Sakura didn't pay attention to what was going on between them, she was completely gone in her own world to care.
"Sasuke dear would you play the song again" she went to a cradle that was beside the window and took the bundle of blankets "I think Kazue would like that"
She started rocking gently the blankets' and Naruto tore his eyes from the raven to look at Sakura. Seeing she was holding a plastic baby doll in the blankets, he was going to say something when a growl of Sasuke made him look at him.
"SHUT. UP" The raven was pointing at him with his violin bow and Naruto could see the effort he was putting to not break the violin or the bow with his head by the tight grip he had on both. "Whatever you want to say. DON'T"
The blond only nodded and Sasuke took the violin putting it in his shoulder to start playing it.
Naruto could only watch the scene in front of him and for the first time he realized that this room was exactly the same as the one he had seen in Sasuke's home. The crib, night dresser, some of the photo frames, toys...everything was exactly the same. Even the walls had the same colors and patrons.
The only difference was that in here there were more photos than in the other room. Most had Sasuke with a pregnant Sakura smiling to the camera and in others with a baby not older than a year.
A change in the tune made him look again to Sasuke and he felt like everything else disappeared.
The raven had a calm face he had never seen before, not even when asleep did he let his mask fell, he always looked stressed or preoccupied. But not now, now he looked as if anything else in the world mattered to him. His shoulders relaxed, fingers moving delicately over the strings, the bow moved finely to create the notes. He could see Sasuke was putting every ounce in his body to the music...to this particular song.
He felt mesmerized by the sight. Sakura rocking the baby doll humming softly while Sasuke played the violin. Even he felt like and intruder. They belonged to each other that much he could tell.
The music stopped and Sasuke turned to the bed leaving the violin in its case. Sakura went to him and said something he couldn't hear. Sasuke leaned and kissed her on the cheek and Naruto's heart clenched painfully. He whispered something in her ear that make her smile and nodded.
"Kazue it's time for you to sleep" she went to the crib putting the baby doll there kissing its forehead going to the door she made a shushing sound and motioned Naruto to go with her "let's go outside again"
He nodded looking to Sasuke who was turned closing the case "Sasuke isn't coming?"
"Yes shortly, he told me he needs to find Suigetsu and then he will be joining us" she smiled and kept going to the garden they had been before. He sat in the grass while Sakura walked randomly picking more flowers after retrieving the one she left by the door.
After a while Sasuke came back and just stood beside Naruto without breaking the silence. When five minutes passed and nothing was said Naruto decided he would start the conversation
"So she is your wife" yeah what a great way to go Uzumaki
"Yes"
"Why didn't you tell me before that she was..." he didn't know what to say. Sick. Crazy. Desilusional.
"Like this?" the raven looked down "because it was none of your business"
"The hell it wasn't!" Naruto stood to look Sasuke to the eye "we were lovers Sasuke for god sake"
"And she was my wife but she didn't knew anything about us Naruto" Sasuke glared but Naruto was unaffected "I don't see your point here"
"My point is that everything would have been different if you had told me about your wife sooner"
"Nothing would be different because my wife is DEAD!"
"Sakura isn't dead" he pointed at her
"Yes she is" he looked at her and Naruto could see the sadness in his eyes "that woman there is not Sakura, that's just a shell of what she once was"
"Even so, you didn't said anything to me"
"You didn't stay long enough to listen what I had to tell you"
"Oh" what could he say to that, it was the truth after he discovered the room he didn't want to talk with Sasuke the anger took control over him "I was angry"
"So I was Naruto" Sasuke sat on the grass feeling tired and Naruto did the same" you promised you were going to listen but all you did was shout, punch me and leave"
"Sorry about that" he scratched the back of his neck "but I thought you were gay so the only thing that occurred to me at the time was that all I was for you was an affair"
"You never were that and yes I am gay"
"But then, why did you married her" he turned his face to Sakura.
"It's complicated" he sighed "I discovered I was gay when I turned 12, it was my birthday party and my mother had invited every girl from our circle of friends in order to get me a respectable wife."
"By circle of friends you mean rich girls" the raven chuckled at the tone Naruto used at girls
"Yes, rich girls, and believe me when I tell you I couldn't be alone for the entire reunion all the while my brother just laughed at me not giving a damn that those girls where almost trying to rape me"
"It was almost the time for the cake when suddenly of nowhere the only girl I talked to, kissed me" he closed his eyes making a face of disgust "It wasn't that I didn't liked it, it's just that it felt wrong in a sort of way"
"Yes, I can imagine that, everyone told you since you where little that boys love girls" he smiled and turned again to see Sasuke "but then when a girl gives you a kiss, you don't feel that magic you see in movies"
"Exactly, I thought my mother was going to die from all the giggling, because the girl who kissed me was the daughter of a well known genetic scientist who had almost the prestige of what my father would say was worthy enough for an Uchiha" he smirked seeing the jealousy on Naruto's eyes, seriously it should be illegal to be that expressive "after that, Karin was like a leech, she wouldn't leave my side for the rest of the evening and I didn't said anything because she kept all the other girls away from me, and when everyone ended I asked my brother why I didn't feel anything, and like the asshole he always had been he just laughed and told me I liked boys" he laughed a little bit by the memory " you should imagine how that revelation freaked me out, so I locked myself in my room for almost a week and the only one I allowed with me was Suigetsu who would bring me food. Of course my mother was worried; but Itachi keep telling her not to worry and that I was more that fine"
Sasuke chuckled remembering what he had been doing during that week of isolation "At first Suigetsu was there to just keep me company since I didn't talked and he keep quiet or occupied with something else on my room, but after the fifth day or so I told him what was happening and let's say he helped me with my doubts"
"WHAT DID HE DO?" Suddenly Naruto was on top of him his hands on each side of his head gripping a few strands of raven hair.
