Chapter 4

Naruto woke at about 8am to a dark room. His eyes found clothes thrown messily on the floor and a bin with a condom inside. His eyes then found the sleeping raven in his arms.

Well, arm. He couldn't feel his right arm, as the Uchiha had cut off the circulation. Naruto kissed the back of Sasuke's head and took a deep breath, savouring the smell of sex in the air. What a night! He wouldn't mind countless other nights like that.

At first Sasuke had been cocky and dominant, but that was before they'd really opened up to each other. They'd found some kind of understanding – of which Naruto knew nothing about – and Sasuke had immediately become gentle and tender, wanting to pleasure Naruto, even though it was technically a one-night stand.

Was it a one-night stand? Now when Naruto thought of the Uchiha his stomach was filled with butterflies and he felt a giddy rush of pleasure. Was it lust… or something more? Those eyes… those onyx eyes hinted of something different.

Shaking the thoughts aside, Naruto quietly extracted his arm from underneath Sasuke and crawled out of bed, padding over to the bathroom. He didn't bother closing the door and went straight to the spacious shower, turning on the water and allowing it to cleanse him from the sex scent. The water became warm, but it wasn't warm enough. Steam started to fill the room and Naruto turned his face up into the water stream, allowing it to block everything out.

A hand on his waist made him open his eyes and he saw that Sasuke had stepped into the shower with him.

"Good morning sleepyhead," Naruto grinned, wiping his face.

"Morning to you too," Sasuke replied.

"You gave me a dead arm and now I've got pins-and-needles."

Sasuke frowned and took the right arm, glancing at Naruto questioningly. Naruto nodded and Sasuke lifted the arm, tenderly kissing up the entire length, from shoulder to hand, and kissed each individual finger. By the time he was finished the tingling feeling was entirely different.

"Is that better?"

Naruto nodded, noticing the change in Sasuke's expression. The raven pulled the blonde away from the water stream and kissed him, toes tightening on the adhesive stickers stuck on the tiled floor. It was a different kiss, unlike all the ones they'd shared the previous night. Naruto's chest clenched at the kiss and he wondered where their relationship was going to go. Was it a relationship? Were they lovers?

Sasuke's hand moved down to stroke the blondes half-hard member, fully-hardening it in seconds. Naruto gave Sasuke the same treatment, his fingers moving cleverly down the pale length, causing Sasuke to groan against his mouth.

Their lips parted and Naruto ran his tongue over the raven's mouth. "Shower sex sounds good right about now."

A snarl escaped from Sasuke's face and he pushed Naruto back against the wall, kissing him open-mouthed. Water cascaded down the raven's back and pooled at their feet, steam rising from the heated water.

"Mmm… Naruto…" Sasuke moaned, thrusting his tongue into the blonde's mouth. Naruto received it eagerly and ran his hands up Sasuke's chest to cup his face, liquid gushing between his fingers. Their tongues fought for dominance and their members slipped against each other, sending shivers up their spines.

Naruto lowered one hand and began to pump Sasuke's member slowly, a gasp sounding as Sasuke bucked his hips forward. Some of Sasuke's hair slipped into Naruto's mouth and he wound his tongue around it, pulling back and running his lips over the black strands. He let go of the hair and plunged his mouth onto Sasuke's neck, licking and suckling the skin there to give the raven a matching hickey. Sasuke threw his head back and closed his eyes, allowing the water to wash down his face. Naruto's hand and tongue worked furiously, pleasuring his partner as much as he possibly could before they got down and dirty.

Sasuke snapped his head forward. "You wanna get started?"

The blonde lifted his head and licked his lips. "I thought we were."

"You were. We don't want to use too much water do we?"

"You're right. What do you propose?"

"I'll show you." Sasuke gripped Naruto's legs and tugged on them invitingly. Naruto placed his hands on Sasuke's shoulders and jumped, wrapping his legs around the raven's middle as his partner tightened his grip, holding the blonde in place. He was pushed against the wall by the standing male and felt something deliciously wet glide over his entrance. Sasuke bit his lip worriedly, which Naruto noticed.

