Chapter 3: All in You

Pain and fear, the rise and the fall

I see it all in you

Sasuke smirked a bit when he felt a shaky hand take a hold of his. He looked over at the blonde beside him. The white graduation robe looked beautiful on the teen that was trembling and watching the crowd of people.

"It'll be okay, Dobe," He whispered calmingly into the other's ear. Naruto nodded slowly and met his eyes for a shy smile. They were seventeen, soon to be eighteen, legal adults. "I'll make this day special for you."

"Okay. I trust you, Sasuke," Naruto replied. The principle got to them and handed Sasuke his diploma, shaking his hand and turning him so they could take a picture together. Sasuke was sure his heated glare almost broke the camera. Then it was Naruto's turn. He smiled brightly for the camera and was wiping his sweaty hand on his robe as soon as the principle walked away. He announced their class year and a loud cheer went up. Naruto took both his and Sasuke's hats and threw them up in the air, making sure to catch them.

"You excited?" Sasuke asked softly, opening his car door for his beloved Naruto. The blonde nodded eagerly and buckled himself in.

"Where are we going?" He asked, pulling off the gown so he could move about a bit more freely. He wore a baby blue dress shirt with a black tie and black dress pants while Sasuke wore matching tie and pants but a deep velvet blood red shirt. They pulled their jackets from the back seat before Sasuke started driving.

"First, a little restaurant called Ichiraku's. Then we'll be heading over to Star for a movie, and we shall conclude our night with a few movie rents at Blockbuster video and watch movies late into the night," Sasuke said with a light smirk, looking over at his blonde. Naruto leaned across the space to kiss his cheek.

"I love Ichiraku's!" He said excitedly.

"And I love scary movies. I don't care what you say, I'm getting the scariest movies I can find," Sasuke countered. Naruto pouted but sat back and didn't argue. Sasuke always watched chick-flicks with him, he should be respectful. "I'm thinking… Chloe. That movie's supposed to be good."

"Whatever you want, Teme." Naruto smiled as they pulled up to his favorite restaurant.

Xxx Graduation xxX

Naruto smiled and snuggled further into his boyfriend's chest. Sasuke had rented one scary movie to watch by himself after Naruto fell asleep, the rest of the movies were comedy or romantic films. Megamind, Date Night, Despicable Me, Bounty Hunter, and even MacGruber were stacked on the coffee table, waiting to be watched.

"Did you have fun tonight?" Sasuke asked, rubbing the blonde's back. Naruto nodded with a smile and Sasuke chuckled. "Good, but it's not over yet," Sasuke stood and carried Naruto to their bedroom, "We still have a whole night ahead of us."

"Were you planning something, Sasuke?" Naruto asked with an obvious smile. He got his answer when he was pushed roughly against their bedroom door. Naruto answered Sasuke's passionate kiss with a fervor all his own and smiled when the older male moaned against his mouth.

Stumbling, with hands all over the place, the two finally made it onto their bed. Dress clothes went flying across the room and Naruto was never more frustrated than he was then while trying to remove their ties.

"Leave it, it's hot," Sasuke finally murmured against Naruto's ear, feeling a chill go up the smaller body's spine. He ground together hips that had only boxers to separate their needs and moaned at the delicious friction. Nails raked down his back as a hot mouth tried desperately to mark his neck. He moaned at the feel and turned heavy eyes to stare into lust-filled orbs of blue. This was it. This was just them, Sasuke and Naruto. This was the present, nothing to do with the past. There would be no rewinding here. It was only them together for the first time.

"Sasuke… I want you…" Naruto whispered, pulling Sasuke by the tie to kiss him. Sasuke chuckled and effortlessly tore of their ties. Naruto's was blocking access to his neck anyway. He smirked and pushed boxers away, tossing them across the room. Naruto smiled and engaged him in a long kiss, dragging his tongue across a perfect, soft pink lip. Sasuke opened his mouth nd let Naruto control the kiss. He focused more on settling himself between the blonde's legs and searching his drawers for the lube he bought just for this occasion.

