Disclaimer: Yeah, sure. Naruto belongs to me…along with Microsoft. Believe what you will. We all know better.

Warnings: Lime! Ha! Nothing major, since clothes are still on. But I warned you!

Wait…does angst warrant a warning? Naaaahhhh!

SaKaMo: Wow o.O; I goofed. I'm writing four stories at once (though only posting this one at the moment) and they're not all based on the same time-frame. Most of the rest of them have Sasuke heading off to Sound and I wrote the first chapter quite a while before the rest and forgot I had Sasuke in Sound at all. I'll have to redo the first chapter later.

Thank you very much for pointing out the mistake to me! I don't take it as an insult at all.

Paradise: Ah, yes. Itachi…he's coming back in the next chapter.

Candicehrt: There! I continued. Do I get a cookie? Sugar or chocolate chip please!

Ichihime: On a subconscious level, he is making Sasuke jealous. Though he doesn't actually mean to. The next chapter will explain it.

Hime: Yes, Sasuke does have secrets. hehe

And for the rest of you, who reviewed, but didn't ask questions, (phew!) thank you very much! I appreciate it.

Typical Explanations:

Italics mean thought

Bold Italics mean Kyuubi thought.

Author's Notes: I started with a lime quite near the beginning…instead of the typical 'at the end' plot. Go me?

And, as previously mentioned, I made a mistake in chapter 1, saying Sasuke came back from Sound and then saying he never left at all in chapter 3. But it would ruin big parts of the plot, if Sasuke were ever with Orochimaru. So let's just stick with the idea he never did. Hehe.

Again, let me know how I'm doing so far. As always, comments and suggestions welcome. Especially the comments that point out mistakes I can correct. I'm all for constructive criticism. I need it.


Story: I Love…

Chapter 4: Your Impetutiousness

Sasuke's eye twitched. After training all day, he had taken a shower and gone down to the kitchen to get something to eat for dinner.

Had he known his cabinets would be filled with more flavors of ramen than the number of girls in his fan club, he would have just as well starved. He slammed the cabinet shut and stomped upstairs.

Once he reached his room, with the king-size bed, dark blue, silk sheets, and darkness just about everywhere one looked, he glared hard.

Last night, he had to sleep in a guest bedroom, while Naruto had managed to stretch himself to all four corner's of the Uchiha's enormous bed. He had even stained the pillow underneath him with drool, practically claming it as his own.

Infuriated, the rightful owner of the luxury bed stomped over to Naruto. The boy had finished training before him and had lain down to nap. He reached down to yell in Naruto's ear, but ended up on the bed, right next to him. It took the brooding teenager a moment to realize that Naruto had leaned forward, in his sleep, albeit, and grabbed Sasuke, yanking the pissed-off avenger down to rest next to him. Normally, Sasuke would believe a person to be awake at this point, but numerous overnight missions with Naruto had shown him that not only was the kyuubi's vessel a heavy sleeper, but a wild one, as well.

"Mmm…Sasuke." Naruto intoned, turning to the side and cuddling with his captive. Sasuke froze and gulped, as he began trying to break the hold he was in. This didn't deter the knuckle-head in the least and in fact, he leaned closer to the Uchiha, licking his neck lightly with the lap of his tongue.

Gasping in surprise, Naruto's stunned victim was unsure of his next move. Sasuke's knowledge of physical content only extended to the fangirls clinging to his arm…and of course, the accidental kiss Naruto and he had shared. But he didn't count that. Nonetheless, he couldn't deny his curiosity about these types of things, but physical relationships, or relationships of any type for that matter, were not things he was sure he could indulge in.

But at the moment, Naruto didn't seem to mind one bit. When he began nibbling on Sasuke's neck, the poor boy had to smack his hand over his mouth, in order to avoid moaning out loud.

Why in the hell am I getting hard? He shot a look at the Kyuubi's cage from the confines of his head. Are you in heat, or something?

