-OoOoOoO-
It was a very pissed off and jealous Sasuke who woke up the next morning and got ready for work. But he didn't let Gaara see it. He wouldn't give Neji the satisfaction. Even when he opened his phone to find a text from Neji, sent in the middle of the night, informing him he'd be taking one of his vacation days, Sasuke's resolve didn't falter. Fine, Sasuke thought bitterly. At least I won't have to put up with that smug bastard at work. He unplugged his phone from the charger and put it in his pocket, making his way with Gaara to the front door. They kissed awhile, before parting ways, but Sasuke's heart wasn't in it like it usually was.
The morning meeting at Uchiha Corp. passed in a blur, and Sasuke trudged to his office, fully intending to immerse himself in paperwork so he could just fucking forget about the past 24 hours. As he opened a new file on his desktop computer, there was a small knock on Sasuke's office door.
"Enter," he said, and the door slowly swung open.
"Otouto," Itachi said quietly as he entered Sasuke's office, and Sasuke looked up. "Wanna talk?"
"There's nothing to talk about, Itachi," Sasuke sighed. He'd been wondering how long he could hide this from his brother, but Itachi, always the observant one, seemed to instinctively know when Sasuke was having a bad day.
"I think there is, Sasuke," Itachi pressed, and Sasuke felt his resolve finally start to crumble.
"It's this whole thing with Naruto and Neji," Sasuke finally admitted, burying his face in his hands. "I thought I could handle it, but it's pretty fucking obvious that I can't."
"Because you're in love with Naruto," Itachi guessed.
"Am I really that transparent?" Sasuke wondered out loud.
"To me, yes," Itachi smirked. "But only because I've been in your situation. When Deidara and Sasori started dating in high school, I snapped. I'm sure you remember." Sasuke nodded. "So I did what I had to do. I kicked the living shit out of Sasori, and took Deidara as my own. Just tell him, otouto, and I promise, everything will work out."
"But he's happy, aniki," Sasuke argued, feeling tears welling up in the back of his eyes. "What kind of best friend would I be if I ruined that?"
"Have you ever considered he may be happier with you?" Itachi asked.
"Have you seen him around Neji?" Sasuke countered.
"I have," Itachi said, nodding, "but I've also seen him around you. You're both different around each other, otouto. You compliment one another like Deidara and I do. Even if you don't say anything to him now, I promise you, what's meant to be will always find a way."
"You mean that, aniki?" Sasuke asked, eyes wide with hope.
"Foolish otouto," Itachi chuckled, shaking his head and poking Sasuke's forehead. "Of course I mean in. Chin up. Father's giving you this branch of Uchiha Corp. in less than a week. You'll be successful, and filthy rich. And the youngest CEO in the country. And soon, you'll have your blond. It's only a matter of time. After all, we Uchiha men always get what we want."
Sasuke smiled as Itachi left his office. Maybe he was right. Itachi always had a way of showing Sasuke a glimmer of hope when it seemed there was no hope to be found.
-OoOoOoO-
Naruto woke slowly. Judging by the light coming in the window, he deduced it was early- to mid-afternoon. Neji was still asleep, curled into a ball against his chest. Naruto carefully smoothed Neji's hair out of his face and planted a tender kiss on his forehead. After the night they'd had last night, he wouldn't be surprised if Neji slept all day. Slowly, however, Neji stirred, his eyelids fluttering open at the soft touch. He looked up at Naruto and smiled serenely, snuggling even further into the blond's chest.
"I'm sorry," Naruto whispered. "I didn't mean to wake you."
"No it's okay," Neji yawned. "I'm sticky as fuck. I need a shower."
"Let's go then," Naruto said, jumping out of bed.
Neji sat up slowly, wincing slightly.
"Are you okay?" Naruto asked concernedly.
"Just a little sore," Neji shrugged, standing up. "Nothing I can't handle."