A smirk lit his face when he found it. He held it in his hand and laid it beside Naruto's hip as he separated his mouth from his lover. "Be still," He whispered, kissing down a thin but lean chest. It was obvious that Naruto's weight training class was doing good for him. He was really muscular, he was defined, lean, more than anything. While Sasuke's ten years of Judo training left him with a rock hard body and muscles to spare.

Naruto had to admit, Sasuke did a good job of hiding his body. Beneath his clothes the other boy looked like a normal teen. Not scrawny but not really toned either. But the truth was that Sasuke had tone to spare. That meant many people, opponents and thugs, misjudged him and his strength. Naruto had to sit back and watch many a fight that could have been avoided if people would be smarter.

Normally, Naruto would make a comment about passing Sasuke up in body strength but right now all he wanted was that muscular body pushed hard up against him. He wanted to feel all of Sasuke, get swept away by those perfect lips and those strong arms. "Hurry, Sasuke," He ordered quietly, dragging his nails through silky black hair and across a sensitive scalp.

Sasuke hissed and trailed soft kisses down his blonde's body, ignoring peaked nipples to slip down farther, slipping a tongue into the small enclave the belly button provided. Normally, he would have thought that was disgusting, but Naruto had once said he thought it was cute and that his own elly button was extremely sensitive.

As if he'd been shocked by a defibulator, Naruto's body made a high arch off the bed and a loud hiss escaped him. Sasuke smirked and did it again, enjoying the reaction. Naruto was already panting and he was hard beyond all belief, Sasuke could feel it against his chest. His own problem was screaming to not be ignored but Sasuke had much practice with that. He didn't pay his own need and heed and trailed lower once more, sucking on a soft hip to leave a nice hicky. Naruto groaned and clenched Sasuke's hair. They both knew what he wanted, needed even. Sasuke swallowed down the nerves that had built in his stomach and took his lover's cock into his mouth. He sucked at the tip harshly, shivering when Naruto jerked his hair and made a keening sound.

With courage built in the place of nerves, Sasuke took more of the blonde into his mouth, opening as wide as he could and pushing in as much as he could. What couldn't fit into his mouth and down his throat was stroked with a soft hand. The smell of Naruto's lust beneath him was strange, the taste of him in his mouth was sour and Sasuke didn't particularly care for it. However, this was Naruto. Naruto was Sasuke's future. He could deal with this. He started bobbing on the hard organ, focusing his eyes on Naruto's face that was caught with passion.

"Shit, Sasuke…" Naruto moaned loudly, meeting dark eyes. He moaned more as those intense black eyes stared at him. It felt so good, he could feel his mind wilting at the pleasure. Rational thought had long since jumped out the window and sanity was a close few steps behind him. And purity? Purity was nowhere to be seen. He'd become too tainted and purity had become crushed. He caught that heated gaze and nearly came. A high pitched whine escaped him when he felt a slippery cold finger rub against his opening. He whimpered as it slipped in. It stung a bit, but Sasuke's mouth was still on him and his eyes were still staring at him intently. The sting was swept away as quickly as it'd come.

Sasuke was relieved that Naruto hadn't felt pain. He hummed around the thing in his mouth and moved his finger around a bit in that tight heat. When he thought it was ready, he tried to gently push another in. Naruto gasped and choked on the air he sucked in but he trembled and tried to calm himself. His eyes were screwed shut and his muscles were clenching everywhere. Sasuke licked his hip apologetically and ran rough fingers soothingly over a shaking thigh. Naruto calmed down enough to relax the tightness in his legs and Sasuke continued. In an out, soft and gentle, never putting more force than what was necessary.

"Sasuke… can't you just do it?" Naruto whimpered, tilting his head back as pain and pleasure crashed and created a violent tornado of heightened senses.

"no, I want to make sure you're well prepared. People have died from stupidity. I want this to be perfect for you, as little pain as possible and absolutely no harm to your body," Sasuke growled quietly. He licked along the underside of Naruto's cock and slipped in a third finger.

"but… you can't get something good without a little pain right? Something good comes out of everything bad, you told me that," Naruto said through a slight hiss. Sasuke looked at him closely. He sighed and coated himself liberally.

