Chapter 7: Rapture
Published on May 20th, 2021
The news of Naruto's last miscarriage fortunately hadn't circled around: only sworn-in people knew about the pregnancy in the first place. Shikamaru had heard about Naruto's last miscarriage from Hinata. He had run into the Hyuuga princess after she had gone out of Naruto's kage bedroom the morning after the autumn fest. Hinata had helped Naruto get cleaned up and kept her company. Shikamaru had gone looking for Naruto and when Hinata had advised him several times to not go in and bother Naruto with work right at that moment, Shikamaru had taken in the Hyuuga's grim face and the reluctance to disclose any further information. Immediately, his sharp mind had arrived at the correct conclusion about what had happened. He had handled the workload that day and had told Temari he would be late that night, telling her quietly what the reason was. Temari had just nodded in understanding and sadness for her friend and they both hoped that when Sasuke came back, he would at least react calmly.
And he did react calmly. Too calmly, even, to the point where it was unsettling and worse than when he had previously gotten upset.
Sasuke made sure Naruto was taken care of after the last miscarriage but otherwise did not spend much time with her. He engaged in missions even without his expertise being requested.
The bond between them – usually open and pumping with the strength of their connection – now felt distant and weaker than ever.
Naruto felt hopeless – they hadn't addressed the situation at all and frankly, Naruto wasn't sure she had it in her to talk about any of this anymore. She went through her days and responsibilities as Hokage on autopilot. Sometimes she would come home and there would be a fresh home-cooked meal but Sasuke wouldn't be around to have dinner with her. She would eat the delicious food with her throat tight and her eyes lowered.
Or she would come home late and Sasuke would already be asleep. Fear gripped her every time that she would look at his hand only to see that the black wedding band had been removed, the symbol of their sacred marriage. Naruto would feel inappropriate at the thought of sharing a bed with him, guilt and anxiety gripping at her throat, and would sleep in one of the other rooms or the Hokage bedroom, deciding to address the issue the next day – when the same cycle would repeat again. When she did sleep in another room in the house, she would wake up at night hearing Sasuke's screams in his nightmares, but guilt and hurt kept her rooted to the spot: she would hear the screaming stop and the thuds of his fast steps pacing around on the wooden floor, surely attempting to calm himself down.
Even the intimate contact between them had seized – usually, Sasuke was always in her space, the intensity of their physical contact known to many. Even following her previous miscarriages, Sasuke had never stopped their physical contact, even if it came with the expectation of conceiving. This time around was completely different - they hadn't had sex in weeks. Naruto's vast amount of chakra was distorted – she usually relied on physical contact with Sasuke to get all that chakra under control and sex seemed to be the best outlet (previously it had been sparring until they discovered how much stronger and more satisfying their sexual contact was). Meditation and tuning into sage mode helped some but ultimately, contact with her one equal provided the most results. Sasuke forced all that energy inside her to gather and concentrate and restart to flow correctly. It couldn't be just anyone either – it had to be someone equal or stronger than her in order to be able to will all that chakra and demonic energy inside her. So now she resorted to doing some things herself which only left her unsatisfied and even more frustrated.
Eventually, she did try approaching Sasuke – only for him to shut down before any real conversation occurred and declare that he is going to the training grounds. Frankly, she understands - she doesn't feel Sasuke has the emotional stability right now to address any real concern in a productive manner, so she leaves him alone. Sasuke doesn't stay at home much now and the rift in their bond makes Naruto feel like she is suffocating. She feels sick to her stomach and exhausted and anxious and empty. Honestly, she misses him so much it hurts.
Naruto is hurt beyond words by the gradual falling apart of their marriage. Sasuke avoids her now and gives her the cold shoulder – a typical Uchiha move. And she just does not have the energy to do anything about it anymore other than let time pass and let events unfold on their own. She recognizes that she is most likely in depression - but she is too deep in it to have the mental capacity and energy right now to analyze their situation in-depth and how to resolve it. Making any type of major decision seems impossible right now – and had been for a while – with how fatigued and empty she felt.
She can't even imagine beginning to address the mental breakdown Sasuke had been developing for a while – it just all seemed too much. If Sasuke brought it up, she would talk, but otherwise she didn't have it in her to reach out again. So, she just carried on the best she could.
Sasuke wakes up screaming from yet another nightmare. Slender fingers quickly find purchase in the grass around him; takes deep breaths to ground himself. The grass feels fresh and crispy and he is awake now; uses the feeling of the ground and the forest sounds around him to guide his senses into calming down, willing his mind and body to recognize that he is awake now. He seems to have nightmares now every time he closes his eyes. As a result, he tries to sleep as little as possible. There was a time in his rogue years when the nightmares had been as bad as they were now – after fighting Itachi and finding out the twisted truth about the crime that had given a dark goal to his whole life up until that point. That time, up to his final battle with Naruto, had been Sasuke's lowest point. He never thought he would feel any worse or more lost than he did at that moment.
The images of the last nightmare left bile in his mouth - her being with another man, loving someone else – the ultimate fear Sasuke could not hide from when asleep. That one core insecurity, the infinite doubt, always found Sasuke with his guard down and tore him apart with visceral dread.
The nightmares had been worsening for the last couple of years, but now they were substantially worse. He felt so disconnected from Naruto - that made him feel lost. She was his compass and the focus of his life after the war. The bond between Naruto and him was the pinnacle of his existence, the one constant in his turbulent past and future.
Sasuke just couldn't bring himself to start unpacking everything that had put a wall between him and his wife. He wants to share everything with her – the pressure residing in the village put him under, his loneliness, the extent of his broken mind. If she just came away with him, forsook the cursed village and joined him in his travels - all of their problems would go away. But instead, Sasuke had stayed in the village for her to allow her to pursue her dreams. And that weighed on him. Guilt paralyzed him and took his words away every time. Sasuke recognized her trying to reach out to him several times and appreciated her tact in allowing him to take his distance for now.
He knew Naruto must be beyond herself without his touch and her chakra must be all over the place by now. Sasuke knew he wasn't being a good husband – hadn't been one for a while. He was too off-balance and confused as an individual and too proud as an Uchiha to open up about all of his vulnerability thoroughly. And he knew that there were no half-ways with Naruto – it was either all or nothing. That's why he had shut down the times when Naruto had tried to address things with him. He just couldn't fathom having the stability to open up and give her everything she deserved at the moment. So, he had resolved to giving her the cold shoulder and had not been around lately in general.
Sasuke recognized that, even though they shared an eternal bond, this was no way to share a meaningful relationship for long. Something had to give.
"So you're going to address the financials?" Naruto and Shikamaru are walking to this afternoon's press conference. Several times a year, usually every quarter, Naruto and her advisors - with Shikamaru as head - hold a press conference with an overview of the plans for the village and the budget. Unscheduled press conferences were called if something else needed addressing such as the restorations and overview of damage of the last attack. Today was a normal scheduled conference and it should be done and over with quickly.
