.:I Want To Get In Your Genes:.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
AN: So I've started to actually read Naruto for once, but I kind of started in chapter 485…Kisame's head, what the hell are you doing?
Did anyone else get the joke with the last chapter's title? I thought it was funny at first, but now that I look at it, it seems stupid.
Chapter Six
A Thing of the Past and Future
To Naruto's relief, Sasuke had been joking about the wedding planner. In fact, there had been no wedding at all. With Hatake Kakashi and Hyuuga Neji as witnesses, Naruto and Sasuke were scanned into the world wide database as a married couple. There were no wedding bells, no champagne, and no doves being released as they ran to the getaway car. In fact, no one even smiled through out the marriage process. It was strictly business and systematical, and Naruto felt like he wanted to cry. This was not how he had once pictured his personal future.
He was supposed to meet a cute girl, either at a party or by some coincidence in the street, and they would date for as long as they saw fit before Naruto proposed to her. It would have been a simple proposal, on one knee with her parents there to see. They would have an outdoor wedding, perhaps in a park somewhere. Their honeymoon would be in Europe or the Bahamas or America, where ever she wanted it. Within two years, they would have a baby, their own house, and maybe a dog or cat. They might have had another kid, maybe not, and would grow old together.
But this, being swept off to another time period, standing in front of a screen, next to a man…not even saying 'I do'…this was heart wrenching to Naruto.
"Congratulations, you two," Kakashi said with a smirk. "You are now Mr. Sasuke and Naruto Uchiha." He patted his boss on the shoulder.
Neji didn't move or even say anything. It seemed as though he wasn't even paying attention, standing there emotionlessly with his hands in his pockets.
"That's it…?" Naruto mentally cursed at how shaky his voice sounded.
"That it," Kakashi confirmed.
Naruto exhaled and glanced at Sasuke who was making a point of not looking at him at all. "Then…I'm going upstairs." He announced. When he didn't receive a response from Sasuke, he touched his arm gently. "Okay?"
"Yes, fine." Sasuke said curtly, turning his back to Naruto.
Naruto felt like he was just slapped in the face. Why was the bastard being so cold to him now? Was it because of what he had said before coming downstairs to get married?
"Get up, Naruto." Sasuke prodded him gently.
It had taken quite a bit of arguing and debating, but Naruto had finally agreed to sleep in the same bed as Sasuke (he didn't count sleeping there the first night because he had fallen asleep after the blowjob and hadn't known Sasuke slept next to him). At first Naruto had insisted on staying in one of the guestrooms, but then he remembered how comfortable Sasuke's bed was and began to insist that Sasuke be the one to stay in a guestroom while Naruto kept the cozy bed.
In the end, Sasuke convinced Naruto to just shut up and go to sleep and they lay silently on their designated sides of the bed.
"Naruto, come one." Sasuke sighed. He was currently trapped under the blond who had his arms wrapped around Sasuke's torso and using the corporate president like a body pillow. Sasuke looked at the sleeping face of the man and bit his lip. His future self had been right; Naruto was a beautiful man. Not just in looks, but he had a beautiful mind. He had a healthy curiosity and he was trustworthy. And best of all, he was going to be the greatest father for their kids. He could tell by the way Naruto was willing to do anything for their unborn child. "I think…" Sasuke whispered. "I've already fallen in love with you."
Naruto stirred against him and Sasuke stiffened when the new angle of his head caused the man's breath to fan out over his sides, tickling him slightly. He patted Naruto's bare shoulders and then pushed at his head. "Naruto, come on. We're getting married today so get up."
The other man sat up, suddenly awake, and blushed at the fact that he'd been laying on Sasuke. "Sh-shut u, teme! I'm only marrying you for the baby!" Naruto cried in surprise and fled from the bed, running to the bathroom. He cussed when his first two attempts at opening the door failed. He glanced over his shoulder to see Sasuke getting out of bed slowly, and he faced forward and tried again. Finally, it worked this time and he ran inside the bathroom.
Damn him and his confounded habit of cuddling up to objects (in this case it's a person) in the bed! Naruto placed his hands over his face and slid down against the door. He was getting married today…
"Naruto? Are you okay?" Sasuke asked quietly through the door.
