I did it! I'm very proud of myself. Yes, there is lemon in this chapter at the end ... please don't hate me if it's bad, it's my first time doing this so I hope it's good enough! (not to mention this chapter is like ... 7300-ish words ... thats a lot longer than normal for me so that's a reason why it took so long xD)
Chapter 21
"I'm so, so, so sorry!" Takamura deeply bows to the group. He has been apologizing for a couple minutes now. Naruto nervously chuckles putting a hand on the back of his neck not really knowing how to react. "I cannot believe I let it slip my mind. I have completely forgotten about the festival tomorrow. I have to get the temple ready, for it is the main attraction in our celebration. I cannot apologize enough!"
Madara waves him off. "It's no big deal. You have taught them enough over the past five days. We only wanted them to know some basic things to protect themselves against vampires."
Takamura raises himself meeting Madara's eyes. "Are you positive it's okay?"
"Of course it is. Besides, we could help you with all the decorations and cleaning today for the festival tomorrow. It should be fun." Shisui beams looking around at the group. "With all of us it should get done even faster."
"You guys are all too nice. I really appreciate everything."
"We are the ones who appreciate all you've done. This is the least we could do after we came on such short notice, yet you still let us come." Itachi says.
"How could I deny you guys. You all have been so nice to my family and everyone here. Not to mention you saved us from the vampires many, many years ago. Long before my great grandfather was even born. Without you our island would be overrun by rouge vampires."
Obito steps forward. "Well we thank you for letting us stay and we can repay you by helping around."
Takamura smiles with a nod. "Of course. We can fix up the temple first then go into town and give the townspeople a hand. Madara, Kakashi, Jiraiya, Iruka and Kiba. Could you go into the back room and grab the decorations. Saiya will show you the way." Naruto turns to see Kiba grumbling slightly saying how he always gets stuck with Madara. He can't help but laugh. "Naruto, Shikamaru, Sai, Sakura and Sasuke. Grab a bucket and rag from the shed and fill it with water. You will be scrubbing the floors. Itachi, Shisui and Obito grab the brooms for dust. Let's get to it!" Everyone goes the way that is assigned to them getting their supplies.
Naruto grabs his bucket and turns back to Sasuke. He glances around and purses his lips to the side. "Where are we supposed to get the water?"
"There is a water pump on the side of the temple. We could fill it there. It'll be faster than the sinks."
Once they fill their buckets with water they go back to the temple to see all the doors open, the Uchiha dusting all the places that need it. Naruto places his bucket on the walkway and kneels down on it starting to scrub. Everyone else follows his lead doing the same.
Sakura scrubs over to the blond. "So, where did you go last night?"
Naruto's eyes widen, but he keeps them locked on the floor. "Where did I go?"
"Don't play dumb Naruto. I saw you walking down the steps to town with Kurama."
Naruto heaves an inward sigh of relief. She didn't see Sasuke. "Oh, I couldn't sleep well for some reason so I decided to go for a walk. And you know Kurama, he never leaves my side." He nods over to the grass where Kurama was no doubt rolling around. "He follows me wherever I go."
Sakura stares into his eyes then smiles looking back to the walkway. "You're right. That dog is something else. Did you at least have a nice walk?"
"You bet." Then it occurs to him. "Ne, Sakura. What were you doing up?"
"I had to use the restroom. I just so happened to be passing by and saw your hair disappear behind the steps with an overeager dog in hot pursuit. My vision was a little hazy but I was still able to make you out. Hard to miss neon orange pjs." She chuckles.
Naruto puts a hand on the back of his neck with a smile. "Yeah I guess so."
In the back room where Kiba is he is having a hell of a time. He was so kindly volunteered to crawl up into the dusty crawlspace of an attic to retrieve some boxes. He grumbles as he shuffles his way to the bigger area where the boxes are kept. Why they put them up here when the room down below is perfectly fine he will never know. He stands up and puts his hands on his hips looking around. There are quite a few boxes up here.
Kiba runs a hand through his dark brown hair. "Right." He feels something shake beneath him. He scrunches his brows dropping his eyes to where he stands. That's when the hatch he's standing on whips open sending him flying onto the floor. He snaps his head back to the hatch and glares seeing Madara's head. "You knew that was there this whole time, didn't you?!"
Madara brings himself up the rest of the way and walks over to the boxes. "Grab the boxes kid. We have to get this done today."
Kiba's eye twitches. That little. Kiba trudges over to the box and hastily picks it up, proceeding to the hatch and dropping it down to Kakashi who then hands it to Jiraiya who takes it out to the main entrance and Iruka takes his spot. After bringing all the boxes out to the entrance they crack them open pulling out the decorations.
