Sasuke woke up early in Itachi's room. He was excited to go into town and buy things. He hopped out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. He stripped himself from his clothes and went into the stall, turning on the water. He hummed to himself while he washed his body.

When he was done, he dried himself and put clothes on. He went back to the bed.

"Aniki..!" Sasuke grinned and shook his brother.

"What is it Sasuke.." Itachi mumbled as he slowly woke up.

He turned and looked at the clock.

"Sasuke, it's six in the morning. Go back to bed." Itachi mumbled as he pulled the covers over his head.

Sasuke pouted and left Itachi's room. He ran to Naruto's room and flung the door open. He jumped onto the lump on the bed.

Naruto got a scare and woke up only to find Sasuke on top of him. He gave a sigh and closed his eyes.

"What time is it Sasuke." He mumbled as he wrapped his arms around Sasuke.

"Dunno!" Sasuke lied. He wanted Naruto to get up.

"I can just tell from the lack of sunlight through the windows that it is way too early to be waking up on a weekend."

Sasuke pouted on Naruto's chest. Naruto brought Sasuke closer and sniffed the damp hair.

"Mm..did you shower? You smell good."

"When are we going to leave?" Sasuke asked.

"Not anytime soon." Naruto sighed. "Maybe after we eat breakfast or lunch.."

"Let's go now!" Sasuke sat up on Naruto, making the arms that were wrapped around him fall to the side.

"The only person who's awake at this time is you Sasuke. No one opens this early, but I'm glad you're eager.." Naruto brought Sasuke back down on his chest and once again wrapped his arms around him.

"But you're awake.." Sasuke quietly said.

"I didn't really mean it like that." Naruto squeezed his innocent lover. "Just sleep for a little longer.."

Naruto let go of Sasuke.

"Come under the blanket, I wanna hug you.." Naruto tiredly said.

Sasuke did as he was told and slipped under the blanket laying next to Naruto. He faced Naruto and their eyes met.

Naruto smiled and kissed Sasuke's forehead. He brought Sasuke close to his body and hugged him tightly. He really loved having Sasuke's warm body against his own. He smiled and took a whiff of Sasuke's hair. He instinctively rubbed Sasuke's ear and stroked his hair.

Sasuke buried his face in Naruto's chest. He started to purr softly when he felt Naruto stroke his hair. He curled against Naruto and found himself slowly falling back asleep. Maybe he wasn't really ready to go out yet. He felt Naruto almost bury his face in Sasuke's hair.

"You even changed into your yukata.." Naruto mumbled. "It's going to get wrinkled if you sleep in it..why don't you change back to your sweater."

Sasuke sulked as he didn't want to mess up his clothes, but he didn't want to get up either. He rolled out of the bed, landing on his feet. He quickly went to the closet, pulling out any sweater that was in his reach. Sasuke stripped himself of the yukata and carefully hung it on the hanger. He messily put the sweater back on as he walked back to the bed and slipped back next to Naruto who was waiting for him.

"So refreshing to be able to touch your skin.." Naruto sighed in content as he wrapped his legs around Sasuke's and let his hand going under the sweater to roam on Sasuke's back.

Sasuke gripped Naruto's shirt on the chest feeling a bit close to arousal, but he didn't want to be.

"S..stop it.." Sasuke muttered into Naruto's chest as he clenched his hands tighter onto Naruto's shirt.

"Ow ow oww.." Naruto took his hands out and pried Sasuke's away from him.

"When was the last time you cut your nails..?" Naruto examined Sasuke's long and sharp nails. "Now that I think about it, I don't think we ever cut them."

"I don't want to..!" Sasuke buried himself under the blanket.

"Man." Naruto yawned as he sat up. "I'm awake now, so let's just cut them before we forget.

"No..!" Sasuke got dragged to the bathroom by Naruto's strong grip.

"It'll be quick Sasuke." Naruto continued to hold Sasuke's hand while he rummaged through the drawers to find his nail clipper.

Sasuke fought hard against Naruto. He hated getting his nails cut. He never used to mind it until an accident came up in the past, almost taking his whole nail off.

"Sasuke!" Naruto wrapped his arm around Sasuke, holding him down. "Just calm down. I won't hurt you."

"N..no..!" Sasuke whole body started to shake and was still resisting.

