OKie dokie, way late on this update I know, but my life is a little disastrous at the moment and past bajillion moments... so now I'm going to try and squeeze this out in a timely manner. What you have to look forward to: DRAMAAAA, sasunaru temptations, and a thickening plot. tada!
Not that the dinner hadn't been lovely and delicious, but Naruto was glad that it was over. Kiba never stopped asking questions and giving him googely eyes through out the entire meal, Sasuke hadn't stopped brooding, and he'd had about all he could stand of avoiding eye contact with his manager. Even though Jiraiya was sitting right next to him and the large man's presence offered him a comforting warmth it still felt like Kyuubi would launch across the table and strangle him, or worse.
The group adjourned to the living room where they sat in a pleasant silence until Kiba started up again. Naruto grimaced inwardly, resisting the urge to tell the boy to stop and just let him relax for once. He desperately wanted to be able to unscrew his permasmile and slouch, but alas that would bring punishment he wasn't willing to endure.
"No, I'm not sure if I can get you into my next movie for free." he smiled warmly and cocked his head to the side, "I'm sure another one of your contacts can get you in." a devious glint in his eyes revealed he was being sarcastic and implying that the six boys could get what ever they wanted. He didn't have to look up to see that Kyuubi was glaring at him, and didn't stop until Itachi scoffed and clapped his hands.
"Oh there is no doubt Kiba will be first in line to see your new film." Itachi sipped from his crystal cup of whiskey, and swirled the brown liquid when his lips weren't pressed to the glass.
"Of course I'll be there! I was just wondering if there was going to be an after party or something?"
"We're not sure, but you'll definitely get an invitation in the mail if there is."
Kiba bit his bottom lip and sat on his hands, the only way he'd be able to stop himself from doing a happy dance. "That'd be great." his voice shook with excitement.
"How wonderful, well I think it's time we talked a little business if you don't mind." Itachi indicated to the red head and quirked an eyebrow.
"I think that'd be ok." Kyuubi nodded towards Nao and the girl rose to her feet.
"Why not let the boys show her around while we talk shop?" Itachi got up, not waiting for the red head's response, and sauntered down a hall to his office.
Kyuubi reluctantly followed tossing an unsure glance over his shoulder at his client, the girl looked relieved, he growled deep in his throat she would pay for that later.
Jiraiya watched as Gaara got to his feet and Neji followed suit, the two shared a familiar aura, he assumed they were lovers. He had been tying to size each of the boys up but had only succeeded in getting a feel for a few of them. Kiba was just an excited kid, perfectly happy to fawn over his idol. The boy's outfit didn't match his bubbly personality Jiraiya assumed one of his friends had loaned him the duds before they came down stairs. Lee, the kid with the weird hair cut and obvious obsession with green clothing, seemed to be the scholarly type. He had a different kind of air around him, not like the other entitled brats. Then there was Shikamaru, the kid looked bored but when he was paying attention his eyes shown with knowledge, the boy was most likely a genius. The other four he couldn't get a handle on and was a little on edge about leaving Nao with them.
"The rest of the house is a snooze, why not just come up to Sasuke's place, that's where the entertainment is." Gaara and Neji headed for the stairs, Shino fell in behind them as did Lee and Kiba. Shikamaru stayed back with Sasuke who was watching Nao's hands twitch in her lap.
Jaraiya got up and extended his hand to the girl, "It'll be fine, some fun will do you good."
Naruto smiled up at the man and accepted the offered hand, "right."
Sasuke watched with interest, there was more going on here than met the eye, not that he really minded or cared but it would make the game more intriguing.
(A/N: from this point on I wrote in 'WordPad' which has no spell check, so please forgive my spelling errors)
Naruto felt like a prinbeing escorted by six sexy paiges, and one goofy one with a bowl cut, as he climbed the stairs to 'Sasuke's place'. He wasn't sure what he was in store for but he assumed it would be a typical bachelor pad, at least he hoped it would be. Naruto had always wanted his own place and to be able to leave it a total mess. But alas he was a slave to an evil red headed lord and there would be no escape any time soon. Gaara walked in like it was his own apartment, pushing the door open with out any hesitation, the boys must all be really close, and as Neji walked by Naruto saw his hand brush against the eye browless boys' and made him wonder 'just how close were these guys?'
