Chapter 9: Honeymoon

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or the characters.

Sasuke sat looking out the window of the carriage as it trotted along the road. The weather had turned sunny as his ebony eyes took in the nature. It had been so long since he had left the castle, he had almost forgotten what the countryside had looked like. He felt a shift at his side, and he glanced at the seat next to him. The arm that was currently around his waist pulled him tighter to his brother. . . Now husband . . . Body. Holding back a blush despite his scowl, Sasuke looked up into his brother's eyes. Wearing traveling clothes, Itachi still looked like a prince, especially with his now soft smile.

"When was the last time you were at the villa?" Itachi asked him, pulling him closer still. Sasuke looked back out the window but blushed when he felt his brother's lips on his neck.

"I-Its been years," Sasuke mumbled out. Itachi only made a small noise of acknowledgment before he kept moving down Sasuke's neck.

"We were only children then; I sent some people ahead to clean up the house and maintain the garden about a week ago. The place should be livable again by now," He said, planting a small kiss precisely behind Sasuke's ear. The boy closed his eyes as he felt the warmth of Itachi's lips touch his skin.

"Why did you choose this place for the...For the honeymoon?" Sasuke dared to ask. Itachi smiled and pulled back.

"Because it has so many memories of when we were children. I thought it would be romantic," He replied. Sasuke was caught off guard by the sentiment. Before he could reply, Itachi swooped down and kissed him. He pulled back, and Sasuke scowled at the other.

"It will be perfect," His older brother replied.

Sasuke exited the carriage while Itachi spoke to the driver. He swallowed deep in his throat as he took in one of his family's old homes. The villa had been a summer-get away when he was a small child. It held a large lush garden behind a nearly five-story mansion. The molding had faded a bit, but memories of his childhood flooded him. Playing in the fountain out back while his mother read a book on a blanket beside him and Itachi playing with his training sword near by. He closed his eyes as the sound of their laughter filled his mind. As he grew, the place had been abandoned over a course of time. He felt a hand on his shoulder as Itachi wrapped the appendage around his waist.

"Shall we go in?" He asked.

The day rolled on and Sasuke was just in one surprise after another, but after all...He was supposed to be on his honeymoon. The tough-guy persona that Itachi had built all these years dropped completely. After the wedding, Sasuke half-expected Itachi to whisk him away to his room for a night of. . . Well...After marriage sex... Instead, his brother had kissed him deeply and told him to pack. Sasuke had been a bit confused as he was ushered back to his room to pack some things. A carriage was waiting by the time Itachi came to fetch him. It took a full night of traveling in which Itachi made comfortable and if not a bit. . . Romantic. Sasuke fell asleep sometime during the journey and woken up in his brother's arms. After they had settled, Itachi took them both out into the gardens. Sasuke felt like a child again as he and Itachi wandered through the backyard and looked at all the old statues they used to hide behind. He held his brother's hand as Itachi recollected stories about when they were young. Sasuke listened and smiled when he remembered the day Itachi taught him how to swim in the lake nearby.

"Mother was furious; we came running in soaking wet," Sasuke said quietly. Itachi smiled and pulled Sasuke into his arms.

"But you no longer feared the water," His brother said. Sasuke smiled and couldn't help but chuckle at the memory. His brother leaned down, and Sasuke felt his cheeks grow warm as Itachi kissed him softly. Closing his eyes, Sasuke couldn't help but feel completely safe in his brother's arms.

Night had rolled around, and Sasuke was deep in thought. The moon shined brightly outside, and it seemed to fit the plan he had in mind. During the entire day with Itachi, all he could think about was how happy the other made him. Despite how rocky things were at first; Itachi made him feel complete and protected.

He wanted Itachi, all of him.

As his brother stroked the fire in the fire place, Sasuke stood out on the veranda, looking down into the garden. Itachi stood up from the fire, his face a bit pink from the heat. He regarded Sasuke as the boy stood by the railing, looking downward off the edge. He smiled to himself as the boy appeared to be lost in his thoughts. Walking over, he set his hands on the other's back and ran them down the boy's arms, feeling the chill of the night. Sasuke woke up from his thoughts and turned to look at his brother.

"Did you have a good day?" Itachi asked him, nuzzling his shoulder with his lips. Sasuke smiled and let out a breath. He turned in Itachi's hold and pressed himself to his brother's chest. Surprised but pleased, Itachi embraced him as Sasuke's lips touched his collar bone.

