-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto opened his blue eyes slowly, ignoring the dull throbbing pain in his face. After a few moments of getting used to the darkness, he looked around, shifting to sit up on his arms. His eyes widened when they landed on Sasuke sitting on a chair beside the bed, head in hand, snoring slightly. The raven's face was so relaxed when he slept, so peaceful. The almost permanent frown or smirk on his face was gone, replaced by a soft easy smile that, if you had asked Naruto, would've never been found on the stoic boy's face.
His own lips curling into a kind smile, not without pain from the split lip, Naruto reached out and gently pushed a lock of blue-black hair out of Sasuke's face. Feeling courageous because of the other boy's lack of response, the blonde let his fingertips trail over the fine features of Sasuke's face. They traced over his sharp cheek bones and his hollow cheeks. They gently outlined his soft lips. As Naruto was about to pull his hand away, a hand wrapped tenderly around his wrist, causing him to gasp in alarm. Unfathomable eyes peered into his own blue ones with an emotion that the blonde had never seen in them. This scared him, so he pulled away from Sasuke's hand. The beautiful eyes quickly clouded over with the usual coldness and, barely seen, hurt. Naruto immediately regretted pulling away.
"I see you're awake now." Sasuke said in his usual emotionless voice as he sat up straight. Naruto hung his head, nodding, biting his lip in confusion. Why did he feel so concerned for Sasuke? Why did he feel like taking the dark teen in his arms and making him smile again? An innocent smile like the one that graced his lips before Naruto stupidly made it fade into a cold thin line again.
Feeling like a total ass, Naruto bit his lip harder, a painful punishment, but was stopped by a hand on his chin. Surprised, the blonde looked up and once again met the beautiful black eyes . This time they might not have been as unguarded, but at least they weren't cold anymore.
"Does your eye still hurt?" Sasuke asked, gently pressing his fingertips to the blossoming bruise. Wincing slightly, Naruto nodded, not trusting his voice, which felt like it would crack as soon as he tried to utter a word. Sasuke stood up. "I'll get some more medicine for the bruise and your lip." He departed the room, leaving a whirlwind of confusing emotions to stir up the blonde's heart once again. Naruto did what he usually did when he was confused. He talked to Kyuubi.
"Kyuubi?"
"Yes, kit?"
"Why do I feel this way?"
"Hm? Let's see. The Uchiha brat has thrown his own life away more times than I can count just to save you. He also looks at you when you're looking the other way with a smile on his face. You do the same thing sometimes. Kit, you have also jumped in front of danger for the Uchiha so he could live. You grabbed the blade he was trying to stab himself with and injured yourself. Kit, you have feelings for him that surpass friendship incredibly. Plus, remember that time you all went to the hot springs for the first time in two years and you saw him naked and had to leave the water? I would've never pegged my little kit to be a pervert."
"Kyuubi!" Naruto whined. "I'm not a pervert, I was just surprised."
"Of course you were, kit. Though I did see those images your mind kept conjuring up when you were sleeping."
"Kyuubi!"
Naruto's thoughts were cut off as Sasuke entered the room carrying a washcloth and a little tub of balm. Naruto willed the blush on his cheeks to disappear as quickly as possible as the raven sat on the edge of the bed and gently patted the area around the blonde's eye and lip with the warm, damp washcloth. Then Sasuke opened the tub and dipped his index and middle fingers into it. Tenderly, Sasuke started to massage the medicine into the bruised area.
Ignoring the pain that shot through his face, Naruto watched Sasuke, trying to find the answers to his questions. Sasuke finished and wiped his fingers on the washcloth. This was all done without words. Suddenly in dire need of communication, Naruto grasped the older teen by the arm.
"T-thank you," Naruto stuttered, "I mean, for taking care of me and all…" Embarrassed, the blonde let his hand drop and his eyes fixed on the wooden grains of the floor. For a moment nothing happened, then there was a slight creaking noise as Sasuke settled on the bed next to Naruto. Looking over, the blue eyed boy saw a small smile curling Sasuke's lips. Surprised, Naruto smiled back hesitantly.