Itachi, Shisui and Obito finish their dusting and go over to the group who is decorating. Itachi smiles eyeing over the items. "Do you guys need help?"
Iruka meets his eyes with a smile. "That would be great."
Itachi glances over to Kiba to see him giving Madara a death glare. Itachi runs a hand through his hair then places it on the glowering teen's shoulder. "What did he do this time?"
Kiba scoffs grabbing the lights that Iruka hands to him. "He made me crawl through a dusty, cobweb, probably spider infested crawlspace to get to the other side of the attic. When I got there he opens the hatch I'm standing on. I didn't have to crawl through the stupid attic. Little..." His voice drowns out into incoherent mumbles.
Itachi laughs slightly patting him on the shoulder. "He pulls shit like that with us all the time. Welcome to the family."
Kiba sighs. "Right."
Itachi smirks giving him a little shove. "You're quite like my little brother when he was your age. He let Madara get to his head. It's best to ignore him. If you let it get to you, it only intrigues him." Itachi grabs some lights and nods. "Let's go hang these up." Kiba gives another sigh before following the Uchiha.
Naruto stands up with a big stretch. He then places his hands on his hips looking around proudly. They finally finished scrubbing the floors leaving them shiny. "I think we did a pretty good job if you ask me."
"We may be done here in the temple, but now we have to go into town and help everyone else. If we finish early then maybe we'll be able to use the hot spring."
Naruto perks up and spins to the raven. "Hot spring?"
"There is a hot spring?"
"It's near the end of town up on a small hill. You guys probably wouldn't have seen it." Sasuke meets sparkling sky blue eyes. "Don't get your hopes up Naruto. We have a whole town to decorate. The hot spring might be closed by the time we're done."
"We can do it!"
"They have to be done nice. You can't just go around haphazardly throwing them around."
"I know, I know. Let's go! We have no time to waste!" Not waiting for everyone else, he runs out the doors and down the stairs to town. He is going to finish before they close if it kills him. Once he reaches the bottom he immediately sees Saiya. "Saiya!"
She turns around a couple times trying to see who called her, then she sees Naruto running towards her waving an arm above his head. Kurama at his heels like usual. "Naruto. You guys finished the temple?"
"Sure did. The others should be down soon." He places his hands on his hips taking a deep breath in and heaves it out trying to catch his breath. "So, what do you guys need help with down here?"
She crosses her arms turning back the way she was looking before he showed up. "I think Iruka and Kakashi could use some help decorating the street lamps. They are just down there then take a left. You'll see them."
"Okay, thanks Saiya." He waves and runs passed her. When he turns the corner he sees the two he's looking for. "Iruka! Kakashi!"
They both glance back and Iruka waves. "Finally done with the floors I see."
He nods with a huge smile. "Saiya told me you guys could use some help, so here I am." He opens his arms wide as if receiving a huge.
Kakashi comes down from the ladder one hand on his hip while the other rests on a step on the ladder. "Good timing. We can't reach the top of the lamp. I need you to hop on my shoulders while I climb the ladder so you can hang these." Kakashi holds up a string. Connected to it is a long banner. "You'll just have to tie this end around the ball at the top of the lamp, then again on the other lamp across the street."
"Absolutely not! He could be horribly injured if he fell. We can just go find a taller ladder."
"I'll be fine Iruka." Naruto chuckles going behind Kakashi and grabbing his shoulders. "I've done things far more dangerous than this. Plus, I have amazing balance."
"Naruto don't you dare."
"I have faith you'll catch me if I do fall anyways. Not that I'm gonna though." He chuckles as Kakashi crouches down letting Naruto on his shoulders.
"Kakashi, put him down!"
"I'll be careful. You don't need to worry." Kakashi smiles grabbing one of Naruto's shins to steady him and starts climbing.
"I am completely against all of this."
The two on the ladder only grin as they make their way up. When they reach it, Naruto carefully ties the banner on the ball. Smiling, he drops his eyes to the man on the ground. "See, I told you we would be fii-AH!" Looking backwards makes the blond lose his balance. He tries grabbing the lamp but he just misses. He tries again grabbing it and yanking himself forward. By doing this Kakashi slips and falls to the ground. Iruka jolts upright and catches him. From Kakashi falling, it makes Naruto twist around the lamp and lose his grip again, falling off the other side.
