Naruto's Uke Chap 3
It was a new day in Konohagakure, every person sprouted up fresh and ready to continue on with their consistent lives that never really diverted from predicable, except for the attack by omnipotent, power-hungry evil ninja that may happen every once in a spontaneous while. But yeah, generally everyone appeared very content with the state of things, except for Sasuke, who was sitting at his breakfast table, glaring at his cup of black coffee with the intensity of one who believed that they could start fires with their eyes. And though he hadn't drank not one sip since he had brewed it and sat there a good forty-five minutes ago, Sasuke looked like he really needed that coffee, because unlike most in Konohagakure last night Sasuke had gotten no sleep. And as a result he woke up- no, crawled out of bed that morning looking like something his cat would sometimes deliver proudly to his feet ever so often. But what got to him, what made his chakra sizzle off of his body like the hot glaze of the sun against the flat sands of Suna, was the fact that he had wasted an entire night of perfectly good rest (something that came rarely to a busy ANBU ninja) thinking about something Naruto had done.
The Uchiha's eyes narrowed slightly at the thought, the first movement he had made in a while, as he felt suddenly irritated. He hated it when Naruto was difficult to understand, it always left him feeling small and powerless, and then he got sudden urges to hit things (preferably blonde things), he felt childish, just like the pout that was unconsciously gracing his lips as he thought about it right now.
But why would he kiss me? Maybe- maybe he was still drunk? Sasuke thought, one of many possible reasons he had come up with since that engraving moment yesterday. But- maybe he was thinking into it too much? It was Naruto after all, Sasuke thought that if he had ever took everything his best friend had done seriously then he'd of probably died from a stress provoked heart attack by the age of eight.
"Huh." Sasuke chuckled shortly, a small smile on his lips as some tiresome, but warm, memories came back to him making his dark eyes soften from its glare and easing some tension from his shoulders. But his thoughts were interrupted by knocking at his door. Sasuke knew who it was by their chakra and went to find out what his aniki wanted so early in the morning. He opened the door to Itachi holding to his chest Sasuke's pet cat, the blue Abyssinian looked very comfortable in the arms of the older Uchiha and her very loud purring stopped when she turned her head, which was a moment ago cuddled into Itachi, and saw her master glaring at her.
"She was sleeping on my bed again." Itachi told Sasuke with a little smile at his brother's expression.
Sasuke held out his hand to take the cat back, "Sorry." He said as Itachi rest her in his arms, he had to also unhook the cat's persistent claws from his shirt. "I forgot to feed her again."
Sasuke turned and let the cat drop disregardingly out of his arms inside the house and when she tried to run out again toward Itachi, he pushed her away from the door with his foot.
"You really should take better care of her Sasuke." Itachi told him as he watched this.
"Hn." Sasuke grunted half-heartedly, he had heard enough about that from Sakura. For reasons unknown to him the girl had given him a kitten as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. Sakura seemed to find something very depressing about Sasuke living by himself. Since then every time the two of them saw each other Sakura made it a point to remind him of exactly how expensive the imported flea ball was and that if Sasuke neglected it like he did that guinea pig she had gotten him for his 14th birthday she'd never say a word to him again.
As they stood there for a quiet moment, Sasuke watched his brother's blunt eyes travel up his face to the words he hadn't even bothered to try to wash off. Sasuke had checked it, the marker really was permanent so unless he pealed his forehead off he'd have to wait for it to fade for itself.
"I heard you didn't kill him." Itachi said, "did something happen to make you change your mind?"
Sasuke's eyes widened for a moment at his older brother's accuracy, he glanced to the side wondering if or how he should answer that question, but then Itachi continued, "It may be good that you didn't though."
"What do you mean by that?" Sasuke asked him, his brother had already begun to leave, heading down the short walk towards Sasuke's gate. He looked over his shoulder before he opened it, "When has Naruto ever had any problems communicating what's on his mind?" Sasuke watched his brother go then went back inside, he dropped himself on his sofa in the living room he had absentmindedly cleaned last night, the room where all this had started.
The cat was sleeping besides him and his eyes fell and stayed on her fluff covered stomach as it softly rose and fell with her breaths.
Itachi was right, Naruto really was trying to tell him something subliminally, and being Naruto it was weird that he hadn't out rightly came out and said it. The look the blonde had given him, the indefinable emotions that had filled his eyes when Sasuke had asked Naruto why he had written what he did on his forehead, it meant something and Sasuke wasn't going to let go until he found out what it was. And maybe- the kiss had something to do with it too?
