Replacing Sai

A/N: Yo, yo, yo! It's been awhile! Sorry I haven't updated in forever, but I've been SO busy! I've been in Japan for 6 months! So that's my excuse for not updating… Plus, it's a little embarrassing to say, but my English skill has been rapidly decreasing… Anyways.

I think I'm going to keep Sasuke as the uke, and Sai as the seme. I didn't like it like that at first, myself, but now I'm getting used to the idea of it. I hope this is fun to read for everyone! Thanks much!

Chapter 4: Getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar won't be something to brag about

Uchiha Sasuke felt heat sweeping from his head to toes. Dizziness filled his head, sweat began to form in the palms of his hands. He had this strange sensation running through his entire body, unable to move. It was almost the feeling of getting caught doing something terrible, where you would feel incredibly guilty and words wouldn't form in your mouth. Of course, Sasuke never had these sensations due to his lack of guilt whenever he did something bad. The time he got caught stealing from a shop and blamed it on Naruto was a good example. He didn't feel an ounce of shame at the time. It was so normal, an Uchiha couldn't stain his name, but Naruto seemed like he could.

"Y-you… Pervert!" Sasuke managed to spit out, still feeling the elevator walls sway in his vision, blurring in and out of focus. He couldn't look at Sai, he couldn't dare. How utterly embarrassing! Sasuke wanted to punch himself in the face if it were possible. Then again, he wouldn't want to harm his beautiful face… So maybe not. But he did want to mentally kick himself in the face.

"Me? A pervert?" Sai scoffed, "You're the one who came onto me."

"I - I did not! I don't recall anything of that sort!" Flustered cheeks. High pitched voice. Oh god, what was he turning into?

Sai looked directly into Sasuke's eyes. He squinted a little, eyebrows furrowed. "You did, and you can't even deny it properly. Do you know how annoying it was for me to take care of you? You are such a bad drunk."

Sasuke swallowed what seemed to be the most enormous lump in his throat. He really couldn't deny it. He was a terrible drunk who could've done practically anything with a little bit of vodka in his system. Fuck, fuck, fuck it all. Sasuke had to win this battle. He gritted his perfect teeth and glared right back into Sai's dark eyes. Man, this Sai was gorgeous even when he was angry.

"But you can't deny that you liked it, yourself." Sasuke clenched his teeth tighter, "Per-vert. Pervert. Pervert." He repeated, getting closer to Sai's face now.

"How could someone not enjoy it? You were touching my fucking dick. It goes for any guy." Sai also leaned in closer. What an impossible pair they were. Sasuke really couldn't stand Sai, although Sai didn't mind Sasuke's company at all. In fact, maybe he enjoyed it a little too much. But what made Sai really pissed off was Sasuke's complete denial, although clearly, he enjoyed Sai's company as well. Maybe a little more than he needed to, too.

"Shut up! You disgust me."

Sai merely laughed. "You're telling me that I'm disgusting after you're the one who does the disgusting things to me?"

Sasuke was silent. He backed away slowly, eventually standing in the furthest corner away from Sai. Awkwardly, the reached the first floor in complete silence. Sasuke had lost, and he refused to look at Sai, flustered and well, incredibly embarrassed. Oh, how he hated the taller doppelganger. Hate could obviously be mistaken for love but what Sasuke felt for Sai was purely physical. Or so he thought. Sai's looks could easily be fallen for; he was tall, slim but still had a nice build. His face was handsome, bearing what seemed to be only the good features from his parents. No one could deny that he had look as those equal to a god's. Of course, Sasuke also had appearances close to Sai's, but one could clearly tell the different feeling they would get from them. Sasuke with his always pissed off, unapproachable aura, and Sai with such a blank feeling. Something about Sai, Sasuke couldn't put his finger on. He was so unexplainable. Although perhaps Sai knew much about Sasuke and his past, Sasuke knew nothing of Sai, and no one else did, for that fact.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Sasuke grabbed his bag and rushed out of the cramped space. Stupid, stupid Sai! Sai merely looked at the obviously frustrated Sasuke and let out a soft sigh. Sai approached Sasuke leisurely and slung his arm around the shorter male and pulled him towards the parking lot.

Sasuke pushed Sai's arm off of his shoulder angrily. "What the hell are you doing?"