Naruto feels particularly out of sorts today. Shikamaru had picked up on that – in his mind, he taken it into his hands to hit the main points of the plan really fast so they can go attend to other duties after.
"Yes, I'll take care of all that. You sure you're feeling okay?"
"Yes, yes, I'm fine," Naruto rubs at her forehead. "Just tired. I really need to see to assemble a new council soon. It'll take some of the burden off of you, Shika, and off of me too."
"I think that's a good idea. Just make sure it's people you trust."
"You gonna veto people, Nara?"
"Nah. Too troublesome. I trust your judgment."
Naruto glances at him and feels guilt. She knows she hasn't been the best leader to her full potential lately, much less a good friend to Shikamaru. He always took care of her and took off so much of her workload. Meanwhile, she didn't even know he was going to have a second child right until Temari was almost ready to give birth. She also felt disconnected from all her other friends, for that matter. She didn't know something so major about Shikamaru who was with her almost every day, not to mention all of her other friends who she wasn't around for work. Hell, she hadn't seen Hinata for months before she came to help her wash the blood off after her last miscarriage. She had no idea if the Hyuuga process was dating anyone – had Kiba ever confessed how he felt about her? After everything Hinata and so many other people had done for Naruto, she felt horrible for her own drama swallowing her up so much that she didn't keep in touch at all. She felt sick and guilty. She had allowed for her problems to consume her and the people around her.
"I know the Kyuubi heals nearly anything – but would he heal wrinkles? Because you've been frowning a lot lately – like you are now – and I think I already see a little permanent furrow between your eyebrows." Shikamaru notes and Naruto's fingers immediately shoot up to smoothen the furrowed skin between her eyebrows. She playfully pretends to punch his shoulder and mutters how troublesome he is, imitating his voice.
Shikamaru walks behind her and thinks he notices a weird sway in her gait.
The press conference is pretty routine. They go over the major decisions made for this quarter and go over the budget. The press will take the presented information and put it on the linguistic level of their respective publications. The conference is almost over when the press is given the opportunity for closing questions.
"Hokage-sama," a reporter addresses. "Are you still unavailable to give personal interviews?"
The question is not on the topic at hand - Shikamaru goes to dismiss it. Naruto makes a motion for him to hold on and leans into the microphone.
"That is correct. The last personal interview I agreed to was before I was instilled in my role as Hokage and the tabloids had a field day with it and came up with all sorts of versions of what I'd said. So no, I probably won't be agreeing to any of those any time soon." Naruto goes to close the conference when another reporter goes in for a last shot.
"Are you still planning a legal ceremony with Uchiha Sasuke?"
Naruto flinches at the question and she's glad she is already turned to the side so nobody sees or takes pictures of the pained expression on her face.
Shikamaru stands up to walk out behind her when he notices that sway in her gait again as she gets up. The next thing he knows, he is reaching out to catch her when she collapses and knocks the table over.
The light is bright in her eyes and she pats away hands touching her face. There are voices around her and the blonde is just growing more annoyed by the second.
"Naruto, open your eyes." Shikamaru shakes her shoulder roughly. Blue eyes open to find people standing in a circle around her and realizes she is staring up at the ceiling. Several medics are around and Shikamaru is looming over her, his usually bored eyes now filled with worry. Naruto is too exhausted to protest much and comes in and out of it when they take her to the hospital where they hook her up to a bag of fluids. The Hokage finds some energy to let Shikamaru know how unhappy she is with his choice to waste her time and bring her in here where there's needles and shit.
"Naruto, you passed out in the middle of a conference. You were saying the press had had a field day with your personal interview? Well, just wait until they come out with their news tomorrow morning. I don't even know if they'll talk about the quarterly budget at all."
"Look, I'm just tired," she sighs. "There's no need for any of this. Really, I just need to go home and take a nap."
Shikamaru looks at her long and hard - the pretend nonchalance she addresses something serious with bothers him.
"This is all because of Sasuke, isn't it?" Shika decides to be bold and waits for the verbal onslaught when the door opens. Naruto forgets what she was going to say when Sakura walks in. She is followed by the field medics who had brought Naruto in – being a high-profile case, Naruto received immediate attention from the attending head medic, no matter the time or the situation.
The medics go through the information quickly and Sakura is listening, nodding and putting gloves on. She makes brief eye contact with Naruto from under her eyebrows, just to nod and acknowledge the leader, and goes to open a cabinet to get vials out. She instructs the medic to collect blood from Naruto and take it down to the lab. Naruto is still staring at her, lost for words after not having talked to Sakura for years. She almost jumps when Sakura speaks and tells her to take deep breaths and listens to her chest with a stethoscope. Hands adorned with green chakra scan the blonde's body for proper assessment. Sakura flinches slightly when she scans over her abdomen, reading the history there. She asks Naruto medical questions and writes things down on her clipboard. Finally, Naruto comes to her senses somewhat – that fluid must be helping after all – and asks Shikamaru to leave. Shika levels her with a gaze that says are you sure about this? and after confirmation, he gives Sakura a wary gaze and is out the door.
"Sakura-chan," Naruto addresses the pink-haired girl who is standing to the side and filling out medical forms. Green eyes look up to blue and Naruto rubs the back of her neck nervously. She has no idea what to say or how to address something that Sakura blamed her for but was not her fault. She didn't even know how Sakura felt about her marriage to Sasuke anymore. Sasuke and Naruto had fallen in love genuinely and openly almost a decade ago, the bond between them linking them together forever.
"I uhhh… I don't know what to say, Sakura-chan. We haven't talked in a long time."
"You don't need to say anything. I am your medic and you are the Hokage. We can keep it at that."
"No, Sakura. You can't keep avoiding me – avoiding us – for years. We didn't do anything wrong, and we need to talk about it." Naruto takes a breath in. "We used to be friends. All three of us. We can go back to being friends, or at least talk to each other. I am sorry for not telling you earlier in the beginning – I should have – but we didn't do anything wrong outside of that."
Sakura looks at the blonde for a long time. Then she puts the clipboard down on the desk and leans forward, eyes down.
"I think I've always known." Her voice is quiet. "The attention he gave only to you in our genin days, how he protected you. I couldn't forgive him for choosing you when you did not even want him as much as I do. And I can't forgive you for choosing him although you promised me you will get him back for me."
Naruto observes her quietly, lets her vent.
"You promised. And yet you kept chasing after him… I should have done that. Maybe he would have noticed me then."
"Humans have free will, Sakura. Nothing you could have done differently would have changed the outcome of this. Is forced affection something you really want?"
Naruto forces herself to be sympathetic and not get annoyed by the woman who seemed to be still hung up on her husband. Naruto knows Sakura never stood even the smallest speck of a chance against the deep ridges of her bond with Sasuke.
