Author Note: Hello everyone! Writing this chapter has been a TEST. So much has happened. I uploaded this on AO3 first, which ended up being on Sasuke's birthday AND the one-year anniversary of this story. ^_^ This chapter has fluff but honestly, it's mainly just smut. The next chapter will also continue with smut and fluff so be ready!

6:06 in the morning.
It was 6:06, and Naruto was dying.
Hinata snickered while she prepared her sewing kit, looking at Naruto fight his sleepiness. The client they were waiting for was a super early morning person and always asked for earlier appointments. They weren't sure how anyone could willingly be a morning person.
Orochimaru was a sugar baby, probably the most famous one, who always posted content about his life. He had an abundance of money at his fingertips and always picked Naruto over everyone else when it came to his outfits. He was genderfluid and wore dresses to tuxedos and everything in between, never bothering to fit any mold at all. They always accommodated him since he was one of the first clients to purchase from Naruto. Despite being eccentric, he was kind and always made for an incredible muse. He and Naruto threw ideas back and forth constantly, and Naruto enjoyed every time they met.
Except when it was this early in the morning.
"Sleepy?"
Naruto groaned, "Yes. I didn't even go to sleep early. I kept looking over the models, trying to decide which ones to use and what garments to pair with them."
Hinata bit back a yawn, "Have you had coffee?"
"I did, but it definitely hasn't helped. Did you get some sleep?"
She groaned, "No. Hima has been extra clingy for some reason, so she's been getting into bed with us. She kicks so much."
Naruto couldn't believe she hadn't slept when she looked so immaculate and fresh-faced. Not one piece of hair was out of place, and even her outfit was ironed.
"What if you're pregnant?"
Hinata paled and immediately shot the idea down, "There's no way."
"I mean, there is a way. You know how babies are made right?" Naruto wiggled his eyebrows.
She felt her eyebrow twitch and threw a teal pin cushion at his head, "Yes I know how babies are made, you dork."
Naruto grinned, "Just making sure. I could show you a porn video for a refresher if you needed it."
Her face pinkened, "You're so gross!"
The blonde rolled his eyes, "As if you and Kiba haven't watched porn together."
Hinata rubbed her forehead, "I so regret telling you that. I'm not drinking wine coolers around you anymore."
"Suuuuure."
An excited new voice joined them, "Are we talking about porn here?"
Orochimaru entered the room in a simple black Chanel romper, his hair in a tight ponytail and sunglasses perched on his head. He was tall and every bit as glamorous as his social media feed. The man probably didn't need any filters when he looked that good.
He handed each of them a drink, "I brought some green smoothies because I know Naruto doesn't eat breakfast." He pointedly looked at the blonde before moving his gaze to Hinata, "Wow, well you are glowing dear."
"I think she might be pregnant."
Orochimaru clicked his tongue, "So that's why you're talking about porn. Did you have a steamy rendezvous with the husband?" He took a seat on a lavish byzantium purple and gold chair. He was ready for the gossip.
"No!"
Orochimaru pursed his lips in thought, "You did tell us that one time – "
"You were there!?" Hinata gaped. She really was never drinking wine coolers near them.
"Of course, we were celebrating one of Naruto's fashion shows."
Hinata grumbled to herself as she put her face in her manicured hands.
Orochimaru cocked his head, "Speaking of – have you decided if you were doing Fashion Week Milan Naruto? It's coming up soon."
Naruto nodded, "I'm going over the models trying to see which ones would go best with which designs. Want to look over it?"
Orochimaru's eyes sparkled in delight, "Always!"
Naruto trusted Orochimaru's judgment. He had a keen eye and knew Naruto's work the best. He was always respectfully honest and didn't mind giving his opinion on what he thought. As Orochimaru went through the pictures and Hinata muttered to herself, Naruto thought back to how this weekend was going to go. It was Friday, which meant Sasuke would come over tonight and spend the weekend. After the last time, he knew that they were going to have sex tonight. Possibly the whole weekend too. He was nervous yet excited. The thought of being able to taste Sasuke. Thinking of how he would look like and how his body would feel pressed against him. It made his palms sweat, and his heartbeat speed up.
