Hello all. I know you are waiting for the next chapter for "From thief to lover", but this story had been in my head for so long and I had to tell it. The first little part I inserted for several reasons. I know you all are going to love this story.
Disclaimer: I'm only putting this on this chapter. I no own Naruto
Also unbetaeded...ed XD
Most of the day had already gone by and the night sky was making itself known. The nighttime cool breeze flew into the room, giving the sweaty occupants in the room nice sensation. Two boys, Kyuubi Sabaku and Shukaku Sabaku, sat back to back on a queen size bed each giving a tug on their 'instruments'. Grunts and moans could be heard as the two continued with their playing, each playing to their own muse in their heads.
Kyuubi Sabaku was seventeen. He had deep red neck length hair, courteous of his father and slightly golden skin, courteous to his mother. Longish eyelashes were closed over his red eyes and a pink blush colored his cheeks as sweat rolled off his forehead. With no shirt on, his perfect lean chest was adjoined with sweat as his long fingers squeezed and tugged his impressive sized instrument.
"Ahhhhh!" With that moan, he leaned his head onto the shoulder of his twin, Shukaku Sabaku. Even though they are twins, the two boys looked nothing alike. Shukaku had blonde hair, like his mother, only with a somewhat dirtier color to it. His skin color was paler than his brothers, much liked his father, but it still had a slight golden tinge to it. Unlike his brother, his golden eyes were half lidded and it was evident of the lust that could be seen in them. He wore a thin, skin-tight black long sleeve shirt that clung to his toned muscles on both his arms and his chest.
Like his brother, he also had an impressive instrument that he was tugging, both thinking of two different people. Both people who were also in the same house as they were in and were currently downstairs. Knock knock. "Kyuubi…Shukaku…are you two okay in there?" Scratch that. One of them was downstairs and the other was right outside their door.
"Shukaku….Kyuubi? Is something wrong?" Kyuubi moaned longingly as his name was called again by the person outside his door. Oh, how he loved that voice. It sounded so sweet and innocent. He would do anything to have that voice moaning under him. The person behind the door thought he heard someone moan and got worried. "Kyuubi? Was that you?" Kyuubi let out a scuffled moan in response. Shukaku, understanding his brother dilemma, decided he would help out his brother in his current 'situation'.
"Yeah Mom. Kyuubi's…fine!" Shukaku amazed his self that he didn't stammer as he yelled out to reassure their mother. He thought that they were in the clear when he heard, "Shukaku. What's going on in there?" He nearly came at the raspy, deep voice that had just come through the door. With a moan, he indicated to Kyuubi that he was going to need help himself. "Ah!...N-nothing, Dad! We're f-f-fine!"
"…Are you sure? You two sound…tensed." Kyuubi let out a moan in response to the voice and Shukaku had to shout over the boy in response. "Yea-yeah! We're…FUCK!" Shukaku hadn't expected to come, but that he did, right after Kyuubi. "Shukaku! Watch your language!" Shukaku moaned out another fuck as he load finished itself off, ruining the sheets he was sitting on.
"What was that, Shukaku!" Shukaku could only grunt. Was his dad trying to get him hard again! "He said okay, Dad." Kyuubi picked himself out of the bed and began taking off the sheets, his boxer and his pants now pulled up, the button and zipper still undone. Shukaku swallowed a lump in his throat before asking, "Was there something you need, Mom?" He began helping Kyuubi clean up by putting on the sheets as Kyuubi went and put the dirty pile in the dirty close hamper that sat in their combined bathroom.
"I was just coming to tell you two that we need to get ready to go to the Open House your school is holding. We're going to be leaving soon and you guys know how your dad doesn't like to wait." Kyuubi sighed as he listened to his mother's voice, allowing Shukaku to respond for him. "Okay. We'll be down in a little while."
There was shuffling heard from the other side of the door before the twins heard their mother say," Okay. We'll be waiting downstairs." The sound of feet leaving indicated that their parents had left. They waited another minute after the feet disappeared before releasing the breath they were holding. Kyuubi jumped onto his brother's freshly-made bed and stretched.
