Wow Minna sorry for being late! I had to upload the whole story in since for some reason it was all messed up and I'm buried under my studies so the fact that I'm updating is a miracle! So I expect a lot of reviews! Do you here me?! I want more! Stop being lazy!

Oh, And thank you so much Kadaj-chan for always following the story and motivating me! Love you!


Chapter 11: Awkward

"Now…Aren't you two friendly!!" Sai said with a wonderful fake smile.

"Ahaha….well, stuff happened." Naruto grinned sheepishly and rubbed the back of his head. Sasuke rolled his eyes and didn't reply to the annoying smiling freak.

"Stuff happens, hah? That's a good answer! Yes…very good answer! It can have many deep meaning." Sai muttered, a hand under his chin and his eyes traveling all over the two beautiful husbands.

"Hah? What are you talking about? The music is loud. I can't hear you." Naruto grumbled and slipped closer to Sasuke, his discomfort showing in his blushing face.

Sasuke glanced at him and allowed him to lean closer to his body. Well, they were kind of leaning on each other from the beginning. They were leaning against many beautiful Red cushions, a soft feather made carpet spread under their feet. The music was so loud that couldn't hear the people standing just a meter away. Wearing their most expensive clothes and jewels, husbands could be seen everywhere, laughing or chatting in group. Sakura really had done her best. Tables were covered by fancy foods, deserts and wines. A group of acrobats were busy at one corner while dancers were moving their beautiful bodies in time with the beat of music. Sakura herself was giggling at a clown. Sasuke had succeeded in finding a place far from her and had insisted that their special seat which was right near Sakura's was too close to the music source and he couldn't handle the volume. Sakura was obviously disappointed but they had promised to come back to her side after the dinner.

That's how they had ended at a distant corner, away from the crowd and their gossip. Though why they had to stick to each other was another story!

"Sai, where is Haku?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Ah, Haku-chan disappeared somewhere long time ago." Sai replied with an amused look. "Probably somewhere with Zabuza."

Sasuke Smirked.

Nauto looked from one to another. He was confused. "What? What's funny?"

"Never mind Naruto-kun. You don't get it anyway!" Sai replied.

"What? What's that supposed to mean?"

Sasuke's smirk disappeared. Indeed. The blond was very dense in these matters. That was going to be troublesome.

"So, putting aside the amusing subject of you two sticking to each other like legendary twins, I have to admit Naruto, this Kimono really suits you!" Sai added with a thoughtful look.

Naruto growled and Sasuke snorted.

"You see the pink color, the way it contrasts with your tan skin.."

"Oh, Sai…will you shut up please? Go away!" Naruto growled and tried to move away from Sasuke to hit him but a Sasuke's strong hold on his arm, pulled him down.

"Don't you agree Sasuke-kun? I think we should buy him more pink clothes!" Sai chuckled and opened an eye .Nauto stuck a tongue at him but turning his head, he was surprised to find Sasuke smirking.

"What Teme?!! Stop smirking!" He yelled and hit his arm.

Sasuke chuckled, his smirking widening. Naruto gaped at him, a full blush covering his whole face. "Wha…YOU TOO? I HATE YOU! GO AWAY!" He growled and pushed him away. Sasuke chuckled again and didn't say anything.

"See? Sasuke-kun agrees with me." Sai said and sipped from his wine.

Naruto glared at him but his glare was immediately replaced by an evil grin. "Hey Sai! Let me tell you something interesting! Do you know at this side of Sasuke-kun's Kimono there is a lovely wide t-" He was interrupted by Sasuke's rather violent pull.

"Sai go away! You're annoying." Sasuke growled and threw a death-glare at the grinning blond.

Sai blinked. "Okk…Then I guess I will go and get myself a piece of cake." He gave them another smile and began walking toward the Desert Table.

"CAKE? SASUKE! I want cake too!" Naruto whined, pulling at Sasuke's sleeve like a little child.

Sasuke pulled his hand away. "Stop it dobe! Why do you think we are stuck together?"

"But I want cake!"

"Don't forget your promise!" Sasuke glared.

"I am not! I just want cake! Are you planning to sit here all night? Sasuke you're too lazy!"

"You are too hyper!"

"Just come to the table with me!"

"No, I refuse. I don't like cake!"

"Damn it, I like cake! You don't eat!"

"I will call a servant over and he will bring you anything you want. Happy now?"

"No! I want to go to the table myself! Sasuke!"

"Tch, dobe you do realize that we have to stick together to cover this damn rip, don't you? No! I refuse!"

