Sasuke asks the hokage to give Naruto checkup the next day, after the emotional roller coaster the night before.

The omega is fine, so is the child, just with a little bit more rest, Naruto will be right as rain. Tsunade packs her bag and asks Sasuke for a word in her office after he gets settled in Naruto's apartment.

"Sorry I was ready to hit you with a bat," Naruto says at their breakfast of rice, miso soup, eggs, and fish that he and Sasuke prepared that morning. "I don't think it would've stopped you, but at least, if you were an impostor, the imposter and I would know I died with a fight,"

That's when Sasuke realizes Naruto had no idea it was really him. "You couldn't tell it was me,"

Both their scent blocker patches are still on their necks. It's as if Naruto isn't ready yet to accept Sasuke as a whole, and Sasuke is too polite to rip it off and bite Naruto's neck without Naruto asking him to.

"Yeah," Naruto pokes at his soft-boiled egg. "S'why I had the bat,"

"Why?"

"I kept bleeding a lot, early on, when there's physical exertion or expenditure of chakra. So she blocked it. I got better since then,"

"What's… even with Kurama? Why were you bleeding?"

"Kurama's asleep… and it's not just about chakra anymore, I guess? Baa-chan said I exerted too much. Worked too much. Used blockers too much. And that you weren't there to help with the nesting, scenting—"

The chair scratches the floor and Sasuke grabs Naruto's hand to pull him to bed. He peels the blockers off their necks, and Naruto immediately falls pliant against him. They each nose each other's necks as they lay there, Naruto pulling Sasuke as close as his belly would let him.

They end up spooning, scents mixing, calming each other, Naruto's back pressed against Sasuke's chest, and Sasuke's arm around his waist and hand rubbing circles on Naruto's belly, feeling movement occasionally. Sasuke's scent, something Naruto's craved just days after they separated half a year ago unaware of the quickening in his belly, smells like grass, wood, and warm coal. Which sort of makes sense, since Sasuke wields fire. He's warm, inviting, and Naruto would like to hold him forever.

"Tell me about the baby," says Sasuke, pressing his nose to where Naruto's scent is most concentrated. To him, Naruto smells like candied oranges, fresh flowers, morning dew, spring water, and milk. Sweeter than he last had him.

The morning dew is what does it for Sasuke. Their fight ended as the sun rose. The morning is a new day, holding new opportunities. The new day holds hope for tomorrow, and Sasuke's tomorrows have Naruto and their baby.

"I'm 26 weeks and I don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet," Naruto answers, "But I think it's a boy—haven't asked Baa-chan and I'm not sure I want to ask. They're getting to be very active. I think they're going to be annoying as you, teme,"

Sasuke scoffs. "Maybe as loud as you, dobe,"

"Hey!"

The Uchiha presses a kiss to Naruto's shoulder, thinking about how desperately Naruto had begged him to be real, to stay. "I'm sorry I didn't come home sooner,"

"I'm glad you're back now," he brings Sasuke's hand to his lips. "It's been really lonely,"

Lonely? "You don't meet with Sakura? Gaara? Nara?"

"Everybody's so busy right now, Sasuke," Naruto sighs. "Sakura's under Baa-chan doing the medical training and she doesn't even have time to herself after 36 straight hour shifts at the hospital. All she does right now is heal people and sleep. I don't want to be an additional problem to her.

"Gaara's…he has his own village to take care of. No need to be clingy and bother him.

"Shikamaru's at the Hokage's office too, as an assistant, keeps the office going and makes sure everybody's schedules are good and that the shinobi coming back in after a mission are taken care of. It's a lot. I don't see Shikamaru outside of work. He sees a lot of Kakashi-sensei, though. Sakura's barely awake when she gets off at the hospital. I haven't seen anybody in a while. I don't really blame them. They've got better things to do,"

Sasuke vows to himself, nothing else will be better to do than Naruto and their child.

At mid-morning the next day, and Sasuke lets Naruto know the Hokage has summoned him while Naruto makes the promised yakisoba and dumplings. Naruto almost doesn't want to get him go as he hands over the bento, which had been forgotten yesterday due to the goings on, while Sasuke puts on a fresh scent blocker.

"Itterasshai," Naruto says as Sasuke heads for the door. Come back soon.

Sasuke freezes by the door, turns around, and gives Naruto a kiss to his forehead. "Ittekuru," I'm going now.

