Declaimer: I do not own Naruto, some guy named Kishimoto Masashi does.
I really appreciate every review. Hope you all continue to enjoy~ I know I update this story rather infrequently so I'm posting this chapter pretty much right after the last one to hopefully hold you guys over until I put out the next one~
Ok I'm starting my sixth chapter.
Chapter 6
On with the Story
A man stood still in a room, arms folded behind his back in a disciplined manner. The room he stood in was adorned with lavish furniture and expensive decorations. He looked out of his window, that window overlooking the village he lead. This man was none other than the third Hokage, Sarutobi. Behind him was his desk and chair, the top of that disk filled with stacks of paper he had yet to attend to. He was always behind...so much to do. As he stood silently, Sarutobi turned his head slightly to look towards the door to his room. As if on cue there was a knock against the wood.
"Enter." Sarutobi spoke out in a calm yet gruff voice, taking out a pipe from within his robe.
Slowly the door creaked open and a shadowy figure stepped through. That figure wore a chunin uniform, a slash mark across his face. The figure took a few steps in before kneeling on one knee.
"Hokage-sama, may I have a moment?" The figure spoke in a respectful tone.
"Of course Iruka. And how many times do I have to tell you? You don't have to kneel to me." Sarutobi spoke with his back still facing Iruka, the old man staring out the window once more. Iruka nodded before standing up.
"At least once more, as always Hokage-sama." Iruka spoke with a soft smile. Sarutobi just nodded before taking another puff from his pipe, blowing smoke off to the side.
"How can I help you today Iruka?" Sarutobi asked in a curious manner, still looking out on his village. Iruka hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up in a tentative manner.
"It's about Naruto."
A little while later in Naruto's apartment…
Two figures lay motionlessly atop a large bed. Well, large relative to their small size. Those figures were none other than Naruto and Gaara, sound asleep even as the morning sun show through their window. The boy's were curled up close together, legs entwined, arms and tails wrapped around each other in an intimate embrace as they slept soundly.
Naruto was the first wake, eyes fluttering open tiredly to be greeted by Gaara's sleeping face. Naruto smiled in a content manner, taking a few minutes to just continue to lay there and stare at his best friend's peaceful expression. After a while though Naruto leaned his head forward and began to nuzzle his nose into Gaara's, giving his partner a little eskimo kiss.
"Gaara-kun, it's time to wake up." Naruto whispered in a tender tone, bringing a hand up to slide his fingers along the side of Gaara's face, up into his hair, to begin lightly massaging the other boy's scalp. Gaara sighed lightly in delight before stirring, his eyes fluttering open in a tired way to be graced by the sight of Naruto's welcoming expression.
"Five more minutes." Gaara said with a tender smile adorning his lips, gazing adoringly into Naruto's demonic, red, fox eyes.
"Ok, it's the weekend so we can take our time." Naruto stated simply, continuing to softly massage Gaara's scalp as they stared at each other in peace.
The first few months of school had flown by quickly for the two boys. They had both decided to continue going to school. Not so much for the education value, since Kyuubi had already taught them everything they were currently learning in school anyway; but mostly because of the social environment. Despite their appearance, the other kids had accepted them. Naruto wasn't obnoxious or goofy, or a "dobe." He, along with Gaara, mostly just kept to themselves and bonded with Hinata, who they had grown quite fond of. Both of them also showed themselves to be very advanced and it looked like, along with Sasuke, they would be the top of their class. Despite this fact the two boys were humble, and even drew the attention of a few girls in class. Gaara even drew the attention of some of the boys. Everyone thought he was a girl since his voice was so high and the two demon boys constantly held hands during class. But neither one of them cared very to school, living in the village, it was all just courtesy by now. They held no attachment to the village, the two never forgetting how cruel people could be, despite even the best of intentions.
So Naruto and Gaara stuck close to each other, trusting only each other, and their parents of course, who monitored their interactions with others very closely.
Having finally gotten up, Naruto and Gaara were currently taking a shower together. Despite both being naked, it was very innocent. They bathed each other and played, continuing to be the children that they were. Deep inside the recesses of their minds, Kyuubi and Shukaku watched from behind their cage, satisfied smiles on their faces.
