I'm climbing elo in League so... :D

There, I told you it's a good excuse :D

Anyway, I'm glad I've got so many positive reactions to this story, it is really encouraging :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, sadly :( because it would definitely end differently if I did, of course :D but I do own Snowflake! ;D

Warnings: Hm... First of all whole chapter is in Sasuke's point of view, I like writing it this way, for some reason I find this way more fun than in third person and I hope you'll like it too! What else... Oh, I know! Perverted older brothers, boyxboy stuff, language... well you all know what to expect if you read previous chapters :D I'm a sucker for romance, so that too .

Sasuke's POV

Spring

Have I ever mentioned how much I enjoyed the rain? Guess not, but, there was something about it that was calming me down. I know plenty of people hate rain since it makes the day look grey and people got in the bad mood because of it. I'm sure most of the population that hated rain was female, simply because they can't dress the way they want to and they have to drag an umbrella which would be totally off with their styling. I mentally rolled my eyes at that thought and continued gazing through the window of our living room.

As I observed the water droplets sliding down the roof of neighbor's house and falling with a loud splash on the ground I was thinking about the dobe and Asa. I wasn't stupid. I saw that Naruto changed ever since that night in the bathroom. The thing is, he wasn't avoiding me but neither did he talk about what happened. I realized that something has changed by the way he was looking at me or should I say not looking at me. Every time I'd catch his gaze he would look away instantly even though he continued talking normally. For some reason it bothered me that the moron wouldn't say what was the problem.

I liked Naruto, yes.

But I couldn't tell him that. Not yet, at least. And don't ask me why, because it's pretty obvious. I didn't know what Naruto was feeling and I didn't want to scare him, on the other hand the whole liking thing was strange to me and it made me feel like a fucking chick. It was better this way without Naruto knowing it.

Asa's birthday is tomorrow, meaning I'll have my family down my neck for the whole day not to mention nosy neighbors that made me sick. Why Naruto invited the whole neighborhood I'll never understand, they were friends with Kiba and Hina, they were most definitely not my friends nor did I want them to become that, thank you very much.

The rain got heavier and I felt myself relax despite all those thoughts that troubled my mind. For a short while I just wanted to enjoy the sound of the rain and the sight of it. I looked to my right to see Asa still sleeping peacefully. I guess the sound of the falling rain soothed her too.

"God fucking damn it! Stupid, shitty, disgusting, horrible thing! I'm fucking soaked!"

Speaking of peacefully…

"Would you cut it already? Asa is sleeping." My voice was hushed as I was turning around on the sofa to face the blond moron that was piercing my ears with his loudness.

"Eh? I didn't see you there Teme, sorry… oh damn, I was cursing in front the girl. You should've warned me!" Naruto said taking off his shoes.

He looked like a drenched rat and it instantly brought smirk to my face, not that he'd see it since he avoided looking at my face anyway. Figures the dobe would hate rain. It made sense, since he was so hype during sunny days, I don't think I ever had so much energy within me.

"Idiot." I said nonchalantly still keeping my eyes on him. Why won't he look at me damn it?

"Shut up, Teme." He sighed and I swear there was desperation in that sigh.

"What's wrong?"

"Huh? Is the Uchiha Sasuke asking me that, for real?" He was still not looking at me but there was amusement in his tone with a tingle of despair. Seriously, what has gotten into him?

"Dobe." I didn't have a comeback to his stupid statement and so I settled for the only word that came to my mind around the blue eyed moron. I guess he realized that my question was honest, so he turned to my direction and spoke, still not looking at me.

Damn him.

"It's nothing, really. No reason to trouble yourself with my business, you have enough of your own." I noticed how he seemed exhausted. There was definitely something at work that bugged him. Stupid prideful idiot won't talk about it.

"You know, if you didn't look like a lost puppy, I might've believed you. I don't know why you keep lying to me. If it's something about your work, I can probably help you out, at least to hear you out, there's no reason to hide it from me especially since we live in the same household." My gaze was set on him and I knew how determined I sounded, maybe that was the reason he finally, finally, after days of avoiding the eye contact, looked at me.

