A/N: Sooo this is the first time I'm writing a full lemon. I hope it came out to everyone's liking or acceptable at the very least. I tried to put detail into it and such (Key word being tried). Ahehe. Please go easy on me. D: IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS! Sorry everyone had to wait almost 3 months for this chapter. I was supposed to release it ages ago but then you know me. Went through a bit of writer insecurities (especially since it's my first lemon). When I finally did finish it, I decided that I would post this on the same day mentioned in the chapter aaand here we all are now.
Recommendation for the chapter: Try listening to Lady Antebellum's cover of the song Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. It gives you have that nice warm fuzzy feeling.
WARNING: This is the chapter where the rating changes from T to M, everyone. There will be sex here between a boy and a girl, both in their teens.

BEFORE THE WORST
What He Needed For a Merry Little Christmas
As tradition would have it, their 'totally awesome and wicked' (Kiba's words) Christmas parties were annually held in Haruno Sakura's magnificent home. Sakura's parents were always willing to share their home for the event with the condition that the house was intact, clean and still standing after the hustle and bustle of it all. Oh how the nature of the party changed as the years went by. No longer was it the innocent middle school shindig it used to be. The kids were all in their junior year and it was no secret to the parents how wild high school parties were and it was no secret that Sakura was more than exposed to worldly vices; so the Haruno couple decided that if Sakura ever did consume copious amounts of alcohol, it was best that she was already in her own home rather than some other hooligan's house (although of course, they'd much rather prefer that Sakura kept completely sober). Ultimately, Mr. and Mrs. Haruno trusted Sakura and were both fairly confident that she was responsible enough to handle the logistics of it all.
"Ms. Sakura! We're under the mistletoe!" Lee exclaimed with such passion. Every year was always the same. He'd always try to get Sakura under the mistletoe using some lame-brained excuse. No one could blame him though. He'd been in love with Sakura for years. A guy could always dream.
"Technically, Lee, you're under the mistletoe. I'm not." Sakura said matter-of-factly, noticing how the mistletoe was strategically positioned on a door that could only fit one person at a time. See, the pinkette had years of experience to account for her better judgement regarding the placement of Christmas ornaments. "Better luck next year, Lee." She winked at the suddenly deflated boy.
The party had been raging on for hours now and it was nearing the part where almost everyone was almost too drunk to even know what was going and/or passed out somewhere. Sakura, with the assistance of Ino, were diligent in keeping the rooms somewhat tidy. They'd decided to thoroughly clean the place once everyone had gone down their party high and left the vicinity.
After briefly checking whether the restrooms were presentable, Sakura spotted Sasuke and Naruto in the centre of a small group of people. She wasn't surprised to see the weird couple engaging in an intense round of arm wrestling. She chuckled because, judging from very small smirk on Sasuke's face, the Uchiha was only humouring his girlfriend. Well, not entirely as it would seem, because Sakura spotted a tiny trickle of sweat forming at the boy's forehead. Naruto was halfway through getting Sasuke's arm slammed down on the table but that last stretch appeared to be causing her great problems. The blonde had one eye closed and was audibly grunting as she tried to push down on Sasuke's hand. Sasuke, although granted was much stronger than Naruto in terms of brute muscle strength, was naturally having some trouble trying to regain the arm leverage that would ascertain his victory. He had let Naruto put him at a disadvantageous position. It was only natural that he was somewhat struggling.
A sudden burst of energy appeared to have come to the Uchiha when suddenly he was able to get his hand back up to the starting position and the lad pushed just a bit more to put Naruto at the disadvantage. A round of drunken cheers came from their spectators.
"God damn it, Uchiha!" Sakura heard Naruto grunt out.
Sakura decided to lend her blonde a helping hand. The pinkette took a bottle of alcoholic eggnog and casually treaded toward the competing teens. By this point, Sasuke was openly smirking at Naruto. Just a tiny push and Sasuke would have won.
Sakura slammed the bottle of eggnog on the table the two were using. "I brought eggnog!" The action fairly startled Sasuke and Naruto however the word 'eggnog' had granted Naruto enough time to finish Sasuke off. Everyone knew how Sasuke had been traumatized by that first and hopefully last eggnog incident back when they were younger.
SLAM!