Naruto slowly pulled Neji into a gentle and tender kiss, and they stood in the bedroom awhile, gazing into each other's eyes.
"I love you," Naruto said again, determined to make Neji say it back, or at the very least, believe him.
Neji rolled his eyes.
"It's just too soon," He sighed, and he led Naruto to the bathroom.
They made love again in the shower, slowly and sensually, neither of them able to get enough of the other. Naruto wondered how Neji could deny his feelings. It was obvious he and Neji were quickly falling in love with each other. Was he scared? It made sense. Neji probably still felt threatened by Sasuke, and there was nothing Naruto could say to quell his fears. All he could do is continue to give Neji great sex and hope that soon Neji would admit what Naruto already knew. The concert was coming up in just a few short days' time, and Naruto was determined to get Neji to admit he was in love with him.
-OoOoOoO-
Despite his best efforts not to fall, Neji knew he was already in love with Naruto. He also knew, in the end, he'd get hurt. However, he wasn't willing to tell Naruto all this yet. He wanted to keep Naruto in the dark for as long as possible. After all, there was still the matter of Sasuke to deal with, though Neji's display at work yesterday may very well have taken care of that obstacle. And he knew Sasuke had probably been fuming this morning when he read Neji's text. Maybe he wouldn't have to deal with Sasuke. Naruto had said Sasuke wasn't stupid enough to get in the way of his happiness. Neji just hoped Naruto was right. Deep down, he knew he couldn't compete with Sasuke for Naruto's heart. Naruto was devoted to Sasuke, that much was certain. But maybe, just maybe, Naruto would come to realize that Neji could make him just as happy-and maybe even happier- than Sasuke.
After their shower, Neji helped Naruto change his sheets on his bed, and they climbed back in bed to spend the rest of the day in each other's arms.
"So summer's coming up," Neji began. "My family owns a vacation home in the country, and I still have three more vacation days to use up. You should see if you can get some time off work and we can take a nice, quiet vacation together."
"That sounds great," Naruto smiled, putting his arm around Neji and pulling him close.
Neji put his head on Naruto's bare chest and snuggled closer. He trailed his fingertips up Naruto's sculptured abs, and Naruto bit his bottom lip. Neji's fingers trailed daringly lower, ghosting over Naruto's happy trail, and coming to rest on Naruto's flaccid length. He started stroking Naruto slowly, and Naruto chuckled.
"I don't know how you can even think about another round," he said, shaking his head.
"I'm sorry," Neji blushed. "I just can't get enough of you."
He checked the time on his phone.
"If we get started now," Neji said, "we should be just finishing up when Sasuke gets home, and then I'll go home for you and Sasuke to talk."
Naruto pinned Neji to the bed and hovered over him for a moment, considering this. Finally, he grinned that beautiful grin, and bent down to kiss Neji. They melded together as one, and Neji knew that he had won.
-OoOoOoO-
The first thing Sasuke noticed when he pulled up out front of the apartment complex was that Neji's car was still there. Surely they couldn't have slept all day. Sasuke hesitantly climbed the stairs to his and Naruto's apartment. He took a deep breath when he got to the door and unlocked it, stepping inside carefully. The same sounds from last night assaulted his ears almost instantaneously, and he scowled. Again? Really? This had to be some kind of fucking record.
"I'm home!" he called throughout the apartment, hoping Naruto would hear him over Neji's inhuman noises.
Tonight, Sasuke decided, was a whiskey night. He went to the kitchen and pulled his bottle of Jack Daniel's from the cupboard and filled a glass up half-way. Then he got the two-liter of Coke out of the fridge and filled the remainder of the glass. He took his bottles to the living room and went back to the kitchen to retrieve his glass. He sat down on the couch and pulled his book from his briefcase, opening it where he left off.
Just then, Naruto's bedroom door opened and Neji stepped out, wearing only a pair of low-slung pajama bottoms. Sasuke silently willed himself to disappear into the couch, but of course, Neji spotted him. And his bottle.