"Suigetsu went out dragging Juugo to buy porn for me" he smiled by the surprised look the blond had. Of everything that Sasuke could have said thatwasn't something he had considered "and let me tell you, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be able to do this" he took Naruto's head between his hands and brought it down a little just to give him a kiss.
Oh how I missed thisboth of them tough after being apart for so long. Sasuke pulled Naruto closer leaning back until he was laying on the grass with Naruto between his legs.
When air was something they both needed they pulled apart and Naruto's head was just where Sasuke's heart was and the raven began to stroke Naruto's hair gently looking to the sky
"Anyway, when I got out my brother just smirked and said told you, and after that until I got to high school the girls where a nuisance again, since Karin wasn't near anymore because she went to live in Brazil with his father, all of the girls had just one purpose on mind and although they said it was 'to love me' I think it was more along the lines of rape me…it was in high school that I met Sakura" he now turned to see her not stopping his hand on Naruto's head " she was the girl everyone loved, intelligent, mature, gentle and beautiful, and as always she fell for me, something that I still regret…" he got silence but Naruto didn't urged him to continue. He imagined this was as difficult for the raven to tell as it was for him to hear it "at the time we were only 15 and she knew I was gay, but that didn't stopped her from loving me, and with the time I loved her just like one would love a sister, and that was her to me…my sister. A year later my brother was diagnosed with an asymptomatic HIV infection" he felt Naruto tense and wasn't surprised by that everyone was the same when hearing someone could have aids "and it was when shit hit the fan. Nobody in the family knew I was gay aside from my brother, and since Itachi didn't want to have kids after that diagnosis all my family expected me to continue the Uchiha Lineage"
"And your brother agreed?" Naruto asked cautious as not to anger Sasuke.
He sat dragging Sasuke with him to be face to face although Sasuke was still looking to the sky.
"No, and he still asks me to forgive him, because as he said, one crazy night brought this hell upon both of us" sighing he continued to see the sky trying to not let the tear fall from his eyes "that's when Sakura told me she would give me the Uchiha babies everyone wanted"
He kept silent restraining himself from breaking there but even he felt he was failing miserably " At first i didn't want her to bind herself to me just for that, but after a while I agreed and as soon as we finished high school we went to New York so I could study on the Julliard and she could be on New York University, we could travel together since all my family and hers thought we were engaged and in theprocess of making Uchiha babies. In our last year we got married because she was pregnant, all done in vitro. My family was ecstatic because…"
"It was a boy" Naruto remembered the photo he took out of the room "your son"
"Yes, his name was Kazue, and as you saw he was a little me" he finally looked the blond to the eye and Naruto could see all the hurt Sasuke kept to himself "we came back from New York to Konoha and since the house had been part of her thesis we build it and for three years everything was perfect and even more when she surprised me with the news of another baby coming to the house" a simple tear came falling down his cheek "I didn't knew she planed that nor when she did it, but I couldn't be grateful enough with her, she had sacrificed herself for someone who couldn't love her like she deserved and even so she married me…but as a song says, all good things come to an end, two months before the birth she had an accident at home and lost the baby we had already named Aika, that really affected Sakura the first months after the accident because she always repeated she had failed me and I kept telling her she hadn't...after a year everything was getting normal again but it was like god thought we didn't deserved happiness, when they were on their way home from shopping, some stupid drunk brat crashed them on the road, Kazue died during surgery and Sakura recovered well" he let his head fall down and he felt the wetness of tears rolling downs his cheeks."But I had to get her committed after her attempt of suicide" He felt the brush of lips on them but couldn't find the force to look into those blue eyes that could read him like a damn open book, and when he felt Naruto hugging him he couldn't hold out anymore and all his walls crumbled breaking him down. He hide his face on the juncture of Naruto's shoulder and let himself cry like never before.
In the past he never let the events crush him like this because he had to be strong for Sakura, for her family, for HIS family…but mostly for him…now it was like he could let all come out without having to worry about anything...
A pair or arms snake over his torso and soft kisses where given to his neck. He felt strong arms disappear and reality came to him. Sakura was the one kissing him. She was the one hugging him from behind. He turned his head to look at her and received another kiss on the cheek.
