Well My exams lasted for three weeks sorry I took so long to update.
My Spanish teacher told me that I failed…so yeah ._. Life is sad.
A lot of my exams raped me though. Emotionally, verbally, sexually all that bad stuff!
Anyways, Just wanted to thank my reviewers. I appreciate it.
Now let's start!
I would appreciate if you guys would give me 5 reviews per Chapter.
CHAPT3R 9
Naruto sat cross-legged by the table. He placed his elbow on the table with his chin in his hand and stared out the room. The sun was already setting by now. He felt that today was a nice day though strange at times. Like Kiba's appearance, Sasuke's still weird behaviour and his even weirder behaviour. He really liked it.
Sasuke released a sigh which cause Naruto's attention to be shifted to him. He looked at his face then smirked. Naruto smiled in return.
"I'm sleepy." Naruto stated. He glanced briefly at Sasuke's lap and fell back on it.
Sasuke just looked at him. "Using me as a pillow again, I see."
Naruto chuckled. "Thank you for your sacrifice." His eyes closed shut. "Sasuke?"
"Hmm?" he murmured.
"I really had a fun day today."
Sasuke smiled down at his face. "Me too."
After that answer, Naruto dozed off with a smile on his face.
I didn't get my kiss today. He brushed the hair away from his forehead Oh well.
He placed a soft kiss on the area he cleared.
There's always tomorrow.
He didn't fall asleep.
He wasn't sleeping.
Naruto was standing on the outskirts of the village waiting to leave but Shikamaru was currently thanking Nanu-san for all her help.
His face was just burning up just thinking about the photo shoot and even more so when he thought about the kiss.
He glanced in Sasuke's direction only to be met with black onyx eyes. He was temporarily immobile. Sasuke's eyes just seemed to be so entrancing at the moment. There was a glint of humour in those eyes but they were so steady and uninterrupted. They knew what they were looking at and they wanted it.
Naruto realized that he had been staring openly at him now. He blushed and looked away.
Ugh! I'm acting like an idiot! Naruto inwardly screamed at himself. I probably just imagined it.
But why Naruto would have imagined Sasuke kissing him. And now that he was really thinking about it, Sasuke had already kissed him on the neck many times before and they felt nice.
They felt really nice.
Wait…They really did feel nice? Naruto thought. Why aren't I freaked out by that thought at all?
Oh yeah. Sasuke has kissed Naruto on his neck many times before and he always freaked out. But for some reason that kiss on his forehead was perfectly normal to him now.
Normal?
Was it really normal?
Was it normal to get accustomed to you male best friend kissing you whenever the hell he felt like?
Naruto honestly thought it wasn't normal but it was weird. Like discovering you have two dads and two mums weird. You couldn't quite explain it.
He was pulled out of his thoughts when he felt a soft fabric cover his forehead. He was slightly startled but quickly calmed down after he felt a knot being tied at the back of his head. He tapped the metal of his head band to make sure that it was his.
"It fell off your head and you didn't even notice, moron." Sasuke whispered close to Naruto's ear.
The close range made the baby hairs on his neck stand up. He jumped away so he was facing Sasuke who was currently smirking like he owned the damn place. "You're a jackass for not giving it to me earlier." He retorted playfully.
"Hm..." Sasuke murmured. "I didn't know that jackasses loaned people their laps when certain people wanted to sleep on them."
Naruto blushed at the memory. Not only that, but the spot Sasuke had kissed on his forehead, was now burning brightly. He swore that there was a hole being burned through his headband.
"You're still a bastard…" Naruto mumbled out while he averted his eyes to a patch of grass under his feet.
"And you're still stupid." Sasuke said softly. His smirk widened as he saw a deeper blush rise on the blonde's face. He looked positively cute standing with his eyes downcast like that pretending to be fascinating by a patch of grass.
Sakura, who was standing a little away nursing Kiba, heard the whole conversation that went down between the two. It was like they were acting like lovers. Playfully throwing insults at each other, blushing easily mainly from the blonde. And what absolutely irked her were the long dazed eyes Naruto seemed to get whenever he stared at Sasuke's face for too long. He looked so innocent, gullible,
And disgusting.
