NejiNaru told through a series of one-shots and drabbles.

Tangled Silk

He was drowning in a sea of black silk. It covered him, caressed him, swallowed him whole. It trailed across his skin in like a butterfly's caress, soft and ethereal. All he could see was the blackness as it moved through his vision, all he could hear was the sound of the shimmering flood, all he could smell was sweat and grass and something spicy.

A low chuckle sounded above him and the world spun into focus. The darkness lifted, trailing upwards as it trickled off of his body. Neji's porcelain face swam into view, smirking at the rapturous look on his partner's face.

Naruto growled low in his throat and tangled his hands into Neji's long hair, pressing the taller boy flush against his tan form. Neji growled in reply as he pressed his lips harshly against his partner's. They fought for a moment, reaching and pulling, until Neji's hair was so tightly wound around them that they were stuck together, warm and writhing as they still tried to fight for dominance.

"You are such a baka, tangling yourself in my hair."

Naruto smirked up, blue eyes darkening as he leaned up for a small kiss.

"You wouldn't like me if I were any different."

Neji smiled tenderly, his white eyes darkening to gray as he managed to prop himself up on his forearms without ripping his hair out.

"Idiot. Shut up and stop tangling your hands in my hair. This will take hours to fix."

Naruto's howl of laughter shook his small frame as Neji dipped his head down, capturing the small blond's mouth in his own until the laughter shook both their lithe forms, creating a comforting hum that melted them together until they dissolved into one liquid form. With a shaky smile Neji rested his head on Naruto's tanned shoulder, lightly blowing some of the spiky blond locks out of his face.

"Only you, you idiot, only you."

Naruto let out an equally shaky laugh as Neji's breath tickled his shoulder.

"Only for an arrogant bastard like you."

Thanks again for all of the great reviews! They really make my day, especially since I've been working TONS lately. Enjoy!