They had been messaging all week, not necessarily dirty texting but flirtatiously talking about how this weekend would go. What they would do (or try to) and what they would eat (besides each other). Naruto didn't want to get too into his thoughts in front of Orochimaru and Hinata. Or worse, he gets a boner. He'd never be able to live it down. It would beat Hinata's porn story.
Instead, Naruto sipped on his disgusting green juice, not even trying to hide the fact it was awful.
Orochimaru handed the papers back, rolling his eyes when he saw Naruto's face, "You're so dramatic. But! I think you made a great choice with the models."
Naruto beamed, "Thanks! Now – let's get to work. What do you need done? Are we doing something fun? Formal?"
"It's my sugar daddy's ex-wife's birthday. I want to go as if I'm going to her funeral." He smirked, "I want her to wonder how a man was able to seduce her 'straight' ex. How much he loves this boy pussy – "
Naruto spit out his drink – "That is quite the theme, wow."
Hinata pressed her hand on her chest, "You're going to need something stunning."
As a sugar baby, Orochimaru had high standards. He refused to be a sidepiece. He was only the 'main bitch'. No one could ever say he took part in any affair, and he made sure to state his boundaries. The men had to be unmarried, and if they had kids, they needed to be fully grown. He was not there to wreck anyone's home life. He had been seeing his current sugar daddy for the past three years and the new diamond necklace around his neck showed they were going strong.
Orochimaru pulled out a drawing from his plum Hermés Kelly and handed it over to the blonde, "I hope this drawing gives you an idea."
Sapphire eyes took in every line and curve. He showed it to Hinata, who beamed.
She clapped her hands in excitement, "Incredible. You would look drop-dead sexy in this. Sexy and classy."
Orochimaru beamed, "Yes! You get my vision. I'm so excited."
"Let's get you measured," Naruto stood up from his chair, trying to hide the green smoothie behind the lamp.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes until Naruto grabbed the smoothie, then huffed, "I probably measure the same."
"Sure, yet your ass constantly grows," Hinata giggled.
"Okay fine." Orochimaru stood up, and they got to work.
Naruto paced around the house, cleaning every trinket he could find. Sasuke had mentioned he would be stopping by soon. The nerves were killing him, and he tried to keep busy to take them away. He'd showered already so he didn't want to work up a sweat, but he had a bunch of nervous energy around. He wiped down the mirror in the living room for the third time while deep in thought.
It had been a long time since he'd slept with anyone. He wasn't one to have one-night stands, and his last relationship ended two years ago. He didn't want to think he was rusty at sex, but he worried he wouldn't be good. What would Sasuke like? Did he like head? Did he like to get eaten out? Were there positions he didn't like? Was he into kinks?
Am I into kinks?
He'd never had a chance to explore any of these things. He never felt safe or secure enough to even begin exploring kinks.
He started getting too into his head, and his thoughts began wandering. How was Sasuke's sex life with Sakura? Was there something that Sakura did in particular that he liked? Did she wear lingerie? Did she blow his mind? He looked at himself in the mirror, he was wearing gray woolly shorts (that might accentuate his package) and a thin black v-neck. He hadn't bothered to do much with his hair, since if the night went how he imagined it would get messy anyway.
Would Sasuke want him to wear lingerie? Would he even look good in lingerie? He shook his head, there was no way.
Sasuke stood outside the front door trying to give himself a pep talk, which in any other situation would sound ridiculous but right now it was surprisingly helping him. He hadn't slept with a man in a very long time. For the past week, he'd started fingering himself, imagining what it would be like for Naruto to be inside of him. How the stretch and the depth of every thrust would feel compared to his fingers. How it would feel to have Naruto's warm hands wandering around his body and his deep groans in his ear.
Okay, he needed to stop the train of thought before he got a hard-on outside of Naruto's front door. He rang the doorbell.
Naruto quickly opened the door, beaming when he saw Sasuke giving him a small smile.
"Hi." Sasuke leaned forward, cupping his cheek and kissing him in greeting.
Naruto couldn't even remember what he'd been worried about in the first place. He knew that they would figure it all out together, just like everything else. They were working on communicating better and so far it had really strengthened their bond.
"Well, that was a nice hello kiss."
Sasuke shrugged, "I missed you."
Sapphire eyes softened, "I missed you too." He grabbed Sasuke's bag, "I'll put this in my room. Have you already eaten?"