10 minutes later Sasuke was being pulled after Naruto like a puppy as he kept dashing from one table to another.

Naruto was happily chewing down his fifth piece of cake when someone bumped into him.

"Watch it dobe!" Sasuke grabbed his shoulder from behind. "Sorry. Someone just…bumped into me." Naruto muttered, looking around. "Weird. They should at least apologize!" He huffed and resumed eating his cake.

Sasuke turned around and stared at the people around the table. They were a few new faces but he knew most of them perfectly. He observed one by one with his sharp eyes but none of them looked suspicious. Naruto was a very popular guy to begin with and fortunately their Harem wasn't very competitive. Sakura has long ago proved that she had no interest in almost all of her husbands so they had no reason to fight over her. He moved closer Naruto. Naruto lifted his head and looked at him with curiosity.

Sakura chose that moment to laugh as loud as possible, emitting a sound close to a shriek and Sasuke wrinkled his face in disgust. Naruto chuckled at his face.

"I can't believe I have tolerated this bitch for all this time." Sasuke muttered, a dark scowl on his face. Naruto gaped at him with widened eyes. "Sa..Sasuke! You aren't talking about.."

"Yea, I am talking about Sakura. Eat your cake dobe. I'm getting tired." Sasuke muttered into his ear.

"Ok." Naruto nodded. Still in shock from Sasuke's previous statement and began placing his favorite deserts into a big plate. How he still could eat this much, Sasuke had no idea.

"Done." Naruto tried to grin. "Let's go sit again." He was feeling a little discomfort. Actually he was avoiding Sakura so much that Naruto was getting worried. He had been like this for a while now and looking at your princess with disgust was certainly not good for an official husband.

'I'm sure he just needs time to get over the whole window incidence.' Naruto nodded to himself and followed after Sasuke who was stomping his way to the other side of hall.

"I'm sure you would like to have a drink with all those cakes." Came a voice from behind Naruto. They both turned around to find themselves face to face with a silver-haired man. He had round glasses and was giving Naruto a very friendly smile, a glass of orange juice in his hand.

Sasuke furrowed his eyebrows and bit down on his perfectly formed lips. Perhaps he had found the culprit!

"Excuse me?" Naruto asked with a big smile.

The man smiled kindly. "My apology. I'm Kabuto. I have always been a fan of you but I simply didn't have the chance to meet you personally."

"Oh, wow! Nice to meet you!" Naruto said with even a bigger smile, his eyes sparkling with the idea of a new friend and reached out a hand towards the other man but an almost painful hold on his arm pulled him away. Kabuto raised an eyebrow at the first husband's action and gave him a smile. Sasuke scowled.

"What? Sasuke!" Naruto whispered and glared at the raven. "What's wrong with you? You're being rude!"

"Stay away from him dobe!" Sasuke growled in a low tune.

Naruto's eyes flickered from the raven's dark face to the man's smiling one. "Why?" He asked with confusion.

"Will you please do what I tell you for once in your life? Remember what happened the last time you didn't?"Sasuke hissed, clenching the blond's arm even more.

Naruto shuddered and gazed at him with shock, worry and nervousness darkening his blue eyes. Sasuke looked back, daring him to resist. Naruto sighed and turned to the man called Kabuto.

"Um, Thanks. Kabuto-san. Maybe later." He gave him a forced smile.

"Of course. Please just accept this." Kabuto smiled back and held the glass in front of Naruto.

"Um…sure. Thank you." Naruto smiled and was about to take the glass when a pale hand slapped his hand away and took the glass.

"Sasuke?" Naruto asked with surprise. The people around them had gone silent long time ago and they were now observing the scene with sharp eyes.

Sasuke didn't say anything. Instead he took the glass to his mouth and calmly sipped from it, his eyes never leaving Kabuto's frightened one. The silver-haired man had paled and his fisted hands were trembling.

Sasuke remained motionless for a minute before giving the glass to the gaping blond. "Here, it's safe."

Naruto took the glass with a shaky hand, his fingers clenching the glass painfully.

Husband's were whispering around them and he was sure in a few moments the whole harem would be aware of the first husband's daring act. It's true that harming the second husband had harsh punishments bit in the first husband's case the sentence of death was the least punishment they would receive.

Naruto swallowed loudly and dropped his head, his bangs covering his eyes. His heart was beating loudly and he could feel a strange fire spreading in his body.

Sasuke had just done the most outrageous act possible. What if…

He bit down on his lips and pulled the raven's hand. "Let's go Teme."