"You don't have to prepare me. I can handle it." Naruto nodded and reached one hand below his ass, manoeuvring the raven's member into position.

"If you're sure…" Sasuke let Naruto drop a little bit and thrust his hips up, pushing inside the blonde with all his strength. Since his member was wet it slid in easily and hurt much less than Naruto expected, but the pain was still sharp. Sasuke stilled for several long moments, simply allowing the blonde to adjust as the water trickled down his back.

"Okay."

He began to move, holding Naruto against the wall with his upper body and pushing inside him with his lower body. All his muscles worked furiously to make those groans and cries worth it as Naruto experienced indescribable pleasure, overriding all pain. The thrusts weren't fast because Sasuke couldn't do speed in the position he was in. Naruto knew that and didn't ask him to go faster, instead riding the raven at the pace he'd set. As they were in the shower, they didn't notice the amount of sweat that coated their bodies in the energy-sapping position.

Naruto and Sasuke opened their eyes at the same moment, blue and onyx orbs meeting in a heat-filled gaze.

Love comes through the eyes…

The words fluttered through Naruto's mind, hidden on a cloud of ecstasy; a half-formed thought that lodged itself at the back of his mind as he and Sasuke rocked together, eyes locked in something much more meaningful than sex.

"Do you want me to… come inside you?" Sasuke panted.

He's asking me? What do I say! Well, it's either say yes and have it drip out all day, or say no and pleasure it out of him a different way.

"No… I have something… else I want… to try."

Sasuke nodded and slowly pulled out, gently lowering Naruto down onto the tiled floor. They stared at each other, bodies filled with lust for the other, and Sasuke stepped close, so close that their hot breaths mingled.

"What do you have in mind?" the raven panted, his muscles quivering. Naruto cocked his head and pulled Sasuke close so their chests touched, one hand winding in his soaked hair and the other reaching down to stroke his member again. Sasuke's hand slid around Naruto's own erect member and began to pump, slowly at first before gaining rhythm. Their hands moved together and their eyes were locked again in the same inescapable moment. Sasuke bent his head and placed a gentle kiss on Naruto's lips, letting his mouth linger for far too long. The kiss didn't say 'we're just having sex', it said 'I want to do more than have sex'. It sent Naruto's emotions rolling and his rhythm faltered. Sasuke kissed him harder, closing his eyes and releasing him from the hypnotic stare. The blonde relaxed and fell back into the rhythm, being driven over the edge by Sasuke's clever fingers.

"Ungh… ah," Sasuke grunted, his hips jerking as he released, hot liquid gushing onto Naruto's thighs. Despite his release, he managed a few more unsteady pumps that resulted in liquid all over his thighs. The kiss lingered as they dripped with warmth.

They parted slowly, eyes meeting hesitantly, releasing their members. Sasuke let out a long breath and laced his fingers through Naruto's in a gesture that both shocked and confused the blonde.

"I'm sorry for hurting you before," the raven said, water trickling down his face adorably. Naruto immediately became aware of soreness around his ass that would bug him all day.

"It's okay, I told you to go ahead."

Sasuke let go of Naruto and stepped fully into the stream, letting the water wash all evidence of sex from his body. "You wanna have breakfast?" he asked.

"Sure?"

"Okay. I'll just go to my room and get ready first. We'll meet at one of the window tables. What food do you like?"

"Uh, hash browns… bacon… that kind of stuff."

Sasuke smiled and stepped out of the shower. "I'll see you then." He grabbed a towel and turned his back, drying himself before leaving the bathroom.

How is he so… so casual? I was just feeling so awkward and he made it… not awkward. This guy…

Naruto let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding and moved under the stream, scrubbing his body with his hands. What was it about Sasuke that made him feel so weird? He'd never felt these feelings around his previous boyfriends and it frightened him. The hidden thought surfaced and he froze.

Am I falling for him? Am I falling for the fling? God, please don't let it be true. I don't even know him. But I want to. I really want to. Gah, this is so annoying! Snorting, he turned off the shower and stepped into the steamy room, towelling himself dry vigorously. There's just no way. It's just a fling. But he makes me feel so different and I can't ignore that. I'll bet he sees it as just a fling, but does he? Uhh, I'm just thinking up all these questions and I don't have any answers. Just forget it for now and go to breakfast.