"That was too close, Shukaku." Shukaku sat down beside his twin and sighed. "Too fucking close." He felt as Kyuubi sat up and pushed him in his back. Looking back at his brother, he cocked up an eyebrow and asked, "What?"
"You know mom doesn't like you using those words. Dad will kill you if he hears you saying them." Shukaku scoffed as he turned away and murmured, "Momma's boy." The next thing he knew, Kyuubi's foot made itself known on his back and he was kicked out of his bed. He growled out, warningly, "Kyuubi."
"You fucking crossed the fucking damn line, jackass!" Shukaku knew he crossed the line then. Not just because his brother told him he did, but also because Kyuubi had just yelled at him, dirtying his once pure mouth. He sighed. The look of betrayal was too much for him to even look at on his brother's face. "I-I'm sorry, Kyuubi. I didn't mean to get you mad." Kyuubi seemed to calm down at the apology before replying, "No. I'm not mad, just…frustrated."
Shukaku didn't reply, letting Kyuubi know to keep going. "It's just that...the one person…the only person who can actually arouse me is right downstairs and the only reason I can't go after him, besides he's married, is because he's MY MOM! I would give anything to be in the place of dad."
Shukaku picked his self up and looked at his brother, knowing what he's going through. "I know how you feel." "Of course you do, Shukaku. You're in the same boat as me, hopelessly in love with your daddy, wishing you could be in mom's place." "But dad looks so happy when he's with mom," Shukaku sighed as he sat on his bed again. "And mom look like he's about to burst when he's with dad." Kyuubi let out another sigh before adding, "I could never break them up. No matter how much it tears me apart on the inside to say this, they belong together. They instantly knew it was love when they first saw each other."
Shukaku chuckled," Mom practically reminds us every day. True love at first sight." "And that's why it's our job to make sure nobody tries to come between them." Shukaku smirked. "If we can't have them, nobody else can." Kyuubi gave his brother another shove, lightly this time, while adding, "Possessive bastard."
"Damn right I am. Now go get dress. We can't keep them waiting." Kyuubi nodded his head as he got up off the bed and went through their combined bathroom to his room.
Naruto stood uncomfortably at his husband's side, his nervousness kicking in. He was not a shy person, maybe when his husband displays public affection to him, but he was not shy. It discomforted him to have to go to social parties like the one he was at now. Naruto had to suck it up. It's their kids' first open house at their new school. He would do anything for them. Even if it means suffering through an uptight social party like the one he was currently at.
After Gaara got finish talking to one of the school's professor, he turned to his side and looked at his tensed spouse. Even when he's looking tense, Gaara thought that Naruto was the sexiest man alive. He looked over his spouse of twenty years. Even though he had married Naruto at a young age, Naruto kept the same appearance. Naruto had a lean, strong body, mostly from working at his night job. Naruto wasn't working at his night job as often as he did when he was younger, but he did work enough to get his body to stay the same way it has for the last twenty years, even after the pregnancy. Naruto was currently wearing well-fitting slacks and off-white, thin, pull-over sweater that had a swoop neck. Naruto had a naturally golden skin that covered all over his body and went perfectly with his golden blonde hair. He also had the brightest cerulean colored eyes that practically showed whatever emotion he was feeling, long blonde eyelashes that draped over his eyes, and three fox-like scars that sat on both of his cheeks.
Gaara placed one of his hands on Naruto's cheek and rubbed his thumb over his scars. He noticed as Naruto visibly flinch as his scar was touched and frowned. They had been together for twenty years, and Naruto still was uncomfortable to let his scars be touched, even by him. He gave a frustrated sigh that he realized Naruto must have heard when the smaller man looked away as if he was ashamed. He hated that look on his little beauty's face. He bent down and gave Naruto a kiss. He rose and smirked at the blush sitting on Naruto's cheeks.