He looked hesitant. I really had a strong urge to just walk up to him and slam his head in the wall until I beat some sense into it. This was really starting to annoy me, especially since I was most definitely not the patient type of person in any way. For some reason however, which I found unknown, I was tolerating the blond moron, who currently had a pathetic expression on his face.

"Fine. I have some problems at work. However, that is none of your business. So you can stop calling me a liar and start helping me with preparations for Asa's birthday party."

His eyes were… distressed. I knew it shouldn't have bothered me the way it did, but I wanted to do something to remove that sad look on his face. If the preparation for the party could help, well, damn, I had no other choice then. But I definitely needed to find out about that business issue.

"I'll help you, but I have no clue what I'm supposed to do though." I offered a smirk to lighten the atmosphere a bit and I was glad when he responded with a gentle smile, I knew it was honest smile because his eyes changed. They were smiling too.

"Ok, teme! Let's see… I need to go take a shower first since this rain made me look awful, in the meantime go to my room and take the box I left there, it's full of decorations."

Great!

A box full of some useless stuff we will use to decorate a house which will be full of people I couldn't give less fuck about!

Just my favorite thing!

Not.

"Hn."


"I think we should get a puppy."

I seriously considered climbing down this ladder, which he made me use to put 'happy birthday' on the curtain, and punch him in the face.

"No."

I hope he got scared of my glare and won't ever mention that again. I didn't hate the idea of a puppy; I just couldn't imagine cleaning up after it and taking care of the dobe and Asa. I flinched a bit at the thought of me taking care of the blond moron who was happily preparing the cake for tomorrow and hoped he didn't see that. This whole thing is seriously getting to me. I bet if I got laid I wouldn't even think about Naruto in that way.

But then again, he did catch me having sex and it was his name I moaned and it got quite steamy in the bathroom that night… I guess I just had to start dealing with a fact that the blond man meant something to me.

I caught a slight movement from the corner of my eye and turned to watch in amusement what the dobe was doing. He finished making the cake as far as I could see, but I was never good at cooking so who knows, maybe he had to put something else on it. But what draw my attention was the movement of his hand.

That stupid, stupid… did I say stupid? Stupid, idiot!

"Yo, Sasuke, are you ok? Teme! You're gonna fall!"

I barely had time to catch myself on the ladder in order not to kiss the floor. He was really dense.

Naruto apparently finished with the creamed mixture and put it on the cake, then the idiot had to go and dip his finger in the remaining of it in the bowl and oh so deliciously put the said finger in his mouth. His eyes were closed, apparently enjoying the taste, while he licked his finger innocently. However, my cock wouldn't really agree it was that innocent. The sight was erotic. I instantly felt desire to have him do that to my buddy down there who was desperately craving for some attention now.

And yes, I got a freaking hard on from only watching him lick his finger. I felt like such a virgin. That is why I almost fell down the ladder.

"I'm fine." I seeped through my teeth hoping my erection would go away. I didn't need this kind of a problem in the kitchen with the clearly oblivious dobe and Asa sitting in her chair watching us amusedly. Sometimes I had a feeling she was up to something or knew something was going on. Then I'd mentally slap myself for it since she was just a toddler after all.

"Well you didn't seem fine a minute ago. And thanks for the glare when all I wanted was to help… Jeez… You seem prissy today." He pouted at me moving the goddamn finger to rest on his chin, as if thinking about something. "So… I've decided! We're getting a puppy as Asa's birthday present! I'm gonna go fetch that little fellow I saw today in a pet shop! See ya later bastard!"

He smiled at me before disappearing through the door, leaving me with a raging hard on and pissed off at the thought of a pet.

They poop, damn it!


"Happy birthday dear Asa!

Happy birthday to you!"

I clapped with the rest of the crowd that gathered around our kitchen table. The cake was an art in itself. Naruto was brilliant baker and I couldn't help but feel an ounce of pride swell within me at the thought of being married to someone like him. He was an idiot at times…

Ok.

Fine.