"Okay okay." Naruto put the nail clipper aside and held both of Sasuke's hands. "Tell me why you don't want to get it cut."

Naruto sat down with Sasuke in his lap, waiting for a response.

"I..it's scary.." Sasuke whispered.

"What's so scary about getting your nails cut?" Naruto asked.

"C..cause..one time..master..he..he cut my nails..a..and i..it almost c..came off. I..it hurt a lot.." Sasuke wiped the tears that were leaking from his eyes.

"Sasuke, look at me." Naruto turned Sasuke around.

Sasuke looked up at Naruto who wiped his tears.

"I know you are scared, but you need to trust me. I will not hurt you." Naruto squeezed Sasuke's hands. "I know I was cruel in the beginning, but we talked about this before. I do not want to hurt you Sasuke. I have no reason to hurt the one I love. Have you ever thought of hurting me ever since you loved me?"

Sasuke quickly shook his head.

"And why is that?"

"C..cause I love you.." Sasuke whispered.

"And I love you." Naruto smiled. "I promise I won't hurt you. It's as simple as that."

Sasuke ears fell, but he understood. He nodded and looked down.

"And Sasuke."

Sasuke looked up.

"No one is your master anymore."

Sasuke fidgeted and played with his sleeve.

"B..but 't you..still my..m..m..master..?" Sasuke stuttered. It was something that always plagued the back of his mind.

"I was, but now I'm your lover."

"But..b..but..y..you're still..my..m..master to..e..everyone..else.." Sasuke tried holding back his tears.

"Sasuke.." Naruto started but was interrupted by Sasuke.

"Y..you e..even have papers..s..saying..t..that..I'm your...s..s..slave.." Sasuke's mouth started to tremble.

"Stop it." Where did Sasuke even hear that from? He's never read his own papers.

"I..I'm..just...a u..useless..hybrid.." Sasuke started to cry. He didn't know why he was putting himself down so much.

"Sasuke!" Naruto raised his voice, startling Sasuke. "Now listen to me carefully okay."

Sasuke wiped his nonstopping tears and did his best to nod.

"You are my lover. You are my boyfriend. You are wonderful. You are beautiful. You are you." Naruto lightly touched the side of Sasuke's cheek. "You are a hybrid because you were born as one. You were slave because you were born into it. You can't change that, but you are with me now. I was your master, but I am not anymore. You love me and I love you, and that makes us lovers. It doesn't matter what other people think. What the papers say doesn't matter. Your papers only explains who you are and all the information they could provide on it. Don't put yourself in such a low position when you're not anymore. You are my equal Sasuke."

Sasuke felt his heart well up from the emotions he was feeling. He saw Naruto open his arms for him, so he took the invite. He tightly wrapped his arms around Naruto and cried into his shoulder. He felt Naruto rub his back and he slowly calmed down.

Naruto pulled Sasuke away gently so he could wipe the remaining tears from him. He then gently kissed Sasuke on the lips.

"I love you." Naruto smiled softly.

"I..I love you too.." Sasuke whispered.

"Will you let me cut your nails for you?"

Sasuke nodded and presented his hands for Naruto. He saw him grab the nail clipper again and bring it close to his nails.

"It will be quick and it won't hurt okay?" Naruto reassured.

Unlike his own nails, Sasuke's nail grew out to be much sharper, but other than that, their nails were the same.

Naruto worked quickly into cutting Sasuke's nails. He could see Sasuke flinch the first couple times he cut one off, but he soon got used to it.

"See, it's not so bad right?" Naruto asked after he finished the last nail.

Sasuke shook his head. He wondered why it was so quick and easy compared to those other times he had to cut his nails.

Naruto convinced Sasuke to let him cut his toenails as well. Sasuke agreed but he was still a little hesitant.

"Have you never cut your own nails before?"

Sasuke shook his head.

"They didn't let me.." Sasuke whispered.

"Damn bastards." Naruto cursed under his breath. Did they want Sasuke to depend on them for everything?

"I'm tired.." Sasuke quietly said and leaned against Naruto when he was finished cleaning up.

"That's cause you woke up so early!" Naruto laughed. "Let's go back to bed for now okay?"

Sasuke nodded and was picked up by Naruto. He was carried to the bed and curled right up to Naruto when he laid down. He had no trouble going back to sleep.

