Milady, No! Milord
Chapter two – Sandy Britches
A month later.
A caravan crossed the desert at a slow pace, the sun high in the sky. A scarred cheeked, Naruto sat beside Sasuke in a man drawn carriage not looking quite happy. "Why does Sunagakure have to be all the way out here… not to mention another thing… Why can't Temari marry Shikamaru in his own country…" Naruto whined, but continued to do so as the carriage stopped and in climbed Iruka who had been riding in Sasuke and Kakashi's carriage up till now.
"He never stops..." Sasuke muttered crossing his arms.
The carriages began moving once again, Naruto had finally stopped complaining falling asleep due to Iruka's urging. A large white palace and a village soon came into view the sun had begun to set into a beautiful sunset that complemented the white and gold upon the palace that was surrounded by large walls, its village surrounded by poorly crafted walls. As they walked through the village, peasants and villagers crowded on the sides of the streets to see the royals pass through, hoping to grab up what money they could. Large red doors slowly opened as they neared the palace walls, once opened Naruto saw a clear view of a boy no older than him dressed in silk black pants, a brown sash around his waist, and a white vest claimed his shoulders, he stood by a boy dressed in all black attire same to his. Both had make up on their faces, the red headed boy had black eyeliner while the other had a variation of purple designs on his face.
Naruto jumped from the carriage he wore simple breathing shorts and a dress shirt running up and hugging the red head who tensed in his arms. "Gaara, it's so good to see you!!" Naruto exclaimed releasing the said Gaara. "Hello Naruko, so nice to see the prince again." Kankuro said letting out a laugh before being hit by the blond. "So who's all attending Temari's wedding?" Naruto said as a blond dressed in purple pants, strapless top, and four pony tails glomped the unsuspecting man who went face forward into the sand. "Hi Naruto I'm so glad your going to be my brides' maid." Temari stated as Naruto shot up from the sand. "I'm what?! No… Oh no. Who said I'm your brides' maid?" The scarred cheeked blond said as he spit the sand from his mouth, the two brother's began whistling turning their backs. "TRAITORS!" Naruto exclaimed as Sasuke walked up holding his shoulder.
"Naruto, behave and do this as a favor to your cousin." Sasuke said exchanging glares with an approaching long dark haired, white eyed male.
Want to know a secret?
Not that you probably haven't already figured out… Gaara is my cousin… and can bare children as well… He was betrothed to Sasuke's cousin Neji Hyuuga of Amegakure… Temari who is marrying Shikamaru Nara cousin of Ino Yamanaka… is crowned-prince of Kusagakure his best friend being Chouji Akimichi. Now Kankuro… he's a big jerk!! Always calling me Naruko… ugh! Well I'm glad he's married Ten Ten she puts him in his place… She's Sasuke's cousin too.
That's not really a big secret though…
A pale girl, with fair skin stood under an umbrella away from the group, her eyes were lavender and pupil less though you could barely see them since her bangs covered most of her face. A boy the same age as Sasuke stood next to her holding the umbrella smiling, his features similar to that of the Uchiha's but his hair was shorter. Sasuke approached the two his face red from the sun that had crept through the curtains of his carriage. "Mika you must be suffering out in this kind of weather." Sasuke stated as the dark haired girl nodded. "Tonbogakure and Sunagakure are defiantly in different weather climates… but I was visiting Sai in Hoshigakure when he had received the invitation so I joined him." Mika said fanning herself. Sasuke sent the smirking raven a glare.
"My dear cousin… Sai… have I ever told you how stupid I think you are." Sasuke said a cold tone in his voice.
Sai just waved a hand at him smiling at Mika who looked up at him, "Silly Sasuke she wanted to come! I had insisted upon her returning home and you know the climate in Hoshigakure is the same as Tonbogakure only slightly warmer… I've already burnt." He stated pointing to his arms and face.
(A/n: I think I need to insert a note here… Sasuke is related to the Hyuga through marriage as is Sai. Mika is related to Shino … Naruto is related to Sakura, Ino therefore related to Shikamaru and the Suna siblings. Rock Lee, Chouji, and Kiba are not related. I will put where everyone is located at the end of this chapter.)
