DO Over Chapter 4


Naruto leaned his head back and closed his eyes, basking in the warmth of the noonday sun as he sat on the rooftop of the school building. He tried to forget the past few hours he'd been forced to spend in the Uchiha's presence.

His black eyes, that husky laugh, and that playful smirk of his; it really was all too much to feel after being reintroduced to him after 3 years. At times, Naruto became angry with himself when he started to forget in Sasuke's presence that they were no longer as close as they once were. The blonde had been easily reminded of how in the past, when the two of them had still been together, that playful smirk had always preordained a kiss from the taller boy and of how Sasuke would lean in and capture Naruto's own lips, giving him no doubt who belonged to who in the relationship. That was up til about 3 years ago when Sasuke had pursued and realized his dream of singing full time. It had seemed so easy for the older boy to forget all that had existed between them then when the Uchiha decided to choose music over their relationship, saying that, as quoted in the letter that he'd sent Naruto (that the blonde had memorized), 'While that little fling I had with you in the past was fun, there is more for me out there than I had ever dreamed existed, and I cannot see how any relationship like ours is important anymore.’ Naruto rubbed his chest at the ache of remembered pain that still seemed to reside there even after 3 years. 'Bastard...' he thought. 'How could you use me like that?'

It was as the blonde was thinking this that he felt warm lips settle onto his own briefly, leaving behind the pleasant taste of peppermint in their wake. Naruto's senses tingled pleasantly as the kiss effectively diverted his thoughts away from far more darker and unpleasant thoughts. "Mmm.... Gaara..." he sighed in pleasure after the lips left his and opened his eyes to stare into warm turquoise eyes whose simple intensity of emotion brought a tightening of pleasure to the blonde's stomach. Naruto pulled Gaara's head down desperately to continue their kiss, deepening it by exploring each other’s mouths with each other’s tongues til threat of suffocation made them part to catch their breaths.

Gaara laughed huskily enjoying the site of his boyfriend's blush of pleasure and was tempted to lean in again to give into the answering hunger he saw in cerulean blue, but he leaned back instead and gave a sigh as he steadied his thoughts. He instead tweaked the blonde's nose with his index finger to grab his attention again so he could show off his latest culinary triumph to Naruto. 'There is always time for making out later,' the redhead thought as he opened the large bento he'd made that morning for Naruto. Inside the bento box, Gaara had packed three types of sushi: eel, tuna and cucumber roll, as well as seasoned teriyaki and grilled meat, and some mochi for dessert. It was different in comparison to what the redhead made nightly at the Sandpiper Restaurant where he worked. At the Sandpiper, Gaara was known as a culinary genius. Though due to the fact that he was underage, the restaurant had hidden this aspect of his identity behind the reasoning (that they gave the press anyway) that he preferred to remain anonymous. Gaara realized since he had started making lunch for Naruto that the blonde seemed to prefer the simplest of foods. Instead of making ramen like his boyfriend usually ate, Gaara had decided to make what resided inside the bento instead since it was healthier for the blonde.

Despite his boyfriend’s athletic accomplishments, Gaara realized that Naruto really couldn't cook to save his life; a similar trait that was held by his foster father, Jiraiya. While at times Tsunade took pity on them, being Jiraiya's closest friend and therefore thought of herself as somewhat of a surrogate aunt to the blonde, she had decided to provide for them once in a while by preparing them a meal. It was, however, in vain, since the rest of the time Naruto ate things that could only be described as inhuman to consume. Gaara was briefly reminded of the time he came over one morning to walk his boyfriend to school and had noticed the expired milk in horror that Naruto had apparently consumed that morning, so it wasn't a surprise that Naruto had ended up going home early that day due to stomach cramps. It didn't surprise him that the blonde’s consumption of ramen was really more out of necessity than of a want of the tasteless (to Gaara) product. It always seemed that Naruto was doing things for his boyfriend, therefore it pleased Gaara that he could provide something that was needed for the blonde and that could also help Naruto to retain more energy than ramen offered for the sports that he loved.