Naruto stood up from her seat in triumph. "HELL YEAH! Who's my bitch? Sasuke's my bitch!" The girl then began to promptly dance around like a lunatic. A couple of their spectators groaned in defeat and began to dish out cash to one of their smug-looking classmates. Apparently, everyone had bet against Naruto except for that one lucky bastard who didn't.
Sasuke tsk-ed in annoyance while he rubbed the pain away from the back of his hand. He then accusingly glared at the Haruno girl. "That was highly unnecessary. I would have let her win."
Sakura rolled her eyes. "Oh yeah. Sure you would have." Every word was laced with sarcasm.
"Mou, Sakura-chan. Can you tell me what exactly happened in that one Christmas party? Sasuke won't tell me anything. And it looks like he scared everyone else into not telling me anything as well." Naruto pouted and subsequently plopped onto Sasuke's lap
"Oof! Damn it, loser! You're heavy!" Although the words were chiding, his actions were anything but. Sasuke hand automatically put his arms around Naruto's waist in a loose embrace.
"Weeeelll—" Sakura teasingly began.
"Haruno." The name was said with a clear warning.
"Maybe next time, blondie!" The pinkette stuck her tongue out at the blonde and shot out a peace sign.
Naruto sighed in defeat. "You all suck..." She caught a short glimpse of her wristwatch and her eyes widened. She had no idea it was this late already! If she wanted her plans to push through, she would have to leave with Sasuke at this instant before the both of them got any more tired.
"Sakura-chan! Sasuke and I gotta bounce now. We have a few other things to take care of. It was an awesome party! As it is every year." She said while standing up from the lap of one confused Uchiha.
"Hey! Don't think you can get away from cleaning duty, idiot!" Sakura placed her fists on her waist similar to how a scolding mother would to her child.
Naruto put together the palms of her hands in a gesture of pleading. She then shot her big shiny round blue eyes at Sakura and pouted. "Just for this year, Sakura-chan?" The flaxen-haired teen then checked to see if Sasuke was looking. To her chagrin, Sasuke was monitoring their interaction. Luckily, girls were born with the gift of being able to communicate with their eyes; so when Naruto slightly squinted at Sakura and inconspicuously shifted her pupils to Sasuke and back to Sakura, the older girl knew what Naruto was trying to convey.
"Oooooh! Right. Gotcha." Sakura whispered and deviously grinned. Sasuke sat bewildered. It was astounding how women communicated without actually doing anything. Sakura then chuckled, "Sure. But you owe me big time, Naruto." She said before shooing the blonde away.
"I'll get Sasuke to buy you ice cream!" Typical of Naruto to pimp her boyfriend out for her own benefit. "You're the best, Sakura!" Naruto cried out before taking a hold of Sasuke's hand so they could leave the party. Sakura thus fondly waved her goodbye at the two seventeen-year-old teenagers.
"Blockhead?" Sasuke tried to get answers while Naruto was leading him to his car.
"Just wanted to get home is all." He knew Naruto had lied but he'd let that slide for now.
It took a while for the car heater to warm up but none of them minded for now. The deep baritone and the clear melodious voices of the respective artists singing the classic Christmas tune on the radio provided the peaceful background tune for the two teens in the vehicle. Naruto had looked out the window as she marvelled at the trickling fresh snow from the heavens. Sasuke kept stealing glances now and then at Naruto's reflection on the window yet irritatingly enough he knew he had to keep his eyes on the road so they could get to their destination in one piece. He kept his speed at a comfortable cruise. There was something about this moment that he wanted to cherish. The music continued on making the entirety of the instance more perfect.
Here we are as in olden days, happy golden days of yore
Sasuke didn't know what made him want to go as slowly as possible just so he could make the moment last. Maybe it was the way the feather-like snowflakes fell to the crisp untouched blanket of pure white on the ground. Or maybe it was the gentle plucking of the guitar and the melodic piano that accompanied the singers on the radio. It could also be the way the charming Christmas lights of each respective house made the streets a bit cosier in his eyes.
Through the years we all will be together if the fates allow
For the most part, the boy surmised that he was trying to prolong the journey because of the way he and Naruto had their hands clasped together in the space between their seats, with their fingers intertwined in the most loving of contact. It was one of the many times that Sasuke felt everything was perfect, felt that his world had everything he could ever want within his possession; and in all of those times, he had Naruto by his side.