Sasuke stands in front of the Hokage's table as she finishes the bento from Naruto. She's halfway through the dumplings when she acknowledges the other alpha's presence.

"I'm not convinced," she sets the chopsticks down.

"Of what?"

"Naruto is emotional and hormonal and will probably believe anything you say, because it's you, Uchiha. Because he loves you more than anything and I can't for the life of me understand why after everything you put him through. So I'm not convinced that you're here to settle down,"

Sasuke doesn't answer. Because he doesn't know why either.

"Or let me take a guess: you wanted to see how he was doing, months after you laid with him. But then you saw that the omega who's been chasing you all along, may not be chasing after you anymore, because he's got his own piece of you with him now. Because the primitive alpha in you, sees the omega you want heavy with your child, and your instincts are telling you to bite and plant roots, is that it?"

The Uchicha clenches his jaw with a light nod. That's half the truth. "He did say he let me go,"

"He did," confirms Tsunade. "He did, he was ready to continue without you, then you show up with your…" she hisses, "…promises,"

"I intend to keep them," Sasuke insists.

"Do you?" Tsunade knows she's being the overprotective grandmother. She has the right to. She's the one who saw to Naruto when he begged her to save Sasuke's baby the last time a river bled from between his legs. "Do you really? Because I hope the trauma response Naruto had from you has cracked your head wide open in an epiphany,"

"I do," he says again, because if he must spend the rest of his life proving it, he will, but not for anybody else other than Naruto.

"A hair out of line, Uchiha," she threatens him.

It will be a magnificent fight, Sasuke thinks, if he fought back. But he won't. "Put me in my place when you see fit,"

"You bet I will. I didn't sign that acquittal for you, Uchiha. I signed it for my grandson," she humphs. "Well then, if you wish for your return to have little to no consequences, you will have conditions to abide to, Uchicha, not just for Naruto, but Konoha," she sets the chopsticks down. "As a high level shinobi, your return and permanent residence in Konoha requires you to receive an unmarred hitai-ate and if you accept it this implies your renewed allegiance. You are not required to wear it. Kami knows you're not going to take it seriously anyway but you need to take it," Tsunade places a headband on her desk for him to take. "Do you accept?"

"Hai," Sasuke takes the headband. Maybe not allegiance to the village, but Naruto. "May I keep the headband I received as a genin?"

"Why? That symbolizes your status as a missing-nin,"

"It…" Sasuke runs a finger over the strike that mars the headband. "Naruto held onto it for me. It carries immense sentimental value,"

Tsunade hums thoughtfully. "Fine. But keep it out of sight. Then you're also required to perform the bare minimum to rank up. Given your skills, you could kill anyone with a look. All shinobi are on reserve for missions,"

"Hai," Sasuke will never take any missions much too long away from Naruto unless it is Naruto as Hokage who gives it to him.

"For Naruto, first, I want you to take him out of that wretched apartment. I swear he'll trip himself and bust a brow or worse. The Uchiha compound was reclaimed, and your inheritance was taxed 10% to help rebuild,"

"I see," to be honest, Sasuke is surprised he even had an inheritance left, that they hadn't drained him already. He hadn't thought about it since he was a kid.

"Naruto kept your accounts private after that. He challenged the council for it. He's been your keeper even before you knew each other biblically, Uchiha. And I hope you can live up to that now that you've," she waves her hand around vaguely. "Returned to him. I need him far from the Hokage's office. There's a large cut of land near the edge of the village to the southwest, with a decent house. Far enough that the population there is sporadic. It will provide you with the privacy that you need,"

"You want me to build out there," he says. It's not a question.

"Build whatever you want out there. The only thing in between you and rebuilding are the licenses to build. I'm not saying you should build it now. The important thing is that Naruto gets out that apartment and you have a proper space to raise a child,"

Sasuke thinks these are doable. The problem is Naruto. They're going to end up bickering nonstop if Naruto insists he doesn't need much help, even though he does. Sasuke will have to break it to Naruto gently as soon as he gets home.

Huh. He's never said or thought of that before. A home.

"Second, no bite until Naruto asks you. The last thing I want is you, after all your obligations, leaving Naruto like a common whore and travelling to God knows where. He has enough abandonment issues, especially from you," Tsunade glares at him for good measure. "I will be turning over the position of Hokage to Kakashi,"

Sasuke can't say he almost expected their former sensei to be the next Hokage.

