A/N: Hello people! I know I have other stories that I DESPERATELY need to work on right now but I just wanted to make this one little one-shot to assure everyone that I am alive and well. My school has been killing me that's all and I desperately need inspiration for my other stories.

Anyway, this one-shot was getting too long so I decided to split it. This is part 1 and part 2 will come out shortly. I just need extreme inspiration for that one. I hope you enjoy this one-shot and Happy Holidays! May I finish one of my stories next year!

The Winter Home

Pt. 1

"Finally! We're here!" Naruto exclaims jumping up and down in the snow.

All Sasuke could think of as he observes his friend acting like a little kid is, 'Does that guy have to be so loud first thing in the morning?' After closing the door to the Chrysler start minivan and as other people are exiting out of the vehicle, Sasuke looks up at the building before him.

Guess the young raven head can't completely blame the blonde to be acting so unlike his age – but the guy is in his second year of high school for crying out loud! A bit of self-control would be nice. Though as mentioned before, can't blame the guy for being so happy. Where the two high scholars are right now is none other than the house they have been coming to every Christmas break for as long as they can remember. It actually traditionally started as only the Uchiha family and the Uzumaki family coming to this house since the families has been such good friends. But as time went on and lives have moved on, Naruto and Sasuke still come to the winter house without their parents and now with their friends. Coming out the minivan to look at the familiar Winter Home are Uzumaki Kyuubi, Naruto's older brother, Katsu Deidara, Akasuna Sasori, Hyuuga Neji and his cousin, Hyuuga Hinata, Hozuki Suigetsu, Hoshigake Kisame, Sakaguchi Juugo, and Kaguya Kimimaro. The winter home is big enough for all of them. Actually the house looks more like a Winter 'Mansion'. Three stories with over fifteen rooms, they always lose count, and the place is always watched over by the Uchiha family servants even though there will be none once these guys arrive.

There would be more people coming besides just these nine high scholars or college students but the people here are those who either want to escape their families to spend an easier holiday, they have nothing else better to do, or they don't have some kind of distraction. Neji and Hinata definitely needed to escape their parents and the rest pretty much don't have anything else better to do. Unlike some people. Uzumaki Minato and Uzumaki Kushina decided to choose the Hawaiian islands to spend a warmer holiday while their children decide to keep to tradition and go to the Winter Home, despite the cold weather, Konan is near her due date so she and her husband, Pein, need to stay near a hospital, Gaara would be here if he wasn't in jail for nearly murdering someone during a 'Peace' strike against the government, and Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna, Sasuke's uncles, would be here but they unfortunately have company work to handle, just like Sasuke's parents and his brother.

Once Naruto had stopped jumping up and down and some people have already started unpacking, Kyuubi decides to ignore them and unexpectedly huge his arm around his little brother's neck. "Since there are no parents here, you know what that means, right?"

Getting his message, Naruto's face heated up like bonfire. "Get your head out of the gutter!" he yells, sounding completely embarrassed. Kyuubi just grins at how amusing the kid is when he gets self-conscious.

"I'm sorry. Who has their mind in the gutter? I didn't even hinted the word 'sex', did I?"

"You were thinking it!"

For those who are denser than Naruto, those two Uzumaki brothers are also lovers. Technically everyone here is either homosexual or incestuous. Sasori and Deidara are a couple, Suigetsu and Kisame, Juugo and Kimimaro are engage, and Hinata and Neji as also dating as well. The Hyuuga couple may be the only straight couple here at the moment but they're close cousins so they fall under incest. As for being homosexual incestuous, that would be Naruto and Kyuubi, along with Sasuke and Itachi, who is not there…yet.

"Can you two stop sex talking and get your damn bags?"

Hearing that voice, both Uzumaki brothers tensed up and shivered like snow was just thrown down their bare backs. Now they know that Gaara is not here, the one who is usually the scariest of them all, Sasuke will take his place and will be known as the deadly Ice Prince on this holiday. Both brothers turn around and it was like meeting the very center of a hail storm. If hearing that boy's voice made a frozen chill run down their spines, imagine what it was like actually seeing the eyes of the person who said those words. It not only made them regret turning around to look, but it also made them regret being within five feet of each other. After half of his life was scared away, Naruto pushes Kyuubi as far away as he can from himself.

"Ah, hehehe," Naruto laughs, scratching the back of his head in his nervousness. "Coming, Sasuke! Coming." As the blonde rushes over to get his luggage, Sasuke rolls his eyes and flips his bag over his shoulder. All he has is one and it's a duffle bag. For this two week vacation, all he really needs is clothes, some personal hygiene materials, and some other things that might be useful. The house will provide the rest of his necessaries. He didn't bring like two bags worth of stuff that's filled with things that probably won't even be used at all on this trip. The two worst people of the entire group were Deidara and Naruto who actually have three bags each of useless junk. Now Sasuke is not a stereotyping person but when it comes to them, two words would always pop into his head.