Ha! Kyuubi's laughter roared in his mind. You wish you could blame your hormones on something as asinine as an animal's heat. No, Uchiha. I am all male. The demon preened proudly.

Morning wood, then. Sasuke reasoned. That's all it is.

Kyuubi snickered. At 1:30 in the afternoon?

Shut up!

"Ah!" Sasuke's molestation now included Naruto's leg rubbing against his hardening arousal. "N…Naruto…knock it off." Sasuke hissed. The Uchiha began to writhe underneath the ministrations his best friend was administering, panting softly.

Look brat. I can tell that Naruto actually is asleep. Just lay back and enjoy yourself. For once, indulge.

Sasuke gritted his teeth, relenting silently. Hard to do with your commentary, fox.

Mmm….right. Kyuubi's consciousness faded from the forefront of his mind.

Still squirming, Konoha's golden boy shook his head in disbelief.

I can't believe I'm letting him do this.

Head swimming and eyes glazed over with lust, Sasuke knew he wouldn't last long. It wasn't as if it didn't feel good, but he wasn't sure if they should really be doing these sorts of things. Especially since they were teammates, best friends, and rivals.

The body swap did not make it any easier. Even though he knew the moans were coming from himself, hearing them in Naruto's voice only succeeded in turning him on even more. Belatedly, Sasuke realized that if the sound of Naruto's moaning in pleasure caused this type of reaction in himself, he couldn't really be all that adverse to sexual situations with the boy. But after all that Naruto had been through, why would he want to do something like this with someone he claimed to hate so much?

Of course, it's because he really doesn't hate me as much as he outwardly says.

Only a short time away from achieving release, Sasuke suddenly glanced at the boy next to him. Although it was obvious Naruto was having a perverted dream about him, Sasuke wasn't sure that necessarily meant release for his current "right hand". Even though his friend had been the one to initiate the current situation, it didn't seem fair to Sasuke for Naruto not to be able to come as well.

But that didn't mean the Uchiha was going to jack Naruto off. Yet he couldn't imitate the pervert's method of rubbing his groin up against Naruto's leg, as said method pretty much immobilized him from doing so.

Be he is a heavy sleeper.

Sasuke grabbed the front of Naruto's shirt, lifting the boy on top of him. He wouldn't have normally considered anyone being on top of him in a sexual situation, but if perchance his friend were to wake up, he could avoid more embarrassment than was necessary.

But luck had not been on the only sane Uchiha's side the past few days. Sasuke loosened his grip and ended up being hoisted on top of the now-brunette teen. He couldn't even begin to imagine how someone who ate nothing but ramen ended up being lighter than him. If he were in his own body, he wouldn't have overcompensated when it came to weight, landing him in the position he was now.

Most of thoughts jumped ship, when he felt his teammate's erection grind against his own.

"Fuck." He hissed quietly, still coherent enough not to voice his opinions too loudly. Tantalizingly slow, Naruto began a smooth rhythm between the two of them. As the pace began to quicken, Naruto's moans and panting grew louder. This disturbed Sasuke a bit, if only because the sounds coming from his own body were arousing all on their own. The females of Konoha hadn't been lying when they happily proclaimed that Sasuke must have a sexy bedroom voice.

Said teen looked down at his own pale face, now flushed deeply, mouth opening to pant softly and then closing to bite his lip, when Sasuke ground against him harder. Sasuke buried his face in the alabaster neck. It was awkward enough hearing his own voice in such an alluring way. He wasn't sure he wanted to see his face in the throes of passion too. But he inwardly smiled. Naruto struck him as a person that probably masturbated quite a bit. But Sasuke had never bothered and with only a few wet dreams under his belt, he knew the impending orgasm would be more intense in his body than what his friend was used to. An errant though entered his head, before he could deter the specific line of thinking.

I wish he was in his own body, so I could watch his face as he comes.

Ha! I knew it! Kyuubi laughed.

Sasuke was too high on Cloud Nine to retort.

"God, Naruto!" Sasuke buried his face in dark hair in an attempt to stifle his moans. "It feels so good." He was so close.

