Giving Him Their Loving

Part 1: Best-Selling Blue-Eyed Blondie

3,705 words

It has been a busy Saturday for one blue-eyed blonde. He's currently seated at the back sit of a black Mercedes Benz, the driver being his manager, said blonde have been sighing through the whole of their ride.

"Naruto?" the black-haired man, with a visible scar across his nose, at the driver's seat inquired.

"Yeah?" the blonde replied after another sigh.

"Something wrong? You've been sighing a lot back there." the driver asked concerned.

"Well, nothin' really, just that we've been in a lot of major bookstores since early mornin'. I should be somewhere with someone at this hour, feel bad had to cancel my prior appointment. What time are we gonna finish?" the back sit passenger reasoned out.

"I see. So it's because you canceled a date hm? With who?" the man at front figured, and asked teasingly.

"Iruka!" the blondie shrieked.

"What?" Iruka asked, as to seem he has no clue why the blonde shrieked.

"What, 'what?'?" the blonde asked back.

"Jeez Naruto, I was just wondering who you're gonna bed this time. I'm having trouble with your long list of lov-"

"Ah! No, don't say it. And I'm not gonna bed anyone, and what do you mean list?" Naruto cut him off, he seemed pissed at Iruka, he huffed and crossed his arms across his chest.

Iruka chuckled, he loves seeing Naruto's cute pissed face. "Well, if you don't know what list I'm talking about then I don't know either, it's your list not mine." he said to Naruto, and then stepped on the breaks, "Well, we're here. You should be glad, this is the last, for this day." he informed Naruto, and got out of the car and went to open Naruto's door, offering a hand. "Shall we, hime?" he said teasingly.

"Yeah yeah, thanks." Naruto said displeased and rolled his eyes as he took Iruka's offered hand.

A large crowd greeted Naruto and his manger as they entered the usually spacious bookstore, but is now cramped due to the awaiting mass of people. Naruto made his way behind the table prepared for him. There were copies of his latest book entitled Love Leverage on the table, and pens for him to use.

He shifted his chair for a more comfortable position and then looked at the crowd in front, they've lined-up neatly, each holding a book or two. After a few moments, Naruto started his book-signing. He generously signed a book after another, his smile never leaving his face. As he signed the books, he received nothing but good comments from his readers, and this gives him a great feeling. This feeling makes him love being an author.

The crowd started to thin as the clock continues to tick. Naruto checked on his watch and saw it had already been an hour since he started, and he looked at the line and was relieved to see no more than twenty people in line. Just a little more, he said to him self.

As moments went on, he cannot stop but smile in happiness as he was almost done; he was grinning ear to ear, but only inwardly. The thought of him finishing and spending time with his lover made him excited and so he's lost his focus and has only been looking at the book he's signing.

Naruto hadn't noticed that this was his last book to sign. As he started to write on the fly leaf of the book he's holding, he stopped halfway. The boy standing in front of him seemed familiar, too familiar. And so Naruto looked up, only to be met with a warm smile, and the affectionate pair of green eyes that's looking straight at him. Shock induced, he threw himself at the boy and clung his arms to the other boy's neck.

"Gaara." Naruto called softly at the red-hair's ear.

"Na-ru-to." Gaara said emphasizing each syllable.

"Why- How did you know I was here?" Naruto pulled away, and asked.

"Baby, how I knew that you're here shouldn't be surprising. Didn't you know your 'bookstore tour' was in the news?" Gaara said, as his arms snaked around Naruto's waist, his hands rested on Naru's back and pulled his blonde closer. "Shouldn't you be asking, why I'm here?" he whispered to his blonde's ear, his breath tickling Naru's neck, earning a giggle from the smaller blonde.

"Ehem." Iruka intervened. "As much as I don't want to interrupt, but I must ask you two love birds to continue that somewhere, private."

"Oh-" came from the blonde and pushed his red-haired lover away.

"Good. You can go now Naruto, I'll pick you up at 10 tomorrow. Have a goodnight, you too Gaara." Iruka stated and left waving a hand.

"So you still have to go somewhere tomorrow huh. Well, in that case let's go to my place now, I'll bring you home before 10 tomorrow." Gaara suggested, pulling the blonde closer and looking into his blue depths. "What do you say, baby?" he asked his blonde.

Naruto just stared into his lovers eyes, savoring the moment. "Can I ever say no to you?" he said and pulled away and started to the exit of the bookstore, his lover followed closely behind.

The two got to Gaara's car and started to Gaara's place.

Twenty minutes later, the two got to Gaara's place. The whole trip was quiet, the two only settled on exchanging shy glances and ghostly touches, acting like kids in their first relationships yet they have been lovers for almost a year now.