Sasuke was gone by the time Naruto walked out of the bathroom. A glance at the rumpled bed and the condom in the bin filled him with strange warmth and he bit his lip, staring at his rumpled clothes on the floor. He dug new clothes from his bag and pulled them on, making sure that he wore a collared shirt so his hickey's weren't visible on his neck. His ass stung as he pulled on his shorts and he winced, rubbing it tenderly. Maybe he should have prepared himself better. Oh well. He pulled on converse and went to leave, but a note on the door caught his attention.

Naruto,

Thank you for the best night. I'll see you at breakfast.

Sasuke

His heart fluttered and he tucked the note into his pocket before heading out into the late morning. The sun beat down on his back as he walked along the path absently, hands tucked in his pockets with fingers curling around the piece of paper. A slow smile spread across his face and he passed by two children on bikes that were calling each other names.

He entered the dining hall and saw Sasuke immediately. The raven was sitting at a two-seater table beside the window, one plate in front of him and one where Naruto would be sitting. Naruto padded over and sat quickly, blushing.

"You said you liked hash browns and bacon," Sasuke said, picking up his fork. "So tell me about your work."

"There's nothing much to tell," Naruto shrugged, tucking into his breakfast. "I'm the manager and a waiter and it keeps me busy most days. If I didn't have my team I'd be screwed."

"How many people have you got?"

"Uh… there're three waitresses, four chefs, two bartenders and a front desk lady. They're the best workers I could ever hope for. Where did you used to work?"

"I was a receptionist at a business firm because I hadn't finished my university qualifications, but I wasn't bubbly enough for my boss. So he sacked me before I was able to finish my degree and become a qualified businessman. If he'd waited a few more months I'd be fine, but no. Now I've got no job and I've had to move back in with my brother." He sighed. "Sorry. I'm just really annoyed at that."

He needs a job? I suppose it wouldn't hurt to hire someone else, but I'd need to get to know him a bit more first. I need to know what kind of skills he has.

"What type of business?"

"The financial and retail business, so I specialise in money and sales."

This feels really nice. It's like we've never hooked up and we're just chatting as friends.

"I hate all the money work. I've got this thing called the Bill Book and I hate it so much."

Sasuke snorted. "You called it 'Bill Book'?"

"It's where I do all the financial planning and that stuff. I gave it to Tenten for the week and hopefully she follows my instructions. I'm the only one who knows how to use it."

"I trust you make the transactions online."

"Yup, with online banking and it's much easier than going into the bank every week to make the deposits."

"My brother's a banker. He manages all those transactions with Forbes bank in Sacramento."

"Oh, you live in Sacramento?"

"Yeah, pretty close by I know."

"Hidden Leaf is in Sacramento at the southwest side."

"I live in the southeast side. That's really close."

Naruto whistled. "I would never have thought we'd live so close."

Sasuke looked down at his breakfast. "I haven't heard of Hidden Leaf. Maybe I should drag my brother to the southwest side to check it out. You said its five-star?"

"Yup, and we've got an à la carte menu with all kinds of vegetarian, gluten-free and lactose-free options."

"Sounds delicious," Sasuke grinned.

"So what do you have planned today?"

"Eh, I was thinking of hanging by the pool and getting sunburnt." Sasuke smirked. "I don't tan, I burn."

"Hm so that's where I'll find you," Naruto said slyly, winking over his fork. "I'd like to see you in your swimmers."

Sasuke smirked. "I'm sure you do. After all, I'm hot."

"That's true. But so am I."

"Also true…"

They both began to laugh over the remains of their breakfasts, sharing a secret smile. Lovers… friends… what are we? I don't even know. Naruto was the first to grab his plate and stand. "So I'm going to head out. I'll be seeing you later on."

"Definitely," Sasuke agreed, dipping his head to finish off his bacon. Naruto took his plate over to the disposal and left the dining hall, glancing back at Sasuke once.
