We arrived home as the sun started to rise again. It was around noon, and the rain had cleared up. Though the buzz was gone, Sasuke and I were hungry enough to eat ten hippos each. I rummaged through the refridgerator as he sat there on the counter sipping water and smoking another cigarette.
"What do you want to eat, Teme?" I asked.
"I don't know, just anything but ramen, Dobe." he replied cooly.
"Mmk." I replied; I already knew that he hated ramen, so as I prepared some for myself, I made a couple of sandwiches for him and handed them to him.
"Thanks." he said with his mouth full of a bite of a turkey sandwich.
There was something about the way he ate that I never realized before; he hovered over his food, yet nibbled on it similar to a chipmunk. There would be other times, though, where he'd shovel his food down his throat; nonetheless, his eating ways were too cute to bare. I couldn't help but stare at him the entire time, until he had a concerned look on his face as he looked behind me.
"Dobe! Pay attention; your ramen's overflowing!" he exclaimed and pointed to the pot.
"Shit!" I yelled as I ran over and turned off the stove.
I had burned my hand from the water flowing to my hand; I yepled in pain and Sasuke turned to face me. His eyes showed concern, as he jumped off the counter and ran towards me. He grabbed my hand and ran it under cold water with a panicked look, then suddenly turned his attitude back into nonchalant and sat back on the counter, watching me as he started eating again. He shook his head and grinned.
"Dobe, you never cease to amaze me with your idiocy." he said arrogantly.
'You never cease to amaze me with your cuteness.' I thought to myself.
"Shut up, Teme." I replaced my thoughts with that reply.
I took my hand out of the water once the burn had cooled, and prepared my bowl of ramen. I sat next to him, eating like a child who had never eaten in years. We exchanged glances throughout the meal, and when I finished, we took care of the dishes and walked to the rather small livingroom in our two bedroom apartment. We sat on the couch, flipping through the channels, and decided on this cheesy talkshow that started off with a mother arguing with her ex-spouse about who should have custody of their child. It started to bore me, but there was nothing I could say to break the silence. We sat there for a few minutes, watching the arguement escalade.
"This is so fucking pointless; if I had a say then the host would have custody over the damn kid for being so patient." Sasuke remarked.
"Yeah, this isn't getting anywhere." I agreed with him.
We continued to sit there until I felt a head leaning on my shoulder. Sasuke had fallen asleep...on me? I sat there, pretending not to notice the light snores he exhaled out of his breath, but I had to eventually get up and use the bathroom, so I picked up the lightweighted teen and laid him down across the couch, placing a pillow under his head and draping him with his favorite comforter. He looked so snug that I wanted to cuddle him and fall asleep myself. Instead, I left to go to the bathroom and eventually fall asleep in my own, empty bed.
I heard a faint knock at my open door, and slowly opened my eyes to see my Teme there, rubbing his eyes then stretching. I looked out the window, seeing that it was pitch black outside.
"We slept through the day, didn't we?" I asked sleepily.
He nodded and replied heavily, "Yeah. Throw some clothes on and we can go get some dinner"
"Alright." I said as he closed the door behind him.
When we were ready, we left the boring apartment and went to Ichikaru's like we normally did. I only ordered one bowl of ramen this time and slowly ate it, seeing that Sasuke had done the same unintentionly. 'When am I going to be able to share my feelings towards him?' I thought to myself quietly as I took another bite. We sat there in silence, until he spoke up.
"You want to go to the hot spings to relax a little, Dobe?" he asked politely.
"Sure." I quietly answered as my cheeks started to turn rosy and looked away.
We left, arriving at the hot springs in no time; man this day was boring! We were the only one's there this time, which was nice. I was the first one in, watching the stars gleam, one by one, trying to find constellations across this vastly wide sky. Sasuke eventually joined me in this startgazing endeavor, until he ducked his head under the water to get his hair wet. To me, at least, it looked a lot better when it was slicked back and wet; it showed his beautiful complexion, and especially how it reflected into the water. He moved closer to me, where I hesitantly tensed up so I wouldn't do something stupid. I think he noticed this, but still refusing to back away; this wasn't like him at all. He glaced over at me, and looked at me with that same concern in his eyes.
"You okay?" he asked quietly.
"Yeah, I'm fine. What makes you think something's wrong?" I asked.
"Well, for one thing, you're really tense. Another thing is that lately, you've been a lot quieter. It's just bothering me that's all." he replied.
"No, it's nothing; there's just not much to talk about." I said as our eyes continued to lock.
He blushed then turned away, then looked back at me...smiling?
"Well, now there will be." he replied cooly.
"What are you talking ab----" my question was cut off by his lips on mine.
I sat there, shocked, but I didn't back away. 'Be confident!' I thought to myself. His tongue was licking my bottom lip, begging for response. I opened my mouth willingly, as his soft lips and tongue deepened the kiss. His minty breath collided with mine, as I wrapped my arms around his neck to bring him closer to me. It felt like heaven to me, as we continued. He ran his hands down my nude torso, settling for my waist comfortingly. I didn't even remember that we were actually naked until I felt myself harden. It didn't matter, though, for I was too preoccupied fighting for dominance with my mouth against Sasuke's. When he had finally won, he pecked a few light kisses on my lips, then stopped to look at me with his onyx eyes with the reflection of the moon in them.
"I...I love you, Naruto." he finally admitted, blushing madly.
"I love you too, Sasuke." When I realized I had said those words, he locked his lips with mine again.
"What do you want to eat, Teme?" I asked.
"I don't know, just anything but ramen, Dobe." he replied cooly.
