This will probably be considered a pretty short chapter – but one that I think/hope people will like…

I don't own anything regarding Naruto or it's characters

Enjoy and please review

Chapter 30: Teenage Dream

At the police station detectives were torn. There was so much contradicting evidence. The new circumstances certainly created reasonable doubt about Itachi's conviction. Had this information been available at the time of trial he probably wouldn't have been convicted. Everything that was once rock solid evidence no longer solid, it was all something that could have been manipulated in a short time. If the evidence were to be shown to a judge they were sure that the judge would repeal the conviction. "Do you think we wrongly convicted Itachi?" one of the detectives asked.

"Possibly," the chief of police replied. He was no longer sure that the police work done ten years ago was good enough. "Have they ran Mikoto's prints against the ones we found on the key to the gun safe?" he asked, knowing exactly what the results would be.

"It's a positive match," the main detective told him. All of them were hoping that it wouldn't be, but they knew it would be and they had no reasonable explanation why she would be the one to open the safe when Itachi supposedly planned to shoot his father.

"We're going to have to present this new evidence to a judge," he told the other men. "The problem is I don't think we have enough evidence to convict Mikoto," he sighed. He knew that ten years was a long time and that even with a confession the defense could make an argument for her saying it was a false confession. They could also say that Sasuke was only eight and being that young and having it be that long ago could obscure memories. "We can try, but there is a lot of reasonable doubt with this case," he told the men. They all knew that it was possible a killer would go free, whether it be Mikoto or Itachi that pulled the trigger they doubted they had enough to convict, "All we can hope for is that the jury believes Sasuke and that it is enough.

Sasuke was reluctant to hang out with their friends. He didn't want the questions that went with leaving the room. Everyone wanted to know what was going and he didn't want to talk about it. There were always news cameras and other students that wanted to know what he hadn't told the news. It was the most high profile case ten years before and it was becoming that again.

For the majority of the conversation Sasuke remained quiet. He had always been quiet but at that moment he was being quieter than normal. His hands had become much more interesting than any conversation that they may be having at that moment. "Are you okay Sasuke?" Suigetsu asked.

"What do you think?" Kiba replied. "The guy has to deal with police and cameras, do you really think he's okay?" he said, they all knew it was a stupid question. Their conversation was making Sasuke uncomfortable.

"I'm just trying to be a good friend," Suigetsu said, wanting Sasuke to open up about it. He knew it was hard to get Sasuke to talk about anything, but he thought if he talked about it then it may make him feel better. He knew Sasuke kept things bottled inside and it wasn't healthy.

"Guys, stop," Naruto demanded. "I don't think he wants to talk about it right now," he said, knowing that Sasuke had talked about it enough by talking to the police. "Can we just talk about something else?" he asked, becoming protective again.

"Sorry," both Kiba and Suigetsu mumbled. Sasuke was still tense, not wanting to be there. He knew all of them wanted to talk about it but were restraining. He wasn't ready to share the entire story with everyone. He had told the police so he knew it'd come out eventually, but it was difficult to say once, let alone repeatedly.

"I want to go out tonight," Karin said. She may have been pregnant but she still wanted to have fun. She knew that she couldn't drink, but going out with friends was always a good time, especially when they were friends like hers.

"You're pregnant," Suigetsu argued. He had become even more protective of her ever since he'd heard the news. It wasn't as if he didn't let her have fun, he just thought going to a club, bar, or party was a bad idea.

"That doesn't mean I can't have fun," she told him in a tone that meant he shouldn't argue. He knew then that he should shut up and go along with it. "There's a party that this guy in my bio class is throwing, we should go," she suggested.

"You talk to guys in your bio class?" he asked, getting jealous. She just glared at him and he dropped the subject, knowing he was starting to annoy her. "Sorry," he mumbled. Ever since she'd become pregnant her mood swings had become worse. He knew not to mess with a pregnant woman.

Everyone started talking about the party and how fun it'd be but Sasuke just said, "I'm not going." They all started arguing about how it'd be good for him to go out. They said he needed a night out to just get his mind off of everything.

"You guys leave him alone," Naruto ordered. "If he doesn't want to go out you can't make him go," he said, knowing how hypocritical that statement was. He'd made Sasuke go out many times before they'd started dating, but he wasn't going to mention that.

"Says the man that wouldn't put clothes on until Sasuke agreed to go out," Kiba laughed. He knew all about every time Naruto had found ways to get Sasuke to go out and he was going to use that against him. "Or how about the time," he started but Naruto cut him off.

"I get it," he said, pissed off that he told Kiba everything. "But this time, if he doesn't want to go out, just drop it," he said, his tone letting everyone know to drop the subject. The conversation went back to the party, excluding the subject of Sasuke.

Sasuke sat in his dorm reading. He had convinced Naruto to go out with their friends. The blond was a partier, he wasn't going to hold him back just because he didn't want to go. He was surprised when the dorm room door opened; it was still early so he didn't expect Naruto to be back. "What are you doing back?" Sasuke asked as he put his book down.

"It just didn't feel right without you," Naruto shrugged as he kicked off his shoes. He sat next to Sasuke, moving the book to the nightstand.

"Stop acting like a girl," Sasuke joked. It may have only been a short period of time, but he had fallen in love with Naruto. The blond had somehow managed to break down all of his walls. Naruto just smiled at him and Sasuke quietly said, "Thanks."

"For what?" the blond asked. He didn't understand why Sasuke would thank him, all he did was come back early.

"Everything," was Sasuke's response. They were both silent for a moment before Sasuke kissed him. It started out innocent but quickly turned passionate as Sasuke climbed into Naruto's lap. When Sasuke started to unbutton Naruto's shirt the blond stopped him, he knew that Sasuke was in an emotional state and didn't want to take advantage of it. "Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked. "Very," Sasuke replied before he started to kiss him again, that wall all Naruto needed.

Naruto turned them so that they were lying on the bed, him hovering over Sasuke. His shirt was quickly on the floor and Sasuke's hands were on his chest, exploring. Soon Sasuke shirt joined Naruto's and the blond started to kiss down his neck. That was when Naruto slowed it down. He didn't want it to go quick, he wanted to take it slow and actually make love.

Sasuke grinded their hips together, trying to speed it up, but Naruto continued to take it slow. He made Sasuke moan as he formed a mark on Sasuke's neck. He loved the way his name sounded on Sasuke's lips and it was quickly making him hard, harder than he'd ever been before. He explored every inch of Sasuke's chest and neck, finding every spot that made him moan and move, what he liked.

"Naruto, stop making me wait," Sasuke half moaned and half whined as Naruto slowly unbuttoned his pants. "Patience is a virtue," Naruto told him as he pulled off his pants and boxers all at once. "Not one that I have," he replied as he took off his own pants. Naruto just kissed him and continued to take it slow. He knew Sasuke would be happy he took the time once it was all done.

TBC…

I'm leaving the rest to your imagination on that…

One more chapter left and then it's all done – I have mixed feelings about that…

Do you think Mikoto should be sent to jail? Let me know…
