Omake 4 Branded

Hi everyone! It's been a while. I've been spending all my time, as in aaaalll my time reading yaoi manga so I couldn't make all the updates on my other stories. And they need to be updated. I'm sorry for those who have been waiting for the updates. I'm really really really – ugh – just kill me now.

Anyways. Thanks for putting up with all the crap. Hahahaha.

This little one shot came to me suddenly and I think if I don't write it I'll get too lazy to even make a start. So. Hope you enjoy it. It's all nonsense still. Hehehehe. This is what it has become after reading all those yaoi manga for weeks nonstop.

Again, HInata is sooooooooo OOC.

Branded

Sasuke was pissed. As in super pissed. He only had gotten about an hour's worth of sleep because he was getting ready for a major exam in his class, reviewing his notes until almost three in the morning. Now it was three fifty am, and he could feel a hand wandering down his stomach with the sole purpose of copping a damn feel.

Sasuke wanted to elbow his jerk of a boyfriend in the gut but based on Naruto's even breathing he was still asleep. Even in his sleep all he could ever think of was doing perverted things to Sasuke.

Sasuke growled deep in his throat when the large hand wandered even lower, slipping inside his boxer shorts. Naruto was sleeping spooned behind Sasuke so he had all the advantage to run his hand up and down Sasuke's front.

"Uhhhmmm, baby… Wanna stick it in you…" Naruto murmured in his sleep.

Sasuke knocked Naruto's arm away. "You're not even awake, you shithead. Lemme get some sleep."

"Just one round, love." The hand was back.

"Shut up! I'm trying to sleep here."

"But Sasuke…" Naruto whined, rubbing his growing erection against Sasuke's butt.

The Uchiha flinched. "We just fucking did it hours ago. I'm beat."

But as always, when the mood took him, nothing could ever sway the hard headed blond. On pure instinct, as he was only half awake, he moved closer and nipped the tip of Sasuke's ear. "Please…" he whispered huskily.

The heat of his breath and the pain pleasure of the bite sent a shiver down Sasuke's spine, turning him on in a heartbeat. The only problem was, he was really tired, and he needed to get up early to attend a study group before their morning class. Their exam week was coming. It meant a week of exams in all his major subjects. Naruto's had just not come yet, since he had different schedules and all and he was given a few considerations because he was a school athlete.

Why couldn't Naruto understand when enough was enough?

Gritting his teeth in annoyance, Sasuke got out of the bed. "I said I'm tired. You know I've been preparing for my exams. Why can't you understand that, you dummy?"

Naruto yawned, rubbing his eyes. "Hey, where are you going?"

Sasuke took his pillow and moved to Naruto's old stiff bed, the one that had been unused for months now since they started sleeping together. It didn't even have a bed sheet but Sasuke totally ignored that fact. He was weary, both physically and mentally, due to long hours of studying and repeated sex sessions with his insatiable lover. His body just wouldn't be able to take another round of pounding at the moment.

Sasuke lay on Naruto's unmade bed. "Just let me rest, will you? Not everyone has the same stamina as you do."

"Awww, Sasuke… I miss you already…" Naruto wailed sleepily.

"Tsk! Don't you dare come near me, jerk. I'm trying to get some shuteye."

Naruto began grumbling low in his throat, as he massaged his half hard shaft. "Fine. Goodnight."

Sasuke buried his head on the pillow, determined to ignore his boyfriend sulking. After a minute both boys were snoring in bliss.

Xxx

It had always been like that. Naruto's sex drive was just – just – so over the top that Sasuke sometimes wondered if he was really human.

Hinata was part of this morning's study group and she couldn't help but notice how worn-out and sleepy Sauke looked, with those dark rings around his eyes. And he kept on yawning every five minutes. After the study session as they were going back to their classroom she nudged him on the arm. "Why so gloomy? You look so sluggish."

"Hrrrmph!" he simply snorted.

Hinata giggled. "Are you getting much more than you can take?"

Sasuke glared at the little imp. "None of your business!"

"I meant the pressure from the exam, Sasuke! What were you thinking?" she chided, to which she earned another dark glare. "Okay, I'm kidding. I was definitely hinting about sex."

