When Lightning Strikes

Authors' Note: Thanks for the reviews. We hope you enjoy this chapter.

Chapter 4

Shikamaru watches the newest member of their team behind thick, protective glass. He could see Sasuke's every movement through the glass and on camera if he wanted to freeze or enlarge things. At the moment, his attention was split between reading the recruit's written results and watching him showcase his abilities. Both of which are impressive.

He glances at Shisui, after doing a few final tallies. The test was rather thorough as it tested one's general intelligence, magical knowledge, and even their temperament. Temperament tests were done by posing multiple scenarios at the latest recruit until they could discern a general pattern in how they coped with field situations. "He scores as a genius. I can't dispute that. His magical knowledge is impressive for someone who isn't formally trained. He's better than the average recruit, but it's still not enough to send him on any sort of solo mission." That much was clear. It'd been awhile since Shikamaru had encountered such promising results. "He's a hotheaded strategist. We won't have to worry about him freezing up in dangerous situations. It's making sure he doesn't jump into one that will be troublesome. He's a battering ram and used to working alone. He'll need to adapt to being part of a unit."

Shisui couldn't disagree with the assessment. There was a reason that he kept Shikamaru on his team and made sure to…dissuade any other unit leaders against trying to recruit his best strategist out from under his nose. "He'll be staying with me, so I'll be training him personally. He might not have had formal training before, but I know the way his mind works. Set a challenge in front of an Uchiha and tie it to their pride and they'll work at it until they succeed or find a better way to do it." He smiles wryly at the blunt and honest assessment. "I would know, after all."

"You Uchihas are a different breed. I'm sure he'll catch up in terms of practical knowledge soon." Shikamaru's eyes turn towards Sasuke who was now aiming a small fireball if one could call it that at their magic detectors. It was only about the size of a pinky finger. "I told him to create the smallest actual flame he could. He'll be making his largest afterward. This is to test his magical control."

"Good. And thank you for taking over his testing while I was busy." Work never seemed to end for Shisui, and thanks to his little vacation to recruit his cousin, he'd had a small mountain of it to take care of the minute he stepped back into the office. Shisui's gaze narrows slightly at the tiny flame. It was a cute, flickering orange. Not very bit, not very hot, like the flame of a candle flickering back and forth. "I'll have to work with him to see if he can produce hotter flames that size. It could help him with infiltration, if he needs to access something in a locked room."

"It'd definitely be useful for infiltration. Now, let's see if he can dispel it and try for something larger. Some missions require finesse and others need brute force to get the job done." Shikamaru nods at Shisui. It didn't escape his notice how fondly the other magic user was looking at his cousin. What a drag. It was going to get annoying if Shisui slacked on his paperwork in favor of 'training' his cousin. He shakes his head at the thought, turning the microphone on. "That's enough. Get rid of your flame with magic if you can and if you can't, just smother it. I want see what your fire magic can do at maximum power. This glass is specially designed so you don't have to worry about our safety or tripping the fire alarm. We've turned it off for this exercise."

Sasuke nods hearing the voice. A quick wave of his hand banishes the small flame. What was less easy to control was his racing thoughts. Did he want to downplay his abilities or show his hand? He was in Shisui's unit. So, he should be safe.

Sighing and deciding Itachi would kill him later, he decides to go all out. After all, the government already knew he put out massive wildfires. A burst of flame surrounds his body and spans out filling the room like an inferno. Red, orange, blue, violet, white, and even tiny black flames raged around him. None of them burning him.

"He's got a lot of firepower." Shikamaru snorts at his own joke. "His flames are impossibly hot at full power. Weak when he wants small ones." Shikamaru watches the magic dial that measured such things. "He seems immune to them and can put them out in an instant. Magic control is a bit above average, but where he excels is raw power. What do you think so far?"

"I think that his raw talent gives us a lot to work with. But being so specialized in pyrokinesis might make it difficult for him to grasps the other skills I plan to teach him." It really would be a shame if Shisui failed to teach Sasuke because he was just too talented in one particular form of magic. But he had faith in his little cousin. Their family produced geniuses regularly, and he was sure that Sasuke would prove himself to be a genius in all capacities.

He takes control of the speakers himself with a smile on his lips. "Well done Sasuke, you can put the fire out now. Then we'll start venting oxygen into the room." After all, in a confined space, there was only so much oxygen. If Sasuke wasn't careful, burning himself would be the least of his worries because burning through his oxygen supply could kill much faster than flames.