"My way. If I think at any moment that it's too much for you I will stop and continue preparing you, do you understand?" Naruto nodded violently and clung to Sasuke's broad shoulders. He tried not to tense when he felt the tip of Sasuke's own erection pressed against the opening that was already stretched quite a bit. He shivered slightly and pressed his face against Sasuke's shoulder.

"You want the truth? I'm scared. I'm terrified, but not of the pain I know I'm going to feel. I'm not scared of taking this last step… I'm scared… that I won't be good enough…" Naruto admitted breathlessly to distract himself as Sasuke slid in slowly. His breath hitched and caught many times but if there was one thing he prided himself on, it was his tolerance for pain. "Since two years ago… when you said it was okay… for us to date… I've been scared that you'll wake up and want something better, that I won't be good enough anymore."

Sasuke stopped, as deep as he could go, and pulled his head back to look closely at Naruto. "In all the time you've known me, all six years, have I ever been that shallow?" He asked with a mask of fake hurt. Naruto shook his head.

"I was just scared… I didn't want to be alone any more. I didn't want to lose the best thing that's ever happened to me," Naruto turned eyes that were full of tears up to Sasuke. Those tears… had nothing to do with physical pain of any sort. As Sasuke stared down at him he felt in his entire body that those tears were from years of emotional pain, an emotional pain that wouldn't so easily be washed away and forgotten. He smiled slightly and pulled out part of the way.

"It's not going to happen, dobe." He said with a quiet scoff. Naruto nodded and shouted in surprise when Sasuke shoved back in. It hadn't hurt, but it wasn't the most… comfortable feeling either. Sasuke frowned and did it again. "Fuck, where is it?" He growled. He shoved in at a different angle. Naruto gasped again. It was getting better. He was a little more used to it now. Three thrusts later and he was definitely feeling small spikes of pleasure.

"Dammit, Sasuke, just fuck me!" He shouted, making Sasuke stop and stare at him. A slow smirk covered his face once more.

"It's okay now?" He asked quietly, nuzzling Naruto's neck. The blonde nodded and embarrassedly hid his face in Sasuke's shoulder once more. Sasuke smirked wider and pulled out to push in at a slow pace, easy and controlled. Naruto gripped his hair and moaned loudly. That was all Sasuke needed to speed up.

Faster and faster, harder, deeper. Naruto was yelling things before he even realized he'd opened his mouth. And Sasuke was complying to every wish, every demand, every fucking plea. He thought he was going to throw himself out at some point, catering to the blonde's unbreakable need. He gripped Naruto's dick and stroked it in time with his thrusts, trying hard, oh so hard, to bring his lover to completion. He wanted to make sure Naruto came before he did. He wanted to make sure he'd pleased his blonde.

"Sasuke… Sas'ke…. 'Suke…." Naruto was moaning incoherently by now, moving his hips with Sasuke, trying to get more. He was so close, the edge was just there… just beyond his reach. He just need it, a bit more, to break the coil wound so tightly inside his gut.

"Na… ruto…" Sasuke moaned very loudly as Naruto's nails dug into his shoulder hard enough to draw blood. He bit the blonde's ear, almost a warning to loosen his grip, and Naruto came with a scream, his body trembling violently, clenching around Sasuke.

Sasuke was still there, still going, helping to push him farther beyond the edge of everything, pushing harder on his sensitive body. Sasuke was so close, so ready to come. He pushed a bit harder into Naruto's body and gasped when the blonde screamed his loudest yet and he arched against Sasuke, eyes rolling back and body shaking. He'd had a second, dry orgasm. Sasuke came with a cry, muffled by Naruto's neck.

"Shit… that was… amazing…" Naruto whispered when he'd had the presence of mind to think. He yawned and looked at Sasuke who lay on top of him, still panting and unable to move. Sasuke's arms felt like jelly and his body was too fatigued to do anything. Naruto smiled and stroked the back of his neck, licking his wounded shoulder apologetically.

"Why didn't we do that sooner?" Sasuke mumbled against the tanned neck of his lover and wrapped arms around his waist.

"I have absolutely no idea." Naruto giggled and played with silky, slightly sweaty hair. "What was that, at the end?"