Sasuke squared his shoulders and walked faster, hoping to outrun the noisy busybody beside him. Didn't Hinata have better things to do than stick her nose in somebody else's private sex life?

"Wanna talk about it?" she nagged. "I'm a good love counselor, you know."

"Shush it. I'm not in the mood," he scoffed.

"When have you ever gotten in the mood, anyway? Geeze, I wonder how such a cheerful person like Naruto puts up with you anyway," she retorted, heaving out a long sigh.

Sasuke stopped on his tracks, turning to the dark haired girl beside him. "What do you know about him, huh? You're one to talk!"

Hinata rolled her eyes heavenward, glaring back at Sasuke. "I just know that he's the most adorable person around. He's funny, he's nice, he's sweet, he's – "

Sasuke lashed out angrily, "He's blatantly selfish! He's pig headed. He doesn't care about others' feelings! He only thinks about – about fulfilling his own needs, not minding a bit if I was tired from studying for my exams. He doesn't care. He only wants to screw me all day and all night like I'm sort of a machine who can take it however much he can give it! I'm sorry if I'm a bit annoyed, okay? My body's not made of iron, you know?"

Hinata's mouth dropped. "Uh oh."

Sasuke scowled some more at her. "Yeah. Now you go 'uh oh' on me."

"No, I mean, uh oh. Behind you, idiot."

"What the – "

Sasuke turned behind him and gasped. There Naruto was standing with a crestfallen look on his face. It was apparent he had just rounded up the corner and from his stunned expression it looked like he had heard everything that Sasuke said to Hinata.

Sasuke blanched.

Him and his big mouth. He was still pissed at Naruto, alright but he didn't want Naruto to hear him bitching about his lover's so-called selfishness in the sack.

Naruto stepped backward and made a move to walk away. Sasuke cast one last baleful look at Hinata before dashing to follow his boyfriend.

"Naruto, wait – Let me explain. What did you hear? Hinata was just – was just – "

"I'm sorry,"Naruto called out, not stopping from walking. "I'm sorry if I've ever hurt you."

"Hey, wait up! Your strides are too long, I can't keep up with you."

Naruto suddenly stopped and turned, coming face to face with a panting Sasuke. "Then maybe you shouldn't. I'm sorry if I'm too much for you. I didn't know. I'm sorry that I – "

"Will you stop with the sorry, baka? I said it's fine. It was just some random thought that popped in my head! Nothing changed. It wasn't even important."

"It is if it's getting in the way of your studies. And I'm sorry if I was too slow to realize that."

"Jeeze, don't make an issue out of what you heard okay? Hinata was just really annoying the shit out of me. It was just a – a – "

Naruto squeezed his boyfriend's shoulder gently. "Gotta get back to class. You, too. See you later, okay?"

And with that Naruto walked away, leaving Sasuke gaping after him.

Xxx

Hinata poked Sasuke by the arm again. "Hey, I said I'm sorry. I didn't mean to nag you like that to the point of blurting out your deepest darkest secret in the middle of the hallway you know?"

"Shut up, I'm trying to eat!"

Sasuke and Hinata were sitting side by side on the bench by the school grass. It was during their lunch break. A lot of student hung out in this area during lunch to eat.

Sasuke concentrated on finishing his burger, still feeling edgy about what happened with Naruto back there. Everything he said was below the belt of course. Sure that was how he felt, that Naruto really didn't know the word moderation when it came to sex, but if Sasuke was having problems with it then the best thing to do would be to deal with Naruto himself and talk it out with him. Naruto shouldn't have found out his feelings in that manner. It was really hurtful.

"Hey, look. Isn't that your boyfriend? And he's with a girl!" Hinata said, nudging Sasuke.

Sasuke almost choked on his food, turning to where Hinata was pointing. And sure enough, Naruto was just sitting down on a faraway bench with some brunette. Sasuke wouldn't really say he was the jealous sort over some girl who would sit and eat beside his boyfriend. He was the level headed type of guy. He would only get jealous, say, if he would see that they were actually flirting. But eating together? That was just normal between classmates.

Sasuke turned back to eating, unconcerned. Hinata was the one who had her panties in a twist. "Why's he eating with a girl instead of you, huh?"

"Tsk. You're so noisy, Hinata."

"Shouldn't lovers eat together during lunch break? But instead, he's eating there with a girl! Shouldn't you take action?"