"Gaara. You know I don't like you doing that in public." The pout on Naruto's face was only making it hard for Gaara to not swoop down and plant another kiss on the man, only longer than the last and it would probably led to something that would most definitely be called porn. "And you know how much I hate when you look upset. If you want, after the open house, we can go dancing at your favorite club." Naruto eyes seemed to light up at this. "You haven't been there in a long time. Why do you want to come now?" "Because," Gaara smiled,"I know someone very special to me wants me to go there with him."
Naruto's face twisted up mixed with both confusion and jealousy. "Who? Who is he? I've been asking you for weeks to come with me and now-," He stopped himself as he realized who it was his husband was talking about and a blush creped over his face as he released a, "Oh." Gaara only laughed at the innocence his spouse had and Naruto just pouted.
"Is that the famous Gaara Sabaku laughing? The world must have frozen over and he must be the cause of it." Gaara stopped laughing and turned to face the person who dared themselves to say this, his glare fully intact. His eyes stopped and landed on a familiar face from high school. "Neji Hyuuga. It's been a while." The man called Neji responded by smirking.
Naruto came closer to his husband back and peeked over his shoulder. It frustrated him at the moment that Gaara was somewhat taller than him. Putting how he feels now aside, he loved his husband's height. He loved his husband overall appearance, to be exact. Gaara stood at a good six feet since he knew his husband was taller than him by a good two inches and he was, at least, five foot seven, maybe eight. Gaara had blood red hair and somewhat pale skin that covered over his own strong body. Gaara was wearing black, well-pressed suit with a red button-down which managed to him a dark, yet sexy air to him. Dark rings were obvious around his husband's eyes, but instead of hindering his appearance, it seemed to help it, enhancing the turquoise color of his eyes. Personally, Naruto thought the hottest thing on his husband face was the love kanji he had tattooed over his eye.
"Yes it has. I haven't seen you since our second year in college. What brings you here, Sabaku?" "I could be asking you the same thing, Hyuuga. Last time I'd check, you don't have any children." Neji only chuckled, before adding, "How right you are. I'm actually a professor here. I teach both History and Philosophy." Gaara scoffed. "Figures." Neji kept his smirk in place as he said, "You still haven't told me why you're here."
"Not that it's any of your business, Hyuuga, but it just so happens to be my kids' open house." Neji quirked up an eyebrow at this. "I didn't know you have a child, let alone that you got married. Since I wasn't invited to this wedding, there must not have been one. You got little bastards to take care of, Sabaku?"Gaara knew the other man was only teasing, but he wasn't planning on saving him from the wrath of his spouse, who, he could tell without even looking at him, was pissed beyond all reason.
"Who do you think you are calling, my children BASTARDS!?" Neji noticeably flinched upon hearing how much anger was in the voice talking to him. Neji was not going to lie. He was scared. He would never admit it out loud, but he was scared. He looked at the person who came out from behind Gaara and nearly gasped, the keyword being nearly. The person in front of him was breathtaking, even with such a lithe look his face. And the fact that person practically whispered those words to him with so much venom only seemed to turn him on even more.
"I—I'm sorry, but you are?" Neji cursed himself for stuttering, noticing the smirk on Gaara's face. "I happen to be the so-called bastards' mother, Naruto Uzumaki-Sabaku" "Naruto Uzumaki-Sabaku?" Neji mentally praised himself for not stuttering again as he repeated after the young man, absentmindedly. "Yes, that is exactly what I said. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I am the person who has married Gaara Sabaku, and who has given birth to our twins. I'm so sorry that you weren't invited to our wedding, but since you're one of Gaara's friends, and he sent out his own invitations, it can't be helped."
Neji was sure that the person in front of him was being sarcastic on the last part, but there was something he thought he heard come from the young man's mouth that he had to question. "Did you say you gave birth to twins?" Naruto sighed, hearing this particular question all the time, becoming more tiresome every time he hears it. "Yes, I gave birth to my twins. Yes, I am a man. No, I was not a female who got a sex change. No, I am not a hermaphrodite. As I said before, I am a man who was lucky enough to give birth to two boys. No, I am not lying. I have pictures and a video of me giving birth, courtesy of Gaara. Yes, they are real. No, they are not photo shopped. And lastly, yes, I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, the book of world records also has me in their book because I am the first real man to have ever giving birth. Have I answered all, if not some of your questions?"
