Chapter 07

He couldn’t wait to see a dandelion. So when he did he couldn’t resist running over and attempting to pick it. Ah the allusions of that act!

Now Sasuke had never liked dandelions. As a child he was told that they’re weeds, he liked them when they were dead and he could blow off all the seeds so they scattered in the wind. But he always hated it when the wind blew back and his clothes got covered in white stuff.

Yes, Sasuke had definitely always hated and despised above most other things, dandelions. But this wasn’t really a dandelion; he just had hair that kind of looked like that particular flower. Although there was decided nothing flowery about the guy.

“Naruto!”

“Sasuke! You goddamn bastard coming out of nowhere – what the hell!”

Wow he looked so repulsed to see him. Sasuke was seriously hurt.

“Aw, you’re not happy to see me?” Sasuke mock pouted, “I’m so offended; I thought we were close.”

“I don’t even want to know if you’re insinuating or not,” Naruto shook his head, “Uh, now’s not the best time for whatever. I have some things I need to get done today.” Namely getting rid of Sasuke.

“I thought you’re off from work?”

“I am, I have… errands.” Naruto lied offhand – it wasn’t entirely untrue. He hadn’t done his laundry in a week. If he didn’t clean up soon the clothes would turn into nothing but a huge pile of manure stinking up his bedroom.

"So do them later."

"What?" Naruto glared outright, "No, I can't today. I said I have things to do."

Naruto brushed him off and tried to continue down the sidewalk. He was stopped by a pale hand gripping him around the wrist with surprising strength, keeping him near the raven-haired youth.

"Sasuke-!" Naruto was about to come up with another shitty excuse; like he was on the way to a friend's funeral or something - even if he wasn't dressed in black.

"Come on, I wanna go out with you." Sasuke cocked his head to the side, a semi-smirk-sneer on his face. A condescending look to match the order - not request - he had issued to the blond.

Naruto grimaced, he was in the mood for another date with Sasuke like he was in the mood for hot chili peppers to be shoved down his throat before he was thrown in a cage from an airplane 4,000 feet in the air. Actually that would be a Sunday afternoon picnic compared to another date with Sasuke as far as Naruto was concerned. Although any normal moron might pick the hot onyx eyed adonis over a suicide attempt.

Actually... Naruto could dump him after this; and it was already mid afternoon; the date couldn't last that long. So it would be a short date, and afterwards Naruto could finally end it. Actually this was a golden opportunity - what was he doing playing hard to get for?!

"Hm." Naruto smirked back, "Very well, your royal-fucking-majesty."

Sasuke frowned, dark eyes narrowing, "What crawled up your ass and puked up antagonism?"

"Oh you know, hard day." Naruto waved it off; suddenly feeling like a jackass. After all, Sasuke hadn't pulled anything queer yet. He honestly had no valid reason to start off being so unnaturally cruel - except of course for the previous two dates and the fact that this was a guy that probably deserved whatever he got for past encounters anyway, right? "I ran into Neji earlier, kinda annoyed me."

Oh so Neji probabyl spouted all the evils of Sasuke's not-so-private-private-life. Good thing Naruto was so head over heels for him he didn't buy it. Though he was being seriously cold. "Sure that's all it was?"

"Yeah," Naruto forced a brilliantly natural smile, "I'm good, really."

"If you wanna talk about it, we can." Sasuke offered. Perhaps it was possible that Neji had managed to plant the seeds of doubt in the blond's mind. How dare he go corrupting Sasuke's new boytoy against him!

Yes, Neji had managed to aggitate Naruto's own latent feelings of discontent. The kind of feeling when you're with a person and you kind of have to run away; so you do and -thankfully- nothing ever happens between you two. Then a month later you barely recognize each other because you made sure to run off and avoid contact with the person and thus the scary icky strange and foreign feeling of being near them.

Actualy the first time he'd felt that was when he met her - she sought him out first, after that happened he was long gone to reason.

"I said I'm good." Naruto insisted, freeing his wrist. The uncomfy warmth of Sasuke's fingers had leaked a little too long into his skin. At least this would be the last date he would ever have to suffer with the other.