Sasuke allowed the blond to pull him without saying a word, the crowd making way for them.

"Stupid Teme…What if…" Naruto murmured with trembling lips.

"Exactly dobe…what if." Sasuke replied, his face calm and stoic.

"You're such an idiot." Naruto said, his eyes still hidden.

Sasuke's gaze fell on his face. He gazed at the blushing cheeks and the trembling lips for a moment before giving a weak pressure to the blond's hand.

"Says the idiot himself."

Naruto smiled.

…………………………………………………………………………………….

"Sasuke-kun, You are so mean!!!!!!!" Sakura screamed and threw herself at the raven. Sasuke groaned and tried to pull away but failed anyway. Naruto giggled at his frustrated expression.

"I can't believe that you abandoned me! Are you still angry? Meanie! Naruto you should have forced him to come to me sooner!" Sakura whined and began combing Sasuke's hair with her long fingers, her eyes devouring the other man with adoration. Sasuke closed his eyes in an attempt to hide his disgust.

"Aw…you cutie! You're enjoying this! My little kitten."

"Aw…you're right Sakura-chan.." Naruto tried to muffle his laugh.

Sasuke snapped an eye open and gave him an I-will-deal-with-you-later-look.

"Sorry Sakura. I had a headache." Sasuke growled and pulled away from her touch.

"Oh, I see. Poor you! But here, I have something to cheer you up!" Sakura smiled and placed a small golden box in his lap.

Sasuke stared at it like it was some kind of dead animal. Fortunately Sakura couldn't see Naruto holding his stomach from too much laughter.

Sasuke slowly began unwrapping the gift and opened the box with a small click.

Naruto stopped laughing and leaned against Sasuke's back to look at his gift from behind his shoulder.

"Another golden ring. Well, thank you Sakura." Sasuke forced a smile.

"That's not it silly. Push the stone!" Sakura chirped with glee.

Sasuke paused for a moment, a dreaded feeling spreading his chest. She couldn't have…he lifted a pale slender finger and pushed the red stone, a sharp small blade snapping out.

"Hehe, I searched a lot for this. This is a legendary ring. It is said that many husbands have used this to get rid of their rivals." She batted her eyelashes and caressed Sasuke's hand. " And gain the affection of their loved one."

Sasuke stared at her in silence. At her sparkling green eyes. AT her pinkish lips, her flawless skin, her wide forehead and hair perfectly formed pink hair.

And thought about all the times he had embraced this woman, kissed this woman and even….

Naruto's weight had left his back some time ago and he himself was hidden behind Sasuke's figure but Sasuke could hear his shaky breath. Perhaps the blond was going through the same feelings and even worse.

"Thank you Sakura. You are as thoughtful as ever. I have never met any woman like you and I really hope you will remain the one in your kind." Sasuke smiled kindly.

Sakura gaped at him in shock and surprise, her eyes unable to believe the kind expression and his ears repeating the words again and again before a full blush hit her.

"Sasuke-kun!" She screamed with happiness and threw herself at Sasuke.

"Now if you will excuse us, My headache is getting worse." Sasuke stated this time in a cold voice and roughly pulled Naruto after himself. The blond winced but followed him anyway.

"Sas..Sasuke-kun! Sometime later in the night, Can we…damn it, can someone please lower this music?" Sakura yelled with anger when Sasuke apparently didn't hear her and continued his way.

"Tch, he didn't hear me." She whined and sank into her cushions.

"Did you hear that Chyo-Obaachan?" She turned to Chyo, disappointment forgotten. "This was the first time he has complimented me like this."

Chyo whose seat was right beside hers, gazed at her with thoughtful eyes. "Compliment, hah."

"Yes, that was so romantic!" Sakura said with a dreamy look.

Chyo stared at the couple until they disappeared in the crowd. She gazed at the raven's cold face and the blond's fisted hand and her gaze stopped on their entangled fingers.

She shook her head and picked her own glass of wine, her eyes darkened by worry and fear.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"Sasuke, You're hurting me."

"SASUKE!"

"WHAT?" Sasuke yelled and whirled around. His face was so dark and scary that Naruto winced and stepped away from him, his hand still in Sasuke's.

"My hand. You're hurting me." He repeated in a calm voice.

Sasuke's eyes slightly widened as he was hit with realization and he quickly released his hand. "I'm sorry. I didn't realize." He muttered while looking away.

Naruto didn't say anything. He dropped his eyes to the floor and stood a few steps away from Sasuke. They had walked out of the hall but the sound of music could be heard from the distance. None of them was in the mood for party anymore.

