Letters From Nii-San
- Like Water -
Sasuke pulled his hand away from Naruto's grip and used it to angle his chin up. He thrust his other hand under his black shirt and touched and caressed the tight muscles of his stomach.
Confused blue eyes asked a silent question of the black ones above. However, noticing the hazy lust in Sasuke's darkened eyes, they widened, pupils blowing wide open in excitement. He made to turn away to try and avoid the intense stare but Sasuke's hold on his chin was too tight to do so.
He felt the dark haired man lower his body over his and responded to his warmth, subconsciously arching up into him wanting more. When Sasuke moved away, he even wrapped his arms around his pale neck, not wanting the warm intimacy to end.
Consequently, he could just feel the Uchiha's smugness radiating off of him.
He loosened his grip on him and opened his mouth to protest but could not bring himself to say much of anything when he felt Sasuke's hot lips kissing the skin just below his left ear. Threading his fingers through his best friend's long hair, Naruto let himself enjoy the foreign, pleasant sensations running through his body as Sasuke mouthed hot, open-mouthed kisses all across his neck and into his jaw line. Simultaneously, the hand under his shirt began moving more vigorously. Sasuke's talented fingers groped his trim waist, dragged blunt tips over his hipbones and teased his sensitive ribs.
Between the painfully pleasurably sensations of Sasuke biting his neck and touching him, Naruto felt impossibly good. He could not stop himself from moaning as Sasuke abused the spots on his neck and waist that the Uchiha had already memorized. His brain was so foggy that the only thing he could think of was how he never wanted Sasuke to stop what he was doing. He threw his hands over Sasuke's bare shoulders, pulling him even closer, not wanting an inch of air between them. He felt an unbearable heat form in his body as he arched his neck at the sensation of a particularly hard bite delivered to his shoulder. Naruto finally got into the mood and moved his hands lower on Sasuke's back and groped the hard muscles he found. Nervously, he wrapped his legs around Sasuke's waist and guided his head closer to the most erotic parts on his neck before roving his hands all over the pale body above him.
Strangely enough, it was the relatively innocent and sweet kiss placed upon his lips that made Naruto realize the weight of what they were doing. He almost choked at the way he referred to them as 'we' in his head. He couldn't let them get too far; nobody had even confessed anything yet! He wanted Sasuke, but would not let them use each other like this if it was just for release.
He pulled Sasuke up by his hair, trying to ignore how ridiculously sexy his hair looked when disheveled and pushed him away. Panting, he sat up and awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck, shivering hyper-sensitively when he felt how moist it was with Sasuke's saliva.
He shifted his legs.
"Sasuke, what are you doing?"
"..." Sasuke did not meet Naruto's eyes. He could not bare to see the look of shock or betrayal upon the face of the person that he wanted so badly. He could almost hear his brother's baritone voice asking him if he would care that much if he only wanted him physically.
Sasuke made to get up off the bed and wiped the back of his hand across his mouth. He was sure that he had royally fucked things up with the blonde. What was he even thinking? "I'm sorry Naruto, I was out of line. I was not thinking straight. As always, the shower is all yours, just lock up when you leave because I just remembered I have to give Kakashi this report and talk with Tsunade about-"
"YEAH RIGHT! Stupid Sasuke, you can't just ignore something like that! What do you want?"
"I'm not ignoring it. I already said it was a mist-"
"Fuck you! That wasn't a mistake! I know what a mistake is, it's like my middle name."
"...You are right... I deliberately made a move on you, and I am sorry, Naruto. I wish it hadn't happened," he apologized. He picked a black cardigan off the floor and put it on. "What else would you like me to say?" he asked, looking over his shoulder with unusually emotional eyes.
Naruto fisted the sheets beneath him and shook his head, trying to find the right words to say.
If there was anything in this world that he knew, it was Sasuke Uchiha. Sasuke was only impulsive when he was too obsessed with something to see how it badly it affected other people and Naruto could sing in ecstasy because he felt so strongly about him. However, Naruto also felt like screaming because holding on to an emotionally-vulnerable Sasuke was like trying to hold onto water in his hands, difficult to begin with and ultimately impossible when that small window of time ran out and he trickled away.
If he did not say something soon, Sasuke would probably still talk with him, he was not that conceited, but they would never be as close, carefree, and happy as they were now. He felt for Sasuke. Probably more than he felt for him but he just did not want to jump into something they would regret and had no idea what to say.
