TOO FREE TO TIE DOWN

Written: March 8, 2004

Disclaimer: Yes my name is Kishimoto. Yes I am a guy. Yes, I own Naruto. ….T__T Maybe in my dreams. All characters belong to Kishimoto-san unless otherwise stated. This is a work of fiction and the story is a figment of my imagination. 'Kay?

Warnings: Yaoi, SasuNaru mainly, T_T unrequited love, and can we say that Sasuke has a serious Naruto complex???

Excuse the shortness….

PROLOGUE:

Love. Sasuke didn't think he understood love. Lust he understood, certainly. Sometimes when he came back from training and watching Kakashi-sensei's muscles flexing, he found himself rock hard. Other times, when the Genin of Konoha teased each other about their nightlives, Sasuke would wish he had someone who would ease his troubled body too.

Unfortunately, all he had for company were his daily frigid showers and his warm hand.

He knew he wasn't straight. That much was for sure. Growing up in the restrictive family that he'd had, and with a homicidal sociopathic brother like that, it was no wonder that Sasuke was as gay as sin, and horny to boot.

So what was it about Naruto then? None of the other men his body so rebelliously reacted to brought forth the same tangled ball of emotions that Naruto did. Sure there was the whole rival bit and the old proverb "opposites attract," but he didn't understand why he felt so different towards Naruto than he'd felt towards anyone in his life.

Sasuke didn't know when his feelings for Naruto had begun to change. Sure Naruto was a sight to behold, with his sun brightened blond hair and his cherubic face. It didn't really matter that Naruto was growing up to resemble the Fourth more and more everyday.

It didn't really matter that Naruto had developed rock hard abs, which he'd had the pleasure of punching that very morning, or the fact that Naruto had become a powerful shinobi in his own right.

Naruto was Naruto; he had a spirit that was too free to be tied down. Naruto hadn't lived the bloody past that Sasuke did, Naruto had NO IDEA what an avenger's live was. Sasuke's only purpose in life was to kill HIM. That dreaded man with the same Bloodline Limit that Sasuke shared. He couldn't and wouldn't tie Naruto down to a goal such as that.

Sasuke was engrossed with his own heartaches, so when he tossed and turned at night under the sanctuary of his bedcovers, he didn't expect another mind to come digging into his. He didn't expect that mind to drag out memories of him and Naruto fighting, kissing, working side by side; of Sakura smiling at him, hugging him, protecting him; or of Kakashi-sensei smiling cockily at him with his one visible eye.

He was completely oblivious to a long tongue sliding out from between ruby lips as a hissing voice whispered, "Soon Uchiha, soon your beautiful body will be mine."

Poor Sasuke-chan is a bit screwed in the head. I just hope he doesn't come off as too OOC.

Ano-sa, Ano-sa, I'm sorry to say that I've only seen up to ep. 74 of the anime but I haven't read the manga, so I don't know what happened after Orochimaru attacked Konoha. Because of this, I will probably alter the time-line a bit. Nothing drastic, I won't change what I know up to the Chunin exams, but to suit the purposes of this story, the Chunin exams passed successfully and both Naruto and Sasuke became Chunins.

XD thanks so much to Native Sakura-san for catching my spelling mistake. >_<;; of all the words to spell wrong…