Sasuke bit his lip and cracked his fingers to relax himself.

"Sasuke…has she always been like this?" Naruto asked, his eyes still avoiding the raven.

"Yes." Sasuke replied shortly.

"I…I can't believe what she said. Did she really mean it…like that?"

"Yes."

Silent filled the corridor.

Naruto ran a hand through his blond hair, making them messier than before. "Sasuke…"He opened his mouth but paused when Sasuke walked toward him and stood face to face with him.

"What?" Naruto asked with confusion.

Sasuke lifted his hand, the golden ring shining between his fingers and in one smooth motion throw it into a trash can placed near the wall.

"Now, dobe. I'm thirsty. Go get some water."

Naruto stared at him with an open mouth. His eyes darting between Sasuke's face and trash can.

Sasuke sighed and stepping forward, hit the blond lightly on the forehead. "Stop acting like a complete idiot." He said and then smiled.

Naruto's eyes widened before his whole face brightened again.

"Ok." He smiled and turned on hills to go after the drinks.

"And don't call me that Teme!" He yelled walking away.

Sasuke snorted and crossing his arms, leaned against a wall.

"Ahh…mm."

Sasuke's head jerked as his sharp ears picked the voices coming out of a room at the end of the corridor. He tilted his head and narrowed his eyes. He knew that room. It was simply a storage room and was usually locked. But at that moment the door was slightly open, He took a deep breath and began stalking toward the said room.

"Ah…Ah…AHHH."

He leaned against the wall and looked inside. Yes, it was just as he had predicted. Two husbands indulging in a hot and passionate sexual act. He raised an eye brow, his eyes traveling over the moving couple.

It wasn't a very rare sight. Husbands making love was almost a normal act. He turned his head and rested against the wall.

He smiled bitterly. If only Sasuke wasn't the first husband, if only Naruto wasn't the second husband….

How weird, what he had worked hard all his life to achieve, now was such a heavy burden.

Any kind of Sexual relationship between official husbands was strictly forbidden. It was considered the greatest felony and a direct insult to the princess.

Yes, what was considered an everyday act between husbands would bring death to the official ones.

How ridiculous.

Who had made these stupid rules?

Why he had to be bound to them?

Why wasn't he allowed to embrace the one he actually wanted to embrace?

He bumped the back of his head to the wall.

'Naruto.'

He closed his eyes.

He sighed and dropped his gaze to the floor.

'That idiot. How can I even approach him?' He thought to himself.

The sound of footsteps jerked him out of his thoughts. He had completely forgotten the time and place. He cursed with anger. He whirled around and found the blond's shadow moving closer.

"Sasuke? Where are you Teme?"

He was about to stalk towards the blond when the idea hit him. He froze.

"Sasuke?" Naruto whined.

The sounds coming from the room where getting wilder and louder.

Slowly, Sasuke stepped away.

"I'm here Naruto." He whispered in a low tune.

"Hah?" Naruto looked around with confusion. He was sure he had just heard the raven.

"Sasuke? Why are you hiding you idiot! My hands are full you know!" He huffed and stomped toward the direction the voice had apparently came from.

"Sasuke?"

"Oh, so good."

Naruto froze.

"Fa..ah…ahh…faster."

He swallowed loudly. What the hell was that? That certainly wasn't Sasuke's voice. He gulped and stepped closer to the source. The sounds where coming from an slightly opened door. He leaned closer and glanced inside the room.

His breath caught as his eyes widened, his finger clenching the glass in his hands harder.

'Oh my god.'

'They're…'

'They're having sex!' He thought with panic.

One of the men growled and pushed the other roughly against the wall. The other moaned and arched his body against him before wrapping his legs around his waist.

'I…I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't be here.' Naruto's heart was beating so fast that it could jump out of his chest any time.

he couldn't avert his eyes. It was like he was rooted to the place and his feet were simply refusing to take him anywhere else.

'Why are they doing it now?'

"Ahhhhhh…give me more….more." The small man pleaded and began grinding against the other.

'Wow he is really…enjoying it. Are they supposed to enjoy it this much? I thought…'

He gulped again.

He felt an alien feeling forming his body.

Sasuke face flushed in front of his face, his damp hair sticking to his forehead and his cheeks faintly colored from the steam.

his breath hitched, his eyes widened in pure horror.

He turned around and ran away, missing a motionless figure hidden in the shadows.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Naruto leaned against the wall and tried to calm his breathing. He placed a hand over his wildly beating heart and squeezed his eyes closed. He had ran inside the party hall again and the music was as loud as before, drumming in his head.