"I'm glad to get away from the castle. So much has happened in such a little amount of time. You were going off to war, that thing with mother...Getting married so soon..." Sasuke said against Itachi's skin. He felt his brother's fingers brush against the back of his head into his hair before his fingers remained buried there. Itachi gently used the grip to tilt Sasuke's head upwards.

"I did sort of rush you into this. . . " He said simply. Sasuke looked deeply into his brother's red eyes before smirking.

"You never were a patient person Itachi," Sasuke smirked. Itachi shook his head as he buried Sasuke's face back against his chest.

"I'm serious," Itachi replied. Sasuke sighed against his neck before he gently kissed the skin.

"I am too, otherwise I would have walked away instead of marrying you. Do you think I'd let either of us waste our time if I wasn't serious?" He said. Sasuke pulled back to look at Itachi in the eye.

"You know I don't do anything half ass."

Itachi smiled and regarded Sasuke with a warm look.

"Then I'm happy that you kept walking down that path," He said. Sasuke's eyes hooded as he leaned up and kissed Itachi softly. He pulled out of Itachi's arms as his brother gave him a look of confusion.

"Sasuke?" Itachi asked in confusion. Instead of answering the boy gave him what could be described as a sultry look. He walked around Itachi and back toward the room. Itachi watched as Sasuke walked to the middle the room and turned to look at him. He stood mesmerized as Sasuke reached for the belt on his pants. Itachi stood wide-eyed as Sasuke's pants fell to the ground and the long T-shirt he wore just covered the tops of his thighs. The boy kicked the pants away as he walked over to the bedroom door and peeked over his shoulder at his brother. The moonlight did wonders to Sasuke's skin. It made the tops of his thighs' glow as he leaned against the door frame, some of his shirt sliding down his shoulder as he put some hair behind his ear. Sasuke gave him a look that can only be described as arousal. Feeling his own breath catch, Itachi took a step forward.

"Sasuke," he almost purred. The boy flipped some of his hair out of his face as he started casually working on the buttons in his shirt. He turned away from Itachi just as the last button came undone, and he let his shirt smoothly fall down his arms. The article of clothing landed on the floor, and Itachi felt himself swallow with a dry mouth. Sasuke regarded him, fully nude and skin beautifully pale and unblemished. His backside was perfectly smooth, shaped legs leading up to a firm behind which Itachi couldn't stop staring at. The boy smirked at him as he ran his hand against the door frame of the bedroom. Without a word, he vanished into the dark room leaving Itachi on the veranda.

Itachi woke from his stupor and quickly strode inside, nearly slamming the glass doors behind him. Without wasting time he walked to the bedroom, trying not to appear too eager. He nearly slammed the bedroom door behind into as his eyes searched the dark for his bride. Sasuke was casually sitting on the bed; legs crossed as his chin sat on the palm of his hand. Instead of saying anything Sasuke only smiled as he sat up fully. Itachi scowl returned, but it was a playful one. As he stepped close to the bed, Sasuke kept scooting back until he was in the middle of the bed. Itachi wasted no time as he crawled over the boy still fully clothed. Sasuke let his arms fall to his sides as he lay bare under the other. Leaning up, he wrapped his arms around Itachi's neck and kissed him.

"I believe you have to be naked in order to proceed further," Sasuke advised. Itachi pressed him into the mattress with his hips, letting his arousal be known. Sasuke groaned as he opened his eyes and wrapped them around his brother's clothed waist.

"As your husband and the man who proposed, I believed I'm entitled to clarify how this should proceed further," Itachi whispered to the other. Sasuke chuckled as he ran his hands through Itachi's long hair.

"I highly doubt you want to get sweat all over your nice clothes," he said softly. Instead of answering Itachi leaned down and kissed him hard, already in the process of unbuttoning his shirt. Sasuke slapped his hands away as they kissed and undid the last few buttons himself nearly tearing it down Itachi's arms to get it off. He already started working on the button of his pants as Itachi's lips warmed down his throat. Itachi himself reached back and pushed them down, kicking them violently off the bed. He ground their bodies together, grasping the sides of Sasuke's face and kissing him several times. To his surprise, Sasuke grasped him around his shoulders and flipped him on the bed, kissing down his chest. Itachi having none of it flipped them again until he was on top and started licking down the boy's chest. Sasuke's breath hitched, but he was determined not to lose to their little game. He flipped them again as he smirked down at Itachi.

"How am I supposed to go through with my plan if you keep trying to get on top of me?" Sasuke asked playfully. Itachi growled as he grabbed Sasuke's forearms and forcefully shoved him onto his back. Wide-eyed, Sasuke blinked up at Itachi as the other spread his thighs with his knees.