"Okay, let's go; if you've eaten already we could go go-carting, or ice skating," Sasuke suggested, "You like ice skating?"

"No I don't like ice-"

"Skating it is."

"Hey! Why ask for my opinion if you're going to do it anyway?"

"That's because you're lying."

"I am not! I don't like ice-skating, for real! It's girlie!"

"Yeah right; listen to yourself. You can't lie well at all."

"Yes I can!" Most of the time! It had worked on Sasuke so far... unless - no it was definitely a lie. Which was why it was ending after this.

"Then there's another reason you don't want to go skating with me?"

Yes, it would corrupt the memory of her.

"No; skating is fine." Naruto relented. Ice skating wasn't something he despised; but the last time he went ice skating... it was so long ago, a school trip from elementary actually.

"Hey, come on," Sasuke called, pulling on Naruto's arm to change their course and run across the street before the signal changed.

"Hey, wait, what?"

"There's some people I want you to meet." Sasuke couldn't believe he'd just remembered the do this. He probably should have brought Naruto by earlier, but it never crossed his mind till he saw the diner across the street.

He glanced back to make sure the blond was following and when he caught up motioned to the group sitting at the booth near the far window.

"Friends of yours?" Naruto asked arching an eyebrow. "You have friends with that attitude?"

"Just because you haven't met them, doesn't mean they don't exist." Sasuke quipped. "And they're probably not so much friends; they're actually a bunch of jerks but I hang out with them anyway."

"Now that makes more sense." Naruto muttered.

"Hey, guy's, Naruto. Naruto, the guys." Sasuke introduced forcing his way onto the side of the booth with Shikamaru and Shino; smashing the sunglass-wearing dude into the window without remorse. "That's Hinata, Temari, and these are Shikamaru and Shino."

"Why, hello ladies," Naruto slid in next to Hinata grinning at the gaping girl. Shikamaru looked like a goldfish that was just yanked up out of it's bowl and a cat was dangling him in front of it.

Temari glared. Shino looked terribly uncomfortable being smushed against the window - that and Ed was at a particularly ticklish position along the back of his neck.

"So you're Hinata, right?" Naruto asked giving the dark-haired girl a wolfish grin. Hinata gaped a moment more before awkwardly nodding and looking away. That's right; with Sasuke here... they and Naruto have never met...

Yes this was awkward. Temari wished dearly she'd had the good sense to bring her knives with her. She had just finished cleaning them today and she should have brought them so she could gouge out Naruto's perverted not-keeping-his-eyes-or hands for that matter-to-himself.

Sasuke looked annoyed too; and what was worse he didn't care to flirt with Hinata. Truthfully Naruto had to have a deathwish to try and cross Temari - and ignorance is no excuse in the eyes of the law-er, I mean-Temari. Yes Naruto's faithfulness was truly amazing.

Shikamaru eventually managed to even out his breathing to a state where the goldfish was too high to care if he was about to be eaten by a cat. Thus he sat with a dumb look on his face unwilling, and in fact unable, to participate in the psychodelic event.

Shino managed to get Ed back onto his shoulder, and turned his head to regard Naruto and Sasuke - a very new image. Sasuke generally didn't date people whose colors were opposed with his own.

"So you do blonds now?" Shino asked ever so tactfully.

"Huh?" Sasuke asked turning his glower to Shino having been distracted from scowling at the flirting blond.

"Uh!" Shino flinched at the harsh stare, "Well, uh, it's just, uh, I remember you wouldn't go out with Ino back when she was still straight, supposedly because she was a blond... so uh, uh...!!"

Sasuke's expression actually darkened. Out of the corner of his eye - Naruto was tickling Hinata now?!! "Yeah..." why was he going out with the blond anyway? What had sparked his interest? Well first there was the sign and then, oh yeah; "But have you seen his ass?"

That sounded like a threat somehow with that horrible glower. Shino craned his head to the side to better hide behind the human meatshield known as Shikamaru who was temporarily comatose.

"I can't say I want to," Shino said shakily, hoping not to offend the dark-haired boy any further than he already had, "I'm perfectly fine seeing Senna' ass, thanks."

"So, you single?"