"In case you hadn't noticed, I am also eating with a girl," Sasuke replied drily, as if he was talking to a five year old.

"Well it's different," Hinata mumbled with a pout.

"What is?"

"Uhhhmmm, you're the uke, right? So that means you have, like, the female role in the relationship. Wouldn't really matter if you hang out with another female like me," Hinata pointed out nonchalantly.

Sasuke almost choked on his food again, getting some on his nose. "The fuck are you saying?! What uke? What the hell do you mean female role? Do I look like some girl to you?"

She nodded eagerly, to Sasuke's consternation. "Isn't your ass the one that's being entered during sex? Of course you're the girl!"

At that point Sasuke was really thinking of choking Hinata to death. He couldn't imagine how Hinata could deduce all that just by looking at him and Naruto together.

Hinata grinned cheekily. "It's so obvious that you're the submissive one in bed, Sasuke, no matter how tsundere you are. I can't imagine you ever topping Naruto."

"Fuck off, will you!?" Sasuke yelled at her. "I'm really gonna wipe some disinfectant over that slanderous mouth of yours!"

Hinata merely laughed at him.

"Look, they're getting quite cozy." She pointed to Naruto and the brunette.

Against Sasuke's better judgment, he still looked. He knew he shouldn't be swayed by Hinata's teasing, that he had his own opinion when to get rightfully jealous, but in spite of all that he couldn't help but feel a pang of pain as he watched Naruto having a good laugh with some other girl. Rarely did they have lunch breaks together, and instead of texting him to ask him if they could eat together, Naruto just went with another girl. It didn't mean anything, of course, but still.

Maybe he was really acting like a girl so much.

"They seem to be having a lot of fun," Hinata commented.

"Will you quit on goading me? Even if Naruto goes out with another girl or whatever, I trust him. He's always been the faithful type. So be quiet!"

"Oh yeah? Well, after what he heard about your whining about your sex life with him, I don't know. See? You underestimate girls' prowess when it comes to hitting the sack. I understand you're a guy and you have a raging libido, too. But your ass can only take so much, y'know? Whereas a girl… Do you know we can go on and on and on with sex, if given the right stimulation? I mean, we have our own natural lube. We -"

"What are you trying to prove, Hinata?"

"What I'm trying to prove, idiot, is that Naruto is really quite attractive. What'll you do if he gets tired of you 'coz he only gets limited sex with you when he can go at it with some girl like bunnies? He's like a sex machine 'cause he's young. So you should understand that. If you don't give him enough, I don't know, he might look elsewhere. Hey, look at that, I definitely saw her hand caress his thigh."

Sasuke sighed, feeling defeated. In all of his level headedness, the thought of Naruto getting tired of him had never entered his brain. Would that ever happen?

"Hey, Shikamaru just joined them," Hinata said, watching avidly.

Sasuke snorted. "See? You and your dirty mind. It's just a friendly lunch with his friends. I don't know where you get your twisted ideas."

"Whatever, Sasuke. I'm just concerned. Sheesh, if Naruto had been my own boyfriend, I wouldn't even let him out of my sight. And I'd give all the sex that he wants. I still don't know what he sees with a stingy person like you!" Hinata wailed.

To which Sasuke merely rolled his eyes. He had gotten used to the fact of Hinata bitching about her unrequited crush on Naruto. That was all in the past anyway.

Then all of a sudden Hinata and Sasuke nearly jumped off their seats.

The brunette had just lifted Naruto's shirt to his neck and was now openly running her hand on his muscled chest.

Hinata gasped. "OMG! She's groping him! I can't believe that bitch! Right in front of my eyes?!"

Sasuke scowled at Hinata. "Your eyes? You the girlfriend?"

"Oh, I mean… Your eyes. Hehehe… But seriously, she's still touching him. Look, I think she's tweaking his nipple – "

"Fuck this!" Sasuke growled, standing up and hurling his unfinished burger on the bench beside Hinata.

Stomping to where his wayward boyfriend was, Sasuke couldn't help but be spitting mad. So this was it? Just because he had a little spat with Naruto about their sex life, Naruto could just run around letting women touch him anywhere? It was pising off the Uchihas so bad!