Most of the time; but he was also a good friend to many and kind hearted person. And an extremely good cook, which I mentioned already. Every piece of food on the table was made by the dobe, and it was wonderful.

I saw my mom complimenting the blond and asking him for some cooking recipe. Asa was tucked in Itachi's arm, currently glaring at Deidara. I had to hold back a snicker at that. Asa was tugging on Itachi's hair and Deidara calmly moved her hands wrapping a protective arm over my brother, the baby girl seemed to mind being apart from Itachi's hair and took a hold of it again. At that point Itachi told Dei to stop being jealous of a toddler and Deidara glared at the baby, completely triggered, hence the return of the glare.

The dobe was currently chatting with my parents and a couple of ladies that were listening to their conversation. And I said ladies, since the male part of population occupied my living room in order to watch the football game that was currently up.

"Hey, blondie, could you teach me how to cook?" I snapped my head at the direction of the voice, it was a girl speaking, our neighbor I guessed, she was blond and I'd do her if you're wondering if she's hot. But, that's not the point. She was leaning way too much towards the dobe so he could have a nice look at her cleavage. For some reason it bothered me. And if I was being honest to myself I couldn't blame it on the fact that she was hitting on dobe instead of me.

No.

She was hitting on Naruto.

And he's mine.

"Naruto, I need your help… with something… in the kitchen." I said glaring daggers at both of them. I knew Itachi was mentally laughing but at least he was being decent enough not to mention it. "Now."

I got a weird look from the dobe but he stood up, complying with my request and apologizing to the girl who was so kind to shove her boobs into his face a second ago. Don't get me wrong, I was definitely not jealous. But the possessive side of me decided that no, she couldn't have Naruto.

"Eh? What do you want Sasuke? I was talking to Temari about some cooking recipes. She might stop by some time to teach her few things to cook." Sometimes he was being way too oblivious for my liking, like now for example. How was I supposed to tell the moron that I dislike the fact she was hitting on him without actually telling him why exactly that didn't sit well with me?

"I don't care about some blond bimbo. If you wanted to hit on some chicks you could've done that some other time, not today when it's the girl's birthday." I glared at him, to make an impression.

Smooth Uchiha.

"What?" His eyes were wide and lips forming a small 'o', I was pretty sure he would hit me.

"You heard me. Stop flirting. It's not really nice to do that in front of your future husband, since everyone here knows that we're getting married. I don't want to be an object of mockery and gossip tomorrow morning." Well done Sasuke! Nice excuse. I mentally congratulated myself for being able to come up with that in such a short notice.

"I wasn't flirting." He rolled his eyes as if I was annoying him. "She asked for help, and she's our neighbor I didn't want to refuse her because I have no reason to do th- OH MY GOD!" Suddenly his expression changed.

He was crying.

Of laughter.

What the FUCK was that?

And I felt something wet and warm on my leg… And I looked down… And I saw Snowflake looking innocently at me…

And I forgot about my possessiveness in order to glare at the stupid white Pomeranian puppy who just took a piss at me.

"You little shit!"

"Don't yell at our dog, bastard!"

I turned my attention to the guy who was glaring at me as if I did something bad here.

"Why did she choose my leg instead of yours? Couldn't you at least get some manly dog?! Look at this! What if there's a burglar in our house? How in the world is she going to scare him off? Will she pee on him?! Dobe!" But it was like talking to a wall… Naruto laughed as hard as he could, ignoring my protests for not getting us something that screamed 'I'm a man and I'm dangerous'.

I glared at the dog again before going away to change, leaving the dobe to his hysterical laugh.


It was getting pretty late, well not really, but honestly spending almost three hours with people I had no interest in made me irritated to no end, and it wasn't helping that the time seemed to pass by slower than usual. Naruto was in usual chirpy mood, talking to Itachi about something and I had to hold back the urge to barge in on their conversation and find out what they were talking about.