Gaara searched for the key card to his condo unit, he found it and swapped it to the door, a beep was heard and the door clicked open. Gaara took Naruto's hand and led them both to his room.

Upon entering Gaara's room, Naruto ran to the king size bed and plopped down onto it with a sigh. Naruto rolled around the excessively comfortable bed and finally stopped to lie on his back and stare at the ceiling.

"You tired, baby?" Gaara inquired, taking his coat and dress shirt off.

"No," he replied and sat-up on the bed. "Not really. I'll take the shower first."

"Oh okay," Gaara said as he, topless slash half naked, walked to Naru on his bed and sat beside him. "But I was thinking of taking a shower together, hm?" he added as he leaned closer to Naru.

Naruto shoved a hand to Gaara's face, making his red-haired lover lie on the bed. "Not a chance." he said and got up and descended to the other door of the spacious room.

Gaara excitedly got out of the bathroom, completely naked, after a refreshing shower; of course he dried himself a bit in the bathroom and left his bath towel as he went to his bedroom, noiseless. He tiptoed his way to his bed, being careful as to not make the slightest noise. He was about to jump on the bed to surprise his little blonde, but, to his dismay, found the bed empty.

Gaara, though a little bit disappointed and upset, stormed out of the bedroom, not minding to put anything on. In a few moments, he was in his living room, and there he found his blonde comfortably sitting on a couch, munching on some chips while watching a comedy show, he could hear his blonde's fits of laughter. This got him mad, being neglected by his blue-eyed sexy blonde. So he got in front of his blonde, blocking the plasma television in doing so.

"Eep!" Naruto squealed. "Hentai, Gaara hentai!" he shouted, closed his eyes shut, and covered his face with the plush pillow that was beside him. His squealing continued.

"Whoa, whoa, shh, shhh…" Gaara tried to hush his lover, seeing as it was futile like that, he grabbed the plush pillow separating them from each other and covered Naruto's mouth with a hand, silencing him so. He let out a sigh of relief.

The room was quiet, save the noise from the t.v. and Naruto's panting, his mouth though was still covered by Gaara's hand. Gaara was silent, kneeling in front of Naruto, trying to calm him self, he was still mad.

"Okay, I'm going to take my hand off, okay baby?" Gaara started, Naruto looked him in the eye as if saying he's listening. "But, you are not to scream or squeal or shout, okay?" he continued, Naruto nodded and so he took his hand off.

"Naruto, I-"

A big piece of potato chip came flying to Gaara's face and cut him off. "Jerk," Naruto said. "Wha the hell came into your mind?" Naruto threw potato chips at Gaara again.

"Wait… just…" Gaara tried to reason but was always cut of by the flying potato chips directed straight at him, getting annoyed by them. "Just listen will you!" he finally burst.

Naruto stopped throwing his food, he ate the potato chip that he was about to throw at Gaara.

"Baby I was just- Wait a-" Gaara remembered he was mad. "I'm supposed to be the one being explained to, not the other way around."

Naruto realized, and was now smiling apologetically. "Ehe-he."

Gaara stared at his lover, raising an almost invincible brow. "So, what do you have to say?" he interrogated.

Naruto started, looking elsewhere but Gaara. "Heh- um- I, I got bored so-"

"I was gone for less than ten frigging minutes and you say you got bored?" Gaara interrupted, not finding Naruto's excuse excusable. He arched his brow again.

"Well," Naruto started again, then huffed. "Okay, I don't wanna do it tonight." He looked over Gaara and saw him listening and so he locked gaze with him. "So can we please not do it tonight? I'm tired and I'm exhausted. I started early and I've been surrounded by crowd all day an-"

"Okay, okay." Gaara cut him off not wanting to hear him rant again. He stood up and gave his Naru a hug, he tucked Naru's head under his chin and breathe into his blonde's sweet scent.

Naruto's hand slapped Gaara's arm, earning cusses from him.

"Aw! What was that for baby?" Gaara questioned.

"You pervert," Naruto said and glared at his lover.

"What?" Gaara questioned again.

"You say it's okay that we don't do it tonight, but your head's been poking me."

"Wha-?" Gaara said, still confused. He looked down at him, and figured what his lover's talking about. "Oh-" he said so and left to his room, leaving a pissed blonde crouched on a couch.

A few moments passed and Gaara returned to the living room with a white shirt and cream-colored silk pants on, they're more comfy than they look.