"No thanks needed." Sasuke replied. "But you didn't need to jump into the…disagreement." The raven reprimanded, his lips forming a frown of disapproval. Naruto pouted. "But if I didn't, you would have gotten hit."
Sasuke smirked self-assuredly. "Like I would let that happen."
Naruto stuck his tongue out and crossed his arms, looking away. 'Damn conceited bastard. He always thinks he's better than everyone else. I mean, sure, he beat me, once…or twice…Ugh! I'll get stronger than him, dattebayo! I'll kick his ass in front of everyone and show the village that I'm stronger than their precious Uchiha!"
Sasuke watched the blonde make faces to himself and couldn't repress a chuckle. Naruto turned back to him, a scowl on his face.
"What are you laughing at, teme?"
Sasuke smirked and stood up, walking over to the door. "Nothing, usuratonkachi. Are you hungry?"
"No, I'm definitely not hungry!" Naruto's stomach let out a loud grumble and he flushed. Crossing his arms and sticking his nose in the air, the blonde huffed and stared out of the window. "Like I said, I'm not hungry!"
Sasuke stared at Naruto for a moment before shrugging and turning to walk away. "Okay then, but don't come begging me for food later."
Naruto sat there for a few minutes, ignoring his protesting tummy when the most delicious scent wafted in through the door. Sniffing the air, the blonde closed his eyes and sighed. 'Mmm, food of the Gods. Ramen, oh sweet ramen…'
Following the irresistible smell of noodles in mouthwatering broth, Naruto crept down the stairs, wincing when they let out small creaks. Peeking around a door, Naruto saw Sasuke standing at a stove, a wooden spoon in his hands stirring the pot that held the cuisine that tantalized Naruto's nose.
The blonde, in an attempt to sneak into the room, slipped into the doorway and, clinging to the wall, tiptoed halfway towards the stove. Suddenly his foot hit a table leg and he let out a yelp as he landed on the hard wood floor. "Itai…"
"What were you doing, usuratonkachi?" Sasuke asked, still stirring the pot, one eyebrow raised at Naruto's clumsiness.
"Ano…I was testing you!" Naruto grinned, showing his small, but sharp canine teeth, his fox-whisker scars stretching across his face. "I was seeing if you could sense me, but I was so busy concentrating that I didn't see the table until it was too late!"
Sasuke smirked. "You mean, you were trying to sneak in here and tripped on the table leg." Naruto gaped, his big blue eyes wide.
"How did you know that?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes and reached up into a cabinet, taking out two bowls. "I could sense your chakra the whole time, dobe. And it's not so hard to figure out what you're doing when I've known you for almost ten years." After filling the bowls with ramen, the raven placed them on the table and gestured at Naruto to join him.
Naruto uttered the polite "Itadakimasu" and slurped some noodles into his mouth with the chopsticks that Sasuke had handed him. His eyes widened and he stared at the Uchiha. "Whoa, Sasuke, you make good ramen! I didn't know you knew how to make it!"
Sasuke chuckled and ate some of his own noodles before turning to the blonde with a smirk on his lips. "Well, it's not hard to make. I guess I'm just a better cook than you."
Naruto scowled and quickly ate the rest of his ramen before standing up and putting the bowl in the sink. "Sasuke-teme! I'll teach you! I'll be here in the morning to make you eat your words!" Then the blonde stomped out of the Uchiha mansion and ran all the way home, swearing to make Sasuke pay for his conceitedness.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning Sasuke woke to the sound of loud and impatient knocking at his front door. Annoyed, the Uchiha walked downstairs and opened the door, the bright sunlight making his eyes narrow. "What?"
"No need to be so impolite, teme. Especially since I came to make your breakfast." Naruto grinned, a basket in his hand, the headband normally tied around his head now around his neck. Which for some reason Sasuke thought was adorable.
"Dobe…" Sasuke sighed and stepped aside, gesturing lazily with his hand, allowing the blonde to pass by him and into the dark mansion. Naruto whistled as he walked into the kitchen and put the basket down on the cabinet. Turning around, he saw Sasuke still standing there and frowned.
