Societal Gap

A/N: I am SO SORRY this took so long to get up. It was an in between plot points chapter and I found it VERY hard to write. But on the plus side the next few chapter should go up really easily!! Thanks to my supporters and I’m sorry I made you wait, although the first few chapters I was pretty much writing every moment of free time I had so they may not always be that quick.

Disclaimer: I don’t own the Naruto characters but Rei is all mine!

Warning: Umm… Citrus… umm, language maybe…I don’t feel like reading it again to find what all is in here. It’s rated M or R or… whatever! So if I miss something feel free to bite me!

Societal Gap

Forbidden Fruit

The three of them headed up to the cottage, Sasuke and Naruto both avoiding Rei’s gaze.

“Why don’t you two go ahead and change, then we’ll get started.”

The teens returned from the cottage a few minutes later to see Rei holding two long bundles wrapped in old burlap.

“Sooo… what kind of training are we doing?”

“Well I thought we’d work on something practical.”

“Oh come on Rei. How many times do I have to learn about soil?” She just smiled and threw one of the bundles to him. It was wrapped in a cloth and bound with twine.

“No!”

“Yes.”

“No way!”

“Yes way.” Naruto’s fingers were shaking so much he could barely undo the twine.

“Oh my god! A sword! Oh Rei you’re the best!!”

“Yeah well, it’s probably over due. Sticks just won’t cut it anymore, you need to get used to training with a real weapon. Get a feel for the weight.” Naruto swung the sword a couple of times. Sasuke couldn’t help noticing the determined and poised look he got when the sword was in his hand. He smiled and walked over to the boy, quickly correcting his stance and grip.

“Feet shoulder width apart. Two handed grip, thumbs lined up.” His heart raced as moved his body close to the blond and began instructing him on the correct ways to parry and thrust.

“Sasuke.” He looked up, as Rei was unwrapping the other bundle. She tossed him his sword and he looked shocked.

“I thought I’d lost this.” He fingered the ornate scabbard and hilt lovingly.

“Well, I thought it would be prudent to get to know you a little before I rearmed you. No offence.” Sasuke smiled.

“Can’t say I wouldn’t have done the same in your position.” He smiled at her, noticing how her gaze rested on the sword in his hands.

“Would you like to…” he offered her the sword.

“Do you mind?” He gestured for her to take it again. She ran her hand along the shiny hilt and grasped it, swiftly pulling it from the scabbard in the pale teen’s hands. Swinging it a couple of times experimentally she then held it out in front of herself and looked down the blade.

“Impressive. Lighter than I would have expected, well balanced and perfectly straight. Not to mention beautiful.” She thrust the point out and swung it a few more times from the wrist before handing it back to Sasuke.

“The lady knows her swords.”

“Well I’ve never handled one like this before. I don’t know how I’ll ever be able to go back to my old one now.” She replied smiling widely. He smile faded a little when she realized that Naruto would probably feel the same way about life when Sasuke left. She shrugged off the nasty thought and allowed the boys to continue practicing. Noting in detail all the lessons the older teen was giving, swinging her sword to copy his movements. Sasuke was obviously well trained and was improving their skills immensely. After a couple of hours Rei brought out three bows and quivers. She handed one with rough carvings on it to Naruto and another with a sleek design and ornate carvings to Sasuke, who admired the bow, obviously impressed.

“She made it herself. It’s amazing isn’t it? I made mine but it’s not as good.” Naruto looked slightly down trodden. Sasuke took the bow from Naruto and examined it.

“Good form, tight string, nice and smooth. Don’t be ridiculous this is a fine bow.” Naruto grinned from ear to ear at being complimented by his new admirer.

“Besides Kit, you made that one almost two years ago. You’re growing so fast, you should make yourself a new one.

They all lined up and began notching arrows and firing them at the target on a tree ten meters away. Rei having hit the mark five times in a row moved between the two correcting their form.

“Sasuke, you’re dropping your elbow when you release. Be aware of your body position when you loose your arrow.” Sasuke fired another that hit his mark exactly. He grinned at Naruto.

“When did she get so good at this?”

“Well if you mean shooting, she does it every day and if you mean teaching, she has to work with me… enough said.” Sasuke chuckled and fired again making sure not to drop his elbow. After another hour they retired and Rei prepared dinner whilst Sasuke and Naruto curled up on the cot to read, their bodies entwined like lovers. An hour later the two had fallen asleep in each other’s arms, the book lay completely forgotten on the blonde’s stomach. Rei ran her hand through his hair gently to wake him up.

“Naruto, Sasuke, dinner is ready.” Tired blue eyes opened and looked up at her in complete contentment. She wished he would always look like that, instead of the mask he usually wore to hide his displeasure with his life. As hard as she tried she could never give him what he really wanted; a social circle; a title to his name; someone to fall in love with. It was torture to see him recede into himself. She smiled warmly and moved away to the table that was loaded with food. The teens stretched and joined her admiring yet another lavish mean that the young woman had prepared.