Sakura's eyebrows furrow and green eyes lift to scorn Naruto with resentment.
"How do you always get what you want? When will it ever be enough?" Sakura hisses out. Naruto recoils at the accusation and at the dark resentment Sakura obviously still holds onto after all these years. Naruto averts her eyes, and a hand goes to rest over her once again empty womb.
Immediately, regret flashes through Sakura's face as she realizes she had allowed her true feelings to come on display.
"I-… I'm sorry, Naruto. That was out of line and completely unprofessional. Please forgive me, Hokage-sama." Sakura bows her head slightly.
"You are not wrong Sakura… I have been very blessed. Maybe there is nothing more left in the stars for me." Naruto smiles bitterly and Sakura opens her mouth to say something, but nothing comes out.
The moment is over when Sasuke comes in. Sakura averts her eyes to avoid seeing the worry Sasuke had for Naruto – always only for Naruto. He walks to the bed – but instead of hugging her closely like Sakura had seen before, Sasuke just stands close and Naruto looks away to the side. Sakura picks up on the strained exchange between the two. She takes that observation and tucks it in the back of her mind for later along with the information she had obtained from Naruto's abdominal examination and rumors she had heard circling around about their declining relationship. That's invaluable information to Sakura: she feels something fill her chest and lift her up.
A medic knocks on the door then and delivers papers to Sakura. She skims through them and nods.
"I have your lab results here. Everything seems to be within normal limits, you just seem to be slightly anemic. It could be from not having a proper diet or losing a lot of blood recently." Naruto's jaw clenches, remembering how much blood she had lost during her last miscarriage, continuing to bleed for days, and how little appetite she had had since Sasuke had basically ghosted her. "Either of those or both of them together, combined with exhaustion, would explain your symptoms today. Grab some food and get rest." Sakura signs the medical documents and Sasuke goes to help Naruto up, explaining quietly how they are going straight home and she will be eating under his supervision.
"I'm fine, Teme. Look, this is done infusing and I'm basically like brand new," Naruto gestures to the empty bag.
Sasuke rolls his eyes and helps Naruto to the door where Shikamaru is waiting.
"You couldn't just leave it alone Shika – you just haaad to call the bastard over so he can give me a hard time."
"He needs to know things like that, Naruto. So he can be by your side." Shikamaru says and looks up at Sasuke accusingly, his observant eyes having picked up on Sasuke's recent absence.
After some protesting, they agree that Naruto will stop by her office to pick some things up and will spend the rest of the day at home where Sasuke will make sure that she doesn't do any of the work she had planned for. Shikamaru is right outside the door and takes quick instructions from Naruto as they head to the Hokage building.
Sasuke lingers back to get a copy of the lab results, thanks Sakura and heads for the door.
"Sasuke." Sasuke turns his head just enough to glance at Sakura with the corner of his eye. She is looking at him with intent and resolve.
"If she can't – I can." The statement holds resolve and determined hope. Her eyes are sparkling - they speak to him intently, and suddenly he knows exactly what she means.
For a split second – just a split second - Sasuke feels something rise in him-and is quickly smashed by the immense devotion he has for Naruto. Guilt stings at his heart for even considering something like that for even a moment. He usually would simply not react and walk away, but her audacity to bring something like that up, especially at a moment like this, makes his jaw tighten in anger. Suddenly, he feels the need to reassert what Naruto and he are to each other.
"I love my wife and I am fully devoted to her. There's nothing you – or anyone else for that matter – can say or do to change that."
Sasuke is quiet when he takes Naruto home. He lets her set up her work in the living room, knowing that the monotone muffled sounds from the kitchen and the warmth of the stove will put Naruto to sleep on the couch in no time. He puts a blanket over her just twenty minutes later when he finds her curled on the couch. He looks down at her, moves away a strand of golden hair from her forehead. He feels disgusted with himself at the reaction he had had to Sakura's unabashed suggestion – even for a split second – he felt he had betrayed his wife. Guilt rises up in his chest – such a familiar feeling: just another addition to his failures.
"Wake up, usuratonkachi," Sasuke is standing over Naruto. He takes a seat next to her on the couch, encourages her to eat a bowl of fresh chicken soup and salad he made. He even talks her into moving to the bed and going to sleep early today.
"Now you rest – leave the village for tomorrow," Sasuke says and pushes away the stack of documents she had been reaching for before taking her hand and leading her to the bedroom. Sasuke holds her gaze – thick lashes falling over tired blue eyes – and Naruto sighs, turning around to climb up the stairs. Sasuke follows to make sure she is stocked up with everything she needs and makes her take some vitamins. After he has wrapped her up in a blanket and goes to leave, a tan hand grabs his wrist.
"Sasuke, no – don't leave me tonight too. We don't have to talk about anything tonight – just please don't leave me again. I miss you so much it's making me sick."
Sasuke almost cracks at that statement. Almost breaks down at the confession and the sincerity in her pleading eyes. But he is an Uchiha and an Uchiha can take right about anything before they break. So he nods and takes off his clothes. He moves to press against her back, putting most of his weight on her, knowing that his weight calmed her, and her warmth fended his nightmares away. Usually, this would turn into a very sexual and passionate situation, but now they are so broken and exhausted – just hold each other and hope their regrets don't find them in their sleep.
Naruto is in her office discussing work with Shikamaru and Naoto when Ino barges into her office followed by an apologetic-looking Hinata.
"Naruto! You thought if you didn't say anything, you would be able to get out of it!?"
Shikamaru looks confused, Naoto keeps a neutral face like he does most of the time and nods to his cousin Hinata who nods back. Naruto looks from one girl to the other and her shoulders tense. She gives a forced smile.
"I've no idea what you're talking about, Ino. Maybe we can talk about this later."
"Bullshit we're talking about this later!" Ino is waving her hands in the air. "You're done with work for today – you're coming with us now. There's no time!"
Shikamaru looks even more confused when Ino goes to pull Naruto by the arm and Hinata quietly tries to appease the Yamanaka.
"Naruto, what are they talking about?" Shikamaru asks.
Naruto sighs and leans back on the desk, looking up at the ceiling.
"It's my 25th birthday today." She murmurs nonchalantly, trying to avoid any type of celebration. They had all turned 25 this year – but with everything going on, a celebration was the last thing Naruto had in mind or had the energy for.
"Exactly! It's your 25th and you were intending on hiding in your office all day? We all celebrated big for our 25ths – it's only natural to give the Hokage a big celebration as well."