The one thing, the one person, that could make him feel the way he did.
And yet again he found himself being baffled by the idea that someone so bright, so warm, and so utterly wonderful could ever be with him. At this thought, he found himself smiling.
He was lucky to have her.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Unfortunately, he was only mortal and that attempts to slow down time were to all in vain. To his dismay, they'd arrived at Naruto's home, vaguely registering the predominant lack of lighting inside the structure. The only light found within the abode came from the living room window which sheltered the quaint Christmas tree.
"Tch. I told Jiraiya to make sure he turned off the tree lights before he left." Naruto muttered as she stepped out of the car. The girl shivered and blew out a puff of air out of her mouth.
"When is he coming back?" Sasuke asked, absent-mindedly noting how he could also see his breath coming out in mists.
"Two weeks from now." Naruto answered as she quickly tried to make her way into the warmth of her house.
Sasuke didn't have to check his watch to know that it was way past midnight. It was early morning on the twenty-fourth of December; less than twenty-four hours until Christmas.
Naruto wouldn't have family on Christmas Day or even on New Year's Eve, just like him.
"You want me to stay here the next two weeks?" Sasuke asked as they finally basked in the warmth the indoors brought.
Naruto smiled at the offer. "That would be nice." The girl led him to the living room where there stood proudly the dainty tree Naruto and Jiraiya (Sasuke did most of the work) decorated a few weeks back. Its yellow glow was too much of a sight to behold that Naruto decided to keep all the other house lights off. Such a lovely thing deserved all the attention it could get.
"You want something hot to drink?" Naruto offered.
"I'm alright." Sasuke said as he sat down on the well-loved couch, pulling Naruto along with him. Sasuke sat laxly with Naruto resting her head on his chest. The lad placed an arm around her shoulders to get snugger in their chosen positions. They sat perfectly content in comfortable silence, just staring at the sparkling Christmas tree. Sasuke hummed in pleasure when he felt Naruto draw random lines on his stomach. The two stayed like that for an indefinite amount of time. It wasn't like they were counting, more of the opposite really.
Sasuke was shocked from his state of peace when he felt Naruto shift her head so she could place gentle trails of kisses on his neck. The boy felt Naruto chuckle against his neck when he unconsciously purred at the girl's touch. He was then jolted when Naruto moved to sit on his lap and continued to rain butterfly kisses on Sasuke's exposed neck. Soon the girl moved up and began a slow kiss that Sasuke was all too willing to respond to. This wasn't the first time that the two had made out; far from the first time, honestly speaking, but there was something different that Sasuke couldn't pinpoint.
It took Naruto opening the first few buttons of his shirt to know what really was going on.
Sasuke reluctantly pulled his mouth away from his partner's. "Naruto?" In the two years they'd spent as a couple, there was only one time that an attempt at getting undressed while they were making out occurred. Sasuke had initiated it at that time but was promptly halted by Naruto. The girl had claimed she wasn't ready for that type of contact yet; Sasuke respected her wishes. After that time, Sasuke had been careful not to take anything too far so long as Naruto wasn't ready. Since then, he had let Naruto dictate their pace. He would only do what Naruto was comfortable with.
Naruto rested her forehead against Sasuke as she returned to unbuttoning the boy's clothing. The Uchiha however caught the girl's hands and stilled her movement's temporarily. "Naruto, what are you doing?"
The blonde closed her eyes and exhaled. "Sasuke, I want to... "She seemed like she was struggling for the right words."My Christmas gift. I—I'm ready. I want..."
"You're sure?" Sasuke asked as he let his eyes drift to a close and he rubbed his nose against Naruto's.
The boy felt Naruto nod her head in affirmation before their lips connected once more. Sasuke guessed Naruto would begin to work at his buttons again. He wouldn't allow it. Well, not just yet. If this was going to be their first time, it had to be faultless; and he doubted doing it on the couch was the ideal place for this.
He secured Naruto's legs on his hips before he stood up, feeling the girl's thighs tighten around him once he was up on his feet. Their kisses were becoming more frantic by the second and as predicted Naruto was removing the last few buttons that were still intact. The boy slid a hand underneath her shirt, feeling the girl shiver at the cold touch. Sasuke began to manoeuvre his way out of the living room with his eyes closed, relying only by memory of the house layout. He'd grunted a few apologies to Naruto who'd hit the wall once or twice on their journey from the living room to her bedroom. The frustration that the obstacles brought had Sasuke opening his eyes somewhat so he could see where he was going. Miraculously, they'd made it to the stairs.
