"Sasuke?"

His shy question shatters my thoughts. "Na-Naruto" I choke out.

We can't look each other in the eyes, barely managing to greet each other.

I've really screwed up. I look at the ground my cheeks blazing. Now he's sitting beside me and I can't breathe.

"Sasuke..." he starts and doesn't finish.

You could cut the tension with a chainsaw.

It's time to say something. Anything. I take a deep breath and turn to look at the blonde now sitting beside me.

"Naruto I'm sorry..."

He looks away

"So terribly sorry. I couldn't stop myself..." I trail of, and he can't even look at me. So I look away too and fight against my tears.

"I know the feeling" barely a whisper.

I swerve my head with impossible speed. He has a dead, haunted look in his eyes. Like he's seeing through me. That look makes me nauseous; even then I don't turn away. Staring straight into my eyes he raises his hand mechanically and runs his hand through my hair with amazing tenderness.

As if a door had been opened a wild hungry insane passion ran through me and we kissed again. I hardly felt when my back crashed against the tree trunk as Naruto pinned me. I was too focused on having him to care about our surroundings. I was spinning in a violent whirlpool of kissing groping and hanging onto each other for dear life.

Then we felt the need to breathe and he broke off leaving me gasping with raw lips.

I stretched and found a more comfortable position I settled into. Naruto then nestled into me like a kitten. "Looks like everything's gonna be okay"

I smile.

He's right.
