you," was all Nara said as he sat in the front seat, listening to the two in the back.

 

"Thank you." Neji nodded to Nara and Nar. "Perhaps we could find something for you to do on the interior..." He conceded to his other lover in hopes of placating Kiba. He had heard Kiba talk about his work and knew just how passionate the wild brunette was about restoring and modifying automobiles. Neji didn't understand it, but he respected Kiba's passion.

 

Kiba made a rude noise. "I'm a body and engine man. The porcupine does all the interior work."

 

"Poor Kiba, he has to ride in something straight off the showroom floor and it's killing him." Nar made a crying face at his friend before laughing wickedly.

 

Nara looked back just in time to see Kiba take a playful retaliatory swipe at Nar who dodged and stuck his tongue out at his friend again. "Something tells me this is hardly straight off the showroom floor." He raised an eyebrow at Neji who frowned. It was the closest thing to fidgeting a Hyuuga like him would ever come.

 

"So what mods does this thing actually have?" Whatever they were it was subtle, Kiba knew that much. Neji frowned again, not sure how the three of them would take this information and absolutely unwilling to lie to them. 

 

"Come on Neji. Now we all wanna know." Nar leaned forward and smiled at him in the review mirror.

 

"There are roll bars throughout, bullet resistant armor plating in the body panels, and bullet resistant glass. The undercarriage has been upgraded to endure greater stress and the chasis has been reinforced for the possibility of an explosion underneath the car."

 

Those big blue eyes blinked in surprise. Kiba bit the inside of his cheek and stared at the back of Neji's seat. Nara just nodded. It made perfect sense to him.

 

Nar bit his lip. "Neji? Are there really people who'd want to hurt you like that?"

 

Neji pulled the car to the side of the road, stopped and turned the engine off, before turning to look at the three of them. Nara didn't look terribly phased, just uncomfortable with the subject. Kiba gave him a hard look and he knew what it meant. 'If they get hurt because of me, I'll let him do whatever he wants, after I've destroyed the attacker of course.'

 

It was the tears in Nar's eyes that stopped his heart. He reached between the seats and grasped a trembling hand. "No one has ever made any attempt upon me or threatened to do so. These are precautions." Many times such precautions were more of a deterrent than anything else. 

 

'He's hiding something.' Nara watched his lover and knew Neji was not lying outright, but there was a lie by omission there. 'No one has ever targeted him...' Nara's eyes moved on their own, glancing at Neji's stomach. They darted away as soon as he realized what he was looking at. 'Oh sweet Kami!' Nara suddenly felt very sick. He doubled over as if in pain.

 

"Nara? Hey, are you okay?" Nar was out of his seat belt and between the seats before anyone else even knew what had happened. 

 

"Yeah, I'm just hungry I think..." He was anything but hungry.

 

"We'll get something before we go to the club." Nar stroked his hair. "You never eat right." The blond turned to Neji. "There's a nice little family place a few blocks up." Neji nodded.

 

"Kiba? Will you trade places with me?" Nara asked quietly. He just really needed some space between him and Neji, before the beautiful man caught on. 

 

"Sure." Kiba got out quickly, jogged around the car, and held the door for Nara. Nar slid over so that his lover could slid in next to him. Nara laid his head on Nar's shoulder and closed his eyes hoping no one could read his thoughts on his face.

 

"Perhaps we should do this another time?" Neji watched Nara in concern. In his circle there were many geniuses, none like Nara, but still he knew that geniuses were prone to physical ailments like ulcers and such. He was very concerned.

 

"No, I'll be okay once I eat something." Nara fibbed again. The last thing he needed was the three of them hovering over him all night. 'I just need to calm down, that's all.' He snuggled into Nar's neck, kissing the soft tanned skin. "I wanna have some fun, and I sure as hell didn't get all dressed up and made up for nothing." Nar shivered as those soft lips and that warm breath caressed his neck. A pleasured glow spread across his cheeks.

 

The other two saw it all. Neji looked at Kiba inquisitively. "Yeah, we'll feed him, play with him, then fuck him." Nar giggled and blushed. Nara gave him a sour look. "Just like I promised him earlier." The look he got would have made a lemon pucker. Kiba just grinned.

 

Neji smiled at his bold lover before turning the key and pulling back on to the road. Prepared to  follow Kiba's directions to the restaurant.