Naruto would complain that it was out of friendship at first then love when he did things for Gaara. But at times the redhead worried that if he didn't show how he felt about the blonde in the things that he could do for him...that if faced with someone else...someone better than him who would do those things for the blonde that he couldn't...that Naruto would leave him. That was something that Gaara couldn't face, since he loved Naruto more than anything in the world and could see no one else that could fill the position in his life. He wondered briefly if was he the same to the blonde. Gaara had to wonder... It was thoughts like this that made the redhead remember hearing rumors in the past from outside sources that the blonde had once had a close relationship with another boy his age during their final year in junior high. Gaara had never seen any evidence of it though, and since Naruto had never mentioned a previous relationship of any importance Gaara had just shrugged it off as speculation. It was only at the beginning of their second year at Konoha High that Gaara could see the signs of depression he'd once seen from the blonde during junior high school. That worried the redhead, since Naruto seemed to be forcing his cheerfulness and wasn’t discussing what was wrong with him with Gaara. This was something the redhead had noticed happening ever since the school day had started that morning, and it eerily reflected the face the blonde had three years ago when they'd first met.

Naruto for his part looked in awe at the various offerings Gaara had made and briefly wondered bemusedly why his boyfriend took the time every morning to do it. Gaara had told him once that it was for Naruto and not to question it, so the blonde hadn't. Naruto didn't like his boyfriend going to the trouble, but he knew that Gaara would be upset because this was how he showed his love. Naruto felt a genuine smile finally form on his face at the thought, and he hadn't much felt like smiling since Sasuke had returned. Naruto easily dismissed any smile that had accidentally happened in the Uchiha's presence considering it as nothing but a delusion he had to work on in the future to prevent. It was while looking up from the bento box and taking a bite of the eel roll that the blonde noticed a frown on Gaara's face. Now it was usually a little hard to tell when Gaara was upset, unless you had known him for long enough and was constantly in his presence like Naruto was, since the redhead had the tendency to dress as a Goth and had a habit of shaving his eyebrows and putting a large line of kohl around his eyes that helped to shield his emotions. Despite the odd combination that decorated Gaara's face, Naruto took note of how much it suited the redhead, especially the tattoo in Kanji that meant “love” on the left side of his forehead that his boyfriend had mentioned he'd gotten while in military school mainly just to piss his father off. Though, thinking about the frown, Naruto thought, ‘It’s not like Gaara to get upset enough to frown unless it was something important.’ Curious despite himself Naruto asked offhandedly, "So...?"

Gaara continued to frown despite the interruption to his thoughts, "So...what?" Gaara noticed the now genuine smile grace his boyfriend's lips as the boy leaned over to gently kiss the redhead’s 'Ai' tattoo then proceeded to kiss a gentle path to the taller boy's ear, reminding Gaara once again of what they had interrupted earlier.

"What's wrong?" the blonde whispered before taking the earlobe between his teeth gently, nibbled at it, and licked the edges, causing his boyfriend to moan and grab his head with one hand and using the other hand to haul the blonde across his lap in a straddling position. Naruto chuckled at the response. "You’re not paying attention, Gaara," he whispered again into the shell of the redhead’s ear then gave it another lick.

"Well... you’re not..." Gaara gasped, "making it easy...."

Naruto laughed then, "And what makes you think I've ever made it easy?" Another nibble.

"Aww fuck this..." Gaara growled at Naruto's laugh and tightened his fingers into the blonde’s hair. He turned the blonde’s head to face his own and began to kiss Naruto forcibly, to which his boyfriend only whimpered his enjoyment in the moment and opened his mouth, allowing the redhead's tongue inside to taste. In the heat of the moment their arousals brushed against one another's, each causing the boys to moan and become more heated in their response to one another by touching and rubbing against each other’s bodies.

A rather loud cough alerting them to a foreign presence was heard through their heated foreplay followed by a monotone voice, "Far be it for me to warn you, but the principal was seen heading in this direction. So you may want to put that on hold to finish later." Both boys paused with widened eyes at the words and pulled apart to look at the speaker who ended up being none other than a blushing Shikamaru who had entered the rooftop area with an equally blushing Chouji, who at the moment was taking the opportunity to view the sky as he ate his chips despite his embarrassment at stumbling upon such a scene.

"Uhm... it’s nice weather we’re having, but um...no clouds.." Chouji gulped down a chip as he nervously bit into another as a means to ignore what he and Shikamaru had interrupted. "Yes we erm...may as well as go back to the cafeteria... Right, Shika?" At this he turned a hopeful eye on his bored looking companion.

