Provoked

By: Itachi Silverwolf

Naruto walks the streets with Sasuke near. The blonde happily bounces with each step. The raven male keeps watch of the scenery. Though Naruto glances back towards Sasuke curious. "How come you don't ever take blood from the donors?" Sasuke tilts his head a moment trying to decide an answer that would not give away the whole reason.

"I do. But it's not my job to stuff myself. My job is to watch over you." Half a lie wouldn't harm, right? Besides Sasuke really did not wish to explain anything he didn't have to. Watching Naruto made it seem like the blonde was satisified with the answer. For now Sasuke watches Naruto bounce past a movie theater only to return and pull the raven vampire inside along with him.

"Naruto." There was laughter at Sasuke's protest. "I swear..." The comment ends up null when the other realizes the look across Naruto's face. It's gone from being lit up to pouting. "Fine." There's another grin as Naruto drags Sasuke along towards the counter. It doesn't take long for the blonde to not only pick the movie but also decide his snacks. Sasuke doubted much of the items purchased would be eaten in the theater. After all Naruto had just had a meal of blood not long ago. Most likely Naruto would hide the candy within his pockets for later. Not as if he had to... the blonde was the prince.

In the darkness around the pair the Uchiha opens a paper wrapper. The menthol tasting capsule had a horrible taste. But the raven vampire had become used to it. Besides it would keep him from being tempted into turning the theater visit into a bit more. Unlike Naruto Sasuke didn't have exactly have a ready supply of blood whenever it was wanted.

"Popcorn?" There was a slight shake of the other's head. Though after watching the blonde a moment the refusal was resended. There was laughter from Naruto as Sasuke realizes popcorn and the disolving capsule do not mix. Someone from down the asile looks towards Naruto. Leaning against the raven vampire a bit cobalt eyes cose briefly. "After this what do you want to do?" Sasuke doesn't give an answer to the blonde. Instead he gestures for Naruto to pay attention to his movie. There's a small sigh from Naruto; which the blonde believes will go unnoticed.

Oynx eyes glance towards Naruto. What was the blonde disappointed about? He had gotten to disappear shopping and was now watching a movie. Had he been with anyone else they'd told him a stern 'no' to it all. Yet here the blonde was pouting while staring at the screen. Sasuke takes another bit of popcorn.

Naruto half smirks. "Then it's not the way the popcorn tastes?" Sasuke shakes his head lightly. "What caused the face you made?" Sasuke waits a moment hoping Naruto's attention will go back towards the flickering picture. Instead the blonde stares at the other. Digging through his pockets Sasuke reveals a a second paper wrapped capsule. Naruto takes the item and sniffs it. Sasuke watches the royal wrinkle his nose. The raven vampires snatches the object from Naruto's hand. "What is that?"

Sasuke sighs. "Something you don't have to worry about." The blonde seems puzzled. Sasuke shoves the wrapped capsule back into his pocket. "Do you trust me Naruto?" There's a nod from the blonde without a second of waiting. "Then just trust that it's nothing bad and leave it at that."

Naruto sighs a bit loudly attracting a bit of attention. A glare from Sasuke leaves the person staring turning away. "You never tell me anything." The blonde pouts and then hides against Sasuke a bit. The raven male watches Naruto's actions. Staring downward towards the other's throat makes Sasuke move slightly. Naruto looks at Sasuke briefly. "You can if you want. I won't tell."

Sasuke looks away. "You know taking blood for you is punishable by death." There's a sigh. "Naruto, it's a mix of blood and herbs. It's not the best thing to be tasting. But it has a purpose." Naruto looks at Sasuke a moment knowing even if he was bitten it'd be a secret kept. Though Sasuke's words tell him there would be no drawing of his blood.

A/N: Bit one sided maybe? Hn... should I keep going?