"Yeah, you?" He followed behind, unable to take his eyes off Naruto's ass. Those shorts did nothing to hide the curve and plumpness of each buttcheek. His eyes trailed down and looked at each muscular thigh and calve. Fuck.
"Yeah, I already ate." Naruto set the bag on a lounge chair, turning around and catching Sasuke in the middle of darting his eyes away. Sasuke had been checking him out. He had to admit that the action made his confidence bloom. He pretended he hadn't seen anything and sat on the bed, subtly spreading his legs.
"Do you want something to drink?"
There was something crackling in the air, the sexual tension skyrocketing, and they couldn't look away from each other. It was a pull beyond anything they could ever explain. The world blurred around the edges, where the only thing Sasuke could do was walk forward and stand before Naruto. His heart was pounding, this was it, and he was fucking ready. He wanted this more than anything else. He was –
Naruto stood up and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, immediately claiming his lips. Sasuke carted his fingers through Naruto's hair, angling him where he could devour his mouth. Naruto grabbed his hip, pulling him towards him, and Sasuke took the opportunity to push him down on the bed. He climbed on top of Naruto, unable to take his lips away.
"So I'm guessing nothing to drink?" Naruto smiled into his mouth.
Sasuke snorted, "Later." He kissed his cheek and ran his tongue over Naruto's sharp jawline, making his way down to suck on the tan skin of his neck. It was the weekend; Naruto wouldn't be going to work, which meant he could leave as many marks as he wanted. They didn't have to leave the bedroom at all.
Naruto slid his hands under Sasuke's shirt, running them over his spine and giving Sasuke more access to his neck. He groaned when he felt Sasuke's teeth sink into the skin. The man was practically feasting on him. He shivered as Sasuke got closer to his collarbone, making the brunette smirk.
The blonde got impatient with Sasuke's teasing and flipped them over, taking his time to remove Sasuke's shirt. He took in every inch of Sasuke's creamy skin. The pebbled nipples, angles of his abdominal muscles, the rise and fall of his chest, and the line of hairs going into his waistband. He unbuttoned Sasuke's jeans and noticed he wasn't wearing any underwear.
"You're not wearing underwear?" Naruto blushed, his throat suddenly tight and unsure why the thought of Sasuke going without underwear made him hot and bothered.
"I didn't want to waste time." Sasuke ripped Naruto's shirt off, trying to remove his shorts as well. He pulled Naruto towards him and started kissing him again. He felt desperate to feel Naruto's hot skin rub against his. To feel the slide of their cocks.
"You don't have to prepare me, I did it already," Naruto spoke between breaths.
Sasuke leaned back slightly, "What? I prepared myself."
They both looked at each other for a beat and burst out in laughs.
"Well, that just means we have to do it multiple times." He pulled Sasuke towards him, "Shouldn't be a problem."
"Not a problem at all," Sasuke murmured. He gently prepared the blonde until Naruto's voice broke.
"Sasuke – I need you inside me right now," Naruto's voice was desperate with need. The past days, weeks, had practically been a tease. He had been fantasizing about this moment and he couldn't wait any longer.
Sasuke wasn't sure if time was moving fast or slow. Only that he needed this more than air itself. Naruto could have all his air as long as he could remain in this moment longer with him. He slowed his hips, letting Naruto feel every inch of him. Each caress, inside and out, made Naruto climb higher. How was it possible to be fucked so deliciously and cherished simultaneously. Sasuke pounded into him and gently caressed his cheeks, running a thumb over his lips.
Naruto's eyes twinkled like starlight in the flickering lamps, and Sasuke was intoxicated.
Naruto had him in the palm of his hand –
– and Naruto had never felt so secure in someone's arms.
"You're so perfect, Naruto." Sasuke gripped his hip and pressed himself deeper, "I never ever want to leave."
Naruto interlaced their fingers and kissed the palm of his hand, "Then don't."
Sasuke returned the gesture, kissing each finger, "Never."
Naruto was drowning in every touch Sasuke gave him. There were moments when he felt he wasn't in this plane of existence anymore. Was this what sex was supposed to feel like?
"I don't know, I've never felt this." Sasuke couldn't look away. He couldn't understand what was happening.
