Naruto nuzzled his face into the cheap synthetic fur and inhaled deeply before smiling softly. He loved the sent of Sasuke. The blond man's beautiful blue eyes clouded when his thought of his lover. Sasuke was away tonight. For the third night in a row. Chasing some low life creep on a killing spree. Naruto closed his eyes. He was so proud of Sasuke. Sasuke was a hero. He was saving lives every day. How could Naruto deny the fact that Sasuke was doing exactly what he needed to be doing? He couldn't.
But… on nights like this, he couldn't help but dislike Sasuke's choice of profession. Hate it even. Naruto sighed and once more pushed his face into the small stuffed panda bear, laughing quietly at the memories it held. He had bought it for Sasuke on their first Valentine's Day together, and he giggled when he remembered how the pale mans eyes had sparkled with amusement and love.
Naruto had got it mostly on a spur of the moment impulse on his way home that day; he had already bought Sasuke some other… 'toys'. But for some reason, Naruto thought the silly plushy would make his lover smile. And it had. Sasuke had loved the fuzzy little bear, and named it Paul. This had amused Naruto to no end, and he had threatened to tell all of his co-workers about his teddy bear until Sasuke had said if he didn't shut up, he wouldn't be aloud to fuck him for months. That had put an end to those annoying little conversations.
The pale uke slept with Paul in his arms or under his head every night… unless he was away. Then his tanned seme would press his face into it all until dawn, the beautiful smell of his lover keeping the nightmares at bay. Naruto would push everything out of his head, refusing to think about anything other then the stuffed animal in his arms.
He sat bolt upright at the sound of his extensive security system shuting down. Only three people other then him knew that code, his adopted parents, Kakashi and Iruka, and the love of his life. Naruto's pink lips stretched in a happy smile and before he trotted down the stairs to meet his lover, he kissed Paul on the nose for being such a good boy.
Ok, I know this is stupid and short and not BETA'd, but I was cuddling the real Paul(yes, he does really exsist) and this story wouldn't leave me alone. XD
