Bath
As soon as Sasuke had all four paws on the ground, he got them in motion. Being carried had been bad enough to make him believe Naruto was trying to assassinate his dignity, but through the entirety of town? Even worse! He vowed he'd escape before it could get any worse.
Unfortunately, he was only used to having two legs; the extra limbs tripped him up and he tumbled to the floor, which, he had to admit, he wasn't too far away. It hurt less when he fell.
"Man, are you a clumsy dog!" He heard Naruto laugh from somewhere behind him. And BLAM! thought Sasuke. Anther hit to my pride.
-"You're going to pay for this, dobe!"-
Glaring at the extra legs, Sasuke climbed back up and tried to walk around. This time, thankfully, he was successful. As long as he was careful about how he placed his legs he wouldn't trip again. He tottered around in a very un-Uchiha-like fashion testing out his new legs until he got the hang of it and then, finally, when he understood the way a dog was supposed to walk, Sasuke fled to the room to see if he could find some form of an escape route. Sadly, there were none he could get through without thumbs.
Damn.
"Ok, first thing," called Naruto, who, apparently, was talking to Sasuke, "is going to be a bath! You look like you need it!"
This news didn't please Sasuke in the least. He wasn't keen on the idea of Naruto bathing him and was quick to dash beneath the sanctuary of the blonde's bed, making sure he was in the corner farthest from Naruto so as to keep out of his reach.
"Oh, come on! It won't be that bad!" pleaded the blonde as he got on his hands and knees to look under his bed.
Sasuke sniffed at this remark, shaking his head vigorously as he did so.
-"Maybe for you it wouldn't!"-
He needed to find a way to change back to his original form before he really did become Naruto's pet! Regrets about his insolence towards Kakashi were beginning to pop up while he was squashed under that mattress, breathing in dust bunnies with every shallow breath. Suddenly, there was a sharp pull on Sasuke's hind legs and he was dragged backwards from under the bed.
"Got'cha!"
Frantic at not being able to get a grip on anything, Sasuke scrabbled his claws around on the ground, marking the floor up as he was pulled. By the time his head, last to emerge, was pulled into the light of the room, he was willing to do anything to keep from getting a bath and, in a last-ditch attempt, displayed a wonderful show of slinky-ism, throwing himself at one of the legs to the bed and sinking his teeth in while his body was stretched like taffy by Naruto.
"Hey! That's not fair!" pouted Naruto as he continued pulling on Sasuke.
The Uchiha would've smirked if dogs could, but the ends of his lips did curl upwards as he clamped down harder on the wooden post of the bed as if his life depended on it.
-"Fair my ass! You have thumbs!"-
After a few more seconds of the struggling with each other Sasuke's legs were dropped. The dog still held a grip on the bed in fear that Naruto was just trying to trick him into letting go.
That wasn't Naruto's plan at all!
Both of Naruto's hands made a grab at what was called the 'rump' on a dog, but, considering Sasuke still thought of himself as if he was in his human body, it felt as if Naruto was groping his ass!
The shock of it got a yelp to escape from Sasuke's throat and cost him his hold on the leg of the bed. Naruto had a handful of hair from Sasuke's rump and snatched him backwards into his lap when he let the bed go. The blonde wrapped his arms around Sasuke's chest and squeezed him up against his own in victory.
"Heh... heh heh! Thought you would get away from me...? You're dead wrong! No one can get away from me... not even Uchiha Sasuke!" Naruto worded this proudly to the dog.
The ears on top of the dog's head twitched at the mention of his name.
Naruto continued on with this, "I was the one responsible for bringing him back! He didn't look too thrilled to come back after killing his brother, but I wouldn't let him go! Once you get close to me I won't give up on you!" he smiled to himself as he gave Sasuke a squeeze in his happiness, who almost choked with the lack of air this created. "That goes for you too! I've always wanted a dog!"
Sasuke couldn't help but feel that Naruto was a true moron for telling this kind of thing to a dog, but at the same time he felt happy. The tail thumping weakly on the floor was a strong indicator, and the only one, physically at least. The wagging stopped shortly after Sasuke became aware of it.
"Well, mutt... since you're so stubborn about getting a bath..."
This set Sasuke's tail to wagging once again, thinking that Naruto would reconsider giving him a bath.
"I'll just have to take one with you!"
The tail froze in mid-wag.
-"WHAT?"- Sasuke's exclamation came out as a desperate howl. He started to thrash in Naruto's arms. There was no way he was going to take a bath with that stupid dobe, who hadn't even listened to his opinion in the first place! His paws repeatedly pushed at Naruto's chest and arms, but the blonde held on with a fierce determination to the squirming dog.
"You're... getting... a... bath..." Naruto struggled to keep his grip, holding even tighter to keep the dog in his arms "...whether you... like it... or... NOT!" and pinned the dog to the floor with his whole weight, thinking that there was no other way to calm him down.
Having nowhere to go and no way of moving, Sasuke was taken over by panic. He tried wiggling again and backing up, but found Naruto to be too heavy for him to move. Stupid ramen...Stupid carbs. You made Naruto too heavy! It sucked being weak!
Time passed slowly as Sasuke continued wriggling underneath Naruto, but with every movement he felt a little more of his energy slipping away; he was beginning to get exhausted from moving so much with such a huge weight on top of him – Naruto! Not wanting to, but finding that he had no other choice, Sasuke gave in: he relaxed his muscles and breathed heavily through his nose, putting up the proverbial white flag.