Sasuke turns the corner just in time to see those idiots struggling. Kakashi falls, Naruto not far behind. His eyes narrow. "That idiot." He sprints and slides in catching him in the nick of time. Thank goodness for his vampire speed. "What the hell were you two doing?"
Naruto opens his eyes and snaps them to black ones. "Sasuke." The blond nervously laughs as he is put down. "We were tying the banner up."
"Naruto, are you alright?!" Iruka rushes to his side grabbing both sides of his face inspecting him. "I told you two it was a stupid idea, but did either of you listen to me? Nooo."
"I'm sorry Iruka. Is Kakashi okay?"
"He's fine." Iruka sighs crossing his arms over his chest.
"That's good." He smiles turning to say something to Sasuke, but something in the distance catches his attention. His smile fades away. It's that man. He's staring at them again. "Guys." Everyone turns their attention on the blond. When they notice he isn't looking at them they follow his line of sight. "Do you see that man in the brown jacket staring at us?"
Iruka nods. "Yeah, so you know him?"
"No, not really. It's just ... have any of you bumped into him at all while we have been here?"
"No, why? Have you?" Kakashi asks coming up next to them.
"Multiple times. I figured he was just a little strange at first and had some kind of problem, but I don't really think that's the case anymore. He's giving me a weird vibe. It seems like he wants something." He purses his lips in thought for a moment. "Maybe I should go talk to him."
Iruka and Kakashi give each other a concerned look then to Sasuke. Sasuke scrunches his brows and turns his attention to the man. Iruka puts a hand on Naruto's shoulder making him look back to him. "Maybe that's not the best idea, Naruto."
"Why not? There is only one way to figure out why he keeps staring at us."
Sasuke turns back to the group. "I don't think he's watching us Naruto."
Naruto arches a brow at the raven. "Why do you say that?"
"Because. I think he's watching you."
Naruto blinks a few times dropping his eyes then looks to Iruka and Kakashi.
"Besides, he could be some dangerous man. We know nothing about the people here on the island. Even if all the people seem kind on the outside, there is bound to be at least one bad person in the group."
"Iruka is right. I say we keep an eye on him, but other than that we stay clear." Kakashi looks to Sasuke to see his input on this.
Sasuke nods. "I think we should stay in pairs for the remainder of the trip. We'll inform the others as well for safety precautions."
Naruto turns his eyes to the direction of the man but he is no longer there. He furrows his brows and his eyes flow around the area. Sasuke locks his eyes on him then follows his stare. His eyes narrow then he looks back to Naruto. "Let's get this done so we can go to the hot spring."
Naruto's eyes instantly widen. All previous thought seemingly wiped from his mind, or at least pushed to the back of his mind. "I almost forgot! Come on let's hurry!"
As they finish up and they met with everyone along the way telling them about the man and the hot spring. Right now the sun is just about to set as they all relax in the steamy water of the spring. Naruto practically melts in it leaning his head back with a wide grin. Sakura and Saiya are the only ones not with them, but they are just across the wall on the women's side. The spring is decorated very soothing. A small gently streaming waterfall flows into the spring in a corner near the separating wall. The water is wide enough to fit everyone comfortably which is good too. Above them is a roof held up on the four corners.
"Man I have been waiting for this all day." Naruto says through a grin.
"We have all deserved this." Kiba sighs sliding his shoulders under.
Naruto opens an eye looking over at his best friend. "So how was your day?" Kiba's expression turns sour and he rolls his head over to face Naruto. Naruto lifts his head arching a brow. "That bad?"
"Bad doesn't even begin to summaries it."
"What happened?"
"Madara is out to get me."
That's when Naruto let a burst of laughter out, but quickly covers his mouth still chuckling as he looks at the aggravated brunet. "Sorry." He snickers some more before dropping his hands. "It's just ... Madara? Out to get you? I don't see it."
"Yeah well, neither did I."
Naruto glances to Madara across the spring then back to Kiba. "So, what did he do?"
"He ever so kindly volunteered me to crawl through a lovely dusty, spider, cobweb infested crawlspace to get to another section of the attic when I didn't need to. He then later sabotaged me when I was on the roof. He took my ladder leaving me stranded and no one was around so I had to jump into a bush- which isn't as comfortable as it seems. He then told me to get the glue for him." He pauses to give Naruto a dead expression. "The container had super glue all over it and it glued to my hand. What is he, 12? Itachi tried to help me when he saw it, but that didn't happen a lot because Madara caught wind of what he was trying and sent him off to do things elsewhere." Kiba rubs his hands over his face. "What did I do to deserve this?"