"Oh, and what plan would that be? I can't fuck you while I'm under you," Itachi said in a purr. Managing to dislodge him, Sasuke slipped to the side of his brother and pushed him down forcefully with his hands on his chest. Itachi's head fell against the pillows as he stared up with now narrowed eyes at his brother. Before Itachi could get up, Sasuke straddled him and gently ground against his hips.

"Actually, there is a way you can fuck me while I'm on top. If you were patient, I could show you," Sasuke said breathlessly as he continued to grind. Itachi growled as he grabbed Sasuke's hips and thrust upward. Sasuke made a breathless noise as he felt Itachi's erection jab him in the lower back.

"Such an inpatient husband I have," he said breathlessly. Itachi continued to grind into him as his hands smoothed down the boy's back.

"I've waited too long for what I wanted," was his breathless reply. Sasuke only smirked as he leaned against the headboard, holding on with both hands. He leaned over his brother as some of his hair came loose from behind his ears and framed his face. Itachi stared up in lust at the creature that had emerged from the normally quite composed boy. Sasuke's eyes were smoldering as he gently rocked his hips on his brother's abdomen.

"Then, shall I give it to you?" Was his heated reply. Before Itachi could ask Sasuke made his move. Craning his hips up and sitting on his thighs he reached back and grabbed Itachi's erection. Itachi made a noise of arousal in surprise Sasuke gently started stroking to match his breathing. Itachi's hips thrust upwards at the touch, and he breathed heavily from the bold advances.

"Sasuke!" He seemed to moan and at the same time growl. Sasuke's only reply was a breathless laugh. Leaning backwards Sasuke reached behind him and grasped Itachi's erection with both hands. The older's eyes went wide as Sasuke grasped his cock and guided it toward his entrance. Before he could stop the boy, Sasuke plunged downwards and took all the inside of him. The boy's back snapped taut as his mouth opened wide in what could only be described is a pain filled whine. Itachi reached up and grasped Sasuke's hips, stalling him.

"Sasuke! What the hell is wrong with you?" Itachi scolded as he forced his brother still. Sasuke's only reply was to grimace before he looked down at Itachi, breathing heavily.

"As romantic as I'm sure you want to make this, let's face it Itachi... Given the opportunity this is the first thing you would've had me do the night you asked me to come to your room before you left. A ring on my finger doesn't change who I am. You want to see the real me? This is what you're married to Itachi, I may be your little brother, but I'm no blushing virgin," He explained to the other. Itachi sat up a bit as Sasuke leaned toward him. He reached up with one hand and cradled Sasuke's face with it.

"If this is your way of testing me, don't underestimate me Sasuke," He almost seemed to warn. Sasuke gave a gasp of surprise as Itachi thrust his hips upward at the same time pushing Sasuke down. Not uncommon to the pain, Sasuke bit his lip as he looked down at Itachi.

"Are you willing to accept all of me?" Sasuke asked breathlessly. Itachi smirked as he fully sat up and continued to rotate his hips. Sasuke groaned and ground in reply as his brother fully grasped the sides of his face. Itachi fully shifted them until Sasuke was sitting in his lap, and the boy wrapped his legs around his waist. Kissing Sasuke he gently grasped the back of the boy's neck and ran fingers down the boy's spine.

"I love you. . . All of you," Was his honest reply. Sasuke stared at his brother's face as he reached up and smoothed back his husband's hair."I love you too," Sasuke whispered in the dark. He didn't miss the deep gasp that came from his brother. Instead, he sat there, waiting for the other's reaction. The one he got wasn't unwelcome, just unexpected. Itachi kissed him hard, and Sasuke yelped against his lips as he was suddenly pushed fully down onto his brother's cock. He moaned helplessly as his brother grasped his hips and sent him into an unmerciful rhythm.

"You love me...You love me...Sasuke..." Itachi seemed to both purr and moan. Sasuke cried out each time his ass slammed down on to the top of his brother's thighs. Wrapping his arms around Itachi's neck, he tightened his legs as he completely let go, wanting more than anything to just hit his peak with his brother inside.