Asa was happily playing with Snowflake, hopefully she'd suffocate the dumb dog and it won't pee on me ever again. I mentally cringed at how Naruto would react if I said that out loud. He seemed happy with the dog as much as the baby. It didn't help Asa always took his side and I had to hold back a glare that was threatening to go her way. It might sound weird coming from me, but I really loved this girl. It was strange, that feeling I had when I was near her. I almost felt like I was her real father. I had this insanely strong urge to protect her and take care of her.

My heart was, well the dobe would say 'cold', but that was not it, it was closed off for most of my life. It wasn't that I didn't want to love someone, I would just lose my interest in a person I'd spend the night with and I never felt pleasure in being with someone I didn't like. Being the youngest in my family the attention wasn't something I lacked, since I got it from everyone, even from the people I didn't know and didn't want from, simply because I was the Uchiha so nothing could impress me about the person I would have a one-night stand because they were all the same, always complimenting me, always wanting to see me again.

And then… The first time Naruto and I met I felt a spark. It was a small one, but I've never felt it before, it thrilled me and scared me at the same time. I didn't know how to deal with it, so I acted like a jerk since that was something I was comfortable with. The worst thing was that I got to meet him far more than I thought was necessary since we were both Kiba and Hinata's best friends and the spark, which was there, seemed to intensify. I remembered the first time I kissed him. It was actually the first time I kissed someone willingly considering my first kiss was stolen by some bitch I'd rather not name. Ever since she kissed me I decided I didn't like kissing, and it was like that until I got drunk that night at Kiba's anniversary and tasted Nartuo's lips.

Damn it. I was getting all emotional over dobe. Ok, brain stop that shit. Dobe won't give in anyway, he almost did that night… but nothing happened ever since.

"Little brother." I gazed to my right to see Itachi sitting next to me on the sofa. Oh, lovely, brotherly moment. Mentally cringing at that thought I noticed that Naruto wasn't in his company. I didn't have the time to do some eye searching around the room and locate the dobe when I heard Itachi speaking again. "You should be careful, Sasuke."

Huh? I decided that mentally questioning myself wasn't going to give me the answer so I voiced my thoughts.

"What?"

"Naruto is not as dense as you think. If my intuition is correct something happened between you two. And, before you deny it or ask me if he had told me-"

"Whaaa? I wasn't going to ask you that?" Damn it dobe! Why did you tell him?!

"He didn't. And judging by your face, I'm correct." He evilly smirked. Damn that devil's spawn. How did he do that? "It's pretty obvious actually. He was looking at you way more than he should have. When you played with Asa a smile traced your face which caused him to bite his lower lip, meaning he was attracted to your smile. You know I'm a god of psychology, so as I said, don't try to deny it. I'm not going to ask you what has happened. I'm telling you as a brother that you should be careful."

I didn't understand what should I be careful of? He was so… URGH!

Pissing me off like that!

He glanced at his lover, Deidara, giving him a gentle smile then he turned to me again. "Sasuke, feelings are quite dangerous thing to play with. If you hurt the person you love, you'll end up hurting yourself."

I blinked once while I observed my brother. He seemed calm, but he had that 'I know what you did' look that bothered me. Why was he telling me this in the first place? It's not like I'm in love or anything.

"Hn."

"There's a thin line between caring for someone and loving someone. Don't be foolish, little brother." I glanced at Naruto for a second. Did I care about this man? Seeing him smiling and talking to my mom who was petting that dreadful puppy I was safe to say that yes, I cared about the blond dobe.

"Hn."

"Well, hope you had fun in bed with him, I know from experience that blonds are fiery." He winked at me changing the mood of our conversation from serious to 'let's talk about my brother's sex life'. I nearly fell off the sofa, which would probably happen if I hadn't been an Uchiha, but being one, I tried my best to keep my voice as quiet as possible and glare as hard as I could.

"Do you even know the boundaries of human intimacy? Fuck you. Asshole."

Stupid older brothers with no decency, making me almost blush at the thought of a certain dobe being in bed with me. Just fuck you Itachi and die. Prick.

Itachi laughed like a mad man drawing Asa's attention and she started crawling to him, puppy in tow.