"Tada!" Gaara blurted as he set his self in front of Naruto again, this time with clothes on. "I'm not naked now aren't I?" he stated, awaiting his blonde's reaction. None came so he bent down to the still sitting Naruto, he was about to plant a kiss on his blonde's lips but the said blonde turned his face to the side and got to kiss his cheek instead.

"I'm not in the mood." his blonde grunted.

"Sorry," Gaara softly said to his blonde's ear, he placed his hands on the arm rests at each sides of Naru.

"Yeah… sorry." the blonde said and he's now face to face with his lover, their faces merely a few millimeters apart.

"It's okay baby. I understand." Gaara said locking his eyes with his lover's azure depths, and he pressed his lips lightly to his lover's. He still can't believe that such sweetness and softness exist.

It took a while for Naru to respond, but he did, he kissed back. He felt Gaara lightly suck on his bottom lip, he figured he was asking for entrance so he parted his lips a bit, and something hot and soft invaded his mouth. He lightly sucked on it, and let out a moan when it started to brush and explore what there is to explore in his mouth, Naruto's hands made their way around Gaara's neck finally stopped to fondle the red hair. Naruto pushed his lover back, a trail of saliva still connecting them to each other, he did so in need for air.

Gaara's eyes never leaving his lover's face, his lover's breathing was heavy and his glistening azure eyes were half lidded, Gaara too was pumping oxygen into his air deprived lung, and he slowly caught his breath. He then pulled his blonde up, this got his blonde a bit puzzled.

The red-haired replaced the blonde on his couch. Gaara settled himself comfortably on the couch and he patted the space between his thighs complying the blonde to sit as he pulled him with his other hand.

Naruto sat with an omp, he was surprised at his lover's sudden action. He twisted a bit to look into his lover behind him, their eyes met, Naru stared into his lover's eyes questionably.

"What? Can't we sit like this? C'mon baby, let's just watch what you're watching." Gaara said, and Naru nodded and turned to the show he was watching. Silence followed.

Naruto felt bad for rejecting his lover of having sex tonight. Naruto was totally exhausted from the day's events. Sure he missed his red-head, they haven't been around each other for two weeks, due to Gaara's modeling. The red-head was called overseas for the series of fashion events he was in and for his photo shoots for the brands he models' next issue. They've only been calling each other for those two weeks they've been apart, but they don't get to talk long since they were both busy and because of their time difference.

Two weeks. Two weeks of no sex. This is already passed Gaara's limitation, but, he can still hold himself back, for his Naru. His Naru seems to be enjoying watching the stupid show on tv, he's been silent since. It's okay, Gaara thought to him self, at least he can watch and have his lover in his arms.

"Why were you at the bookstore?" Naru suddenly asked, him not wanting the silence anymore.

"It's because," he started, leaning his chin on Naru's left shoulder, his arms wrapped around his lover's slim waist. "It is because I missed you, I missed you so much." He continued and then placed a kiss on the shoulder his chin was on.

"I missed you too." Naru said with a smile and he held his left hand up to caress his lover's left cheek, and the red-head leaned into the touch, and he said:

"And also because I want to get my book signed." And he felt his Naru twist again to face him.

"Now, now, you shouldn't have done that, you know I'd sign yours if you just ask." Naru said to his lover and waited for him to respond.

"M'well, I know but. I couldn't wait to see you. I drove to that bookstore first-hand, first thing I did after the plane boarded." Gaara said a bit embarrassed.

Naruto just blushed, silent. Just how sweet his lover can be? He smiled at the thought. Just then Gaara said:

"You're an awesome lover and author, baby, and I love you so."

"Hm?" Naruto questioned, wondering what made his lover suddenly say that.

"You remembered every detail of our love-making and put them to paper, although some of the scenes are not ours, hm?" Gaara said as he reached out to the book beside the couch, and held it up to meet Naru's face.

Naruto just gasped, wide-eyed, and blushed yet again. "Don't tell me-"

Gaara gave him a peck on the lips to cut him off. "Oh yes I did. I read your Love Leverage, from cover to cover." he happily said. He's so proud of his lover for writing yet another beautiful, beautiful book. He's been a fan of his lover slash author, he'd read all of his lover's books:

From Naru's first book Blossoming Becoming, A Heart-Shaped World, Your Rain of Kisses, Thorns of a Rose, Like Those Happy Children, Falling for a Narcissist, up to his newest. Naru writes romance, adding and mixing different genres at each book, he'd matured and experienced enough to write love scenes, first time in his Thorns of a Rose, and he put on lots in his latest book. Naruto's a best-selling author; his books would always hit the top ranks and he's received numerous awards and still counting. His second book, A Heart-Shaped World, was recently made into a movie and he has offers lining-up for his other works. Although Naru's gay, he writes about straight romance.