"And you will be joining Shizune and Shikamaru as an assistant. In preparation for this, when he accedes office, you will replace Naruto part-time as a trainee. I need you in the mornings with Kakashi, Naruto should be out of the apartment by then,"

"When will Kakashi accede?"

"A year from now, maybe. If I'm impatient, in the next six months, maybe even less. Kakashi's already been informed and has been undergoing preparations for a while now, and some of it, you will help gather and send to his residence," she pauses, "And you will not tell Naruto about Kakashi's accession date yet. He'll freak and insist on coming back to the office to prepare. Naruto is supposed to be on bed rest. The most taxing thing that brat is allowed to do is eat and talk,"

Sasuke nods. "Hai,"

"And should Naruto accept the position of Hokage in the future, you will be heading his security and special missions. Third," the hokage takes a swig of her tea. "Naruto has been struggling all his life, and so are you. Naruto has been taking care of you, Uchiha, and I expect you to do the same for him. Spoil him in everything, please. He deserves it. He has done nothing but good to the village, save a few pranks, and Konoha should do more to repay him, yet he's met with disgust and derision when he came home pregnant,"

"I… have already sworn it to myself,"

Tsunade sighs and looks out the window behind her. "What an ungrateful village,"

"Indeed," Sasuke agrees. If he could choose, if he could convince Naruto to move out of here, settle somewhere else, he would. Why would they choose to stay here, when this village has done nothing but treat them both, Naruto more than himself, like filth.

"You can go,"

Sasuke gives a shallow nod in respect for Naruto's grandmother, not as the Hokage, before leaving.

He finds the piece of land just as the Godaime says where it is.

The edge of the land facing the village is marked. He could work with this. He'll need to gate off this land and ward it. The house he sees, looks like it's good for about three people for the meantime. He can imagine a bigger house in traditional architecture with a more modern interior, and a courtyard, a garden, where children can play.

When he came back to see Naruto, he expected maybe to bare his heart and admit to wanting to stay with him. He thought he'd share his apartment and be disgustingly domestic and sweet, but also bicker and argue like always, as a new couple. He expected Naruto to drag him out to dinners with friends, announcing his return. He expected Naruto to bother the Godaime about his status and let her reinstate him as a shinobi. He sort of got it, but not at Naruto's stubbornness and peskiness.

Instead, he's here looking at land to purchase, and looking forward to a family life with Naruto. Despite being caught off guard and surprised, he's excited to be a father. He's excited that the Uchiha blood is flowing in the veins of the next generation.

"Excuse me," he says to a passing civilian, "Do you know whom I can talk to about this land?"

Sasuke takes his time going back to Naruto's apartment, taking in the new sights and sounds of Konoha, and the changes that have happened since his departure. He looks around, sees a small shop selling bread displayed right outside their door, with jars of marmalade. He checks the meagre contents of his wallet, then decides to get a loaf and a jar. He deposits the amount in the money jar provided, takes a paper bag near the money jar, and packs himself his groceries.

When he gets back to the apartment, Naruto is so deep into his nap that the rattling keys and the creaky door isn't enough to wake him. Sasuke shakes his head in fondness, notes that the new apartment should have better wards, and then sets the paper bag down on the table, where there's food prepped. Some vegetables, uncooked noodles, and a pack of stock. He's glad Naruto is trying to eat healthier.

He joins Naruto on the bed, sitting at the edge and careful not to wake him up, and the alpha peels the scent blocker off his neck. Naruto is on his side, with a pillow between his legs and the oscillating fan on the floor blowing soft wind directly at him. His feet are slightly swollen, and Sasuke thinks of coming by the library and read up on how he can relieve any pains or discomfort Naruto is experiencing and check out the books.

It's kind of cute how plump Naruto had become. He wouldn't say that out loud though. He places his hand on a softened hip, then lifts the oversized shirt and peeks at the delicate protruding belly. He's amazed at Naruto's size, and he's to get bigger. The seal on his belly is still dark and inky black despite the stretch. Sasuke almost gasps when a ripple runs through the skin, maybe a foot or a hand. He follows the movement with a finger until it stops.

The awe and happiness Sasuke feels is overwhelming, swelling from his chest. He is no longer the last Uchiha. The next generation is almost born, safe in his mate and growing fast and Sasuke finds himself eager to meet them. Naruto is healthy, safe, and smelling content and happy, and Sasuke can't help but feel that way, too.