It was like –
Naruto didn't realize he'd said it out loud, but Sasuke's response made tears want to swell in his eyes. From pleasure? From emotions? Maybe a combination of both.
– their souls were joining.
Naruto was the sun of the land, the very brightness of everything good, and Sasuke wanted to be burned. He wanted to burn this feeling of being inside Naruto for the first time and these emotions inside his heart so he could never forget. Wanted it to scar over and open again and again with each moment in Naruto's arms and body.
He wasn't sure what was exactly happening, Naruto felt drunk. He was drunk off the very presence of Sasuke. The man who completely changed his life from the moment they had met. He pulled on dark locks, feeling Sasuke's cock swell inside him with a grunt.
They were dripping in sweat, and Naruto's beautiful hair was haloed around him on the bed. Sasuke pumped Naruto's angry erection, zeroing in on the clear liquid dribbling out. He swiped his thumb over it and sucked it. It was the very essence of Naruto, and he wanted to swallow his cock whole just to taste it at the back of his throat.
"Oh fuck, that was so hot." Naruto groaned.
Sasuke smirked, "That I tasted you?"
"Ye – yeah." Naruto twisted his hips and pulled on Sasuke's nipples.
Sasuke bit his lip, "I want to drink your cum."
Naruto gasped, "Fuck!"
Sasuke couldn't even believe he was dirty talking. He had never done it but seeing Naruto's reaction made him want to spew filthy things about all the things he wanted to do with him.
He murmured in Naruto's ear, "I want to fuck you against every surface of your house. Until you can't be in here without remembering it."
"Do it. Fucking do it." Naruto pulled him closer, "Cum inside me."
"Fuck – yeah. Fuck." He angled his foot on his bed, pushing Naruto back with furious pounding. "Hnng – fuck you take me so good Naruto."
"Oh god yes – right there – don't stop Sasuke."
Sasuke was losing his mind. He was barreling over the edge, and he wasn't sure if he could return from it. Wasn't sure if he even wanted to. He wanted to dive into the riptides of pleasure with him until their souls blended together, and there would never be a way to separate. He felt a vicious possessiveness blooming in his chest. That Naruto was created for him and only him.
Naruto wrapped his arms around Sasuke's neck and kissed him slowly. It was a sharp contrast to the movement of their bodies, but it was utterly perfect. His eyes rolled back as he felt the coil in his balls, he was right there – right –
"Sas – Sasuke – fuck! – "
He came copiously between their bodies, and the feel of the warm cum – the flutter – it was –
"Fuck yes yes!" He filled Naruto to the brim, cum leaking from the sides, and he would have been embarrassed if he wasn't so blissfully high. It took a while for the waves to pass, but eventually, they lay there gathering their breaths. Sasuke murmured praises into Naruto's hair, telling him how perfect he was. He cleaned them up, ignoring Naruto's whines that he wanted to do it instead.
Sasuke brought their foreheads together, "Let me take care of you." His voice was so earnest that it left Naruto speechless.
"Okay," Naruto whispered.
He smiled so beautifully that Naruto almost lost his breath. It was a sincere and pure smile. One that spoke volumes of how much Sasuke adored and cherished him. How much the brunette just wanted to pamper and care for him.
Naruto had never had that in his life, and he felt himself let go.
The following morning Sasuke stirred awake to cheerful hums. He cracked an eye open and gazed at Naruto, putting on orange eyeshadow and eyeliner. He had obviously showered without him, which he would have complained about if he wasn't so sore. He fought the urge to fall back asleep, Naruto's supple mattress trying to lull him back to sleep. Yet he couldn't wipe off the urge to get up. He wanted to spend every waking second he could with the blonde. The night before was beyond anything he could have imagined. The passion and the pleasure interweaved to the point that he felt his soul burn. The way he wanted Naruto was almost terrifying.
Naruto tiptoed around the bed, and Sasuke huffed in amusement, "Are you actually tiptoeing?"
Naruto startled gently before he grinned, "Shut up! I didn't want to wake you up."
Sasuke sat up, maroon sheets falling down around his waist. He glanced down at his naked chest and stomach, littered with marks. "Wow, you went hard."
Naruto blushed, "You did too!" He lifted his shirt so the brunette could see the marks on his skin.
"I see," Sasuke licked his lips. He reached over, trying to grab Naruto, who darted out of the way.