"We'll see. Even if fire is all he can do, it's a useful skill and he owned a dojo. So, we know he's a capable fighter." Shikamaru folds his hands, running dozens of scenarios through his mind. "His intelligence, physical capabilities, and fire magic is more than enough to justify his placement in our division. I hope he'll prove able to learn other kinds of magic, of course. But if he doesn't...he'll manage. As I said, Uchiha are a rare breed."

Shikamaru seemed like a friendly enough lazy genius, but it was a relief to hear Shisui's voice. Sasuke smiles and puts out his fire. "Oxygen is good. So, are we done with testing?"

Shisui chuckles. As if he would be nearly that merciful. "Almost, Sasuke, there's just one more testing section you need to pass." He laces his fingers together and cracks his knuckles. "You've got brains in your head and magic in your blood, but now we need to see how you handle yourself in a fight. First, we're going to fight hand to hand, then I'm going to teach you how to shoot a gun."

"I don't mind fighting. Who am I going up against?" Sasuke shrugs. He wouldn't scare that easily. "As for shooting, you pull the trigger and aim." He'd never fired one...unless you counted water guns and paintball guns. Still, he should have seen that coming. He was going to be a cop.

Oh…his cousin had no idea what he was in for. Shisui smirks and leans in close to the microphone. "Sasuke…you'll be fighting me."

"Come on, Shisui. I don't want to have to kick your ass. You're family." Sasuke groans, shaking his head. Knowing his cousin though, Shisui was going to be stubborn. "Never mind. I should have seen this coming since you're the head of the division. I'll try to make your beating quick, though."

Shisui laughs at his little cousin's courage and audacity. "I look forward to it, Sasuke. Get your training clothes and meet me down the hall, fourth door on the right, in the room marked Training Room 3."

"I'll be there." Sasuke slips off and changes into his training clothes, which he'd left in a small storage room off the main office. He stretches his arms above his head and bends over slowly, deliberately. His blood pumps faster in anticipation of the fight as he finishes stretching and turns back out of the storage room and down the right side of the hall.

He was used to fighting people at his dojo and it always ended in his favor. He didn't expect this would be different, but with a body like that...Shisui might give him a challenge. When it came to magic, his cousin had the edge, but in a ring...that was familiar territory.

Shisui looks up when he hears footsteps outside of the training room. His lips curve into a sly smirk as his little cousin turns the corner. "So, you decided to join me, Sasuke?"

He pulls on a pair of dark, fingerless gloves to match the skintight, sleeveless shirt he wore that left bare a number of tattoos swirling over his shoulders and across his back underneath the dark fabric. Shisui was dressed to impress, yes, but also to intimidate. He had no fear of injury and wasn't afraid to show that. In the field, the tactic worked to deter possible opponents. It gave an air of barely restrained power, of danger. Only the foolish took Shisui on in physical combat.

"Nice tattoos." Sasuke raises an eyebrow, hoping Shisui wasn't doing that mind thing. For some reason the fingerless gloves and fuck it the whole outfit was really doing it for him. "So what are the rules?"

"No permanent injuries and don't aim to kill." Shisui didn't believe in making the rules overly complicated. Complex rules just left loopholes to be exploited. "Fight the best way that you know how and show me what you're made of." He turns to face Sasuke with a smirk plastered on his face. "And thank you. I've collected a few tattoos over the years doing this job. I like to think they make me more attractive."

"Let me guess, your code name is Peacock." Sasuke rolls his eyes, trying not to focus on how ridiculously attractive that smirk looked on Shisui. He'd wipe it off his cousin's face soon enough anyway. "Deal. Just let me know when you had enough."

Sasuke comes flying at Shisui with his fists raised. His outfit was designed to intimidate and he probably expected Sasuke would try to be sneaky due to the experience gap. The direct approach would work best in a mix of styles. Shisui was probably proficient in martial arts, but if he could make his combinations creative enough...he might throw him off.

"Good form." Shisui slides smoothly back, twisting his body as he catches Sasuke by the wrist and flips his little cousin clean over his shoulder and hard onto the ground in less than two seconds.

"You're fast." Sasuke grunts as he lands on the ground. He gets back up almost as suddenly as he landed. He'd have to take that into account. Use Shisui's speed against him.