He's never really thought of fatherhood, of bringing forth and rearing children, for he's always been traveling and living a nomadic, dangerous life of a shinobi with no allegiance to a village or kage. He's always thought he'd be the last, back then, never thinking far enough that maybe one day he'll come back to Naruto and settle with him. Never thought that these trysts he has with Naruto under the raining sunshine between leaves, under the light of the moon near bodies of water, will result in a child he will want to rear despite not wanting change, or being ready, or choosing to become a father. Yet here Naruto is giving him the makings of a clan about to spark anew.

Sasuke thinks he might not deserve all the good things that happened in the last two days. Reunited with his omega and love of his life, a child on the way, a stable job, land he can buy, opportunity to expand, and surprisingly, financial stability. He's surprised he won't be utilized as an ANBU. He guesses that Tsunade just wants to put Naruto first, because maybe, it's the only thing she can do to help stabilize Naruto, and by extension, Sasuke.

Naruto wakes up from the touches and the child's movement. He blinks blearily and smiles when he sees Sasuke, who leans in to kiss him. "Baa-chan let you go in one piece, huh?"

"A few threats here and there," Sasuke gives him another peck on the cheek.

"Oh, she does that to everyone," he yawns.

"Go back to sleep," Sasuke pulls the shirt down and pats Naruto's hip.

Naruto mumbles something and slips back to sleep and his breathing evens out.

In two weeks, when Naruto is out of this apartment, he starts as an assistant. Huh. He never imagined landing an office job as a child, even as a missing-nin travelling the world doing odd jobs for money. But it's in Kakashi's discretion if his responsibilities change and he's assigned to ANBU, which he might decline unless it's his specific skills that will contribute to the success of a mission.

He looks around Naruto's apartment and Tsunade is right. This place isn't a space they can raise a child in. He looks around for paper and pencil, which he finds in a cabinet that contains some clutter and paperwork from the office and sits at the table to begin listing things that need improvement or changes he would need to apply to their new home.

The crib and the dresser look like one of the lower end ones. Sasuke doesn't want to hurt Naruto by replacing it with something else since Naruto worked hard to afford them, but he does list down more things for the child and some more for Naruto the things he might need as a new mother.

But then he thinks, maybe Naruto needs more physical and emotional support and comfort right now. He and his absence after all are the reasons why Naruto was having a difficult pregnancy. He might have to ask Tsunade to delay his onboarding date to spend more time and make up for lost time with Naruto and provide his mate with everything he needs.

Which brings Sasuke to the next problem: moving. He'll have to speak with Naruto after dinner, bribe him with some Ichiraku to soften him up a bit before breaking it to him that they need to leave the apartment for a better space. Maybe just for now, a bigger apartment with better facilities and amenities, until he can fast-track the acquisition of the land the Godaime recommended him.

In his list he includes asking Naruto for access to his accounts, converting those to joint accounts, and another for the baby, mom things, dad things, more baby things, looking for an architect for house plans, contractors for the building, and safety officers, among other things. Oh, maybe a landscaper, too.

A scent distracts him from his writing though. He snaps his head up to look at Naruto, who's still sleeping, but small moans are coming from him. Sasuke knows it's not a bad dream, because he can small the slick pouring out of him.

A false heat, maybe. Since he's here with this scent all over the place, all over Naruto's nest. He's an alpha reunited with his omega, it's only right that Naruto's instincts will try to make him stay by inducing a false heat.

He gets up, leaving the list on the table, and wakes the feverish omega.

"Naruto," he says, brushing his hand over Naruto's hip.

The omega groans out of sleep. "…suke…" he pants. "It's so hot…" he peels himself off the pillow and he sees Sasuke's blurry figure looming over him. "…s'going'on?"

"False heat," answers Sasuke, "What do you need me to do?"

Naruto feels the heat creep into every crevice of his body. His cunt pulsates, making him gasp as he clenches on air. "Is it safe?" he pants, sweat beading on his forehead, as he sits up to remove the soaking boxers off him and throw them to the floor. "For me to be knotted?"

Sasuke's nose is in Naruto's neck, poking at the swollen gland, begging to be bitten. His teeth graze the skin. He positions himself behind Naruto, his mate nestled between the V of his legs. "I don't know," his control is fine, being tested, but fine. "Tell me what to do,"

"I don't know, teme," Naruto whines, the rude nickname said without heat or bite. "What if…what if we hurt the baby…?" he turns to Sasuke to kiss him. "I don't want to hurt them…"

Usually, mates who don't want to be tied yet rely on scent all throughout a heat or a rut, and sometimes, it's enough, but that changes when mates have already been tied. They will look for release and crave their mate's body.