"Madara is probably just teasing you out of boredom. He most likely realized you are easy to get a rise out of and took advantage of it." Naruto shrugs. "Don't let him get to you." Naruto's eyes flutter to Itachi to see him talking to Kakashi. "So you and Itachi are getting along?"
Kiba turns to him confused. "Yeah, why wouldn't we be? He seems to be the only sane Uchiha here."
He shrugs. "No reason." He meets his eyes and just stares into them.
Kiba scrunches his brows not knowing why he is staring at him. "What is it?"
"Nothin', just thinking."
"Well think looking elsewhere. Your stare is freaking me out."
Naruto grins looking up to the roof. He's probably just imagining things. There's no way it could be true ... right?

Today is the last day, festival day. A day were everyone can celebrate their hard work and just relax.
"I'm so excited! I've only been to one festival before, but I don't really remember it." Naruto bounces where he sits next to Sakura and Sasuke. His eyes widen and he stops bouncing. "Wait, don't we need yukata for a festival?"
"Ah, yes. I have extra for you guys. They're in the storage room, I'll get them once it's time to go."
Naruto's eyes light up and he turns to Sasuke. Sasuke turns his eyes to the blond and grins, he really is easily excited. Once breakfast is over they start cleaning up their mess. Naruto stands next to Sasuke and stares at him.
Sasuke feels him doing this and arches a brow at him. "What is it dobe?"
"Aren't you excited? We get to wear a yukata and go around the town playing games and having fun."
"It should be nice. I haven't been to one of these in a long time." A faint smile rolls onto his lips as he turns to Naruto. "It will be a nice new experience having you with me."
Naruto's eyes widen a little and his face gets slightly red, he then chuckles and puts a hand on the back of his neck. "I'm really excited too."
Coming up from behind Kiba elbows his best friend. "So, you two gonna have sex tonight?"
Naruto dishes slip from his hands nearly crashing to the floor, bur Sasuke saves them from their fate. Naruto snaps his head to Kiba with a shocked expression. "What is wrong with you?"
Kiba snickers, a sinister aura ebbing from him. "It's tradition! Couples always have sex on the nights of festivals."
Shikamaru sighs joining the conversation. "I don't know what tradition you think that is, but it's not real."
"Says you!"
Sai comes up holding a book about festivals that he has been reading since yesterday. "This book says nothing about having sex on the night of a festival. Are you sure it's a tradition?"
"Look at what you did now, Kiba. You've confused poor Sai." Naruto scolds turning to Sai. "Don't listen to him Sai, he's just and idiot."
Kiba scoffs finishing up his dishes. "Mark my words. I'm betting you and pretty boy over there will do something."
Sasuke arches a brow at his new nickname. Kiba cleans up his dishes and Sasuke turns to the blond. "Pretty boy?"
"I know right. He should have said pretty man." Naruto chuckles walking back to the dining room where everyone is standing watching Takamura unpack a box. This peaks Naruto's interest so he decides to join, Sasuke not far behind. Inside the box there are different colored yukata. Naruto's eyes lock on the only orange yukata.
"Here are the yukata. You can have your pick, there's plenty for everyone." When Naruto grabs the orange yukata he unfolds it and grins. It has strange red lines rising at the bottom up to the waist that almost resemble flames. And from where the flames end are little spark looking designs floating up to the shoulders. "Here." Naruto turns his eyes to Takamura. He's holding out a red bandana. "I thought you might want to put this on Kurama for today."
Naruto beams at the idea and gladly takes the item. "Thanks Takamura." He nods and Naruto turns to Kurama kneeling in front of him. "Head up Kurama." He wags his tail lifting his head. Naruto wraps it around his neck and ties it in the back, making sure it's not too tight. "Perfect. It looks great on you Kurama." Kurama jumps on him knocking him onto his back and licks his face. "No! Kurama! I thought we were done with the whole face licking thing!" Naruto wraps his arms around him and wipes his face in his neck laughing. Kurama struggles to free himself but ends up succeeding. Naruto stands up with a grin and looks to Sasuke. He's holding a dark blue yukata that Itachi handed to him. Itachi meets Naruto's gaze and pats him on the back before walking away.

The sun is just starting to lower when they decide to head to the festival. Naruto jumps with excitement seeing all the booths, games, the smell of food, people walking around. Naruto bounces over to a booth not able to wait to ask Sasuke what he wanted to do first.
Sasuke walks up behind him and looks at what caught the blond's attention. Of course it would be food. "Are you hungry?"