"Go the fuck away, teme!" Naruto yelled back. "Jeezus, I'm going to be stuck with you for the rest of my life, you might as well give me some space when I'm in the bathroom!" He hadn't meant for that to come out, but he was embarrassed and frustrated and he couldn't deal with a doting Sasuke at the moment.
He was met with silence and Naruto sighed in aggravation. He looked at the toilet and tried to remember how Sasuke told him it worked when it came to flushing.
Naruto stepped off the platform at the stop of the stairs and went inside the bedroom, seeing that the bed had been made. He looked around a bit and sighed. "I guess now I don't have a valid argument to not share a bed with him." He muttered and began pacing around the room. He slid his fingers down the touch pad for the bathroom door and it opened, but he didn't go inside. Sliding a hand over the fire place mantel, he noticed a blue circle in the middle of the wall right above the mantel. He poked it and a screen suddenly appeared on the empty wall space about the fire place.
"So he does have a TV…" Naruto muttered. For the entire three days he had been in Sasuke's house, he had yet to explore it. He has gone from Sasuke's room, to the foyer, to some other kind of room that he had first shown up in. His thoughts dispersed when he realized that some kind of movie was playing on the screen.
"Yes, and you lay in the stink of your own soiled sheets, soaked with corruption, sex-" A young man that Naruto could easily confuse as Sasuke's cousin said, his expression twisting with his words.
"Stop it!" An older man dressed like a woman, with dark brown hair pulled up in a large bun on the back of his head, gasped. "You speak your words and they cut me. Please say no more, sweet Hamlet."
Naruto's eyes widened at the name. This was Hamlet? Shakespeare's work had survived all this time and Hamlet had been made into a movie. Naruto smiled and sat on the bed, watching the two actors speak on the screen, feeling a sudden nostalgia. He always did like William Shakespeare's work, though this version of it was a bit unorthodox. However, Naruto had to admit that the young man playing Hamlet was excellent.
Sasuke came inside the bedroom a few minutes later and stopped in his tracks. "Why are you watching Prince of Denmark?"
Naruto looked at the raven-haired man and gaped. "Is that what you guys called Hamlet these days?"
Sasuke walked over to the bed and crawled on to it, sitting with his back against the headboard. "No, we call it Hamlet. But this is Prince of Denmark, a bastardized version of Hamlet made into a TV drama. It airs on Tuesdays." He stretched out his back and cracked his neck.
Naruto turned to look at him and bit his lip. "Um…" he said quietly, turning back around and staring into the empty black pit of the fire place. "I'm sorry about what I said this morning. When we woke up, I mean." He looked up at the ceiling and inhaled deeply. "I didn't mean any of it. If I truly was destined to marry a man…" Finally, he got the courage to turn and look at the expressionless Uchiha. "I'm glad that it was you."
He crawled across the bed and sat on his legs next Sasuke's knees. "So please stop pouting, because it's unattractive for you. I'm your husband, and we're going to have a baby. And, technically, we're on our honeymoon now, so you need to cheer up. This should be your favorite part." He looked down and blushed, losing his cool. "Not that…I know what to do, but if you take it slow with me…and don't get to pushy…I can learn and maybe we can…"
"Calm down, dobe, you're going to give yourself a heart attack." Sasuke said with a smirk, earning a glare in return. "And do you mean by honeymoon? What are you talking about and why exactly should it be my favorite part?"
Naruto gaped at the Uchiha. "You're kidding. Honeymoons aren't part of the wedding tradition anymore?"
Sasuke shrugged. "I guess not, but then again, Naruto, we didn't have a wedding. We only got married." He apologized when Naruto gave him a somber look. "Sorry. What is a honeymoon anyway?"
Sighing, Naruto scooted closer to his husband. "Well, after a wedding – or after two people get married, in our case – they go on a trip. Well, they don't have to go on a trip, I guess. They can stay home. And they pretty much have a whole month to themselves. It's supposed to be when things are the sweetest." When he received a blank stare, Naruto tried to simplify it to something that Sasuke would want to hear. "It's the time when they can freely have sex without being disturbed by work or family or anything else of that sort."
As predicted, Uchiha Sasuke smirked. But it faded just as quickly as it came and Sasuke sighed. "Sounds like your time was pretty easy."
Naruto looked around the room a bit before focusing back on Sasuke. "That's it?"
