-----------------Chapter 1--------------------
"N-No S-Sa...suke!" stuttered the blonde, he was sprawled over a queen size bed, with his arms above his head, in a position of innocent surrender. He tried to pull away as his lover advanced forward, ready to attack the blonde's still buttoned pants, his shirt already thrown onto the floor, alone and rejected. The Uchiha continued his assault on his fair-haired companion, slowly dragging kisses from his neck, down to his chest. The sharingan user took a detour, beginning to suck softly on the blonde's erect nipple.
The blonde immediately froze as black onyx eyes stared seductively at his shadowed face. It was so hard to resist them. So hard.
“N-No Sasuke. P-Please stop” the blonde called out, the words faltering from the ecstasy that was entering his body.
"What is it dobe? You don't want me?" replied the Uchiha.
The blonde's heart feeling stabbed by those last words. The sharingan user closed his black onyx eyes and stalled his advancement on the blonde, reposing himself on the opposite side of the bed, facing away from his lover.
'Not again' thought Sasuke.
This was the third night in a row that Naruto had rejected his forceful suggestion on love making. It was beginning to bug him. He was a man, and it was only natural that he wanted to be sexually active with his lover, this was getting ridiculous! Sasuke had been holding off from the sexual activity and if he didn't release it soon he was going to go nuts!
The blonde stared at his lover's naked back, wondering what he was thinking about; questioning whether he had deterred his mood for now, even the thought of whether he had made Sasuke mad. The blonde's eyes softened when he felt somehow guilty for putting Sasuke in this mood.
It's just that...Naruto felt he wasn't ready. Sure they had done love making in the past, but lately...Naruto felt like Sasuke was expecting something from him. That once the heat of the moment was over, he was unsatisfied with Naruto's performance and the end result. Eventually making the blonde want to stop everything before he saw the disappointment he made on the Uchiha's face. It was a burden that he was carrying alone.
The blonde brought his legs to his chest, sending warmth from his torso to his legs. Naruto sat silently on the bed, while a light breeze came from the near by open window. Naruto gazed over to the night sky, his blue eyes shimmering. It was a full moon tonight. The moon basking in a blue glow, filling his heart with mystery and wonder. Nothing in the darkness is ever beautiful, but upon gazing at the moon, through the gloom of the night, the blonde could truly say,
“It's Beautiful” unknowingly of the blonde, the words slipped out of his mouth, cascading down like dominos until reaching their final destination; Sasuke's ears, a heavy atmosphere was lingering in the air. Sasuke stood up off the bed, causing the blonde to come out of his daze,
“I'll be in the shower” was his curt reply.
The blonde stared blankly as Sasuke walked across the bedroom and into the bathroom, his eyes softening. The sound of the taps turning and then followed by a gush of water, Sasuke began to carefully remove his remaining clothes, tossing them onto the tiled floor. Stepping into the shower, he felt a rush of heat emanate from the water beating against his body. This was the one place where he could be alone and reflect, allowing him to be himself and contemplate everything in his life. He stood there, his eyes slowly shutting as he once again let his trail of thoughts run. His brother. His clan. Naruto.
“My dream…” he whispered; as the water flowed through his black hair, and down his body. Images of his parent's death flashed before him, and his brother's smirk, quickly snapping him out of his reflection, in his eyes tears beginning to form,
“I wasn't even strong enough…to kill him, my hate wasn't strong enough…and now…my dream has gone to trash!” Sasuke's chakra flowing to his fist, just as it collided with the tiled wall beside him. Extracting blood from his fist as the titles concaved inwards. He looked at his hand, watching as the blood dripped downwards mixing with the running water, moving his hand towards his chest, placing it upon his heart,
“Stupid heart…” he muttered.
Sasuke continued on with his shower, not realizing that his lover outside began to grow with concern from the smashing sound he had heard.
Naruto continued to sit on the bed, already well aware of what had occurred in the bathroom, he felt tears starting to form, and began a battle to keep them inside himself.
“A ninja does not cry…” he said it to himself, repeating it over and over in a soft voice, until he knew that those tears would not show. Saying them again and again trying to make those words real to him. A gentle breeze entered the bedroom along with it a dozen or so cherry blossoms, each dancing together as the breeze spun them around like a man would to a woman while dancing, the moon shining down upon each making them glisten like stars.
Sasuke strolled out of the bathroom and entered the bedroom, his gaze dropped to Naruto on the bed, who was watching those cherry blossoms. He made his way to the opposite side of the bedroom, harshly breaking through the swirling petals, each falling onto the wooden floor.
He slid into the bed and laid facing away from Naruto, the blond looked at the back of the Uchiha's head, waiting for some sort of reply, except…he got none. Distress filled Naruto face, he reached his hand out and placed it upon his lovers arm, only to have it harshly nudged off, without a second thought,
“Good NIGHT Naruto” Sasuke said to the blond, his voice deep and stern with an emphasis on the `night' when he said it.
The blond recoiled his hand and sunk into the bed, his blue eyes slowly shutting as a single tear slipped down his cheek and onto his pillow, whispering softly,
“I'm sorry…” just before rolling over and silently falling into the darkness of his dreams.
Naruto awoke the next morning with a startle, only to find himself alone in his cold bedroom, wishing that the night before had only been a dream, his wish being shattered as he saw the note on Sasuke's pillow, picking it up the blond read it out loud to himself,
“I have a mission today and it's gonna take all day, so don't wait up for me dobe. Sasuke” Naruto stared at the note, his eyebrows furrowing.
Sasuke must be really mad, he always puts `love Sasuke' at the ends of notes when he leaves them for me…the blonde's train of thought was then disrupted by his growling stomach.
“Okay Okay. I get the point. Hmm I feel like having ramen for breakfast!” the blonde exclaimed, jumping out of bed and down the stairs into the large kitchen.
It had been almost 2 years since Naruto had married Sasuke and moved in with him into the mansion he inherited from his parents, and still the blonde couldn't get used to the freedom and space he had in the house. In his old apartment you could barely move, since the place was so crowded, even with only the basic of furniture, all in the one room which included what you could call a kitchen.
“I was only 17 when I had realized my love for you, I wasn't even considered an adult yet…I was still very young. After two years of dating and watching the seasons pass by together, you asked me to marry you, even if it wouldn't be legal or legitimate, you wanted to marry me because it was me. Its now almost two years later, I'm 21 and I consider myself an adult, I'm still not Hokage yet, but I'm getting there.” Naruto had once again been talking to himself, he gently poured the ramen from the package and into the boiling water being careful not to get splashed by the hot water. He stirred the water with two chopsticks, gently parting the noodles as they swam in the water.
2 minutes later they were done, and he was quickly wolfing them down, they tasted great as usual, he was an expert at cooking ramen. The blonde slurped up the last remains of the ramen in his bowl only to wonder what next he could do today, his eyes wandering around looking for something to do, suddenly a loud knock coming from the front door.
“Who could that be so early in the morning?”