"I'll give you a ride to the camp," Sai raised a brow, "Unless you'd like to take the bus?"

Sasuke crossed his arms. He really didn't wanted to take public transportation up to the mountain, considering he would probably have to walk quite a far ways, and it was just such a pain to take a bus. He stood there pondering for a moment until he decided it would be better just to accept Sai's kind proposal. Wait, but then he would be stuck with Sai for over an hour. Sasuke couldn't determine if that was a good or bad thing. And obviously that couldn't be good if Sasuke had some sort of feelings for the taller doppelganger, whether it be true or platonic.

"I'll accept your offer." Sasuke looked Sai up and down, "But don't try anything with me."

Sai stifled a laughter and pushed open the door for Sasuke.

"Of course."

.

Sai's sleek black Lexus ES 350 pulled up to the campsite, with Sasuke's arms crossed and sitting as far away from Sai as physically possible, as if to prove a point. As they could see from the parking spot, the other boys were already at the camp, setting up their tents and starting fires. All the others noticed Sai's car and waved excitedly. Well, at least Naruto did. Neji, who was trying desperately to hold up the failing tent merely glanced up, frustration pasted all over his pale face. Holding a lighter in a dangerous position, Inuzuka Kiba looked up and waved, lighter still gripped in his fingers. He yelped as the small flame twisted and bent to touch his skin. He dropped the lighter and waved his hand more excitedly than Naruto did, but for different reasons however. Akimichi Chouji was sitting on an upright log beside the collapsing tent digging his fingers through a bag of Calbee chips, unable to pry his attention away from the delicious taste. Nara Shikamaru was laying on the hill a little ways away, hands behind his head and looking up at the clouds. Typical. The final member, Aburame Shino was nowhere in sight. Probably in the forest looking for insects. And Rock Lee? Let's just say he wasn't invited due to certain, well, personality issues.

Sasuke scoffed at the ridiculous bunch and uncrossed his arms.

"So likely of them - they haven't gotten anything done."

"I'm sure they're doing their best." Sai chuckled, turning off the ignition and opening the car door. Sasuke rolled his eyes and sighed audibly. Since they were unable to get anything set up, it would have to be the functional members of the group to set everything up. Which was obvious who had to do all of the work.

Sai jogged up to all of them, saying his hello's and asking if Neji needed any help. Neji nodded and wiped the sweat off of his face with his free hand. Sai proceeded to try and help to set up the navy tent. Sasuke pulled his bags out of the trunk and looked around at his surroundings. It was quite remote, far from the city and not a popular site to hike or travel. The last time he had been out camping was when he went on that school ensoku when he was in the third year of middle school. It was boring, troublesome (he was starting to sound a bit like that lazy Shikamaru) and such a waste of his time, Sasuke thought. Squealing girls tried to stay with him all night, and teachers had to pry the girls' grimy little fingers off of him for everyone to have some calm. Not like he didn't enjoy the attention, but he would prefer everyone not to make such a fuss about 'who gets to sleep beside Sasuke', especially when the girls weren't even allowed to set foot into the boys' buildings. It just made Sasuke get into trouble, as the teachers thought that the girls couldn't be that ignited if he didn't provoke them. And, well, to be honest, he didn't. He was just a ladies' man and that was that.

Great, he thought as he dragged his bags on the dirt floor, more work to do. Setting up tents, making food, being dirty… What was all the hype about camping, anyways? He couldn't find anything good about sleeping in a dingy tent on a remote mountain with a bunch of boys. Now, if some girls decided to come up, that would be his thing. Wait, why couldn't he invite some girls? Naruto had never said that this had to be an all boy's trip. Sasuke dropped his bags lamely and pulled out his cell phone, looking in his contacts for Haruno Sakura. Maybe this could ignite some feuds if he invited Sakura and her girls.

Sasuke put his phone to his ear.

"Hello?" A girl's voice on the other line called out.

"Sakura, it's Sasuke. Listen, are you busy today?"

"Never for you! What were you thinking of?"

"Want to come camping with me?" Sasuke looked at his nails amusedly.

"Yeah, that sounds great. Where's this at?" Sakura definitely sounded too excited. Sasuke grimaced. This would be one hell of a night.

"You know that one time in junior high school when we went on that final ensoku before graduating?"