Naruto straighten up and looks around. "Yeah, but I don't know what for." Then he sees a cotton candy stand and his inner child rises up. "I want cotton candy."
"Cotton candy. Not actual food that will fill you up?" Naruto nods happily and Sasuke can't help but smirk. "Fine, you can have cotton candy." Sasuke hands the blond some money and he hustles over to the stall and gets the sugar puff. Just what an overactive knucklehead needs. Pure sugar.
They walk around to a bunch of other food booths, and of course Naruto had to have practically everything they have to offer. And as soon as he has all his fill on food, he drags Sasuke to the games. They head over to a game where you have to scoop the ball up with a little paddle, but in the center of the paddle it's a thin paper.
"I bet you I can get more balls than you."
"Hn. Go ahead and try. I have many more years of practice in this game than you."
Naruto jabs his chest with his thumb. "I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I never back down!" He turns and pays the lady. She hands him a paddle and gives one to Sasuke as well.
"Don't cry when I win. By the way, we have one minute."
Naruto barks in laughter. "One minute is all I need to beat you. Let's go!"
The two of them focus on their paddle and not ripping the paper as they scoop the items. Naruto tries to do it swiftly but he has to go slow enough to not break the paper. He snatches a glance at the raven to see he already has ten balls. His eyes nearly pop out of his head and he kicks himself in gear, alas, it is no use. After the minute is up, Sasuke won with a total of 48 to 26. Naruto pursed his lips as they walk away from the booth.
"I tried to warn you."
"I'm not pouting."
"I never said you were."
Naruto straightens himself up. "Pfft. I knew that. I was just testing you." Sasuke just glances to him expecting nothing less.
"Naruto!"
The blond spins around hearing a little girl's voice. "Kara!" Sasuke is taken aback when Naruto actually knows the little girl standing in front of him. How did he meet her? "How have you been?"
"Great! Grandma and I have been taking long walks around the island and I found a shell I want to give you. It's for helping us." She digs the shell from a pocket and puts it in his hands.
He smiles looking at the unicorn horn shaped shell. "Thank you Kara." She nods and glances back behind the blond, her eyes widening. A tall ebony haired man with a stern look on his face is staring down at them. That's an Uchiha alright. Naruto realizes what she's staring at and stands up. "That reminds me. Kara, this is Sasuke. Sasuke, Kara. He's part of the Uchiha family if you couldn't tell."
Naruto chuckles and Kara holds out a stiff arm to the raven. Sasuke's eyes widen ever so slightly. She wants him to shake her hand. He reaches down taking her oddly strong hand. "It's nice to meet you Uchiha sir."
Sasuke blinks a couple times. Uchiha sir? "Likewise."
They drop hands and Kara meets Naruto's. "When are you guys leaving, Naruto?"
"Oh, we're leaving tomorrow actually."
She frowns looking at him with big eyes. "Really?"
"Afraid so. It's been a blast while I've been here though. I wish we could have met sooner."
"Yeah." She drops her eyes to the ground and holds her hands behind her back. She then remembers something. "Oh! I have to get back to my grandma. I ran after you cause I wanted to give you your present." She wraps her arms around his legs in a hug then lets go just as quick running off. "Bye Naruto, Sasuke!"
The two wave watching her disappear. "So," Sasuke speaks up. "what is it exactly that you helped them with?"
"I just saved her grandma's box from smashing into the ground and saving the fragile contents." He shrugs.
Sasuke nods and looks to the sky. It's already getting dark. "Do you want to head up to the temple now? You can see the fireworks best from there."
Naruto snaps his eyes to the raven. "Did you say fireworks?"
Sasuke meets his eyes. "Yeah."
"Yes!" He starts to run then skids to a halt and frantically looks around. "Where's Kurama?"
Now that he mentions it, that dog hasn't been around them this whole time. Sasuke scrunches his brows in thought, then he remembers seeing him run off after Itachi. "He went with Itachi."
Naruto turns to him in shock. "Seriously? I can't believe I didn't notice."
"You were too absorbed in the atmosphere. It's no big deal. Plus, I'm sure Itachi is having a field day with him. You ought to keep an eye out for him. If he gets the chance I'm sure he would snatch Kurama from you." Sasuke smirks strolling on passed the blond.
Naruto catches up to him and they head up to the temple. When they get to the top, Sasuke leads them to a spot where they can see the town and sky perfectly. Naruto is in amazement at the sight. The town is lit up, people walking around enjoying themselves. "How did you find this place?"
"It's not important."