Sasuke just rolled his eyes leaving the two behind approaching Naruto and the Hyuga, "Neji." "Sasuke." the two only exchanged those few words passing glances. "Lets get you two to your room!" Temari said dragging both Sasuke and Naruto up the stairs into the palace, Naruto who was shocked stopped. "Wa-wait wait! our room! our room! As in Sasuke and I's room!" Naruto said nervously as they were dragged through the winding halls. "We don't have enough rooms for everyone to have a room so you and Sasuke are sharing, and those who are getting married are sharing a room." Temari pushed open two large golden trimmed doors entering a bedroom draped in white silk, and sheer curtains dressed an open balcony doors. Gold, Red and White pillows dressed a corner of the room, a large bed in gold and red sheets laid gently on the bed under large white pillows.
"Wow that's pretty... Temari..." Naruto said in amazement.
Sasuke sat down on the bed laying back unbuttoning his shirt looking to Temari. "Hm? Yes Sasuke-kun?" Temari said looking to the collapsed, sun-abused raven. "Please... Please tell me that your wedding is inside... or I'm going to kill your fiance." Sasuke stated in a deathly tone, sending the signature Uchiha Glare with said signature. Laughing Temari nodded, "Oh yes Sasuke, SASORI!" Temari screetched as she turned to see her cousin currently molesting the prince of Iwagakure, who was enjoying it. Sasori looked around the blond to the source of complaints. "Hm? Yes Temari, what do you want." Sasori said in an annoyed tone.
"You know what... never mind continue doing things to the guy I don't care, I'm not the one who's going to nag your ear off. Grandmother Chiyo will." Temari said to go off in search of her husband-to-be.
Naruto casually toured the room entering the large bathroom, its floors white tile, which was surprisingly cold under his bare feet. Walking over to the large tub a small idea planted itself into the back of his mind. Turning he exited the bathroom to see Sasuke asleep on his stomach a brand on the back of his neck. Naruto frowned as he walked over to the bed, remembering how the sun-abused boy got the mark.
Flashback
Naruto fell back first, his eyes closed tightly his hands gripping his shoulders. Tears ran down his cheeks as Sasuke sat down waiting for the brander to press the heated metal on the back of his neck. "Sa-Sa... Sasuke do- don't!" Naruto made out through his cries of pain. The raven smirked as he took a bit into his mouth steadying his hands on a pole before him he bared his neck the brander turned, the metal glowing red. He approached Sasuke who turned his gaze to the blond. The message his eyes sent, 'I'd do anything... for you... Naruto.' as the metal burned into his skin throwing his head back as the bit slipped from his mouth he screamed loudly. Lids tightly shut he screamed dropping onto the beam before him.
End Flashback
Naruto sat down on the edge of the bed running his fingers gently over the raven's back, carefully avoiding the red mark upon the raven's neck. Naruto slid onto the bed removing his own shirt curling up to the raven, Naruto fell asleep. The desert breeze caressing his skin, and his Sasuke who had wrapped a lazy, sleepy arm around the tanned waist.
A few hours had passed and Sasuke awoke feeling a glaring set of eyes hovering over him and his warm, slightly naked pillow. 'wait... pillows don't even hav- uh... oh what have I done. Alright, last thing I remember is going to sleep... Did I ... ooh no! I'm a sleep raper!!' Sasuke thought to himself before cracking an eye open to see a sleeping, pant-wearing Naruto cuddled up next to him, and a, what Sasuke thought was a scary-looking, if thought's could kill Iruka.
Sitting up he turned his head to Iruka, and to his surprise Kakashi, who normally just stayed out of Sasuke's personal buisiness. "What have you done with Naruto." Iruka gritted out through his teeth, Kakashi who was behind his face mask held up a finger. "Well you see Iruka it's just like what I did to you in the carriage earlier. It all starts with removing clothes, I'm quite ashamed of you Sasuke passing out before you even finish the job." Kakashi said only to be punched by the scar-nosed advisor.
"I swear I didn't do anything to him. I was asleep before he was even in the bed." Sasuke assured climbing from the bed.
Naruto rolled over curling around a pillow, Iruka rolled his eyes guiding Kakashi from the room. Sasuke smiled running a finger over Naruto's cheeks, turning he entered the bathroom shutting the door.