Gaara, smiling proudly and gazing lovingly at his blushing lover in his arms, leaned in to his lover's ear and whispered:

"I love you, my best-selling blue-eyed Blondie."

Naruto blushed even deeper at this. He looked into his lover's eyes affectionately, but just when he was about to say something a phone started to ring.

It was Gaara's phone. Gaara grabbed it from the glass table beside them and cussed before flipping it open to answer it. Damn technology, he cussed in his thought.

Gaara just said a couple of yes and no's, nodding so. He said 'okay' last before he shut his phone angrily, and turned to his blonde.

"Baby" he sighed, and started to get up. "It was my manager. I'd have to meet her out, said it's urgent. Will you be alright?" he explained.

Naru just nodded and Gaara pecked on his lover's forehead before turning to their bedroom to change and left afterwards. And then a phone rang, this time it was the telephone, and Naru picked it up knowing the caller id.

An hour passed. Gaara returned from where he was called to. Naruto was still sitting on the same couch, his head rested on the head rest, watching the late night news.

Gaara leaned over Naruto, Naruto sank on his couch so Gaara only got to kiss his forehead, Gaara was a bit disappointed. "I'm back baby." he greeted his blonde.

Naruto, in return, turned to his side locking his gaze at the glass table beside the couch. Gaara was a bit taken aback by his blonde's action, but he missed his blonde, not to mention his need to cuddle him, so he's not the least bit mad. He waited for his blonde to say something, but after minutes had passed and nothing still came, Gaara decided to poke Naruto's side. It was a light poke at first but the blonde wouldn't budge so he poked him some more. Gaara got the blonde's attention, the said blonde turned to face his red-haired lover.

"What's wrong with you now?" the blonde finally spoke.

"Baby, is it wrong to want you?" Gaara answered with a question.

"Huh, stupid emo." Naruto said to him self but still Gaara heard him. "What is wrong with you today?" he asked again, still not facing Gaara.

"Baby, did you not miss me? I've been away for a week, it's been two weeks since we last got together, our last date and last time we had-"

"So you really wanna fuck huh?" Naruto said harshly. "Fine, go fuck your self then." He added and suddenly stood up, pushing Gaara off and made him hit his back on the soft carpet.

Gaara hissed from the sudden fall, but he immediately got up to follow Naru to his bedroom. "Baby, wait!" he called out.

Naruto still continued, and he and Gaara got in the bedroom. Gaara asked him series of whats and whys, but he didn't care to listen to him and just continue on gathering his cloths from earlier. He took Gaara's shirt off— the shirt's too big for Naruto so it's the only thing he wore since it covered up to his upper knee, but of course he's wearing his boxers— and dressed back into his cloths.

"Baby-" Gaara said and grabbed Naruto's arm to get his attention, and it did but Naru just glared at him. "Where are you going?" he asked.

"Will you just- argh." Naruto tried to argue but didn't feel like it anymore and just plopped down and sat on the floor, cussing under his breath something about annoying emos. He seems to be having PMS, but, as if.

"Baby, what's wrong?" Gaara tried to ask again, his voice tender and full of concern. He crouched in front of Naru so he can be on eye level. "Come on, you can tell me." he urged his blonde. He's confused on what has gotten into his blonde. They were just fine at the bookstore earlier, up until before he was called out by his manager. His blonde seemed to be bothered by something, and he wants to find out what it is and figure out a way to help him not be bothered by it.

They've stayed on the floor in silence, Gaara decided to be seated. He's been looking into his blonde's face, but his blonde had been staring elsewhere. Someone thought it was long enough so finally that someone spoke.

"Ga-Gaara," Naruto started, Gaara just nodded not wanting to interrupt what his blonde has to say. "I, I don't think I love you anymore." Naruto said, still averting his eyes from his lover.

"Wha- What do you mean you don't?" Gaara asked, unbelieving what Naruto said. "You don't mean that, right baby?" Gaara asked his voice breaking, he want it confirmed, as much as he didn't want to believe it.

Naruto finally looked back to Gaara, he could clearly see the red-hair's expression, it's as if he was told he was gonna die, as if the destruction of the world was announced. He loves the blonde so much, he knew it since they've been together, since they met. Naruto meant the world to him now, he wouldn't last a second without the assurance that the blonde is his now. It's devastating for him to hear his blonde saying that he doesn't love him anymore, and it's more likely that the blonde is breaking off with him.

Naruto spoke again. "I-" he started. he lowered his head, his bangs covering his face, his shoulders quivering. "I…"