It was Shikamaru who noticed Sasuke nearing. And the deadly aura surrounding him.

With an eeeeep, he nudged Naruto who was still speaking animatedly with the girl beside him. Thankfully her hand had left his chest, but his shirt was still lifted.

"Naruto – Sasuke's here."

Naruto started, then turned to where his boyfriend stood. He cringed at the death glare Sasuke was giving him. Consciously, he pushed his shirt downward to hide his skin. "Yo, dude! What's up?"

Sasuke turned his glare to Shikamaru, who understood immediately. "Hey, Saya, I forgot but I need to borrow a book from the Library. Can you come with me for a sec?"

The small brunette, who was even prettier up close, to Sasuke's aggravation frowned. "Eh? You mean, now?"

"Uh huh. I mean, right now."

When the girl still looked confused, Shikamaru gently tugged at her hand pulling her to him. "Bye, Naruto! See you in class… In one piece, I hope."

"What?" Saya asked, clueless.

"Nothing. Come on," Shikamaru prodded, leading the girl away.

Sasuke didn't budge from where he stood, his arms crossed. Naruto scratched his head nervously, grinning like a simpleton. "Hey, it's not how it looks."

"So. You're saying when some girl touches you like that it means it doesn't look like it."

"No! No, uhhh – she was just – uh – giving me pointers to – "

Sasuke counted from one to ten, trying to rein in his emotions. It really woudln't be good if he nagged at Naruto like some sick jealous wife over something like this. And besides, he was really not the possessive type of guy. He let Naruto have much fun as he could. This was really so beneath him – all this doubting and suspecting. Damn Hinata for getting under his skin.

"Forget it, Naruto. Look, I'm sorry. I'm sorry about last night, when I was too abrupt with you. And a while ago, with what you heard. I know I'm – "

The death glare was gone, replaced with a frown on Sasuke's face as he tried to search for words to convey his sincerest apologies.

Naruto stood, squeezing his shoulder affectionately. "Hey, it's nothing, okay. I'm the one who needs to say sorry for being such a selfish bastard who drains you all the time. With your exams and all."

Sasuke looked up at him,brows furrowed. "It's okay. I mean, I was just – being a bitch about nothing. I mean, you can still – uhhhm – act like always and I'll – do my best to accommodate all your – uhhh – demands and – "

Naruto chuckled. "You're so cute when you blush, you know. I wish I could take you here but – " Naruto paused and moved away, sighing. "See, this is the sort of thing that you hate, right? When I always impose my needs on you?"

"No no no! It's perfectly alright!" Sasuke cried out, stepping closer to his boyfriend. "I think – "

"It's okay, babe. I understand. You really need to get some rest. I never noticed how dark your eye bags are. You study so hard, but then that's why I like you so much. Because you are very responsible. Don't worry, love. I won't try to disturb you tonight. You can count on that."

"Okay."

"And your birthday's in two weeks. Consider this one of my gifts to you then, so you can concentrate on your exam. And oh, what other gift do you want, huh?"

Sasuke shook his head. "Nothing. I don't have anything particular in mind."

Naruto sighed again. "Yeah, it's so hard to give a gift to someone who already has everything. I mean, you can buy whatever it is you really really want."

"I really don't care even if you don't have a gift. Just – I just don't want to fight – with you."

"I'm not cheating on you, love. Nor was I flirting with Saya."

"I know. I trust you."

Naruto smirked. "Is that why you came stomping here looking like you were about to roundhouse kick me into oblivion?"

"I wasn't – okay, fine. I was a little jealous. But I – couldn't help it, with how she was – her hand all over you and – " Sasuke bit his lip in agitation.

Naruto stepped even closer to him, until they were indecently close to each other, in the middle of broad daylight. "I'm not cheating, okay? We were just having a conversation about something."

"About what?"

"Hmmmm. You'll know soon enough. Just remember, I'm not thinking of cheating on you, alright?"

"Okay."

As they said their goodbyes and went their separate ways, Sasuke felt as if he had the best boyfriend in the world.

He really loved Naruto. As in.

Xxx

Sasuke was beginning to doubt Naruto's love for him in the coming days that followed though.

When Naruto said he wouldn't disturb Sasuke's studying, he really meant it. Why this would be the fourth day that Naruto had not even tried to touch Sasuke at all!