"Sasuke! Sasuke I'm gonna come!" Naruto yelled.

That was all Sasuke needed to send him reeling over the edge in a blissfully intense orgasm.

As he came down from his high, Naruto screamed out his name, coming hard. So hard, in fact that he woke up, slowly opening his eyes. Orgasm quickly forgotten, his dropped his mouth open in shock.

It took a moment for Naruto to register what was happening. When his thought slid into place though, he yelped and scrambled backwards, falling off the bed in a haphazard manner.

"Dead-last!" Sasuke growled. Naruto tensed, waiting to be yelled at for his indiscretion. "Why are you trying to make me look bad? An Uchiha does not fall off the bed!"

Naruto blinked, as if waiting for more. He looked down at his flimsy pajama pants and the wet spot that adorned the crotch of them. He glanced at Sasuke, in his body, and noticed him in the same state.

"So you're not…I mean, I thought I was just…" Naruto began to find the floor incredibly interesting, as he mumbled "having a wet dream."

The young genius weighed his words carefully. He couldn't manage to be too upset at his clumsy teammate. Not necessarily because he knew how Naruto felt about him, but more because—at this point—he wasn't sure how he felt about Naruto. He had never really thought about it. Sure, he had risked his life for the blonde a number of times, but that type of reaction was expected when it came to a teammate. Nevertheless, he was digressing and Naruto was waiting for an answer.

"I don't expect this to occur again." He shrugged his shoulders and sighed. "But we're sixteen year old males, these things happen." He headed towards the bathroom and stopped when he ended up next to his best friend, placing a hand on the boy's shoulder. Leaning closer to Naruto with an evil smirk on his face he whispered in his ear. "Besides, as you can see, it's not as if I didn't enjoy it dead-last."

Naruto gasped in surprise and gawked at his rival. Sasuke couldn't resist running his fingers through Naruto's hair and lightly ghosting the tips of his fingers at the nape of the teen's neck, watching him shiver in delight. "And it was quite amusing to hear you scream my name."

Naruto scrunched up his new Uchiha face and glared. "I can't help it. You're really sensitive! It was so intense!"

At this, Sasuke chuckled. "Well moron, that could be because I've never indulged in self-gratification before, let alone done anything sexual with anyone."

Naruto's eyes widened and he sputtered. "No way! You mean, you've never jacked off before? You really are a frigid bastard!" He crowed, triumphantly, happy to be right for once.

The real Uchiha rolled his eyes and placed his hand back at his own side. "I'm going to take a shower." He paused at the bathroom door and turned back to the source of his current confusion. "Hey…"

Naruto turned around to face Sasuke. He smiled brightly. "Yes, Sasuke?" The expectant look on his face surprised the angsty teen. It took him a second to realize that Naruto had also called him by his name, for once. And without any derogatory comments attached to it.

Why would he be looking at me like that?

Kyuubi sighed, already knowing where this was heading. He expects you to comment more.

On?

On why exactly it is that you enjoyed the sexual activity you two engaged in.

I already explained. I'm a horny teenage boy. What else is there?

You know exactly what else there is! Don't play dumb. It only works for Naruto. Despite the fact that you're both males, there is still the possibility of a relationship developing from this. Or at least…

Kyuubi's voice was laced with sadness. He knew it didn't matter what he said.

…that is what Naruto is hoping.

Sasuke contemplated this.

Fuck.

Outwardly, he looked at his friend and spoke softly.

"Don't read too much into this, ok? You're my friend and that's it. " He quickly turned around to enter the shower and close the door behind him. He didn't need the sharingan to see Naruto's entire demeanor change. It was only a second, but in that time, Sasuke could see everything running through his head.

Sadness…at the whole situation.

Anger…at himself for believing there would be more than this.

Despair…that he would never experience the unconditional love and dedication of another.

Desperation…he just wanted someone to love him, at this point almost anyone would do.