"Damn it." He cursed and rested his head on the wall.

'I'm going mad! What the hell was that? Why did I…?' He clenched his head with his fingers.

A few husbands gave him curious looks, when he didn't open his eyes.

'Calm down. Maybe you have drank something weird. Yes, that's it. Calm down.' He chanted in his head again and again.

One of the husbands began advancing towards him but stopped when another figure reached the blond first.

"Naruto." A deep voice whispered into Naruto's ear, a strong hand clenching his shoulder.

"AAAHHH." Naruto yelled and jumped away in surprise.

Sasuke raised a questioning eyebrow.

"Sa…Sas..uke…you scared …me." Naruto panted, his face heated and his breathing uneven again.

Sasuke gazed at him in silence.

Naruto looked back nervously. "What?"

The pictures flashed in his head again.

He averted his eyes.

'Why is he looking at me like that?' He thought, his blush deepening.

"What Teme? Say something!" He yelled with frustration.

"Calm down dobe. Can't I just look at you?" Sasuke asked calmly, his lips curling up in a smirk.

If possible, Naruto turned even more red. "What the hell Teme. Don't tease me."

"Whatever dobe. Come! We were supposed to stick together. Remember?" He reminded and grabbed the blond's hand, entangling their fingers and pulling him forward.

Naruto's breath caught and he looked at their fingers like it was their first time holding hand.

Sasuke paused and turned his head. "What? Are you alright?"

Naruto nodded rapidly and started walking. "Let's go get a drink. I seriously need a drink. A strong one."

Sasuke didn't reply and followed the blond in silence.

He smirked in triumph.

'Such a cute dobe.'

'I was right.'

'Just a little more….'

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Sasuke spent the rest of night avoiding Sakura and watching the blond getting himself drunker and drunker.

At first he teased the blond and even filled his glass but slowly his state was becoming troublesome.

"SAAASUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEE….GIMME MI GLASS." Naruto yelled into his ear.

Sasuke furrowed his eyebrows and placing a hand on the blond's face, pushed him away. "No, dobe. You have had enough."

"No, I haf ." Naruto whined and dropped his weight on Sasuke before slipping to the floor.

"Tch. Dobe!" Sasuke growled and tried to pull him off the floor.

"Sasuke-kun. Sakura-sama is calling for you." Sai approached them from behind. " I think you better go to her. She is seriously snapping you know. I will take care of Naruto-kun." He said and grabbed one of Naruto's arms.

"Tell her that I don't feel good." Sasuke glared and slapped his hand away.

"Shall I tell her that Naruto-kun isn't feeling good either?" Sai asked with a blank face.

"Yeah. Do so." And without another world, Sasuke turned around and left the party, carrying Naruto on his back.

…………………………………………………………………………..

"Ufff…you're sho meannnnn Sasu….droffing me like this." Naruto muttered and sank into mattress.

"I should have dropped you harder dobe. You are going to have one heck of a headache tomorrow." Sasuke growled and began searching for a blanket that had disappeared under the pile of trash Naruto had created in his room.

Naruto lifted his head and stared at the grumbling raven. His sight was slightly wavering and some kind of ring was echoing through his head but there was this strange feeling, strange need, that was clenching his heart painfully. He scrambled in his place and groaned in pain.

"Sasuke."

Sasuke froze. There was something in the blond's voice that sent him into an alert state.

"Come to me please."

Sasuke closed his eyes and took a deep breath but didn't move.

"Sasuke." Naruto whined, his voice weaker and sadder.

Sasuke slowly turned his head and gazed at the blond.

At his flushed cheeks and heated gaze. At those plump pinkish lips and flawless tan skin.

He turned his face again and took another deep breath.

No, he couldn't lose this chance simply because the idiot was drunk. Perhaps this was a good opportunity. Isn't it a saying that people are more honest when they are drunk?

He turned around and began stalking towards the blond, his eyes look anywhere but his cute round face.

He couldn't wait for the idiot to understand by himself. He was too dense to begin with. He had no choice but to give him a push.

But before that…he had to make sure! Make sure that the blond at least have a little bit of these feelings. Just a little was enough for him to push their relationship forward but if Naruto would reject him even in this state….

He shook his head and continued his way towards the blond. Finally he lifted his head and gazed at the Naruto again.

He had puffed his cheeks and his eyes were teary, glaring at Sasuke like he was a very mean father ignoring his child.