Sasuke had thought it was an impossible thing for Naruto to pass up chances of groping him but it looked like Naruto was hanging in there pretty good. Why, at night when they lay together, instead of being all over Sasuke he would be sleeping soundly, his back turned to his roommate. No more waking up in the middle of the night to feel Sasuke. No more flirting during the day when it was just the two of them in the room. No nothing.

On the fifth night, Sasuke was almost livid with worry. Was something wrong? Why wouldn't Naruto just even hug him like he used to do all the time? Now, all he got was kisses on his temple right before Naruto went to sleep.

If not for the fact that tomorrow was his exam, and he really needed a good night's sleep, Sasuke would have confronted his lover there and then.

But, wouldn't he look stupid?

Sasuke had always been the one warding off Naruto's sexual advances in the past. He usually acted pissed whenever Naruto forgot himself and groped him. If Sasuke would make demands on sex now, where would his pride be?

He couldn't just crawl under the covers and beg Naruto for sex. He wasn't as undisciplined like that. Sex was a natural thing, one should always go with the flow. He didn't like wheedling it out of his partner.

Sadly, Naruto didn't even seem looking at him these days. At school Sasuke would still find him having gleeful conversations with this Saya person. And Hinata was getting on his nerves for always telling him he was being played while he let it.

Sasuke was really really annoyed.

Damn if he did, damn if he didn't.

Would Naruto say that when Sasuke was the one to initiate sex this time? After all he only said moderation. He didn't say he was okay with not having sex forever.

Naruto you big idiot!

What was he going to do? He looked at Naruto's sleeping form, listening to the soft snores. Sasuke's exams were tomorrow. It was already one in the morning. He should get some sleep.

Turning off his study light, Sasuke kept all his stuff away and crawled under the blankets. It had been too long since he breathed Naruto's scent. He missed it terribly. He missed Naruto's heavy weight atop him, pinning him down into breathlessness. He missed Naruto's girth between his thighs, his hard flesh inside his body…

Aww fuck, he was getting horny. It was normal, right? It had been five days! No sex, not even French kissing! Surely a young healthy boy like him would go mad with need as well?

Sasuke huffed in annoyance, spooning behind Naruto, his hand snaking gently around the big body towards the blonde's chest. Naruto was sleeping bare chested, like he had been doing for the last five nights.

Sasuke ran his open mouth at the back of Naruto's neck, hoping Naruto would wake up so crazed with lust that he would just pound Sasuke into the mattress with no words between them. It would be too embarrassing if Naruto asked why Sasuke was initiating the sex now when he couldn't seem to stand it before.

Sasuke was panting heavily, rubbing the front of his boxers against Naruto's tight beefy ass. His hand went lower, cupping Naruto's prick.

Naruto reacted as if somebody hit him. He shot out of bed, clutching at his crotch, muttering curses. "Owwww… Fuck fuck fuck!"

"Naruto? Did I – hurt you?"

"Uhhh – no. I – uhhh – I need to go to the bathroom." With that he dashed away, leaving a stunned Sasuke behind.

The poor boy was so surprised with Naruto's reaction that he felt the weight of the world crashing down on him. What was wrong? He went to the bathroom, knocking. "Are you okay in there?"

After a few minutes, the sound of running water stopped and out came Naruto, his face flushed, his chest heaving with labored breathing. "Hey, sorry… I told you I would try my best not to disturb you and I know it's your exams tomorrow…"

"What do you mean? I was the one who was – uhmm – what did you do in the bathroom anyway?"

Naruto smiled sheepishly. "I kinda jerked off."

Sasuke almost screamed at him. "You fucking whaaaaat? Why did you need to do that for? Get a clue, dammit! I was the one groping you!"

Naruto had to step back. "Ehhh? But I thought you said you didn't want me to – uhhh – "

"Bakero! I didn't say for you never to screw me anymore! Geeze! Fine. I'm horny. So I'm telling you to fuck me tonight!" Sasuke demanded, crossing his arms on his chest.

Sasuke thought Naruto would be overjoyed that he finally demanded for sex. Boy, was he ever so wrong about that.

Naruto's face fell. "Uhhh – Sasuke…"

"What? I wanna FUCK! Now. Get on the bed."