"Temeee, yes it is! Please tell me." Naruto wraps his arms around the raven and rocks back and forth.
Sasuke grumbles to himself and sighs. "Alright, just clam down." He instantly releases and sits patently. "When I was younger we came here as you know. You also know I struggled to stay still. Well when there was a festival, much like this one, there were fireworks. I wasn't able to see them well with all the taller people around so Itachi took me here and watched the fireworks with me. Itachi said I was so captivated by the fireworks I looked like a statue." Sasuke scoffs at the memory and looks to the sky. "I just thought you like to experience it here as well." When Naruto doesn't say anything he arches brow and looks at him. He is staring at the raven with a small smile that sends chills down his spine. "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Naruto shakes his head and watches the sky. "Thank you for telling me Sasuke."
Sasuke arches a brow, turning to the sky again. Naruto leans over and rests on him. "You going to tell me why you have this strange smile on your face?"
Naruto chuckles. "Your story just reminds me of a time my parents took me to watch some fireworks is all. We would all grab a blanket and go to the hill just south of the high school. It always had the best view. We would all huddle under the blanket and relax as we waited for the show to start." Naruto glances up to the raven then back away. "Ne, Sasuke. What happened to your parents?"
"Nothing happened to them."
Naruto sits up and he stares at him in bewilderment. "They're still alive?"
"Yeah."
"What? Why haven't you introduced us?"
Sasuke shudders at the mere thought. "You wouldn't want that. My father is an old school vampire. He doesn't really like humans other than for food. Plus, they don't live near us."
Naruto purses his lips. "Why don't you live with them?"
"Itachi and I left while I was young. He said he wanted to show me a world that didn't consist of the old ways. Our mother thought that was a good idea, but our father didn't. He told that if we left we wouldn't be welcomed back. It's been nearly eight hundred years since then, he still holds a grudge as far as I know."
"Why don't you call?"
Sasuke freezes stiff, turning onyx eye to sapphire ones. "If I called I would never hear the end of it. My mother would constantly call us and my father would probably lecture us."
"You mean you haven't spoken to them in eight hundred years? " Naruto is utterly baffled by this.
"No, nearly eight hundred. I'm seven hundred ninety nine, remember."
"Teme! Your mom is probably dying to hear from you." He pauses. "No pun intended."
"I'll talk to her one day in person." He stops his sentence as a loud boom roars through the sky. They both turn their attention to the sparkling light in the sky as it fades away. Naruto decides to drop the subject and lean back against the raven and just enjoy the last of their vacation.
When the fireworks show is over everyone comes back to the temple. Naruto follows Sasuke in the room after getting ready for bed and Naruto shuts the door. He doesn't turn around as he keeps his hands on the door in thought. During the whole show his mind was swimming. He has finally decided that if Sasuke wants to, he will let him take him. The thought has popped into his head a few times before but he brushed it away clearly not ready, but now he feels is the time.
He nods turning around meeting the raven's eyes. "What are you doing dobe?"
Naruto takes a breath and with a straight face says, "I want you to take me."
If Sasuke had been drinking anything he would have chocked on it. His eyes widen as he stares at the blond in front of him. "What brought this on so suddenly?"
"I have been thinking about it for a little while now. I feel like we understand each other a lot through words, but I want to understand you through your actions as well. I want to be with you Sasuke, that's why I want you to take me. If you'll have me that is."
Naruto swallows his nerves as Sasuke slowly strides up to him putting a hand behind his neck with a smirk. He can feel the blond's wildly beating heartbeat as if it's his own. Naruto tries everything in his power to calm his heart, peering into eyes as dark as the midnight sky. "How can I say no to such a demanding statement." Another hand is brought up to the other side of his jaw pulling him towards the ebony haired vampire. Their lips roughly crash together and with Naruto's heart beating like this it feels just like the first time. Naruto's hands roam up to the back of Sasuke's head. His fingers slip through the silky hair tugging him as close as he can. Sasuke wraps an arm around his waist and spins them around, laying him on their futon straddling his hips.
It's at this moment that Naruto whips his head back against the floor. "Wait." Sasuke stops and instantly gets off him. "What Kiba said this morning was true. Dammit, dammit, dammit!"
Sasuke arches a brow at him not understanding the relevance of it. "Why does that matter?"