"Hey, Dei, we should get one too!" Itachi casually added looking over his shoulder to his lover. Deidara approached him looking at the two small creatures on the floor. If you asked me I'd call it bitchy pose, but Dei pulled it off extremely well, one hand on his hip the other moving hair from his face, one leg outstretched on the side as he seemed to be deep in thoughts.

"Did you mean the baby or the dog?"

I looked at my brother who –

OH MY GOD!

No! I'm seeing things.

Most definitely, this is just a dream or my brain playing with me.

NO FUCKING WAY.

I literally wanted to throw my head back and die of laughter and I would certainly do that if the room wasn't full of people…

Oh fuck it.

I clasped my stomach and literally died of laughter. My dearest big brother was blushing with the cutest pout on his face. I bet he saw the dobe pouting and picked it up since I've never in my whole life seen my brother pout. Damn, karma was a bitch indeed. I mentally thanked Dei trying to collect myself a bit.

"Hey, what's going on here?" I didn't bother to turn around to know that Naruto joined us, I could recognize his scent without even hearing his voice anyway.

"Well, 'Tachi wants to play housewife. By the way, my love, do you know how much we'll lack in sex life if we do adopt a baby?" Deidara was always blunt like that. I liked that about him, he never beat around the bush, he was always direct and honest, I think Itachi loved him for that a lot. Of course, there were times, like now, when he wanted to crawl into rabbit's hole and disappear, but all was fair in love, right?

"I… hadn't considered that." He seemed to enjoy the firm hold Deidara had on his shoulder, it meant that he'll support his idea, no matter what, but he was also making sure that it was really what Itachi wanted.

"Speaking of sex, how often do you two do it?" Deidara looked my way then turned to Naruto, a questioning eyebrow went up accompanied with a smirk. I didn't dare look at Naruto in fear of how frightened his face might've looked. I mean, I looked frightened. Not because I didn't like the idea of it, but because of thought Naruto would kill me this evening for the question Deidara asked.

What surprised me was the fact Naruto was laughing now, he didn't seem offended at the idea Deidara suggested.

"Aren't you a bit too curious about other people sex life?" Naruto asked amusedly. There was a grin on his face and his eyes were sparkling playfully.

"I was simply asking. So?" Deidara pressured even though I didn't plan on answering that question and I assumed Naruto wouldn't do that either.

"Dei, let the kids be. They're too shy to talk about it. I mean, they even have trouble kissing in public. The only kiss they shared was because of the mistletoe I put above the door of Sasuke's room. I didn't take you for such a modest type little brother."

It was him.

That's it. I officially swear I will make my brother suffer for the rest of his life!

"Just because I don't grope my blond in front of everyone doesn't mean I'm modest or shy." I retorted furiously as I glanced at Naruto who was now looking at me. I knew the comment wouldn't go unnoticed by the only person who I considered mine.

He smiled at me, there was a small, barely noticeable blush on his cheeks and he took my hand in his linking our fingers. The touch made me shiver in a good way. His palms were really soft and warm. I couldn't help but tug on him to pull him closer. He complied with my request and was now in front me. I hugged him from behind, one palm still linked with his, the other on his hip gently pulling him to me. He leaned onto me and from the position we were in I couldn't see his face, which sucked because the dobe had a beautiful face to look at.

"Awww, 'Tachi, they're so cute!" both my brother and Dei were watching us. Itachi had a curious look on his face and he was observing Naruto rather than me.

I was intoxicated by Naruto's scent. Really, that man smelled so god damn good. It was his perfume, I wasn't sure which he used but it was amazingly attractive and my buddy down there seemed to share my thoughts since he woke up. I wanted to feel more of it and I laid my head in the crook of the dobe's neck. We were both still silent. His skin was soft and I found myself nuzzling it gently. He stirred at the feeling, I felt his spine tense against me, but he didn't move away. As if he was accepting my touch.

Thinking it was probably not smart but knowing Naruto wouldn't throw a fit or kill me in the house full of people, I went one step further and pecked his cheek. It was warm, so I knew he was blushing now, but damn if that didn't arouse me even more.