"Oh yes! I definitely remember that day. That stupid bitch Yamanaka Ino tried to get in my way-"

"Okay, sounds great. Come as soon as you can. Bye." Sasuke hung up and put his phone in his pocket, picking up his bags again. He continued to drag them along the ground, slowly smiling to himself. He had almost forgotten about his plan to ruin his doppelganger, due to the past issues that had been haunting his mind constantly. Something about Sai really pissed him off, but also fuelled his excitement. Sai gave him something to do, something to think of, something to plot against. If anything, Sasuke should have thanked Sai for giving him such priceless entertainment.

Naruto stood up from his spot, where he was assisting Kiba kindle a fire. Exactly how hard was it to make a fire with a lighter? Apparently too hard for the idiot pair. But by the time Sasuke reached the campsite, the fire had been made and one of the tents almost finished. Naruto grinned contentedly at Sasuke, saluting him foolishly.

"Yo! Good fire, eh?" He pointed at the animated flames behind him, where Kiba was leaning in a bit too closely.

"Yeah, real great." Sasuke replied sarcastically, dropping his bags lazily on the ground. "I've got a tent in my luggage. Can you get out and set it up?" He sat himself on a small stump and folded his arms.

"Leave it to me! There's nothing I can't do!" Naruto beamed his trademark grin, grabbing the tent's bag and slinging it over his shoulder excitedly. He got to work right away beside Neji and Sai, who were now finished setting up the tent and were in the process of admiring their work. Sai spotted Sasuke sitting alone beside the fire and sauntered up to him, slapping his worn out hands together. He looked at the Uchiha quizzically, as if to ask why he wasn't helping anyone set up. And strangely enough, Sasuke got the telepathic message.

"I hate doing all this shit." He replied plainly without bothering to look up at tall figure hovering over him.

Silence. Sai merely shrugged. He looked around to see Naruto buried underneath Sasuke's tent pathetically, trying to drag himself out. What a bunch, he couldn't help but to think as he walked back to help Naruto as he obviously struggled. The hot sun blared down on the group as they worked away, sweating bullets. It was a hot afternoon, but weather forecasts said it would be incredibly cold night. Perfect day to go camping. Sasuke couldn't help but to be cynical of this all. Then again, he was pretty pessimistic about everything…

Chouji looked at Sai as he helped Naruto set up the tent.

"You have pretty decent muscles, eh?" He spoke out for the first time, but shoving another handful of chips into his mouth right away. He was finished his second chip bag and was now continuing onto his third. Sai glanced up and looked at his arms. He was wearing another simple T-shirt, not a V-neck this time, but a pale grey open necked shirt. His sexy collarbones were still out for a show.

"You think so?" He grinned and continued to work again.

Chouji chomped away at his snacks and continued to watch the two boys set up the tent.

"You think mine are coming along? I've been working out." Chouji asked seriously, asking with his mouth full, which was a manner no-no that was taught to everyone at a young age. Sai looked at Chouji's big build and managed a to paste a small, nervous grin on his face.

"Well, you might want to ease up on the junk food." Sai stated blandly, pausing in his work. "Besides, I think that's our food supply you're eating up there."

Chouji grimaced and looked at his bag of chips. More chip bags and other food items were strewn around him.

"I can't help it, I'm just always so hungry." He proceeded to open another bag of cookies and hungrily shoving his hands in.

Sai nodded and began to work again. He wiped the sweat off of his brow and placed the final pole into its' socket. Sai clapped his hands together and sighed. Two tents were finished. How many would they need? Three people would fit in one tent. They needed one more tent. Again, he sighed and realized he would have to set up one final tent. This was really turning into all work and no play.

.

Gradually, everyone finished their individual work and gathered around the fire to prepare for supper. The summer sun was going down incredibly slowly. It was already 6pm but the sun was still up and shining excitedly, as if it were waiting for a spectacular show. And well, it would happen. Soon.

Everyone looked up as they saw a white van pull up into the pebbly road. As soon as everyone could recognize the drivers, there were looks of confusing and enthusiasm. Girls. That's right - girls. The opposite sex was an incredible force that could make any guy practically become their servants. "Hold this bag, pay this, get this, get that for me, please?" Phrases all too often heard by men and boys alike. Starting from young ages, boys learned about the existence of girls as cooties, germy little creatures but as they grew older they would be absolutely fascinated by the female population, slowly at first, then peaking at the higher ages in the 10s and early 20s. Which happened to be the ages of this bunch. Which could not lead to anything good when there was no parental supervision or sane minds. All the girls would think, boys boys boys! Boys vice versa. But what if someone who was not supposed to think about boys, did?

