A/N: You guys aren't going to believe this, but—I went to an Anime convention over the weekend, and I went to this yaoi conversation group thing there, and—well… I realized that yaoi is really wrong. I realized I really don't like it, so, I'm really sorry, but I'm going to be changing this fic. It's going to become a SasuSaku, probably, and I haven't decided who I'm going to pair Naruto up with yet. Possibly Ino, I don't know. Again, I'm really sorry about this, I didn't mean for it to happen, but… yeah…
----------------------------------------------------
So, ten bucks says a few of you rolled your eyes and didn't believe me, another couple of you fell down dead, and some of you didn't know whether I was joking or not. I hope I didn't lose any readers who stopped reading this author's note after I said I was changing it to a SasuSaku. :sweatdrp: lol. I was, indeed, kidding. I DID go to this yaoi talk thing, but it in no way made me hate yaoi, lmao. This girl has been, and forever will be, a SasuNaru fan. SasuNaru all the way, baby! YEAH!
----------------------------------------------------
Naruto stared out the front glass windows of Wal-Mart, peering into the parking lot from the inside of the store. Sasuke had gotten a call from the office he ran—not that Naruto had known that until the phone call, but then he realized all that money had to be coming from somewhere. He'd found out Sasuke occasionally went downtown to his father's old company to set things in order. He had no desire to be a businessman but since this was his father's life, Sasuke had somewhat taken it over like he'd been meant to. He just never went in to work, and had hired someone else to be him, so to speak. He only ever got called when there were problems nobody could fix but him.
And so, instead of being picked up by Sasuke or something, Naruto was stuck walking to his car. Sure, he wasn't alone, but once he was in his car, he would be. That, and the fact that almost everyone else had already left. Temari and Kankurou had finished around eight, while Naruto had remained until close, which was ten-thirty.
"Nothing to worry about." Naruto whispered. "Everything will be fine." He nodded to himself. His feet still didn't move. "Aw, c'mon, now! Tsunade didn't raise no wussy!" He looked down and glared at his feet. "Come on, this is ridiculous. Move!"
"Talking to yourself, there, Uzumaki?" Naruto jerked around, his eyes wide with fear.
"H-hey." he muttered, looking away. He didn't know what it was about the other man, but something about him just really made him uncomfortable. Uncomfortable, and a little scared.
"Where's your boyfriend?" he teased. Naruto shifted uneasily.
"He had to go take care of something."
"Aw, so you're all alone?" the man sneered. Naruto winced.
"I have to go." The blond headed for the door. "I'll see you later, Kisame."
"Bye, blondie." Kisame Hoshigaki smirked at Naruto as the blond hurried away from him.
"Nothing's wrong. Nothing's wrong. You're okay. You're okay. Nothing's wrong." Naruto whispered to himself as he hurried towards the back of the parking lot, where his car was located. He walked past Pat's car and sighed, relieved, because he remembered having parked right beside it. As he went to enter his car, he froze. His car was gone.
"No." he whispered. "You're shitting me. This is not happening." He looked about himself worriedly, trying not to panic.
Okay, Sasuke wouldn't have done this, because I'm dating him now, so he has no reason to. The others wouldn't have done this, because they know the situation. Naruto began slowly walking backwards, scanning the area as sweat trickled down the side of his face. Considering, he only had one option left. He had to make it back inside Wal-Mart before anything happened.
He froze as he heard a car pulling up behind him and slowly turned around, terrified. His fear was justified as his eyes fell on a sleek black Jaguar, his stalker sitting behind the wheel with the window rolled down. Naruto's knees began to shake.
"Hi. I noticed your car was missing. Need a ride?" He smirked at Naruto, and the blond couldn't help but notice how similar that smirk was to Sasuke's.
"I know who you are." Naruto whispered, taking a step back.
"Do you, now?" Itachi opened his car door, his hands in the pockets of his long black coat. He pulled them back out, a lighter in one hand, and a pack of cigarettes in the other.
"You're Itachi Uchiha." Naruto's voice shook as he continued backing away, the other man advancing as he lit a cigarette. He inhaled deeply.
"Oh, good." He paused briefly to exhale. "Now we can be on a first-name basis. Itachi and Naruto."
"You're The Fan." Naruto accused.
"I sure am."