"Welcome to Sasuke's not so humble abode." Gaara swept his arm out in a welcoming gesture. He watched as the girl paused a moment at the thresh hold and tossed him an unsure glance before waltzing in with as much confidense as possible. She stood close to her body guard their shoulders almost touching in the relatively narrow entrance way.
"Come in," Shino said, the first words he had spoken to the star but he knew Sasuke would do nothing to make his guest feel comfortable, the UChiha still felt jilted that his entrance hadn't had the desired effect. Not to mention over dinner Itachi hadn't exactly talked his younger brother 'up' in fact he'd done quite the opposite, offering up little tid bits of embarassing stories and hints that the young brunette's confidense wasn't as high as he pretended. To a normal person this would have been nothing all that devistating, but for a teen age boy trying to get some nooky it was mortifying.
"Thank you." Naruto made himself comfortable on the couch, crossing his legs and sitting with his back straight, trying to hide is insecurities from the group.
"Want a drink?" Gaara offered, and when the girl nodded he listed off the things that Sasuke had to drink in his fridge.
"Tea would be great." Naruto caught himself eyeing the attractive boy's rear as he walked away towards, what Naruto assumed was, the kitchen. He felt his cheeks begin to heat up and his stomach knot, not to mention the burning sensation that was starting to spread over the left side of his head. When he turned he saw Neji giving him a rather venomous glare that would melt the skin off his face if he wwasn't careful. He giggled and tried to wave the look off, "You boys are all so cute, do any of you model?" he did his best cavity inducing sweet vioce.
"We've been offered a few jobs, but we have better things to do." Sasuke had grabbed the arm chair that faced the couch and was currently sitting with his left ankle resting on his right knee and his elbow on the arm rest with his chin resting on his closed hand. He couldn't surpress the jealousy bubbles that were rising in the pit of his stomach, he'd seen the girl checking out Gaara's ass, not that it wasn't a lovely ass but still, this chick was going to be his next great conquest and no body's tight buns were going to get in the way of that.

"So you agree to invest in our movie if we put your company's name in the credits?" Kyuubi had done a rough draft of an agreement.
"Naturally, I want to make sure my company gets its due credit." Itachi sat behind his huge mahogany desk leaning forward in his black leather seat, arms crossed over his desk. He wanted more but wasn't sure how to phrase it.
"There must be something else you want wih that kind of investment." Kyuubi looked up and studied the man's face, the brunette did want something else, the question was, what was it? If it had anything to do with Nao he would pull out right away and storm from the Uchiha's manor never to darken their door again.
"Well, naturally. I'm thinking that maybe with this kind of cash, my little brother might find a roll in the movie, and perhaps his band of miscrients as well." Itachi smirked but brought his hands up to cover it.
"That's not my call." Kyuubi put down his pen and sat back, arms crossed like a little kid that had just been told he'd have to do his chores before he could get dessert.
"Then my donation will be significantly decreased." Itachi knew the film didn't need any more investors, he had done his homework, but he also knew that if this man brought in a big time contributor like the Uchiha Co. he'd be sure to find a few more clients and continue to work with the new young hip director.
"I suppose I could make a few phone calls, what kind of rolls do you expect to be getting for them?"
"Oh whatever? Anything will work of course, just a little something to break him into the business. I'd actually prefer a small time roll, something that will show him he has to work from the bottom up. Maybe a manuer scooper that gets less than a minute of screen time." Itachi chuckled.
Kyuubi grinned evilly on the inside, this man was devious and enjoyed torturing those close to him, maybe the two would get along after all. "Deal."
~~~~!~~~~
"Thank you." Naruto put the empty tea cup on the coffee table. So far the only one who had spoken in full sentences to him were Gaara and Kiba, the brunette was currently locked in a heated discussion with Jiraiya about who was the greatest ninja of all time. Neji would glare at him occasionally, Lee sat in a corner shyly, while Shikamaru and Shino were engaged in an equally matched game of chess, and Sasuke just sat let his eyes wander of his form while Naruto tried to avoid eye contact.