Sasuke took another breath and sat beside the sprawled blond."What dobe, you're feeling lonely from being dru…uff" He didn't get to finish his sentence since Naruto chose that moment to pounce on him and pin him to the mattress.

"Naruto!" Sasuke hissed with widened eyes.

"Sasuke…hold me." The blond mumbled and rested his head on the raven's broad chest, his hands holding the raven like a favorite teddy bear..

Sasuke's eyes softened at the tune and behavior. "You're such a dobe." He muttered and began running his fingers through the soft silky hair.

"Sasuke…I don't want this. I miss Tsunade and everyone else. I miss the fresh air. I miss everything. I can't breath. I'm lonely." Sasuke fisted his hands as a few drops of tear fell on his chest.

Perhaps his plan wasn't such a good one.

"Teme?"

"I don't know Naruto. I have long forgotten how to miss anything." Sasuke muttered with frustration. He had began to feel dizzy and uncomfortable. He had began to hate himself. Here was Naruto, relying on him like a little child and here he was, harboring these dirty feelings toward his best friend. The only friend he had ever found.

"But were these feelings really dirty?

What was wrong with loving this kind and lovely creature?

He sighed and dropped his head.

"Sasuke…will you miss me…if I'm gone."

Sasuke's eyes widened for a moment before softening back. "Yes, dobe. I will miss you."

"Now that I'm think about it…I wouldn't meet you if I hadn't come here." Naruto sniffled and raising his head, smiled at the raven with his big wet blue eyes.

"I'm glad I came here."

Sasuke's heart began drumming in his chest and slowly, as he leaned forward, all thoughts but the blond man in his arms left his mind.

Blue eyes went wide when Sasuke's mouth pressed against his, his heart speeding up and before he could think, he opened his own and allowed the other to slip inside.

Sasuke tilted his head and shoved his tongue into the other's cavern, running the muscle over his tongue, devouring his mouth as if his life depended on it. His left hand was buried in blond hair while his right fought to bring the other man closer. Eager lips pressed back just as forcefully, the blond's hands encircling the raven's neck and hugging him tightly.

Naruto could feel Sasuke's tongue moving across his lips, the tongue explore the depths of his wet cavern. He let his eyes close and felt himself engulfed in the feelings Sasuke had awakened in him.

Sasuke could never grow tired of this taste. It was purely Naruto. He would never be able to settle for anything else ever again. It would be this taste, or nothing else.

He nibbled on Naruto's lips, tugging them gently. His warm hand slipped under Naruto's Kimono, stroking his abs and caressing the tan skin. With those lips pressed on his and those hands on his hip and stomach, Naruto was slowly becoming dizzy. He couldn't breath properly and his hands were tingling. Sasuke broke the kiss and allowed the blond to breath, a thread of saliva still connecting their mouths before he began to trail wet kisses down the blond's jaw and neck.

Naruto tilted his head, letting Sasuke have more access to his neck as the raven began to suck and nip. He blinked as his vision went blurry. He was feeling so good. So warm. So safe. He didn't want to let go. He wanted this moment to last forever. He wanted this arms to hold him for eternity.

The raven traced his mouth over the blond's cheek before moving to his ear and sucking on his earlobe, his tongue darting in and out of his ear, making Naruto moan. He captured those swollen pink lips again but paused when he felt the blond going limp in his arms. He parted their lips and gazed at the blond, his whiskered cheeks flushed and heated.

Slowly Naruto's head fell back and his breathing became even. Sasuke stared at the beautiful sleeping face. This was the second time the idiot had lost conscious in his arms.

"Dobe." He whispered and placed a kiss on Naruto's forehead.

"Tomorrow…we have to talk."

Now he knew…the little bit of feeling was there.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Sasuke! I have decided! I'm going to help you to become healthy again!" Naruto announced happily, giving a very toothy smile to the raven.

Sasuke stared.

"Who are you? What have you done to the real Naruto?" Sasuke asked, his eyes looking all red and puffy.

Naruto laughed and lunched himself at the raven which failed because of Sasuke's professional dodging skills.

"Tch, Teme you're so cold." Naruto mumbled and rubbed the forehead he had banged on the wall.

"Naruto." Sasuke sighed. You have just got over your hang over and this is the first sentence you spit? Go back to your bed. Apparently you're not well yet."

"What? That's not true! I have been in bed for the whole day! I'm well now!" Naruto yelled but felt dizzy and grabbed his head.

"Hah, Naruto. I'm very annoyed with you right now. First you scream at the top of your lung by seeing my face and then hide under you blanket while shooing me away and now you come spit some nonsense about making me healthy again. Go away. You're annoying." Sasuke scowled and stalked toward his library.