"Careful," Neji tsked at him. "Your Jack Daniel's is giving you away."
Sasuke found himself wondering how pissed Naruto would be if he gave his boyfriend a black eye. The idea was becoming more and more appealing by the second. Instead, he downed a big gulp of his drink and narrowed his eyes at Neji.
"I may just have to take you up on that challenge," Sasuke said quietly, taking another drink.
Neji's eyes widened for a fraction of a second before he smirked at Sasuke.
"Don't bother," Neji said, just as quietly as Sasuke. "I've already won."
This time it was Sasuke's eyes that went wide. What the hell did that mean? Just what happened between the two of them today? Naruto walked out of his room at that moment, looking positively breathtaking with his post-sex glow, and wrapped his arms around Neji's waist from behind. He buried his face in Neji's hair, and Neji locked eyes with Sasuke, as if to say, "See what I mean?"
Suddenly Sasuke's drink wasn't strong enough. He tipped back the glass, finishing it off, and mixed another, this time more Jack than Coke. Naruto pulled his face away from Neji's hair and looked at Sasuke.
"You never drink," he noted.
"Rough day at work," Sasuke lied.
"Yeah," Neji sighed, "Sasuke just can't hack it without me there."
The urge to hit Neji came back, harder this time, and Sasuke took a big gulp of his drink, hoping Neji would just go the fuck home soon. He wanted to find out from Naruto what happened today. In private. Neji seemed to understand, and for once, had pity on Sasuke.
"I'd better get home," he said, turning to Naruto. "I have laundry I need to do."
"Will I see you tomorrow?" Naruto asked sadly.
"Of course," Neji smiled. "I'll bring you lunch again."
They made their way back into the bedroom and emerged again a short time later. Neji was wearing one of Naruto's favorite tee-shirts, and Sasuke took yet another long drink from his glass. Naruto and Neji walked to the door together. They stood at the door for a long moment, just staring at each other. Finally, Neji pulled Naruto in for a slow, deep kiss. The kiss broke Sasuke's heart little by little, but he just couldn't look away. He downed the rest of his drink quickly and went to mix himself another.
"I love you," he heard Naruto say, and his heart dropped into his stomach.
He opened the bottle of Jack and put the whole thing to his lips. Whiskey night indeed. He grimaced at the strong taste, but continued to chug. Now he knew what Neji had been talking about. It hadn't even been a week since they'd met, and Naruto was already busting out the l-word? Fuuuuuuuuck.
Neji said something Sasuke couldn't hear, but he could only imagine. He put the bottle to his lips again and chugged. He was feeling deliciously lightheaded already, and his lips were starting to go numb. Maybe he and Naruto could polish off the bottle tonight, like they used to do in college, before shit got complicated. Sasuke sighed, then he heard the front door open and close. So Neji was finally gone.
Naruto flopped down on the couch next to Sasuke and ripped the bottle of whiskey from his hands. He put the bottle to his lips and drank, slow and deep, his Adam's apple bobbing as he drank.
"We're finishing this bottle tonight," Naruto wheezed as he pulled the bottle away from his lips.
"You read my mind," Sasuke smiled, taking the bottle back and drinking.
They passed the bottle back and forth, and soon, both their heads were swimming pleasantly.
"So you love him?" Sasuke slurred as he took another drink.
"Yeah," Naruto sighed, looking down at his lap. "Believe me, I know how fuckin' crazy it sounds. Like, I haven't even known him a week yet. What the fuck is wrong with me, Sasuke?"
"Nothing," Sasuke said, shrugging and looking into the bottle of whiskey in his lap. "If you love him, you love him. You deserve to be happy."
"We're going on vacation this summer," Naruto said, looking over at Sasuke.
"Where?" Sasuke asked, trying to sound interested.
"His family's vacation house in the country," Naruto answered.