"Well this is dull. Sasuke darling why not take our lovely guest on a tour of your little home." Gaara was desperate to get some kind of action going, and no doubt if the two found a moment alone they wouldn't be able to keep their hands off each other.
Sasuke quirked an eyebrow but got to his feet none the less, "Come on."
Naruto obeyed for some reason, not even second guessing his decission to follow the sexy brunette without a thought. He motioned for Jiraiya to sit down and smiled reassuringly, the white haired man didn't seem to mind as he wasn't done with his arguement. Apparently he was confident in his abiity to get to the girl's side quickly enough to keep her from danger even if he was in a different room.
The pair walked back to the entrance way and Sasuke began his tour, though Naruto wasn't really listening, he was too busy staring at yet another irresistable ass, and Sasuke wasn't really paying attention to what he said, he was trying to think of another seduction method.
"Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room..."
"I get it." Naruto said without thinking.
"Well if you don't want a tour why did you get up?" Sasuke breathed our quietly, turning on his heels and stuffing his hands in his pockets to keep them from reachig out and shaking the girl.
"Cause sitting there was boring ass hole." Naruto put his hands on his hips and cocked his head to the side.
Sasuke's eyes flared with a mixture of amusement and anger, so this was what the bitch was like when no one else was around. "Then leave." for soem reason the way Nao tilted her head made her even more adorable and the fact that she had a little bit of a foul mouth made Sasuke want to kiss it even more.
"Would if I could." Naruto crossed his arms across his chest, bumping into his breasts, which reminded him he was supposed to be a lady. It was too late, he couldn't take it back now.
"I'll open a window." Sasuke offered.
"Oh please, don't act like you want me to leave, Mr. Huffy." Naruto giggled in an attempt to regain some of his cute demeanor, unfortunately it had a different result.
The next thing he knew, his back was pushed up against the hall wall, with Sasuke's warm firm body pressed against his chest. A soft hand pressed over his mouth the concealed the small squeal the collision forced from his throat.
"Don't act like you don't want me." Sasuke's ego had taken over, and he couldn't help himself. This girl was testing his patience and he had snapped, just a little, a small tear in the other wise smooth wall that kept his emotions bottled up. This girl was dangerous.
Naruto's eyes narrowed and he glared with such intensity the brunette seemed startled for a moment before a smirk took over his perfect lips. "What's wrong princess?" he leaned forward and let his breath waft over the girl's jeweled ear. "Did I get it right?" his tongue darted out and took a small taste of the girl's flesh, she was sweet.
A shiver shot up Naruto's spine, he was in trouble, but it wasn't the kind of trouble he wanted to get out of it was the type that he wanted to get into more often. His head involuntarily tilted to the side giving the Uchiha access to his neck if he wanted to molest Naruto further. "Get off."
"Help me." Saskuke reached up and fondled one of the girl's large breasts, managing to find her nipple and give it a rough squeeze through the shirt. Her body was a quivering mess, Sasuke often had this effect on the women he chose to bed but not to this extreme. She was literally shaking, her fingers which had come up to grab his shoulders were twitching and he breath was ragged and uneven not to mention her big blue eyes were clouded with lust and a tinge of fear.
Naruto felt every one of his nerves catch fire, his heart was beating so fast he feared it would hope right out of his chest and dirty Sasuke's beautiful face. Try as he might his body wouldn't cooperate and shove the attractive brunette away, his mind was screaming at him to hurry up and push the guy off before any secrets were let loose. Speaking of secrets his gstring was getting even more uncomfortable as his usually dormant manhood began to harden. For some reason the drugs weren't doing their job of preventing erections and in a few more seconds he'd have a full blown hard on, and his life would be over. This had to end, no matter how much he wanted it to continue, it just had to stop.
"Stop..." it was a whimper and lacked the conviction he had hoped to portray, but it was a start.