"Uh, well, actually, I am-"

"Come on, let me take you to coffee sometime," Naruto persisted, "your boyfriend doesn't have to know right?"

"Uh..."

That was IT!!

Suddenly at the same instant a pair of arms encircled both Naruto and Hinata. Two arms wrapped around Hinata's shoulders. Forcefully yanking the girl backward into two large fleshy mounds. Ripping her harshly away from the second blond.

An arm latched around Naruto's shoulders. It yanked him back the other direction away from Hinata. A second hand landed, a little too close to his ass for comfort. A finger ducked into his pants a short distance to seize the fabric. Effectively the grip yanked Naruto out of the booth. His body pulled back harshly against a firm chest.

Sasuke was effectively holding Naruto nearly midair, and Naruto awkwardly kept his feet under him - all the while much to aware of that tiny finger touching the inside of his pants and grazing the top of his boxers. Shit.

Temari and Sasuke exchanged glares warning the other to keep their respective other away from their own.

Shikamaru was still dead, Shino was just glad to have seat space again. Sasuke turned his glare to Naruto briefly, though the other youth couldn't see his eyes he could still glare at the top of his head.

"No manner to this blond, unlike Hinata's partner." Sasuke muttered, half in apology to Temari so she wouldn't try to beat him to death later and half to chastise Naruto who actually needed to be beat to death.

"Huh? Hinata's partner?" Naruto did a double take on Temari, and suddenly paled.

"Time to go Naruto."

Naruto stood quickly; Sasuke's finger left his pants, shoot-er, uh-thank goodness. He followed the dark-haired youth out of the diner as quickly as possible. He was still in shock.

"... I never knew Hinata was... uh..." Naruto struggled with the words; somehow the word gay didn't fit Hinata. Hinata... there was no way, since Hinata was... so nice. But he couldn't say that either, since technically he'd never met Hinata before today - as far as Sasuke knew anyway.

"Yeah. Oddly enough Temari is the only partner of Hinata's that Neji has actually approved of," Sasuke shrugged, "Weird huh?"

Naruto nodded, still trying to wrap the fact around his head - it wasn't working too well, but he'd get it eventually.

"It's probably because Temari can't get Hinata prematurely pregnant." Sasuke guessed with a snigger.

"Ah?" Naruto snorted, Neji would definitely be the type to take that into consideration; "Yeah, probably."

Okay, so that threw him for a moment, but it was cool now. Hinata and Temari; so Temari was who Hinata mentioned before. Well that was fine, it wasn't his business anyway; Hinata was still Hinata.

"Damn, why are all the hot ones lesbian?"

Sasuke smirked, "Tell me about it!"

`

“Hey, you know…”

Hinata frowned, “Does it seem like Sasuke has been unusually… not unhappy lately?”

“Sasuke? Happy? No.” Shino answered truthfully. “What gave you that idea? Did aliens steal your brain?”

“No, it’s just…” Hinata sighed and turned to Temari; maybe the other girl had noticed what had seemed off about Sasuke just a moment ago.

“I don’t really care,” Temari shrugged, still verily irritated by past events; “I didn’t think anything was unusual, same old Sasuke. Naruto on the other hand must really want his balls cut off to keep flirting with you like that.”

Shikamaru groaned when the coma finally wore off. Naruto was playing his part perfectly, and that meant… “I’m going to have to shell out $500!!”

“HUH?!!” Shino said staring at the brunette, “How does that work?!!” In all his existence Shikamaru almost always refused to pay excessive amounts for things, no matter what it was!

The guy wouldn’t go to Europe because the vacation would be too troublesome – which meant, too expensive so he didn’t want to. Shikamaru was as stingy as he was lazy. What had caused this miraculous occurrence?!

“His acting wasn’t too bad, he didn’t blow anything;” Temari begrudged, “But he still shouldn’t have gotten so cuddly with Hinata; you’d think he’d learned from before!”

“Before? Guys? Guys!!” Shino said vying for attention, “What’s going on? You know Naruto? What’s going on?!”

“You think Sasuke might actually ‘like’ Naruto?” Hinata pondered.

“Yeah, Sasuke ‘likes’ all his toys until he gets bored of them.” Temari drawled.