"Hm?" Sasuke raised an elegant eyebrow.
"Sasuke, I just told you what a honeymoon was."
"Yes, you did. You didn't think I would just take advantage of that, though, did you? I understand that you don't like men, Naruto, so you don't have to worry about me doing anything with you." Sasuke closed his eyes, but opened them immediately when there was a heavy weight applied to his lap.
Naruto stared deeply into surprised black eyes and smirked deviously. "Kiss me, Uchiha."
Sasuke hesitated a moment before consenting, leaning forward and capturing Naruto's lips in a gentle kiss. Naruto applied more pressure, so Sasuke deepened it all the more, lacing his fingers through soft blond hair and angling his head. He was suddenly shoved back against the headboard, moaning as Naruto took charge of the kiss. He welcomed the tongue that probed his mouth, wrestling his own tongue with it. Naruto bit down on his and he grunted in annoyance. And as quickly as this wonderful kiss began, it ended with Naruto suddenly scooting back and then lying on the bed.
"We'll leave off there, for now. And little by little," Naruto panted a little and grinned at Sasuke. "I might get the hang of it and do more, you know, husband things."
"Husband things…" Sasuke repeated, slightly out of breath himself.
"Sex, teme."
"I understood the first time, thanks."
Naruto chuckled at how Sasuke sounded almost embarrassed. He lay there, staring at the canopy that covered the bed, and sighed contently. "Hey Sasuke," he muttered and waited for the Uchiha to grunt in reply. "About Jiraiya…"
"How is he relevant to anything?"
"I swear that he was my guardian."
"I never said that I didn't believe you."
Naruto sat up and puffed out his cheeks. "But you don't, do you?"
Sasuke glanced at Naruto and snorted at his expression. "What are you, a kid?
"I'm being serious, Sasuke!" Naruto smacked the Uchiha's shin, receiving a glare. "He took care of me up until high school, and then he said that he was going on a trip, so he passed me over to someone else. I never saw him since, and no one knew where he went. He vanished."
Sasuke shrugged. "Maybe he committed suicide. Ow! Stop hitting me."
"Stop being a jerk! That man we saw in the restaurant was the same Jiraiya from my childhood. He looks the exact same, but with longer hair, and he had those weird lines on his face."
"It's probably just a coincidence."
"My guardian Jiraiya was a porn writer too! But his works were…heterosexual."
"No man in this day and age wants to read about sex with women."
"What's that thing your company studies? Cryogenics?" Sasuke nodded in confirmation and Naruto continued. "Well, you guys are just rebuilding that kind of technology now, right? But it was available back in my time. What if the Jiraiya you know is my Jiraiya, too? He came here using cryogenics!"
Sasuke sat up straight and glared at Naruto. "Damn it, Naruto, for your own good, shut up." He leaned forward and pressed a finger to his own lips. "Keep quiet."
Blue eyes widened. "He is, isn't he? And you've known all along!"
"Yes, I've known all along. He came through my company, after all. He was the only subject to survive being frozen for a thousand years." Sasuke looked at Naruto and realized that he wasn't going to get off easily with just that. "My company was actually started by one of Jiraiya's friends, a man named Orochimaru. He had an idea for what the future would hold. From him, it was passed on to Orochimaru's right hand man, Kabuto. It passed through many different hands over the centuries, being kept a secret from the public by the government, which is how it survived all the wars.
"It went underground for a long time, but then it was revived by a man named Uchiha Madara. Then, later, it was offered to my father, but he didn't want anything to do with it. My brother, Itachi, did, though. He was the one who awakened Jiraiya and registered him as a citizen and got him started in the new society. It was a few years after that…that my brother lost it and he put my mother and father in some busted cryogenic chambers, and then himself. They died due to some miscalculations and, well, I got the company."
Naruto let this new information settle, surprised that he wasn't deterred by any of it. Because it was Sasuke, and this was Sasuke's world, everything he had just said seemed almost normal. But something bothered Naruto and he shook his head. "Sasuke, if you want a kid to carry on your name and this company, shouldn't you have gotten someone who could actually apply some kind of….guidance to your line of business? I mean, you better pray that our kid gets your smarts, because I was a C average student. And I don't know shit about cryogenics or DNA."
"But you did major in Ecology in college." Sasuke said quickly, staring at Naruto with a determined look.