Naruto idly stroked Sasuke's hair as he just thought about him. He couldn't believe Sasuke couldn't do something as simple as cutting his own nails. He then wondered if Itachi had cut his nails. There is a nail clipper in Itachi's bathroom, but Naruto wasn't sure if he used it.

But then how did Sasuke keep it short the whole time? For sure it would've been longer than it was just now if he didn't cut it.

Naruto decided he would just ask when they wake up again. He closed his eyes and waited for sleep to take over.

Naruto was awoken again by Sasuke practically jumping on top of him. He groaned wanting to sleep more, but Sasuke was persistent. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Sasuke grinning with his tail swaying all over the place.

"What's up Sasuke." Naruto yawned.

He was going to touch Sasuke's head, but Sasuke made an excited yelp and ran out the room.

"What the hell?" Naruto mumbled. Why was Sasuke so hyper?

He got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. He could hear Sasuke running around and yelling out to his aniki. He then heard Sasuke trip himself with a loud thud, but apparently he was okay as Naruto could hear his footsteps again.

Naruto yawned again and left his room. He was going to go downstairs to eat breakfast, but Sasuke jumped onto his back almost choking Naruto.

"When are we going to go?" Sasuke asked.

"We'll go after we eat breakfast since you're so excited.." Naruto's voice was strained as he pried Sasuke off of him before he could fall down the stairs.

"Okay..!" Sasuke nearly flew down the stairs.

Naruto saw Itachi dragging his feet out of the room.

"Sasuke woke you up too?" Naruto asked as he started to go downstairs.

"Yeah.." Itachi stifled a yawn.

They both went downstairs and found Sasuke already eating his breakfast Sakura prepared for him. They sat down on each side of Sasuke and ate their breakfast as well.

Sasuke finished his food and ran up the stairs to change while Naruto and Itachi ate. He came back down with his yukata messily put on but a grin on his face.

Itachi got up to fix Sasuke's clothing.

"Otouto, why're you so happy?"

"Cause we're going to buy stuff! Right?" Sasuke beamed at Naruto, almost killing him in the process.

"Yes Sasuke." Naruto resisted the urge to squeeze him. "Don't be so cute in the morning.." Naruto mumbled.

Sasuke continued to grin while he waited for Itachi and Naruto to finish their food. He tried urging them to go faster. He was trailing behind Naruto the whole time until they were finally ready to leave. Sasuke ran outside and into the carriage. He sat next to Itachi while he watched out the small window.

When they reached town, Sasuke was already almost lost in the crowd. It was busy since it was the weekend.

"Sasuke!" Naruto ran after him. "You cannot leave me or Itachi's side."

"Sorry.." Sasuke's ears fell.

"Just make sure to be with us okay?"

Sasuke nodded and held Naruto's hand.

They all went straight to the clothing shops. There was a new shop since the last time they visited, and Sasuke was the first to notice it.

"L..look!" Sasuke pointed to the window. "Th..there's clothes for us..!"

Naruto was actually surprised to see a shop dedicated to hybrids. They decided to inside to check it out.

Sasuke was overly excited seeing clothes that were fitted for them. Even Itachi had to admit that it was surprising.

Naruto greeted the shop owner who was extremely nice and welcomed hybrids. She helped them find clothes suitable for both Sasuke and Itachi.

Itachi got more pants and shirts for himself. It was simple, but he liked it. Naruto had him try it on to make sure it fitted well. Itachi was pleased how comfortable it was. His tail wasn't bothered at all.

Then it was Sasuke's turn to get clothes. Naruto couldn't help but pick out cuter clothes for Sasuke. Since Sasuke liked wearing sweaters, Naruto had Sasuke choose bunch of hoodies that had cat ears on the top of it for his own ears to fit. Naruto had to go to the corner of the store to avoid going crazy over how cute Sasuke was when he had tried it on.

He went back and had Sasuke choose shorts since he didn't like longer pants.

Sasuke and Itachi had a big bag of clothes when they were finished. They thanked the shop owner and left. Both Itachi and Sasuke thanked Naruto for buying them the clothes after they left.

Then it was time to go into the toy shop. Sasuke was so happy to see the shop in front of him. Naruto took Sasuke's bag and let Sasuke explore the shop. The shop owner didn't seem too pleased seeing hybrids in his shop, but a customer meant money.