“No, I mean; you think he actually likes him? Do you think Sasuke might… actually love Naruto?” Hinata puzzled, “I mean he was joking about it before, but-?”

“Yes, ‘joking’.” Temari emphasized.

“Sasuke in love?” Shikamaru barked a short laugh; still holding his head on his hands bemoaning his soon to be lost cash. “Doubtful!”

“Yeah!” Temari agreed; thus ending the conversation.

“GUYS!! Don’t ignore me!” Shino was again completely lost.

“Hey! What’s going on? Tell me!”

`

“I feel so sorry for her.”

“I don’t. It’s her fault for getting on the ice without knowing anything about skating.”

“You really are a jerky bastard, huh?”

“Just figured that out? I thought we had already clarified this?”

“Yeah but you’re really mean, she’s cute too.” Naruto defended glancing across the ice rink past all the moving people to the brunette girl at the other side.

The girl was holding onto the rail to keep herself from falling; focusing her eyes straight ahead to keep moving. But when she left the side she couldn’t control her direction or speed. She had already fallen down a lot when she tried to leave the side.

“Cute?” Sasuke asked looking back as well, and shrugged. “Eh, not my type I guess.”

“Type? That’s stupid, there are no ‘types’, that’s a girl’s excuse to get rid of a guy who tails her.” Naruto stated.

“Nope, they’ve got types. Girls apparently have decided to become very picky.”

“So you have a type?”

“Yeah, why not?”

“Fine,” Naruto shook his head, “and apparently cute brunette girls with slim hips and cute faces aren’t your ‘type’?”

“No, but silly girls who don’t know when to avoid injury aren’t.” Sasuke insisted. “If I didn’t know how to skate, I’d learn, or else stay away from harm’s way. It’s just stupid to go looking for an ego beating!”

“Right so ‘that’s not your type.” Naruto rolled his eyes. Shifted his heels outward to spin 180 degrees, and skate backwards to look at Sasuke; a wry grin on his face as he considered the dark eyed youth. “So what is your ‘type’?”

“Good personality, not ugly.” Sasuke glanced to the side in thought; “Fun, of interest, can hold a conversation, nice hair, good teeth…”

“Good teeth? Sure you’re not thinking of horses here?” Naruto scoffed.

“Yes because generally I date outside my species.” Sasuke rolled his eyes, “Oh yeah, how much do you weigh?”

“155 lbs. All muscle.” Naruto flexed his muscles, which were the size of watermelons that just so happened to be non-existent.

Sasuke frowned as Naruto righted himself to skate forward on the ice. “You weigh more than I do.”

“Do I?” Naruto mused with disinterest; “It’s cause you’re so scrawny.”

“No, not ‘scrawny’. ‘Lithe’.”

“Scrawny, lithe, same thing.”

“Not exactly. Consult a dictionary.”

“Scrawny = lithe.” Naruto shrugged, “But if you want to get so very technical scrawny indicates fasting where lithe indicates you work out.”

“I work out, can’t you tell with these defined muscles?”

“You have muscle? I couldn’t tell.”

“Wanna see my abs, they’re huge.”

“Dude! Don’t lift up your shirt – there’s ladies present!”

“Yeah, on the other side of the rink. Or did you mean you?” Sasuke glided past, he was only teasing about taking his shirt off anyway. “So what’s your type of girl?”

“Well, ‘if’ I had a type…” Naruto considered, “Sweet. Nice, gorgeous smile, funny; confident in herself. Kind without a reason; comfortable in who she is. Pale, with eyes that let you know everything she’s thinking. Speaks her mind.”

In the end he shrugged. He could have gone on, there were so many things about her that he had adored; but that was then. She might have changed; she could still be the same as he remembered. Had she lost her baby fat? Did she still wear ribbons in her hair? Naruto grinned despite himself; pulling himself from his thoughts to regard his partner.

“Hm. You do have good teeth.” Sasuke noted. Naruto quirked an eyebrow as Sasuke drifted closer, “Well, I always speak my mind.”

Sasuke smiled, “I’m very comfortable with who I am, and you are the most interesting person I’ve ever met.”

“Nice to know I measure up so nicely.” Naruto said hoping this wasn’t what he had a horrible feeling it was.