"Ino-chan, I appreciate the effort, but I really-"
"I don't want to hear it! The moment I found out from sweet little Hinata here," Hinata shifts uncomfortably at being called out as the cause of the Hokage's current discomfort, "I immediately let everyone from our academy year know and we are all going out tonight. And before you freak out – I got you – we'll be going to a place far in the civilian part of the village where it's very unlikely that you would be recognized, especially with the makeover I'm about to give you. Come on, let's get going – the girls will be meeting at my place soon so we can all get ready together. Shikamaru, can you hold the fort here? Great. And don't forget to come, both of you," she wiggles her finger between Shikamaru and Naoto, "No excuses. Also, no shinobi clothes allowed. Let's go!"
Ino gives the guys the name of the club and the time and drags Naruto out of there as she shouts instructions on everything that needs to be done for the day and Shikamaru assuring the Hokage that it'll all be okay. Hinata Naruto a quiet apology and Naruto's heart softens. She talks Ino into at least stopping by her house first so she can grab a few things and outfits.
Once she has collected everything she needs from the house and has put it in a bag, she leaves a note for Sasuke telling him where she will be. She tries not to think of the possibility that her husband may have forgotten that it was her 25th birthday today – seeing as it was already 3pm and he was on another voluntary mission today. She pushes all those thoughts away and tucks the bag on her shoulder, setting her mind on having a good time tonight no matter how empty she felt inside.
When they walk into the Yamanaka mansion, Naruto is surprised to see Temari getting up from the couch and coming to greet her. Naruto looks awkwardly to the side. She had apologized to Shikamaru about what had happened a few months ago at his party – the two had to work together and there was no avoiding the topic. She hadn't seen Temari or Gaara since - she hoped Shikamaru had extended her apologies to both of them too. Naruto doesn't know where she stands with Temari and her family and suddenly, she feels mortified again.
"Uhh… Hi, Temari-chan. I didn't know you were coming." Naruto awkwardly rubs the back of her neck. Naruto braves up and looks up at the other woman. "I'm really sorry about what happened at your party. All the hospitality you gave me, and it was such a happy occasion and I'm really sorry. You and your guests did not deserve that."
Temari steps close and wraps strong arms around the Hokage. Naruto's eyes widen.
"It's not your fault, sweet girl." Temari grips her shoulders and caresses the golden hair. There is emotion in her voice, things she's holding back from saying, and Naruto finds her eyes watering. "It's not your fault. Your burden is too big."
Temari's voice is motherly and Naruto blinks tears away. Naruto grips her too and when they part, Naruto blinks several more times.
"Oh man. I feel so much better that we're still friends. Tell me Temari-chan – I already asked Shika but sometimes he softens things up for me – how was your brother?"
Temari waves her hands dismissively.
"Nothing he couldn't recover from. But he was worried for you." Temari pins her with a look of concern. "Were you okay?"
Several moments pass before Naruto understands what she is really asking her, and the blonde flinches at the meaning of her words. Did he hurt you too?
"Oh yes. Yes, I was fine."
Just then, the other girls come in and the topic is quickly changed to the very important topic of where the champagne glasses are and what everyone will be wearing.
Naruto feels strange not wearing her shinobi clothes.
The house is buzzing with women's voices. Naruto had taken a shower and now everyone is advising her what to put on. They all get drinks and have Naruto model outfits for them. Ino insists that she wears a short revealing dress, Hinata likes a long-sleeved top with pants, and Tenten likes the crop top. Different girls advise her on different outfits, they all giggle and hold their glasses up for cheers. Naruto finds herself smiling, her worries still there lowkey but the atmosphere is relaxing enough that she doesn't dwell on it.
After she has entertained the group's desire to dress her up, she decides to go with her original choice – a tank top with thin stripes resting on her shoulders, the cotton fabric hugging her breasts and showing off her collarbones and tan shoulders. Dark ripped skinny jeans that hug her sculpted hips and ass. She puts on some eyeliner, mascara and lipstick, fighting away an insistent Ino with a whole make-up kit and a set of fake lashes. Tenten wants to do her hair up to accentuate her collarbones and neck but Naruto gets out of it by reminding them that the guys will in the bar soon waiting for them. So she puts her hair down – Ino had already helped her straighten it with a brush and blow dryer.
"Damn, look at what a hottie we have a for a Hokage!" A tipsy Ino remarks and Naruto finds her own glass empty, a warm pleasant feeling spreading in her throat and chest.
"So, Naruto," Ino approaches with a mischievous glint, swishing the last sip of her drink in the tall glass. She throws the other girls a glance and giggles before continuing. "You know how Sasuke was the heartthrob of pretty much every girl, right? I can't say I'm surprised you two ended up together. So, here's my question for you - I'm sure at one point all of us have wondered what Uchiha Sasuke is like in bed."
Hinata blushes profusely and stutters "I-Ino-san", some girls giggle and some protest loudly with red cheeks that they have never wondered. Temari scoffs and rolls her eyes.
"What type of question is that?" Naruto's eyebrows are raised.
"Well, you know," Ino flicks a strand of hair away with a manicured nail, "we all assumed he was pretty asexual since he wasn't giving anyone the time of day. But now that I look back - and I'm sure the others will agree - actually his attention was always on you. I assume you're the only one who would know what he is like in bed. You can't blame a girl for being curious."
Naruto chuckles, amused by the bold question, but at the same time unsettled by the weird attention on her husband, and strangely feeling proud that none of them got to know that side of Sasuke. She notices that everyone is quiet and waiting for her answer, even the ones who insisted they have never wondered.
"You would have to get me a lot more drunk for me to answer anything remotely related to that."
Ino smiles and pours Naruto another drink. "Get you shitfaced - got it."
Naruto is buzzed with alcohol. She is swaying to the rhythm of the music in the club, the flashing lights and the mass of people create a scene she hasn't been in in a very long time. Long golden hair sways freely and brushes softly against her bare shoulders and collarbones. Naruto closes her eyes and sways to the rhythm of the music, raises her arms up. She feels the vibration of the loud music under her feet and inside her ribcage: it feels amazing to let herself go.
The guys are also at the club. Kiba calls for toasts often and they take shots or large gulps of their drinks. Everyone wants to get drinks for the birthday girl and Naruto doesn't protest anymore. Her Uzumaki chakra cleans the alcohol from her system fast – it really does – but everyone is toasting to her constantly and she feels buzzed, her limbs feel light and her chest in tingling. She's floating like a feather, a smile glued to her face. It was a great idea for them to come to a civilian bar – there is a smaller chance of people recognizing Naruto there and even if they did, she is in a group of friends and won't be approached.
Someone calls for another round of shots. The bottoms of the empty shot glasses hit the counter, the alcohol stings in their mouths and warms their throats. Ino approaches, her tiny dress leaving little to the imagination.
"So are you drunk enough to tell us now?"
"Tell you what?"
Ino smiles with excitement, "How is he in bed? Not to embarrass you, but people have seen and heard things, especially while on missions. He doesn't exactly hide it." Ino giggles and everyone is suddenly listening again, some acting pleasantly distracted.