"Then we won't," Sasuke breathes, kissing Naruto's cheek, jaw, neck, and shoulders.

Sasuke doesn't know if he'll ever be able to admit it to Naruto, but he's always thought about children. Not with anyone else, though, just Naruto. If he had never slept with Naruto that night half a year ago, if he had chosen never to lay with anybody else and continue his life, it would've been alright. He had long accepted that the Uchiha bloodline will die with him. But now, having had Naruto, having filled him when they laid together and showing him the primitive, instinctual love he knew how to give, and seeing him now full of his child, Uchiha blood running through the veins of his best friend, omega, soulmate, and love of his life, he can't help but see Naruto like the divine being he is: giving him life, a purpose, and a future. Deserving of his worship, and it would be Sasuke's pleasure to love him back, take care of him right back, the way he never gave up on him, and accepted him as he is always.

"Sasuke… Sasuke, please," Naruto begs, but he doesn't know for what. It's just so hot.

The alpha keeps his mouth on Naruto's neck, nosing his gland, while his hand starts to roam the omega's body. His hand first smooths down Naruto's side, then slides up the oversized shirt, his palm brushing over the warm, stretched skin of Naruto's belly, cradling it in his palm gently, smoothing down the softened, thick thighs, before moving his hand up to Naruto's chest where it lands on a slightly swollen breast, soft and enlarged, waiting to be filled with milk for their child. "Please what?"

Naruto gasps as Sasuke massages the soft mound, slick pooling underneath him. It's embarrassing, what he wants to say, but it pours out of him in a dazed need. "Ore no manko, Sasuke! Tanomu! Tanomundayo!" My pussy, please, Sasuke, please!

Sasuke obeys and presses the pads of his fingers along the width of Naruto's cunt, and even more slick drenches Sasuke's fingers.

"Nnghh!" Naruto throws his head back and rests it on Sasuke's shoulder, hands gripping the sheets. It's when Sasuke presses meanly on his oversensitive clit that his legs snap closed. "…suke!"

"Can you cum just like this?" Naruto can feel Sasuke's breath in his ear. His alpha is mean with him.

"Yes!" Naruto whimpers, almost begging for the release. He feels the fast climb to an orgasm as Sasuke rubs and rubs and rubs on his heat engorged clit, making his entire cunt pulse with sear with fire. "Please… oh, oh my God… Sasuke…" he pants, "I-iku! Ore ga iku!" Cumming! I'm cumming! The orgasm hits him hard and brutal, coming in waves that won't stop. He goes rigid, thighs shaking, toes curling into the blanket, hands gripping the sheets, and Sasuke won't get his clit go.

When Sasuke pulls his fingers off, Naruto is a shaking mess, boneless, weight all on Sasuke and panting like he ran a day's straight. "Are you alright?" Sasuke asks, lifting his hand up to the curve of Naruto's belly.

Naruto nods blankly. "More… please…" and suddenly Naruto feels like he's cooled down and burning at the same time. His cunt is still throbbing, and then Sasuke's fingers are inside him. These fingers, which had just brushed lovingly over his belly, are now fucking his cunt open. He doesn't know how many, but they feel so good. So good, Naruto's mind is turning into a puddle.

"Is this alright?" Sasuke asks, breath warm on Naruto's neck and jaw.

"Yes, yes!" Naruto looks down on his spread legs but can only see the dome that is his belly, his oversized shirt scrunched up at the top. He wishes he could watch Sasuke's fingers fuck his cunt. He wishes it were Sasuke's width instead. "Make me cum, make me cum, please!"

"What a slutty omega,"

Naruto can almost see the smirk in Sasuke's voice. Yes. It's true. Naruto is a slut. But only for Sasuke. Never for anyone else. He wants Sasuke, wants his bite, to be his mate; he wants his knot splitting him open, his love, his attention, his babies, his everything. He wants Sasuke's mouth on his neck, his chest, his clit. Naruto himself doesn't even know how many times he's masturbated to Sasuke, thinking of the many times they've tangled themselves in a fight or on the grass. Fucking himself on his fingers, rubbing his clit to the thought and scent of him, his voice, and his touch.

