"Thanks for letting me come along," Naruto's voice broke the thoughftul silence that had come over the clearing as they two men worked silently to get it ready for a night. Sasuke looked up from where he had been setting up the fire, and gave the blonde a smile"It's nothing, really. I don't like traveling alone." There was another reason for accepting the blonde's request, but he wouldn't tell anyone else. He had known from the time he saw Naruto all those years ago that there was something about the boy that he just wanted. He was pulled to the other male like an apple to the earth. Maybe, just maybe this youth could be someone that Sasuke could spend his life with, even if the curse couldnt be broken.Naruto flashed Sasuke a brillant smile as he set out blankets and dried food. " It's better when you have someone yeah?"He turned away, searching nearby for edible plants, humming quietly to himself. He was begining to remember back to that day when he had first seen Sasuke, and had fought with him. Even then he had realized that there was something about the man, that just made Naruto want to be close to him.

A sort of stew had been set over the fire to cook, and the two males were sitting off in their own thoughts. It wasn't long, however, before Naruto was up and pacing. He just couldn't sit still unless there was a good reason for it, and at the moment he saw nothing that would make him sitting still worth anything.Sasuke sat there for a while, watching the blonde with amusement as he paced; Though he also appreciated the flexing of tanned muscles, and the expressions that flashed across the scarred face. He laughed aloud as the other flopped down with an audible sigh. "The point?" The raven asked, trying to keep from smiling at the look he recieved."There wasn't one," Naruto replied, pulling a small leatherbound book out of his pack. He read a few more pages before tossing it back-even his favorite book couldnt interest him."How about we find an activity to do then?" Sasuke asked.

Naruto nodded, not moving from his stretched out postion of half on his back, half on his side."Yes, we should, but what could we do in a small clearing like this?" He had a mostly innocent mind, at least when he was thinking of something to do and had blocked out everything else. "Well there are stories and books, and quite a few types of learning." The blonde sat up,"Oh, so you have some kind of lesson in mind?" The raven nodded, " I could help you with your fighting, or cooking or perhaps,"he smirked wryly,"i could help you with your bedding" At that comment Naruto turned, a challenging look on his face."do you find that my bedding is unacceptable?" Sasuke almost laughed,"I wouldn't know i've never bedded you." Naruto gave a "hmph" and turned away, a good-natured look of anger on his face."So i take that as an offer to see and perfect my little kitsune?" The blonde had barely opened his mouth when he found himself flat on his back, the raven poised above him."I'll take that look as a yes" Naruto reached up to flick the darker male's forehead, but found his hand caught"Now, to test how well you kiss" An indignent protest was his reply, but he didnt let Naruto speak, as he pressed his lips against those of his companion."Not bad," he whispered, before running his tongue along the other's mouth, asking for entrance, which was quickly granted. They shed their shirts quickly, finding the night air suddenly much to hot, as Sasuke moved down to suck on the tanned neck."mmmm, S'uke!" The mentioned person smirked, undoing the laces of the tight black pants.

"Tsk tsk, Naruto! To think master had trained you better!" The voice rang across the small clearing, startling the two males. Naruto looked up at Sasuke, eyes wide with fear-he knew that husky voice."K-k-kabuto!" He scooted out from under the Raven and stood slowly, brain functioning just enough to pick up his silver blade from beside his pack."What do you mean'Master trained me better'?" Sasuke looked between the two men, confused. How did Naruto know this man? "I had a run in with him at an inn a while back" Naruto told Sasuke as he stepped around the raven and glared at the silver haired man. Sasuke wondered over the man's words and his sudden appearence, as Naruto wondered what role, if any this man played in the past he could barely remember.

"Have you had your fun Naruto?" The husky voice of the newcommer interupted itself into the musings of the the two messy males."If so, please gather your things and come along, the master is waiting." Naruto looked at the man in surprise. Did that man seriously think that he could get him to come along calmly? "Like hell" the blonde replied stepping towards the trees."Ah, well" The silver haired man smiled, and a hissing laughter echoed through the clearing."Ah, Naruto just as cute as ever" Came the hissing voice, as cold arms wrapped around Naruto. The blonde struggled immediatly, trying to get out of the grip of whomever it was that held him, but he found his wrist grabbed, and the arm around his waist tightened. "Ah, ah ah my dear Kitsune" The voice hissed again, and Sauske looked up in surprise. The mage-king, the one who had cursed him was standing there, wrapped around HIS Naruto! "Now Sasuke, im glad to see you're still looking well. Your curse isnt bothering now is it?" Once Sasuke found his voice, he stood up and glared at the snake-like man."Let him go!" The hissing laugh came again."Now why would i want to do that? I missed my little fox" He let one hand trail down Naruto's chest, as he leaned down sucking on the side of the tan neck. "I think you can see why?" The snake said, grinning evilly as he slid his hand into Naruto's pants. The blonde bit his lip, trying to get away from his captor. He managed to get it so he could stab the man in the thigh, his action earning him a hard smack to the face."Sasuke?" he questioned slowly,as his sight began to fade.
