Hi there^^
I'M BACK and finaly if I say so myself. I had the biggest writer block in the history of mankind! (Ok, so maybe I'm exagerating^^). Whatever I wrote, I hated it. But it seems I'm nearly past that.... nearly. I've never needed that long to write such a short chapter. I'm not stuck with the plot but I just can write it T_T . So be honest with me if this chapter is shitty!
"Talking"
"Demon talking"
'Thinking'
'Inner demon'
Dreams/flashbacks
Somewhere else in the castle a sleeping Naruto woke a with yelp, startled by the memories his dispelled Kage Bunshin left behind he fell out of his bad all tangled up in the bed sheets.
At first he thought it to be a weird dream but as he realized that it was indeed real he nearly had a heart attack. His Kage Bunshin had been caught by Sesshomaru meaning the demon lord now knew that it was him who played the pranks on him. But what really shocked him was not that, it was the kiss.
He couldn't believe it. Sesshomaru… the cold demon lord Sesshomaru had kissed him, with tongue and all. And he had liked it.
At that point of time a tomato would have been jealous at the brilliant red colour of Naruto's face.
Naruto hadn't been able to sleep for the rest of the night. He had been caught during his prank! Sesshomaru had caught him. Now he would know it was him who pulled all these pranks on him.
But that was not the real reason Naruto couldn't sleep that night. He just couldn't help himself, Sesshomaru had kissed him. The Sesshomaru, the most stuck up person Naruto had ever met, had kissed him. The shock was just too much for him. But the worst thing was that he had actually enjoyed it. He blushed at the mere thought at what could have happened if the Bunshin hadn't dispelled itself.
'Finally you see things my way,' Naruto's inner demon had said, after the blond finally admitted that he kind of liked the Inuyoukai.
When it was time for breakfast Naruto considered staying in his room. Not just for breakfast but for the rest of his stay in the Western castle. He just knew, the moment he saw the young demon lord, he would die of embracement. He wouldn't be able to look at him much less talk to him.
'Oh god. Why did I have to be born a Kitsune? This urge to prank people will be the death of me someday.' Naruto cursed inwardly while putting on his clothes.
In the end he decided to go to breakfast. He had no choice, really. If he stayed in his room people, like his grandfather, would get suspicious. Besides he'd just have to act as if nothing happened, that couldn't be that hard. He had, after all, spend the first fifteen years of his life pretending to an obnoxious, ramen-addict with attention issues.
In the end he braced himself and made his way to the dining-room. All the while Naruto's heart beat like crazy.
He stopped as when he reached the doors of the dining-room.
'Ok, Naruto. You can do this,' he thought, taking a deep breath before finally entering the room.
Nervous as hell Naruto looked around. The young Kitsune nearly died from the relief when he noticed that a certain demon lord was missing at the table. The only people in the room, beside himself, were Rei Inu and his grandfather.
After a short greeting Naruto took a seat and started eating. He couldn't help but wonder where Sesshomaru was. So after he had eaten for a while, flinching every time someone entered the room, he decided to ask why the demon lord was nowhere to be seen.
"Ne, where's Sesshomaru? " Naruto asked Rei Inu, trying to appear carefree.
A strange gleam entered Rei Inu's eyes as Naruto asked his question.
"Why do you want to know?" the old dog demon asked instead of answering Naruto's question.
"Just curious," the blond answered gulping. 'Oh god, please tell me the bastard did not tell anyone about last night,' he thought, the silence was making him nervous.
"He's busy. Probably will be all day. Lord-business you know." Rei Inu finally answered, the strange gleam still hadn't left his eyes.
Though Rei Inu was freaking him out a bit, 'That look can't bode well!' , Naruto couldn't be any happier.
'Business?! HA, maybe I'm lucky and the stoic bastard will have a lot of work to do then I won't see him all day. Who knows, he might think yesterday night was just a dream,' the blond youkai thought, his mood suddenly much better.
After breakfast he decided to spend some time in the garden, so he left his grandfather in Rei Inu's company. The two of them had been exchanging strange looks all throughout breakfast, it was scary.
"You noticed?" asked the old dog demon as soon as Naruto left the room.
"What? You mean Naruto's relieved look when you told him of Sesshomaru's 'Lord-business'?