"Hey guys! I brought everyone!" A bubbly pink haired girl popped out of the driver's seat, waving and smiling almost idiotically. Naruto and Sakura somehow went together quite nicely. True to her words, everyone began to climb out of the van. Ino, Hinata and Tenten. The ratio of boys to girls were uneven, however they had to manage. There were boys uninterested in girls, anyways. Chouji was a good example. If there was a girl covered in chips, chocolate and other foods dangerous to your health… Hell, Chouji would be all over that. Shikamaru seemed to think girls were troublesome and Shino, well, was interested insects of the female variety but not the human kind. They were quite the bunch.

Sasuke stood up from his little stump and walked up to Sakura.

"Glad you could make it." He smirked, touching her arm ever so lightly. Sakura bit her rosy lips and smiled seductively.

"Anything for you, obviously."

They were interrupted by an already intoxicated Yamanaka, who pushed past them, holding a Bacardi Breezers alcoholic beverage. An easy drink, for lightweights who liked the fruity drinks. The thought of even juice-like alcoholic beverages made Sasuke want to vomit. He could smell the familiar scent of alcohol waft into his nostrils. A chain reaction occurred as Sasuke could feel his non existent breakfast climb up his throat. He hurried away, covering his mouth and nose. It was just too soon to start drinking after that night. It really did bring back terrible memories.

Everyone gathered around the girls, mingling and talking about things no one really cared about, opening up beer cans and downing them hastily. All this hard work had to have a reward! Meanwhile, Sasuke sat on his usual stump and bit his lower lip in frustration. He couldn't drink again, could he? He was getting used to this smell, and it would be nice if he weren't the only one who was out of his mind. Even Chouji was chugging down the coolers as if they were just kiddy juice boxes. Audible laughter echoed throughout the isolated campsite. The sky turned into a pale red, the sun now dropping more rapidly than before. Soon it would be night time, even without Sasuke's dinner.

His plans were ruined. He thought he and Sakura would have a bit of "alone time" together, and maybe to Sai's surprise, get caught together. But instead, Sakura was drinking it up with the boys, playing stupid games and not paying any attention to the sober, moody Sasuke.

Naruto jumped up from his spot, pointing at Kiba. Sasuke could see his lips dance to say something to the dog lover, but he couldn't hear over the redundance of voices, screaming, laughing, chatting animatedly. Even Sai was showing a wide grin on his face, chuckling at a joke Ino seemed to have shared with everyone.

Feeling frustrated, Sasuke took one last glance at the bunch and crossed his arms. He sighed and pushed himself off of the stump, muttering about stupid drunks or something rather. Sasuke opened his tent and hopped inside, careful not to get dirt into the expensive tent. From experience, Sasuke knew that cleaning tents were impossibly difficult. Heck, he never did it but always watched a friend try to brush out the miniscule rocks out of the tent. They looked miniscule but they felt like boulders under Sasuke's legs. He hated the feeling of dirt in his fingers or any form of - ugh, debris.

He brushed his feet off carefully and leaped into his air mattress, feeling depressed that his plan had slipped from his fingers. Things were just not going his way lately. He hated being replaced. Sasuke used to be the centre of the party. Without him, no girls would want to hang out and without him, people would never get together to hang out like this. It felt like shit that he was now, to put it simply, being ignored. Uchiha Sasuke, being ignored. He never had it coming.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the thought and shook his head. No, that wasn't possible. Sasuke was the most important member of the gang, he couldn't have been ignored, forgotten, whatever. They were probably just too wasted out of their minds to remember their own names. He pulled the navy blanket over his head and rolled up into a ball. Sasuke hated camping. He really did.

.

"Fuck!" Sasuke awoke with a considerable weight on his chest. He tried to put his arms into action by pushing that thing off of his body, but no avail. His wrists were pinned down to the air mattress by some unidentified force. God, he hated these situations. This never happened to him before but… He decided he hated it right then and there.

"Good evening," He heard a familiar voice. Sasuke shut his eyes tightly and opened them, a blurry figure on top of his body.