While Naruto and Gaara continued to shower, both of them stopped at the same time. The ears on top of their heads twitched as a knock could be heard at the door to their apartment. They looked at each other in confusion, wordlessly. Who would ever knock on their door?
"I've got it. I'll be back ok?" Naruto spoke up, taking the initiative while leaning forward and placing a gentle kiss against Gaara's forehead, a display of affection they'd learn from watching Kyuubi and Shukaku. Gaara nodded happily before leaning forward and placing a kiss on Naruto's forehead as well. Being a little bit shorter than Naruto, Gaara had to rise up on his tippy toes.
Ok." Gaara replied in a tiny, sweet voice. Naruto nodded before grabbing a nearby towel and hopping out of the shower. Gaara stayed behind to finish in the shower by himself. After a quick moment of toweling off, Naruto opened the door to the bathroom and went into his room to grab his clothes. He dressed himself quickly as another series of soft knocks rattled against his door. Adoring his blindfold and hooded robe, putting his hood up, Naruto walked out of this room and over to the only door of his apartment. Without hesitation he opened the door.
Standing behind that door, his hand up, ready to knock against was a tall old man. The robes of the Hokage covering his body. He had a large pipe hanging from his lips. Sarutobi looked down on Naruto with a tired yet soft gaze.
"Hello Naruto." Sarutobi spoke gently. Naruto looked up in with a cheery smile. Of course it was him. Sarutobi was the only person that ever visited him. Though it had been a while since the last visit. He was always nice.
"Oh hey Old man. What's up?" Naruto spoke in a calm tone. Sarutobi shook his head lightly.
"Didn't I ask you to stop calling me that?" Sarutobi spoke with a sigh.
"Yep!" Naruto replied quickly, that big grin still across his face. When Naruto grinned Sarutobi couldn't help noticing the boy's elongated canines. In fact, he had been quickly taking in the boy's new look all together.
"May I come in?" Sarutobi asked politely. Naruto just nodded before stepping to the side, closing the door as the man entered. Sarutobi walked in casually, taking in the environment. Not much had changed about the house, at least not the living room at least. He did notice that the water was running in the bathroom but he didn't say anything. The old man walked over to the window, looking out once again on the poor, dreary neighborhood Naruto lived in. The morning sun did little to lighten the mood. If anything it gave light to the dirt and poverty that entangled the district. Naruto watched the Hokage closely, even behind that blindfold. And Naruto's adopted parents watched closely as well.
"So what's up?" Naruto asked casually while moving his arms in front of himself and slipping his hands into the sleeves of his robe, looking like a monk now. Sarutobi kept his back to Naruto before speaking.
"Naruto, can you remove that robe and blindfold. I know why you wear it. Please, let me see." Sarutobi spoke calmly. Naruto's eyes widened behind that blindfold, his body tensing up. Should he do it? How would the Hokage react? The boy was frozen with indecision.
"Do it kit. And relax, you have nothing to fear from this man." Kyuubi's voice rang inside Naruto's head. Naruto nodded obediently before lifting his hands to take off his blindfold first, revealing those feral eyes of his. Then off came the robe, revealing his furry red ears and the two slender tails that now swung freely behind him. Naruto now stood only in a pair of boxers, his arms crossed now as his courage returned to him. As Naruto stripped, Sarutobi turned around, his eyes widened in shock. The sight before him was...different. Had Kyuubi escaped? Was this truly still Naruto? Question raced through his mind but he appeared calm on the outside. Being a Master Ninja allowed for that.
"I see." Sarutobi spoke before taking a long pause. "Then Kyuubi is free?" He questioned while taking a puff of his pipe. Naruto just shook his head, arms still crossed.
"Nope. Mommy is still locked up." Naruto said in a "matter of fact" sort of tone while relaxing and placing his hands behind his head now. Sarutobi raised in an eyebrow.
"Mommy?" He questioned the fox-boy in front of him. Naruto just nodded.
"Mommy." Naruto repeated. Sarutobi stared down at Naruto for a moment before closing his eyes.
"I see. How long?" Sarutobi continued his questions.
"Just over a year now." Naruto answered with a small yawn, still waking up. Sarutobi continued to watch the boy closely. He still seemed to be Naruto, but he had to make sure.