“Very nicely.” Sasuke murmured; his eyes glazed in something heated and tangible; “Thought I’d like to measure you other ways as well.”

Naruto only smiled and looked away. It was different from the flirting from the time before. It just seemed so much more… honest.

Sasuke’s open smile, his eyes without defense and words without pretense – it cut him. It pricked inside of his like tiny icy needles and beat beneath his skin agitating his conscience. Irritating and goading until the guilt became like lead plates covering his body like an armor dragging him down until he would break.

He was already getting in too deep. ‘Hold on. Just a bit longer.’ It was so easy to say a while ago; entirely different when the dishonesty was busy boiling away his skin and mutilating his flesh and mind in the ‘now’.

But what could he do besides hold on to the lies just a bit longer. Soon it would all be over – all of it. It would disappear and be gone forever. Another place, another time, perhaps they would have been friends; and this mess would have been obsolete.

“What?” Naruto asked, completely missing what Sasuke had been saying as they had gotten off the rink and returned the skates to head back. This was supposed to be where it was over but apparently… er…

“I want to go to your place.”

“No way in hell!”

“Why? You said you’d cook for me, right? Soba or something, right?” Sasuke pressed, smirking; bringing up the ‘promise’ that Naruto had made while high on ramen.

“Yeah well, you said it was only technically cooking anyway; so it’s not like a promise or anything.” Naruto tried to reason the problem away as they headed for the door.

“I’d be fine with it; you didn’t already have dinner right?”

“Yeah but I’m not that hungry either.” Naruto tried to persuade the dark-haired boy off of the idea.

“Great, me neither; let’s go anyway!”

“Why my place?”

“Why not your place?”

“Uh, that is; it’s not in too great a shape right now.”

“So?”

“It’s really really dirty. You can’t even walk in the front door. You’d have to climb in the window.”

“So? I’ll spend the night and help you clean with weekend or something?”

“You clean?”

“Yeah, I keep my place really neat and tidy.”

“Really?”

“Don’t look so shocked. You look like the person who keeps a mess anyway. It doesn’t bother me.”

“No way.”

“Oh come on!”

“No!” Naruto said firmly; “Figures your place would be clean though; you’re anal like that.”

“You have no idea.” Sasuke purred; leaning over to his ear. Naruto flinched away startled; and glared as Sasuke just laughed, mocking him in all possible ways.

“No fair!” Naruto defended weakly, “You’re not allowed to do that!”

Sasuke just smirked, as if to further damage the blond’s pride. It was absolutely infuriating.

“You-! You’re mean!” Naruto finally huffed and looked away; determined to have ended this conversation.

Sasuke put an arm around his shoulders, smirk still in place. “Don’t be like that! I didn’t mean it!” accompanied by a flick of a warm tongue against the corner of his mouth. Incited a flare of warmth a shock along his nerves. “Or maybe I did.”

“WAH!!” Naruto jerked away. Not only from the not-so-very-un-welcome touch, but also from the strange and not-completely-unlike entirely unwanted sensations. “Not cool! Don’t do that!”

Sasuke just laughed; that infuriating smug look on his face. Naruto could feel his face aflame, and Sasuke’s hand on his wrist tugged him forward anyway. Somehow his legs missed the memo that they shouldn’t follow Sasuke without question when he looks sexy and happy and fuckable. “Come on, this is me.”

Huh? Oh, this was where Sasuke lived? He was leading them towards a complex after all. This wasn’t too far from Naruto’s place and everywhere else actually. Nice how everything was central here.

Dark eyes caught him again.

Warm lips covered his own. He didn’t push him away. He probably should have cried out, pushed him away, laughed it off, somehow. But he didn’t; it was scary how his own mouth moved unconsciously against Sasuke’s. Already he wanted-was ‘used to’-this.

A hot tongue touched his lip and already he had opened to him. Wet muscles twined against each other; tasting and drinking each other in. His arms had around wound around the other.

Sasuke’s mouth moving along his jawline, nuzzling the agitated skin; as Naruto fought to breathe. Sasuke’s body against his, that warmth wrapped around him seeped into him filling him up.