 

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

 

Neji held the door open while Nara and Nar stepped through the door. Kiba was standing behind him admiring the way the tight black pants hugged Neji's sexy muscular thighs and his sweet pert ass. Neji couldn't keep his eyes off his other lovers as well. The long shirt just showed the slightest hing of Nara's tiny tight little ass. Nar's legs were bare from the top of his chunky knee high boots to the bottom of his black thigh length shorts, it wasn't a lot of skin, but it was inticing just the same.

 

They both looked adorable. Nara's hair was down, the ends caressing the exposed skin of his shoulders where the neck of the t-shirt was loose and open. Kiba had styled and gelled his hair so it was wispy and curled at the ends, making him look like there was a permanent breeze playing with the dark brown strands. Mascara made his already thick dark eyelashes so luxurious a supermodel would be jealous. The hint of red eyeshadow Nar had applied to the outside corners of his eyes made them glow like dark coals.

 

Nar's black, white and red streaked t-shirt fit him well, showing off his slender waist and firm pectoral muscles nicely. There were thick looped chains draping from each hip to the bottom outside seam of the cute shorts. His blond hair was streaked with chunky stripes of black. Those lovely blue eyes were rimmed with charcoal eyeshadow and dark eyeliner drawing the eye of every person in the restaurant.

 

They were gorgeous. Neji thanked Kami for maybe the thousandth time since he'd met them, so grateful that he had. Kiba drew him out of his reverie by pinching his ass. "Come on your highness, shouldn't keep your harem waiting." Neji shot him a look. "What, you look like the prince of darkness in that get up."

 

Kiba grinned and his pointed canines were very evident. Nar had insisted on rouging his lips. Now Neji knew why. There was no way anyone would miss those vicious looking fangs now. Neji felt an unmistakeable urge to run his tongue over those jagged edges. He took a deep breath and met Kiba's smirking eyes with his own lust filled gaze. Kiba swallowed hard. "After you." Neji whispered in a silky voice that gave his lover chills.

 

Kiba slipped past him and walked self-consciously toward the booth the others had chosen. Neji watched him with a small smirk. Oh how he loved to play with Kiba. Nar had chosen well for the wild one as well. The black trip pants were loose, but when he moved, the material clung to his backside, providing glimpses of that round bubble butt that Neji knew down to powerfully muscled legs and up to a far more slender waist than anyone would have guessed. The tight back tank top fit like as if it had been painted on and Kiba's muscular arms were his more than noticeable.

 

Neji let the door close behind him. His long chocolate hair was loose down, it tickled at his upper back where the loose sheer black shirt's wide open neck left the flesh completely unprotected. The shift was long sleeved and loose. There were darker patches that made it look as if the material had been snagged and damaged. These patches were randomly placed across, or so Neji thought.

 

Nar knew how Anko had achieved the affect. She'd been very proud of it. He'd explained where Neji's scar was, he was certain that Neji would not be comfortable going out in public in a see through top, but he'd deal with it if Nar asked. There was no way Nar would ask Neji to show his scar to the world. Nar knew something about scars.

 

Anko had managed to ensure proper coverage without it detracting from the style of the shirt. This way there would be nothing under the shirt but Neji's beautiful skin and one perfect pink nipple was perfectly visible for all the world to see. Neji had never felt so exposed before.

 

The black worn looking jeans fit him like a glove, leaving very little to the imagination. There was a thick dark blood red belt with an tarnished sliver buckle and the high black biker boot had been a little loose. Nar had fixed that with a second pair of socks. There was a thin black choker around his neck, accentuating his elegant long pale neck.

 

Nar seemed to be feeling a little better as he joined them. He gave Neji a shy smile as Neji slid into the booth next to him. Nar and Kiba were on the other side, facing them. Nara did not want Neji looking directly at him. He'd asked Nar if it would be okay if Kiba sat with him instead. Nar had winked at him knowingly, misunderstanding him completely. 'That's fine. It's better if he thinks I just wanted to sit next to Neji. Just fine.'

 

Neji smiled at Nar. His eyes were rimmed in a pale shimmering eyeshadow and lined with a smokey grey eyeliner. They looked almost purple in the dim light. His pale skin glowed with a soft inner light and his lips were bare and pale. Everyone at the club would notice him and be filled with envy, either of him or of his companions. Nar felt a little moment of superiority as he looked from Neji to Nara. 'They're both so amazing.' Nar felt like the luckiest guy in the world. He didn't know that the sentiment was shared by everyone at the table, including the two men smiling back at him.