"Now I won't be able to get it out of my head. I'll be kissing you and that stupid I-told-you-so grin of his will pop right into my head." Naruto growls and looks at Sasuke. "No! I'm not going to let him overrule my life!" Naruto shoots himself at the raven and kisses him again. Sasuke starts to reach up to his neck to deepen their kiss when Naruto pulls away again with a growl. Sasuke sigh dropping his hand, Naruto covers his face with a pillow and yells into it. Why did he have to think of Kiba at a time like this dammit?! He throws the pillow down and pulls a shocked Sasuke in again only to stop it just as fast. Sasuke heaves a sigh and sits down beside him. "I'm sorry Sasuke. I swear I'm not doing this on purpose." He stands up and shakes himself out, slapping his cheeks. He takes a seat back beside Sasuke. "Okay."
Sasuke glances to him out of the corner of his eye. "You sure?"
The blond nods and Sasuke leans in catching his lips one more time. Naruto runs his hand up his back and up to his hair. He then cringes and yanks away hitting himself in the head with his palms. "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Sasuke's eye twitches as Naruto glances to him. He has a very displeased glare on his face. His eyes widen. "S-sorry, Sa-" Sasuke doesn't let him finish that sentence. He slams him onto his back crashing their lips together, slinging his legs on both sides of the blond's hips. Cold hands running up tanned sides, the blond's heart thumping faster with every passing second. Sasuke pushes his tongue into the other's mouth, exploring every inch. Naruto's breath hitches as the raven grinds up onto him.
He reaches for the hem of the raven's shirt and when he finds it he pulls at the fabric. Sasuke get's the hint pulling away from the blond letting him take a breath as he rips his shirt off and Naruto's following not long after. Naruto then raises his hips into the raven causing more friction between them. The vampire growls at the clothing separating them and deftly unbuttons the blond's pants sliding them off, along with his own. Underwear leaving their owners as well.
Subtracting the clothes from the equation Sasuke can now feel everything that the blond is offering. Sasuke runs his hand down tanned abs and when it reaches it's destination, he grabs Naruto's now hardened length. A gasp escapes his lips and curls his toes.
Sasuke trails his lips over to Naruto's neck, connecting with his warm skin. He can feel his blood pumping wildly inside him. The adrenaline coursing through each vein. He licks the soft part of his neck as he slips his fangs from his gums and slides them through the blond's warm flesh. Naruto let's out a groan rolling his head to the side and slightly shudders at the pain. He can feel his blood leaving him, but the pain slowly subsides only to be replaced by a favorable feeling. Ecstasy. A low moan escapes from deep in his throat, pulling Sasuke closer. Sasuke removes his fangs out and wipes the blood from his mouth, releasing Naruto's member.
Naruto opens heavy eyes to meet glowing red orbs. "W-what did you do?"
"I injected intent into you to make it pleasurable for you as well." Sasuke meets his lips again and gradually slides his hand down over the blond's stomach and over to his outer thigh. He pulls away gazing deep into his eyes. "Are you ready?" Naruto takes a few heavy breaths and nods. Sasuke brings his hand to his mouth, wetting a few fingers. He places a kiss on the other's jaw, leisurely traveling down to his collarbones then stomach. Naruto's breath catches slightly, heart beating faster the further down Sasuke gets.
The raven puts a hand on Naruto's knee placing a finger over his entrence gently inserting one finger. Naruto tightens his muscles out of reflex at the foreign object now in him. Sasuke moves it around for a little while to let his body get used to it. Once he loosens again, he slips another in. Naruto hisses from the pain and bites his lower lip digging his heels into the bedding. He just has to get used to it.
Sasuke glances to his face to see him with a twisted expression. "Do you want me to stop?"
Naruto furiously shakes his head. "No."
Sasuke moves his fingers around making Naruto wiggle slightly, willing his muscles to relax. He breathes out as his nerves respond to the stretching. The need of desire shooting through him down to his groin, now twitching with pleasure. Sasuke pulls both fingers back before letting the third join them. Now that one hurt.
"Ah! Shit." Naruto growls, grabbing the blankets in his fists, trying his best to be as quiet as he can, but it's a lot harder than he thought. Sasuke leans up over him connecting their lips, fingers slowly stretching his entrance. Sasuke removes his fingers once he deems him ready and places his hips in-between his legs, hand on Naruto's hips. He slides the tip in and Naruto instantly cries out, but Sasuke crashes their lips together to muffle the noise. He stays still for a moment then gradually slides in deeper. Naruto curls his toes, throwing his arms around his neck deepening their kiss. He grips some of the ebony hair and bites Sasuke's lip as his body grows hot. Sasuke groans and Naruto releases the abused lip.