He had spent the whole night waiting for the blond to wake up and to talk to him and Naruto had really rewarded him well with his weird behavior.

"Hah…No…I was just…confusing you with someone else." Naruto muttered and blush.

"What did you say?" Sasuke narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"NO…NO…not that kind of person." Naruto flailed his arms around.

"Then what? A bear?" Sasuke scowled and began advancing toward the blond.

"No…of course not…you don't look like one thought you look very scary right now…" Naruto mumbled and began steeping away from the raven.

"Oh really? Then maybe a boogie monster hah?" Sasuke glared furiously and continued his way toward the blond.

"Why are we circling the room like wounded animals?" Naruto said nervously while putting the tea table between himself and Sasuke.

"Do you have any idea what I went through last time? And you wake up by calling me a monster and shooing me away?"

"I'm telling you Sasuke! I was still drunk and your face right above my head kind of scared me…Ok…wait…wait." Naruto raised a hand and stopped.

"I apologize. Ok! And sorry for the trouble I gave you last time."

Sasuke stopped and crossed his arms. "Dobe I asked you a question this morning which you kindly didn't answer. Do you remember anything from last night…from after you got drunk?"

Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Umm…I remember getting myself a few drinks…"

Sasuke snorted and Naruto glared.

"And then Sai coming over and saying something about Sakura…and …that's it!"

Naruto smiled and threw his hands in the air. "Did I miss something?" He asked innocently.

Sasuke gave a horrible death glare before turning his back and walking to his favorite chair.

"Wow..Sasuke. Why are you so angry. I'm sorry. What did I miss? Why did you say you have been through a lot last night?"

"Nothing dobe. Forget it. There is no point if you remember. IF you don't remember." Sasuke glared. " now shut up."

Naruto gulped and stared at the back of the raven's head.

Actually he had had a very horrible dream last night.

Last night he had dreamed of being in Sasuke's arms. They had kissed, they had touched each other and they had moaned in each other arms.

He felt his face getting hot just by remembering those scenes. He closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

'I'm so dirty.'

'How can I think like this?'

'About my best friend? My brother! It's that stupid couple's fault!' He thought with anger and glanced at the raven from the corner of his eyes. Sasuke was being awfully quiet, simply staring at the wall in front of him.

'Damn it! This is all my fault. Now he is mad at me. I'm so stupid! I don't want lose his friendship. I have to erase these stupid feelings. I 'm thinking like this because he is very beautiful and I admire him a lot.'

He rubbed his temples. 'I'm sure he thinks of me as a brother so I have to prove to him that I feel the same! I have to help him cure his illness.' He thought we determination and walked toward the raven, standing in front of his chair with his hands fisted and his eyes shining with will.

"Sasuke.I thought a lot and I think it's time we do something about your illness. I heard from the doctors that you're not using your daily oil and that can be the main problem. So…" He took a deep breath. "I decided to help you with it! I'm actually very good at massage and stuff like that so…what do you know, it may help." He finished with a smile.

Sasuke stared at him. When he didn't talk even after a few moments Naruto began to feel uncomfortable.

'Could it be…'

"Sasuke please don't take this as an insult. I…I just want to help. You're…You're very precious after all. You're…like a brother to me!" Naruto added hastily.

"A brother?" Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

"Yes." Naruto smiled hopefully.

"Fine." Sasuke said in a calm voice.

"What?" Naruto asked in surprise. He was expecting a little more resistance.

"Fine by me dobe. If you're really good at it, I don't see a problem." Sasuke walked toward a drawer and took the bottle of oil out of it. "Here." He held it in front of Naruto.

Naruto swallowed hard and slowly walked towards the raven before taking the bottle and standing in front of him.

"Well, How do you want me to do it?" Sasuke asked with a raised eyebrow.

"What?" Naruto blushed heavily and stepped away in surprise.

"What I meant is do you want me to stand, sit or lay down?" Sasuke repeated with patience.

"Um…" Naruto gulped. He was feeling like a real idiot. He had suggested this and yet he was acting like a real stupid.

'Get a grip you moron. Calm down.'

'This just proves that I'm right! This is about his health. His health!' He reminded himself and gathered his courage. "You can stand. Anywhere you are comfortable."

"Fine. Then here is good." Sasuke said and without another warning dropped his robe. Exposing his completely naked body to the blond.

Naruto squeaked and jumped away, covering his eyes and blushing to his ears.