Sasuke makes rushes forward again, this time aiming a kick at Shisui's side only to pull it back at the last second knowing. Shisui would dodge again. Sasuke was sure of it when he starts to, he brings his other leg and fist to slam it into Shisui's shoulder.

Shisui sidesteps the blows as if he were as nothing more than a ghost. They sail past his shoulder and he catches Sasuke's leg, yanking it as he pulls his cousin towards him and hit him squarely with a punch to the diaphragm. "Don't make your moves so obvious, Sasuke. You can't use my speed as a weakness if I know what you're going to do next."

Sasuke coughs up some blood, shaking himself until he recovers from the hit. "Are you using some kind of magic to be faster?" He'd never seen speed like this before. Not that it mattered. A frontal attack and a side feint hadn't worked. He jumps a few feet in the air, delivering a series of punches and kicks in a rabid succession. "I call this Lion's Barrage!"

"Maybe." Shisui blocks the first four punches and all of the kicks, but catches the last punch and pushes Sasuke back before delivering three lightning fast jabs to Sasuke's abdomen that could make even the strongest man go numb.

"C-Cheater. You didn't say we could use magic." Sasuke hisses as Shisui's fists become far too acquainted with his abdomen for his liking. He lands on the floor, trying to get up but he felt numb.

"I'm not cheating. I said no permanent damage and no kill shots." Shisui holds up a hand and tiny sparks of lightning crackle around his fingers. "But I'll admit that I've been fighting dirty. You have excellent form, speed, and technique. It's all perfect for entering a martial arts tournament." Shisui's gaze hardens slightly as he taps two fingers against his head. "But in the real world, when we deal with criminals, we have to use our brains and whatever dirty tricks we can think of, even if that means reading your mind and numbing your muscles with lightning. Proper technique won't earn you respect among the people we deal with. Putting your opponent on the ground and not holding back does."

"It might not technically be cheating, but it's close enough." Sasuke glowers, but eyes the lightning with wonder. "You can use lightning too? Is there anything you CAN'T do?" He sighs, trying to move once more. It didn't work any better than the first time. "How long until I can move normally again?"

"Just a few minutes, I didn't hit you with very much." Shisui reaches out his hand and pulls Sasuke carefully to his feet. "And there's plenty that I can't do. I've just been working very hard over the last twenty-five years to hone every talent I have. In the last ten of those, my talents have multiplied. And I can teach you some of them if you're willing to learn."

Sasuke takes the hand offered to him and stands. It was awkward considering he couldn't feel part of his body, but he manages. "I was always told not to use my magic." That it was safer that way. Itachi had a fit every single time Sasuke showcased his abilities. "My brother gets away with it because his powers aren't offensive. Maybe if I had started as early as you had...I'd be able to do more." Sasuke didn't even known if he could do anything beyond fire and lightning. They had come as naturally as breathing. "I've never tried, but as you said we need every trick available to us. So, I'm willing to try. I can't promise my magic is as adaptable as yours because...I honestly don't know if it is or not."

"It might not be as adaptable as mine yet, but all we have to do is build on your strengths and teach you a few basic tricks, and then you'll see your talents blossom from there." Shisui turns Sasuke's hand over and lets the sparks envelop his fingers again. "Here, take this and see how long you can hold my lightning for." Shisui deposits a small sphere of crackling green lightning in Sasuke's palm and slowly starts to back away, ready just in case Sasuke's legs prove too weak to support him.

"I guess we'll see." He watches as sparks form in Shisui's hand only for them to form into a green sphere of lightning. "Why is your lightning green, but sure?" Sasuke holds the lightning, examining it curiously. It was...sparkier than his, but the lightning actually felt good. Really good. "Are you doing that...magic frisking thing again?"

Shisui snorts softly and shoots Sasuke a smirk. "No, but if that's what you want, I can certainly oblige." He raises his hand and snaps his fingers to increase the voltage of the lightning and spread it right through Sasuke's body.

"Shisui!" Sasuke gasps, not expecting the sudden 'attack.' It wasn't like before. This time it wasn't concentrated and intended to get him off fast...this was more like a possessive, rough magical caress. It was lighting a fire in his blood that definitely shouldn't be ignited while at 'work.' "F-Fuck. That's not fair and you know it!"

"Of course it's not fair, Sasuke." Shisui smirks wickedly as he increases the voltage a little more and has the green lightning sink into Sasuke's skin. "I don't have to play by the conventional rules anymore, so you shouldn't expect me to. I will use dirty, under-handed tricks to win and get what I want."