Naruto’s body shuddered against him. It was scary how much his body wanted it. His own arms had wound themselves around Sasuke’s back without permission. But this was wrong wasn’t it?

Sasuke’s hand slid under his shirt. Naruto shivered, arching to the touch. Conciously Naruto ordered his hand to move to still Sasuke’s.

“Don’t-”

It was the only word he got in. Sasuke’s lips sealed his again, an irascible mouth devouring him again. It blurred his mind, erasing coherent thought. The two stumbled through the open door; Sasuke’s apartment, the door kicked shut behind them.

“Don wanna,”

It was getting too far.

Sasuke’s voice gusted over him briefly before touching again to Naruto’s mouth. His hand had returned against Naruto’s chest. The blond’s shirt hiked up as Sasuke’s hand moved over the taut skin, firm muscle and sinew beneath.

He has to stop it. But... this is a very bad situation. He also doesn’t want to stop.

His hand brushed roughly over Naruto’s nipple. Incited a hiss. Soothed with a tongue; draw a moan and shiver. Backed to a wall; hips jerked against his own. Naruto cried out as Sasuke’s hips moved abruptly against his own. The immutable burn of lust provoked.

“I love you.”

Those were his words, weren’t they? Unbidden their hips rocked together, moving at a feverish pace that all the same seemed far too slow. Seen through a viscous film that makes all movement sluggish. Sasuke’s mouth pressed harder to his chest, tongue pressing and curling against the sensitive nub.

Love? Naruto liked Sasuke, but he didn’t… ‘love’ him. Naruto didn’t even… like guys.

Naruto cried out, and writhed. Arched and hissed; moving his hips against the other. His skin shuddered, his breath short and shallow. His flesh covered in a thin sheen of sweat, something like burning up.

Sasuke tore them from the wall; they were moving again. Naruto couldn’t care, his form too absorbed in the sensation between his legs. Sasuke pulled up, taking Naruto’s shirt over his head before letting him fall back.

Something soft broke Naruto’s fall. A bed? The blond thought blearily before Sasuke covered him again; hips moving against each other; mouth searing his, hands leaving trails of flames all across his body. His loins throbbed, and he felt Sasuke’s own shaft pulsing through the cloth barriers.

Sasuke withdrew briefly to remove his own shirt. Naruto stole that moment of lucid thought, watching the pale flesh of Sasuke move in fluid movement. It was getting too far; far too far. Dark eyes devouring his form as much as Naruto’s eyes took Sasuke in; slim frame, pale alabaster skin and dusky nipples. Would it cause him as much coherence as it did Naruto; if he touched him there?

He had to stop this. He can’t…

Naruto moved up to meet Sasuke. His hand latching into dark hair as his mouth sealed Sasuke’s; plunging within to taste and touch him all over on the inside. Sasuke’s hips wriggled excitedly against him as Naruto seized control; Sasuke didn’t fight him for it.

Can’t allow it.

The blond steered them over, dragging Sasuke beneath him this time; grinding his hips downward to meet Sasuke’s enthusiastic gyrations. It drew a yelp from the paler youth as a tanned palm pressed against a hardened nub. Naruto’s tongue pressed against the pulsing vein at Sasuke’s neck, while his hands massaged over either of the dark-eyed youth’s breast.

Sauske panted and arched against the touch. Turning to the side to allow the blond easier access. Gasped out as Naruto’s hips rolled forcefully against his own. They needed their pants off – now!

Sasuke arched his body up against the other. This was Naruto; otherwise he probably would have minded giving up control. It was even strange; he really should have fought the blond as far as who actually controlled the pace and the actions. But this was Naruto, so it was alright.

Naruto moved to touch his tongue to the previously abused area. Sasuke moaned as the blond slowly took the iniative to take the nub into his mouth and lave it with saliva searing him. Normally he didn’t give his ‘partner’s this level of responsibility. He normally never trusted them this far; but like this…

Sasuke’s hands moved to massage through short blond locks, pressing lightly. At that Naruto unexpectedly bit into the sensitive skin. Sasuke cried out jerking away from the touch. It stung; but it wasn’t bleeding. Naruto’s hot tongue caressing away the hurt.