"May I see?" Sarutobi asked in a respectful manner. Naruto paused for a moment.
"Let him see." Said Kyuubi, who still watched closely. Naruto nodded once more. Lowering his arms to his side while looking up to Sarutobi expectantly. Sarutobi nodded in acknowledgement before stepping towards the boy. He raised a hand and placed two fingers against Naruto's head, closing his own eyes.
Sarutobi now stood along a cliff, looking over a vast sea. The sun shone down upon him, the sounds of waves crashing against rocks below him rang in his ears. Animal noises resounded about. He could even make out what appeared to be seagulls in the distance. It was like a beach. The wind blew against his face gently, causing Sarutobi to sigh and close his eyes to enjoy the breeze.
"Enjoying the view?" Spoke a sultry voice from behind him. Sarutobi turned around slowly to be greeted by the sight of the nine tailed fox. But things were definitely different. She wasn't behind some cage in a dreary tunnel. She was now sitting in a grassy field on a park bench, a forest behind her. She was in human form, a red kimono adorning her curvy figure. Nine long fox tails rested behind her. To her side was a man Sarutobi didn't recognize. A dark skinned man with two raccoon ears atop his head. One large raccoon tail sat behind him as he sat right next to Kyuubi on that bench. His arms were resting on the back of the bench, one arm lazily draped around Kyuubi's shoulder. He only wore a pair of brown pants, his muscular chest exposed, showing off a slew of black tattoos and scars. His eyes were black, with gold diamonds decorating his pupils.
"You must be Shukaku." Sarutobi stated, still in a formal manner. Shukaku nodded silently, keeping his intense gaze fixed on Sarutobi. Sarutobi looked around before sighing. "So the seal is broken." He stated solemnly. Kyuubi let out a sultry chuckle when hearing those words, a confident smirk plastered across her face.
"It's still intact. Don't have a heart attack." Kyuubi stated in a taunting manner while gesturing over to a small shack where that piece of paper where the kanji for "seal," stuck to it. It was torn heavily, only a fourth of the paper still remaining. Kyuubi, sitting in a delicate posture with her legs folded, legs crossed over one another, then looking to Sarutobi calmly. "Though maybe it's missing a piece of two." The woman stated while tilting her head to the side and watching Sarutobi with an amused gaze. "It's been a long time Sarutobi."
"I know." Sarutobi replied, not really feeling much better about the situation, seeing the tattered state of that seal. "So…it seems you've added to your family." He went on, taking a puff of his pipe. Kyuubi narrowed her eyes slightly.
"It won't replace the one your people stole from me, but yes, I have." Kyuubi spoke in a low yet suddenly aggravated tone. Shukaku kept his face expressionless, letting Kyuubi do all the talking. Sarutobi shook his head.
"I've told you, it wasn't us. They were rogue-nin. We still hunt them to this day for what they did." Sarutobi replied, having had this conversation before. Kyuubi just snarled, baring her white, sharpened teeth.
"Rogue nin from your village. Training by you, raises by you. You allowed it to happen. Take responsibility for the actions of your pathetic species, and your own mistakes." Kyuubi snapped, though still maintaining her seated position. Sarutobi just sighed, turning a bit to the side to stare off at the see.
"I do every day. So what now. Will you use Naruto to get revenge? Even though the people in this village aren't responsible for what happened? Will you repeat the past?" Sarutobi asked, refocusing on Kyuubi. Kyuubi stared at him for a while before closing her eyes, calming herself.
"I know who is to blame. But that isn't my point. You, humans, your capacity for love is only rivaled by your capacity to hate and sacrifice others for your own goals, even if it means doing monstrous things to your own kind. And while you live in chaos, other species must pay for your mistakes, and your ignorance. You know as well as I that Naruto should be seen as a hero by your pathetic village. Yet they treat him like scum." She went on, speaking much calmer now. Sarutobi nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we humans are capable of horrendous things. But many of us still try to do the right thing. Are you so much better than us?" Sarutobi asked while looking down at his own hand in thought. Kyuubi just scoffed.