Naruto opened her eyes as well once she felt the railings of the stairs on the lowest portion of her back. She snickered, unwrapped her legs around Sasuke's hips and whispered against his mouth.
"Race you to the room, bastard."
Sasuke had barely registered the words before Naruto was barreling up the stairwell. The boy was quick to follow her, shrugging off his shirt and flung the article unseeingly, and easily catching up to the blonde at the door to her room. He caught her in a round of lip lock while turning the knob to open the door. Once said barricade had opened, Sasuke pushed Naruto inside the room, not once breaking their contact. The girl found purchase by wrapping her arms around the boy's neck, then she'd let herself fall when she felt the edge of her bed at the back of her knees. Such an action caused Sasuke to fall on top of her.
Naruto chuckled at the small fright of falling had caused her boyfriend. Sasuke could be so adorable sometimes without even meaning to! She took this time to take off the turtle neck top she was wearing, careful not to tangle her mother's necklace into her clothing. Sasuke, deciding that Naruto was moving too slowly for his liking, went to unclasp and zip open the girl's dark blue jeans for her.
"Impatient, Sasuke-kun?" Naruto, using the honorific Sasuke's fans often used, teased him with a voice that was dripping with lust. At a loss for words, Sasuke simply replied with a low growl to which Naruto found exceedingly endearing. Naruto's button-nose crinkled with mirth as she chortled at her sweetheart before reconnecting her lips to the latter. The two were so lost in their frenzied lip lock that the chore of having to undress was left to their instincts. They vaguely recalled the sound of a belt being unbuckled and maybe the visual of clothes being thrown across the room, but none of them really paid any heed to the peripheral details.
As individuals whose hormone levels were at their peak, the only details worth noting were the heat, the proximity, and the sounds coming from the both of them.
Naruto lay on her back, tilting her neck to give enough space for Sasuke to shower her with nips and kisses. As she was bathing in the pleasure of it all, she felt Sasuke slide his hand to her back, in clear search of the clasp that would inevitably remove her bra. She ran her hand across his bare back in order to encourage the boy. Moments later, with not much success from the lad, Naruto could hear the faint growl coming from the Uchiha's throat.
"How many Uchihas does it take to unclasp a bra?" She breathily stated, and ended with a snicker.
Sasuke removed himself from his spot in the crook of Naruto's neck and cutely scowled at her. "Shut up. It's not like I've had any practice, idiot. You're the only girl I've..." To which Sasuke blushed, refusing to complete his statement.
"Aww. That's so cute, babe!" Naruto was about to get her head bitten off for having called Sasuke 'cute' and using the dreaded term 'babe' all in one sentence. The boy was literally ready to harshly leave a bite mark on her neck when Naruto lightly pushed his chest in order to get the both of them to sit up. The girl smirked, made quick workings of the clasp of her undergarment and threw the article of clothing to the side of the bed. "Now, Sasuke, where were we?" The tinge of huskiness in her voice sent a wave of heat to Sasuke's lower abdomen; making the boy eagerly pounce on the blonde.
The blonde moaned at the feel of Sasuke's hand moving up her curve and stopping just at the base of her breast. The small twitch of hesitation was not amiss to her. "Sasuke... go on." She breathed out as she wrapped her arms around Sasuke's broad muscular shoulders. Having the vocal affirmation from his girlfriend, Sasuke cupped the blonde's breast gingerly before giving it a light squeeze.
"Yeah. That's it. Keep going, S'uke."
A thumb came to lightly caress a pert nipple. Sasuke lightly traced the contours of the pink nub, eliciting gasp after gasp of pleasure from Naruto. This was all too new; the sensation, the contact, the warmth, the exhilaration. This was all just too new. The onset of such consciousness had Naruto's excitement spiking to considerable levels.
"Sasuke!" She, not knowing what to plead for, moaned her beloved's name instead; hoping that the boy would know what she was asking for. The Uchiha smirked against her neck, understanding all too well what Naruto was going through. The lad trailed a finger down the girl's torso, toying with the beautiful jewel situated on Naruto's chest, then briefly teasing at her navel before resuming its journey to remove Naruto's last piece of clothing.