Glancing down Naruto’s cheeks seemed darker; even in the dim light from outside the blond looked cute; so embarrassed he hadn’t paid enough attention to his task. Sasuke felt himself smile; he relaxed against into the unsure touches that still managed to take him over.

Naruto moved away from his chest, trailing the tongue lower. Sasuke hissed as the cool air surrounded the previously heated nub. Naruto’s hips ground against his and one of his hands slipped lower to cup around it. Sasuke’s body jerked and moaned. A heady feeling; it felt natural to give up his power to the blond.

He trusts Naruto.

Then the body above him froze. All points of contact lost. Dark eyes opened and he turned to look at his partner; his body twitched irritated at the loss of contact. They had barely even started, so why?
“What’s wrong?”

Naruto’s body stayed perfectly still, propped over Sasuke, unmoving; but his voice shook with some Sasuke could not decipher. “I… can’t. It’s…” Naruto’s arms started to shake, “not now.”

Then with a light gust of cool air Naruto’s body was gone from above him. There was the soft sound of footsteps hurrying away. The door opened. Swung shut.

Then silence.

Sasuke lay still; and blinked once at the ceiling. Completely quiet; and just a moment ago, someone else had been there. Did Naruto seriously just run off before they could even get completely naked?

Sasuke’s face curled into a scowl; his skin still felt hot; and the burn at his loins had not lessened. It was all Naruto’s fault his body was like this now anyway.

If he didn’t want to; he shouldn’t have come along at all! Everything had been going fine! Although Sasuke probably could have stopped before when Naruto was going to protest; but then everything that the blond’s body was saying was that he wanted it too! So what the fuck?!

Sasuke turned on his side and glared heatedly at the wall as if it somehow were the sole cause of this stupid predicament. Actually it was possible that it was just the blond’s body like that. Heck, Sasuke’s first few times he hadn’t even thought about it, it just sort of happened and afterwards if he regretted it, it was only then that he could consider it.

There was no way that Naruto was a virgin; but this was his first time with a guy. Sasuke frowned sourly, perhaps Naruto had started thinking about it sometime, and that’s why he ran off. Sasuke certainly hadn’t done anything to scare him! Naruto was in control then, and it had been going so well too…

“Damnit!”

Sasuke cursed loudly in the empty and too-quiet apartment. And it was great that his body just hadn’t yet registered that Naruto had run off. Naruto hadn’t said that he was regretting it though he had said, ‘not now’, so he wanted to – obviously! He just wanted to wait.

Okay, so Sasuke would let him think it through some more and then they could do this without stupid complications. Stupid blond; and he still wanted him too.

Sasuke sighed in irritation before kicking his pants and boxers off. It wasn’t like his erection was going to go away on it’s own for a long while. Sasuke’s hand cupped around the flesh; like Naruto’s hand had done through his pants, just before he’d left.

He hissed, turning back on his back; dark eyes closed; imagining gold and blue eyes above him. A bright grin accompanied by a light squeeze. He groaned.

Then that hand started to move, sliding easily up and down his length. Pressing lightly at the base, drawing out a moan. Blue eyes smiled in the darkness with the hurried motions; alternately tightening and releasing along his shaft.

The pulsing member leaking, his thumb wound back up to the tip to run small circles. Panting a cry escaped at the rough act; his hips arching towards the raw touch.

Naruto’s mouth on his neck, had felt… like that; a physical high that washed over and consumed. His mouth, his touch; pressing demanding branding into him. He wanted to mark him as well; push him down again and draw out those whispering sounds of pleasure.

Rough and wild in abandon; if he touched him with asperity as well; would that husky voice rise and swell with pleasure? To see that tanned body writhing and arching against him; to see blue eyes glazed in lust, his form shivering with desire.

To own the taste of sweet and scent of sunlight and grass. Burning bright like the sun; Naruto. Sasuke shuddered and ruptured; spilling essence over his hands.

It wasn’t fair, Sasuke acknowledged that much. It wasn’t as if he asked for this infatuation; but he got it anyway. It started like everything else, and then infected him like a spreading disease without an antidote. But he wanted it anyway.

He wanted Naruto still.
