Drabble #1 - 'The Lost Hat'
This one takes place either the night after 'Come Home With Me' ended or not long after.
-----------------------
"Dobe, stop moving around so much."
Naruto shivered at Sasuke's sultry words when the Uchiha's breath tickled his inner ear. "Well, I'm sorry, but this is kinda uncomfortable." The blond whined.
Sasuke sighed, causing the hair on the back of Naruto's neck to ruffle. "What part, my arm or leg?"
"Your leg's fine, just don't go all pervy on me, we're supposed to be sleeping. But laying on your arm kinda hurts. Isn't it uncomfortable for you?"
"Slightly, but I'll live. Here let's try this."
There was slight movement as the two occupants on the bad shifted. A few grunts and 'watch where you put your leg' later the movement settled. In the end, Sasuke still had his arm under his blond, but instead of it lying under Naruto's chest, it was tucked into the crook of his armpit.
"Better?"
"Mmm, yep." Naruto snuggled back into Sasuke's chest as the Uchiha wrapped his other arm around the blond's chest. He still had a leg between Naruto's and he sighed in contentment, his face nuzzled into the back of his blond's neck. A few seconds later a heavy sigh escaped the blond's lips.
"What now, dobe?"
Naruto mumbled something that Sasuke couldn't quite understand despite the close proximity.
"Speak up, Naruto."
"I miss my hat, okay?"
Sasuke blinked at the blond spikes on the back of Naruto's head in
confusion. Hat, what hat?
To say that Sasuke was confused would be an understatement. And
Uchiha's don't like to be confused. Sasuke scrunched up his face in
annoyance.
"What are you blabbering about?" Sasuke demanded.
"My hat that I used to sleep in, alright!" Sasuke sat up and frowned at the blond. He noticed how Naruto was blushing and even though it made him look enticingly cute, Sasuke ignored it. He actually slept with a hat on? How childish is he . . . Suddenly, Sasuke remembered the gray walrus looking cap he had seen in Naruto's bedroom a while back.
"You have got to be kidding me." Naruto's blue eyes shot to Sasuke's face, and he reddened even more before looking away. "Good God, dobe, don't tell me you still sleep with that thing?"
"Noooo, but it was the only thing from my childhood. Sandaime gave me a little allowance every week. Not much, but I saved up for months to buy that. And I remember how the shopkeeper was actually nice to me even though I came by every day to look at it."
Sasuke laid down, suddenly too tired to keep the conversation up. Pulling the blond farther into his embrace, Sasuke wondered what life had been like for his blond while growing up. The Uchiha hadn't really thought about the financial aspect of being an orphan, what reason did he have to? But now he had a reason – the blond teen in his arms. Sasuke sighed before burying his face into the back of Naruto's neck.
"Just go to sleep, dobe."
---------------------------
A soft tinkling sound announced the arrival of a customer. The shopkeeper, a rather large man with more hair in his mustache then on the top of his head, walked out of the back room to see who had arrived.
"Ahh, hello, Uchiha-san! How may I help you?" The man asked with a toothy grin.
Sasuke stared blankly at the old man and tried to convince himself that he wasn't blushing. The dark haired teen shook his head and turned back to looking through the products. He wasn't in the mood to prolong this shopping experience but he was less inclined to ask the shopkeeper for help. It took the Uchiha only 4 minutes to locate his target and walk up to the check out. Sasuke kept his eyes down as the older man rung up the purchase.
"Is that all?" Sasuke glanced up at the shopkeeper and felt his face flame more. "Here, maybe you'll like this."
Sasuke watched a little dumbly as the man walked off into the back room before coming back. The Uchiha felt his fight or flight response kick in with the emphasis on 'flight.' In the man's hand was a medium sized fox plushy. It had a soft looking orange pelt and black sparkly eyes. Sasuke panicked slightly. Buying Naruto a plushy was a little more then he had anticipated. But Naruto did buy him a book.
"I think Uzumaki-kun might like this." The shopkeeper handed over the stuffed animal and Sasuke took it, noting that it was in fact very soft. Then what the shopkeeper said hit him like a ton of bricks and his eyes widened on the old man's face. How the hell does he know I'm buying this for Naruto?!
"Don't tell him this, but all those years ago I saved one of those caps in the back, just for him. I knew he'd find away to get it, he always struck me as a determined little thing."
"Err, thanks." Sasuke handed over some money once the shopkeeper had given him a total. With another 'thanks' Sasuke left with his purchases and firmly ignored the knowing grin on the old man's face. He wondered if everyone in the village knew Naruto and him were in a relationship.
"Hello, Sasuke-kun." The Uchiha had made it less then 10 feet from the shop's entrance when he heard his name; turning towards the voice, he met raging milk colored eyes.
"Hinata." Sasuke said simply, unsure as to what he should say.
"You cheated on Naruto-kun." Hinata's words dripped with disdain, and Sasuke was surprised that this was the same stuttering girl from not so long ago. Apparently getting engaged had been good for her and bad for Sasuke.
"I did no such thing." Sasuke frowned at the younger woman.
"I saw you on your date with that . . . that woman." Oh, that, Sasuke thought.
"Listen, that was Naruto's idea, and it's not likely to happen again." Sasuke wasn't sure why he was explaining himself to the woman in front of him, but he explained nonetheless. Too bad for him it didn't appear that it appeased Hinata.
"Just because it was Naruto-kun's idea doesn't mean you had to go along with it. Naruto-kun wants to be happy but doesn't know how to go about getting it, you have-"
"Please Hinata, I know." Sasuke cut of the Hyuuga heir and held his hands up in front of him as a sign of defeat. He really didn't want to think on Naruto's psychological and emotional issues right then, he'd been thinking on them for what felt like forever.