Sasuke held onto the hem of Naruto's underwear, making sure that his intentions were clear. Naruto, upon instinct, eased her body upwards in order to make the task easier for the older teen. Once she was laid bare to the boy, she quickly received a kiss. She, however, had no time to react to the gesture of affection because as soon as their lips met, she immediately felt Sasuke's finger probing at a particularly sensitive portion just above her entrance. Naruto released a pleasured wail into Sasuke's mouth.
"Sa- ahhh!" She gasped out loud as Sasuke rubbed at the clitoral glans. The blonde never knew she could feel that good over a simple touch. The girl spread her legs even wider to accommodate Sasuke. In the midst of her heavy breathing, she vaguely heard Sasuke whisper calming words. The finger that was once toying with her clit moved lower toward the lips of her womanhood. Feeling that she was amply self-lubricated, Sasuke circled a finger at the entrance.
"Just relax for me, Sunshine." The girl nodded as an acknowledgement. She then felt something pushing into her which caused her to whimper and tense up slightly from the discomfort.
"Shhh. It's okay. You're okay." Sasuke cooed at her. He then shallowly pushed the finger in and out so Naruto could get used to the feeling of the intrusion. A couple of moments later, Sasuke felt the Naruto's inner walls relax and not long after that, the blonde was responding to him by moving her hips in time with his finger.
"I'm adding one more, Naruto. Just breathe, okay?" He did not wait for a reply. He slid a second finger into the girl causing her to yelp and to still her movements. She instinctively attempted to close her legs however Sasuke prevented her from doing so. "Breathe Naruto." The Uchiha thus began to spread his inserted fingers.
"Fuck!" Naruto groaned. She refused to complain however; fully aware that this was a necessary procedure if they were to go all the way that night. In her own attempt to get used to the feeling, she timidly began to buck her hips to which Sasuke responded to in turn. The image of Naruto, whose eyes were closed shut from sheer concentration, ate at Sasuke's guilt. He never did like causing her serious pain. He curled his fingers hoping to erase the expression off of Naruto's face. Judging by the moan he received, the action proved successful. Consequently, her reaction sent an intense wave of pleasure to Sasuke's loins.
After a couple more thrusts, Naruto deemed herself ready. "Sasuke. Now. I want you now." She unabashedly admitted as her mind fell prey to the haze of mind-numbing desire.
Sasuke pulled his fingers out from her heat and started to palm around random surfaces in clear search of something. "Condom?" He asked as the impatience grew to irritate him.
Naruto droned out a curse upon the realization that the condom she was prepared with was in the back pocket of her jeans; the same pair of jeans that they so carelessly tossed into the abyss of the room. "Back pocket." She hissed in utter scorn. Having been granted the location of their protection, Sasuke jumped to action. Not a second later, Naruto heard the crinkling packaging of something being hastily opened. Thank the gods for Sasuke's good eyesight.
Sasuke, not missing a beat, jumped back onto the mattress and roughly attached his lips to Naruto's. It was in this moment of clashing tongues that Sasuke chose to simultaneously roll on the condom while kissing the breath out of his girlfriend. Unconsciously, Naruto began to wrap her legs around Sasuke's hips, feeling the tip of Sasuke's member graze her inner thigh. Sasuke reached down in between them to take hold of his erection. He then positioned the head of his cock just at Naruto's wet womanhood.
"Now, bastard." She breathlessly ordered while Sasuke paused for air.
Slowly, ever so slowly, Sasuke pushed into Naruto. It was so gratifyingly torturous that Sasuke began to quake with the intense craving to just simply let go and pound Naruto into the mattress. She was so wonderfully tight and the heat, oh the heat! The sensation laid waste to his mind; but Naruto would always be his priority. It was devastatingly apparent that Naruto was in pain judging from the loud and strained gasps she was releasing. As long as Naruto was in pain, he outright refused to let his male instincts take over.
"Do you want me to pull out?" He asked in pure concern to which Naruto responded with a vigorous shake of her flaxen-haired head. "No! Just... just go slow. I'm fine." She said with a tensed voice.