"It's probably beautiful," Sasuke told him. "The Hyuuga's are a very influential family. Uchiha Corp. does a lot of business with them."
"Really?" Naruto asked, amazed. "Why does Neji work for Uchiha Corp. if he could be in your position at his own family's company?"
"He's the Hyuuga rebel," Sasuke answered simply. "His uncle, who owns Byakugan Industries, offered him the partner position, but Neji turned it down. He said he didn't want that kind of pressure."
"He won't say it back," Naruto said suddenly, taking the bottle and tipping it back.
Sasuke just stared at him.
"He-He won't? Why not?"
"He says it's too soon," Naruto explained. "But I can see it in his eyes when he looks at me. And I can hear it in his voice when we make love. He loves me, Sasuke. I just know it. Why won't he tell me?"
Sasuke smirked. Because he still feels intimidated by me, he thought smugly.
"I don't know, Naruto," he said instead. "So how's the sex?"
"The best I've ever had," Naruto answered simply, taking another long drink from the bottle. "I never imagined sex could be so... rewarding."
"Well," Sasuke sighed, "when it's with the right person..."
He took the bottle of whiskey from Naruto and chugged. He wasn't drunk enough to listen to this. All he could think about was Naruto and Neji, locked in an intimate embrace, sweating, panting, moaning. Fuck. Why was he imagining that? Hearing it last night and today was bad enough.
He rubbed his head. He and Naruto were drunk now, and it was starting to feel like college again, only slightly more awkward. He wondered if Neji told Naruto about their conversation at work. He doubted it, considering Naruto hadn't brought it up. And besides, Neji wouldn't tell Naruto for fear that he would decide he'd rather have Sasuke. It didn't seem likely, at this point, that Naruto would choose Sasuke. To Sasuke, it seemed like Naruto had finally found The One. He just wished he could be The One.
-OoOoOoO-
Naruto looked at Sasuke. He was clearly miserable. Rough day at work, my ass, Naruto thought. Naruto hazily wondered if he should tell Sasuke that he knew everything. He immediately decided against it. He knew it would lead to a night of drunken sex that may or may not be remembered in the morning. Either way, he didn't want that to happen. Not now. That was cheating, and Naruto wasn't a cheater. He felt bad for Sasuke. He truly did. But in all reality, Sasuke had brought this on himself. If he had just sucked up his pride and confessed his feelings in the beginning, none of this would have had to happen in the first place.
Naruto took the bottle of whiskey from Sasuke and took a long drink. It was almost gone now, and they were pleasantly shitfaced. Naruto gave the bottle back to Sasuke and he finished it off. The two-liter of Coke sat forgotten on the coffee table, perspiring and surely leaving moisture rings on the wood. Usually, it would be Sasuke to notice this, and he would hastily correct it, but he was clearly too far gone to care. His eyes were glazed over and he was swaying slightly in his seat. Naruto chuckled quietly under his breath. It had been so long since he'd seen Sasuke like this. It was kinda... cute. He knew Sasuke would regret it in the morning, like always, but he wouldn't let his hangover get the better of him.
Naruto continued to stare at Sasuke, and Sasuke looked over at him lazily.
"The fuck you lookin' at, dobe?" he slurred, and Naruto smiled.
"You," Naruto slurred back, grinning. Fuck. When did he get this drunk? "Yer fuckin' cute when yer drunk, ya know that?"
Words were coming of their own free will now, and Naruto didn't know how to stop them.
"I'm not cute," Sasuke spat back.
"Sure ya are," Naruto giggled. Giggled? Fuck. He was too drunk for this.
"I'll show you cute," Sasuke growled, flinging himself at Naruto and straddling his hips. He sat there for a moment, looking hazily at Naruto, and Naruto quirked a blond brow at him. No way. Sasuke wouldn't dare. And then he did.