Are you happy now, Uchiha? The fox demon snarled at the male he shared living quarters with.

What would you have me do? Force myself to love him?

No! Don't insult my intelligence! But you could at least give the relationship a try!

And when it doesn't work out, Naruto will end up with more doubt and self-loathing than before. At this, Kyuubi grew silent.

The sound of Naruto yelling made the Uchiha open the bathroom door and run back into the bedroom.

"What happened?!" Sasuke demanded.

Naruto was rolling on the floor, holding his foot. "Ah! I stubbed my toe on the dresser." He replied sheepishly.

Sasuke bristled and yelled. "Damnit, Naruto! Stop acting like an idiot! I know by now that it's all just for show."

Naruto stood up sharply to glower at Sasuke. "What would you know? You don't know anything more about me, then what I've let you learn."

Sasuke crossed his arms over his chest. "I know that you and Tsunade have regular talks."

If it was possible, Sasuke saw his own complexion pale a bit. "What?"

"That's right. After you stormed off in an over-exaggerated attempt at acting like me, Tsunade made me stay behind."

Naruto's hands fisted at his side. "And what did she say?" He questioned softly.

Sasuke. The Kyuubi spoke. Stop. I know you always feel the need to one up Naruto, but let this one slide.

No. I'll stop tap-dancing around this issue now.

"She asked you, Naruto," he said slowly, enunciating each word "if you had told me how you felt about me." He finished smugly.

Naruto had apparently been suspecting this sort of answer and had decided to try his hand at subterfuge. "You're lying. Just as you said, it's teenage hormones. I just needed release and that's what happened earlier."

"Even with my face, you're not too good at lying, idiot." Sasuke stalked slowly toward his friend. His eyes softened a bit and he reached out to place his hand lightly on the boy's cheek. "Naruto look. I can't return those kinds of feelings. Until recently, all I thought about was killing my brother. There was no room for anything else." He forced a smile and tried to lighten the mood. "Hey, you experienced first-hand how I don't even take the time to masturbate." At this, Naruto slapped his hand away.

"I don't need your sympathy, bastard! I really care about you and…" He took a deep breath and collected himself. "Forget about it. It would have been better, if you hadn't found out."

"Damnit, Naruto!" Sasuke sighed in frustration. "What do you want from me?!" He grabbed the front of the boy's shirt. "I do care for you, just not in the way you want me to and I don't want you to think that—"

Naruto interrupted him. "That what? That the stupid Kyuubi boy will spend his entire life alone? I'm not stupid, Uchiha. I know most everyone despises me, but I thought you at least, understood me a bit better…" He looked down at the floor morosely "that you didn't hate me too…"

Sasuke sighed again. "I don't hate you, moron…far from it."

Naruto mewled softly, resigned to his fate. He went over to the bed and sat back down, propping his elbows upon his knees and placing his face on his hands. "I'm tired of being alone, Sasuke. I know that I'm weak…wanting what I can never have. But I should know better by now, right? So let's just forget this ever happened, k?" Naruto smiled weakly at his crush. "You're the only one that really cares. I mean, Iruka, Tsunade, and even that pervert hermit care, but it's not the same. If you'll at least stay my best friend, I can be satisfied with that. I won't expect anything else anymore. Thank you for making it clear to me." Swiping at the wetness on his face, Naruto realized that he was crying. He furiously wiped away the tears when he felt the bed dip, indicating Sasuke was sitting next to him. "In reality, I knew better than to expect anything else." He mumbled.

He blinked in confusion when he felt Sasuke's arms wrap around him. It was a comforting gesture, but he couldn't completely relax in it.

"Naruto, don't listen to what anyone else says. Just listen to me." He took the teen's chin in his hand and forced Naruto to look him in the eyes. "You're not a monster, just because you hold the demon inside of you. You're obviously smarter than people know and I don't understand why you're hiding it, but—"

"Because if people knew that the demon boy was smart, they'd have more reason to fear me. They'd hate me more. I never would have made it into the academy, if they thought I would succeed. As it was, the villagers were quite upset that I made it to Gennin. It was only the former Hokage who pressed for the council to allow it. I'm not stupid, I'll never be Hokage. I probably won't even be allowed to be a Jounin. Not unless the council believes I can be molded as an unconditionally loyal tool and that's something I just can't do." He stopped his speech when he felt rough lips capture his own.

