I don't know how long this has progressed for.

"Aah.."

This constant, numbing pain I ...

"Mmm..."

When will it stop?

"Sasuke..."


"Naruto."

Upon hearing his name, Naruto opened his ultramarine glazed-over eyes to another day. He closed them briefly and laid there, reminiscing about nostalgic memories to the replace the ones he was creating now. He opened his eyes again and began to adjust to the sunlight peering through the cobalt curtains; he peeked with his silted eyes surrounded by sleep, around the vicinity of the house he knew all to well before gazing at his desire.

"Sasuke."

Sasuke Uchiha.

His rival? His friend? His enemy?

He didn't even know what to call him anymore.

He continued looking at the eighteen year old adolescent. His body had developed dramatically compared to when they were at the tender age of sixteen, not to forget the fact the he was a complete contrast of him; inherited from his beloved deceased parents, a mop of ebony hair highlighted with Dresden blue when the light emerging from the sun kissed it. His head of hair framed his flawless, alabaster face that glowed in the moonlight when the stars illuminated and surrounding its pale mother; Naruto always wondered how Sasuke never received scars from the numerous battles he had. Speaking of which-

"I'm going to the training grounds; do you want to spar?"

Do I?

"Yes. A lot."

"Hn."

'Nothing has changed.'

Heh; that statement isn't even applicable now.

Even though Sasuke was trying to act like nothing had happened and that they are just ninjas who happened to be in the same team, which concluded that they will be either friends or rivals (which he still didn't know what they were after all these years); it did. He knew and Sasuke knew what occurred last night due to lust and longing...Naruto pondered how long the boy was going to disguise the issue before his eyes and cock.

After all, they where both stark naked in his bed.

Cerulean eyes followed the naked boy stretching out his probably sore muscles, Naruto always admire his muscular anatomy; he did work tirelessly for it in the end. Sasuke got out of his bed in the bare; Naruto began to bore his eyes into Sasuke; redefining the image of him every time he saw he like this while gaping with his mouth open at Sasuke; he only now cognizanced the stickiness gluing him and the bed sheets together due to the dried, white, crusty body fluids he made with the one before him. Sasuke retrieved his long forgotten clothing previously from last night and headed towards the bathroom.

What Sasuke didn't know was that when he closed the door; Naruto broke down into tears.


"KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUSTU!"

Umpteenth duplicates of the vivacious sun-kissed boy bolted towards their prey.

"KATON: GOKAKYŪ NO JUSTU!"

Chakra previously malaxated inside of Sasuke was converted into fire and expelled from his mouth as a malicious roaring flame; The flames engulfed Naruto's clones and inevitably they dispersed and left a crater on the training grounds.

"KUSO! That was amazing..." Naruto huffed out and fell to the floor from exhaustion.

"I know, dobe."

After hearing this, Naruto darted to sit up straight and glimpsed to see Sasuke crouching down cleaning a wound on his ankle which was bleeding profusely which he received from one of Naruto's previous attacks; for a hasty moment Naruto felt proud.

Acknowledging eyes burning into the back of his head, Sasuke tied his neatly wrapped bandage up and put his ointment back in his pouch; stood and finally looked at the eyes longing for attention.

"You can be such a dick sometimes."

Naruto examined the onyx eyes that belonged to the other, he glared at him sourly to find that he couldn't read Sasuke's expression.

"I don't understand why you can't just take a complim-"

"That didn't stop you last night."

"...What?"

"I said 'That didn't stop you last night'."

Naruto couldn't believe what he had just heard.

Was he serious?

Naruto couldn't believe that he waited FOURTEEN HOURS for an acknowledgement of what had happened the night before; for this male to have the audacity to say 'That didn't stop you last night.'

Did he have DICKHEAD written on his forehead?

Naruto went ballistic.

However, in that short space of time; Naruto had an epiphany.'I should just walk away.'And that was what he conducted. So he stood up, gathered his equipment and turned to walk away from the prick.

"...!"

Before he could perform a reflex, he felt a hand vice-grip his wrist which gained enough control to throw him ruthlessly to the ground.

"UGH!STO-"

Naruto began screaming, flailing and attacking his enemy to gain released from the way he was pinned to the ground. He jerked his knee in the man's ribcage and received a grant from the man on him; he was about to proceed another but he was silenced by a pale hand coated in sweat and dirt; He felt sick.

They were both panting and on the verge of exhaustion.

He also mentally noted that this man was straddling his lower regions, and felt his blood rushing to all the wrong places; Great.

After Naruto recomposed himself, he opened his fatigued eyes to a pair of glaring, Sharingan that he knew all too well...which only belonged to-

"Sasuke...mmf" Naruto tried to growl through the raven's palm but, it was muffled. Naruto felt his hot breath burning his skin.

Sasuke removed his hand.

The both of them indefatigably bored into each other's eyes.

After some time, Naruto hissed in malice

"If I think about it, you are really horrible."

"Tch. To be honest, I don't even know why I'm spending my time with you."

A single, lonely tear left a watery, saddened, azure eye.