The dark-haired teen loudly exhaled through his nose while he concentrated on not snapping his hips forward. Inch by inch, Sasuke entered in a most snail-paced manner. In what seemed like forever for the both of them, the Uchiha was finally fully seated into his significant other. Naruto caressed Sasuke's cheek, noting the sheer pain of the restraint was causing him. The girl kissed each of Sasuke's eyelids in silent thanks for his concern. To return the favour, she began to shallowly move her hips in order to offer some sort of relief for Sasuke.
"Shit." Sasuke moaned and began to respond.
Naruto winced as she was not fully used to Sasuke's length but she endured it. "C-c-ome on, Sasuke. Faster." She ordered as she sensually dragged her nails down Sasuke's exposed back. The boy sped up somewhat yet it was still apparent that he was cautious. "Faster, baby!" Naruto screamed while she slammed her hips upward, letting Sasuke's manhood enter deeper into her. The unexpected sensation that the sudden action brought had both teens loudly moaning; and it was that moment that the two snapped. Sasuke hooked an arm behind one of Naruto thighs and proceeded to slam his hips forcefully into her. The boy forced his eyes open so he could watch Naruto come undone right before his eyes. The sight that greeted him had his heart skipping a beat. Naruto looked so beautiful. This woman whose tan skin glistened under the meagre amount of moonlight; whose moistened blonde locks fell flawlessly down her body and stuck to her sensual curves; whose bright shimmering eyes conveyed beautiful emotion so accurately. He couldn't believe it. To have such an angel in his arms like this... it was overwhelming him. Unable to contain the emotion, he caught her lips and put more force into his thrusts, seeking their completion.
Naruto whimpered out of ecstasy. She was almost there; almost unable to contain the coil in her lower abdomen. It was when Sasuke began to kiss her cheek, down her neck, to her collarbone that she pleaded "Sasuke! I.. I'm s-so... oh shit! So close!" She felt Sasuke wrap his warm mouth around her nipple while simultaneously speeding up his thrusts. The fire in his veins allowed him to go in just a bit deeper, move just a bit faster, thrust in just a bit harder. The sound of flesh hitting flesh intensified, cries of bliss became louder and louder and louder. And not long after...
"Oh my god! Sasuke!"
Sasuke released the nub in his mouth in order to watch Naruto climax. Sparkling sapphire eyes clouded with intense lust met deep onyx and in that time of connection, Sasuke lost it. Coupled with the feeling of Naruto's tightening inner walls, Sasuke reached his peak together with Naruto, plunging in a few more times to ride out his orgasm.
Immediately after coming down from their high, Sasuke gave one last kiss to Naruto before languidly pulling out, haphazardly tossing his used condom to dispose of it in the closest rubbish bin, and settling beside the blonde. Their synchronized gasping proved to be the only sound in the privacy of Naruto's room.
The Uzumaki girl, using her last bit of energy, cuddled her Sasuke, resting her head at the crook of his neck. "Merry Christmas, S'uke. I love you so much." She whispered tiredly as exhaustion gradually took over her.
Making sure that the girl had succumbed to sleep, Sasuke finally chose to reply. "I... I love you too." He said in a most shaky voice. 'Dangerous', the thought briefly crossed his mind but he paid no heed to it, opting to nuzzle Naruto's soft golden tresses, to bask in the afterglow of their love and to let the night take him.
llllllllllllllllllll
Naruto sighed in exasperation when after the nth time she poked Sasuke on the cheek, the young man still refused to wake up. Sasuke never never woke up after Naruto. NEVER. Well at least now she knew there was a first for everything.
She used her elbows to raise herself closer toward Sasuke and pinched the boy's cheek with significant force. The Uchiha grumbled and scrunched his brows in annoyance yet continued to keep his dark eyes closed.
"Oi. Don't make me tickle you, bastard." Naruto threateningly warned the other, all the while running a finger in between Sasuke's brows to smoothen the worry creases. Sasuke, unbeknownst to 99.99% of the world population, was immensely ticklish; although attacking him using his weakness always proved to be very life-threatening... for the attacker.
"How are you not tired?" He said groggily in response, taking a hold of Naruto's wrist while forcing his eyes open. The girl beamed at him once his dark irises were finally visible. "Good morning, my breathtakingly amazing bastard!" She greeted while giving Sasuke an Eskimo kiss.