Neji blinked as the information processed in his head. The look on Naruto's face was daring Neji to not believe him and Neji was not about to argue with him, especially since he believed what Naruto was telling him. "I'm sorry if I have offended you in anyway." He held his hand out to Naruto and after a hesitant pause, Naruto took his hand.
Neji's hand was smooth yet rough at the same time. Naruto looked over the man. Neji was tall, maybe an inch taller than his husband. He had milky white skin that seemed to contrast with his waist long brown hair that was tied near the bottom of his hair. Neji wore tan slacks, with a white button-down that seemed to actually suit him. Naruto would admit, the man was sexy, but it was also kind of creepy being stared at by his pupil-lacking lilac colored eyes. They frightened him, almost as much as the feeling he was getting that he was being watched.
A small shudder past through his body, after Neji let go of his hand. He went to his husband's side and unconsciously grabbed his hand. Gaara looked down at his spouse. Gaara could tell that something was upsetting him. Naruto had let out another shudder, only this one was more violent then the last one, but not so violent that other people could tell besides himself. Gaara could easily tell that something was upsetting his spouse; the only question of the matter was what?
Gaara opened his mouth to ask Naruto what was the matter, when Neji interrupted. "I'm guessing you haven't seen Sasuke Uchiha yet, huh." Gaara interest seemed to shift a bit, but he made sure that Naruto knew he was still important to him, squeezing his hand for reassurance. "No, I haven't seen Uchiha. Why would he be here in the first place?" Neji only smirked. "Why don't you ask him for yourself? He was the one to point you out when you two came in. I think he wants to talk with you. Follow me. I'll lead you to him."
As Neji began walking away, Gaara was a bit hesitant to follow after him. He wasn't sure if he wanted to see the Uchiha again or not. It had been a while since the two had seen each other, but there was a gut feeling telling him that he will regret letting the Uchiha back into his life again. A gut feeling that something bad, if not horrible, will happen if he was to walk over to the Uchiha , even to just say hi. He decided not to listen to his gut feeling, for whatever reason, he decided to go and meet up with the Uchiha again.
He began walking, but stopped when he felt his arm being tugged. He looked back at Naruto, concern clearly written on his face. "What's the matter?" There was a slight pause; Naruto was looking at the floor, instead of in his eyes. Gaara knew something was definitely wrong with Naruto then. Naruto was a straightforward person and spoke his mind when something was bothering him.
He didn't like seeing Naruto, his Naruto, uncomfortable. He closed the small distance between them and let one of his fingers of the hand that wasn't holding Naruto's hand rest under Naruto's chin and tilted Naruto's head up so that they were staring into each other eyes.
A small blush formed on Naruto's cheeks as he stared into Gaara's intense eyes. "I-I don't know. Honestly, it's more like a gut feeling, but something is telling me that we need to leave." Gaara squeezed Naruto's hand in a reassuring way. "Don't worry, love. We'll leave right after we see the Uchiha. It's been a while, and I wonder how he's doing, success wise. Our companies compete against each other, and I just wish to size the competition up. Is that okay with you?"
Naruto's face was deep red. He was having a hard time keeping his composure after Gaara called him love. He was the one who normally comes up with various pet names, so the fact that Gaara had called him by a pet name, especially the one that Gaara called him while they were having sex, really hit his 'no-no on public affection' button.
"Gaara!" Naruto all but whispered/whined as he pouted. Gaara chuckled at this and bent down so that his mouth was on Naruto's ear and seductively whispered, "Keep that up and I might have to show everybody in this room exactly how addicting you are. Moans and all. You wouldn't want that now would you," Gaara proceeded with his threat by licking the shell of Naruto's ear while adding, "Love."
Naruto visibly shuddered again, this time from pleasure. He responded to his husband's question by pouting again while adding, "Tease." Gaara only chuckled in response. "Come on Naruto. Unless…" Naruto knew he was going go regret asking, but his curiosity got the best of him. "Unless what, Gaara?"
