I Write Sins Not Tragedies

Chapter 2

Naruto fiddled with his keys for a bit before actually managing to unlock the apartment entrance. It was hard to maintain a calm exterior when there was an unnaturally sexy guy standing behind him with his arms wrapped around the blonde's waist.

It was dark when they walked in, Naruto tried to mumble something regarding being hungry. But of course that suggestion amounted to nothing in the moments to come. Sasuke was on him faster than he could breathe. The blonde wanted to drink in his scent and devour every second they were touching. It was a bittersweet desire.

"Sasuke," Naruto whispered in a breathless voice. It was just a replay of earlier, he was falling prey to this predator, handing him the control on a silver platter. And boy was Sasuke eating it up.

"Hmm?" The raven murmured, letting his lips path themselves down Naruto's perfectly toned body.

"Maybe we should-mhmm," the blonde couldn't even finish his statement. Sasuke's hands were already in his boxers. Naruto didn't even realize he was helping with the removal of his pants until they were thrown against the wall, Naruto's moans filling the room.

When Naruto's eyes fluttered open to the familiar view of a very naked Sasuke draped over his body, he couldn't help but let out a defeated sigh. It was only a few months prior that he declared this kind of thing was not going to happen. As carefully as he could manage, he peeled the man off and sat on the edge of the bed, face buried in his palms.

It was just sex right? There couldn't possibly be anything dreadfully wrong with this, it was purely physical. At least, that was the excuse Sasuke would use later on. Getting up from the bedside, the confused blonde threw on some boxers and made his way into the kitchen, flicking on a light as he went. His fingers danced near the phone for a while, contemplating who he would call. It was a terrible realization to remember that Hinata was with her husband and therefore unable to give Naruto that 'I told you so" lecture he really wouldn't mind right about now.

Reaching into the fridge for a bottle of water, his free hand ended up going for the phone. Though the last thing he would do is bother Hinata. No, there was another person he could pester with this situation.

"Who the fuck is calling me at this hour?" A groggy voice answered, the pissy nature causing Naruto to smirk.

"Deidara, its Naruto." The younger blonde heard some shuffling around on the other line followed by an exasperated sigh.

"Oh, it's you. Look, I know I said you could call me whenever, but hun it's currently four in the morning. I do enjoy my sleep believe it or not," the artist joked.

"I didn't know what time he'd leave tomorrow so I wanted to call you now," Naruto knew his cousin would have a blunt opinion on the circumstance. He'd rather have it given straight to him rather than anyone beating around the bush. Sugarcoating always led to hell.

"He who?"

"Eh...Sasuke." There was complete silence for a while. Nothing but the slight buzz of the phone's static and faint breathing. "Dei...?"

"Naruto darling, tell me why the fuck you would let that bastard back into your life? HE'S IN YOUR FUCKING BED RIGHT NOW ISN'T HE?" When Deidara's voice raised, Naruto got a little scared. He knew the man would have gotten upset, but he didn't exactly expect such infuriation.

"...yeah." The word was just loud enough to reach Deidara as a whisper across the landline.

"Yeah? Yeah. Yeah is all you can say Naruto?" he paused to take a deep breath. "Look love, I didn't mean to yell at you or anything but understand this. After all he did to you I have half the mind to come over there right now and blow his dick off."

Naruto couldn't help but chuckle at the remark, not surprised in the least at his crudeness. He was right though, Sasuke deserved that kind of hostility from everyone. And more than anyone, Naruto should hate him. Yet, they've fucking twice in less than twenty-four hours. Something was clearly wrong here.

"What do I do Deidara? I can't think straight when he looks at me with those eyes, they're smoldering and enticing. It's fucking hypnotic." Naruto cursed too much when he was talking to this guy, it was almost comical.

"Alright sweetheart, here's what you do. Grab one of the knives from your kitchen and slice that dick right off. That way, no more fucking! Problem solved."

"Deidara, I'm going to kill you if I don't get some real advice here."

"Okay okay, calm your tits princess. Let's see...talk to him. You're going to have to swallow the need to fuck him for a few moments so you can sort out what exactly is going on. You're strong, you can do it sweetheart." Naruto knew he was right, but he also knew it was going to be hard to voice himself. He wasn't too great with words.

"Thanks Dei," was all he could manage to say.

"No problem love. Just remember one thing, you deserve better than some asshole that screwed you over. Unless he can erase the past, I'd tread carefully." The warning would be heeded, Naruto shuddered at his memories.

"I'll talk to you later." Deidara said goodnight, the sound of a grumbling voice reaching the phone just before he hung up. Naruto laughed, figuring it was probably Sasori again.

"Who was that?" A tired voice filled the room, the suddenness causing Naruto to jump in shock.

"Sasuke, geez. You scared the shit out of me." Sasuke laughed at the surprised blonde, finding his expression somewhat amusing. In the light Naruto realized that he had put on Sasuke's boxers, which is why Sasuke was wearing his.

"My dearest apologies. But anyway, who were you talking to?" The raven walked over and reached for the bottle of water that had been in besides the blonde, waiting patiently for an answer.

"It was...just a friend."

"Just a friend? At four in the morning? Why are you awake anyways?"

"What's with the twenty questions, I don't exactly appreciate the interrogation at this ungodly hour in the morning." There was an edge to Naruto's voice, Deidara's warnings echoing in the back of his mind.

"Calm yourself honey. Why so tense?" Sasuke leaned over to give him a kiss, but to his utter surprise he was rejected. The blonde turned away and began to walk back to the bedroom, his heart beating uncontrollably.

They sat on the bed for a while, silence sitting with them like an unwanted guest. Neither wanted to start the conversation. One for the fear of not knowing what to say. The other out of worry he'd entice another strained response.

"Why are you here?" This time the question was from Naruto, his cerulean eyes penetrating the walls of ice built around Sasuke's black pupils. He wanted an answer, a real answer. What the raven said though, almost shocked him.

"Isn't it obvious Naruto? I miss you." Sasuke looked genuine, his gaze interlocking with Naruto's. The moment seemed surreal, like something Naruto had only dreamt of hearing in all of his life. He didn't know if he could believe it, after all that happened.

"...how am I supposed to believe that, Sasuke? Hmm? You left me. It was YOUR decision. Not mine." He could hear the pain emanating our of his tone.

"Naruto, I really did love you." Sasuke's fingers brushed Naruto's, but the blonde pulled away. His eyes shifted as he stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Grasping the doorknob he took a deep breath.

"Then you shouldn't have left me at the altar that day Sasuke." The bathroom door slammed shut, the sound echoing through the entire apartment.
