[[Kakashi's POV]]

I came to find Naruto and Sasuke after Sakura and I had caught our Pigs, finding the pair was no trouble as they were yelling at each other. I decided to wait it out seeing as they were arguing getting in between that would be more hassle than It was worth.

Naruto and Sasuke were interrupted by one of the stray pigs and they began to chase after it. I walked a little closer after I heard a yell and watched as the two boys fell into a mud bank after colliding mid-pounce, it was like watching a comedy act with these two. The pig trotted off happily as if it knew what it accomplished.

Watching them lay in the mud I thought they may have been injured, but Naruto whipped up and rolled over on top is Sasuke. Suddenly I felt like I shouldn't be watching these events unfold and thanked my foresight for sending Sakura to help clean up at the farm. Before I made the decision to turn and leave I witnessed the answer to my previous question, in that Naruto's problem was definitely Sasuke; I also found out that my problem was a lack of boundaries. This is not what I meant when I said I needed a hobby. Thankful to the mask hiding my flushed expression I walked back.

[[Sasuke's POV]]

The afternoon passed by in awkward silence. Alone in the room I was contemplating what was going on inside of myself. Just looking at Naruto made my chest swell with anger, I wanted to lash out and beat him until he was senseless; then behind that there was an aching at the thought of Naruto's face looking down on me from that moment in the forest. I kicked his pillow across the room, more than anything I felt weak and I hated it. How could that idiot even get the upper hand on me like that?

Unwillingly I remembered how I looked over his tan face, his blue eyes looking at me in a way I hadn't seen before. The memory seemingly took on a life of it's own, Naruto's originally serious expression changed into mischievousness. He leaned forward his warm breath raising the hairs on my neck. He kissed along my neck and traced along my collar bone with his tongue.

I hit my own head to stop my train of thought,

"This bastard, making me think what he wants."

"Who's a bastard?" The voice came from behind me, Naruto had walked into the room while I was cursing him out.

"Who do you think idiot."

"Why don't you talk a little nicer to me? You always have this dumbass attitude" He sat down on his futon casually as if he wasn't fazed by the tension between us. Seeing him being so nonchalant while I was swirling in a vortex of anger and shame made me even more unstable.

"Who wants to be nice to you? I won't. Keep. Dreaming."

"I know you're lying, so I'll wait. I'm good at waiting for people to like me." What a cocky bastard, he knew how to provoke my ego.

"Wait until you die for all I care." He shrugged off my retort and began to undress, I turned my head but from the corner of my eye I examined his physique properly for the first time. Broad shoulders and muscle definition that you don't expect to be underneath that ridiculous jumpsuit. The Fox's seal rippled over his hardened stomach. He was about to remove his pants and I tried to look away but I couldn't.

"Do you mind?"

"What?" I snapped at him

"Stop looking at me."

"Who's looking at you? I'm trying to find my pyjamas."

"Ah fuck, what am I even doing?" I cursed myself. Naruto smiled slyly and continued to change the rest of his clothes. I turned and began to change after a fake attempt to rummage through my things. I felt two cold hands smoothly move from my side around to my abdomen.

"Do you need a hand?" Naruto teased. I elbowed him in the chest.

"Do you enjoy fucking around? He didn't answer me so I squeezed his neck tightly, my anger was taking control. "Do you even understand what you're doing? We're men. Both men. Yet, you god damn jerk, you keep making things difficult. Just like usual. Don't push me Naruto, or I won't be able to back off." Even thought I had a death grip on his neck he still reached out both his hands and through shallow breaths pulled my shirt up over my head and paused waiting for me to remove my hand. I threw his head back and he coughed from the sudden release of pressure. Rubbing the red mark i'd left on his skin he looked at me and struggled to get his words out.

"Have you ever known me to give up on something, idiot."

We stood facing each other, the tension in the air building a wall between us that could topple at any moment. Naruto reached out his hand to touch my abdomen, the closer his fingers got to my skin I could feel the heat radiating from them. Time had slowed as the distance grew smaller. Before our skin connected the door of our shared room swung open. Naruto's hand jerked away and disappointment consumed my expression.

I turned around to see who had annoyingly smashed their way into the room. A wide eyed Sakura stood shocked, mouth gaping. Her eyes pierced through me and I became painfully aware that I was half undressed.

"What do you want?"

"Uh, the um... Dinner." She mumbled, clasping her blushing cheeks. How ridiculous, she's like a child.

"Fine, Get out we're still getting dressed." She looked down at the floor smiling to herself. Once the door closed I heard loud squeals as she ran back down the hallway.

"How annoying" I muttered. Naruto changed and left quickly leaving me to brood by myself. Why was I even annoyed? What did I want to happen? My mood turned sour and the prospect of eating with the rest of the fools outside made me feel worse.