“Mmm, pheasant! Shouldn’t you have sold these?” Naruto asked not bothering to wait for an answer before cutting into the roasted bird on his plate.

“You would not believe it. I caught nine game birds in four hours today! Kami was actually distorting the poor creature’s minds to make them walk right in front of me. I sold the rest at the market today and made seven pieces of silver for my lack of trouble!”

“Wow! Seven pieces! That’s amazing! A couple more days like this and we’ll be set for the winter.” Sasuke pretended to be very interested in his meal. He often spent more than that in a day, and on what? Certainly nothing he needed. He looked up to meet Rei’s eyes and was reminded of what she had told him this morning. He returned the warm smile she was giving him.

“Congratulations. This must be a good summer for game.”

“Thank you. Yes it does seem to be a very good summer for game. I’ll have to start drying meat soon so it will keep for the winter.” The meal was heartily enjoyed and they laughed about whatever topic came up. After dinner Naruto went out to feed the horses as Sasuke helped Rei clean up.

“So were my father’s knights in town today?” She looked up startled at the revelation of identity.

“No, but I think they’ll be back. You should probably keep avoiding the village.”

“Hn”

“How long do you think it will be before they find you?” Sasuke sighed.

“I don’t know. But my father’s guards and knights are very well trained. It won’t be long.”

“Do you know one with silver hair and a stare that seem to penetrate your very thoughts?” Sasuke chuckled.

“That would be Kakashi, my trainer and an elite jounin. He always finds me. He’s the best tracker and fighter in my father’s arsenal, even at his age. It must have thrown him for a loop when you rescued me from down by the lake. I don’t think they know where I’ve gone. Probably tried to follow the bandits’ trail thinking I was kidnapped.”

“Hmm, that could be trouble eventually, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. You said he always finds me. How often does our bratty lord run away?” He glared at her teasing grin.

“Hn”

Naruto bounced back into the room, his grin making the raven teen smile in spite of himself. Rei grabbed her book deciding she should give the two some more time alone.

“I’m going out to the paddock to read while there’s still a little sun left. Oh, and I pick you two a treat while I was hunting today.” She gestured to the bowl she had placed on the table and exited. The blonde squeaked in delight as he saw what the bowl was filled with…

“Oh wow, wild strawberries!” Sasuke looked at the minuscule berries in the bowl.

“There tiny.” He replied scowling.

“I know. They take forever to pick and they’re soooo sweet.” The blonde popped a few past his pink lips and moaned.

“Sasuke, can you stay forever. I can’t remember the last time I felt so spoiled.” Sasuke move closer.

“Is that the only reason you want me to stay forever?” He hastily pulled his mouth to Naruto’s soft lips, tasting the sweet strawberries. The two moaned and kissed passionately for several minutes before returning their attention to the bowl of sweetness on the table. Naruto had keenly pointed out that if there were any left when his sister returned she would think something was very, very wrong. They savored the sweet red treat, occasionally feed each other. Sasuke scooped up the last couple of berries out of the bowl with his fingers. Naruto growled and grabbed Sasuke’s wrist making him squish the berries all over his fingertips. They struggled for a minute before Naruto raised his other hand to the raven teen’s wrist and pulled the fingers to his mouth to suck the remainders of the berries off. He smiled in triumph and let his tongue dart out to catch a droplet of juice from Sasuke’s index finger causing the pale face to contort in pleasure. Naruto brought the hand back to his mouth and sucked gently on the index finger, massaging it with his tongue. Sasuke released a very audible moan encouraging the blonde to continue his ministrations.

Naruto wanted to have this afternoon again. He wanted to feel and taste Sasuke, only more he wanted to taste everywhere. Tugging at the hem of the white shirt, the blonde quickly pulled it over the elegant raven hair to reveal the toned, pale chest. Naruto moaned at the sight and moved his head it to let his mouth and tongue explore every inch of the torso, paying special attention to any place that made Sasuke gasp or moan. Soon the faded green shirt was torn from his own tanned chest and the dark haired teen celebrated by running his nails along the tan back making pink, full lips hiss in pain and pleasure. The two grappled at each other, collapsing to the floor. Sasuke pulled Naruto on top of him and wailed in ecstasy as the blonde ferociously ground his pelvis downward.