"Sasuke-kun?" Sakura said as she came down the stairs and saw him waiting there in her kitchen. The kunoichi at first looked surprised but then her face fell as she thought about it a little more, "Oh great, don't tell me the cat died."
Sasuke rolled his eyes, "No- unfortunately." He said and Sakura folded her arms and looked crossed. Sasuke could tell that she was about to start again about the stupid cat but then her eyes shifted up his face and an amused look that too closely resembled the ones the Hokage gave him yesterday came over her.
"No way," she laughed as she came closer, "So it's really true. I heard about it from, well- everyone, but I still couldn't believe it." Sasuke's eyebrow twitched and he had to remind himself that he had come here to find out why Naruto had done this to him and not to renew his reasons for wanting to kill the blonde. "Well if you're searching for him he already came yesterday looking like he'd seen a ghost and asking me to hide him, but then he decided that my house would probably one of the first places you would look. I can't understand why he would play a prank like that if he knew he couldn't handle the consequences, but then again it is Naruto."
"I don't think it's a prank," Sasuke told Sakura and the girl tilted her head to the side as she listened to him, "And I'm not looking for him right now. I wanted to ask you something."
Sakura smiled at the fact that Sasuke had actually came all the way to her house just to ask her a question. A couple of years ago she might have passed out just at the sight of Sasuke here, waiting for her in her kitchen, but that really was years ago, now her two teammates were more like brothers. "Well what is it?" she asked.
"What does uke mean?" Sasuke asked her, "The Hokage told me that it meant cat but I have reasons to believe-" the Uchiha's words paused when he noticed the expression on Sakura's face.
"Y-you don't know what uke means?" she said, eyes wide. "Really?"
Sasuke almost sighed out loud. He was about to make some biting remark when Sakura sharply 'shhed' him and then grabbed his arm tightly as her now very dark eyes glanced through the door way leading out of the kitchen. Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her sudden suspicious behavior.
"Where did my mother go after she let you in?" she asked him in a serious voice.
"She said she was going to buy some more tea or something like that. Sakura-"
"SHH!" she snapped again tugging Sasuke's arm threateningly to make him stay quiet. The other boy stilled under her command, though he didn't like it, and watched as Sakura's eyes turned away from the doorway and now stared heatedly at him and he couldn't help but wonder, just a little bit, if he was in some type of danger.
"I have something," Sakura said slowly, he voice measured with equal darkness and mystery in every word, "that I need to show you Sasuke-kun."
"Okay." Sasuke said a little unsurely.
"I've never showed this to anyone." Sakura continued, her hold on Sasuke's pale arm gradually turning into a clamp.
"Then why are you going to show it to me?"
"Because- I'll never have a chance like this again. Sasuke-kun you're probably the only person in the whole of Konoha who doesn't know what uke means," (Sasuke's jaw tightened as he wondered why she had to rub it in), "so I'm going to teach you in the best way possible, by showing you myself."
Sasuke didn't say anything; he just let Sakura pull him up the stairs and into her bedroom. There the girl released him and he watched with well masked curiosity as she walked to her double door closet, opened it then pushed aside all the clothing that hung there so that solid wall was exposed. Sakura then stood straight as she worked her hand seals quickly, Sasuke couldn't follow them all, as he was behind her, but he caught the gist of some type of hiding or illusionary jutsu.
"Hn." He smirked a little at his teammate's usual cleverness as the wall turned into a door. Sakura gestured for him to follow as she opened it and when Sasuke stepped in he saw a room that was just about the same size as Sakura's bedroom, just that this place was clustered with bookshelves, almost like a miniature library, full of what looked like manga. Sasuke cocked a brow at this, since when was Sakura an otaku? a freaky secret one at that. But that wasn't all, Sakura stepped to the side so that Sasuke could walk further inside the little manga den and he saw for the first time the posters that covered every inch of space on the walls. For a moment the younger Uchiha frowned as he couldn't understand. They were all of men, some hugging each other or posing together with cute backgrounds of sakura petals or cupcakes, even candy, winking or giving peace. But there were others that made him quietly gulp. In those the men were mostly on top of each other, blushing, nipping, tongues out or glancing suggestively back at Sasuke as they burst the top button of the guy who was squirming under them shirt. Others were just too much; Sasuke was beginning to feel, to his surprise, a little uncomfortable in here. Sakura giggled at the faint, almost unnoticeable, hue of pink that had coloured the Uchiha's cheeks.
She couldn't contain herself anymore and she squealed excitedly as she glomped her teammate from behind, "Welcome to the world of yaoi Sasuke-kun!"