"Wha..Why are you completely naked?" Naruto stuttered.

"Because I was just in the shower. What's wrong? Why are looking the other way…brother?" Sasuke said in a very normal voice, like he was talking about tomorrow's weather. But the way he said the word brother, sent a shiver through Naruto's body.

"I see..Ok." He gulped again and slowly turned around, trying hard to control his trembling as his eyes fell on the beautiful pale man.

Naruto settled himself between Sasuke's thighs on his knees. He took a deep breath and opening the bottle, poured a bit onto his palm. Setting it aside, he tried to spread the oil evenly on his hands, making sure to cover the skin fully.

Then he swallowed hard and lifted his head, his gaze colliding with Sasuke's intense one before he finally focused his attention on the limp but perfectly formed and curved member hanging in front of his face.

Sasuke cocked his head to the side with a smirk, fully aware of Naruto's intense gaze on his nude body

"Do you like what you see?" He teased. Naruto's whole face blushed bright red.

"Shut up Teme."He hissed.

'I'm so stupid.' He thought with frustration. ' I'm so embarrassed that I can't even touch him! Damn it. This is my brother. My brother!' He chanted again and again. Naruto's entire body was flushed and he could tell his eyes were watering.

"I'm ready." Sasuke said huskily. Naruto felt shivers down his spine at that sexy voice.

'Shit.' He cursed and slowly pressed the heels of his hands on the other man's firm abdomen. Sasuke hissed and tossed back his head, feeling a shock of pleasure running down his spine.

It felt so good that he felt like he was going insane. Naruto was touching. He was in front of him, on his knees, his face mere inches away from his member and his blue eyes were intensely pinned to his body. He bit down on his lips to muffle his groans.

Naruto swallowed hard and began moving his hands on the pale flawless skin. His lips were parted a bit as he tried to fully concentrate on massaging the muscles under his hands. His hands moved lower and the upper again as the body quivered under his fingers.

He kneaded his thumbs into the skin. He fisted his hands and rolled his knuckles roughly over the knots that he passed.

Sasuke grimaced when he couldn't keep a moan from escaping his parted lips. He heard Naruto make a sharp inhale of breath at the sudden sound before resuming to his work.

Finally he moved his hands to the slightly trembling member and concentrated on the feeling of the warm member

'This is a good sign, isn't it?' He thought to himself happily and for a moment forgot about the nervous feelings vibrating through his body together with the throbbing ones in his lower parts.

Naruto lightly moved his finger in a circle around the trembling member, his fingers encircling the base and tried pumping it gently.

Excitement ran through his body as he felt the member hardening and grew bolder as he felt Sasuke shudder.

'I'm doing it! I know it. I can do this!' He thought eagerly, his fingers moving faster and stronger around the pulsing shaft.

'I can feel the pulse. I can feel it.' He thought with happiness and ran a finger over the pulsing length.

He breathed Sasuke's musky masculine scent in, feeling another throb in his body at the scent.

Sasuke moaned again and bit down on his lips harder than before. He was desperately fighting his body. This was his own plan but for his body to act this lustful and wanton over the touch of this man…he certainly wasn't expecting it. Never in his life he has experienced any feeling this pleasurable and this was only a damn massage! He closed his eyes and tried to fight with his own imagination.

'Not yet.' He thought with desperation. 'Wait a little more.'

His body was getting tense, and he could feel something coming nearer and nearer. The heat at the base of his stomach was tightening more and more, causing him to throw his head back and let the sensations flow over him.

"Sasuke you're hard." Naruto murmured in a weak voice. Sasuke's eyes snapped open and tilted his face, finding the blond's heated face covered by shock and excitement.

"You're hard…it's leaking." His fingers were trembling as they pointed at the throbbing member, pre-cum leaking from the head.

Sasuke groaned. 'This is it.'

"Sa..Sasuke…you're…reacting…this is…you're healed. You're healed." Naruto jumped away, all his other feelings forgotten and his face shining with the idea of the other man finally being healed.

'I did it! I did it!" he repeated

"SASUKE YOU'RE HEALED!" Naruto yelled again and threw his hands in the air as victory. "Sakura! I have to tell Saskura!" He turned towards the door.

"SAKU- " The rest of his sentence was muffled by a hand that roughly clasped over his mouth and jerked him backward.

"Umm..ma..wa.." Naruto struggled in Sasuke's painful hold.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you Naruto." Sasuke whispered with a dangerous voice, his deep onyx eyes looking right into Naruto's frightened blue ones.

"After all, your brother is showing his feelings for you."