"Damn peacocking showoff." He squirms, thankfully the numbness had finally worn off. Not that it did much good when he was getting seduced by green lightning.

He could feel the lightnin stroking his magic and was dimly aware of a faint humming sound. His blue lightning radiated from his skin on a low voltage. Before he could really analyze what he was doing, he covers Shisui's mouth with his. "You already won anyway."

Shisui's eyes widen at the sudden, unexpected kiss. The his whole body shivers and he wraps his arms around Sasuke and deepens the kiss. He could feel the heat of passion pouring off of Sasuke within the lightning. It was enthralling…intoxicating. "Sasuke…"

Sasuke allows Shisui to deepen the kiss, wrapping his arms around the other man's neck. Small blue sparks could be seen bouncing off his skin, but it didn't seem to hurt Shisui. If anything..it appeared to be the opposite. "I'd say you're immune to my lightning, but I think you're just as turned on as I am."

Warning Lemon

"You think?" Shisui lowers his hands to Sasuke's hips and pulls them firmly against his own and against his hard and very interested cock. "First lesson…be careful how you use that lightning of yours. Otherwise you're liable to be known as a cocktease, Sasuke."

"Yeah. I think so." Sasuke feels his breath hitch at the undeniable evidence of Shisui's arousal. "And I'm not the cocktease. You sparked me first." He feels his cheeks burn slightly. Sasuke hadn't really made it a secret how Shisui's lightning impacted him. This was totally Shisui's fault. Mostly. Sasuke had kissed him first, but Shisui started it.

"You challenged me." Shisui seizes Sasuke's chin and looks down at his little cousin with glowing red eyes. "And I'm more than willing to take up a challenge."

"Glad to hear it because it's going to be quite the challenge with that tent in your pants." Great. He'd just pulled the tiger by the tail again. It was like he couldn't help himself or something. His self-control around Shisui was somewhere pitifully close to zero.

Shisui's eyes flash dangerously and he reaches a hand down to cup Sasuke's own not so little problem. He rubs and squeezes it very firmly. "And you think you don't have a problem of your own?"

"The two aren't mutually exclusive." Sasuke tries his best to bite back a moan.

As much as Shisui wanted to fuck Sasuke into the training room floor, neither of them had come prepared for that. He squeezes Sasuke one more time and presses a searing kiss to those firm pink lips. "Hold on tight, Sasuke." He wraps his arm around Sasuke's back and pulls Sasuke to his chest as light flashes around them.

He smiles, reveling in the kiss. Sasuke almost didn't notice when the light surrounded him, but it was hard to miss the change in environment. "You teleported us?" Had he really been that distracted? How the hell had Shisui been able to concentrate enough to send them back home? That was at least a couple miles!

"Yes, I don't stock the office for this." Shisui pushes Sasuke backwards onto the soft, silvery gray covers of his bed and presses a biting kiss to Sasuke's pale, vulnerable neck.

Soft sighs of pleasure escape his lips as he tilts his head to the side. Sasuke's neck had always been one of his most sensitive spots. It was why he favored high collars. Shisui must have known that instinctively or was just a damn good guesser. "I would hope not. Otherwise you'd be setting a very poor example for your subordinates if you're too busy fucking to do your paperwork."

Shisui hums softly against Sasuke's throat. "Would you rather I be doing my paperwork instead of doing you?" He bites down on Sasuke's hidden collarbone and reaches down to flick open Sasuke's zipper and reach into his pants.

Sasuke moans. The feeling of Shisui's teeth against his skin sending a wave of white hot desire through his veins. They only burned hotter when Shisui reached for his arousal. "No, I wouldn't rather you be doing paperwork." His voice was little more than a growl and his vision tinted red.

"Good." Shisui grasps Sasuke's pants and boxers. In a flash of light, they vanish, only to thump softly into the laundry basket in the corner of the room. And though he was sorely tempted to put this brat on his knees and fuck him into next year, Shisui refrains. In an instant, Sasuke's shirt joins his pants. "Now tell me…" Shisui's tongue flicks across Sasuke's skin as he presses teasing lovebites down Sasuke's chest. "What you want me…" He flicks his tongue insistently over a tightened nipple. "To do to you."