"We'd never treat our own kind like you do. You humans rule this world, and yet you've squandered it on war, rape, slavery. This village is a testiment to your failure as a species to live in peace. You train your children to be murderers. Can you honestly say you've done the right thing?" Kyuubi went on. Sarutobi paused for a moment before replying.
"It's the best we can do. We do what we must, same as you. We aren't so different Kyuubi." Kyuubi paused for a moment before looking past Sarutobi, out on the sea.
"You are right, in many ways we are the same. But we demons have something you humans will never have. A bond, a love, a connection you can never know. That bond drives us to harmony as strongly as your human greed drives you to war. Your kind has failed Sarutobi. We both want the same thing, peace, to have our families grow up safe and happy. But you can never have that. It's against your nature." Kyuubi lectured.
"And you can?"
"Yes."
"How?"
"The only way you can understand is to become one of us." Kyuubi explained. This caused Sarutobi to raise a brow.
"You would bring a human into your fold? Don't you just want to kill us all?" Sarutobi asked in confusion. Kyuubi just shook her head before looking over to Shukaku at her side, a tender smile adorning her face.
"Yes, I would welcome everyone into my family. It may surprise you that I don't want to kill." Kyuubi stated softly.
"Then what do you want?"
"Peace." Kyuubi explained shortly. They stayed their in silence for a while before Sarutobi finally spoke up.
"This peace, how many lives will pay for it?"
"As many as is needed. Otherwise it won't last."
"Do you really expect there to be peace from blood."
"Yes. With humans, with your nature, there can be no other way." Kyuubi stated bluntly.
"How long?" Sarutobi asked. Kyuubi just tilted her head curiously.
"How long will the peace last?" Sarutobi just shook his head.
"How long before you try to implement this "peace?" Sarutobi asked in a solemn manner.
"You will be long gone before that. The time must be right. Because if we fail, we die." Sarutobi quirked a brow at that.
"You are willing to risk you life and the lives of your family for this peace?" Kyuubi stayed silent for a long time, her eyes closing. This was a very important question.
"If it means no other child will ever again have to endure what my boys have endured, if it means no other mother will ever have to endure what I have endured, then yes, it's worth the risk. And if I fail and we die, it will just be another chapter in Mankind's long and pointless bloody saga." Kyuubi stated in a resolute matter. Sarutobi nodded in understanding.
"This peace, will it last."
"It will."
"Ok." Sarutobi stated before turning his back on the demons and walking to the edge of the cliff. He then turned his head to the side slightly, pipe still dangling from his lips.
"I trust you Kyuubi. I know you. I know what ever you have planned you've thought it through for longer than any human has lived. I know you wouldn't let harm come to your child, and you wouldn't go through with that plan if it wouldn't work. All I ask is that when the time comes, you make sure it lasts. Don't screw up." Sarutobi went on in a serious tone. Despite being lectured by a human Kyuubi nodded. She had great respect for this man. Probably the only human she respected. She no longer considered her children human.
"I won't. But first I'm going to give my children the childhood they deserve." The woman stated bluntly. Sarutobi nodded solemnly. none of this should have happened. Naruto should be looked on as a hero, but despite his guidance, he can't change human nature, not even of the villagers that look up to him. He nodded in understanding before breaking the link.
Sarutobi now opened his eyes, to be greeted by the bright, feral eyes of Naruto who was still staring up at him. They were still in the exact same position. Not much time had passed since time is distorted when entered Kyuubi's "cage."
"So how'd it go?" Naruto asked in a bubbly manner. He knew his mother and Sarutobi would meet again. She'd told him about the talks they used to have. Sarutobi just sighed.
"It went fine Naruto. But weren't you listening in?" Sarutobi inquired curiously. Naruto just nodded.
"I was, but I want to hear your impression. Mommy can be a bit...intense." Naruto said while giggling a bit and covering his mouth with both hands as he did. Sarutobi stared down at Naruto's innocent display before ruffling his hair.
"Yea she can be." Sarutobi said while his hands brushed at Naruto's new fox ears. At least they were new to him. Naruto let out a small murr of pleasure. As he did a door to their side opened and out stepped Gaara from the bathroom. He was covered from chest to toe with a large white towel. He had his eyes closed while wrapping another towel around his long red hair.