"Don't move! I've got to take a picture. Wait!"

Thanks for ruining the moment Dei. I glared at the blond with long hair and he simply smirked and ordered me to hold still so he could take a good shot. I obliged not sure if Naruto was comfortable with that.

Finally I heard the dobe speaking, but it wasn't what I expected to hear.

"Take another one, with Asa in the photo too."

He moved from my embrace to scoop the baby but the warm feeling soon returned when he pressed himself against me again. I simply put both of my hands around his waist and looked at him while Deidara was taking a picture. For a few moments he was gaping at the picture, but I didn't know why and I didn't care about it at the moment since having Naruto pressed this close to me did some things to me, specifically to the lower part of my body.

"Fukagu and I will be on our way." My mother interrupted my train of thoughts thankfully since it was threatening to become too obvious I got a hard on from the pressure his body was making on me, particularly his perky butt.

"I'll escort you Mikoto. Hold on a second teme." Before he left he pecked my cheek.

I froze when it suddenly struck me.

This, whatever Naruto was doing, was an act. He was putting on a show for my family and our neighbors to look like a happy couple soon to be wed.

For some reason the thought of it made me sick and I felt a slight pain in my chest. Even though the blond was mine or was going to be anyway, that didn't mean that he really wanted to do all these things. It didn't mean that he was enjoying the way our body pressed close or the kiss upon his cheek. Maybe he even loathed the fact that he had to kiss mine cutely before leaving with Asa to escort my parents.

I felt… sad. Was that how Naruto felt most of the time for being forced into this situation? Was that how he felt every time I would try to sneak my way and kiss him?

I heard the guests leaving, most of the neighbors left at the same time, right after mom and dad. Naruto bid them farewell and came back to the living room. Itachi and Deidara offered to help us clean up but the dobe politely refused saying he had nothing better to do anyway. Hearing that, the couple left short after everyone else, leaving me with the dobe and asleep baby in his hands.

"I'll clean up, you can go take a shower." My voice sounded weird, restrained, I knew why but I didn't want to talk about it. I knew Naruto felt I wasn't myself since he looked at me almost worriedly. He approached me putting a palm on my cheek in a very delicate but intimate manner.

"Nah, I'll put Asa to sleep then we can clean it up together. It'll be faster that way." Unlike mine, his voice was soft, gentle. I didn't have a clue what he thought at the moment, but I wasn't going to ask. I started feeling and acting weird enough for my liking; that would've been just too much.

"Hn."

An hour later dobe and I were still clearing up the mess in our house. We didn't talk much, barely told each other to pass the towel or some dishes.

"Did you try my cake?" He asked carefully. I glanced at him and noticed he was finishing with washing the dishes since there was not enough room in the dishwasher for all of it.

"No. I rarely eat sweets." If I had known that I've maybe, possibly signed my death verdict by saying that I'd totally lied and would've said yes.

"What? You bastard! You have to try it! Here, take this piece I cut off for myself, I'll get another one." He offered me a plate with a piece of delicious looking cake he made yesterday.

"Hn."

"Stop staring at it, it's not poisonous damn you! Take it." He was glaring at me looking all cute and bothered.

"How do I know you didn't poison that particular piece and offered it to me just to get rid of me?" I teased him a bit wanting to provoke a reaction.

"Jerk!" He yelled at me and then took the spoon and tasted the piece on the plate rolling his eyes at how delicious it was. I was watching him amusedly, smirking at his previous expression and waiting for him to take the next bite. What he did next surprised me and definitely wiped the said smirk of my face.

The dobe inched closer and pulled me by the neck to meet him halfway in an open mouth kiss. I barely noted that the point was to let me taste the cake on his tongue because I was completely lost in desperate attempt to glue his body to me. He really tasted like chocolate, and it was deliciously erotic. My previous thoughts about Naruto not wanting me to touch him went flying out of the window when he deepened the kiss.

