Love Letter

Why do we have to go on a mission? Already, I miss you…already, I want you… I want to touch you and hold you and kiss you… I guess I'll wait till your watch… I won't get ant sleep anyway… not when I can't hold you… good night, my love…

Sasuke

Closing his notebook Sasuke looked up at the moon. 'It's time for his watch,' he thought putting away the diary and standing. He walked over to Naruto's sleeping form on the other side of the fire inside the cave. Kneeling down next to him, Sasuke glanced at Kakashi and Sakura to make sure they were asleep. When he was satisfied he placed his hand lightly over Naruto's mouth and leaned down towards the blonde's neck. Sasuke smirked and bit him.

"Mmph!" Naruto started, his scream stifled by Sasuke's hand. His eyes shot open and he set at up quickly trying to register what was going on before noticing the black-haired boy smirking at him with his hand still over his mouth.

"Morning," Sasuke whispered into the glaring boy's ear, before nibbling on it. Naruto's moan was stifled by Sasuke's hand and slowly Naruto relaxed into Sasuke's waiting arms, closing his eyes as Sasuke moved down to his neck. Sasuke smirked enjoying how the blonde melted into his arms.

"It's time for you watch," Sasuke whispered into Naruto's ear before removing his hand from the blonde's lip and kissing him lightly.

"Mm… don't wanna…" Naruto wrapped his arms around Sasuke's neck and kissed him back. Smirking, Sasuke made Naruto jump by biting his neck again then licking it softly to sooth the pain.

"I'll stay up with you and help you watch,' Sasuke whispered again in his ear before claiming his lips again.

"Mmkay…" Naruto said before kissing back hungrily.

"But we do have to leave the campsite before the other two wake up," Sasuke said pulling away and standing and standing and pulling Naruto up to him.

"Okay…" Naruto replied still in a haze from Sasuke kissing him. The blonde started to wrap hi arms around Sasuke's waist before Sasuke stopped his hands and pulled him out of the cave managing to not make any noise.

"You can see the surroundings better up there," Sasuke pointed to a cliff, a little bit above the cave. Naruto shivered a little in the cold night air but nodded, getting rid of the haze enough to let the night calm him. Sasuke led him up the rocks until they were at the cliff in a spot they could sit comfortably.

Sasuke sat down against a rock and Naruto sat in between his legs, cuddling Sasuke's warmth against his back. Sasuke wrapped his arms around Naruto in a protective gesture. Naruto placed his on top on Sasuke's and leaned back setting his head on Sasuke's shoulder.

"It's nice up here… the moon is beautiful…" Naruto said looking up at the night sky.

"Yes, it is but its better up here with you," Sasuke replied nuzzling Naruto's neck. Naruto smiled and stretched his neck so Sasuke could have more of it. Then, he closed his eyes and stretched out his senses so he could keep alert on the area while he enjoyed Sasuke's kisses and nips.

"I like it up here with you… I don't know how I spent so much time today not being held by you like this." Naruto said moaning as a shudder past through him. Feeling the shudder, Sasuke stopped because he didn't want to take things too far, and turned Naruto's head so he could kiss the blonde's lips softly.

"Me either, I wanted to be like this with you all day," Sasuke replied settling back against the rock, closing his eyes, and trusting Naruto to keep watch.

"Then why didn't you wake me earlier?" Naruto said rubbing his head against Sasuke's chin and cuddling against him closer.

"Because you needed sleep," Sasuke said yawning a little.

"And you don't? Go to sleep teme, I'll wake you if I need help or when it's time to change shifts," Naruto ordered him because Sasuke was trying to take care of him again. 'It's nice every once in awhile, but not all the time,' he thought.

"Okay, don't fall asleep and forget to keep watch, dobe," Sasuke said already starting to drift off. Naruto frowned a little and poked him in the ribs.

"Bastard," Naruto whispered back right before Sasuke's breathing evened out, showing he was asleep.

(ffnet sucks ass! (scene break)

"Sasuke… Sasuke…koi…" naruto whispered trying to get Sasuke to wake up and telling him who it was. Sasuke stirred when he relized it was Naruto and not just a dream. He slowly opened his eyes sleeply and looked into the blue depths of Naruto's gaze.

"What…?" Sasuke asked sleepily. He yawnecd then rubbed his eyes of sleep, then looked back at the blonde more awake.

"I feel two strong chakras skimming the outside edge of my range. I don't think they know we are here but it may be the girls we are looking for. They seem powerful enough and they haven't shown any signs of hostility yet." Naruto reported. By the time Naruto was done Sasuke was fully awake and using his Sharingan to try to see any possible danger.

"I'll go notify Kakashi and Sakura, you keep an eye on them and be careful," Sasuke said standing and pulling Naruto up with him. He kissed him lightly then jumped down from the cliff to the cave. He went in and bent down to Kakashi to shake him lightly when his hand was caught and Kakashi's eye looked up at him dangerously before recognizing him.

"What?" Kakashi asked letting go if Sasuke and sitting up, putting his hitai-ate on over his Sharingan.

"we have some intruders that might be the nins we are looking for. They are ten kilometers North from here," Sasuke reported standing. Kakashi nodded and stood as well.

"Wake her. Where is Naruto?" Kakashi said looking around.

"Outside keeping watch," Sasuke replied shaking Sakura lightly to wake her. She blinked up at him and smiled. He stood before she could speak. "Get up, we have work to do." He said briefly before turning and walking out of the cave. Sakura huffed but gott up and hand-combed her hair and followed Kakashi out of the cave.

Naruto saw Sasuke come out of the cave and jumped down from the cliff just before kakashi and Sakura came out.

"They have settled and stopped moving, thirteen kilometers that way," Naruto reported pointing to his right a little ways. Sakura glared at Naruto because he was ignoring her, but wondered why he was completely serious. 'He's never like this…except for that night… but even then he noticed me,' she thought with a scowl.

"Are they our targets?" Kakashi asked not sure if he knew or not.

"I'm not sure but they seem powerful enough to be even though they are somewhat hiding their chakra," Naruto replied. 'why am I being myself now? Am I afraid that it actually will be them? What will I do if it is…?' he thought.

"let's head out then. Don't pull attention to yourself, wait till I give the signal to move in on them after ive assessed the situation to find out if they are our targets." Kakashi ordered. They all nodded before jump into the trees to disappear into the forest soundlessly heading for the area Naruto specified.

"Kakashi, this was not funny. I'm going to kill you when you get back," Iruka said observing the objects he removed from the box with a bow on it. He glared down at the fur-lined handcuffs, whips, and other items before blushing and shoving them back into the box and shredding the card that came with it.