"So who was at the door Naru-kun?" Gaara asked before opened his eyes to see Sarutobi petting Naruto's head. Gaara's eyes widened in surprise as he froze up in shock. Naruto laughed lightly at Gaara before holding out his hand and gesturing the other boy over. Sarutobi pulled his hand away from Naruto's head and watched the two with his eyebrow raised, looking on as Gaara quickly darted over to Naruto and held his hand, huddling close to Naruto and whispering in his ear. Naruto placed a kiss against Gaara's head to reassure him.
"It's ok. He's nice." Naruto spoke gently to his partner. Gaara nodded in acknowledgement while clinging to Naruto's arm, still only wearing that towel. Sarutobi smiled warmly down at the two boys.
"I see. So here is the family. Anyone else I should know about?" Sarutobi asked while maintain that warm smile. Naruto shook his head.
"Nope, it's just us." Naruto answered while wrapping his arm around Gaara's waist and pulling their bodies closer, his tail wrapped around Gaara as well. Sarutobi watched the sight as a small red blush tinted his cheeks.
"Too cute." The old man thought to himself before walking past Naruto and Gaara.
"Well stay out of trouble you two. And Kyuubi, you might want to teach your boys some henge jutsu to hide their features. I can't control the behavior of other villagers." Sarutobi said before taking another step forward, but before poofing away he had one more thing to say.
"Stay together you two." He whispered before poofing away in a whirl of leaves.
Naruto and Gaara watched as Sarutobi left before Naruto suddenly picked Gaara up bridal style to walk him into their bedroom. Gaara let out a girlish squeal from that abrupt action.
"What was that all about Naru-kun?" Gaara asked in a worried tone. Naruto just shook his head.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you everything." He said while sitting Gaara down at the edge of their bed. He then moved over to their one dresser and pulled out a large brush that Gaara had made himself. Naruto returned to Gaara, handing the other boy the brush.
"Brush my hair?"
With Kyuubi...
Kyuubi sat on the bench, looking out on the beach. Shukaku was no longer at her side. He was standing at the edge of the cliff, looking out on the ocean in thought. After a moment Kyuubi stood up, walking over to Shukaku with graceful steps. She stopped behind him and leaned into his back, placing her hand on his shoulders and lightly rubbing against his flesh.
"What are you thinking Love?" Kyuubi asked in a gentle tone. Shukaku didn't respond immediately. But after a moment he spoke up.
"What you have planned, can you really do it?" He asked in a worried tone. Something Kyuubi wasn't used to hearing. She sighed and laid the side of her head against Shukaku's back, enjoying the feel of his muscles against her cheek.
"Not only can I do it, but I will do it. Nothing will stop me. I have to do it...for them." The women said in a resolute manner, her eyes drifting off as she thought of her boys who were currently enjoying each other's company. Shukaku nodded, satisfied with that answer. He then turned around and embrace her with strong arms, standing a good bit taller than she did, his body towering over her.
"Good." He spoke shortly before falling back, bringing Kyuubi with him as they both fell off the cliff and into the sea, both with content smiles on their faces.
Back in Naruto's apartment...
Naruto sat along the floor, his head resting between Gaara's legs. Gaara sat on the edge of the bed, cradling Naruto's head while using that custom made brush to groom through Naruto spiky locks. The activity was futile. Naruto's hair was just too rough, but he did it because Naruto enjoyed it. It was like a massage. As Gaara brushed his partner's hair Naruto explained the happenings that went on with Sarutobi.
"Mommy sounds like she's going to destroy the world or something." Gaara commented with a matter-of-fact sort of way. Naruto just shrugged.
"Who knows. She hasn't exactly told me her plan or what it entails. And from the way she spoke, we won't have to worry about it for a long time." Naruto guessed.
He then stood up, stretching his back a little bit. Gaara watched him idly, placing the brush to the side. Naruto turned around to face Gaara, staring down at him with a mixed gaze. Gaara stared back, averting his eye for a bit.
"I just wish we could all live in peace and be safe." Gaara whispered. Naruto nodded before leaning forward and placing his hands at the side of Gaara's hips, clutching into the sheets of the bed the shorter tween currently sat on. In that position the two demon boy's faces were separated by barely an inch, their breath berating softly against each other.