It crawled her skin knowing that Naruto was making such a caring expression to Sasuke and he, in return, gave him a small teasing smirk.
Absolutely revolting.
"Sakura." Kiba called her. "Will you stop glaring like that? You look like you're ready to kill."
Judging from the surprised look she gave him after it looked like she wanted to kill not only them but him as well.
She narrowed her eyes at the dog nin. "Kiba, why do you like Naruto?"
Kiba was slightly surprised by that question but he was happy to answer it. "Well," he glanced over at the blonde. "Everything about him just seems perfect to me. I love the way he can smile even though his heart is breaking. I love to hear his laugh. I like to see the way his eyes sparkle when he talks about something he loves. I love it when he defends his friends and never gives up on what he truly believes in." he was smiling at the end of his little explanation.
She looked over at Naruto too. Yes, those were the qualities of the blonde that Sakura also liked.
She almost smiled until she saw Naruto blush heavily at something Sasuke said.
He needs to die. Was the only thought Sakura thought was plausible at the moment.
She decided that she and Kiba have been too laid back with the developing relationship of the two boys. She needed to stab it in the heart and watch it bleed to death.
"Kiba," he looked at her. "I've thought of a plan."
He received a smile from her but it wasn't a happy one more like a creepy smile that serial killers get. "You're not gonna hurt Naruto are you?" Kiba growled at her. He was ready to smack the crap out of Sakura if she hurt his blonde in anyway.
"Calm down." She gestured with her hand. "It won't hurt Naruto at all. You have nothing to worry about."
Sakura was so sure that this plan would work. She knew that Naruto was very caring of his friends and that characteristic would work for her but completely backfire for him.
Yeah, she looked at them; he's going to be mine.
Shikamaru walked over to the little group and immediately sensed that something was wrong. Kiba had a worried expression on his face. Sakura was glaring quite aggressively at Naruto and Sasuke. And the pair was completely oblivious to the look.
He really needed to talk to Kiba about this. "Alright guys. Let's go." Shikamaru shouted to the group snapping them from their states.
They all walked into the forest with Shikamaru leading and began jumping through the trees. He almost laughed at the scene when he glanced back. Everyone, excluding himself and Sakura, were totally out of character. The notorious "bad guy" of the Konoha village, who betrayed his people, was wearing on sweatpants and a long-sleeved black shirt. Naruto was wearing clothing that didn't have orange in it, for once. Kiba had a bandage wrapping around his whole head to hold his jaw in place. If someone happened to see this group of people, they would probably run away from the weird combination of people.
But no matter how interesting the group looked, he still held a bad feeling about Sakura. He was already suspicious of her from that time she blew up piece of the mountain. And that glare she kept on sending the two boys, was not helping the suspicion to disappear.
Naruto had been feeling a look on him for a while now. He glanced over to find Sakura glaring in his direction. She must have realized what she was doing because she quickly turned her head in front.
For a while now, whenever Naruto looked at Sakura she seemed to be thinking hard or glaring frequently mostly in his direction. He wondered if she hated him. But why should she? He hadn't one any wrong. Well, besides the fact that he selfishly decided to come on this mission and practically forced her to come along…
She does hate me. Naruto thought gloomily.
He looked over at Sasuke. The reason why he came here and the reasons for a lot of things that happened while he wasn't here.
Naruto shook his head he didn't want to think about those bad times. He had Sasuke back and he really changed for the better. He really missed more than words can express. Sakura probably missed him too…
Oh…That's why she keeps glaring at me…
Naruto realized that Sakura still liked Sasuke. She hadn't been able to spend much time with him with healing Kiba. While him on the other hand, basically spent the whole time with him. She probably had that fear that he might just disappear in the middle of the night again and she wanted to spend as much with him as possible like Naruto.
He clutched his chest. The thought of hurting his friend was paining his chest but when he thought about sharing Sasuke with her, the pain became just a little unbearable.
"Naruto," Sasuke had gotten closer to the blonde when he saw the worried expression on his face. "Are you okay?" He made sure not to put too much of his lovey feelings into that phrase. It might freak Naruto out.
But even if he had been confessing his undying love and pledging his life to worship his, it didn't appear Naruto would have noticed. His brows started to furrow and he was looking down biting on his lip.