"Nope. You have to eat first!"
Sasuke fought the urge to pout, because he does not pout, "Why not?"
"Because I like cooking for you."
How could he argue against that? He knew that Naruto didn't have many visitors, so of course he'd want to have someone to cook for.
"Alright, I'll go shower while you make food."
Naruto grinned and headed straight to the kitchen to start cooking. Sasuke took his time stretching his body. He rolled his shoulders, releasing the tension and feeling the slight sting from Naruto's nails. Images from the night before flashed in his mind and he wanted to just grab Naruto and do it all over again. Instead, he forced himself to get in the shower.
Karin's words returned to him as he was showering – it should feel electrifying. It should make your toes curl and be breathtaking. She was absolutely right. It was beyond different. He could see fucking Naruto (or being fucked) against the wall, on the kitchen counter, the couch, hell maybe even… a car? The thoughts thrilled him to the core.
Naruto was intently focused on making an omelet when he felt Sasuke's arms wrap around his waist. Flutters of kisses trailed down from his cheek to his neck and he fought the urge to giggle.
"You're distracting me while cooking. That's pretty dangerous." Naruto teased.
Sasuke murmured in his ear, "We can turn it off."
Naruto sent Sasuke a sly smile, "Don't we need food for energy?"
"Hmm, good point." He patted Naruto's butt, "Hurry up."
He heard to blonde laugh as Sasuke helped make some coffee.
They watched TV on the couch as the food settled, Naruto's legs over Sasuke's lap. He massaged Naruto's feet as nails scratched his scalp.
"You're going to make me sleepy," Sasuke sighed in contentment.
Naruto gently pulled Sasuke's hair, "Wake up then."
Sasuke's eyes flashed and his voice dropped an octave, "Pull harder and I will."
They held eye contact as Sasuke felt another tug and he tugged on Naruto's feet to make the blonde straddle him.
Naruto settled on his lap, muscular thighs squeezing him. He pulled Sasuke's hair again to test his reaction and he was rewarded with a deep groan.
Sasuke cupped his face and dove in, tongue immediately welcomed inside. Their lips were still swollen from the night before and the kisses grew in intensity. It wasn't like the night before, this was driven with carnal fire. A scandalous idea formed in Sasuke's mind and he stood up, Naruto's legs wrapped around his waist.
He walked them over to the giant golden mirror in the corner of the room, biting Naruto's lips, "I want to fuck you against this mirror."
"Yes, fuck yes." Naruto hopped off and turned around, immediately searching for Sasuke's mouth again. He placed his hands on the mirror when Sasuke pushed them closer, letting Naruto feel every inch of his hard cock against his plump ass.
Sasuke's voice dripped with lust, "You make me so hard, you drive me crazy."
Naruto couldn't even form words with the smoldering gaze Sasuke was sending him through the mirror. He lost his breath at the amount of want. He'd never been looked at like that. It made him feel powerful and borderline seductive. Last night before he fell asleep Sasuke had told him this was all a first for him too and he believed it to the bottom of his heart. His dorky Sasuke had turned into a ravenous beast.
A hand slid under Naruto's shirt, caressing his stomach and sliding down into Naruto's shorts. Light fingertips traced over Naruto's cock, making it twitch, almost as if urging Sasuke to grasp it. Naruto was already leaking. He slid Naruto's shorts down, throwing them to the side and removing Naruto's shirt as well.
Naruto pouted, "Now I'm the only one naked."
Sasuke sucked on his throat and held Naruto's gaze through the mirror, "Because I want you to see what a work of art you are." He ran his hands over Naruto's broad chest and clavicle, "You are the most gorgeous person I have ever met." He traced Naruto's bruised lips with his thumb, "Your eyes, your lips, your cheeks. Everything about you is beautiful."
Naruto's heart hammered in his chest as the words sent a shiver up his spine. He felt both turned on and emotional. Sasuke was looking at him like he was a priceless art piece. One that he couldn't believe he was able to touch. He desperately wanted more. He wanted Sasuke to be in him, to keep saying those praises and drive him wild. Wait – did he have a praise kink? He filed the thought for later.