"Fuck… fuck…!" he curses, body begging for a knot it can't receive. "Keep fucking me, please… that's so good, alpha, please," he reaches up for Sasuke's face and brings their lips together for a kiss.

They're ruining the bed but neither of them can bother to care.

Sasuke curls his fingers up Naruto's cunt as the omega groans. "You're so good, omega, taking my fingers,"

"Wait!" Naruto gasps, feeling something building, like something will burst out of his pussy. "Sasuke… Sasuke something's going to come out—!" he screams, a second orgasm hitting him as brutally as the first.

Naruto gushes into his hand, and Sasuke keeps at it, reveling in the filthy, squelching sounds of his fingers fucking this wet hungry cunt, doesn't stop until the omega has nothing more to gush. "Fuck, you're gorgeous, squirting like that,"

Naruto pants, chest rising rapidly as he takes in breath after heavy breath, taking in the woodsy scent of his mate as he noses Sasuke's neck. He can't stop shaking, thighs trembling from intensity of the sensations. "I… squirted? Didn't know… I could do that…"

"Mhmm," Sasuke hums as he cups Naruto's belly at its base. "You good?"

"I…" Naruto blinks up at Sasuke blearily. "Don't know… I… Sasuke," he whines his mate's name, again his cunt is begging for more. He's overstimulated, sex quivering and exhausted but still throbbing for something.

"I'm here," Sasuke reaches for his cunt again, calloused fingers brushing overstimulated clit.

Naruto cries, swatting Sasuke's hand away. "That… that hurts…"

"I'm sorry, I won't touch you there," the alpha is hard and God, he wants to flip them over, pin Naruto to the bed, spread his legs and fuck him open until they're both boneless, tied together on Sasuke's knot, and the heat dissipated, but he doesn't, because neither of them are sure it's safe for mother or child.

His hand finds itself again on Naruto's belly, soft and firm at the same time; a small child carried within yet the heaviness of it in Sasuke's palm feels like a gift from the heavens.

"How are you feeling?"

"Less hot…" Naruto answers, regaining much of his clarity, but just about to be claimed by sleep once again. "What about you?" he asks, feeling Sasuke's hardness pressing against his back.

"Don't mind me. I'm ok,"

"Yeah?" Naruto gives him a weary smile. "I ruined the bed,"

Sasuke pulls the shirt down to cover Naruto's belly to keep him from getting cold. "I'll clean you up, okay? And pull the futon out for you,"

"Mmkay," the omega hums as the alpha lays him back down on his pillow.

Sasuke rushes to the bathroom to take care of the stiffness. He leans his back on the tiled wall, cock in his hand stroking frantically to chase the climax. It doesn't take too long for his knot to start swelling. Naruto's scent on him is too much. His hand is still wet with Naruto's slick and squirt. A few more strokes later, he's grunting low and guttural like he's in rut himself, knotting his own hand, desperate for Naruto's cunt. Like Naruto, an omega who's convincing his alpha to stay, he might just go into a rut, an alpha convinced to stay. But Naruto can't be knotted, not right now. He'll have to pop some suppressants and consult with Tsunade, or another doctor if she doesn't want to entertain him, if it's safe for Naruto to be tied.

He regains his breath, cleans himself up, puts his junk back in his pants, pops the last of his suppressants from his stash in his travel bag, and looks for the futon he saw in the closet to lay it down on the floor. He rummages through Naruto's dresser, takes a towel out to dampen it in the sink before coming back to his mate on the ruined bed to wipe him clean.

He wakes Naruto up enough to help him down on the futon before stripping the sheets off the bed. They're gonna have to get a new bed. Better yet, move out of this apartment, like the Godaime told him to do.

The omega groans on the futon. "I feel like I went through a real heat,"

Sasuke pauses with the ruined bed, fetches Naruto some pants from the dresser, and then a glass of water. "You feeling okay?"

"Thank you," he says, receiving the glass of water gratefully, and downs half of it in a few gulps. "Still a little tingly but I'm okay. The mattress though, it's ruined," he frowned. "The fuck is with your fingers, teme! I can't even make me squirt!"

"I only have one hand, might as well make it good, right?"

"You jerk!" Naruto throws the pillow at him. Sasuke dodges it easily. "It's not even payday yet and you're gonna make me buy a new mattress!"

They throw the mattress away and spend the nights on the futon.
