You know how when you're depressed, thoughts come flooding in awhole lot faster and you pay half-attention to what's being said? Yea, that's how this works. OOH! And commas are subbing for equal signs cuz equal signs here apparently don't work.

I own nothing, slight OC.

Here I am, yet again, at Ichiraku's. If you need to know why, you're an idiot. Cause the reason why IS an idiot. I'm an even bigger idiot for falling for him. Heh, at least he's my idiot.

There's just one thing I can't put my finger on...

"Why the hell do you love ramen so much, dobe?"

He's slurping up the noodles and gives that sexy moan of pleasure and satisfaction. What I wouldn't give to be on the receiving end of those. "It's God's gift to us Sasuke!" He continues to eat, but stops when he notices that I'm looking (glaring) at him. "Oh, you're serious?"

"No duh, Sherlock."

"Oh, well it's cause I can afford it and it doesn't spoil. But I really do love it!" He grins at me before resuming. I felt guilt creeping up. At least it makes more sense now. He has the Kyuubi sealed within him and villagers in the food market are more than likely to give him spoiled food. He must've gotten a limited amount of money from Sandaime and probably still does from the Godaime, if only to make sure he has money. Now I've got another thing bothering me...

Why did I never come to this conclusion if I'm such a genius?

"Though there is another reason..." Cue slurp and sexy moan. Really, what do I do to get one of those? We've been together 5 years, for the past 3 married, and when we went on our honeymoon, we never got sexually intimate because he wasn't ready!

"... that I love it."

And yet, he seems ready to make love with miso beef ramen. Only intimate thing we've done is necking and shoving our tongues down the other's throat. Don't get me wrong, I really do love Naruto.

"It's because..."

I just wish we could get sexually intimate. Lord knows how many times I've had to jerk off.

"it helps me..."

Hold on... Marriage, aniversary. Aniversary, today... Today's our fourth anniversary! Damnit! I can't believe I just now got that. And it's already too dark to find a gift! And why didn't Naruto ay anything?!

"practice..."

\sigh\ I need a drink.

"for when we have sex tonight."

PFFFFFFFFFFTT!!

WHAAAAT?!

"Happy 4th Anniversary, Koi." He drinks up the last of the soup and sets it down. Naruto's eyes are locked at me like a predator. He leans into my ear,

"Your present is in the bedroom," nibble on my ear lobe, "Just give me time to wrap myself." And a soft blow of his breath into my ear before he leaves.

Sex, anniverary, kinky, present...

Hm, I know exactly what to get him as well.

And I know a few stores that are open for this kind of thing.

But the thing that's really going through my mind?

It's gonna be a fun, active night.

Such.

a.

FUN.

ACTIVE.

night.