"You can't stay and watch!" He walked forward and started pushing the glaring brunette out of the room. "Go take a shower or something." He smiled. "I'll show you what a good cook I am, bastard." The kitchen door closed in Sasuke's face and he blinked. 'Well…that was fast.' Suddenly he grinned, his black eyes narrowing, certain images of a certain blonde in a certain maid outfit made certain parts of him certainly happy. 'Oh, this is good.' Whistling the same tune the blonde was whistling, Sasuke turned and made his way up the stairs.
After 15 minutes, Sasuke was walking down the stairs, a towel around his waist. The brunette was drying his hair with a smaller towel. Smelling something delicious, he turned and strode over to the kitchen door. Opening it, he saw Naruto in an apron at the stove, stirring something with a wooden spoon and sprinkling some seasonings or something in it. Sasuke grinned at the sight. 'He looks…adorable.'
Suddenly, the blonde turned around to see a nearly naked Sasuke standing in the door way with a creepy grin on his face. Blue eyes wide, Naruto froze, his gaze locked on the towel around the Uchiha's waist.
"Like what you see?" The blonde boy jumped, his face instantly red. Sasuke was just standing there, smirking, his black eyes shining in mirth and something else that scared Naruto big time.
"W-what?!?" Naruto spun around, locking his gaze on the pot before him, his face tomato red along with the tips of his ears. "G-go get dressed, you bastard!"
Sasuke laughed and walked out of the kitchen. A few minutes later he came back wearing worn jeans and a button up white shirt. Very casual.
There was a tantalizing scent coming from the kitchen and Sasuke raised an eyebrow when he walked into the kitchen, the table set for two with a bowl of fruit in the middle. Naruto turned from the stove and smiled at him.
"Go ahead, sit down." Sasuke did so and watched as Naruto took out two bowls from a cabinet and using a ladle to pour some of the intoxicating concoction into them. Carefully walking over to the table, the blonde placed a bowl in front of Sasuke and the other in front of himself. Then he stood back and grinned. "Taste it."
Sasuke picked up a spoon and dipped it into the soup-like substance. Bringing it up, he looked at the thick orange liquid before looking up at Naruto. Said blonde had a hopeful look on his face, like he really wanted to impress the Uchiha. Shrugging slightly, Sasuke turned back to the spoon and slipped it into his mouth. His eyebrow cocked in surprise and he looked up at Naruto after swallowing.
"That was delicious." He said simply, his voice his normal stoic one but the look on his face was not normal. He was smiling. Granted, it was a small one, but it was a smile nevertheless. Naruto beamed and flopped down onto the chair opposite of Sasuke's, digging into his own bowl. Sasuke stared at him then started eating.
"What is this anyway?" Naruto looked up at the question, a small speck of orange on the corner of his mouth. After swallowing, he grinned and took a sip of his apple juice. "It's pumpkin soup." Sasuke looked at him, an eyebrow raised.
"Pumpkin soup?"
The blonde nodded. "Yea. I came up with the recipe myself." He said proudly, grinning at the Uchiha. Sasuke raised an eyebrow, impressed. 'Who knew the dobe could actually cook something besides ramen? I thought it was his life source or something…Actually, I think he's really said that once.' Sasuke smirked at Naruto as the oblivious blonde continued destroying his soup. 'Well, now it's time for me to have fun.'
"Dobe, since when could you cook anything besides ramen? I wouldn't have known you could actually do something competently." At this the blonde teen scowled at the Uchiha, his eyes narrowed.
"Bastard! You never think I can do anything without messing it up, huh?" He stood up abruptly, upsetting the table and nearly upending his bowl. "Well, you're just a…a…selfish, conceited bastard who thinks he can get whatever he wants!" By now, Naruto's face was pink in his frustration and it only grew pinker as he realized Sasuke was still smirking.
"Yes," Sasuke started, his lips pulled back into a scary, mischievous, and dangerous smirk, standing up slowly "I am selfish and conceited, and I definitely think I can get whatever I want." He slowly made his way over to the now scared Naruto, his eyes narrowed like a predator going after his prey, causing the fox boy to back away, his back hitting the wall after a moment. "You want to know why I think that, Na-ru-to?" The raven drew out Naruto's name, placing his hands on either side of the poor, confused blonde, effectively trapping him against the wall.