He took Sasuke's thumb into his mouth and sucked, swirling his tongue around it and nipping it softly. Sasuke groaned at the erotic display and decided he needed more too. He couldn't hold off anymore. "Keep your hands on the mirror, I'll be back." He walked off to quickly get the lube, leaving Naruto waiting for only for a few seconds.
He closed his eyes, not wanting to look at himself naked in the mirror. He felt awkward doing that, not used to detailing his body in this way, yet when Sasuke said those things, he believed it. He felt it.
The popping of a cap drew his attention and he felt lubed fingers trace his opening as Sasuke kissed his shoulder. He searched for Sasuke's mouth, kissing and biting his lips as Sasuke took the time to stretch him. Despite Naruto still being stretched from the night before, Sasuke continued to take his time. He wanted to rile Naruto up and make his patience snap.
It didn't take long for Naruto to become annoyed, pushing back and grumbling for more. Sasuke snapped when Naruto bit his neck, making sure to make it hurt.
"Fuck!" Sasuke slid his sweats down, not bothering to remove them all the way. He'd had enough teasing, and he was borderline desperate. His cock felt heavy and like he was about to bust at any moment. He adjusted Naruto, leaning him towards the mirror and spreading his legs. He started sliding in and Naruto grew impatient, immediately pushing back until Sasuke was buried deep in him.
"Fuuuuck." Naruto moaned at the stretch, "You feel so good Sasuke."
Sasuke grabbed Naruto's hips and immediately started pounding into him, "I'm going to fuck you against this mirror until you cum all over it."
"Yes yes yes," Naruto spoke in between the breaths being fucked out of him.
The tenderness from the night before was gone, leaving only pure lust. Sasuke wanted to make Naruto sob with pleasure. He pinched and twisted each of Naruto's rosy nipples, tugged on the blonde's smooth balls, and teased the head of the dripping cock. He rubbed the head with his thumb and brought it to Naruto's mouth.
"Taste yourself, taste how utterly delicious you are."
Naruto ran his tongue over the slightly salty taste, he'd never truly taken a moment to taste himself. Always finding the action kind of gross but now, in the heat of the moment and with Sasuke's growled words, it fucking turned him on. He'd taste himself over and over again if it made Sasuke fuck him like this. The brunette had thoroughly coated him with lube, and the squelch of each movement sounded filthy. This is what Naruto wanted. He wanted Sasuke inside him, around him, everywhere.
Sasuke lifted Naruto's muscular leg, noting how easily he could adjust the angle with Naruto's flexibility and slowing down, letting Naruto feel every movement painfully slow.
Naruto whined and pulled Sasuke's hair, "No no no – don't stop keep going!"
"Open your eyes," Sasuke growled. He grabbed Naruto's throat, moving his head so he could look at himself in the mirror closely. Mascara was running down his flushed cheeks and his eyeshadow was beyond smudged. Naruto looked so beautiful and debauched. His cock an angry red and bobbing with every thrust. Tears beading down sapphire eyes hazed with pleasure. Tan skin littered with marks.
Sasuke kept his gaze, "Look at you, you're mine. Only mine. Only I can see you like this." Sasuke moved his throat to the side and plunged his tongue into Naruto's opened mouth. Sasuke knew they weren't going to last any longer. The blonde kept squeezing around his cock so tightly it was going to drive him over the edge any minute.
He grabbed Naruto's cock, smearing the delicious fluid all over, "Cum for me baby." He started pumping quickly, making Naruto unable to decide which of the dual sensations was winning. He threw his head back, his eyes rolling back as ribbons of cum smeared the mirror.
The moment the first ribbon spilled on the mirror, Sasuke let go. Letting the fluttering of Naruto's orgasm suck the cum out of him. He pumped Naruto's ass full of cum, the thought of watching it dribble out, passing through him and making another wave of pleasure wash over him.
He opened his eyes and saw the debauched blonde look at him through hazy sapphire eyes. He looked high off of pleasure, and Sasuke felt pride bloom in his chest for being the only one to ever see this. He wanted to go again, though he knew they needed a small break. Sasuke felt insatiable. It was like every time he saw and tasted the blonde's cum he was recharged again. He wanted to see what noises he could pull out of him. He wanted to test Naruto's flexibility. Wanted to know how Naruto would look with his cum smeared on him. There were so many things he wanted to do.
And it was barely Saturday afternoon.