Before Naruto knew what was happening, Sasuke's lips were on his, and his tongue was prying Naruto's lips open. Naruto drunkenly parted his lips, meeting Sasuke's tongue with his own, and a barrage of butterflies erupted it his gut. Sasuke tasted like whiskey and regret, and he wove his fingers through Naruto's blond hair, deepening the sloppy kiss. Sasuke groaned into the kiss, and Naruto's eyes shot open. That sound sobered Naruto up considerably, and he reluctantly pushed Sasuke away.
"Please, Sasuke," he breathed shakily. "This isn't right. We both have boyfriends."
"Is that the only thing holding you back?" Sasuke wanted to know.
Naruto hesitated. Should he be honest? Yes, he decided. Honesty was a virtue.
"Yes and no," Naruto admitted. "Yes, because I've been in love with you for years, and no because I also want us to be sober for our first time."
That seemed to hit home for Sasuke.
"I'm breaking up with Gaara," he said simply.
"Don't do that for me," Naruto pleaded. "Because I'm not breaking up with Neji. If you really want to be with me, you'll wait."
Sasuke glared at Naruto, and Naruto shrugged.
"I've been waiting around for you for years, Sasuke," Naruto confessed. "The least you can do is respect my relationship with Neji until it's over between us."
Sasuke was pissed. He silently disentangled his hands from the blond spikes and stood up from Naruto's lap, walking to his bedroom. He slammed his door behind him and Naruto sighed loudly. So it was all out in the open now. Sasuke knew about Naruto's feelings, and Naruto knew about Sasuke's. He trudged to his own room. It was time for bed. Maybe if he got some sleep, his hangover wouldn't be that bad in the morning.
He settled into bed and laid his head on the pillow. It smelled like Neji, and Naruto grinned, breathing deeply to take in the scent. He knocked on the wall and waited.
For the first time in over 15 years, Naruto's goodnight knock went unanswered. He was losing his best friend. Love certainly does complicate shit.
-OoOoOoO-
Sasuke heard Naruto's knock goodnight, but intentionally ignored it. Even being drunk, Naruto had rejected him and chose Neji. Sasuke was fucking depressed. And still drunk as fuck. He laid down on the bed and closed his eyes. The room spun all around him, and he knew he'd never be able to sleep tonight. On the bright side, however, he now knew how Naruto felt about him. He'd said he'd been waiting for Sasuke for years. Just how long had he been hiding his feelings from Sasuke?
Sasuke closed his eyes again, trying desperately to stop the spins. But to no avail. The room spun around him, and he was starting to feel sick. Shit. He jumped out of bed and quickly ran across the hall to the bathroom. He slammed the door behind him and threw himself on the floor in front of the toilet. Sasuke felt the tears welling up in his eyes as he heaved into the toilet.
The door slowly creaked open to reveal Naruto, in only his thin cotton boxers, smiling sweetly down at his best friend.
"Go away, Naruto," Sasuke managed.
"No, Sasuke," Naruto said as he got out a washcloth and ran it under the tap water. "Despite everything, you're still my best friend, and it's my duty to take care of you when you've had too much to drink."
Sasuke sat with his back against the tub and pulled his knees to his chest. He let Naruto wipe his face down with the wet washcloth. It was warm on his skin, and he looked up at Naruto with tear-filled eyes. Naruto smiled sadly at him and sighed. At last, Sasuke let the tears free. They fell down his cheeks in a silent stream, and he tried in vain to wipe them away before Naruto noticed.
"Oh, Sasuke," Naruto sighed, sitting down on the bathroom floor and pulling Sasuke into him. "Don't cry. Please don't cry."
He rested Sasuke's head on his bare chest and ran his hand through Sasuke's messy hair. It was nice, and Sasuke felt himself getting sleepy. The tears were still falling, and Naruto continued to play with Sasuke's hair.
"Hey, Sasuke?" Naruto said quietly, repositioning Sasuke so he was sitting comfortably on his lap.
"Hmm?" Sasuke hummed, resting his head on Naruto's shoulder and drifting to sleep.
