A NOTE TO ALL!: The third chapter (AKA what you are reading right now) has been re-revised and re-written in accordance with my own wishes. Horray for me. I am so sorry it has taken so long to update... but I do beg your forgiveness and hope that you are willing to stick with reading this fanfic. I shall do my best to please.

And now, since you have waited FAR too long already, the rewrite!

A shiver ran down my spine as if I had been touched by a ghost. The heated fingers that belonged to Uchiha Sasuke ran down my arms to gently embrace my hands. His tongue slipped softly into my mouth; both gentle yet forceful. Caught somewhere between frozen-in-shock and intrigue by my crush's abrupt passion, I allowed myself to sink deeper into the kiss. I was intoxicated by his every movement, touch and motion. Feeling his hot breath on my skin, I shuddered once more. Breaking my lips away from his, a gasp was ommitted from my mouth before I once again leaned closer. I craved only more of the one I loved and what he was offering. To my thorough disappointment, Sasuke-kun took half a step back; just far enough away so he was out of close contact. Blinking, I watched him with a mixture of worry and confusion.

"Wha... what's wrong?" I muttered, finding my voice hoarse from the unexpected choice of action.

"You are interested, Naruto?" Sasuke inquired, his usual smug and arrogant smile snaking across his lips. "Your face is totally flushed." More from embarassment than anything else, my cheeks grew even hotter. Chuckling to himself because of my reaction, the Uchiha Clan successor grinned. He seemed immensely proud of himself. Glaring at him in defiance, I found myself begin the first stages of irritance. He had too much control over me. "Shall I answer my own question then?" Without waiting for a reply, Sasuke once again placed his hands on each side of me, relaxing his body against the side of the apartment building. Leaning dangerously close, he pinned me in place so that, if I had had the strength or want to run away, I would not have been able to.

Breaking any further distance between the two of us, he leaned even closer. Sticking his tongue out of his mouth, he ran it suggestively along my lips. Caught off-guard, I was not sure how to react to such a gesture. Luckily, my body knew the appropriate response . Opening my mouth, I slid my own tongue out to reach his. They connected and a shiver ran down the length of my spine. It was fantastic; exhilerating; passionate. My mouth growing dry as the tip of his tongue brushed against mine, I pulled closer to press my lips against his; but he kept enough distance between the two of us that I was unable to get what I wanted.

Feeling the pit of my stomach burn in frustration, I continued to persue him; always trying to catch him off-guard by doing so. I never once succeeded. After several failed attempts, he took his right hand away from the building wall and pressed it against my chest. He absolutely refused to let his lips touch mine. The action of constant licking but never satisfying increased my ravenous hunger for more. At first, it was a huge turn-on; yet after several minutes, I started to grow annoyed with it. Pulling away, my eyes narrowed into slits as I glared at him.

"What the hell are you doing?" I demanded.

"Heh," Sasuke smirked again. "I already told you, Naruto: I am going to make sure you are interested in me. You wouldn't answer my question before, so I'll make sure your body tells me the truth." As he leaned in closer, I pulled away and moved from my limited space against the wall. Shoving past him, I could tell from the flicker in his eyes that he was taken aback by my actions.

"Stop fucking with me, Sasuke!" I demanded. Allowing my anger to take control again, I stared menacingly at the boy I loved. I expected him to lash out or be crushed by my words. Neither scenario occurred, however. Instead, the shinobi prodigy of Konoha-Gakure village stuck up his nose and turned his head with a resound 'hmmph!'

Although this reaction was characteristic of Sasuke's behavior, it still caught me off-guard. Mouth dropping agape, I stood in shock, staring at him. What had I done to warrent such a snobby response?
"You're pathetic, Naruto." Sasuke scorned.

"Nani!" I exclaimed. "Why?" Aggrivated, my fists clenched at my sides as my right temple pulsated. Glancing sideways at me, he studied me for several minutes. Becoming unnerved by this after a while, my body tensed up as I watched him in suspicion. What is he planning to do? I thought to myself. Ever since Sasuke had come out that he was dating Shikamaru, he had done nothing but play with my head. It was like a horridly dizzying game of cat and mouse: one that left me spinning after every turn. Sasuke was controlling everything; I had no power.

Yet again, Uchiha Sasuke did something that completely dumbfounded me. Although my guard was up, he managed to find and seize a weak spot. Jumping on it, he pushed me against the wall before he pressed his lips against mine again. There was more deliberate force involved in this action that left me reeling. Before my mind could refocus and take in my surroundings, his hands were travelling down my chest to my waist. My eyes flew open as I realized what he was doing. Trying to struggle, I was unable to get away. With one hand, he placed it against my chest to hold me steady. His other continued to trace along my waistline. Struggling harder, it was all the more evident that I was unable to break free. I did not know what Sasuke was planning; that alone scared me. What frightened me even more was the horror that would be revealed from his actions. He would clearly be able to see my body's response to his touch, to his fingers; to his every motion. He would know how much I craved him; even though I would not admit it.

Shutting my eyes tightly, a few tear drops collected at their base. Through my shaking body, I fought to control what my hormones screamed for. I did not want Sasuke to see my automatic response to his actions. I did not want him to control me any longer. As his hand teasingly travelled down my waistline towards my legs, I had a tiny window of oppurtunity. Leaping away, my clenched fist connected with his jaw faster than I had time to register. Caught thoroughly off-kilter, Sasuke doubled back several steps. After having the initial shock wear off, the ninja prodigy lifted his fingers to his lower lip. As he pulled his hand back, he looked shocked to discover blood.

"I told you... not to fuck... with me." I growled, breathing heavily as I glared flames at the one I loved. Utterly infuriated and disgusted by his sight, I turned once more to get into my apartment. This time, Sasuke did not stop me.
