Chapter 7:

'Niichan?' Naruto called surprised to find Sasuke setting up the table for breakfast. He looked at a plate of bacon that Sasuke set on the dining table and then looked at Sasuke. He had just woken up, about to walk into the kitchen when he saw Sasuke coming out of the kitchen.

'Good Morning.' Sasuke greeted with a smile. He paused when he took notice of the person walking behind Naruto but did not say a word about it though yet kept his eyes on Naruto's companion.

Naruto looked surprised to see the usual Sasuke. He looked a bit relieved that Sasuke can now show a genuine smile at him.

'Naruto?' Shikamaru called walking behind Naruto. He looked pass Naruto, his eyes met Sasuke's, bowed his head out of paying respect. 'You must be Naruto's brother.' He spoke in a mild tone.

'Yeah.' Sasuke answered Shikamaru with a smile. 'And you are –' He knows most of Naruto's friends. It is the first time he set his eyes on the likes of Shikamaru.

'My name is Nara. Nara Shikamaru.' Shikamaru introduced. 'I'm Naruto's schoolmate.'

'Nice to meet you.' Sasuke greets back. 'You can refer to me in any way that you like. A friend of Naruto's is a friend of mine.'

'Sorry for bothering.' Shikamaru apologized. 'Just when you weren't around.' He avoided meeting Sasuke's gaze. He felt he had done something wrong seeing the accusing eyes of Sasuke.

'It's alright.' Sasuke said with a smile. He wanted to hide behind his smile his discontent with the sudden appearance of an unexpected guest. He wanted to have talk with Naruto hoping to decide with the young blond what will become of them.

Breakfast, Shikamaru stayed quiet. He felt awkward with Sasuke's presence. He feared that if he would speak, he would say words that will turn the mood sour, after all, he did hear from Naruto's way of speaking that there is a problem.

'You won't go to class?' Sasuke asked pausing from eating. 'Won't you be late for your first class?' He looked at Shikamaru and Naruto eating the food he had served having in mind if his companions are enjoying his home cook meal. He couldn't remember the last time he dined with Naruto after the incident.

'It's alright.' Naruto said eating happily the food. 'I don't want to go to school today.' He couldn't say out loud that he is worried that he will not find Sasuke when he returns home that is why he refuses to go to school. He tried to hide his feelings from Sasuke, although he wasn't sure if he was able to. He is well aware how Naruto read him like an open book.

'And Nara?' Sasuke stated. He glanced at Shikamaru looking at his way, froze up about to take a bite off the spoon. 'I don't want anything said by your parents.'

'You don't need to worry.' Shikamaru put down his spoon. He faced Sasuke. 'They trust my decisions just as you do to your brother's.' he sounded like an adult.

'Still, playing hooky will be bad.' Sasuke stated wit h a cold expression. He took a bite from his spoon, returned his attention on his food. 'I wouldn't suggest that you do it unless you have a valid reason.' If there is one thing he had noticed from Shikamaru, the young male tried to have eye contact with him even though

'My family is fine with it.' Shikamaru spoke with a matter of fact tone. 'Well they would actually prefer that I act more of my own age. They keep saying that I grew up too quickly and should just play around for a while.'

'Hmmm…' Sasuke reacted; he had no more to say to Shikamaru. The words spoken by Shikamaru "act more of my own age" hit him like an arrow. He is well aware that the action he did to Naruto is not something he should have done; it wasn't something that he should have forced on Naruto.

Shikamaru noticed that Sasuke's manner became meek. He changes the topic, 'Naruto could I borrow your bathroom and a change of clothes perhaps later?'

'Okay.' Naruto answered with a smile. 'You can wash your clothes there if you want to. There is a dryer installed there as well.'

Shikamaru couldn't help notice the grimace that Sasuke have as Naruto continue to speak to him in a friendly manner.

After breakfast, Shikamaru went and took a bath leaving Naruto and Sasuke in the living room to talk.

Naruto serves a hot drink of coffee to Sasuke. Sasuke looked like he paid no heed to Naruto's action.

Sasuke quickly finished his drink. He left the velvet black sofa, walked towards Naruto's seat. He moved closer that his body would be a few inches close to the blond. He topped the blond practically lying on the sofa already.

'Sasuke-nii?' Naruto called looking up to Sasuke. He looked uncomfortable as Sasuke looms over him.

Sasuke leans forward, moves his face towards Naruto's collar bone. He took a big bite, marking the blonde's skin around the collar bone.

'It hurts!' Naruto complained as he tried to push away Sasuke from the pain.

Sasuke made a big red bite mark on the blonde's skin, he withdraws his face from the blonde's body; he looked at the mark he made. He looked pleased at what the result to what he did.

Naruto glares at Sasuke. He covered the place that Sasuke's mouth had touched. 'That hurts!' he complained. He didn't know the purpose it serves that Sasuke had to bite him. He looked sad thinking that Sasuke is mad at him. He apologized, 'I'm sorry if I let him stay uninvited.'

Sasuke smiled seeing that Naruto thought he is mad at the younger male. He thought of something interesting. I'll need to punish you Naruto.'

Naruto looked at the Sasuke wondering what Sasuke plans to do.

Sasuke smiled. He gave a peck on the blond's forehed and then gave a deep kiss to the blond on the lips.

Naruto tried to push Sasuke away only his hands taken by Sasuke singlehandedly. He tried to break free his hands but couldn't. Sasuke's grip on him is tight. He could only surrender to Sasuke's forcefulness.

Sasuke had his way on the blond. He played with Naruto's tongue with his tongue. He stopped kissing Naruto and withdraws. He released Naruto's hands knowing the blond had given up in fighting him and under his control. He looked at Naruto's face in daze. He gave a peck on the bite mark he gave to Naruto, licked it. He moved his lips to nibbles on Naruto's ear, bite it lightly and then licked it.

Sasuke gave more to Naruto taking his time to enjoy in caressing, kissing, nibbling and licking Naruto's body while avoiding as much to touching Naruto's lower half reacting to him.

'Sa… Sasuke…' Naruto stutters as his arousal pent up a tent. He didn't like what Sasuke is doing especially with Shikamaru inside their home. He tried to resist Sasuke more.

Sasuke stopped. He looked at Naruto, the blond shirt up revealing Naruto's chest - the blond's nipples aroused from having been bitten, touched, licked, and sucked. 'Should I stop?' he asked teasing the blond.

Naruto looked at Sasuke. He whimpers to Sasuke's touch. He wanted to say stop but what he felt that Sasuke would keep continuing.

Sasuke enjoyed much seeing the reaction the blond have. He wanted the blond to hear the blond cry out, plea to him.

'…' Naruto's face flushed.

-:-

'Thanks for lending me clothes.' Shikamaru thanked. He stood with Naruto and Sasuke at the doorway showing him the way out. 'I'l return this as soon as possible.'

'Be careful on the way!' Sasuke bid farewell with a smile.

'Thanks.' Shikamaru answered. He thought that whatever happened while he was in the bathroom, the foul mood that Sasuke was in disappeared.

'See you tomorrow then.' Naruto said with a forced smile. Just thinking that Shikamaru might have caught Sasuke and him in an awkward situation would have made his cheeks red.