The loud and rhythmic music makes Naruto loosen up on her previous reluctance. Her mind immediately explodes with very vivid memories of how passionate and dominant Sasuke is – their sexual relationship is the only healthy thing in their relationship, or at least it had been until a few weeks ago. She thinks how thorough he is, how he exudes power and dominance, how hard he thrusts into her and how his touch and eyes burn. How he marks her and completely possesses her. He makes her orgasm and break apart and then puts her whole again in the most blissful of ways to the point where she – the strongest shinobi – submits to him. Fuck, she really is so sexually frustrated right now.
"He," she starts, turning the empty shot glass between her fingers. A corner of her mouth twitches up. "Sasuke fucks the way he fights," she states - can't think of a more accurate way to describe it. Warmth gathers at the pit of her belly thinking about it. One glance at the others and Naruto sees that she could not have said it in a better way. They've all seen how Sasuke fights – merciless, thorough, tactful, always coming out on top. Always the alpha. They had all felt how the two's chakras collide together, how Sasuke looks at her and how he touches her.
The moment passes when Kiba comes and cheers and lifts Naruto on his shoulders to dance to the song. He raises another toast to Naruto, prompting everyone to drink for the birthday girl again. When Kiba lowers her to the ground again, she swings a little on her feet and heads for the bar, deciding that getting a glass of water is a good idea. There, Hinata is talking to her cousin Naoto and Naruto encircles both of their shoulders, prompting them to come dance.
"You need to show off your beautiful dress and gorgeous figure, Hinata-chan," Naruto pulls her arm and holds her hand up to spin her around as Hinata blushes. "Thank you so much, by the way. I'm really having an awesome time, Hinata-chan." Hinata flushes at the smile and sincere gratitude from Naruto, happy to have helped her friend.
"You're welcome, Naruto-san. Naruto."
Naruto dances with Hinata and, not so coincidentally, she guides them toward Kiba. Before Hinata realizes, Naruto is gone and the Hyuuga is blushing profusely but stays and dances with Kiba. Hinata gets what her friend did - bites her lip, the alcohol helping her become bolder, and dances with the Inuzuka.
Naruto goes back to the bar to retrieve that water she went there for originally. She thinks for a second that the bartender is looking at her weirdly, but quickly forgets about it when she sees again Naoto sitting at the bar, a flushed Tenten is leaning in and talking to him. Naruto watches the exchange as she sips on her water, unable to look away. She had always known the older Hyuuga to be pretty stoic, disciplined, loyal to a fault to his work. She'd never even thought to ask if he was seeing anyone - which realization again causes guilt to rise in her throat for being disconnected from the people who had done so much for her. Now that she thinks about it, of course he would be dating – he is a young, attractive, and accomplished man, surely he's not short on offers. Naruto watches as Tenten puts an arm on his shoulder and says something in his ear, then walks away to join the others at the dance floor after giving him one last glance. Naruto feels like she wants to ask more, know more, but knows Hyuuga Naoto is a very private and respectful person – he probably wouldn't tell her anything about his personal life.
"You're heading out, Naoto-san?" She takes big gulps of her water, watching Naoto get up and get his jacket.
"Yes, I am. I have that scouting mission early tomorrow. Happy birthday again, Hokage-sama."
Naruto rolls her eyes but smiles.
"You are just like your cousin Hinata. Again, please call me Naruto. Thank you for coming, Naoto-san" Naruto says sincerely and embraces him. "I appreciate everything you've done for me. Really." Naruto acknowledges the man has been a loyal shinobi, an excellent head of ANBU and even more, a loyal friend to her.
"You don't need to thank me. Supporting the village means supporting the leader. I can never pay you back for removing that cursed seal off of me and uniting my clan."
Naruto feels warm at his gratitude. After they part, she goes back to drinking her water, tracing a pattern on the wooden counter with her finger, allowing a moment to gather herself. She's deep in thought but at the same time not thinking about anything.
Then:
It hits her like electricity along her spine. Blue eyes snap up and she turns around, immediately finds dark black eyes in the swaying crowd. Sasuke is making his way through, his sheer presence pumping off him and parting the crowd. Something opens up and blooms inside Naruto's chest, seeing him here and present almost has her weak at the knees after weeks of cold shoulder treatment. Suddenly, she is almost in tears and forgives everything.
He is wearing a dark button-up and jeans and Naruto immediately feels fire in her chest, heat pools in her lower belly. He looks hot as all hell, the casual clothes turning him into a walking sex god. Sasuke is pinning her down with molten lava in his eyes - alluring, calling her in, and she has moved forward to meet him without realizing it, always drawn to him. In no time, she is standing directly in front of him, fingertips tingling with excitement at his familiar smell and the warmth radiating off his fit body.
"You're home."
"I wanted to surprise you. I saw your note at home. Happy birthday, Naruto." He is so close and the sight of Sasuke in jeans – so rarely, the outfit framing his strong body, has Naruto's eyes darkening. Reacts to him immediately, nothing before that matters now; sees a corresponding desire in his eyes. The dark orbs are on her, fully present, all his attention on her and only her; her very essence purrs and curls in submission and adoration for him.
"Come have a drink with me," she says and leads him to the bar. The others pause their dancing and conversation for a minute to look at Sasuke warily for a few moment. Everyone is drunk though and when Sasuke takes several rounds of shots with them, everyone relaxes and keeps dancing. Several shots later, and Naruto is literally on fire and can't take it anymore. Sasuke is in front of her: leans into the counter and traps her there, invades her space, dark eyes focused on her and unabashedly ravishing her body. Naruto might as well scream in delight of his desire for her, shameless hands travel up and down his chest and abdomen - he is strong and warm under her touch and so present. Her chakra screams for him, high and buzzing and overeager. His deep, calmer chakra embraces her, soothes her, makes her lean into him and give herself away completely. Only Sasuke could handle this side of her, only he can match her and satisfy her and make her feel safe enough to submit.
She sways to the music and Sasuke's hands burn on her waist, his touch – fire. He swings with her softly, eyes dark, now focused on her face and Naruto almost goes weak at the knees. The blonde can smell the alcohol on his breath – wonders if he feels the pleasant burn too. Takes his hand and guides him deeper into the dance floor. She sways against him, body brushing against his. She turns and presses her back to him, leans on him and rubs against him. Sasuke grabs her hips and presses against her, draws her hips up and his hard dick is rubbing against her ass. Sasuke hisses at the contact and Naruto's eyes roll back when she hears and feels his reaction. She plays with him - points her ass up more and rubs against his dick.
Sasuke is leaning into her, over her shoulder, appreciating the ravishing view of her chest. Hands slide up and down her sides and hips sensually. Hot breath on her neck and he grinds against her rhythmically.