Naruto looked even more worried. "I'm not – uhhh – I'm not in the mood right now."

Shock. Complete and utter astonishment!

Sasuke thought there was never a more shocking statement of the century than that. Naruto, not in the mood for some loving. What universe were they living in now?

Naruto walked past Sasuke, sitting slowly on his bed, not on their bed. "Sorry. I was just – uhhm – didn't you say you didn't want me having too much sex with you?"

Five days. It was already five days. That wasn't too much now, was it?

Sasuke snorted and plopped down on their bed, hurling Naruto's pillow at him. "Fine. Go sleep, there, moron. I don't even want to see your face right now."

He lay down and covered himself with the blankets, hoping that Naruto would come back and woo him, just like always. But this time, Naruto stayed on the other bed, also lying down to sleep.

Sasuke groaned. What was happening?

Could this be it?

Could Naruto have gotten tired of him already?

Xxx

Hinata kept nodding her head, lost in thought.

It had been after their class. Thankfully First day of exams was over. Sasuke thought he did pretty good. He remembered all the questions from his reviews so he was really not that worried about it at the moment.

Right now, it was Naruto who was driving him insane. The nerve of that guy to pass up a chance of having sex with him!

Fuck it, was he having an affair?

Again, despite his better judgments in life, he found himself pouring out his woes to none other than busy body Hinata who absorbed everything like a piece of hot dark chocolate cake.

"First time he denied you, huh? Ouch, that stings."

"I really want to bang his face on the wall, that idiot!" Sasuke muttered, clenching his fist.

"Well, at least you're getting a taste of your medicine."

Sasuke bristled even more. "Shut up, you hag! When you go from having sex seven times a day to zero in five days, you really can't compare us in that context."

Hinata made some choking sounds. "Whoa! Seven times? In a day?"

"Everyday. Nonstop. Since the time we got together. Sometimes even more. Now why should I be worried that Naruto is acting all uninterested when it has been five days of nothing? You said you're a good love counsel. Now, explain it to me!" Sasuke lashed out.

To which Hinata just backed away. "Wow. You weren't kidding when you said he has needs, huh? I'd probably walk with a limp if Naruto was my boyfriend."

"Shut up. I didn't ask you to imagine things. I said, explain it to me."

"Well, fine! I don't know! It's really uncharacteristic of him. The only thing that I can think of, is, you know? The usual. He found someone else he might be interested in more than you. But you said he's the faithful type, right?"

Sasuke had been contemplating on that as well since last night but to have it reiterated was another hard blow to his chest. Could Naruto really have found someone else he was more interested in screwing? Was it a girl? Or another boy?

"And speaking of… Look! Naruto is with that Saya again!"

Sasuke watched as Naruto and the small brunette walked together on the hallway, looking all chummy like, as if they were so comfortable with each other. So familiar with each other.

Sasuke felt a stab of pain in his chest. After all this time, all the sex, all the challenges they had to overcome in their relationship, he would lose to this slip of a girl who probably barely knew Naruto at all.

What a fucked up life.

Sasuke put his hands on his pockets and stormed away, leaving for home. He wouldn't stick around and watch Naruto with some chick who had lovely bits he would never have.

If Naruto suddenly decided girls were much better in sex, and in everything else, then he could just do whatever he wanted!

And his birthday was coming up in a week. Great present, this.

Sasuke walked briskly away from the school, towards their dorm, where he could wallow in self-pity.

Xxx

When Naruto stepped into the room, he was surprised that the light was not on. Was Sasuke not home? It was already seven in the evening.

He turned on the lights.

The first thing he noticed was the covered plate on their low table, which meant as always Sasuke had prepared dinner for him. Only for him, not for two. Did that mean Sasuke already had dinner?

A figure covered in blankets was lying on the bed. Naruto walked in and closed the door. Sasuke's second day of exams was tomorrow. Shouldn't he be doing some reviews? Why was he sleeping so early?

Naruto sat on the bed, gently shaking Sasuke by the shoulder. "Baby, are you asleep? Have you had dinner?"

"What's it to you?" Sasuke bit back, his voice hoarse.

"Haaaa?" Naruto squeaked. "What do you mean?"

"You don't even care about me anymore, so why do you need to ask? Just go back to that Saya girl!" the forlorn Uchiha grumbled.

