Some citrusy stuff ahead, and not much plot X3

Backed Into a Corner

Sasuke sprinted down the halls to his shared dorm room and palmed the lock. He slammed it shut behind him, his anger mollified a tiny bit when the walls shook. "Naruto!"

His roommate leaped off his bed, looking plenty startled. It morphed into relief when he saw Sasuke, and he rushed to him to enfold him in a surprisingly tight and strong embrace. "Shit, Sasuke," he mumbled into the raven's hair. "You're all right. I thought I'd somehow killed you."

Some more of Sasuke's anger fizzled, and he melted into the unexpected embrace. For a moment he struggled against the urge to grab the blonde's face and kiss him senseless. Instead he pushed against the teen's broad chest until he was released. He gazed up into sky blue eyes filled with affection, relief, worry, and a hint of desire.

"Have you talked to Kakashi?" Naruto asked after a few moments of silence.

Sasuke made a vexed sound. "Yes. He said the Committee is deciding whether or not to expel you." He actually felt his lip curl away from his teeth in a snarl. "As if I give a shit what they want."

Naruto blinked, then a hint of caution entered his expression. "What are you gonna do?"

Reaching to him, Sasuke took his hands and turned to press his back to Naruto's chest, draping the Controller's arm across his chest. "I'm bonding with you. I don't give a fuck if they don't like it."

Those arms tightened around him. "What made up your mind?" the blonde whispered, pressing his lips to Sasuke's ear.

There were several things. The Committee being so against it was one. The Kyuubi was another, and he just knew this Controller would support his going after Itachi.

But the first thing he blurted without thinking was, "I like you." Then blushed. But he didn't take it back. It was true. He liked how Naruto challenged him. Pushed him. Made him better.

And he was a fucking fantastic kisser.

As if reading his mind, or perhaps spurred by the confession, Naruto grabbed his chin and fused their mouths together. Since he wasn't facing him the angle was awkward, but a little twist had him in the right position. He wrapped his arms around Naruto's neck and pressed against him, perfectly willing to participate in a moment of intimacy.

The kiss only lasted a few seconds before Naruto broke it, leaning back to look down at him with heated eyes. "You said I couldn't touch you again until we linked up in my third form."

Sasuke's stomach started fluttering. He swallowed. "I did say that . . ."

"And we've done that now," Naruto went on, leaning close again so their noses touched.

After a moment of nerves, Sasuke pulled back and sat down on the bed. "I want you to go down on me," he said, hoping he wasn't blushing, "then I want to try."

Lust made Naruto's pupils visibly dilate. "How about at the same time?" he suggested in a low, husky voice.

Just the thought of it sent heat racing southward. Sasuke tried to breathe normally, but his voice deserted him. He merely nodded, unable to help licking his lips. Naruto's eyes, already darker, instantly tracked the movement. His nostrils flared, and he stalked forward.

It wasn't the first time he'd seen this predatory intent, but now they were somewhere Sasuke could let go and enjoy it. And be more than a little frightened by it. As Naruto neared him, he eased backward onto the bed, leaning back on his elbows. Naruto grabbed his knees and tried to spread them, but Sasuke planted his foot on Naruto's chest and pushed him away.

He bit his lower lip, peering up through long lashes. "I wanna see you naked," he demanded, not at all pleased by how breathless he sounded but unable to help it.

The intent on Naruto's face reminded Sasuke of a wolf eyeing a lame fawn. It was disconcerting how quickly the teen went from fun, likeable, and obnoxious to dark, dangerous predator. It bothered Sasuke a little how much he liked it. It felt like he had no control over what would happen.

It was intensely exciting.

Naruto took the time to undo every button on his uniform shirt, then with an effortless shrug it fell to the floor. By now Sasuke had seen him without one, but his eyes raked over the blonde's torso with renewed appreciation. He had the body of someone four years older, and he suspected the Controller would gain another fifteen centimeters or more in height.

His skin also had an enticing golden cast to it, as if he spent much time in the sun.

A breath of a chuckle from his throat made Sasuke look up, and a dark smile had crossed his lips. "Thinking about how easy it would be for me to pin you down?" Low and soft.

I am now, Sasuke thought, swallowing thickly and feeling another pulse of arousal.

Naruto licked his own lips, but it was a slow and deliberate movement, not quick and anxious. He undid the button of his uniform slacks and slid the zipper down. It sounded stupidly loud in the small dorm. Then he hooked his thumbs in the waistband of slacks and underwear and pushed them down.

He didn't tease, so the sudden exposure of flesh made Sasuke feel like he'd been sucker punched. It distantly struck him as a stupid reaction. His eyes traveled up and down Naruto's body, and the unfairness of a few things really stood out. Golden skin stretched deliciously over taut, well-defined muscle in his shoulders, middle, and thighs. Sasuke's body was lean, but it hadn't quite lost the lankiness that accompanies teenage-hood.