Why him? Couldn't Naruto pick another dog? Besides, if Sasuke was ugly then why would Naruto want him? In Sasuke's opinion, if you were going to get a dog you had to do it right: something pretty and intelligent (not that he wasn't, but he was feeling sort of stupid for not knowing how to get out of the mess he was in), and easy to train, and if it happened to have a pedigree that'd be a plus. Sasuke was pretty sure he wasn't a purebred puppy-dog.
Realizing that "his" dog had finally settled down, Naruto grinned to himself and sat up. He carried Sasuke the same way he had to carry him home and gently placed the tired dog in his tub, quickly turning the knobs to start the bath.
The Uchiha lay down miserably, his muscles aching already from the stress he had put on them when trying to escape from underneath Naruto. The water pooled up and around his sides, but he took no notice of it.
What did grab his attention was a completely nude Naruto happily hopping into the tub and sitting right in front of him. It was ok for a guy to see another guy naked in appropriate places like a communal locker room when everybody was changing, but putting them in a small space such as a bathtub was where Sasuke drew the line. Plus – Sasuke felt his body heat up – he had feelings for Naruto, though it was more like a playful crush, if anything, or so he told himself. This wasn't exactly the greatest thing that could've happened to him right then! Too bad he couldn't do anything about it... well, he could, but he didn't want to be pinned down while Naruto had absolutely nothing on, which was most likely to happen if he tried escaping. It might not have bothered Naruto since he thought Sasuke was just some stray, but Sasuke would go through the torture of having the blonde on him while they were both in the nude! (The thought that dogs don't wear clothing anyways didn't quite cross his mind– that's how scrambled his brain was right then.)
"Hey, mutt, come here!"
Naruto reached out for Sasuke, but the Uchiha attempted to jump up and move away; a very bad idea since the water and Sasuke's paws didn't seem to like one another very well, sending him sliding between Naruto's legs.
Sasuke's nose made a dive into Naruto's stomach followed by his chest pushing up against-
Oh god... I don't think I can handle this!
A pitiful whimper emerged from Sasuke's throat as he sat perfectly frozen in this position. If dogs could blush then Sasuke's entire face would be red! The rapid drumbeat of Sasuke's heart was now obvious to him: his poor little doggy's heart felt like it was going to explode.
"That's what you get for getting all excited like that! Let it be a lesson to you to not splash around in the tub!" Naruto grinned as he reached for the knobs to turn off the water, it being at Sasuke's shoulders while he was lying down. Naruto began tossing water on Sasuke, giggling to himself as he did since Sasuke kept shaking his head anytime water fell to his face.
When he realized his arms didn't have the proper joints to reach his face, Sasuke came to the conclusion that he had to shake his head to keep the water from slowly dripping down his face.
Sasuke allowed Naruto to cover his body with water as he wrestled with his brain for control of his eyeballs. His brain told them to look and memorize, but Sasuke's free will told them to turn away in shame and repent...well, roles might've been switched. But one half was fighting the other, that much he was sure. Naruto, drenched in water like he was, looked so-
STOP IT! FOCUS! NO PERVY THOUGHTS!
A loud sigh was heaved as Sasuke diverted his eyes away from Naruto and onto something else in the room that wasn't near as interesting. A wall tile, for instance.
Naruto's hands started rubbing against Sasuke's body slowly, but with force. The Uchiha's stomach did a back flip at the touch and he had to fight hard to keep himself under control. What would Naruto think if his dog started 'attacking' him? Sasuke pressed his head against Naruto's chest and breathed heavily through his nose.
"Does that feel good, boy?" the blonde questioned. He was delighted that his new pet was finally settling down. He continued with the long, hard strokes he made on Sasuke's back and sides as he grinned.
You're... killing me, Naruto, thought the Uchiha in embarrassment as his body continued to get hotter and hotter. He snapped his dark eyes shut, hoping that this would somehow help him in his predicament.
A sudden soapy feeling was added to the mix of Naruto's rubbing.
Good. The bath would be over once he was rinsed off! He couldn't take much more of this!
Sasuke was made to sit up and quickly turned to face opposite of Naruto now as the soapy hands ran their fingers against Sasuke's chest.
Why did he have be put through this torture? His best friend – and crush – was giving him a full body rubdown and he couldn't do anything to stop it!
It briefly occurred to him that even if he'd had the power to stop it he probably wouldn't have, anyway.
But when Naruto's hands slowly lowered to Sasuke's stomach the Uchiha visibly flinched. His stomach was obviously his weak spot; he felt himself get turned on by this and did everything in his power to keep control. Sure, it was wavering and about to snap, but Sasuke still had his self-control!
Naruto's hands didn't show any signs of stopping and as they continued to lower themselves the dog began feeling uneasy. He was concerned with the area just below his stomach, fearful that Naruto may actually go so far to bathe the spot.
I swear dobe! If you do that... I won't be able to...
Sasuke pressed his back up against Naruto's chest not wanting to be touched there by Naruto, but it was like getting stuck in a Chinese finger trap: no escape...
Damn... you... Naru... to!
FYI, Sasuke was "touched!"
I hope you enjoyed! More revising to come!
Review please!
Ja ne! Kitsune-chan