"You had a second orgasm because your body was being too overly stimulated at once. You didn't come a second time, but your body released the endorphins that orgasm creates a second time. That's what that was," Sasuke said softly. Naruto blushed and hugged his head. "How ironic that I find it only as I'm at my limit."

"It was amazing… can we do that more often?" Naruto's face was beet red and Sasuke chuckled.

"I intend to, maybe even every night."

"I can't do that every night, Sasuke! I'll die!" Naruto said, indignantly. Sasuke chuckled and kissed him.

"Well that's too bad. I think I'm going to become a sex fiend, and you're my enabler," He whispered darkly. Naruto blushed and closed his eyes.

Xxx how very Sasuke-like xxX

"So what's this you're working on?" Naruto asked, leaning over Sasuke. His lover looked at him and chuckled. He had his laptop open and he was listening to his favorite CD. Sasuke only listened to that CD when he was working on something important.

"It's a surprise," Sasuke murmured, covering the screen. Naruto shrugged and sat down across from him. Sasuke continued writing with a concentrated, yet excited, look on his face. Sasuke never looked excited about anything except a competition and sex.

Sasuke hadn't needed to go to college, so While Naruto was enjoying his second year of hell, Sasuke was already working. He was a reporter mainly, and a Judo champion on the side. Naruto smiled and watched him. He was studying to be a pediatrician, actually. Sasuke was paying with his vast fortune for Naruto to go to the best school. He had been accepted easily, and Naruto suspected Sasuke must've put down some kind of bribe or threat to make sure he was accepted to such a nice college.

"There, all finished." Sasuke turned the laptop and Naruto read the article he'd written.

"San Francisco legalizes gay marriage? Homosexual couples flocking to churches? What is… Sasuke…" Naruto looked up at Sasuke who smirked slightly. He stood up and walked around the table, kneeling down in front of the blonde.

"Uzumaki Naruto, will you do me the honor of marrying me? Of course, we'll wait until after your schooling is finished."

"Sasuke… that's four more years…" Naruto felt the tears building up in his eyes. It had to be the single most impressive diamond and sapphire ring in the world. Sasuke… never knew when to quit.

"I don't care. Four years, eight years, twelve years, it makes no difference to me. And even if Japan doesn't recognize our marriage, at least America will. We will recognize it," Sasuke promised, holding Naruto's hand. "This isn't something I'm going to give up on. Even if you say no, I'll just-"

Naruto launched at Sasuke once more and held him tightly. Sasuke chuckled and rubbed his back. "Of course I'll marry you, stupid Sasuke," Naruto's voice was thick with tears. Sasuke slipped the ring on his hand.

"Then smile, dobe. This is supposed to be the second happiest day of your life."

"I am smiling, you just can't tell," He whispered, trying not to sob. Sasuke smiled and held him closer. In four years they could go to America to get married.

Xxx Will Sasuke and Kakashi ever meet? Will Sasuke ever get over his family's death? And why am I talking like this? Find out in the next section! xxX

Sasuke had always taken care to make sure Naruto never got hurt when everything was slower. He didn't have to look at a clock or watch to see, he could tell in the movements of the people around him. He definitely used it to his advantage.

He stopped and looked at Naruto as the blond took a very slow step. He sighed and paid close attention to the blonde to ensure he didn't acquire any new injuries. He blinked when he saw one man running towards them without any effects of slowness. He and Sasuke looked at each other as the man ran by.

His hair had been a strange grayish white and was in wild disarray. His right eye was midnight black while the left one had been red. He frowned as he took note that the lower part of the man's face was covered. He wore military clothes and had an almost panicked look in his eyes as he ran.

A loud bang brought Sasuke's attention back to Naruto in time to see his lover's body jerk and fall, blood slowly rolling out of the side of his head. Sasuke screamed and fell to his knees, taking the body in his hands.

"If you reverse time now, you'll die," Kyuubi was sneering at him from farther away, waiting to see what he'd do now.

"I don't care," Sasuke said. He closed his eyes and focused on rewinding. He coughed and covered his face as blood vessels in his eyes burst and blood started to leak from his eyes and ears and mouth. He ignored Kyuubi's voice shouting at him. There was no point in living if he couldn't live with Naruto. There was no reason to live if he didn't have Naruto. He didn't want to be nothing again.