But Sasuke's eyes kept drawing back to the apex of those strong thighs. He'd never seen another naked male; he barely paid attention to his own body. Naruto was only half aroused, but Sasuke could tell he wasn't freakishly big. Nor was he small by any standard. He had a feeling their first time would hurt (and didn't question the automatic assumption that he'd be the one taking it).

That whisper of a chuckle, then thigh muscle rippled as Naruto took a few steps forward. "You seem to like what you see."

Sasuke flicked his eyes up to the other teen's face, and the blonde looked more amused than anything else. He narrowed his eyes. "How did you get the body of a twenty-year-old man? Steroids?"

Naruto snorted. "Hardly. I just got good genes." He reached down and ran his palm down Sasuke's chest. "Leave the arm bands on. Take everything else off."

Supposing it was only fair they both be naked, Sasuke slowly obeyed. He shrugged out of his own shirt, pushing it off the bed. Then he wriggled out of the slacks and his boxer briefs. Then he laid back, legs demurely closed, knees drawn up. Naruto's blue gaze consumed him.

"For the record," he said in a strained voice, "I think you're much prettier than me. You're just so god-damned perfect."

The comment managed to be more annoying than endearing. Sasuke glared at him. "I am not. You're the one who said my personality sucks."

Naruto laughed out loud, climbing onto the bed on all fours over Sasuke. "It does. It's such a fantastic paradox because you're so cute and sexy. God I love it that you get all shy and cute when things heat up." He leaned down and placed stinging nips all along Sasuke's jaw on both sides.

"Y-you would too if someone looked at you like they wanted to devour you," Sasuke pointed out, wrapping his fingers around Naruto's upper arms and holding on.

Naruto groaned, nuzzling and nipping down the column of Sasuke's throat. "I do want to devour you," he hissed, tongue soothing every sharp connection of teeth. "I feel like some depraved beast. I wanna make you cry and cum until you're crazy with it."

Sasuke's breathing sped up until he was panting, eyes squeezing shut, fingernails digging into Naruto's arms. He was almost fully aroused without a touch to his groin. Just from words.

Teeth grazed along his collar bone before traveling upward and finding his pulse. Naruto sucked and nibbled at it, and Sasuke couldn't decide if it was unpleasant or not. Dimly, he thought he'd have another livid hickey. Then that tormenting mouth lifted off him completely. Before Sasuke could open his eyes to investigate, Naruto caught a nipple between his teeth.

"Hnngh, sto-stop biting me," Sasuke whimpered, squirming to make Naruto let go.

The blonde let go of his nipple, shifting back up to nudge his nose right under Sasuke's chin. He pushed up, then bit down right at the junction of his throat. His tongue swiped over it in apology before he finally reared up to fuse their mouths together.

Sasuke immediately bit his tongue in reprimand, which made Naruto chuckle through his nose. Sasuke opened his mouth to properly return the kiss, and their tongues writhed and fought for several moments before Naruto wrenched off and gave him a shaky grin.

"If I don't touch you right now, I'm gonna lose my mind," he said, grabbing Sasuke's arms and yanking him upright. Then he flopped down on his back, piling the pillows behind his head so he was propped up. "Turn around."

Sasuke felt the flush creeping up his cheeks. That would put his ass in Naruto's face. "What are you gonna do?" His voice felt weak.

"Something nice," Naruto said, grabbing the tube of lube from his bedside table.

Deciding it was too late now to go all shy and virginal on him, Sasuke hesitantly turned around and climbed over him. It was just as embarrassing a position as he'd thought, and he was glad Naruto could no longer see his face. He was sure it must be lobster red. He heard the lube cap pop, then a cold and slippery hand wrapped around his erection.

Embarrassment had in no way affected it, and Sasuke's arms buckled. He caught himself by the elbows, and this position was even worse. Desperate for a distraction, he curled his fingers around the base of Naruto's fully-aroused length and closed his mouth around the head.

"Fuck, Sasuke!" Naruto hissed, his own hand tightening around Sasuke.

It should have hurt, probably. It didn't. The pressure was delicious, and Sasuke's whole lower half twitched in reaction. He had to lift off Naruto to gasp in a shaky breath. The pressure on his arousal eased a bit, and that slimy hand started massaging and squeezing rhythmically. Sasuke worked up his nerve and started licking Naruto like a lollipop. It served the dual purposes of working up some moisture so his hand glided more easily and helping him get used to the taste.

Precum beaded up quickly, and Sasuke licked it off. It was a little hard to pay attention with pleasure building between his own legs, so he once more took the head in his mouth and sucked. Naruto groaned, low and deep, and a few more drops of liquid rewarded the effort.

The flavor was . . . different. Sasuke couldn't say he liked it, but it wasn't so terrible he couldn't get used to it. He suddenly wished he could see Naruto's face, to gauge the other's enjoyment.