"I'm not going to tell Neji about what happened tonight," Naruto said finally. "But you have to promise it won't happen again."
"Promise," Sasuke murmured sleepily.
Sasuke was asleep within seconds. He didn't hear Naruto flush the toilet, and he didn't notice when Naruto picked him up, carrying him bridal-style back to his bedroom. Naruto carefully deposited Sasuke on his bed, and pulled the covers up around him. Had Sasuke been awake, he would have noticed Naruto smooth his bangs out of his face and kiss him softly on the forehead.
"Good night, Sasuke," Naruto whispered, then he silently slid out of Sasuke's room, closing the door behind him.
-OoOoOoO-
At long last, Friday had finally arrived. After a few awkward days between Naruto and Sasuke, the day Naruto had been waiting for had finally come. It was the day of the concert, and Naruto could barely contain his excitement. He bounced around the apartment getting ready for work in the morning, clearly irritating Sasuke all morning. He was wearing his Dir en Grey tee-shirt, as he felt he should on a day as glorious as today, and despite everything that had happened in the past few days, he was fucking stoked.
Work was agonizingly slow, though he occasionally indulged in some fangirling with Deidara throughout the day. Deidara was beyond jealous, and Naruto couldn't help but feel a little smug. He had positively the best boyfriend in the world who was taking him to the most amazing concert in the world. He was practically jumping with joy, gushing to all his clients. He knew people were probably getting annoyed with him, but for some reason he just couldn't stop himself. Like every day this week, Neji brought Naruto lunch, and they giggled like teenage girls the whole time he was there.
They had a plan. When Neji got off work, he was going to run to his house to change, and then come back to the shop until closing time. Then, they would make their way to the concert hall. It wasn't very far away, which was convenient.
For the first time all day, Naruto was sitting still. He was working on a very intricate tattoo, and Neji would be on his way back to the shop now. He was finishing the last of the shading on the tiger's claw when the shop door opened. Neji stood there, and Naruto was fucking floored. He had never seen Neji in his going-out clothes, and it was easily the sexiest thing Naruto had ever seen.
Neji's long hair was falling loose around his shoulders, and he was wearing a form-fitted tank top and low-slung skinny jeans that hugged him in just the right way. His jeans were tucked into heavy black boots, and Naruto thought he spotted a thin layer of eyeliner around Neji's eyes. He looked drop dead gorgeous, there was positively no denying that fact, and Naruto clearly wasn't the only one who noticed.
"Damn," Deidara said as Neji walked through the door, and Itachi quirked a brow at him. "As a man in a secure relationship with the sexiest man on Earth, can I just say that you look fucking hot, Neji? It's a damn shame you have to wear a shirt and tie all the time."
"No way," Naruto cut in. "I think he looks just as sexy in a tie. Well, maybe not just as sexy, but still pretty damn sexy."
Naruto finished the tattoo he was working on, and his client paid and left. Now, Naruto finally had the chance to really take in Neji's appearance. That was definitely eyeliner that Naruto spotted, and Naruto couldn't stop himself.
"Eyeliner, huh?" he teased, and Neji just smirked at him.
"Noticed that, did you?" he teased back.
"Deidara's right, you know," Naruto told him. " You do look fucking hot."
"I do what I can," Neji shrugged. "Nice tee-shirt, by the way."
"Yeah," Naruto said, rubbing the back of his head. "I don't have any sexy going-out clothes."
"No," Neji said, "I like you in a tee-shirt and jeans. Though I like you best in nothing."
Naruto grinned and felt his face start to heat up. Neji always had that effect on him. All week, Naruto had done everything in his power to not look guilty after that night he and Sasuke finished off the enormous bottle of Jack Daniel's, and Neji seemed to be a tiny bit suspicious, but neither of them said anything. He didn't like hiding it from Neji, but he knew Neji would end up losing his job if Naruto told him that Sasuke had kissed him. He felt he knew Neji well enough to know that Neji would barge in to Sasuke's office, demand an explanation, and probably punch Sasuke in the face. Sasuke, in turn, would be forced to fire Neji, and Naruto didn't want that. So he kept his word to his best friend, and didn't tell Neji anything. It was killing him.