"Sasuke, what…"

"Naruto. I can't give you much more than this, but for one night…let me comfort you a bit." Sasuke placed a hand over Naruto's.

"But…"

"Just close your eyes and rest, moron. Have another fantastic dream of me, or something." He lay down on the bed, pulling Naruto with him.

Naruto hesitated before snuggling deeper into Sasuke's chest and wrapping his arms around the boy's waist. For the time in months, he slept without a single nightmare.


When Sasuke woke up he noticed that Naruto had already left; presumably for his date with Sakura.

Since, there was nothing but ramen in his house, Sasuke decided to go shopping. But when he got halfway to the market he spotted Sakura and Naruto.

In the alley.

In the middle of a passionate make-out session.

Naruto had managed to find a royal blue button down shirt and black slacks, in Sasuke's closet. With the shirt un-tucked and a tie hanging loosely off his neck, Sasuke had to admit that the fangirls would probably find the outfit the epitome of sexy. But right now, only Sakura was indulging in his body, as her hand began snaking up the boy's back, underneath his shirt. At the change of pace, Naruto broke the contact their lips had made and began to lightly nibble on her neck, coaxing a soft moan out of the girl.

"Mmm…Sasuke."

"Yes, Sakura?" Naruto answered, reaching up to lick the corner of her ear.

What the fuck? I would never act like this! Is Sakura that blind?

Considering her constant pursuit of you all these years, no matter how cold you were to her…I'd say yes. The fox demon snickered.

Naruto can not do that in my body.

Come now, Uchiha. Is it really the fact that he's doing that to her in your body, or the fact that he's doing that to someone other than you that riles you?

Sasuke didn't deign that question deserved answering, as he stalked over to the pair of teenager's and yanked Naruto out of Sakura's embrace.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" Sasuke sneered.

"Well, I was happily indulging in Sakura, until you came and interrupted us." He yanked his arm from Sasuke's grip and fixed his face in a bored expression. "What do you want, dumbass?"

Sasuke was about to tell him exactly who the dumbass really was, when he remembered that Sakura was still standing there. But it was a little too late, as she had already slammed her fist on the top of his head. "Naruto! What the hell do you think you're doing? Can't you tell Sasuke and I are busy?"

Sasuke glowered at her from his position on the ground, rubbing his sore head. "Yes, I can see that you're incredibly busy having him ram his tongue down your throat."

Sakura clenched her fists again and was ready to beat the crap out of, who she believed to be, Naruto, when she saw Sasuke turn around.

"Forget it, I can't be bothered by you now. It's annoying." He began to walk toward the inner regions of the town.

Sakura quickly turned around. "Sasuke, honey! Where are you going?"

Naruto didn't even turn around. He just waved a hand to her and said. "I've got a date with Ino about now. Don't want to make her wait."

"What?!" Sakura screeched. She turned to refocus her anger on Naruto. "This is all your fault! If you hadn't interrupted us, Sasuke would still be with me and not going to that Ino-pig!"

Sasuke stood up and brushed himself off. "And you don't care that he's going on a date with Ino, right after being with you?" He looked at her as if he could care less, but he still voiced his opinion.

"Well…" Sakura began kicking up dirt on the ground with her high-heeled shoes, dirtying them sufficiently, before she looked back up at her blonde teammate. "I know that Sasuke has to pick a fiancée and I'm sure that once he's dated a few girls, he'll realize that I'm the one for him."

Sasuke stared in shock. "A few?"

"Well, yeah." Sakura nodded. "I know that he has a date with Ino today and then one with Ten-ten this afternoon and I think he has one with Anko tonight." She made a face. "She's such an old hag."