"Peace won't come easy. We have to fight for it." Naruto stated bluntly while continuing to stare intensely into Gaara's black eyes. The redhead then began to scooch back on the bed slowly as Naruto followed him on all fours. Now in the middle of the bed, Gaara lowed himself atop the cushion, laying down on his back now while Naruto hovered over him. Slowly Naruto descended, allowing himself to fall restfully atop Gaara's small form in a careful fashion. The blonde tween turned his head and rested his cheek on top of Gaara's chest.
"But no matter what happens, I won't let anything happen to you." Naruto whispered while staring off to the side. Gaara brought his hands down to entwine all ten of his fingers in Naruto's hair, scratching at his partner's scalp.
"But what if something happens to you? I don't think I'd be able to handle it." Gaara explained in a pain-filled voice. Naruto raised his head up to look up at Gaara's face, sliding upwards so his face was hovering barely an inch above Gaara's. He stared unblinkingly down at the other boy.
"You will never lose me. I will become strong to make sure." Naruto explained before kissing Gaara on the forehead. Gaara still had his hands entangled in Naruto's hair, with no intention of letting go. He looked up to Naruto with an adoring gaze.
"Promise me." Gaara stated hopefully.
"I promise, you will never lose me." Naruto said confidently before lowering his head down to nuzzle his face into the side of Gaara's neck. The smaller tween closed his eyes and let a gentle breath escape his throat. Hearing Gaara's sweet voice was always pleasing to Naruto's ears. He wanted to reward his partner and encourage the other boy to keep making those adorable noises. And of course Naruto knew exactly how to make that happen.
The golden haired demon child parted his lips to allow that small tongue of his to snake outward to apply light licks into the side of Gaara's neck. Naruto lavished a few spots of Gaara's smooth, sweet smelling skin in sticky saliva. Having just got out of the shower the redheaded tween was delightfully fresh. The sensation sent a shiver up the smaller boy's spine, causing Gaara to arch his back, forcing their chests to grind together. Just like Naruto wanted, his tiny partner let out another soft breath, this time it was also accompanied by a barely audible, high pitched squeak of pleasure.
"Naru-kun…" Gaara whispered in a shaky voice.
"Yes?" Naruto responded back gently before applying another soft lick. Gaara's eyes scrunched closed, the redhead biting into his bottom lip in a bother.
"...Nothing." Gaara replied, his face flushed a bright red.
That response only encourage Naruto more. Soon the adolescent fox demon began to trail little nips and kisses down Gaara's neck and across his collarbone something he'd seen Shukaku do to Kyuubi. Soft suckling noises began to emanate from Naruto's mouth as he continued, the boy's fiery fox eyes staring at Gaara's face to gauge his reaction.
By now Gaara was in heaven, the boys petite form writhing uncontrollably. The little tween still had his eyes closed, his pouty lips parting in order to constantly release those adorable squeaks and gasps of approval. Naruto couldn't take his eyes off of Gaara's pretty face.
The two were still just children, their feelings confusing and undeveloped. Naruto could never truly put into words the way he felt about his friend. He probably wouldn't be able to for a few years to come. But that didn't stop him from showing his adoration as frequently and as intimately as he knew how.
"Gaara-kun...may I try something?" Naruto questioned while staring down at his partner. Gaara's eyes opened into a half lidded gaze to look dreamily into Naruto's eyes.
"Like what?" Gaara's was barely able to speak those words, his breath heavy, the boy breathing almost in a panting manner from how his body was beginning to heat up.
"Just something I saw Mommy and Daddy doing." Naruto explained. Without hesitation Gaara nodded his head.
"You can do what you want to me...I don't mind." Gaara whispered while letting his eyes trail off in a bashful manner, a subtle smile growing across his lips. Naruto's initial reaction was to display that bright, cheerful grin. Soon however, that grin contorted into a sly smirk, the boy's eyes narrowing into a playful predatory gaze.
"Good." Naruto growled up in a husky way in a manner reminiscent of his father. Without hesitation Naruto closed the distance between their bodies once more.