"Look out!" He shouted, shoving Naruto out of the way and feeling the bullet hit his shoulder. He fell to the ground and Naruto started screaming for an ambulance. Sasuke felt a cold darkness creeping in his body, but he'd survived long enough to save Naruto, his head didn't explode. He'd be okay… he hoped.

Xxx sad, no? xxX

"I'm so sorry, Naruto," A voice Sasuke didn't recognize whispered softly. It was male though. He growled slightly and realized that was a bad idea. His throat felt raw.

"I just… I can't believe he had an aneurism. He seemed so healthy," Naruto whispered. His voice was cracky and thick with tears. Sasuke fought to open his eyes. Naruto was kneeling beside his bed with his head against the blankets. "Please… kami-sama… please don't take him from me…" He whispered.

There was a brunette sitting on a chair near Naruto, looking as though he'd been crying too, rubbing the blonde's back. He had a scar over his nose that was a shade lighter than the rest of his incredibly tan skin. His chocolate eyes were full of understanding and worry. He looked older… much older than Naruto. Sasuke wanted to growl some more.

"but he'll live. That's what's important," The man said.

"But Iruka, they said he might be in a coma for the rest of his life! We were going to get married and everything!" Naruto broke into a fresh new wave of sobbing.

"Na'to…" Sasuke groaned softly. Devastated blue eyes looked up at him before widening and He suddenly had a body all over him sobbing.

"SASUKE!" Naruto shouted, hanging onto him. The door opened and closed quietly.

"The doctors are starting to think Uzumaki-san is going to kill Sasuke and commit suicide," another male voice said lightly. "I take it he's awake?"

"Mm-hm," the one called Iruka said. He sounded so relieved and Sasuke relaxed. "I think… we're all really happy to see that he's okay. Naruto, you should give him room to breathe,"

"h-hai, Iruka-senpai," Naruto slid off the bed and held Sasuke's hand, squeezing it tightly. He stared at Sasuke with love and worry and affection. Sasuke looked around and saw the man he'd seen running when everything had happened, holding a tray of Styrofoam cups. "Are you okay, Sasuke?"

"Yeah… other than a migraine, I'm alright," Sasuke croaked weakly. Naruto helped him drink some water.

"The doctor said the stress of what happened caused you to have an aneurism. They said you might never wake up," Naruto sounded so sad at that. Sasuke scoffed.

"Those doctors don't know anything," He hissed, sitting up, though it caused all sorts of pain. He looked around and huffed in annoyance.

"Sasuke, this is my senpai, Umino Iruka-san, and his friend Hatake Kakashi-san," Naruto said, pointing to them. Iruka smiled at him.

"Naruto talks about you so much, I'm honored to finally get to meet the man who makes my little kohai so happy," Iruka said amiably. Sasuke nodded in greeting to him.

"Thank you for being there for Naruto," Sasuke said softly. He looked at Kakashi.

"My lover, he just returned from the war. I was so excited to see him but then Naruto gave me that call and we rushed over here to support him. We're all very glad you're okay," Iruka said. Sasuke nodded slightly and hugged Naruto.

"I… want to go home. I want to sleep," he said, just holding his little Naruto. He and Iruka left to go ask a doctor. Sasuke looked at Kakashi.

"What was happening?" He demanded. Kakashi looked at him.

"The man who shot you… was a deserter who'd lost his mind. I was trying to catch him and turn him in before I went home to Iruka… I didn't get to him in time to stop him from shooting though… I'm sorry," Kakashi said, sadly. He bowed to the Uchiha and looked to him for forgiveness.

"It's fine. As long as Naruto is okay, I don't care what happens to me."

"Is that why you rewind time so much? It happens so very often, I thought maybe you were a child who did it to get out of trouble," He admitted with a chuckle. Sasuke shook his head.

"Naruto… is a magnet for disaster. I'm always saving him somehow." Sasuke muttered quietly. He closed his eyes and waited for the okay to go home and get away from this place.