"Itachi! Itachi! Itachi!" Sasuke chanted as he strong brother forced him to ride. Itachi moved his hips powerfully as Sasuke's cried drove him on. The world outside didn't mean anything to him as he drove his cock again and over into the beautiful body of his brother. He could feel the head of his erection stabbing Sasuke's prostate, especially, by the way; the boy gasped and shouted nonsense at every thrust. Sweat gathered on his brow as he closed his eyes and let Sasuke's moan turn to music in his ears. For years, he dreamed of what it would be like to bed the boy, now he knew, and he was sure as hell was not giving it up anytime soon. The boy looked fantastic as he arched his back and let out a breathless whimper at every stab. Feeling himself fall forward, he followed Sasuke until the boy's back hit the cool sheets, his chest rising and falling rapidly. Opal black eyes shimmered in tears of both pain and pleasure as Itachi never stopped his thrusting. He was too far gone even as he felt Sasuke's thighs on either side of his shoulders. Turning his head briefly, he kissed the ankle that now rested just a few inches by his head and the action made Sasuke breath deeper.

"Nii-san..." He cooed. Itachi's let out a noise between a choke and a growl as he pushed harder into Sasuke.

"Fuck," He hissed into the air. Wasting no time, he leaned down and captured Sasuke in a rough kiss as the boy buried his hands into long silky hair that now ran freely down the older man's back. Keeping to the thrusts, Sasuke worked himself as his stomach muscles clenched in an attempt to keep orgasm at bay and the act in session as long as possible.

"Harder. . . Harder please!" The boy cried out. Itachi shook his head as he lifted himself up onto his arms to look down at the boy.

"Not yet. . . Not yet," He said. The boy lowered his hands and dug at the sheets as his older brother ground into him. Spying one of his brother's scars, he leaned up and ran his tongue along the seem of what looked to be a blade wound. He circled the puckered skin with his tongue as he felt Itachi bury his lips into his hair.

"Mine...All mine!" Itachi whispered hoarsely. Sasuke smiled against the scar as he kissed the area he had licked.

"Yeah...All yours...My husband," He whispered to the still thrusting male. Heat pooled in his loins as he felt Itachi speed his thrusts at the words. Itachi grunted each time his hips slapped forward, causing Sasuke to buck up in response and curse at the ceiling. It turned from an erotic dance to a fulfillment of pure need. Neither slowed nor cared if anyone heard as they rushed at each other with the every last bouts of strength they had left in their bones. As if some imaginary thread had snapped, Sasuke gasped and clung to Itachi's shoulder blades as he felt his brother grasp his erection and tug.

"Shit...I'm...I'm cumming!" He yelled into the air. Itachi licked up his neck as he ground viciously into his brother's opening.

"Then cum..." He breathed against the boy's ear. Sasuke obeyed as his eyes opened wide to the sky. He craned his hips upward as one thrust nailed him deep, causing him to see nothing but white into the darkness. He screamed Itachi's name as he came all over himself and his brother's chest and stomach. Itachi groaned as his cock was swallowed in a tight channel before he felt the heat coat his stomach. He clenched his teeth as he leaned upward, shedding his seed deep into his bride. His breathing was rapid as he looked down at his little brother. Both had a sheen of sweat coating their foreheads as they just stared at one another. Itachi carefully pulled out as he pulled Sasuke up and off the bed with him and into his arms. Sasuke panted against his shoulder for a moment before he buried his face into Itachi's skin.

"Sorry..." Sasuke suddenly said after he regained his breath. Itachi, confused by the word stared at the side of Sasuke's head.

"Why?" He asked the other. Sasuke shook his head and buried his face into Itachi's shoulder.

"For making our first time together a messed up rush," He said quietly. Itachi suddenly smiled and kissed the side of Sasuke's head.

"There are still things I need to understand about you. I know I haven't seen everything, but we have a whole future before I really need to get the straight facts. You should have been more patient. . . I could have hurt you," Itachi said in honesty. Sasuke's face heated up as he sat up and looked Itachi in the eye. He raised a hand and smoothed it across his brother's cheek. Itachi's deep crimson eyes could be seen even in all the darkness.

"I like the pain. . . " He said out of the blue. Itachi raised an eyebrow at him.

"Really now?" He only said. Sasuke tilted his head and then shook it.

"No. . . I don't. I just wanted to see your reaction is all..." Sasuke said instead. He had sunk further into Itachi's grasp as the other embraced him. They sat in silence for a while like that until their bodies cooled down. Sitting up a bit, Sasuke pulled back.

"I love you," He said. Itachi smiled and dragged them up further on the bed. Pulling back the sheets, he snuggled into Sasuke and tucked the boy under his chin.

"I love you too..."