"Why are you trying to kill Sasuke?" the blond practically hollered, fear gripping his chest as he realized he was soon going to back into the chain-link fence that separated the parking lot from the construction site next door.
"Why not?" Itachi shrugged.
"He's your brother!"
"And my parents were my parents, I don't understand your argument." Itachi's eyes narrowed. He then held the cigarette pack out towards Naruto. "Want one?"
"No."
"Why not?" Itachi smirked. "They don't bite. Not like me."
Now, being a twenty-five year old man, Naruto prided himself in not being scared of very many things. Itachi was not one of them. The man terrified him, and the fact that he'd hit the chain link fence behind him and Itachi was still headed right for him—Naruto didn't know what to do.
Realistically, the firefighter was probably stronger than the man in front of him, but he didn't want to chance it. Itachi could have something hidden up his sleeve, and the blond wasn't too keen on dying, thankyouverymuch.
"What do you want from me?" Naruto whispered, inching along the fence slightly so that Itachi had to change direction.
"I think you know what I want." Naruto blinked, and suddenly, Itachi was right in front of him. His heart stopped beating. The other man was inches away from him, his hands on either side of the blond's head, his fingers clutching at the fence behind him. Naruto stared at him, terrified, unsure of what to do. If he screamed, Itachi could just kiss him to stop him. If he fought back, the other man might have a weapon.
"Please, just leave me alone." Naruto whispered, his heart pounding against his ribcage so hard he was sure his bones would break.
"I can't do that." Itachi leaned closer, his body pressed up against Naruto's. The blond whimpered, closing his eyes and willing it all away. He felt warm breath on the side of his neck, soon followed by lips. He whimpered again.
What do I do?.! What do I do?.! No, no, no, no, no. Naruto began to hyperventilate as one of Itachi's hands left the fence to run through his blond hair, the other moving down his side to the bottom of his shirt, across his stomach, and then down again. No, no, no... Naruto's mind repeated the word over and over again as Itachi's hand found itself somewhere Naruto didn't want it.
"You're not hard." Itachi accused, narrowing his eyes. "We'll have to change that." He began rubbing his hand against Naruto's crotch, and the blond felt tears forming in his eyes.
"Please." he whispered.
"Please what?" Itachi smirked, leaning against the blond more and rubbing harder.
"Please, stop!" He began to push Itachi away, finally able to regain use of his arms as his fear intensified, allowing his blood to unfreeze.
Itachi ignored him, pushing against the blond's hands, still pressed up against him and continuing his ministrations. He began to smirk as Naruto's body betrayed him, feeling the blond's length hardening as he rubbed it.
"Please, just leave me alone!" Naruto hollered, struggling to push Itachi off. He cried out as Itachi's grip in his hair tightened, wrenching his head back as the man leaned forward so his mouth was against Naruto's ear.
"You're going to shut up, and like it. Just like you're meant to. Just like I want you to."
"No, no, no." Naruto began to whimper aloud as tears fell from the corner of his eyes. Itachi had moved his hand, and he was now undoing the blond's pants so he could reach into his boxers.
Then, the blond's eyes snapped open as a sound hit his ears. It was the most beautiful sound in the world. It was the sound of a motorcycle. More specifically, a Ducati. Even more specifically, Sasuke's Ducati. Thank fucking God! Naruto thought, panicked.
"Sasuke!" he hollered, Itachi's lips falling onto his own a second later to muffle his scream.
Naruto pressed his lips together tightly, ensuring he didn't allow Itachi's demanding tongue access. The older man's hand found its way into Naruto's boxers and he squeezed, hard. Naruto let out a cry, causing his mouth to open and allowing Itachi to thrust his tongue inside. The elder Uchiha moaned as tears fell down Naruto's face.
"Hey!" Itachi pulled away from Naruto, the blond thanking every higher being he'd ever heard of. "Itachi!"
The elder Uchiha turned, seeing his enraged brother standing beside his car, the younger man's motorcycle parked right beside it, his helmet clenched in his hand.
"Get away from him, you bastard!"
Sasuke let out a cry of anger as he lunged at Itachi, wielding his helmet as if to slam it down on the elder man's head. Itachi pivoted out of the way, grabbing Sasuke's hand and bending his wrist backwards until he heard a 'pop.'
The younger Uchiha screamed, dropping his helmet as Itachi kicked him in the stomach. The raven flew backwards, slamming painfully into his brother's car.