Now, Gaara knew that Naruto was the only one who could actually affect him in a sexually way, but the fact that Naruto had asked that question so cutely, his head tilting to the side a bit, innocence clearly written on his face, had his hormones raging. He personally knew that Naruto was not innocent. The man could put a porn star to shame. Still, Naruto gave off the air of an innocent and pure virgin, which, again, Gaara knew that he was nowhere near being any of that.
Hormones taking over, Gaara wrapped his arms around Naruto's small waist and brought their hips together. Their forehead touched and Gaara stared down into Naruto's eyes as Naruto stared up into Gaara's, his face turning redder as time went by. "Unless," Gaara started, having Naruto's complete attention on him, "you want me to take you right now. I'm in the mood, and I'll make sure that the only person you'll worry about is me."
Naruto's shyly looked away from Gaara then looked back at him at an upward glance. Gaara was just about to give another perverted comment, when he was interrupted, yet again, by the Hyuuga. "You two should make porn. That was actually pretty hot." Naruto, startled that somebody was actually watching them, jumped back, pushing Gaara back in the opposite direction. Gaara let out a frustrated sigh before turning his glare onto the Hyuuga. Neji only smirked before turning around and walking away.
Gaara followed behind Neji, Naruto close on his heel. They walked passed other parents and administrators, heading to the back of the room. It was an impressive room, to Naruto anyway. It had a high ceiling with many columns. The walls were practically windows with a curve top, only the entrance wall and the wall to the right of it looked like actual walls. From the glass wall you could clearly see the garden that grew outside and the stars that glowed around the full moon. The room had a golden glitz to it that screamed fancy. Every single thing in the room was elaborate, from the ten or more glass chandeliers that hung on the ceilings, to the design that covered the door frame. Even the snacks and the dishes that go with them were practically saying, "I'm too expensive for you to even touch."
That's why Naruto didn't like such an environment. It just seemed too…strict.
They continued walking, heading to the back of the room. Naruto wasn't sure, but it looked to him as though the room was getting darker, as if the light of the chandeliers couldn't reach this part of the room. As they got closer, Naruto swore he could hear laughter, maybe more of a giggle, but it was definitely there. They got to the last table of the whole room and Naruto was able to see where the giggling was coming from.
Sitting at the table were two figures. One figure was a voluptuous woman. She had long red hair that hung loosely around her and framed her strong face, and glasses to add to her features. She was wearing a snug, sultry, black dress that dipped lowly over her breast, had a long cut up the side, and had no back to it. Naruto would admit, she was very pretty, but she gave off an air of being…easy. She was currently sitting on the lap of the other figure she was with, giggling and moaning as the other was letting his hands roam over her body as he sucked on her neck.
They were so busy with their current affair that they hasn't notice them until Neji cleared his throat, gaining a glare from the girl, and an irritated look from Sasuke. Neji only smirked at their heated gazes as he continued. "I've brought with me, Gaara Sabaku, and his…lovely wife, Naruto Uzumaki-Sabaku." Sasuke shifted his gaze from Neji to Gaara, a person he hadn't seemed for years. He looked over the red head. Gaara still looked good, just not as good as he was.
Wait. Did Neji say that Gaara had a wife…and a lovely one at that? Knowing Neji, she was probably ugly as fuck, and he was just trying to mess with him. Sasuke decided to see this so-called 'lovely' wife, as Neji had put it. He shifted his gaze over again and his eye immediately widen. Calling Gaara's wife lovely was an insult. Gaara's wife was practically sex on two legs.
Sasuke stood up, not really giving a care for Karin, the girl on his lap, as she fell to the ground with a loud thud. "Ow! Sasuke!" Sasuke cringed as Karin whined his name. Her voice was really annoying. He was only putting up with her for the aftermath. Now, if…Naruto was it?...had a voice to match his appearance, Sasuke might have to steal the man from Gaara. "Hello. I am Sasuke Uchiha. How are you today…" He held his hand out to the little blond standing beside Gaara for him to take and the blond did just that.