A small nibble at the side of her neck – her weak spot – and Naruto's head lolls back over his shoulder, the Hokage moaning unabashedly. Sasuke's hot fingers now circle the rim of her top where it clings to her full breasts: when a finger dips in, Naruto thrusts her ass against him hard, a hand moves to grip at his denim-clad hip and bunches up the material there. Sasuke's fingers now dip in further, shamelessly, and press against her breast, mouth connecting fully with her neck. Sasuke is almost supporting her full weight now and Naruto is a hot mess, shaking with the need to be taken, her very essence roaring with readiness and need to be possessed.
The couple is so engulfed in each other they don't notice how the people around them are watching them, some cheering on the sensual display. Sasuke's hand travels from her breast up to dance over her collarbones - she shudders from being oversensitized, sparks of excitement shoot through her only to collect to an almost explosion when that hand wraps around her throat: her eyes immediately darken. He guides Naruto's head to lean further back over his shoulder, her eyes now almost closed and brimming with red.
Sasuke looks down into her eyes, simply states "You're mine." Something in Naruto screams – screams to be possessed.
"I am." Lips connect with hers, immediately her tongue darts out and meets his.
Sasuke's hand on her throat makes her arch and she moves her ass up more, grinds harder against him. She's fisting dark locks at the back of his neck as they kiss violently, Sasuke feeling her throat and the cords in her neck move under his hand. He lets her go then and she turns around, draws his mouth down on hers again. She sucks on his tongue and he holds her jaw, keeping her mouth open for the relentless invasion. A warm hand moves to her hip, harshly drawing her near to grind against her. Sasuke swallows her moans and they kiss hard, forgetting the club and the music and everything outside of how their bodies collide.
There is a mutual understanding floating between them that tonight, it's just the two of them. Sasuke grips her hard, holds her closely, drunk with the desire to remind her that he is her husband, the man she had given herself to, the only one who can give her what she needs. Nobody else would ever match up to the way they reacted to each other, to the union and bond between them, love and loyalty and devotion to one other.
They make out violently; Sasuke is shamefully hard in his jeans, angling her pelvis to rub the full erection against her core.
They part, both their lips reddened from the violent kissing. Naruto's jaw hurts and the ache is maddeningly pleasant. She holds his eyes – hands rubbing at his abdomen, and she swears she is about to reach into his jeans, fall down to her knees and suck him off right there. A particularly loud cheer makes them sober up some and realize that they are dry fucking with people watching.
Sasuke's dark eyes are molten lava on her skin. "Let's go home."
They rush through the night. The civilian part where the club is is close to the Uchiha compound. Yet, it takes forever for them to make it home - they keep stopping and making out against the walls of random buildings, unable to make the run home without the other's touch for too long. They're almost home when Naruto pushes Sasuke against a wall particularly roughly; draws his mouth down to hers and her hand is in his jeans, stroking his straining erection. He's hot and hard and big and Naruto knows exactly how hard to squeeze. Sasuke hisses at the contact and thrusts into her warm hand. Naruto watches him closely, lips tugging upward in victory.
"Shit Sasuke, you're so hard. Just say the words and I will suck you off right here."
She's nibbling at his jaw and Sasuke thrusts into her hand harder. He's letting her have too much control. He's growing impossibly hard, about to bust his load in the middle of the street.
Sasuke sobers up enough to yank the hand out of his pants and drag her toward their house. If they don't get privacy in about the next two minutes, Konoha's Hokage will be getting thoroughly fucked against the wall of a public school.
They barely make it to the porch and Naruto latches onto Sasuke again - pushes him against the wall and bites his lip before shoving her hot tongue in his mouth. Sasuke wants her now: grabs her hips and lifts her up. She thrusts against him as he carries her in, the last strands of his self-control are dangerously close to snapping.
"Fuck. Naruto. Quit playing around or I will seriously blow my load right now."
"Mmm S'ke" she nuzzles his neck and her hips ease on the thrusting just slightly. "Blow your load in my mouth."
Sasuke hears the lewd words and almost drops her on the floor of their living room. As if on command, Naruto falls to her knees and looks up at him, hands rubbing the huge bulge in Sasuke's jeans. Sasuke pulls his top off, reaches down to roughly take hers off too as she works his zipper. He grabs her bare tits as she lowers his pants impatiently to his hips and palms the giant erection through his boxers. There's a wet spot on his underwear where he's been leaking precum and Naruto feels her wet cunt twitch at the sight. Sasuke sighs and squeezes her boobs harder, then soothes them with a loving palm.
"Fuck Sasuke. You look so hot with that huge boner through your jeans. Just makes me want to swallow your cock until I choke and let you fuck my throat, make me fucking cry."
Suddenly Sasuke is pushing her hands away and gripping the base of his dick, hissing. Her dirty talk and the onslaught of stimulation had almost made him cum right there. He breathes heavily for a few moments, willing himself to gain some control back. Naruto rests her cheek against his leg, hands traveling up and down his thighs. Her blue eyes are playfully looking up at him, completely aware of the effect she has on him and reeling in a sense of power and satisfaction. This only angers Sasuke - fingers tangle in her hair and Sasuke draws her face up to his crotch. He rubs her cheeks against his harness and when she nibbles on it, he takes the full erection out of his underwear.
"Suck me off with that dirty mouth."
Naruto is on it before he even finishes and swallows the pulsing dick hungrily, her inside purring at the command. Sasuke hisses and his head lolls back; seeks support from the table behind him lest he slides down. Naruto is sucking his cock and tonguing him like she was made to be sucking dick in the sluttiest way. Sasuke leans an elbow on the table for support and fists her hair, his abdominals clenching with the strain to control himself, curses and praises fall off his lips. She swallows him almost whole then – his size is always a challenge that Naruto loves overcoming – and Sasuke's face contorts in absolute rapture. She rubs and sucks his full balls and Sasuke holds his breath several times, willing his orgasm away.
She's moaning around him and Sasuke looks down at her: his breath stops when he sees her rubbing her little clit violently as she deepthroats him vigorously. The sight of her getting herself off from sucking him off sends Sasuke over the edge and he grabs her hair with both hands; shoots a spurt after spurt of hot cum in her throat and mouth. He withdraws and a thumb presses on her chin, making her open her mouth. Cum dribbles down her chin and she looks at him with hazy eyes.
"You fucking got off on sucking my cock, didn't you? Moaning like a little slut from sucking me off." He collects the dripping cum from her chin with his fingers and rubs them against her ravished lips. Her tongue darts out and laps at the fingers. He shoves two fingers in her mouth and moves them in and out, watching her lean into him and suck like a pro. Her jaw aches from taking him in and her fucked out expression makes Sasuke gulp.
"I didn't know if you'd ever get me off with how long you were taking, Sasuke" she taunts. He sees the pretend coyness in his eyes, her tongue licking up the underside of his cock and watching him with insolent eyes, daring him. Sasuke can't take anymore and snaps.