Hinata looked like she wanted to argue some more but the bag in his hand caught her eye. Realizing his mistake, Sasuke tried to hide the bag behind his back, but Hinata had gotten a hold of the plastic bag.
"What?" Hinata pulled the fox plushy out and held it up to look at. Her pale eyes went wide, and she looked from the stuffed animal to Sasuke and then back again. Then she did something that mortified the Uchiha – she giggled.
"Naruto is fine." Sasuke pried the orange animal out of the woman's hands and stuffed it back into the bag. "Everything is fine, but thank you for your concern, Hinata." The Uchiha said the last part through gritted teeth and Hinata continued to giggle. Without a backward glance, Sasuke stalked back towards to Uchiha complex.
------------------------
"Tadaima!" Sasuke winced the moment the word was out of his mouth. He sounded like a husband coming home to his wife. All he needed now was for Naruto to yell back that he was in the kitchen. Except there was no response.
Sasuke frowned and stepped into his house slippers before moving to the kitchen, his heart rate going up in nervousness. When he didn't see the blond in there, he moved back towards their bedroom. Sure enough, he found his blond sprawled out on the large bed, snoring. Naruto was shirtless, wearing only some loose pants. His blond hair was still damp, so Sasuke figured he had taken a shower before passing out. Though part of him was tempted to let Naruto be, the other part was still fuming from being thoroughly embarrassed. And he knew it wasn't going to end now that Hinata had seen his purchases.
"Oi! Dobe!" Sasuke smacked Naruto upside the head, which earned him a sleepy grunt before Naruto rolled over, presenting his back to the Uchiha. It also presented the dark haired man with a great view of Naruto's butt. One of Sasuke's dark eyebrows rose as naughty thoughts assaulted his mind. Shrugging, Sasuke decided Naruto owed him something for guilting him into going out to buy that stupid cap anyways.
Sasuke crawled onto the bed until he was hovering over Naruto's sleeping form. He dropped the bag he was still carrying over the side of the bed before leaning down and nuzzling Naruto's neck. Sasuke sniffed at the tan skin before licking it. Smirking, Sasuke ran his tongue up his blond's throat until he gripped an earlobe in his teeth. The entire time the scent of jasmine filled his nostrils, leaving a teasing tingle on his skin. He wondered when Naruto was going to figure out that he specifically kept jasmine scented shampoo in the bathroom for the blond to use.
Naruto sighed in his sleep and turned his head towards the dark haired man. Sasuke took the hint and brushed his mouth against Naruto's plump lips before settling down for a thorough kiss. His tongue slipped easily into the blond's mouth and swept over Naruto's tongue. Tilting his head slightly, he deepened the kiss and began sucking Naruto's tongue into his own mouth. Sasuke pulled back a little, becoming mesmerized by the thin line of saliva that still connected his mouth to the other teen's.
"Why are you molesting me in my sleep?" Naruto's voice broke through Sasuke's fuzzled mind, and his eyes narrowed as Naruto opened his eyes. Blue eyes twinkled mischeviously up at the Uchiha.
"You weren't asleep." It wasn't really an observation more of an
accusation. Naruto grinned.
"I was until you got on the bed. What did you drop on the floor?" Naruto rolled until he was on his back again and continued to grin at his boyfriend.
"They were presents for you, but now I'm tempted to take them back." Sasuke scowled at the blond before sitting back on his heels.
"You got me presents?" Naruto's blue eyes went wide before he attempted to blind the Uchiha with a dazzling smile. "Yeah!" The blond threw himself at the other boy, which knocked Sasuke over and onto his back.
"You haven't even looked at them." Sasuke pointed out as he rolled his eyes.
Naruto shrugged but got up anyways. Crawling to the edge of the bed, he reached down and snagged the bag. Sitting back against the headboard, the blond pulled out the first item, which just happened to be the larger of the two – the stuffed fox. A blond eyebrow rose as he looked at the fox and then at the Uchiha.
"You definitely like to give me things fox related, don't you?" Naruto smirked as Sasuke turned bright red.
"Hey, the shopkeeper is the one who thought you'd like it, I said nothing." Sasuke looked away, thoroughly pissed that he was getting mortified for the second time that day.
"Ahh, so you were traumatized, as well. That only makes it that much
better!" The blond proceeded to start laughing at the indignation painted plainly on Sasuke's face.
"Moron." Sasuke muttered.
Naruto decided to keep his retort to himself, after all the Uchiha wasn't being much of a bastard at the moment. Reaching into the bag, Naruto pulled out the cap. A few seconds went by as the blond looked at the walrus sleeping hat. Sasuke eyed his blond warily as if he was afraid Naruto would burst into tears at any moment. But even though Naruto's blue eyes welled up with tears, he didn't shed them. Silently Naruto crawled over to the Uchiha and gave him the most intense kiss Sasuke had ever gotten. A few seconds later, and completely breathless, Naruto pulled back.
"Thank you, Sasuke." The Uchiha's already red face actually got brighter, and he looked away as he muttered a quiet 'whatever.'
"You are so getting a blow job for this."
Sasuke's head whipped around and his eyes rounded in absolute shock. Though producing very erotic images that was neither what Sasuke had been going for nor expecting. When Naruto's face split into a large grin, Sasuke knew Naruto had just said that to be annoying. Sasuke firmly ignored the disappointment that raced through his body and glared at his boyfriend.
"It's not nice to tease, dobe."

The End.