"Stop it!" Naruto went to attack Itachi when Kisame suddenly appeared, grabbing the blond and putting his arm around his neck, holding him painfully in place.
"Let the brothers reunite." Kisame smirked.
Naruto struggled, watching wide-eyed as Itachi walked towards his younger brother.
Sasuke coughed, pain shooting up his spine. His vision swam as he struggled to regain control of himself and numb the pain slightly.
Suddenly, a hand wrapped around his throat and he gasped as he was wrenched to his feet, Itachi slamming him back against the car, choking him.
"Hello, little brother. Still too weak to protect those important to you?" Sasuke's eyes flickered to Naruto before he looked back at his brother, finding it harder and harder to breathe.
"Leave him alone!" Naruto hollered, struggling against Kisame. The other man was much larger than him, and much stronger. Naruto could do nothing more than jerk his arm from side to side.
Itachi smirked at his brother, looking back at Naruto. "Fiery, huh? How is he in bed?"
Sasuke struggled, tugging at the hand around his neck with a growl. Itachi squeezed harder, his eyes narrowing and his face returning to its usual emotionless mask.
Naruto growled, kicking one leg backwards and nailing Kisame in the crotch. The other man howled with pain as he let him go, falling to his knees, clutching his groin. Naruto bolted towards Itachi and Sasuke, intent on tackling the elder Uchiha to the ground. Itachi noticed the action out of the corner of his eye and shifted when Naruto came closer. The blond ran right by him and Itachi grabbed the back of his shirt with his free hand before slamming him sideways into his car.
Naruto's head went through the passenger side window before he slumped forward, unconscious, blood trailing down the side of his head.
"Na..." Sasuke chocked out, trying to get free from his brother without being able to use his left hand.
Itachi's head snapped up as he heard yelling, and saw security guards running towards him, some with their guns drawn.
"Tch." Itachi threw his brother to the side, grabbing the back of Naruto's shirt and pulling his upper body out of his car. He only had two seats, and he actually debated leaving Kisame behind in favour of taking Naruto, but he'd have other chances with the blond.
He dropped Naruto right beside Sasuke before calling to Kisame. The other man groaned as he hurried as fast as he could towards the elder Uchiha's car, knowing he'd have no problem driving off without him.
Once the two of them were inside, Itachi screeched out of the parking lot as the security guards came within firing distance. A few shot at the car, but it was going too fast for them to be able to actually hit either passenger.
"Naruto." Sasuke coughed as he crawled towards the blond, cradling his left hand to his chest.
The blond didn't move, his head turned to one side and blood oozing out of a cut on his forehead. Red was staining the brilliant blond hair, and pieces of glass were still embedded in the tanned skin.
"Call an ambulance!" Sasuke heard someone yell before the person bent down beside him. "Naruto? Can you hear me?"
Sasuke turned to see who it was, not recognizing the man beside him. He was a little on the chubby side, but Sasuke could tell he was incredibly muscled. He'd been the first person to arrive, after all, so he had to have been pretty fit, despite his appearance.
"What happened?"
"Who are you?" Sasuke retorted, narrowing his eyes defensively.
"Hn, you must be his new boyfriend, Uchiha." the man grumbled as he checked Naruto over without touching him. "The name's Chouji. Chouji Akimichi. I've been working with Naruto for two years."
"Is he going to be okay?" Sasuke asked, looking back down at Naruto.
"I don't know." Chouji shot a look at Sasuke's wrist, which was slowly starting to swell and turn purple. "I don't know."
----------------------------------------------------
Kakashi groaned as he slammed his car door, rubbing the back of his head as he made his way towards the firehouse. He'd missed it, this was true, but he also enjoyed having all that time off. Mind you, it would've been better if I'd been allowed to have Iruka stay with me, the Captain grinned. Oh, the things he could've done with his cute little Arson Investigator.
That, and the first thing he got after leaving the hospital was a night shift. It was like the Gods were against him, or something. He'd gone from being able to sleep as much as he liked—to having to wake up every two seconds for a stupid fire. Kakashi was not looking forward to tonight.
He opened the door to the station, and almost wished he hadn't. Genma had glomped him the second he walked through the door, sending him crashing backwards. He fell on his back and let out a small cry as Genma landed on top of him.
"Oh, look, Raidou! It actually was Kakashi, this time!"