Sasuke slowly pumps himself into Naruto, lowering his head beside the blond's. Naruto's flushed cheeks press together with a porcelain one. Sasuke places nimble lips on the nape of his neck sucking slightly. Naruto bites back a moan. Naruto focuses on Sasuke's consistent thrusts and finds himself moving his hips along with him.
Sasuke lets a growl out as he tries everything in his power to stay gentle, but the blond under him is making it increasingly harder by the second. His instincts are edging in making him want to dominate the hell out of him. His deep voice moaning in his ear. His warm tanned skin against him. The sweet scent ebbing off him. His half lidded cerulean eyes practically screaming more. Sasuke buries his face into his neck starting to count his breathing to distract him, a moan rumbling deep in his throat.
Seeing Sasuke draped over him, wanting him as bad as he wants him, the passion when they kiss, an intense fire burning in his gut like wildfire, the feeling of their skin meeting, melting at the other's touch. It's all so much to take in. His mind starting to haze over from pure pleasure. Not able to concentrate on anything fully anymore he pulls the raven over joining their lips together as Sasuke continuously thrusts into him.
The room is growing heated the longer this goes on. Sasuke's pale skin glistening in the light of the moon, a light coat of sweat covering him. He can't tell who's is who's anymore, or if Sasuke sweats at all. Sasuke presses himself against the blond more. The warmth coming from Naruto is like a drug to him. Sasuke hasn't felt warmth like this for years and he's forgotten how good it feels. Sasuke, in the moment of pleasure, thrusts hard into Naruto's prostate making the blond under him gasp.
"Nngh~ S-Sasuke, do - haah- that again." Sasuke obeys and presses deep in. Naruto glides their lips together roughly. Sasuke shoves his tongue into his open mouth. Naruto moans into Sasuke's mouth when he yet again slams into his prostate. Naruto throws his head back, back arching in rapture. He nearly cries out as he releases getting both Sasuke and himself dirty. Seeing Naruto in complete satisfaction is all it takes to push Sasuke over the edge. He let's out a low moan as he empties himself into the blond.
He catches himself before he falls limp over his partner, not wanting to hurt him. Naruto looks at Sasuke hovering above him, eyes closed, panting heavily just like him. Sasuke slowly opens his eyes halfway meeting Naruto's. His eyes a glowing crimson color, but there seems to be something different about them, something that Naruto can't quite put a finger on. Naruto rests his arms on Sasuke's neck and pulls him down as Sasuke pulls himself out of Naruto. He let's the raven rest on him, his head on his chest, arms draped over his sides. Sasuke listening to him breath, his head raising and falling along with the blond's chest.
Naruto feels his eyes becoming heavy, a smile gracing his lips. He drops his eyes to the top of Sasuke's head. His eyes are closed but he can tell he's not sleeping. "Sasuke, are you okay?"
He doesn't answer at first, but eventually his red eyes drift open, only half lidded, looking up to his. "Yeah. That just took a lot more out of me than I expected. What about you? Did you enjoy it?"
Naruto beams him a signature grin. "You weren't half bad."
Sasuke cracks a smile closing his eyes. "You weren't half bad either, for a newbie."
Naruto chuckles. No longer able to keep his eyes open, they shut. "Glad to hear..." His voice trails off into a whisper as he ambles to sleep.
Sasuke runs his tongue over elongated fangs wondering why they won't go back in. It could be because he's so close to Naruto and his blood is still laced with adrenaline. Sasuke rolls off of the blond situating himself beside him, bringing him up to his chest letting Naruto's head lay there. The blond wraps his arms around Sasuke and snuggles up close. The night rolls on and Sasuke continues to watch the blond sleep soundlessly. His chest raising in falling at a steady rhythm. His heartbeat back to a normal pace. Sasuke closes his eyes enjoying the warmth of their skin pressing against one another. Naruto's light snoring eventually lulling him off as well.
So there's that. I worked really hard on the lemon scene and tried to make it gentle instead of rough because it was Naruto's first time. Don't hate me if I royally messing it up. I tried and learned form what I've done and that's what counts xD. I went and read a bunch of SasuNaru lemons for this chapter (not that I didn't enjoy reading them xD). Besides all that I hope you liked it! I'm definitely open to criticism so don't be shy. A huge thanks to those taking the time to review! Also, I just wanna add a little fun fact for how I got the idea for this story. I was in art class and my teacher always has the radio on and the song "Kiss Me Deadly by Lita Ford" came on and I freaked out because that would be a perfect title for a vampire fic. I also scared the shit out of my friend who was working diligently like I probably should have been xD. Thats all, just a little fun fact. Have a great day!