He valued their friendship too much.
After all, when Sasuke was blinded by revenge and anger, Naruto remembered all too clearly, what it felt to not have his sarcastic teme by his side. He wished he was more like Itachi-san, so eloquent with his words that even his hard-headed best friend would listen. But he was not Itachi and could never speak beautifully.
What he wanted to say, was that he liked Sasuke, but wanted to slow down and understand what each other were thinking.
But he ended up screaming in his typical Naruto way.
"SASUKE, YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT TO ME AND WALK AWAY. TOUCH ME SO FUCKING, GENTLY AND THEN SAY IT'S A MISTAKE. I KNOW YOU HAVE FEELINGS FOR ME I COULD FEEL THEM AND SASUKE, IF I DIDN'T WANT YOU, I WOULD HAVE PUSHED YOU AWAY. BUT I DIDN'T BECAUSE I WANT YOU. I WON'T LET YOU RUN AWAY FROM ME AGAIN. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW I SURVIVED WITHOUT YOU BUT I CAN'T LET YOU GO THIS TIME. I JUST FUCKING CAN'T. I WON'T RUIN ALL THE THINGS I WANT WITH YOU BECAUSE OF MINDLESS SEX, BUT I WON'T LET YOU LEAVE ME."
Sasuke was sure the entirety of Konoha heard his outburst but could not focus on anything but Naruto. The blonde haired man had gotten up and moved to stand in front of Sasuke, hands clenching the dark fabric of the sweater as he breathed heavily. He was so worked up he had not even noticed the silent tears streaming down his face. Sasuke's own were full of unshed ones.
"Naruto, I didn't even realize that I could hurt you that much, I"
"Well you can! And you did..." he said pouting. "But this isn't about that! I didn't want you to stop, t-t-touching me, I just wasn't sure what was going on. If you even liked me or just wanted sex, or w-what..."
"I really like you Naruto and I don't ever want to stop touching you," he said, licking the tears away, "You're my other half, energetic, insolent, generous, compassionate, social, loyal, adorable, genuine, passionate, you're my better half, Naruto."
"Took you long enough to realize it teme!" he mumbled, forgetting how frustrated he was. Sasuke had proceeded to lick and kiss different parts of his face and Naruto's hands shook in his sweater as Sasuke licked the lobe of his right ear and it was all he could do to not throw his head back and ask for more.
"Well, YOU never exactly said anything either!" said Sasuke
"How am I supposed to walk up to the most eligible bachelor in the whole fucking country, who just happens to be my childhood best friend and ask him if after he's done checking himself out, he would like to go on a date?" he asked, pulling away to look at Sasuke's face.
He was frowning.
"I do not check myself out, Naruto."
On the inside, Sasuke could not have been happier. Nothing had changed, after the kissing, they still acted and talked the same way, in a way that he never wanted to change.
"Cha, because only the most timid of the un-confident walk around with half their bodies on display."
"..."
"HA! You were checking yourself out."
"Maybe, but that means that you were checking me out checking myself out," he said wrapping his arms around the blonde's hips and pulling him even closer.
"Huh?" he asked, with a level of eloquence even Itachi would be envious of.
Sasuke stroked Naruto's hair and thought seriously, "...Naruto say 'Amaterasu' and 'Tsukuyomi'."
"Why?"
"Just do it."
"Fine, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi!"
"Thank heavens! Now, we can be together."
"Sasuke, you arrogant jerk, why do I have to say the name of your sharingan jutsus, just to be with you?"
"Ask Itachi."
"Sasuke, every couple of months or so, there comes a day when I'll be listening to you, nodding and stuff and then realize that I have not a clue as to what you are saying. This is one of those days."
"Read chapter 280," he said letting go of his friend to hand him his brother's notebook.
Mumbling something about the beautiful ones being the craziest, he flipped to entry two hundred and eighty, sat down and read it, complexion starting off pink and ending up fire engine red as he read the part about 'passionate make-up sex.'
Still blushing, Naruto asked, "Eh Sasuke, how did your brother know I was going to read this entry?"
Sasuke whipped around and went over to read over Naruto's shoulder. He just glimpsed that the entry was in fact started with, 'Dear Naruto-kun,' before it quickly changed into a different one.
. . .
Dear Naruto-kun and Otouto,
Have fun, you two horny teens.
You can thank your lucky stars later, for having a person as amazing as I in your lives.
Completely Seriously,
Itachi