"Well done, Genma." Raidou sighed as he grabbed the back of the firefighter's shirt and pulled him off their Captain. "Welcome back, Kakashi."
"Starting to wish I hadn't come back." the grey-haired firefighter muttered as he got back to his feet. "And another thing." He spun around and punched Raidou clear across the face, sending the man toppling backwards.
"Raidou!" Genma turned to Kakashi angrily. "I'll kill you if you impair him from being able to give me head!"
"That's for telling Gai where I was." Kakashi pointed one accusing finger at Raidou. "I thought we were friends!"
"We are friends." Raidou insisted as he rubbed his jaw. "But sometimes, you just have to make sacrifices. It was us, or you, and we chose us."
"Excuse me." They all turned to Kotetsu, who was standing in the kitchen with a cup of coffee and one hand in the air. "There was no vote, Raidou decided by himself."
"Fine." Raidou sighed. "It was you, or us, and I chose us. Better?" he asked Kotetsu.
"Much. We feel your pain, Kakashi." the firefighter reassured him as he walked towards the table to sit down.
"You weren't the one being harassed day in, day out by a psycho." Kakashi grumbled as he made his way towards his office.
"Yeah, but we were stuck with him." Izumo motioned Genma.
"Hey!" Genma exclaimed, insulted.
Just then, the Rig Bay door opened and Naruto and Sasuke walked in, Naruto yelling at Sasuke to stop touching his ass, and that him having a sprained wrist was no excuse.
"Fuck me sideways!" Kiba exclaimed as he saw them.
"Offer?" Genma appeared beside him like rapid fire. Kiba punched him in the face before standing from the couch and walking towards the two men.
"What happened to you?" he asked as he looked at Naruto's scratched up face.
"We just... we had a rough night." Naruto cleared his throat uncomfortably. "But hey, Kakashi! You're back!"
Kakashi had one hand raised, his index finger pointing at Naruto, and then Sasuke, and then back to Naruto. "Are—are you guys dating, now?"
"Yeah! I told you that Sasuke was out to get me, but did any of you believe me? No!" Naruto rolled his eyes as he fell down into the closest chair.
"I did." Kotetsu offered with a smirk. "I just didn't care."
"Bastard!" Naruto hissed, before laughing good naturedly.
Kakashi smiled as he watched the interactions around him. Nothing apart from the two dating seemed to have changed, and watching everyone act like normal was making him glad that he was finally back. It was then that he noticed a lone firefighter in the corner, muttering something under his breath while shooting angry glances at Genma. Kakashi frowned as he headed towards him.
"Hi, you must be the temp." Kakashi said, holding his hand out. "I'm Captain Kakashi Hatake."
"Tenzou Yamato." the firefighter grumbled, shaking Kakashi's hand. "I've been ordered to stay here for another few days, until I'm certain you're all right to work."
Kakashi laughed as he noticed at the disgruntled look on Yamato's face. "I take it you don't like Genma very much."
"If he tries to rape me one more time, I'm shooting him." Yamato growled. Kakashi laughed.
"Please do. You'll be doing all of us a favour."
"I heard that!" Genma hollered across the room.
----------------------------------------------------
Sasuke stared up at the boring ceiling of Station Seven's bunk room, listening to all the other firefighters around him sleep. He heard the occasional groan and pant from Genma's part of the room, and could only imagine what the pervert was dreaming about.
Naruto would occasionally whimper, causing Sasuke to reach over and run his hand through the blond's hair until he quietened down. He always wondered what it was Naruto dreamed about. They'd talked about it briefly a while back when they'd first started going out, but they hadn't really gone into detail.
Also, Naruto only ever seemed to have them when he was sleeping alone in a bed. Whenever he and Sasuke slept together, the blond would curl up into Sasuke and sleep soundlessly all night. But when he was alone in a bed, he would whimper, shake, sweat, and sometimes, he would even cry. Sasuke hated seeing him like that.
The raven sighed as he counted the cracks in the ceiling, barely able to see them in the darkness. There was a light on outside which shone through the window, allowing Sasuke to just barely be able to see.
He thought about how slow the night had been so far, wondering if it could possibly just stay that way so that once he was asleep, he would remain asleep. The chances were small, so he didn't hold his breath.
As he stared at the ceiling, he began to feel a little light-headed, and wondered why he could see some kind of fog. He glanced out the window, noticing there was no fog outside, only in the room. I wonder why that is. Sasuke's eyes began to drift shut slowly, his brain still trying to process why there was fog inside the bunk room.