Naruto excitedly helped close up the shop, counting the money in the cash register and shutting down the computer system. Yahiko locked up the doors behind them as Konan shut off all the lights, and finally, it was time for the concert. Naruto bounced in his seat as Neji drove them the short distance to the concert hall. The parking lot was littered with people. After driving around for what seemed like an eternity, they finally found a place to park. They walked into the concert hall and quickly found their seats; which weren't seats, really. The first few rows of seats in the concert hall had been removed for people to stand close to the stage. The found a place to stand amongst the crowd, and anxiously waited for the concert to start.
At long last, the lights in the concert hall dimmed, and electronic music started playing from the stage. Green lazers were turned on, illuminating everything in a strange glow. The band walked on stage one by one, picking up their instruments and setting up. Jimmy Urine, the lead singer of MSI, walked on stage last, wearing an outfit remarkably similar to Neji's, the only differences being the feathered black angel wings and the sparkly rhinestone tiara atop his messy hair. He wasted no time jumping energetically around the stage, singing songs that Naruto knew all the words to.
The light show was amazing, as expected, and the band put on a phenominal show. The crowd was going absolutely wild, jumping and dancing, and Naruto felt at home in this enormous crowd of people. Neji seemed to be enjoying himself as well, and when MSI finished their set, he joined in the rest of the crowd's applause.
The wait for Dir en Grey was excruciating. Naruto and Neji kept exchanging nervous glances at each other, only to smile when they locked eyes. Neji kissed Naruto, and Naruto's head swam. At long last, the crowd erupted in applause, and Naruto looked up to see Dir en Grey taking the stage. His excitement reached a whole new level when the music started, and the band demanded a mosh pit be formed. The fans wouldn't refuse, and in no time, people were pushing and shoving each other to the gutteral growls and screams on stage.
Neji had already told Naruto that he wouldn't be taking part in any mosh pits, but Naruto just had to. He was letting loose in the mosh pit, letting out his violent side to the sound of the music, when he heard Neji's voice a few feet away. He sounded pissed about something.
"Get the fuck off me," Neji snapped, and Naruto looked up to see some random guy running his fingers through Neji's hair and cupping his crotch. Naruto saw red for a moment and closed the distance between himself and Neji in an instant. He spun the daring guy around by the shoulder and punched him hard in the jaw. There was a sickening snapping sound as his fist connected with the guy's face, and he fell to the grimy floor, unconscious.
"That's mine, you son of a bitch," Naruto spat, kicking the knocked-out guy in the ribs.
"Damn, Naruto," Neji said, his voice barely audible above the music. "That was hot."
Something animalistic and raw snapped inside Naruto just then, and he pulled Neji in for a bruising kiss. Neji melted against his touch, and Naruto picked him up by the backs of his thighs. Neji wrapped his legs around Naruto's waist as Naruto pushed their way through the dense crowd, never once breaking off the kiss. Finally, Neji's back found Naruto's destination: the nearest wall. Naruto hurried to unbutton Neji's tight pants, and pulled the back down, exposing his ass to anyone who might be watching.
"Fuck," Naruto growled. "I don't have lube."
"I do," Neji panted. "Back right pocket."
Naruto grinned evilly and reached into Neji's pocket, pulling out a small packet of lube. He tore it open with his teeth and smeared some on his fingers. He pushed all three fingers into Neji at once, and Neji hissed at the intrusion. Naruto prepared Neji quickly, and slid his fingers out. Neji unzipped Naruto's jeans and they pushed them down together. Naruto hurriedly coated his erection and looked around for a second.
"People are watching, Neji," Naruto purred in his ear.