"S-Sasuke? What are you doing?" Naruto stuttered, his big blue eyes wide, darting around at the arms trapping him, then back at Sasuke's face, the expression on said Uchiha's face causing him to shrink back.
"Ask me why." Sasuke commanded, leaning in close to Naruto's face, his nose only millimeters away from the blonde's, his warm breath brushing across those tempting lips. Naruto gulped and tried, unsuccessfully to back away further since his back was pressed against the wall as deeply as he could manage.
"U-um…W-why?" His voice broke and ended in a squeak, causing the blonde to flush in embarrassment.
Sasuke's smirk deepened, now just looking WAY too evil for Naruto to feel safe at all anymore. "Because," The raven began, his voice deepening into a husky, seductive tone, "I am absolutely certain that I," He leaned in closer, his lips now brushing across Naruto's, "Will make you mine."
Naruto had no time to reply to that statement before Sasuke pressed his lips against his own. His eyes widened in shock and he froze. Sasuke frowned slightly before smiling against the blonde's lips. He could get him to react. Reaching down with one hand, he slowly reached for the edge of Naruto's shirt, slipping his hand inside to press against his tight tummy. Naruto, feeling the unexpected warmth on one of his intimate places, gasped, giving the Uchiha the perfect entrance into his mouth, which he took. Eagerly.
Naruto tried not to mew in pleasure as Sasuke slowly wrapped his tongue around Naruto's own, entwining it in a dance of exotic and sensual bliss. Reaching up, he placed his hands on Sasuke's chest, planning on pushing him away, but instantly grew weak as Sasuke slid his hand further up his torso, his deft fingers brushing a nipple, making it harden at the touch. Moaning uncontrollably, Naruto weakly pawed at Sasuke's arms, trying to get the Uchiha to let him go.
Sasuke paid no attention to the blonde's feeble attempts to push him off, instead wrapping his other arm around Naruto's waist and pulling him into his body, his other hand still firmly pressed against the smaller teen's chest, rhythmically rubbing his thumb against Naruto's hard nipple, successfully wrenching weak mews and moans from the squirming blonde.
Pulling back a bit, Sasuke watched as a line of saliva connecting their tongues stretched between them before snapping, leaving lines of spit to slowly dribble down the both of their chins. Strangely turned on by that, Sasuke leaned forward once again to leave nibbling kisses on Naruto's jaw, slowly trailing down to his neck. Hearing gasps above him, Sasuke smirked against the blonde's skin, finally reaching the perfect patch of skin, the junction between the shoulder and the neck. Opening his mouth, Sasuke bit onto the sensitive flesh, making Naruto cry out and push against his chest. After sucking on the abused skin for a moment, Sasuke licked the hurt, as if in apology.
Naruto heard a rushing in his ears and his head was tilted to the side, the bite mark on his neck still hurting. 'Damn…bastard…What the hell…? What is he…doing? Hah. Uhn…Why..am I letting…him do this…? Fight…you weak bastard…Fight!'
Naruto finally got his wits together and pushed against Sasuke's chest again, this time hard. Sasuke, surprised at Naruto's resistance and a little annoyed, stumbled back. The blonde was breathing heavily and his blue eyes were wide, surprise, shock, embarrassment, and something else flashing through the azure orbs. His blonde hair was ruffled, his cheeks pink, and his lips swollen from all of the kissing he had been through. Sasuke thought it was the sexiest thing he had ever seen and tried to trap the blonde once again against the wall, but failed when Naruto ducked under his arms and ran out of the kitchen and out of the Uchiha mansion.
Sasuke watched him go, a smirk on his lips, though there was a bit of annoyance in his coal black eyes. 'Run away, Naruto. I'll make you learn soon.' The Uchiha stood up and walked back over to the table. Sitting down, he picked up Naruto's spoon and slowly slipped it into his mouth. 'I'll make you learn that you are mine.'