"Exactly. The kit was kind of jumpy."
"You think something happened between the two of them?"
"I don't think, I know that something happened between them. You should have seen Sesshomaru." Rei Inu said and began telling the Kitsune of the encounter he had with his grandson the same morning.
It was early in the morning; Rei Inu had just gotten out of bed and decided to have a nice hot bath before breakfast. Though he had his own bath attached to his sleeping chamber he preferred the biggest hot spring of the castle since it was the hottest one. He wasn't surprised to meet Sesshomaru in the bath though he was surprise by the mood his grandson was in, something about him was different.
He had the same aura about him as a child that had found something new to play with. It was quite disturbing because Sesshomaru's face was as expressionless as ever.
"What has gotten you into such a good mood, pup," Rei Inu asked as His curiosity got the better of him. He had the strange feeling that the blond Kitsune had something to do with the strange mood his grandson was in.
"I don't know what you mean grandfather." Sesshomaru answered.
"Of course you do, now tell me what happened."
"Nothing of importance. It's just that I caught young Naruto as he was trying to pull a prank on me..."
"You caught him? How? Have you found out how he could pull all those pranks even though he couldn't have done that? You haven't hurt him, have you?" Rei Inu interrupted.
"No I did not hurt him, quite the opposite." The young youkai answered with a smirk.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Never mind, grandfather."
"Sesshomaru, what do you plan on doing to him?" Rei Inu asked, he didn't like that smirk on Sesshomaru's face at all.
"Oh, don't worry. I don't plan to hurt him," Sesshomaru answered, smirk still firmly in place.
After that the younger male left the bath.
"Somehow I've got the feeling that our family will joined much earlier than we thought possible" Yuki said after listening to Rei Inu, "Maybe we won't even have to interfere."
"Too bad, I kind of liked the idea of playing matchmaker," the inuyoukai laughed.
"You lied when you told Naruto that Sesshomaru will be busy all day didn't you."
"Lying is such a harsh word. But indeed, I lied," Rei Inu said grinning widely, "Imagine the kits face when he runs into Sesshomaru. I'd really like to see that."
The two youkai couldn't help themselves but to burst out laughing after that.
In the meantime Naruto was on his way to the garden, humming a happy tune. Sesshomaru was busy, the weather was good. Life was great. If he were Sakura, or any other female, he would have been squealing in happiness.
He was so relaxed he didn't even notice the person following him until he felt the hot breath on his neck as the person said:" You sure are lovely today, Naruto"
At the shock of hearing Sesshomaru's voice right next to him Naruto let out a very unmanly scream and attached himself to the ceiling of the corridor, much to the demon lord's surprise.
"You asshole! You nearly gave me a heart attack," Naruto yelled at the youkai, still hanging upside down from the ceiling. In his anger he completely forgot that he should be avoiding the other demon.
"I did?" asked the inuyoukai, an amused glint entering his eyes.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?!" the blonde said as he detached himself from the ceiling, "You shouldn't sneak up on people you never know how they could react."
"What about you?" Sesshomaru asked in a husky voice coming closer to Naruto.
"What about me?" Naruto retorted while trying to get some distance between himself and the Lord of the West.
The strange glint in Sesshomaru's eyes was scaring him. It was then that Naruto realised that he was backed up against a wall with no way to escape the inuyoukai.
"What about your sneaking into other peoples rooms at night and uninvited?" whispered the demon lord, leaning in so that his breath tickled Naruto's ear, sending shivers down his spine. A part of his was scared by this, another exited.
Gulping, Naruto decided to play dumb and answered," I don't know what you are talking about. I'm not sneaking into anyone's rooms at night."
"Hmm. Maybe you are right. Maybe it was just a dream," Sesshomaru said and Naruto couldn't help nut look relieved,"… but maybe I was right. I know you were in there last night. Your smell is still lingering in my room."
The young lord nuzzled Naruto neck, "And what a nice scent you have."
"I-I do-don't know what you want with me. I haven't left m-my room all night yesterday," the blond stuttered panicking. Sesshomaru's breath on his neck made funny things to his body.
"Hmm, surely your memory can't be that bad. But no worries, I have a foolproof way to remind you."
And before Naruto could even utter a word of protest his lips were claimed in a passionate kiss.