"Naruto." He asked more assertive.
He looked up to the voice that spoke "Um…yeah Sasuke?"
Sasuke raised a brow at him. "Are you okay?"
"Of course." He looked back in front and smiled. "You should be asking yourself that."
"Hn. I'm perfectly fine." Sasuke smirked and continued. "You could even say I'm hot."
Naruto snorted as to fight off the blush that spread across his face before Sasuke could see it. "Not even close."
Of course Sasuke saw it. "I suppose your right. I'm more of the mysterious sexy type."
Naruto looked at Sasuke smiling. "You wish that you had my level of good-looking."
"Yeah, I don't think blonde and stupid would fit me. It's more your style."
Naruto frowned. "Bastard. You're just jealous of my awesomeness!"
Sasuke gave a small sigh. "Your absolute awesomeness of being stupid and so hard-headed."
Naruto stuck out his tongue. "You're a real asshole and a jackass," he paused and added "and a huge bastard!"
"Jealousy is an extremely ugly thing on your already ugly face Naruto." Sasuke shook his head as a sign of shame.
Naruto grabbed one of Sasuke's bangs and tugged it hard. "Total utter bastard."
Sasuke smirked and grabbed one of the spikes at the back of his head. Just like he thought, it was softer than a girl's hair. Before when he got close to Naruto, all he could think about was getting in his pants and there was absolutely nothing wrong with that. But now that the air around them was light and joking, he could really enjoy the feel of it.
He tugged on the lock harder than Naruto did but not too much to cause pain or lose his balance. He smirked when he saw him blush at that.
Naruto released Sasuke's lock and saw that it snapped back into place. His eyes widened slightly at this. He always thought it was gel that held it up but it turns out that it's naturally like that. He wanted to touch it some more but the thought of Sasuke watching him with his dark eyes while he touched it, made him embarrassed and blush.
Sasuke smirked. "Admiring my beauty?"
Naruto figured out what Sasuke meant by that. Apparently he had been staring at his face the whole time while thinking. That just increased his blush intensity.
"Shut up."
"Not denying it I see." Sasuke smugly stated.
Naruto smiled. "Of course not. Your probably prettier than most of the girls in the whole world."
"And your probably shorter than any normal male in the whole universe."
Naruto pouted after that and looked away. He knew he was shorter than an average male, but he was still a growing boy.
Sasuke smirked. Naruto was too cute for his own good then his expression became serious. Naruto was too cute and hot. Did he get assaulted by some perverted assholes before? And if he was did he let them do it?
He shook his head. Of course, that would never happen. Naruto could defend himself. But he was one of those kind-hearted people. What if he let them play with his body because he thought it was the Kyuubi they hated and he deserved it? Did people even still hate the Kyuubi?
He needed to stop thinking about these things. He'll find out more information when he gets back.
Oh great, he hated thinking about Konoha. He was reminded of the one person he absolutely could not ever face. He regretted this almost as much as leaving Naruto at their last battle. This person was his mentor, his leader and sometimes even his dad. He tried his best to talk him out of going to Orochimaru. But Sasuke being him was way too clouded by revenge and the urge to get stronger that he completely ignored everything he said.
He wouldn't be able look into Kakashi Hatake's eyes without feeling a great sense of guilt and betrayal.
Sasuke sighed softly but apparently it was loud enough for Naruto to hear because he slowed to Sasuke's pace.
"Okay, Sasuke?" Naruto asked.
He smirked. "Worried, idiot?"
"Yeah. You can't even keep up with me." He faked a caring sigh. "Might be losing your touch."
Sasuke chuckled. "I'm only holding back because I know your delicate and can't handle such fast things."
Naruto smiled. "Are you challenging me, U-chi-ha?"
Sasuke smirked. "Wouldn't be much of a challenge."
"Yeah, I guess. Wouldn't want you crying now." Naruto mocked.
"Okay fine." Naruto grinned when he heard that. Sasuke would have preferred staying behind him and just watch his ass cheeks move up and down with each leg movement, but Naruto was asking for a challenge and he never loses challenges.
"Ready," Naruto started. "Set...Go!"