"Do you really want me to?" Sasuke was curious, the girl was responding physically but it seemed as if her body was having an internal argument with her mind. His fingers ghosted down her sides sending visible chills up her spine, her nipples were hard and threatening to split her bra and shirt open. He imagined her lady parts were twitching with excitement as well but it was her eyes that captivated him. So big and depthless, shimmering like the ocean on a summer's day. Those pools were conflicted though, and darting back and forth nervously as if they'd get caught and punished for doing what should come naturally to a teenage female.
"Please?" Naruto was on the verge of tears, his hands had gone from gripping the strong shoulders to pushing against the firm chest. He wanted to escape, he was scared, scared of being found out, scared of loosing everything he had worked for, scared of Kyuubi. "Let go."
Sasuke didn't know why he did it, but he did, his arms fell limply down to his sides releasing the girl from the cage he had formed with his body. It was her voice, she sounded so desperate, terrified, and the weak way she pushed against his chest it was all a desperate cry for freedom. He didn't know what she could be afraid of but for some reason it pissed him off. 'only because now it's going to be even more complicated to get her in bed' he tried to convince himself. But deep down he knew that he wanted to be this girl's hero, it was a brief glimmer of humanity and it burned a little, like bile in his throat before he puked. Instantly he squashed it, there was no time to develop feelings for a person who would probably just use him in the end.
"Whatever?" Sasuke stuffed his hands back in his pockets and sauntered/ sulked back to the living room.
"That was short." Gaara raised an eyebrow at his friend indicating he was confused.
"It's not that big of a place." Sasuke offered as an excuse, he knew he would have some explaining to do later.
"Where is she?" Jiraiya stood up, picking up on the looks that were being sent between the two boys, and finally realizing that maybe he should have been more concerned with the girl's safety than he originally thought.
"Chill, she's in the bathroom." Sasuke smirked on the inside, liking that he came off as a threat to the older man.
"Oh. Well I guess I'll go check on her, I'm sure it's about time we headed out anyways."
"Whatever." Sasuke kicked his feet up on the coffee table and did his best to stuff the feelings of disappointment as deep as he could.
The body guard and his client descended the stairs alone, none of the boys had offered to accompany them back to the living room, and that was fine by Jiraiya. "You going to tell me what happened?"
"Nothing happened." Naruto was unusually stoic as he focused on counting the steps he took to keep his mind off of what actually did happen.
"Right." Jiraiya knew the girl's distressed signals, his back was hunched fingers worrying the hem of his shirt eyes down cast and giving off an 'oh shit' aura. Jiraiya knew Nao well, probably too well but he ignored that fact, and he would let her simmer for a while until he figured it out of she was willing to tell him.
They made it to the landing and ushered over the butler who showed them the way to Itachi's office, they knocked and waited to be invited in. Kyuubi was folding something up and putting it in his brief case when they came in, it gave Nao a sinking feeling to see the accomplished look on the red head's face.
"Just in time, we were just finishing up." Itachi's smooth voice broke the uncomfortable silence that was developing between Kyuubi and the blond, they both turned to look at him with fake smiles. "I trust Sasuke treated you like a lady." the elder Uchiha rose to his feet and motioned for them to head back out to the living room.
"Of course." Naruto tried his best to sound chipper, in his mind he failed miserably but everyone else seemed to believe him so he let it go.
"Oh, Jiraiya, can I have a word with you." Itachi made it out like it was a thought that had just popped into his head.
The white haired man looked confused before nodding. He watched Nao and Kyuubi walk out and the butler close the door behind them. He wasn't sure that he wanted the two to be alone, but assumed and hoped that the elderly man servant would remain in the room with them, and that Kyuubi wouldn't try anything that might harm his business deal.
"I've had this feeling that you've been wanting to talk to me all night."
Jiraiya grinned, "How terribly perceptive of you." he made himself comfortable leaning against the end of one of the book cases.
"So I was right. Wonderful, I take it you've thought about the other service I offer and have made up your mind about something in particular."
"I certainly have."
Ok so that was long over due and my badness, but here it is, a little taste of SasuNaru action, I'm going to try and keep it as unmooshy as I can for as long as I can. R&R if you still love my story :s