"I don't care," Neji breathed. "Let them watch. Just fuck me."
"As you wish," Naruto grinned, and shoved himself inside Neji in one quick thrust. Neji cried out, and more people started to look. Who knew Neji would be an exhibitionist? He was just full of surprises.
Neji tugged at Naruto's hair as he thrust deep inside Neji. Neji was mush against the wall, a mess of wanton moans and needy, throaty growls. Naruto grabbed his hips and pulled him down into the thrust, and Neji's cries were slowly becoming louder than the music.
"I fucking love you, Naruto," Neji declared between moans, his back arching off the wall.
"It's about fucking time," Naruto snarled, and he kissed Neji hard on the lips. "I fucking love you, too."
Naruto pulled Neji's rock-hard erection from his jeans, neither of them caring at all that they had acquired a small audience. Naruto pumped Neji in time with his thrusts, and Neji's breathing was getting shaky.
"N-Naruto, I'm-Aah!" Neji released, hot and sticky, over Naruto's hand, and Naruto's release followed shortly after.
Naruto slipped himself out of Neji, and they quickly righted their clothes. Neji unceremoniously dragged Naruto towards the exit.
"But, the concert," Naruto prostested.
"I don't care about the concert," Neji said. "I want you in my bed."
Neji's word was clearly law, and they made their way to the car quickly, hand in hand. Neji sped through the city, and even through his own neighborhood, seemingly desperate to get Naruto to his house. They pulled in the driveway, and Neji practically pulled Naruto from the car and threw him inside the house. They tore each other's clothes from their bodies as they made their way to the bedroom, kissing the entire way.
"Can I top?" Neji asked breathlessly as they got to the bedroom. Fuck. Naruto had been hoping this topic of conversation never came up. He had promised himself a long time ago that if he ever, ever bottomed, it would be with Sasuke. And only Sasuke. Quite frankly, he was scared as hell. And his silence seemed to say it all. Neji quickly averted his eyes. "I see," he said quietly.
Fuck no. Naruto wasn't going to let this ruin tonight. He grabbed Neji's chin and forced him to look him in the eyes.
"Neji, I love you," he said, "I'm just... not ready for that yet. Ask again later, and my answer may be different. I absolutely love the sex we already have. It gives me a sense of satisfaction I've never felt before, and I just can't fucking get enough of you. I love you so much, Neji. And to be honest, that scares the hell out of me because this is not the way I thought my life was going to go, but I'm glad I have you. Let me make love to you. All night. Until I have to go to work."
Neji smiled. Success.
"Okay, Naruto," he said quietly, then he narrowed his eyes dangerously at Naruto. "Give it to me good," he purred.
And Naruto did. All night, on every surface in Neji's house, they had sex. They kept at it until the sun started to come up, and they finally collapsed, exhausted, on Neji's huge bed. They both set alarms on their phones (they had left Naruto's car sitting outside of Akatsuki, so Neji would have to drive him to work in the morning), and curled up next to each other, trying to get a few hours' worth of sleep before they had to leave.
A/N: Okay, so I have to apologize for a few things: First and foremost, I know the concert wasn't super descriptive, and I am sorry. But it was brought to my attention that it could possibly be copyright infringement to go into a ton of detail about concerts. I don't know about any truth behind that, so if you know for sure, just leave it in a review. ^_^
Second, I know the end of this chapter was mildly abrupt, and I apologize for that, too. It was getting really really long, and I was honestly getting kinda sick and tired of the length of this chapter.
Finally, I know I haven't updated in awhile. But in my defense, I've been busy finishing up Death Note (I know, I know, I should have watched it a loooong time ago, but I just got around to it. And I fucking LOVED IT. If you haven't watched Death Note, do it.), and I was catching up on The Big Bang Theory (easily my favorite sitcom now. The theme song is catchy as hell and I cannot get it out of my head to save my life.)
Reviews keep me writing, loves.