Before he even said "go", he sped up for a head start. Sasuke shook his head. It wouldn't help him. He quickly caught up jumping over two branches at a time.
Naruto saw that Sasuke was keeping up with him and with ease. He decided to pick up the pace. He applied more chakra to his feet so he could travel longer in the air. The move was successful as he saw that Sasuke disappeared from his side. He started to smile until he saw a black blur shoot in front of his eyes. Sasuke turned his head around to smirk at Naruto.
He growled at the raven-haired teenager. He's acting so cocky. He applied more chakra to his feet and shot ahead of Sasuke. Now he appeared to be having trouble keeping up if the furrowing of his brows was any indication.
"Wait," Sasuke said. He didn't even sound a least bit tired. "Slow down."
Naruto turned around and put his hands behind his head. He was still applying the same amount of force just jumping backwards. "What?" he grinned. "The great Sasuke can't keep up."
"I could beat you while sleeping." He responded.
Naruto pouted.
"Jumping that fast and backwards is dangerous and stupid." Sasuke stated.
He stuck out his tongue. "Your just jealous that your lo-" Naruto was unable to finish his sentence because his foot broke the branch he was about to jump off of. He couldn't catch himself in this position and he would be sure to hit his head against the ground.
Oh, crap. He squeezed his eyes close and hoped that he wouldn't hit the ground too hard. He waited for his back to hit the floor but instead an arm strongly wrapped around his waist an under knees. The thing that caught him felt familiarly warm.
Naruto peeked through his eyes to see who caught him. Sasuke's dark onyx eyes were looking down into his ocean tinted ones looking extremely pissed but with a hint of relief there as well.
"I told you to slow the fuck down." He narrowed his eyes at him. Not because he was angry he was just inspecting Naruto's face for any scratches. When he found none he was happy but that didn't mean he had to let him go just yet. He settled for looking down at his face instead. He had a small nose plus the whisker-like markings on his face. It made him look like a fox and an extremely cute one with the look of slight fear in his eyes.
Naruto was having a hard time looking away from Sasuke's eyes. He really thought they were pretty. A lot of people may like different coloured eyes but Naruto really liked how pure the darkness of his eyes looked. It was kind of ironic to think that but it was true.
"You could have broken your neck." Sasuke stated.
"Sorry…" Naruto began to look away.
"i'm not scolding you." Sasuke closed his eyes and slowly leaned down.
Ah! He's gonna kiss me. Naruto thought. …whatever.
Naruto closed his eyes too and clung onto his shirt. He waited much longer than he thought he had to and was getting impatient. He started to fidget in Sasuke's arms and then fidget even more when he thought about the girly position he was in. Sasuke was taking take long for his patience. He opened his eyes only to see Sasuke staring down at him having a smile on his face. A small but really amused smile.
"Thought I was going to kiss you?" Sasuke asked his smile increasing slightly.
Naruto's whole face reddened. "You bast-"
He didn't finish the sentence, because Sasuke's lips were pressed against them cutting off any thought logic. it wasn't a forced pressed and they weren't actually kissing. Just had their lips touching. They both appeared to be shock. Naruto trying to understand the sensation and Sasuke desperately trying to control his knees from buckling under the glorious feeling. Naruto's lips were softer than he expected but plump at the same time.
Sasuke was the first to come out of his shock. He raised Naruto by the waist so his head was closer. He then let his tongue cautiously lick over his bottom lip. Now that sensation, shocked Naruto out of his shock. Sasuke's tongue slid in the slit of his two lips making them part open. He immediately shoved his tongue in and felt around. He made contact with Naruto's tongue and coaxed it into playing with him. It worked as a small sound came from Naruto's throat then he started to play back. Sasuke's tongue curled around Naruto's while he mimicked the same move trying to be dominant. But it wouldn't work, Sasuke literally had him in his arms. He slid his hand that was wrapped around Naruto's waist to the hem of his shirt. His index finger trailed a lazy circle on the small piece of exposed skin. Naruto broke lip contact and moaned. That felt really good to him.
The movement of Naruto made Sasuke fully assess the situation. He had a panting blonde cutie in his arms trembling and it made him panic.