Naruto began trailing another line of kisses up the side of the redhead's neck, jawline, chin, to finally settle his face directly above Gaara's. They were so close that Naruto's lips lightly grazed the luscious lips of the other much more effeminate tween. They didn't kiss however, the contact of lips being an innocent mistake. But Naruto did use the closeness to nuzzle his nose against the other boys, sharing in that familiar innocent gesture.
Naruto behavior wouldn't stay so innocent as he began to move his face higher until his mouth grazed against the outer flesh of Gaara's furry raccoon ear. Naruto hesitated for just a moment, trying to picture the thing he saw Shukaku doing to Kyuubi. But after only a moment of recollection Naruto opened his mouth wide before chomping down on the tip of Gaara's ear. The bite was firm at first causing Gaara to gasp out loud, but then Naruto began to deliver little nibbles into the flesh followed by a slow rolling of his tongue against Gaara's inner ear. A violent shudder of pleasure crept up the smaller tween's spine from the blissful sensation pulsing through his delicate form.
Gaara's thick lashes began to flutter uncontrollably. There were feelings welling up in Gaara's chest which happened often during these...activities. Feelings the adolescent didn't understand. But Gaara liked the feeling and enjoyed them every time Naruto made him feel that way, even if he also was too young to truly comprehend it.
"I...really like that Naru-kun." Gaara admitted innocently. The confession caused Naruto to release a devious snicker while pulling his mouth away from Gaara's ear and lowering his face to be level with his beloved best friend.
"I noticed." Naruto teased while reaching a hand up to gently sweep a few bits of Gaara hair from his face. Naruto's then slid his fingers down the side of Gaara's head until he was gently cradling Gaara's cheek within his palm.
"We can do that more often if you like." Naruto spoke in a sweet tone down to his best friend. Gaara closed his eyes and begin to nuzzle the side of his face against Naruto's palm, sighing happily in approval of the tender touch. The redhead then fluttered his lashes once more, staring up in infatuation.
"I'd like that."
The two demon boys stared at each other for a long time in pure silence, the only sound they made was their soft breaths which berated against the other's face. Because their little chests were pressed together in that lying position they could even feel each other's heart beats, the thumping pounding rapidly between them. Naruto was shirtless, wearing only his boxers since he just recently got out of the shower. But Gaara still wore that long towel wrapped around his entire petite frame. The thin veil of a towel was the only thing that separated their bodies from pressing against each other directly, not that they hadn't done so plenty of times before.
After a while the smaller tween removed his slender fingers from Naruto's hair only to have Naruto instantly reach forward to clasp at his partner's hands, entwining their fingers, and positioning Gaara's dainty hands at the side of Gaara's head. Since Naruto was on top it appeared as though the larger boy was pinning his smaller partner. And that's exactly what Naruto was doing, a playful gesture they both began to enjoy recently. Gaara didn't mind, he trusted Naruto, and being pinned always made the effeminate tween feel...well maybe he'd understand his feelings one day.
"So what are we going to do today? I don't want to waste our one day off." Naruto spoke in a gentle whisper while attempting to entangle his legs with the boy lying below him.
The smooth skin of their shins rubbed together lightly. Gaara was still wearing that long towel which flowed down his entire form. In order for their legs to be properly entwined like they wanted Naruto began to force the rough material of that semi-damp towel up Gaara's legs a bit, wrinkling the fabric. The smaller boy's body was gradually being revealed as Naruto ran his knee slowly between Gaara's thighs, trying to move that garment out of the way to give the golden haired adolescent full access to his partner's two slender limbs.
Naruto was only satisfied when he'd pushed that towel up to Gaara's skinny upper thigh, just a few inches from revealing the redhead's hidden nethers. But Naruto didn't need to go that far. His goal was accomplished. Now that the towel was bunched up so high Naruto would have full leeway to entangle his legs with the other's boys, the skin of their thighs, ankles, shins, and knees scraping across one another in a deliberately slow and sensual manner. Another habit they'd picked up from watching their demonic adoptive parents.
Gaara's mind was awash in bliss, loving the closeness he shared with his beloved best friend. It took him a long while to respond to the question that Naruto posed.
"Well...I was thinking we could practice our demonic cloning Jutsu." Gaara finally responded in a breathless and dreamy tone. Naruto raised a brow curiously.
"What did you have in mind?"