Sasuke leaned forward and licked it away and then finally spoke.

"I'm not that nice and I'm not that affectionate-"

"Then why did you-"

"This is me trying, Naruto."

"But you're not even-"

"Yes I am. A lot."

Naruto closed his eyes and gathered enough strength; even though he was becoming an emotional wreck, to push Sasuke off of him.

"Ugh..Naruto-"

"STOP!"

Sasuke didn't know what to do, other than stare in awe.

Then looked up and felt a weighted droplet fall on his forehead, that was followed by many; Great sheets of water began pouring out of the dark skies; The rain looked like tears from the eyes of the clouds, however they were heaving and painful the rain crashed deafeningly on the couple. Naruto felt as though the rain was numbing the pain he was feeling right now but still the screaming rain was they only sound observable causing them to roar for each other to be heard, due the rain overpowering them both; they who were in the midst of a life-changing event.

For better or for worse.

"Rain has begun falling down; how fitting. Eh?" Sasuke smirked.

"Tell me today, now. Don't just smile. But answer, and don't just change the subject." Naruto agonized.

"I don't know what you want me to s-"

"I'm crazy about you."

"..."


Rain fell harder.

"Naruto; last night... was a mistake."

"Why? W-How...how can you say that?!" Naruto sprinted towards him and sparked him hard in his temple with his fist.

Sasuke came tumbling to the wet soil; groaning in pain.

Naruto sat on top on him and pulled him up by his collar.

Sasuke spat out blood, and his teeth clicked upon the impact. He glanced at Naruto short off a second and then just gazed up letting the downpour strike his face and body.

"Why aren't you talking? What do I have to do, what do you want?!"

Naruto pushed him back down, splashing wet soil over them both and stared at him with pain and desire written all over his face.

"...I can't adjust to this."

"Do you love me?"

Do l? Yes, with all my heart.

"...If I told you I did, would you tell me your love?"

"..."

Naruto smashed his knuckle in Sasuke's slippery cheek.

"Fuck..aah."

"If that question won't be answered; I want to know why last night happened."

"Why we fucked?"

Naruto punched him again; the connection was heard from afar.

"You need to stop punching me usuratonkachi; I'll become a blockhead like you."

Sasuke felt long-awaited drops of sorrow; waterfalls of regret. They began to hit his cold, hard cheek. He knew almost immediately that they weren't raindrops.

He opened his eyes and turned his head painfully to look at where the stone droplets where coming from... the one before him's face glistened in with salty water in his eyes and running down his cheeks.

Naruto weeping on him; because of him.

How ironic.

"Naruto..."

"WHAT AM I TO YOU?!" He roared.

"..."

"I see myself falling for your tricks, you do whatever you want as you play with me..."

"..."

"I see myself... being played by the palm of your hands, are you having fun? IS THIS FUNNY?!"

"...Naruto, please."

"This is a sad game only to me." Naruto said lifelessly.

"Nar-"

"I'm not your toy, Sasuke."

At that moment, Naruto felt well-known soft but, wet lips caress his own.

He sobbed in despair but, finally gave in to the temptation. Sasuke worked his lips over the blonde's mouth and licked his bottom lip to gain entrance; Naruto moaned in melancholy and opened his mouth allowing it to be ravished.

They broke apart as soon as they started, which only a thread of saliva connecting them as one.

Sasuke wiped his mouth.

"Sas-"

"You probably don't know everything about me; you haven't even seen half of me."

Naruto finally saw something in Sasuke's eyes; his visage finally broke down and he showed a strong expression of misery.

Naruto whispered through the ear-splitting rain "But don't you know? Don't you think I know all of that? I can't let you go.."

Sasuke sighed.

"You are making a mistake right now, I don't care about anything right now, Naruto."

"I constantly make mistakes and overcome them; you're my first bond Sasuke. I would make mistakes if it means that I get to see you, talk to you...touch you."

Sasuke turned his head away from Naruto and let his indigo locks cover his eyes so Naruto couldn't see the emotional painted in bright colours over his face.

Suddenly, Naruto grabbed Sasuke's bruised face softly and put it back in its previous position; facing him.

"Put your eyes to mine."

Sasuke finally glanced at him.

"...When I try to forget you, you come to me again. When I try to catch you, you run away again." Naruto sobbed and continued.

"You hurt me so much...everyone tells me to cut you out, that it'll be over if I just turn around..."

"But..." Naruto took a deep breath, trying to congregate his words for what he was about to say next.

"...I can't. I won't turn my back on you; no matter what to put me through.I don't care about how you feel anymore;I love you, Sasuke. I love you so much it hurts, I can't breathe if I ever think about harm coming your way...I can't take this anymore."

Naruto got off of Sasuke and stood. He walked towards his equipment, repossessed his belongings for one final time that day.

Before leaving he pronounced strongly:

"Don't speak and don't follow me, Sasuke."

"..."

"Just...leave me alone."

Naruto pleaded before fading into the darkness.


Sasuke didn't follow him.