"You're going to have to teach me how to do that trick." He feels himself grown from the exquisite feeling of Shisui's tongue on his skin. His words conjuring a thousand elicit images in Sasuke's mind as his touch stroked the fires of want even higher. "The whole vanishing clothes thing, that could definitely come in handy." Fuck that felt good. For a few blissful seconds, Sasuke revels in the sensual tease before shoving Shisui over and lightly pinning him to the bed. All the while raining soft kisses and playful bites along his ear, jawline, and neck.

"Just teleportation." Shisui's shirt vanishing, leaving his pale, tattooed skin bare for Sasuke's enjoyment. Black and red ink curl in spikes over his shoulders and halfway across his pectorals. Up his sides flare matching blooms of fire that disappear into the unknown canvas of his back. "Figured it out after teleporting out of my clothes a few times."

"Good to know." Sasuke's fingers trail over the intricate ink patterns with a quiet reverence. "I've never thought about tattoos much, but they look good on you." Then again, Sasuke doubted there was much that didn't. He smiles at the thought, leaving a trail of hot kisses along that ridiculously toned stomach. His hand drifting southward until it encompasses his prize. He glides his hand along Shisui's arousal at a slow, teasing pace.

Shisui's eyes flare a brilliant scarlet as his gaze turns on Sasuke. "I knew you were a wicked little cocktease." But it wouldn't matter. Sasuke would be getting extremely familiar with Shisui's cock once he had this brat on his back. "You're begging to be put on your knees."

Sasuke smirks, pulling Shisui into a heated kiss and using his teeth to tug on Shisui's lower lip as he breaks it. "You're half right. I'd call that foreplay, but you can call it being a cocktease if you like." He brushes their erections together in a slow tease. "As for putting me on my knees…you wish." It was pulling the tiger's tail again, but fuck it. You only lived once.

Shisui's loosened pants disappear in an instant as he hooks his leg around Sasuke's and forces the brat onto his stomach. "Sometimes wishes come true." He reaches around to seize Sasuke's throbbing erection and raises his other hand as a bottle appears in a small flash of light. His cock presses to Sasuke's backside in a promise of what was to come. "You know, I was going to try to be gentle." He pulls a hard, firm stroke along Sasuke's cock. "I really was, you rotten brat."

He groans, almost squirming. Sasuke was already rock hard. The demanding touch only serving to send his senses into overdrive even more. "You seem pretty worked up over a rotten brat. You know if that's what you're into I can fuck you like an animal."

"Keep mouthing off and you're due for another one." A loud smack rings through the air as Shisui pulls Sasuke up onto his knees and leaves a stinging slap against Sasuke's ass. Then he reaches for the bottle and spreads a warm, slippery lubricant over his fingers.

Sasuke bites back a sound that knew would be far too close to a yip for his liking. "Better make it good or you don't get to top again." He glances over his shoulder watching Shisui with ruby red eyes.

Shisui snorts, but his gaze softens slightly as he slowly inserts a single finger. "I wouldn't give you any less than my best." He slides it inside and presses down on Sasuke's inner walls.

Sasuke squirms, no longer looking over his shoulder. He didn't know how to describe feeling of Shisui touching him in that way. It wasn't painful. The closest word he could come up with was foreign. Still, he rocks back against Shisui trying to will his body to relax. It was only to be expected. He hadn't done it this way before. "Good. Hopefully your dick will be as good as your magic at getting me off."

"Who says that I won't be using both?" Shisui presses a kiss to the back of Sasuke's neck. He takes the chance to delve a little deeper with a second finger, this time driving lightning through his fingers and deep into Sasuke's flesh to touch all of his pleasure nerves.

The kiss was a nice distraction. Sasuke sighs in contentment until he finds himself moaning. The lightning was somehow everywhere. "Y-You are such a cheater!" He groans, lost in a sea of sensations.

Shisui moves his fingers, pumping them in and out in an effort to loosen Sasuke's muscles and open the tight passage for him. "No, I fight dirty, but you love it." Then he adds a third finger when Sasuke's muscles loosen up just enough. "So do you like my fingers, Sasuke? Do you like how they can press all of your best buttons?"

Sasuke's breath comes in soft pants. A light sheen of sweat appearing along his body as his senses are engulfed by the feeling of Shisui's touch and magic seducing him. That alluring voice surrounding him. He was still a smug bastard, though. "Maybe a little, but you haven't pushed all my buttons. You're still just being a cocktease."