Crap! He's probably scared. Sasuke mentally slapped himself. I should know how to control my hormones.
"Naruto…?" Sasuke asked hesitantly.
Said person was trying to open their eyes but the pleasure of being kissed, and like that, was making it hard.
"…do you hate me?" Sasuke tried his best to sound normal but you could hear the worry in his voice.
Naruto snapped out of his trance. "Are you crazy? I'd never hate you."
Sasuke paused a bit. He was happy to hear that but it sounded instinctive like he would have said that no matter what the question.
"Are you upset that I kissed you?"
Naruto blushed but said with confidence. "No. It felt nice."
Sasuke gained a cocky smirk on his face. "I know that."
"You're so damn cocky." Naruto rolled his eyes.
"Hmm. Wanna see?" Sasuke asked with an absolute teasing glint in his eyes.
"See what?" Naruto asked confused. Sasuke just stared at him with a weird look in his eyes.
Sasuke figured out that Naruto wouldn't get the joke. "Never mind. I'll show you later."
"Oh…" After that Naruto started thinking about the kiss. Why did it happen? Why didn't he stop it? Why did it feel so good? Wait, why was Sasuke still holding him? He wasn't complaining or anything. It felt really comfortable and he felt safe but Sasuke's arm might get tired. "Um…put me down, please."
Sasuke released Naruto's legs on the floor but he didn't release his waist. He held onto Naruto's waist with both of his hands and messaged the sides a little.
"Naruto, I have something really important to tell you." He looked into Naruto's ocean blue eyes watching them ripple with emotions.
He allowed Sasuke to do whatever he was doing to his waist because it was smoothing.
"I rea-"
Sasuke's sentence was cut off when his hands were knocked down from Naruto's waist by a tanned hand.
"Ukhiha." Kiba said. "Whac are you doing with your hans around Naruto's waist?"
Sasuke started to glare so fiercely at Kiba, Naruto started to fear for his life. "You're not talking so well." He stepped closer to the dog nin. "I can make you not talk at all."
Shikamaru suddenly appeared between the two boys, all of their heads on the same level. "This looks like a fantastic place to set camp." The fake enthusiasm in his voice was evident.
Sasuke calmly turned around and walk away. He was furious. He already planned to confess his feelings today and that was the perfect moment. The mood was romantic too and Naruto seemed to be happy. He felt killing the damn dog but that wouldn't help him one bit.
He sat down on a patch of grass somewhere away from everyone. He just wanted to sulk and he definitely didn't want anyone seeing him. But sadly it only lasted for a moment as he was interrupted.
"Sasuke?" Naruto's timid voice called from behind.
He smiled when he heard that voice. It could make his darkest days happy. "Yes, Naruto?"
He heard footsteps come closer then stop behind his back. "Um…" Sasuke could hear leaves being kicked behind him then suddenly the sides of his face were being held by warms hands. His head was tilted back and a pair of hesitant lips was placed against them. At first he was shocked that Naruto was doing it but got into the kiss. Naruto opened his lips inviting Sasuke to come in. The position they were didn't allow him fully into Naruto's mouth and the hands on his head wasn't allowing him to turn. But even though, Naruto stuck out his tongue to touch Sasuke's midway in the open. They flicked each other's tongue gladly swapping spit. Lips pressed down on the other and slowly parted. It was a fun kiss that suited Naruto.
Naruto was smiling down at Sasuke when they parted and Sasuke couldn't help but smile back.
"It felt really nice." Then he giggled all the while blushing like a tomato. Made Sasuke want to eat him, very slowly.
He released Sasuke's face making sure to touch his hair as he let go then he turned around and walked away feeling extremely happy. He glanced behind to see Sasuke fall on his back with him smiling. Naruto stopped for a second. The sun was setting leaving this multi-coloured glow, mainly hues of yellow and orange. They fell on Sasuke's pale skin making it appear like he had an angelic glow around his features. With his eyes closed and that small smile on his face, he looked like an innocent boy. He looked like he did at the dock, at peace.
Naruto smiled. He was happier seeing that little scene. He turned around and walked back to the newly made campsite. He sat down next to Shikamaru on a log.
"You okay?" he asked when he was seated.