"Don't cry Sasuke" she leaned her head between his shoulder blades "What would Itachi say if he saw you"
He chuckled by the comment...that had been a very Sakura thing to say. This where the moments since the accident that he cherished the most. The ones where Sakura would be more like her old self. When she wouldn't be immersed in that world where Kazue was still a baby.
"You are right" he cleaned the tears with one hand while the other rested on one of hers "Sorry about this"
"This are for you" she released him putting the flower bouquet she had been collecting on his lap
"Thank you" he gave her a kiss on her hand which made her giggle.
Naruto had been silent not wanting to intrude between them. And he felt in love again. It wasn't that he stopped loving the raven, but things were different after hearing of his wife...but now he realized he had royally fucked up everything when leaving Sasuke.
Sasuke moved the flowers to his right and Sakura went to rest against him looking to the sky. He motioned Naruto to sit on his left and took his hand embracing Sakura with the other.
Words weren't needed, their actions spoke for them.
Soon Sakura was asleep snoring softly. Orochimaru had come to give her the medication and Sasuke explained it helped to prevent the memory attacks she would have when she actually remembered the accident. For Naruto it was quite interesting to what length's the human body would go to prevent self damage since Sakura couldn't remember ever having a second baby or when Kazue had grown up, and that the reason for the baby doll was to maintain her on the illusion of having a baby.
When the air got colder they took Sakura to her room also getting a vase for the flowers. When she was tucked on bed both men left the room quietly going to the main building holding hands.
"Am sorry Sasuke" the blond looked at him from the corner of his eye but Sasuke kept looking in front of them "I should have kept my promise and listen to what you had to tell me"
"It was also my fault" the raven sighed and stopped in the middle of the hall "I didn't have to keep this from you"
"Yeah well that's true " the blond smiled giving a soft kiss to the raven "but there is something else I should be mad about you"
Sasuke looked at him lifting an eyebrow in a silent question
"You never told me you were the flame!" Naruto let go of Sasuke's hand and flailed his arms "And you know how much I love your music since I was a kid!"
"You never asked" he chuckled and looked to the blond "and how could you love my music when you were a kid if my first album came out when i was seventeen?"
"Because before that you played in a duet" Naruto looked pleased with himself when Sasuke smiled confirming his statement
"You sure are a fan Naruto, not many people knew I used to perform with my mother since I was six" Sasuke started walking again with his hands on his pockets Naruto doing the same
"He, I knew it when I grew up and listened to your first album, at first I had my doubts but I was sure when I heard your second one" the passed the garden with a quicker pace and entered the main building "and believe me when I tell you it's quite difficult to get information on the media about you or your family, because now I know where all the money comes from"
"Yes, my family has been very dedicated to the music. And my father thinks it's better to let people only know us by our music not our names"
"What a wise man your father is" he nodded in agreement. He could clearly picture quite the problems Sasuke could have if everyone knew the real identity of the flamesince he was very famous. "So now that I know it you will have to play for me"
Naruto sent a radiant smile to the raven who couldn't stop himself from crashing their lips together in a fierce kiss. Hands moved to get a grip on blond strands to get Naruto closer and Sasuke could feel a tongue brushing against his lips asking for permission, something he granted without much thought not wanting to stop this moment for anything in the world.
Naruto pushed him until his back bumped gently against a wall without breaking the kiss and the blonds body was pressed against him making him feel like he was on fire. A hand played with the hem of his shirt until it was tugged up a little to let said hand touch the skin available. By every second both felt like they were going to explode right where they were and they wouldn't have stopped If it hadn't been for the cough and chuckle they heard near them.
"Oh come on get a room!" Suigetsu chuckled seeing both men flushed and gasping for air
"What's with this inappropriate show of yours, Sasuke?" Kisame crossed his arms with a smug smirk.
"You have to be shitting me" Naruto turned against Sasuke leaning his head on the ravens shoulder
"Sui we should wait for them at the front" Kisame laughed walking to the parking lot tossing over his shoulder "They need to...cool down a little"
"I think it's more like they need a cold shower"
"Suigetsu" the tone in Sasuke's voice and his glare told Suigetsu he was two seconds of murdering him in a very painfully way if he didn't shut up and leave.
"Yes yes boss am going" he shacked his head following Kisame to the front
"What a bad timing those two have" Naruto chuckled giving a last kiss to the raven before taking a step back.
Sasuke groaned but was grateful at Naruto since he knew both of them would finish things with or without public "I have to agree with you on that"
"So..what happens now?" the blond scratched his nose in a nervous manner.
"About what Naruto?"
"About...us"
"If you think this ends here Naruto you certainly are wrong" Sasuke took his tie in one hand until his lips where brushing "Because as soon as we get home you won't stop screaming my name"
He liked his lips and turned around not missing the lust in the blond eyes.
"But I wonder who will be screaming more" Naruto shouted to the raven following him to the car.
He REALLY couldn't wait to get home.
The End