With a soft chuckle, Shisui finishes stretching Sasuke and slowly removes his fingers. He presses a kiss to the base of Sasuke's spine, slowly working his way back up. "Maybe, but I always deliver on my promises, Sasuke." With every inching kiss, his hips draw closer to Sasuke's. Shisui stops his kisses at the base of Sasuke's neck as he winds his clean hand into Sasuke's hair to hold him down. The tip of his cock just presses to Sasuke's entrance, but goes no further. Slowly, he releases tiny pulses of lightning through Sasuke's body.

Quiet sighs of contentment escape Sasuke's lips. He'd never been kissed along his spine before, but it was an act of pure soothing sensuality for reasons he couldn't entirely comprehend. "You'd better. You'd be a lousy c-captain if you didn't keep your word." The word captain was drown out by a short gasps pleasure. Who knew lightning could be so sexy?

Shisui smirks against Sasuke's neck, then presses a hand to Sasuke's hips and drags his lover back as he presses slowly inside Sasuke's tight, almost unbearably hot body. It was clear to feel that Sasuke embodied his fire magic inside and out. Every word that fell from his lips was just as fiery as the power that burned inside of him.

Sasuke squirms underneath him. Shisui's cock was a lot bigger than his fingers. He'd never experienced this before. The feeling of having someone inside him. Of literally being joined together and especially not someone as...big as Shisui. So, he arches back against his lover encouragingly. "Move damn it."

"Soon." Shisui's grip tightens in Sasuke's hair as his fingers curl into a fist. The pressure around his cock was intense, even he needed a moment to ground himself. He kisses Sasuke's neck and bites down into the soft flesh and hard muscle without so much as breaking the skin. Then, his hips thrust forward and he buries himself deep inside of his new lover. He thrusts again, then again, setting a slow but bruising pace in time with small pulses of lightning that flare through Sasuke's nervous system.

He moans at the kiss as Shisui bites down. The feeling of Shisui's lips and teeth against his neck was pure ecstasy. Sasuke tries his best to match Shisui's pace. His magic flaring to life in a desire to meet his lover's. Tiny flames ignite upon his skin...fearing he might burn Shisui, the fire quickly shimmers into blue lightning. "Fuck! S-Shisui!"

Shisui thrusts harder as his power reaches for Sasuke's and mixes with it, pulling it all into a dangerously erotic dance. His own nerves flash with sparks of pleasure and his body shudders as each tiny bolt of Sasuke's lightning arcs through him. His chest presses to Sasuke's back, where sweat-slicked skin rubs and slides together. He releases Sasuke's neck for just a moment. "Cum for me, Sasuke." He reaches and closes his hand firmly around Sasuke's cock as his voice rumbles with the power racing deep inside him. "Now."

Sasuke could feel their magic touching just as their bodies were. No, they weren't just touching...they were intertwining. It was an adrenaline rush that leaves him gasping for breath as Shisui takes him into his hand. His body acts on instinct and he coats Shisui's hand with the evidence of their intimate encounter.

With a groan, Shisui bites down again and gives a few more pounding, pulsing thrusts before spending himself. He closes his eyes and smiles, slowly rolling them over to spoon Sasuke. "You're a marvel, Sasuke. A bratty marvel, but a marvel nonetheless." Never before had he been able to bond his magic so completely with a lover. The connection alone had been…orgasmic.

He pants trying to catch his breath. It was a intoxicating feeling to have someone else's magic still racing along with his own internally. Even more so when he was still in the throes of his own afterglow. "So are you. A cheating marvel, but a marvel nonetheless."

So his little lover was going to be cheeky, huh? Shisui brings a hand down to smack Sasuke's well-fucked ass. "I do not cheat, I just fight dirty. We set no rules, and so there were none to break."

"Owe!" Sasuke glowers at Shisui for the smack. "That's such a technicality and you know it."

Shisui chuckles. "Oh I know. But I'm still right." He kisses the back of Sasuke's neck and nuzzles contentedly into the soft raven hair. "Now quiet down, I'm a cuddlebug."

He was about to tell Shisui exactly where he could shove his 'quieting down' advice when the sneaky bastard kisses his neck. Damn it. That was so cheating. Shisui knew that was his spot. Still, Sasuke manages to snort. "Cuddlebug? Hn, I guess I know what your stance on pet names is." Sasuke rolls his eyes playfully, but settles into the bed.

Soft laughter rumbles quietly in Shisui's chest as he pulls Sasuke close and finally slips out, unjoining them from one another. "You'll get used to it, Sasuke. Just wait and see…"