"Yeah, why you ask?" Naruto asked.
"Your face is all red." Shikamaru raised a hand to his forehead.
Naruto removed his hand. "I'm fine."
Soon after Sasuke came out from the bushes not having any expression on his face but Naruto could see the barely noticeable smirk on his face. Just his appearance made Naruto blush more.
Sasuke spotted where Naruto was sitting and sat on his right side. He looked down at him and tossed him a small smile only meant for him. Naruto 'accidentally' rubbed his leg against his while smiling. He couldn't look Sasuke in the eyes as yet. He was still embarrassed about what he just did and why he did it. But he knew for sure that he liked doing it and that Sasuke was great at doing it with him. That thought made his face light up even more.
Sakura sat on the opposite side of Naruto and Sasuke. The shy glances from Naruto, the sly looks Sasuke sends him, the way they looked at each other, the way they leaned slightly into each other, the light brushing of their legs, all of that was just being displayed for Sakura to see and she couldn't help but think.
They looked really happy. She knew that they had to have done something.
Maybe, just maybe I should just leave them alone and let a love flourish.
She snorted out loud at that. She couldn't even lie to herself. She looked at them again and just knew she had to kill it before anything else happened.
Sakura looked at Kiba beside her and saw the hurt in his eyes. He guessed what she did. They had to have done something for them to become so close in such small time. He looked sad but furious at the raven-haired teen as he brushed his fingers lightly against Naruto's thigh. He also looked like he was ready to burst into tears.
He looks so pathetic. Sakura couldn't even feel sad for seeing such a pathetic scene. It was like he was giving up before even trying. She really only felt disgust at both Naruto, Sasuke and Kiba as well. All of this was just so infuriating and disgusting to her.
If she wanted what she wants, then she better start the plan now.
She stood up and had a pleasant smile on her face. "Naruto."
Said blonde stopped giggling at whatever the hell Sasuke said and looked at her. "Yeah, Sakura?"
"Can you help me get some wood?" she asked.
Sasuke immediately looked like he was ready to attack the bitch. But he turned down the expression for a one of indifference when he felt that emotion was showing on his face. All he felt from the pink haired girl was hate whenever he was around the blonde and now she just suddenly becomes happy-go-lucky in a day?
"Okay." Naruto said as he stood up.
They both walked off in the forest but not before Sakura sent Sasuke a sly smile before disappearing into the now dark forest. They walked a couple of feet away from the camp. Naruto started picking up dried branches and twigs where he could find. It was kind of dark so you couldn't really distinguish if you were picking up wood or picking up a snake. Sakura was doing the same but at a much slower pace then she suddenly stopped.
Naruto didn't comment on it he just continued picking up sticks but then Sakura started talking.
"Naruto. Can I tell you something important?" she turned around in Naruto's direction.
Naruto stopped collecting. "Yeah, sure."
She didn't say anything for a while. Naruto thought she just reconsidering telling him.
"You know," she started. "I really liked Sasuke when we were younger."
"I know." Naruto didn't particularly like the way the conversation was going. He felt this strange sense of guilt.
"When I found out that Sasuke had sent a letter saying that he would come home, I was so happy. I thought, maybe I would get to have a chance with him again."
Naruto stayed quiet.
"But, ever since he's been back, he's only been spending time with you." Her voice started to quiver. "Maybe I'm just not pretty enough."
"Sakura, you're really pretty." Naruto defended.
Sakura started crying. "Then why doesn't he like me Naruto?"
She felt arms wrap around her tight. "Can you help me?" she looked up to him with pleading eyes. "Can you help me get Sasuke to give me a chance?"
Naruto couldn't stand to here Sakura cry and he would do anything to help her. So why was he hesitating to tell her she'd help? Why did it make him jealous when she said she still liked him?
"Naruto, will you?" she asked desperately.
Naruto hesitated a bit. The feelings he was feeling was just confusion. Even if they cleared, he would never consider Sasuke as that. Whatever that was. "Yeah, I'll help you Sakura." He needed to help his friend get her feelings across.
"Really? Thanks Naruto." She hid her face in his chest to hide the evil smirk that came on her face.
Wow, My plan worked better than I expected.