The older teen rolled his eyes but smiled at the other nonetheless. "Good morning, dork. " He raised his hand from beneath the blanket so he could cup her marked cheek briefly then proceeded to flick her on the forehead. "So why did you wake me up when I so clearly needed the sleep after last night?" He glared for extra measure (Che. Not like it worked on Naruto anyway).
Naruto shrugged but before Sasuke could hit her again for her lousy answer she replied "Missed you. Wanted to spoon and shit." She therefore decided it was the right course of action to glomp Sasuke. Again, Sasuke rolled his eyes, his annoyance rapidly dissipating. What heartless bastard could ever stay irritated at a person who missed you while you slept. He wasn't Satan or anything (although Naruto believed otherwise).
He began to soothingly run his hand up and down Naruto's arm. "You alright?"
"I'm perfect, jerk." Came the muffled reply since Naruto had her face buried on his toned chest. Sasuke contentedly sighed. This was nice. Being with Naruto like this was ... peaceful. He felt alive and human. With her, he was real. It was overwhelming how everything just felt so right. The feel of Naruto's steady breathing, her scent, her presence, her love, it was all right.
"How about you? Are you okay?" She asked, feeling a bit guilty for disturbing Sasuke's slumber.
Sasuke searched his brain to find the perfect answer to the question. Thinking that Sasuke had fallen right back to sleep, Naruto attempted to follow suit and rest up. Just as she was about to lose consciousness, Sasuke responded, causing his chest to rumble near Naruto's ear.
"You know what. I'm exactly where I want to be, Naruto. I'm just... happy." He said softly. Naruto looked up from where she lay and smiled. "I feel exactly the same way, you sap." To which both of them chuckled.
When another silence fell upon them, Sasuke let his eyes mindlessly wander around his girlfriend's room. Found on one of Naruto's upper shelves, two familiar figures came to view which amused Sasuke to a great measure.
"I can't believe we had sex while Kurama and Corky were watching. You could have at least put them somewhere else. Or do you have an exhibitionist kink that I should be aware of?" Sasuke teased, sniggering at the way Naruto looked up in her surprise and turned red from embarrassment.
"OH GOD! Those two are probably scarred for life!" Naruto wailed as she played along.
"Hn. They should probably be getting used to this since we'll be doing it a lot now." Sasuke said suggestively while wiggling his eyebrows for added effect. He found himself, however, smothered with a pillow a split second later with Naruto's laughter resounding in the background.
"Always knew you were a closet-pervert." She mirthfully exclaimed. After having removed the pillow from Sasuke's face, she swooped down and lovingly kissed Sasuke smack right on the lips. It was short and sweet, a complete contrast to their fiery lovemaking the previous night.
"Breakfast?" She offered before sitting up, using a portion of her blanket to hide her state of undress. Naruto then walked over to the nearest set of clothing she could find on the floor. Figured it would be Sasuke's button-down shirt, but she made do and wore the thing without complaint.
"No morning sex?" The Uchiha jibed, focusing in on the fact that Naruto looked highly attractive in his shirt.
Naruto snickered, finished buttoning her boyfriend's top, choosing to leave Sasuke's query unanswered.
"Unless you want instant ramen for breakfast, I suggest you get off your lazy ass and help me make breakfast." She winked before swiftly making it out of her room. Sasuke stood up, grabbed his pair of jeans and wore the article of clothing; smiling to himself through the whole process.
He took Kurama and Corky from their shelf and placed them in a more child-friendly area. Hopefully, those two wouldn't be too traumatized from last night. Sasuke took his time exiting the room and not soon after he could hear Naruto calling his name from downstairs.
Another smile graced his features.
This.
The now.
With Naruto.
It was exactly what he wanted.
"Sasuke! Hurry! If I end up burning the eggs, I'm blaming you!"
And he wouldn't mind having this for the rest of his life actually.
Dangerous.
He briefly paused in his journey downstairs.
He shook his head to erase the hauntingly familiar voice at the back of his head. And as he approached the kitchen to where Naruto was, he started to mentally chant a mantra.
This.
The now.
With Naruto.
It was exactly what he wanted.
It was exactly what he wanted.
It was exactly what he wanted.
It was exactly what he needed.
"You utter loser! I can't believe you burnt eggs! Who burns eggs?!"
"Shut up! I told you to hurry the hell up, asshole!"
She was exactly what he needed.