Naruto reached his one of hands out and took Sasuke's hand as he replied, "Naruto. Naruto Uzumaki-Sabaku and I'm doing just fine, Sasuke Uchiha."
Sasuke actually felt his spine tingle with delight upon hearing Naruto say his name. That voice was an absolute turn on for him. He felt Naruto start to pull his hand away, and he grabbed it before it slipped from his grip. He then brought Naruto's hand to his lips and placed a small kiss on his hand. He stared at Naruto the entire time he was doing this, and smirked as the boy's amazing blue eyes widen and his face turns red. Yeah, he wouldn't mind keeping Naruto all to himself. Alas, there was a small problem to his dream.
"I would appreciate if you keep you paws OFF my wife, Uchiha." Gaara had slapped Sasuke's hand from Naruto's grip and had Naruto behind his back, as if he was trying to shield him from the Uchiha. Sasuke only smirked, his eyes slowly slipping back to the little blonde. The blush on Naruto's face as Naruto tried not to look back at Sasuke only had Sasuke thinking about grabbing the little blond and showing him how much better he was compared to his husband.
Gaara practically growled as Sasuke's eyes continued to linger on his Naruto. Sasuke shifted his gaze up from Naruto and made eye contact with Gaara. "Don't worry, Sabaku. I'll keep my hands off your wife." Gaara seemed not to take Sasuke's word, but he wasn't up for arguing with the Uchiha. "What do you want to talk about, Uchiha?" The smirk on the Sasuke's face never faltered as Sasuke went back to the chair he had rose from and sat back down.
"I just wanted to see how my old friend is doing. It's not every day I get to see my competitor's outside from work. Mind telling me why you're here?" Gaara eyed the Uchiha before replying, "My sons are coming to this school. They are going to finish their senior year here. Why are you here?"
"It seems as though I might be one of your sons' English teacher. I teach both AP and Honors 12 English. I mean, unless your children are going to standards English, but knowing you, Sabaku, they're going to be in one of my classes." The smirk on Sasuke's face seemed to be teasing Gaara, and Gaara never liked to be teased. However, before Gaara could retort Naruto spoke up. "Um, Mister Uchiha, I thought you were my Gaara's competitor in the company."
Both Gaara and Sasuke looked at Naruto as he came from around Gaara, still lingering by Gaara's side. The tingle of pleasure ran up Sasuke's spine as Naruto said his name again. He gave the man a soft, almost unnoticeable smile before replying, "The Uchiha Company is a competitor of The Sabaku Company. I happen to be the president of the company, but I'm only needed during the summer. I needed something to do for the other months I'm not working, and so I decided to do teaching for my pastime."
Naruto watched the Uchiha as he spoke. He would admit that Sasuke was sexy. Sasuke had to be between Neji and Gaara in height. He looked as though he could be a model with pale skin that seemed to give the man a bit of a glow especially with the black suit, and the midnight blue button down he was wearing. He had jet black hair that framed his face delicately but jetted out in the back, and intense onyx eyes that seemed to bore into Naruto every time they were on him.
Gaara wasn't sure if he should punch the Uchiha in the jaw or to gorge his eyes out for staring at his wife as if he was undressing him with his eyes. Gaara decided to go for a less violent approach as long red hair came into his vision. "Uchiha, you should really learn how to entertain your guests. Your little whore is starting to get jealous."
Sasuke, Neji, and Naruto all turned their attention to Karin, who was currently glaring at Naruto. When she noticed Naruto looking at her, she stuck out her tongue at him in a childish manner then smirked triumphantly when he gave her a confused look. There was a slight moment as Karin noticed that it was not just Naruto, but all of them were looking at her, but her pride was too high to seem ad tough she got caught. Instead, she turned her gaze to Sasuke and gave him the sexist smile she could offer. Having all their attention on her, she walked slowly over to Sasuke, swaying her hips as she walked.