Naruto let out a sigh and stripped the blanket from his roommate.

Sasuke yelped. "Hey! Get lost."

"What's all this that you're saying? Why are you bringing up Saya again? I told you I have nothing going on with her."

"Shut up. If you're breaking up with me, I'd rather you do it now than delay it. I deserve that, at least." Sasuke's face was buried on the pillow so his words were muffled.

But the weight of them was clearly not lost on Naruto who was so startled he had no choice but to grab Sasuke by the shoulders and forcibly haul him up. "Whaaaaat!? Break up with you? Why would I do that? Sasuke? Were you crying?"

Sasuke hid his face on his arms. Indeed, he had been crying his heart out the moment he came home from school. The tears didn't stop even as he was preparing their dinner. How could Naruto think of dumping him just because he wasn't getting that much sex?

And last night! Wasn't it Sasuke who even propositioned him? But was it too late because he had found somebody else?

Sasuke sniffed. "You're already tired of me, aren't you? That's why – That's why you don't touch me anymore."

Naruto gaped, disbelief written all over his face. "Tired of you? Why? What – "

"Last night. I asked if we could fuck and you said you were not in the mood. Have you found someone else, then?" Sasuke asked brokenly, his eyes watering again.

Naruto's hold on his boyfriend loosened, until his hands fell on the bed. Sasuke cringed. This was it. If Naruto continued being silent then it was as good as him saying yes, right?

"Oh, you just can't wait until your birthday, can you?" Naruto suddenly said.

Sasuke's head shot up. "Huh?"

Naruto took that chance to grab Sasuke's face with both his hands and kiss him soundly on the mouth. Sasuke struggled at first, but it was much more of a reflex thing, rather than resistance.

After a second, Sasuke happily wound up his arms around his boyfriend's neck, opening his mouth so he could accept Naruto's tongue, demanding to get in. He sucked at that tongue. He so missed the taste of Naruto's mouth, the heat of his breath, the scent of his body that instinctively, before he knew it he was pulling down Nauto to him, towards the bed.

Naruto came with him willingly, until their stomachs rubbed against each other and Naruto had to move back.

"What?" Sasuke gasped.

"Okay, before you accuse me again of not wanting you and some other crazy stuff, I'm gonna explain it now. It was supposed to be your surprise birthday gift, you know. Now it's a week early. And frankly, I don't know if I'm healed enough to have sex with you at this point."

"What? I don't understand."

"I'll show you." Naruto kneeled on the bed, straddling Sasuke's form. The blond boy stripped off his shirt and jacket. Next he slowly unbuttoned his cargo pants. Sasuke hadn't really noticed it but lately, Naruto had been avoiding wearing jeans. If not a pair of soft slacks, then he would opt for cargo pants.

Naruto looked down at his lover, smiling cheekily. "I know it's really cheesy. So promise not to laugh at me, okay?"

"Just show me!" Sasuke demanded, his eyes glued to Naruto's stomach.

Naruto unzipped his pants, reveling his black boxers. Then with deliberate slowness, he moved his pants and boxers down. Sasuke thought Naruto was going to show him his cock.

Which was no problem at all.

But –

Naruto's hard cock sprang free. It was so obvious that he was seriously turned on at the moment. His face was a mask of pain. "That's why I've been avoiding touching you these past few days. If I get an erection it hurts when it rubs on my new – "

Sasuke gasped, his hand flying towards his mouth.

He was looking at Naruto's underbelly. Right behind his lovely cock waving around.

There were black old world tribal letters inked on his skin.

Property of Uchiha Sasuke.

Naruto chuckled. "I got inked the day you found Saya and me on the park. So, it has been six days ago. It's still healing and it hurts like hell when you touch it. Especially in the morning when I get morning wood, y'know. I wake up and have to quickly take care of business. But it's neat huh? Saya's a tattoo enthusiast. She was the one who referred me to a good tattoo artist. She was also giving me pointers on how to take care of it while it's healing. The day you found her touching my chest, she thought I would have my tattoo placed on there. But it's kinda embarrassing to tell her where I would want to put it. Looks kinky if it's on the loins huh? Right behind my cock. It's like a tag. That – I'm all yours."