"God I just want to make a mess out of you."
He draws her up harshly and drags her up the stairs to their bedroom. He stops right by the side of the bed and draws her close.
"You didn't know if I could get you off huh? Can't get you off? Funny how you say that when you're the one passing out from cumming when we fuck." He grips her throat with a strong hand, slams his lips on hers. "This is how you like it don't you? My hand around your throat and my dick fucking you deep inside."
"Fuuuuuuuuck S'ke." She holds the hand over her throat with her own. Rubs her pelvis against him and humps his legs, seeking friction to appease the twitching in her nether region. "I'm fucking dripping wet and I swear I will go insane unless you fuck me in the next ten seconds. I want it so baaaaad"
"Fuck," Sasuke breathes in deeply, "I want to make a mess out of you," he repeats and kisses her harshly. There is the same edge of violence to their fucking now as in the very beginning. The desire to battle mixed with sexual desire, violence mixed with pleasure and their skin is tingling with electricity and excitement. The recent abstinence, the animosity, the uncertainty is all erased when their chakras clash together, combustion in the air. They have denied themselves this for too long, caught up in the sorrows of life. Now, their blood burns for each other with newfound connection.
Sasuke grips the back of her neck and guides her to lay her torso on edge of the bed, ass pointing up. He caresses the round mounts before squeezing them hard and giving her ass a sudden slap. She yelps and jumps, but Sasuke holds her down.
"You get so wet from being handled roughly," Sasuke observes, rubbing his fingers against her wet slit. His fingers are glistening with her fluids – and so are her inner thighs - and skilled fingers move down to rub at her little clit. Sasuke is not gentle – knows Naruto does not want it gentle – and rubs her little clit until his hand is a blur. Naruto screams and just when she is about to cum, spasming and convulsing, Sasuke withdraws and caresses her ass cheeks. She protests, wiggles her ass to draw Sasuke back in. Sasuke spreads the taut ass cheeks apart and a wet thumb rubs over her pink asshole.
"I haven't fucked you here in a while, have I? I really shouldn't neglect any part of you." He spits on her asshole, rubs it with his thumb and she moans into the mattress. This is a job for another day though. Now Sasuke needs to will his shaking hands, get a grip. Sasuke pushes two fingers inside her cunt and then three, moving slowly and dragging along her G-spot. When Naruto's legs start shaking, Sasuke ups the pace and fucks inside her core with relentless speed. Naruto thrashes at the intense stimulation, screams as she cums and Sasuke takes his fingers out to rub her clit, his hand and her inner thighs dripping with her violent release.
She's breathing hard, melted on the bed. Sasuke rubs his warm hands up and down her body, kisses at the back of her neck. Her coming undone so violently has made him rock hard again; rubs his dick against her ass and back, giving her a second to catch her breath.
"Mmmm you're gorgeous," Sasuke praises, his hands caressing and soothing her oversensitized and twitching body.
"Ngggh Sasuke. Quit playing around. I need you inside me." She mutters, still reeling in her release. His dick is hard and engorged against her backside and her pussy is dripping. Sasuke is nibbling on the side of her neck exactly that one spot-
"Ahhh Sasuke! Fuck me right now or I swear- fuuuuuucckkkk-" Sasuke eases into her, her slick easing his entry.
"You're always so tight and hot for me," he sighs against her ear as he eases up to the hilt. Naruto is fighting to catch her breath again, controlling the urge to cum again from being stretched so thoroughly and filled so well right after a powerful orgasm. After not taking him for a while, the stretch makes her eyes roll back and she is arching up. Sasuke kisses the side of her neck and her cheek, small loving gestures to express what he can't in words. Sasuke inside her always makes her feel like her pelvis was on fire, every carnal instinct in her purring in satisfaction with being filled so completely. Fucked by such a powerful and dark man. Sasuke appeased her need to be taken, the secret desire of every alpha to submit. Naruto gives a thrust against him, trapped between the edge of the bed and his heavy hot body.
Sasuke's self-restraint snaps then and he thrusts into her violently. This is how they express their love, their passion for each other. He drives into her violently, she's thrusting back, wet sounds and moans filling the room and Sasuke draws her face up, their tongues meeting.
"Fuck, Uchiha. Is that all you have?" Naruto taunts. Sasuke growls - plants a foot on the mattress for leverage, angles his thrusts so his erection would rub directly against her sweet spot inside, adjusts her hips - and drills into her with the same force he fights with. It's a quick and dirty fuck, meant to give them release, both of them getting off on the edge of violenece. They need to get off together now, quickly and violently, before they can engage in each other more thoroughly.
"Yesss S'kee…nghh… I missed your fat cock… i-inside me- Fuck!" Naruto's legs are shaking and she cannot keep up with thrusting back anymore. His pace is too brutal now and she leaves herself to the mercy of his violent thrusts. His balls are slapping against her dripping cunt with every thrust. Sasuke draws back and watches as his thick erection is engulfed again and again by her willing and sultry body. Naruto leaves herself to his mercy and just holds on, the sheets tearing in her grip. Sasuke is merciless.
"Yeah? And what did you do without my fat cock?" Sasuke doesn't really expect a reply, too caught up in their fucking: he almost short-circuits hearing her answer.
"I - aaah! I rubbed my clit Sasuke, and I p-…. ahh I pushed fingers inside and fucked m-myself thinking about you. But it was never the same, never like you inside me...Aaahh I'm so close Sa-aah! please don't stop!" Her voice sounds pathetic and completely fucked out. Sasuke loses it at hearing the lewd confession, lifts her hips off the bed with strong arms and thrusts long and hard at a perfect angle.
"You're mine. You're only mine." He growls through gritted teeth, the Sharingan flares to life under dark furrowed brows. "Only I've had you this way. Only I will ever see you like this, have you like this. Do you even know what you do to me? How much I want you? I want to consume you fully. Only I have had you and I ever will. Take me. Take me inside you. Take me, take me, take me takemetakemetakeme"
Naruto's legs give out and Sasuke is holding her up, strong enough for the both of them. Naruto's thighs quiver and rub together as she cums again, third time in less than twenty minutes. Sasuke shouts loudly as she clamps down on him and convulses, cursing how tight she is, fucking her through her orgasm. He spills inside her, fucks several spurts of cum inside before steadying himself on one arm. He rolls to lay on the side, completely out of breath. Naruto falls to her knees, cum dripping out and down her thighs, gasping for breath. Their dirty and violent fuck was exactly the release they both needed.