Then, Sasuke rolled himself off the bed, the pain forcing his eyes to snap open as he suddenly realized what was going on.
"Shit!" Sasuke rushed across the room and fumbled to grab the handle on the wall. He pulled it down, and immediately, a loud, shrill alarm rang throughout the firehouse.
"Wake up!" Sasuke ran to Naruto's bed and slapped him, the blond jerking up, his eyes opening. They were glazed over, as if it was taking all he had to stay awake. "Kakashi! Genma! Wake up!" Sasuke was running to each bed, shaking the firefighters while he, himself, struggled not to lose consciousness. Shit, we're all gonna die if we stay here, Sasuke realized. I need to get them out!
The raven ran out of the bunk room, one hand over his mouth as the smoke became thicker in the main room. He could only guess the fire was somewhere in the Rig Bay. Itachi—for who else could it be?—had obviously wanted them to die of asphyxiation. A fire would've woken them all up, but smoke inhalation was much more subtle.
Sasuke ran to the Rig Bay door and carefully touched the handle to test for heat. He felt none, suggesting the fire was elsewhere, so he hastily threw open the door and ran in, grabbing a few Scott packs and masks. Kiba, Naruto, Genma, he said in his head. They're the three that'll probably be the most reliable right now, based on lung capacity.
He ran back inside and to the bunk room, a Scott pack and mask already on himself. He ran to Naruto's side, the blond still slightly dazed, and threw the mask and Scott pack at him.
"Put this on, now!" he ordered, his voice muffled due to his lack of radio.
Naruto began to put it on slowly as Sasuke pulled one on an unconscious Kiba, shaking him until he woke up once the mask was on. He did the same with Genma as Naruto started to regain his focus and pull Kakashi out of the room.
As soon as the other two were coherent, they also began getting people out of the room as Sasuke tried to locate the source of the smoke. He couldn't seem to find the fire anywhere, at first, until he heard crackling above him. He looked up, and his eyes narrowed. Bastard! He started a fire in the vents! Sasuke growled before turning and running back to the bunk room to help the other three.
By the time they'd all exited the building, and the four conscious firefighters were forcing the others to wake up, Engine Eight appeared around the corner, screeching down the road towards Station Seven.
"Are you all right?" the Captain demanded as he jumped out of the rig. "Is everyone okay?"
"I hope so." Sasuke said as he pulled off his mask. "The fire's in the vent. There's a lot of smoke in there, so be careful."
"All right, let's move it, men!" The Captain ran towards the Station with his firefighters as Sasuke looked around.
The Uchiha's eyes caught on a figure standing on the roof of a building across the street. Sasuke growled, because he knew the only person that could be was Itachi. He probably hadn't expected anyone to still be awake, and Sasuke thanked whatever higher being existed that his elder brother had never thought to pay any attention to him. After all, if he had, he would've known Sasuke was an insomniac, and therefore, would've still been awake.
If you're starting a war, I'm going to win, Sasuke thought angrily as he narrowed his eyes. He didn't bother alerting anyone about the fact that Itachi was across the street. By the time they got there, his brother would be gone.
----------------------------------------------------
A/N: True story… You know you're sick minded when you read 'exotic' and think "Holy shit! Why is the word 'erotic' on the back of a milk carton?.!" Yes… this happened to me today. I almost choked on said milk until it clicked in my brain that it had said exotic, and I was a dirty, dirty pervert. Kind of like Genma. Lol.
Also... I caved. :sweatdrop: My muse bribed me, as she so often does, with a pic of SasuNaru if I wrote her some KakaIru smut... So I did... and now, her and my other friends want me to write lemons for all my fics... so I will... because they keep bribing me with pictures! Dammit! If I could draw, being bribed by pictures wouldn't work! Anyway, the first one I'm working on is Roommates, so I'm going over it again, and I'm going to add lemons. I won't post them on here, cause it's not allowed, so anyone interested in reading my shitty lemons, I made a yahoo group, for which the link is in my profile. You can join if you just send me a message from the main page of my group. :smiles: It's not mandatory or anything, it's just optional. For now, there's only the KakaIru smut (my first attempt ever at a lemon) and the first few chapters of Roommates re-worked.
Yeah... I'm done now.