I could barely hold back a moan at how delicate his tongue was and how good he tasted. I let my hands settle on the lower part of his back and I pulled him closer causing him to let out a sweet moan that went to straight to my growing erection. He was addicting. His hands cupped my cheeks and he pulled my head down to get a better angle. He dominated the kiss and I let him do as he pleased, I wasn't going to ruin the moment by going aggressive on him if he didn't want me to. I allowed myself to be kissed by the cute blond with the most adorable blush on his face.

Naruto's eyes were closed as he kissed me. With his body pressed close to mine I savored his scent enjoying the feeling of his lips on mine. Was it because I liked Naruto that I enjoyed the kiss so much or was it because he was so good at kissing me? I was thinking should I interrupt the kiss and talk things through or just go with it as far as Naruto wanted.

I gently traced Naruto's chest with my right hand accidentally stopping above his heart feeling his frantic heartbeat. I froze for a small second but it was enough for the blond to register I wasn't responding and he broke the kiss panting for air. My hand still loomed there, right above his heart, he didn't bother moving it. When his eyes met mine I know that my breath hitched.

The dobe was beautiful.

His eyes were sparkling, but it wasn't only lust written in those ocean blue orbs, the happiness in them was evident too. For god knows what reason I couldn't keep my mouth shut.

"You're… beautiful."

Blue eyes went wide for a moment before they softened and I received a gentle smile from him which turned into a smirk.

"If you're saying that just cuz you want to do me, you should know better than to think I'm that easy."

"No."

His smirk was no longer there, instead he pouted cutely crossing his arms moving completely from me.

"Huh? You can't just walk around and tell people they're beautiful, Teme."

I was the one who got closer to him now pulling him gently to my embrace and looking him directly in the eyes. If he was that dense I had to be blunt with him which would probably cause me to die of embarrassment in a few moments.

"I don't do that. I don't go around telling people they're beautiful."

"Why did you say it to me then?" The pout was still there and I really had to try hard to restrain myself from reaching out to kiss him.

"Because I mean it."

Well, one thing was certain. It wasn't as embarrassing to admit that I meant what I said as it was for him to hear that. Naruto's cheeks went dark red and he glanced at the side murmuring something I couldn't catch.

"What dobe?"

I lifted his chin turning his head to look at me expecting him to repeat what he muttered but he was silent, avoiding eye contact. Finally I nuzzled his nose with mine and he looked at me in surprise, if I had to guess I'd say he hadn't expected me to be that gentle. And truth to be told I was never the romantic type and I didn't know what the fuck was wrong with me, but I just felt like it and so I showed the dobe the side of me nobody knew. Not even myself for that matter.

His gaze was questioning and I couldn't help but peck his lips softly.

"What?" I asked him again not sure if I was asking about the soft murmur or his look.

"Nothing, I was just wondering…" He accepted the gentle nuzzle and rubbed his small nose over mine, "why, Sasuke?" My name rolled on his lips and it sent shivers through my body. Almost everyone called me by the name, but there was something special about the way this blond was saying it every time. I could almost imagine him screaming it while I pounded into h-

Stop, damn it.

"Why what, dobe? I told you already, I meant what I said."

"But why? Why am I beautiful?"

Was he for real? Did he ever look at himself in the mirror when he was all flushed because of me? Oh, fuck, did he really want me to explain why I found him beautiful? Compliments were not my thing, but the dobe was looking so hopefully.

But I didn't do this kind of shit…

But the dobe was waiting…

But I was supposed to be cold hearted bastard not this… sappy idiot I'm currently becoming…

But the dobe…

Oh fuck it.

I already concluded I liked the idiot, besides I kissed him, groped him, teased him… And it's not like he wanted to escape from whatever was going on between us since he wasn't moving or pushing me away. I closed my eyes before swallowing a lump in my throat.

Ok.

I could do this.

"Your eyes… they're full of unspoken emotions. When you smile your whole face lights up. And… when you kiss me, you have that adorable blush on your cheeks that makes me want to ravish you. You're beautiful, period. And if you ever make me repeat this or tell someone you heard these words for me, no matter how beautiful you are, you'll become number one person on my list of people to kill instantly replacing Itachi. Got it?"