"Naruto…"

"Plus it's a good excuse coz you've been nagging me to stay away from you during your exam week, so I thought it would be a good time to get a tattoo here. But, sadly, since you can't wait for your birthday surprise, here it is. Happy birthday, love. I can't think of a gift to give so I just thought of branding myself with your name. Do you like it?"

"You fucking jerk! You scared half of my life away from me, dammit!" Sasuke sat up and grabbed Naruto by the thighs, burying his face on the side of Naruto's hip. "I thought you didn't want to touch me anymore!"

Naruto patted the top of his boyfriend's head. "Tsch. That's one thing that'll never ever happen. You're the hottest thing that has ever happened to me, y'know? It was actually really hard to be sleeping next to you doing nothing. Especially last night when you rubbed against me – I had to jerk off to pipe it down. I'm supposed to show the tattoo to you on your birthday. I'm sorry if my actions led you to think of unnecessary things. Just trust me when I say I love you. I love you and I'll never think of looking at anyone else."

"I love you, too, Naruto, so very much. And this thing here, looks really uncomfortable." Sasuke shyly reached up to wrap his hand around Naruto's already leaking member. "I know you said we can't have sex because your skin is not healed yet. But I can always do this."

Naruto groaned as Sasuke took his hard flesh into his mouth, careful not to let anything brush with the sensitive skin on his loins.

"Aaah, Sasuke…" He grabbed hold of Sasuke's head with both hands and pumped in and out of his mouth in a slow steady rhythm.

Sasuke happily hummed around his boyfriend's cock, the vibrations increasing the pleasure even more that Naruto was gasping for breath on top of him. "Fuck, you're so good at this. I love you," he cried over and over.

Sasuke was feeling extremely content at the moment, and when Naruto came into his mouth, he swallowed everything. He seldom did that, since mostly when they had sex Naruto would come in his ass. But tonight Sasuke licked Naruto's cock clean of all his juices. He smiled shyly up at Naruto.

"You didn't have to swallow it down, babe."

"I wanted to. Come here."

"How about you? I'll jerk you off, too," Naruto offered.

"It's alright. I know it hurts when you move too much. Just – just hold me, okay?"

They ended up holding each other, lying on their sides, Sasuke's face buried on his lover's neck.

"Naruto?"

"Hmmm?"

"I love you but – "

"Hmmm?"

"If you scare me like that again, I'm gonna hurt you real bad."

Chuckling, Naruto held Sasuke even closer. "It's alright. I don't mind getting hurt if it was you."

"Idiot."

"Your very own idiot."

"I know I keep on saying I can't handle too much sex. But, from now on, let's compromise."

"I understand. I know I can be a handful sometimes. It's just that, you're really hot and your skin is so smooth that when I touch it I can't think of anything else but to screw you senseless."

"It's alright. It's not just my ass, anyway. From now on, I'll make sure you're always satisfied. I'm gonna give you my everything."

"Awww, babe, that's the sweetest thing you've ever said to me."

"That's cause I fucking love you, moron. I love you to death," Sasuke whispered, burying his face even harder on Naruto's naked chest.

"I love you, too, Sasuke. Never will that change."

"I like your ink. I'll have a matching one on my underbelly as well with your name on it."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I guess we're just – stuck. Together. Always."

Naruto kissed the top of his lover's head. "Forever, babe. Forever."

Dinner was soon forgotten as both boys drifted off to sleep.

Xxx

Sasuke looked especially haughty today as he walked side by side with Hinata. There was a smug smirk on his face that he couldn't seem to wipe off.

Hinata poked Sasuke. "Look, there's Naruto with Saya again. Aren't they looking really tight these past few days?"

Sasuke glanced at her. "Leave them be."

"What? Just yesterday you looked as if the world turned its back on you. And now, you're all smiles. Did something good happen?"

"Uh huh."

"What?"

Sasuke grinned. "I just got my property back. And no one owns him but me."

Hinata looked as clueless as ever.

Xxx

There there.

Nonsense and more nonsense. But really sweet nonsense.

I know it's really cheesy and there's not much of a plot.

And Sasuke is acting too much like a girl hahahahahah! I know. Next time I write Sasuke as an uke, he'll be more manly. More of like a SeKe. But well… Just make do of what we have now, okay?

Love love love!