Then something wet touched his anus. His yelp was muffled by his mouthful, and for half a second he couldn't figure out what had touched him. Then it happened again, and Sasuke's head flew back. A mixture of saliva and precum formed a thin thread between his lips and Naruto's erection before it broke. Sasuke didn't notice.

Naruto had just licked him. There. "Wha-what are you-nnnngh!"

The broad flat of the other's tongue swept up and down his cleft, so strange and dirty and embarrassing and Sasuke honestly had no idea if he loved it or hated it. Words tangled up in his throat, so contradictory none made it past his lips. Each swipe pressed more firmly, and Sasuke felt his anus beginning to twitch and spasm. He pressed his cheek to Naruto's thigh.

This was too much. WAY too much for their second sexual encounter. Around and around in his mind the thought spun. Where the hell did he learn to do this? The sounds Naruto's ministrations were wringing from him made him want to die. And then Naruto pressed the tip of his damn tongue right to center of the suddenly blossoming ring of muscle.

Sasuke almost screamed. He choked it off by biting down on Naruto's thigh. It wasn't necessarily so pleasurable he couldn't help himself. It was just so strange, so erotic, so fucking embarrassing . . . He felt Naruto twitch and hoped like hell he'd hurt the idiot.

Why wasn't he stopping Naruto? Why was he just letting him eat him out? That tongue probed deeply for a few seconds before withdrawing, then Naruto grazed his teeth over the sensitive ring before slowly driving back inside. Shakily pushing himself back up to his elbows, Sasuke grabbed the base of Naruto's erection and swallowed down as much as he could.

It prevented him from making any sounds except faint, choked moans. He figured he lacked all finesse, but he just couldn't concentrate. Naruto's hand stroked over his arousal, squeezing from base to tip, milking him, a delicious counterpoint to the tongue writhing inside him.

Cerebrally, he knew he didn't last very long. The stimulation was just too intense, too new, too much. Orgasm overcame him all at once just as the first pulse came from Naruto. Sasuke once more tossed his head back, and he distantly felt cum splatter on his chin and throat. It was a very distant sensation, washed away by the pleasure whiting out his vision.

After a while (maybe ten seconds), he felt Naruto lowering him to the bed. Opening hazy eyes, Sasuke tried to glare at him. A tiny grin flitted over Naruto's lips.

"That's somewhat less effective when you're naked and looking well-fucked in my bed."

He worked up a little more heat this time as he tested his arms. He managed to prop himself up on one elbow. "Do you even know what it means to take things slow, idiot?"

"No," Naruto answered without pause. "I want you. I want you all the time."

Sasuke's glare faded a little. "Are you an animal in heat?" he muttered.

Naruto grinned again. "I feel like it." Abruptly, he bounded upright and scooped Sasuke up into his arms.

Sasuke yelped. "Put me down, idiot!"

"Oh, come on. You're covered in cum. So am I."

"I can walk," Sasuke growled.

Another obnoxious grin. "You sure? You were shaking like a leaf the whole time I was rimming you."

Sasuke tried to punch him in the mouth. Naruto had to let go of him, and Sasuke leaned one hand against the wall for support. The blonde let him push past him, and he made his way into the bathroom. The sight of his reflection startled him.

Ebony hair mussed, falling in messy locks around his face. Eyes still a little glazed. Perspiration making his skin shine a little. And Naruto's cum streaked from chin to just below his collar bone. Wearing only the arm covers from his uniform, he looked . . .

"You're so hot," Naruto said.

Grimacing, Sasuke turned from the mirror and dug a wash cloth out to dampen under the faucet. He vigorously scrubbed his face and neck. The reaction seemed to bother Naruto, and the blonde hesitated as he accepted the cloth.

"Was that too much?" he asked softly.

Sasuke paused, gazing at him. Remorse was just beginning to bloom. He shrugged. "I've thrown myself head first into everything I've done in the last four years. Revenge, drugs, training." Then it was his turn to hesitate. "I liked it. But can we just . . . get comfortable with each other first? No one's ever touched me before you." Heat rose in his cheeks.

Only a few steps brought them close enough to touch, and Naruto pulled him into a gentle embrace. "Yeah. Of course. From now on, we'll go at your pace."

"I hope not entirely," Sasuke said, leaning back to meet his eyes. "I like that side of you."

Naruto gave him a goofy grin. "Really? I was worried I'd just freak you out."

Sasuke shrugged, reaching up and running his fingers through surprisingly soft golden spikes. "It's a little disconcerting, but it's . . . kind of exciting, too. I like knowing you want me so much." The admission brought another blush, but he didn't take it back.

His expression mellowed into something softer as Naruto leaned forward and touched their noses together. "I just want you to know, I'm gonna take real good care of you, Sasu~ke. I'll never let anything hurt you."

It was something of a foolish promise, given the nature of the adversity facing them. But for now, Sasuke just smiled and laid his head on Naruto's shoulder. The future could wait until tomorrow.