Sunlight poured into the room as one of the occupants on the bed started to rise. The older of the two yawned, reaching out towards the source of heat he used during the night. Not opening his eyes, he frowned when his hand searched the area by his side and found nothing but cold sheets. Opening his eyes he blinked into the sunlight and scanned the room. He sat up with a creek in the bed and blinked in confusion. Sasuke was sitting on the end of the bed, staring at the wall, wearing nothing but his loose shirt from yesterday. His back was hunched, and it looked like he had been sitting like that for a while. Itachi pulled back the covers of the bed and let his hair cascade down his back from where it pooled on the pillow.

"Sasuke?" He asked, tiredness still pulling at him. Sasuke slowly sat up and looked over his shoulder at his brother. His eyes were red-rimmed and, there were tear streaks down his face. Itachi's eyes went wide as he stood up from the bed and not caring of his nakedness, sat next to Sasuke and touched his arm.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" He asked in worry. The emotion behind it made his words sound more like a growl and Sasuke gave a small sad smile.

"Itachi... Can I tell you something?" Sasuke said in a hoarse voice. Looking down Itachi could see tear marks in the collar of his shirt, he had been crying for a while as Itachi slept peacefully at the other end of the bed.

"What is it? Tell me!" Itachi almost demanded. Sasuke reached up and using a sleeve wiped his face. He ran his fingers through his hair before he looked away from Itachi.

"Did mother ever tell you who my father was?" He asked of his brother. Itachi narrowed his eyes but he slowly shook his head in the negative.

"No... All I know is that it's a close family member," he said. Sasuke closed his eyes as he let his hand fall from his face.

"What if I told you... That not only are you my brother... But you're also my cousin?" Sasuke stated. Itachi let the words rolled around in his head before scooting closer to Sasuke.

"You mean?" The other began. Sasuke shook his head in a nod and looked Itachi, eyes seeming lost.

"Our uncle, the one that passed away four years ago? The one that always paid extra attention to me when he visited? He's my father," Sasuke told him. Itachi controlled his breathing as he tried to gauge Sasuke's reaction. He was also trying to figure out why Sasuke was telling him this. Was he trying to prove a point, he didn't understand.

"Does it matter?" Itachi asked him instead. Sasuke frowned as he looked away and stood from the bed. He approached the mirror on the opposite side of the room and looked into it. He traced his face with his fingers as he looked at Itachi in the reflection.

"But I'm perfect... I have no abnormalities... No mental restrictions... From a union between brother and sister... I'm normal. Why is that?" Sasuke seemed to be asking himself more than his brother. Itachi sat silently until he also stood and approached the boy. He wrapped his arms around Sasuke and grabbing his chin, making the boy look at him and not the reflection.

"I don't care," Itachi simply told him. Sasuke shook his head as the formation of tears began to appear in his eyes again.

"But I do, don't you see how wrong this is? I love you; I do... But I will always have this hanging over my head," the boy whispered in sorrow. Ignoring the tears, Itachi leaned forward and kissed Sasuke. The boy swallowed his despair and felt the warmth of Itachi's kiss envelope him. He pulled back and Itachi gently wiped away the tear.

"No matter what we are, brothers, cousins... Abominations, I don't care. I have you; I will fight to keep you; I'll kill anybody who tries to separate us, and I'll always love you exactly like the moment I knew I wanted you to be mine," Itachi said. Sasuke reached up to touch the area of skin precisely below Itachi's eyes.

"You will always stay with me? Despite what I am?" Sasuke asked of him. Itachi smiled as he skillfully scooped Sasuke into his arms and led him toward the bed. He settled Sasuke against the pillows and gently crawled over him, starting to undo his shirt.

"It's lone flesh; it's solitary blood... What we have, what we will always have is spiritual. It won't make sense in the eyes of others, but we don't need anyone else but ourselves. I love you Sasuke; I don't care if we came from the same woman or even have the equivalent father. You're mine and I am yours for eternity," he smiled undoing Sasuke's last button. Sasuke's sadness wasn't gone, but it seemed at ease. He opened his arms as Itachi removed the shirt and let it slide to the floor. His brother's hands roamed his body as he gently squeezed Sasuke and kissed his chest. The sense of arousal came back to them, and gentleness overtook them and their emotions. Itachi dragged the sheets over both so nothing, but the feel of body heat connected them. Leaning down he touched his forehead to Sasuke's and smiled.

"Fit for a Prince," he whispered. Sasuke closed his eyes as he reached up and brought Itachi to his lips.

"And richer than a King," he whispered back. Moving their hips, they were blind to the world as the brothers embraced. The morning was filled the sounds of soft lovemaking; they had been long overdue since the whole thing started. The world revolved around them now; they wouldn't have it any other way.