In Sasuke's opinion, she was doing just fine, until she opened her mouth. "Sasuke lets ditch this place. Seeing a middle class person in a room full of richies has ruined the party for me." She placed herself on Sasuke's lap and wrapped her arms around his neck, obvious to the deadly glare she was receiving for three of the men. She brought her mouth to Sasuke's ear and whispered, "C'mon Sasuke, I'm really in the mood right now."
Sasuke was pretty pissed at the girl. To just insult a person who was way classier than how she was acting was very hypocritical of her, and Sasuke just saw that as another form of lying. He was just about to tell her to fuck off when he was interrupted by
Ring Ring
Naruto pulled an orange cell phone from his pocket and answered it.
"Hello?" "Hey Naruto!" "…Jiraiya?...You old pervert. How did you get my number?" "As your boss and your uncle, of course I have your number. Listen, I need you to come in. We're short too many people and I just need you to take Temari's place." "(worried) What's wrong with Temari?"
The three men who were listening in all were curious now. They all knew Temari. Temari's Gaara's older sister, the oldest of the Sabaku children. She was a very strong, demanding, and leading type. Thought that something was wrong with her had their interests.
"Well, she called in sick today." "Sick? But Temari's immune system is the most strongest-"
beep beep beep
Naruto stopped what he was saying and looked at his phone. "Hold on pervert. I got another call."
Beep
"Hello?" "Naruto." "Temari! Jiraiya just called and told me you were sick, but you sound as healthy as ever." "I'm not sick Naruto, but I need you to do a favor for me." "And that would be…" "Take my place for me today at work." "Temari! You know today's my off day." "But Naruto, you barely work three times a week. I need a break, and Shikamaru just got home from his two month business trip. Please, Naruto?"
Naruto sighed. He could relate to how Temari was feeling. Gaara had to leave for a business trip for three weeks once, and by the time he did return, Naruto had became a clingy little spouse. The fact that Temari had to go through the same thing, only longer, hit a soft spot in his heart.
"Okay, Temari. I'll take your shift. "Thank you so much, Naruto! I promise to pay you back." "You're my sister. I don't need any payment. Now go to your lazy husband and show him how much you miss him." "Bye Naruto."
Naruto waited a bit before switching back over to his boss. "Okay, Jiraiya. I'll come in today." "Great. You got two hours. Thanks Naruto." Jiraiya hung up the phone and Naruto was met with a dial tone. He sighed as he clicked off his phone and replaced it in his pocket before turning back to the group. He was startled when he noticed all the attention was on him and gave a sheepish laugh.
"Um…Gaara, I have to go to work tonight. I'm sorry but I'm going to have to cancel our plans." Gaara rubbed circles on Naruto's back as he replied, "its okay. Naruto. You can tell me about it later. Right now, we have to get home so you can change." Naruto nodded his head in agreement with Gaara. He was about to leave, when he got an idea.
"Or, maybe I can go home and change and you can get a ride from one of your friends and meet me there. And they can come too, that is, if they want to." Naruto's eyes were bright from the idea he just came up with and the brightest had Sasuke hooked. Sasuke was about to offer to give Gaara a ride, when the nuisance on his lap spoke up. "As if Sasuke's going to do something for you, Blondie."
Naruto shrugged his shoulders at her comment and turned to Neji. "Would you give Gaara a ride? You'll love it. You can even hang out for a while." Neji kept his eye contact with the shorter man as he smiled. "I don't see why not." Naruto's smile grew tree times more enchanting and he ran up and gave Neji a hug. "Thank you, Neji." As soon as Naruto pulled back, he ran to Gaara and gave him a small peck on his lips as he slipped the keys from his husband's jacket. "Make sure Kyuubi and Shukaku are safe before you leave, okay? Bye."
Sasuke watched as Naruto left, jealousy making a home inside of him. He roughly pushed Karin off his lap, and stood to leave away from her. "But-but Sasuke. You were my ride! How am I suppose to get home?"
"You should have thought of that before you pissed me off." And with that, Sasuke left, followed by a chuckling Neji, and a smirking Gaara.
Well… what do you think? Read and review. :{)