"How do you know that…?" Naruto asked slowly.
"You actually think I didn't do a background check on you? Uzumaki Naruto, graduated from Konoha Community College with high marks in Ecology and Journalism. Practically polar opposites, but they were both something that you enjoyed. I could use someone with your knowledge, Naruto. Ecology has been pushed back due to technology these days. The closest you'll get to an animal is in a virtual reality game. They're out there, but they're existence is close to none in the average person's mind." Sasuke smirked. "You can help the future a great deal. You are…my future."
Naruto fisted the sheets and pulled at them harshly. "Fuck," he whispered, gritting his teeth.
"Don't move so much," Sasuke fussed, feeling his own body tense.
"Sasuke, it hurts." The blond whimpered, the stinging sensation seeming to spread throughout his entire body. "Fuck! Ow!" His body bucked, making the process all the more painful. "Sorry!"
"Hold him down," Iruka said calmly, and both Kakashi and Sasuke did as the man ordered. Sasuke pressed down on the back of Naruto's thighs with all his weight while Kakashi did the same to his upper back.
"We're almost done, Naruto. Please hold on a little longer." Sasuke looked at the Iruka who was deep in concentrations with the prod he was pressing deeper into Naruto's flesh, goggles over his eyes so he could see where he was going inside.
"You're doing very well, Naruto." Iruka said soothingly. "Most men your age, and even older, are screaming like little girls when they get new identification chips."
Naruto let out a breathy laugh, but it was quickly overruled by a wince. "Ngh…"
"This is worse for him," Iruka muttered to Sasuke. "Because his muscles are much thicker than the average man these days. I can' just stick it in like normal."
Sasuke looked down at the back of Naruto's head sympathetically.
"Got it," Iruka said triumphantly. "Naruto, if you thought that was bad, you might want to brace yourself. I'm now going to put the chip into your spine."
Naruto buried his face in the pillow. He wasn't quite sure how that was going to work as he pictured the human spine. Were they putting the chip actually inside the spine or… "OW OHMIGOD!" Naruto cried out at what felt like someone slamming a brick into his lower back that was already covered in needles. The last thing Naruto remembered was Iruka saying that they were successful and Naruto was officially a citizen of the year thirty-twelve.
"Sasuke?" Naruto muttered, his eyes opening to see the dim light of the circular light on the wall next to the bed.
"I'm here. Don't move," he reminded Naruto quickly. "You have to stay on your stomach for a day or so. Here, have some tea." He placed a straw to Naruto's lips and the blond took a long sip of the beverage, moaning when literally it tasted like rose petals.
"That's good…" Naruto muttered, looking at his husband with a dazed look. "I'm in the future." That wasn't what he meant to say, but he felt a little…loopy.
Sasuke suppressed a smile, knowing full well what Naruto meant. "Yeah, you are. Welcome to the future."
"Thank you," Naruto smiled goofily.
"Iruka gave you some pretty heavy medication. You're going to be out of it for a while." Sasuke explained, stroking Naruto's cheek. He swallowed and pulled his hand away. "You do realize that, now that you have that chip in you, there's no going back to your own time. At least not for a long time."
Naruto frowned. "Uchiha-san, I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm your wife now and I intend to stay by your side to make you the happiest man alive." He blinked a few times before giggling. "Husband. I meant husband. Ahhh, well I guess I just established our roles in this relationship, huh?" He giggled some more.
Sasuke smirked and answered his cell phone when it began to ring. "Hello?"
"You sound happy…" Haruno Sakura said quietly from the other end.
Sasuke placed a hand over the giggling Naruto's mouth to quiet him. "Sakura, how are you doing? The results of the egg's progress will be here in three days, so if you can come in on Thursday, we can go to the lab together and-"
Sakura cut him off quickly. "Sasuke, I've decided that I don't want to carry your and Naruto's baby."
…uh...so now you all know what Jiraiya is doing in the future. Orochimaru was all "home dawg, I have something I need you to test out." And Jiraiya's all "yeah, snakey man, you're my bro so I'll do whatever you want." And that's exactly how it went down.
And Naruto is now officially (and illegally) a member of the futuristic society! Who would've guessed that Iruka had an underground license in medicine...
Well, it's six in the morning, which means that it's bed time for me.
Will fix mistakes later!