Naruto shifted, straddling Sasuke’s hips and closing his eyes in elation at the friction between their two members. He flopped forward placing a hand on each side of his lover’s head and stared deep into the black pits of intensity. Resting his weight on his elbows he cupped the pale face in his hands tenderly. Sasuke gasped at the contrast between the rough aggressive crushing of their lower bodies to the gentle tenderness of the blonde’s hands and lips that had attached themselves to his face. He laced his hands into the fair, spiky hair, inhaling the exotic aroma of cinnamon, dirt and sweat. Praying he would never forget that smell he sat up and got to his feet, the blonde still wrapped around his waist. He set Naruto on the table so that his knees were hanging off. Fingers trembling slightly he removed the rest of the other’s clothing inhaling sharply at having all of the tanned body exposed before him. Running his tongue up the inside of the blonde’s thigh Sasuke proceeded to lick and kiss the tender skin around Naruto’s bobbing erection making the teen pant when his silky black hair would touch it during his exploration of the bronzed body. Naruto arched his back begging for release. Sasuke brought his mouth to centimeters away from Naruto’s aching cock, receiving a shudder of pleasure from him when he exhaled slowly on it. Sasuke extended his tongue and flicked the drooling member experimentally. He moaned as he tasted the salty precum and liked again more confidently making the owner’s blue eyes close in bliss letting his head fall against the table with a thump. Sasuke took the boy in his mouth and began stroking the head of the member with his tongue, slurping and moaning. Naruto arched his back and gripped the edge of the table. He had never felt anything like this before. The sensations were overwhelming but it was more than that. It wouldn’t have been so pleasurable if anyone else had been touching him. His mind was foggy from the hormones that were coursing through his body but he could tell that the lithe, pale teen was special. Special in the way he moved; special in the way he felt; special to him in everyway possible. Maybe what made him the most desirable was the fact that Sasuke wanted him; wasn’t trying to change him; wasn’t looking down on him. He let his mind cloud over, allowing the hormones spreading throughout his body take control. Feeling a tight coiling deep in his pelvis he bit his lip hard, trying to stifle his moans.

Sasuke worked feverishly, bobbing up and down on Naruto’s cock in elation. He had never felt this free in his entire life. He had no obligations, no duties or expectations. Only what he desired; and he had never desired anything like he desired the blue eyed teen. He wanted to make the boy feel like he was the only person in the world. That no matter what the future would bring he would never forget Naruto, and hoped the blonde would never forget him either. Sasuke adjusted to having the member in his mouth and began to take more, massaging Naruto’s balls, making the blonde twist in delight. He could see the teen’s knuckles turning white on the edge of the table and hear breaths shortening. He pushed himself to speed up his pace, wanting to taste the blonde again. Suddenly Naruto arched his back and allowed a muffled cry to escape his lips. Sasuke struggled to keep up with the streams of essence that shot from the blonde, swallowing as much as possible. He crawled onto the table and kissed Naruto, whose blue eyes were half lidded in content satisfaction. He stroked the tanned face placing feather light kisses where ever his lips landed.

A startled, high pitched scream jolted the two and suddenly everything was white.

Rei walked back to the cottage, her nose still in her book regardless of the fading light. The romance novel was engrossing and she had to find out exactly how the ending played out. She opened the door silently, gliding across the room to prepare bread for tomorrow. She absent mindedly dumped flour into a bowl, turning to the last page. Smiling and holding the book to her chest as she finished, she wondered why real life didn’t have happy endings. She turned to put the bowl on the table and screamed tossing the contents into the air.

Naruto felt sick. Rei had walked in to find Sasuke laying on top of his very naked body. He had been to…caught up in what was happening to notice. He looked at Sasuke who was covered in white. It would have been funny if the situation hadn’t felt so serious. Rei had literally run from the room screaming. The two scrambled to redress themselves and headed out the door. They could see Rei’s silhouette against the now eggplant horizon.

“What do we do?”

“Relax Dobe, she’s known all along.”

“Are you sure, because that reaction didn’t seem like a knowing response.” The two approached the girl inaudibly. The both stopped on the spot when they could see her shoulders shaking.

“Oh Kami she’s crying! She’s going to disown me! What am I going to do? She’s the only family I have!”

“She’s not cryin…” Sasuke stopped in mid sentence when he saw Rei move in a way that was unmistakably wiping tears from her eyes. The two began advancing slowly. Finally when they were only a meter away Naruto managed to get his voice unstuck from his chest.

“Rei?” She turned to them slowly. Small strips of flesh ran along her cheeks like veins where tears had disrupted the flour. Her face was unreadable and they stared for what seemed like hours. Finally unable to hold it anymore Rei collapsed on her stomach and laughed like the blonde had never heard her laugh before. She rolled onto her back and clutched her sides, tears streaming down her face anew.

“Aha, ha ha ah… did ha ha ha… did you see my face? I bet it was priceless! Oh Kami that was funny and awkward. Aha ha ha!” The two just stared at her in shock as she chortled and gasped for breath.

“So… you’re okay with this?”

“Oh Kit! Don’t you think I noticed the way you two have been looking at each other pretty much since Sasuke woke up? Aha ha, oh god, I can’t breathe!” She finally calmed down enough to reach her arms up, inviting the boys to help her to her feet. She kissed Naruto on the temple and tossled Sasuke’s hair, sending a cloud of white powder into the air, making her chuckle.

“Come on you two, help me clean up the mess I made and I won’t yell at you for defiling my table.”