Sasuke didn't know where to start. He saw all sorts of dolls and stuffed animals in one section, but when he went to the next, he saw a bunch of cars and other gadgets. Sasuke was fascinated looking at the remote controls cars.

"Do you want one?" Naruto asked when he found Sasuke staring at it.

"H..how does it work?" Sasuke asked, looking at Naruto.

"You put batteries in it and you can control the car with the remote."

Sasuke bent down and picked up one of the boxes containing a dark blue car.

"Can I..?" Sasuke looked up at Naruto.

"Of course Sasuke. I brought you here so you can choose what you want."

Sasuke's face was glowing as he hugged the box to his chest. It was something he never experienced before, picking out his own toy.

"Is there anything else that caught your eye?" Naruto asked.

Sasuke's ears perked as he quickly went back to one of the aisle he had visited earlier. Naruto and Itachi followed him and saw him holding a stuffed black cat in his hand.

"Another one?" Naruto asked.

Sasuke's ears fell and he slightly pouted.

Naruto messed Sasuke's hair.

"You can get it if you want it."

Sasuke smiled at Naruto.

"Thank you.." He hugged the box and the cat tightly.

"I know you said you don't have the need to play with anything, but did something interest you?" Naruto asked Itachi.

"No, I am fine. Thank you."

Naruto nodded and they went to the front to pay for Sasuke's things.

When they exited the shop, Sasuke wanted to go home to play with his car.

"You were so excited to come here, and now you want to go home?" Naruto laughed.

Since they got what they came for, they decided to just go back. They had only stayed in town for a couple hours, but if Sasuke and Itachi were content, then it was fine. They ended up walking home since they were done earlier than expected. Naruto's driver wouldn't have to fetch them then.

On their way home, Sasuke dug through his toy bag and got the stuffed cat. He then presented it to Itachi, placing it in his arms.

"For you..!" Sasuke smiled as he made sure Itachi was holding it.

"Oh?" Itachi held the cat and looked at it. He then looked at Naruto wondering if he knew about this.

"Now we all have one!" Sasuke beamed to both Naruto and Sasuke.

Naruto messed Sasuke's hair.

"No wonder why you wanted it." Naruto grinned at how thoughtful it was of Sasuke.

"Thank you otouto." Itachi smiled softly.

"Mhm!" Sasuke was in a good mood and quietly hummed to himself on the walk home.

At home, Sasuke quickly opened his box while Naruto and Itachi put the clothes away. Sasuke made a mess on the floor, but he was able to get the car out with Sakura's help. He quickly picked up his trash and threw it away before he could start playing with his car.

Naruto came down the stairs and helped Sasuke put the batteries in. He turned it on and had Sasuke sit on his lap. He showed him how to control the car with the remote and Sasuke's ears perked when he saw the car move.

Sasuke tried for himself and loved seeing the car speed around the floor and spin out of control when he had hit something. He then got up and started chasing the car he was controlling around the house, getting used to the controls quickly. He almost ran into Itachi who was coming down the stairs.

"Are you having fun Sasuke?"

Sasuke nodded as he ran off again.

"Hey Itachi." Naruto waved his hand, signalling Itachi to sit with him in the kitchen.

"Yes?" Itachi sat down next to Naruto.

"This might seem random, but have you been cutting your nails?"

"Ah, uhm, yeah I have. There was a nail clipper in the bathroom so I just used it.."

"You sound as if you're in trouble, but you're not. I was just making sure you were. Sasuke had a fit today about cutting his nails."

"Oh.." Itachi knew why Sasuke was scared of cutting his nails.

"Have you cut his nails at all?"

"No I haven't."

"Hm..I was just wondering how he was able to keep them short the whole time he was here then."

"Sasuke bites his nails when nobody's looking." Itachi sighed. "I found out about it when he was younger, but he refused to stop. He'd rather bite them off than have our masters cut it. I just..forgot about it until you mentioned it."

They both watched Sasuke playing with the car and it made the both of them smile.

"Well, I don't think he's going to be biting them anymore. Right Sasuke?"

Sasuke stopped in front of them with a questioning look on his face. He had no idea what Naruto was talking about, but the smile on his face made Sasuke beam back.

"Yeah!"