Shikamaru snorted again, "So troublesome..." He looked Naruto in the eye as though making a decision, then nodding his head towards Chouji, "We'll try the other building's roof, Chouji. Maybe we'll see some clouds there... As for the principal..." he looked at Gaara then Naruto, "I'll try to direct his attention elsewhere, but," he raised a brow as though he thought Naruto would dispute what he said next, "you'll owe me for this Naruto. Remember that."

Naruto frowned as Gaara chuckled against the blonde’s heated neck. Naruto had the strongest urge right then to slap his boyfriend but nodded his understanding to Shikamaru as the two left back out the door they had come through. The blonde turned back to Gaara and rolled his eyes dramatically at all the dramatics of the two that had left, "Like we’ve never caught them necking..." The blonde's statement caused his boyfriend to chuckle again. "So..." Naruto waggled his brows playfully, "Where were we my Knight in Smexy Goth-wear?" Gaara smirked at the nickname before leaning in again to kiss the blonde in a less hurried fashion, that if possible was even more devastating than the redhead's forceful kiss. They had barely been into the kiss a full minute before they again heard someone clearing their throat nearby to gain their attention. Naruto, now pissed at being interrupted a second time, got up from his comfortable position of straddling Gaara's lap, "Dammit, Nara! What the Hell do you.... want now?..." The blonde paused with his mouth open in shock at seeing, not Shikamaru, but Sasuke. The Uchiha was eyeing them calmly this time, well actually only eyeing Naruto, with a raised brow.

Sasuke crossed his arms and tried to distract his thoughts away from rushing the redhead that was eyeing him bemusedly, as though this was some grand joke that he liked to play on the Uchiha. "So, Dobe, ...I take it that you wouldn't be interested in joining me for lunch after all." Sasuke viewed the redhead for his reaction to the statement, but the bastard (from Sasuke’s point-of-view) was still acting calm, almost emotionless, to the Uchiha's eyes. Again Sasuke wondered what the blonde saw in such a homely person. His rival was not taller than him; had, if possible, paler skin; had no eyebrows but wore a thick line of black kohl around the eyes; had a weird tattoo on his forehead; and had hair that was extremely short and looked liked it was spiked and dyed an unnatural red. Not only all of that, even his clothes, while still the normal Konoha High uniform, were ripped strategically in places and had tiny pins of various bands and some anime placed everywhere, and was missing a tie as well. When Sasuke had been on stage he had never worn such a trashy outfit and had only worn what had been tailored for him specifically, even his school uniform. Even Naruto, despite the somewhat messy and worn state, still wore what was deemed permissible.
The blonde’s face grew flushed with anger at Sasuke's comment, "What the Hell?! I wouldn't eat with you, Uchiha, even if you were the last person on earth!”
"Oh Really!?" Sasuke smirked leaning in to whisper seductively into the shorter boy's ear, "I think I can change your mind about that..." He grinned in triumph at the surprised look on Naruto's face, only to feel himself being torn away from the blonde rather forcefully by his rival for the blonde's affections.

"Naruto's already taken. So I suggest you leave now..." Gaara bit out between clenched teeth. Sasuke glared right back in challenge to the threatening look in his rival's eyes, "I don't think so... I have as much right to him as you do."

"Like Hell you do!" Gaara growled, "I've been with him for over two years. I believe that means, without a doubt, who he belongs to."

"Oh really?" Sasuke smirked, "Then he never mentioned to you about his boyfriend?"

Gaara paused in shock, "Boyfriend?" He looked at Naruto who, for once, looked embarrassed, but that was quickly surpassed by anger as he punched Sasuke to the ground.

"You fucking BASTARD!" Naruto screamed, "You don't have ANY right anymore to say I belong to you! Or did you forget that it was YOUR decision not MINE?!" Tears started to spring from the blonde’s eyes as he continued. "And I don't fucking care if you want to get back together, because I don't want or need to anymore!" Naruto tried to wipe at the tears that continued to fall, causing both Sasuke’s and Gaara's hearts to break simultaneously at the sight. "I love Gaara... I LOVE HIM not YOU!!!... Just," he paused as though exhausted, "...just... leave me alone..." With that he ran from the rooftop with a still confused Gaara chasing him leaving behind Sasuke who was busy nursing the wound inflicted not only to his face, but to his heart, by Naruto's words.