Dumb blondes.

"Come on, Sasuke! Come out and play with us!" Naruto whines at the young Uchiha.

Sasuke doesn't turn his head away from the window he's sitting next to as he comments, "You sound like a child, usuratonkachi." He took that as an insult and glares at the back of his childhood friend.

After unpacking the minivan, they went to their rooms. They could actually go into any room they want since it was after all a big house for themselves to enjoy but when Sasuke just marched into his, Naruto followed him, then Kyuubi, and soon the whole gang. If more than two are going in direction of the house, then they're all going. They settled in and the first one done unpacking was – of course – Sasuke and by the time that everyone else was done, they all found the young Uchiha sitting on a couch he must have moved to the window that has a good view of the driveway leading to this house. He's been there for a good hour.

"You might as well leave him," Suigetsu says, cutting in. "He's not going to do anything until his brother gets here." One good thing about Suigetsu that gives Sasuke enough reason to keep him as a friend is he knows when to leave him alone. Naruto doesn't.

"But I don't want him to be lonely," the young blonde tells the silver hair man. "He'll get bored."

"Naruto, look at this room. With the kind of person Sasuke is, he's not going to get bored."

Indeed. The room all three of them are in right now is a mixture of a library and a living room. Only one wall is a whole bunch of shelves full of books but there is a flat screen TV in the center of it, there are individual and double couches all around, there's a fireplace with a roaring fire to keep the room warm, along with the help of ten other fireplaces in the house, and there's a small mini bar in the corner. If Sasuke does get bored, he would just read or watch TV and if he's thirsty, the mini bar is well stocked up. But knowing him, he'll probably just sit in that couch and stare out the window all day.

"Besides, you really think that Sasuke wants to play in the snow after not getting a wink of sleep last night? That guy took over nightshift driving on the way here, remember? He's probably exhausted. Better let him rest."

Naruto eyes the guy before him suspiciously for a moment before he asks, "Why do you sound so caring?"

"Because if you don't leave that guy alone, you're going to be mutilated and I would have to clean up the mess in here since we don't have servants."

Sasuke already has a vein pulsing on his head as he's telepathically yelling at them, 'Will you both just shut fuck up and leave me the hell alone?'

After finally getting those two to leave him alone, which consisted of Sasuke not only putting his best Uchiha glare on but also scaring the life out of those two before throwing them out into the snow since they want to go out so badly, he was able to remain in his spot by the window that has a good view of the drive way. And he also has a good view of his friends playing in the snow after discovering two nearly frozen high school teenagers.

The first thing the group decides to do is to start off with a snow fight – with Kyuubi starting it, of course. He threw one at Naruto since he knows he would definitely respond by throwing one himself. Then that snowball hit Neji and it had begun. The group basically divided itself up with ukes against semes. Naruto literally cried out, 'Ukes UNITE!' and Kyuubi was screaming, 'Assemble, semes!' Deidara and Suigetsu really got into it with Naruto as Hinata and Kimimaro were dragged into the forest to hide in the safety of the trees. Being as strong as they are and trying to be as quick as they can, Kyuubi and Kisame quickly made a fortress around a nearby ditch and the others started to form snowballs. Neji was pissed off with Naruto for catching him off guard, Sasori was sort of bored, and Juugo was just making them because he knows that if he doesn't, he'll have an angry Uzumaki and an angry Hyuuga to worry about. Then Sasori got into it when Deidara caught him in the face. He wanted revenge, bad. As Hinata, Kimimaro, and Juugo were the only ones who made the ammo for their teams, the rest were going crazy with throwing snowballs; some with specific targets. It was sort of unfair with four throwers against three but the ukes were quick and they had the shelter of the trees to protect them. The semes are strong so it was a battle between strength and swiftness. Which is probably why the semes were the ones who were mostly getting smacked and every uke who got hit would feel their bruises in the morning. Because they were getting caught up in the fact that they might be willing, none of the ukes realized that something was different on how they were being attacked. Naruto became the first and only one to notice that before it was too late.

"Gotcha!"

Kyuubi jumped out of nowhere from Naruto's side and pounced on his little brother to the ground. That was when the throwing ceased and while Naruto is throwing curses and Kyuubi's laughing and grinning like a fox as they roll in the snow for a bit, Kisame came up from behind Suigetsu and grabbed a hold of him while Deidara turned around just in time to have Sasori pinned him to a tree. Hinata and Kimimaro were left to witness that before turning to the fort to see that Neji and Juugo were used as a distraction. Juugo was waving and Neji looked upset as he was glaring at Naruto while the blonde was being pinned to the ground by his brother.