"Uh…Sakura, I'm pretty sure she's only in her 20's."

"Well, whatever. Why would he date her?"

"Yes…I'd like to know that myself." He took off running down the street. "I'll see you later, Sakura."

"Bye, Naruto!" She waved to the prankster, before speaking aloud.

"Hey, he didn't even say 'believe it' once. Is he sick?"

0000000000000000000000000

Sasuke had spent hours searching around Konoha, but he couldn't find "himself" anywhere. Well, Naruto. Suddenly, though, a girl jumped into his arms and cried. "Save me!"

"What the hell? Get off me!" She had managed to topple him to the ground in her attempt to leap into his arms and he was trying unsuccessfully to push her off.

"Sasuke, help me! They're trying to rape me!" Sasuke paused when he heard his name. "What the..?"

The girl jumped off him and he took the time to study her for a bit.

She had long ebony hair that ended in the middle of her back. Pale skin that seemed to glow unnaturally under the sun; complimented with coal black eyes. Sasuke twitched his eye when the girl rubbed her breasts up against his chest. They were almost the size of his head! The girl was wearing an outfit similar to Tsunade's except the main color was black with red lining. It sunk in quickly who this girl was.

"Naruto! I'll kill you right now if you don't get my body out of your stupid perverted jutsu!"

"It was the only way I could escape! Besides, after the mob of girls was done with me, I only had the pants left on! It'd be worse, if I walked around town like that."

"Uh…weren't you supposed to be with Anko?" Sasuke was dragging the girl back to the Uchiha district. The sooner he could get her out of sight, the sooner he could make Naruto change his body back.

"Yeah, but she did this weird jutsu…and next thing I know, there was a snake jacking me off."

"WHAT?!?!?! You let her touch my body?!"

"Hey, man." Naruto grinned deviously. "She's kinky. Think of what an older woman could teach you."

"I don't want to know!" They had reached Sasuke's house and he opened the door and threw the boy in. "Now, change back!"

The girl pouted. "Oh, fine! I look hotter as a girl than you, anyway!" A second later, he was the male Sasuke again. He grabbed a soda from the fridge and plopped down on the couch, exhausted from the day's event. Sasuke sat in the chair across from him and glared.

After 10 minutes of this, Naruto sighed in exasperation. "I know you want to ask me something. So what is it?"

"If you love me so much, what were you doing violating Sakura and why are you dating hordes of girls?"

Sasuke saw the evil smile that graced his own features. "Well, Sasuke. I told you. I don't want to be alone anymore. And I can certainly fill the void with all these females running around after you, can't I?"

"Do you take me for a fool, Naruto? I know you're not that shallow!"

"You're right." Naruto frowned and then headed for Sasuke's bedroom. "But it's nothing that concerns you anymore, Uchiha. Go to bed."

Sasuke grabbed Naruto's arm and twisted it behind his back, slamming Naruto against the wall, face first. "If you want sex that bad…if you want to feel loved…then…" Sasuke tried to think of what to do, but he ended up not thinking at all and just blurting the first thing that came to mind. "Then do it with me!"

Naruto jerked his head around to fix Sasuke with a look of surprise. "What?!"

"You heard me. I don't want you to do just anyone that opens her legs. You deserve better than that and..." Sasuke turned his gaze to the side, not wanting to look Naruto in his eyes. This was embarrassing enough.

"Let me ease your pain, Naruto. For one night, you can have me. Just as you wanted."

"But…"

Sasuke steeled himself and pushed Naruto on the bed, crawling on top of him and began to unbuckle his belt. "Don't think about it, moron. I won't let another nameless face have you. You're mine."


Naruto's things to do in the next chapter:

1) ??????

2) ???????????

3) ????????????????

Naruto can't imagine the depravity of the things that happen in the next chapter.

Woo! And that's how you end a chapter...with a cliffhanger! avoids projectiles I swear, I'll have the next chapter up tomorrow evening! Don't kill me!