They get up to shower, making out lazily under the warm spray of the water. They're calmer now, exploring each other more thoroughly and reconnecting with each other. Naruto is stroking Sasuke languidly and it's not long before his fingers trail down to her slit and he rubs her clit. Sasuke knows her body well – Naruto thrusts against his hand almost up to his forearm and grips at his shoulders. Sasuke swallows her moans and rubs her clit until she's shaking and he supports her up with the hand between her legs. He rubs slow circles against her core then, letting her calm down and kissing her throat. Their bodies fit so well together and react so strongly to each other, their coming together is always overwhelming and brings them shaking release.
The night is just beginning. They've been apart for way too long and yearn to reconnect with each other.
When they move back to the bed, Naruto is on her back and Sasuke caresses and kisses her knees.
"Let me taste you," his dark eyes are burning again. The earlier release has cleared the cloudiness in his and now they're dark, looking down at her with something deep and visceral. Sasuke parts her knees and slides to lie belly down on the bed, moves between her legs. His warm mouth kisses her thighs and Naruto is twitching, too sensitive from how much she'd cummed. Warm tongue laps at her clit. Tan fingers are pulling at black locks and Sasuke holds her thighs and pelvis still, not letting her thrust her pelvis on his face. Naruto is shaking when she props herself up on her elbows.
"Sasuke…this isn't fair, Teme. Let me taste you too."
Sasuke withdraws and moves to lie down on the bed. Naruto takes in the view – Sasuke sprawled on the bed they'd just fucked in, flushed and hard, his hair tousled with nice cherry lips wet with her essence. His erection is straining again, resting heavily against his hard abdominals. There is no way Naruto would ever get over how absolutely gorgeous Sasuke is - and the most attractive part is the dark wedding band resting on his hand, matching her own. This is her Sasuke right here – present, demanding, passionate, arrogant and overbearing, completely focused on her, passion and adoration and something deep in his dark eyes. No disappointment, no impossible expectations, no reluctance.
She almost decides to ride him right now, forgetting about taking it slow when she sees him gorgeous and ready like that. But she wants to give him attention and please him too – so she holds the heavy erection and gives a slow wet lick from the balls up to the tip. Sasuke is resting on his elbows, watching her with darkening eyes. How anyone thought this man was asexual was beyond Naruto. Every molecule of his being screamed with carnality.
Naruto sucks on the head and swirls her pink tongue around, hears Sasuke exhale softly. She cups his balls and takes more of him in when she feels hands encircle around her hips and suddenly Sasuke is lifting her up; positions her where she is over him and her core is over his face. Sasuke leans up and spreads her hips more, giving her core a lick. Naruto moans and her hand is shaking around the base of his cock.
"Keep sucking, Naruto. You stop – I stop." He warns and Naruto is immediately back on it. She rolls his balls with one hand and takes him deep into her mouth, massaging the rest of his dick with the other hand. Sasuke seems to approve and goes back to eating her out. Having cummed so much tonight, Naruto is twitching and shaking at every hard lick and when Sasuke moves to dip a finger inside, she moans and the tight seal of her mouth around his dick is broken. Sasuke stops his ministrations in warning to Naruto again, hand fisting her hair and guiding her back to sucking. She does her best to concentrate, sucking Sasuke off exactly how he likes it. The soft thrusts of his thighs into her mouth tell her she's doing a good job. She instinctively thrusts her pelvis against his mouth, seeking more friction, the feeling becoming unbearable. She moans around his dick when Sasuke adds another finger inside, tonguing her clit more harshly now. Naruto is shaking all over, riding his face but careful to not stop sucking him off. she doesn't think she'll handle it if Sasuke stops right before she reaches her climax.
Sasuke's hips are thrusting harder now too and Naruto rides his face hard, screams around his hard cock as she comes, mouth full of dick. Sasuke growls through her orgasm, fisting a hand in her hair and pressing her down on his erection, relishing in the vibrations her load screams create around his cock. Sasuke's eyes roll back at the feeling of her vibrating throat around his dick. He grips the sheets hard, trying to hold back his own orgasm.
Naruto melts on top of him and Sasuke caresses her back with long languid strokes. For a moment, he wonders if this was enough for Naruto and if she'd fallen asleep. She rolls to the side and on her back then, a lazy smile on her face; opens her arms to invite him in her warm embrace. Sasuke moves over her, leans in and kisses her face.
"Bastard… I wanted to ride you." She says with a tired voice and nuzzles his throat. Sasuke grinds against her abdomen lazily and caresses her body.
"Is that all for tonight, Hokage-sama?"
"Mmm," Naruto's eyes crack open. A hand slides down to fist around him and Sasuke's jaw tenses. Naruto spreads her legs and guides him inside. He eases in and they hold each other, kissing slowly and deeply. He holds her face and looks down at her, adoration and something deeper in his eyes when he pulls out and slides back in. Naruto sighs in content and nuzzles his throat, feeling light and floating with happiness at the outcome of today. She spreads her legs more and Sasuke thrusts, getting into a pace. He stays close to her, his weight making her feel secure and taken care of.
Nails dig into his biceps when he quickens the pace. He holds her jaw now, kissing her more harshly and deeply. He's looking into her eyes as if wanting to convey something with his actions that he couldn't voice.
"Naruto," he lets out in a strained voice. Naruto feels him growing harder inside her, spreading her more and his thrusts becoming irregular, his hips spasming. He's close and the thought of that, the sight of him ready like that, shoots Naruto to the edge too.
"Naruto, I… I…so much… you… ahhhh….always… so much"
Naruto hears the words he can't say, feels their meaning.
"I love you too Sasuke. Always."
Something breaks in Sasuke's expression, something painfully sincere flashes through the dark eyes that makes Naruto's own eyes tear up at the honestly in his face. His face falls to the crook of her neck and he holds her hips up, thrusting hard inside her now, his hips spasming and his rhythm breaking. Naruto feels the impossible stretch and it pushes her over the edge. Sasuke fucks her through her orgasm; cums inside her with husky moans.
Naruto blinks tears away as Sasuke moves off of her and to the side. There is nothing that could explain how they feel in that moment – completely connected to each other as if nothing bad has ever happened, their bond pumping with energy and connection again. Sasuke is looking at her with such an open and honest face and satisfaction and love pump through Naruto. Her chakra feels contained now, she is focused again and feels rejuvenated. For the first time in weeks, she feels sleep lull her peacefully, not scared of waking up miserable and in panic.
"You were my best gift today. I love you, Sasuke." She mutters a second before her breathing evens out and her whole body relaxes in deep sleep.
Sasuke looks at her softly, very much sharing the state she is in and reeling at their reconnected bond. He pushes a strand of her from her face and caresses her cheek. He would never give up on the woman he loves, he would continue battling with himself and bettering himself to deserve her love. He kisses her forehead and rests against the pillow. There would be no nightmares tonight – he's certain of it.
"Always. We're infinite." He whispers and holds her hand as he slips into a deep and peaceful sleep.
I really really appreciate you appreciating my effort and my art. Comments and kudos and feedback mean a lot to me.