"Kyuubi! Get the-" and he wasn't able to finish because Kyuubi silenced him with his lips.

"Better luck next time, little brother." Then he kissed him again and this time, Naruto didn't object in kissing the guy back. His kisses always set Naruto's heart ablaze and for his stomach to feel like someone is bursting fireworks in his gut.

Sasori didn't say a word for he was already biting on Deidara's neck hungrily. The long hair blonde tried to tell him to get off but when his lover bit on his sweet spot, he could not ignore the feeling it had aroused. Nor could he stop the gasps and moans that he automatically created. Suigetsu and Kisame were already making out without any struggle or resistance. Nothing like a good snowball fight to arouse pleasure.

But that was when they sensed death threatening them.

All three couples stopped when they felt like something is stabbing them with ice pistols. They just suddenly felt like someone is pressing a cold blade to their necks and they didn't have to look far to see where it was coming from. They looked back at the house at a window and sure enough, Sasuke is looking at them. No, not looking. Glaring a guarantee ticket to hell if they don't back away from each other. Suigetsu and Kisame didn't have to think twice or share a word with each other before backing away since someone looks fricken scary. Deidara and Naruto however had to push their lovers away and ducked for cover. By the time Kyuubi and Sasori got up from the snow, their little ukes are already hiding behind a tree, quivering with teary frightened eyes. As soon as Sasuke saw that, he went back to patrolling the driveway and releasing his friends from his promise of excruciating pain and suffering.

"U-uhhm…." Hinata let out, getting the other's attention. "Ma-maybe we should…make snowmen…instead?" None of them couldn't agree more. Nothing like a good snowmen building to keep things occupied and it would keep each other busy from trying to get romantic since it soon turned into a snow sculpturing contest. Right?

Wrong.

Juugo found two pebbles him and Kimimaro could use as eyes for their snowman and when Kimimaro took one pebble from his hand, his own hand lingered on Juugo's for a moment. He looked up at his fiancé and both of them had a moment of their eyes locking and just feeling perfectly at ease with one another. How close Juugo was to his soon husband-to-be comforted the silver hair man from the cold and it made the moment all the more relaxing. Not a word was said and they were already leaning in towards one another for just a small kiss. There was just one problem with that.

What interrupted them was someone clearing their throat rather loudly. They turned to look and it was Naruto. He looked like he just saw his worst nightmare when they saw him and all he had to do was point to one direction and they would know why.

"He's glaring at us, isn't he?" Juugo asks. Naruto quickly nods his head.

Then he goes between them and starts pulling them far apart. "Better to move ten feet away or we're all going to get killed." By the time he succeeded in that, he dared to look back at the house and he sees Sasuke already looking back at the drive way. Sasori got irritated.

"Just because Itachi isn't here to give him attention doesn't mean that he can tell us we can't," he stated.

Deidara tells him, "Be quiet, Danna. Itachi hasn't been with Sasuke for three months, un. Give the guy a break. I would have gone insane if you were gone that long, un. Wouldn't you?" Sure, attack him right where it'll hurt. Deidara knows that unless Sasori doesn't have sex with him or touch him in any way for long periods of time, he's going to lose it. For Sasuke, he's just cranky since the closest contact he's had with Itachi was a phone call.

"But the guy has to lighten up," Suigetsu adds. "He can't expect us to go all celibacy like just because he's not getting any."

"You want to die that badly?" Kisame asks, unable to believe what his lover just said. At least he knows that when the younger Uchiha is cranky, he's just as bad as his brother. He should know. He was traumatized by the smaller Uchiha when he was beating the shark-looking-man's car after Kisame pissed him off about being lonely when Itachi was gone for a weekend. He shall never forget the time he was almost killed after Sasuke was done with his car and was coming after him with a metal bat.

Neji turns to Kyuubi and asks, "Can't you just call Itachi and ask where he is?" He just wants this whole nonsense to end already.

Kyuubi was already on it. He had his cell phone in his hand and was dialing the number. It didn't take him too long for him to lower the phone with bad news. "Didn't pick up. Either his phone is dead or he forgot to turn it back on after he got off the plane." Yeah, like anyone is going to believe either of those possibilities. The only other explanation left is he is deliberately leaft his phone off, but why? Especially when there are some people in this group who are really nervous about the Uchiha chibi's well being and their own.

That's the end of part 1! Part 2 will be coming out soon. I don't know how soon but I promise you that there will be Uchihacest in it. No doubt about it.

So tell me how it was? Good? Bad? Let me know! Till next time!