"What the-" He could now see a grey shirt. Strangely, he felt acquainted to this shirt. Now, a head. Raven black hair and a face he took little liking to. "Sai-!"

Sai placed a hand over Sasuke's mouth securely. He motioned with his index finger to his mouth and shh'd him. The Uchiha's eyes widened in worry. What the fuck was this Sai up to? Sai leaned into Sasuke's ear and nibbled on it lightly, running his free hand up Sasuke's shirt.

"Be quiet! You don't want everyone to wake up." Sai breathed into Sasuke's ear. Sasuke shivered at the hot breath, closing his eyes. This can't be happening. This was a dream. A really fucked up nightmare.

Sai slowly removed his hand from Sasuke's mouth, almost cautiously, and looked straight into Sasuke's eyes. Sasuke could see his own reflection in Sai's hazy eyes. Sai was more than a little intoxicated. The shorter male shut his eyes firmly and bit his lip, almost afraid of what would happen next. Sai let out a low chuckle. He let his fingers dance up to Sasuke's forehead, gently brushing a stray hair out off of the porcelain skin. He leaned in calmly to let his lips touch Sasuke's bare skin, then his flushed cheeks and finally to what Sasuke had obviously been waiting for. Sasuke's cheeks were heating up and unknowingly to himself, he was waiting for Sai's lips to touch his own as gently as they made contact with his forehead and cheeks.

Sai looked at Sasuke's awaiting face, and smiled slightly, pulling in to kiss Sasuke's anticipating lips. He let his own lips touch Sasuke's benevolently, and to his surprise, Sasuke tilted his face upwards to meet Sai's lips impatiently. Sai leaned backwards, a strange look on his face as they both stared at each other in some form of wonder. The taller doppelganger's eyes closed gradually as he leaned in again to lock lips with Sasuke again. This time, he gave him a peck just on his bottom lip, quickly. He leaned in again to give him a deeper kiss, using both of his hands to touch Sasuke's fragile face. Sasuke leaned into the kiss as much as his body possibly let him. He freed his hands and wrapped them securely around Sai's neck, kissing him back as hard as he possibly could manage to. Kissing, swapping spit, smooching, whatever you call it. It was happening wilfully in this very tent. Sai's mouth opened a little wider, allowing their muscles to intermingle. It really did shock him that Sasuke was so - accepting to doing this. Not that he didn't enjoy it but, something seemed different.

Sasuke arched his back in pleasure, his chest touching Sai's shyly. He grabbed ahold of Sai's grey shirt and pulled it back, prying it off of his body. Sai took his shirt and tossed it off, only pausing momentarily to get back to what they were doing previously. Now this would be called swapping spit. Literally.

Sasuke ran his fingers over Sai's toned but slim body. He let his fingers wildly rake through his 'enemy's' hair, softly moaning against Sai's mouth. Sai snagged Sasuke's shirt and pulled it over Sasuke's head, now stopping the literal spit swapping. They looked at each other almost curiously, wondering why they were even doing this. Sai knew Sasuke hated him. It was obvious, the way he treated the taller teen. But something about Sai just seemed irresistible to Sasuke. He just couldn't stop. Their eyes locked on each other, as if to converse with just a look. Sai slowly moved downwards, clutching onto Sasuke's thin hips with body hands. He let his tongue gradually meet Sasuke's nonexistent chest, eventually making contact with a small, pink nub. His tongue rolled around the manly, not feminine at all, body part. Sasuke bit his lip as he held his moan back, closing his eyes tightly.

They didn't exchange any words, afraid of what would happen if they let out any audible sounds. People would come running, and that wasn't exactly what they were looking forward to. Sasuke covered his mouth with his own hand and snuck a look down at Sai. Sai let his mouth leave little kisses on Sasuke's stomach, down to the hem of his pants. They paused for a moment, looking at each other, as if to say, "Do you really want to go through with this?"

Sasuke looked away as Sai slowly, almost to Sasuke's torture, pulled down the denim to reveal his classic grey Calvin Klein's. Sai put his hand over the forming bulge and let his index finger pull back the elastic waistband.

Sai froze as he heard small shuffles outside of the tent. They both looked at each other frantically, not daring to make a single movement. Voices whispered and statuesque shadows loomed over the tent door, threatening to zip open the small door. The zipper of the door made a small noise as they froze in spot, unable to move.