The threat seemed ridiculous with this stupid pink color on my cheeks which I knew was there, since I believe this was the most embarrassing moment of my life. I wasn't sure what was the emotion swirling in the blond's eyes but when he bit his lower lip innocently I snapped.

I attacked Naruto with my lips, both of my hands were cupping his face and I kissed him with everything I've got. My kiss was needy, almost desperate. I realized I was moving, pushing Naruto backwards when his back got pressed into a kitchen counter which made him groan. The noise he made provoked me more than it was rational and I lifted him on the counter. His hands were clenching my shirt but once he realized he was in a sitting position he tangled them in my hair pulling me to him.

My hands were resting on his inner thighs pulling his legs apart so we could get into more comfortable position. As comfortable as we could anyway, since we were both fully dressed and this was totally unexpected. I didn't even know what this was anymore.

Naruto was moaning as he attached his lips to my neck while I gently massaged his thighs not touching the one part of him I knew wanted my attention badly. Both of us were very aroused, both of us wanted each other and both of us had one thought in mind.

"Bed." He was the first one to voice it and I gave him a nod of confirmation pulling him away from the kitchen up the stairs to one of the bedrooms. His was closer so he tugged on my hand to signal our direction.

Naruto's room was lightened by the street lights that were shining through the window and it was creating perfect atmosphere. I unzipped my pants not removing them and watched Naruto getting into his bed. He was lying on his back, pulling his zipper down, removing the pants after he unclasped it and threw them off the bed. His gaze was set on the ceiling which made me feel bothered since I wanted his attention on me only. I removed my pants following his lead and joined him in his bed, which smelled like dobe and the scent made me close my eyes and just savor it.

"Hey, Sasuke…" When I opened them I found Naruto looking at me as if wanting to know something , his eyes looked questioning. "Can I…" See? I was fucking perfect at reading the dobe. I turned on my side leaning on the elbow and I realized that whatever he wanted to ask I wouldn't dare deny it. Looking at Naruto, his adorable blushing face, his disheveled hair, his perfect handsome body and those eyes… god… I've never seen anyone with eyes like his… it made me acknowledge the fact that I indeed cared for this man more than I thought was possible. It was Naruto. Man that I bickered with, argued, hit… first person that refused me, only person I willingly kissed, man that was raising a child with me. He was the man I unconsciously started falling in love with.

Fuck.

I gently traced my knuckles over his forehead and cheek, stopping at the chin to cup it and make him keep his eyes on me.

"M?"

"Argh, it's stupid, never mind…"

My lips left a soft kiss on his and I could say the gesture surprised him, I meant it as an encouragement to make him ask me whatever he wanted to.

"Naruto." His eyes hazed with lust at the sound of his name coming from my lips and I saw his lips clenched into a thin line as if pondering if he should ask me…

"I don't want things to get weird between us after we spend the night having sex in my bed. I'm also not as experienced as you are and I hate one-night stands. The funny thing is… I can't say no to you anymore. Hell, I don't even want to say no to you anymore. Therefore I have a request…"

My brain was registering the things dobe was saying, he seemed to find trouble in forming the question he wanted to ask and I didn't want him to be ashamed in front of me or fear of my reaction. So I leaned close to him again and kissed his cheek.

"Just say it, stop beating around the bush."

"I don't want to be just another person you had sex with. I don't have any expectations since I know it's not really your thing, but… I don't want you to just fuck me as if it means nothing to you." He bit his lower lip looking at the side then at me again. "Will you make love to me, Sasuke?"


I did not intend to leave it like this!

I swear!

*snickers*

I would reeeealy love to know what you guys think :P Do you like it in Sasuke's pov? Do you maybe want one in Naruto's? Or do you prefer the 3rd person pov? :o

And I apologize to anyone who find Sasuke a bit OOC, I imagine him this way, and this is fan fiction; Sasuke is cold but kind of ready to die for the love of his life bastard in my head so I'm trying to keep him that way ;p

And in my defence I like romantic Sasuke! :P

Please drop a review and let me know what you think :D

Thanks for reading and see you soon! :)
