Kogane no Roketto

Epilogue to the End

The sound of silence was flowing through the air, as the cold chill of winter tickled the bare tan skin, almost as if it was punishing it for it being bare. With slight words of encouragement the tall, dark, pale figure sighed and leaned back against the tree. It held so many memories.

"I wonder Naruto... what would have happened if we had never met," Itachi questioned himself as he traced along the tree of the Sakura tree. It had been almost a year since that day, and he felt as though nothing had changed.

He sighed deeply watching as his minty breath turned into smoke to the night air. He looked above and stared deeply at the stars, wondering just how Naruto is doing.

Ever since that day Itachi's life has been nothing but true happiness.

There wasn't that pain swelling in his heart.

No throbbing at his emotions.

No barriers around himself.

In all Itachi was back, and his soul mate was there to keep him on the ground. But, occasionally they would float to heaven.

He began walking back to his car feeling the grass beneath his feel crush under him. As he entered the car he fiddled with his neck, feeling the cold, but precious metal against his skin.

He continuously caressed the locket even as he started the car, and the smile never left his face. He was finally proud not to hide behind his facade anymore. Life was nothing but a game to him, and now he truly knew how to play it- only he had a smile on his face.

"Hello," he said into his sleek cell phone.

"Itachi," said the light melody of a voice, "come home please. I'm lonely."

Itachi just chuckled as he replied, "I'll be home soon so don't worry Naruto."

He would have expected Naruto to just laugh and say a smart remark, but the solemnest from his voice proved otherwise.

"Itachi, just come home please."

"What's the matter Naruto? You're not acting like yourself."

"I just... I just. I just want you to come home and just hold me Itachi."

Itachi raised an eyebrow, "I don't get you Naruto. I always come home and hold you."

"But I want you to hold me like you never have before Itachi."

Itachi smiled at the thought of holding Naruto so close. Quickly he snapped out of his trance and replied, "Naruto get dressed for the cold okay. I'll be there soon."

With that done and said Itachi quickly hung up the phone before he could hear any protest from his blond.

Naruto looked outside, his sadness sitting on an elbow. Blue eyes seemingly glowed as the head lights of a slick black car pulled into the drive. Sighing as he got up he opened the door and greeted Itachi with a small smile, and a peck to the lips.

"So how was your day at work Itachi," Naruto asked as he felt a pair of arms encircle around his waist. Warmth entered his cold body as he felt Itachi pull him closer as he resided his head on his chest. His breathing calmed as he listened to the even beats of his love's heart.

"I'm not concerned about me right now Naruto. Come on let's go," he said taking his hands and leading him up the stairs so they could get ready.

As they climbed up the stairs, Itachi noticed Naruto was looking down on the floor, his gaze torn away from his own self. Silent tension was in the air, leering between them waiting to tear them apart.

Itachi and Naruto entered their room, seeing that Naruto was already dressed, the blond took it upon himself to go and lie on the bed. He watched with admiration in his eyes as Itachi took off his suit, watching how his muscles flexed as he put on the long, jet black trench coat. It was almost the same way they would flex when he held Naruto tightly in his grasp, or when he was helping the blond chef cook a dinner.

Or the way they flexed when he was using them to make sweet, passionate love to Naruto.

He got off his bed, blushing a furious shade of red before he began to follow behind his lover.

Large, cold, naked pale hands grasped small, fragile, warm hands; inviting the rest of him to come and join him to skate.

"Naruto," Itachi said, his smooth voice floating in the night air, "remember when you were 11, and we went ice skating?"

Glancing at his right Naruto smiled, "Yes I remember, how could I not? I kept falling on my ass."

Itachi smiled at the crude memory, "Ah, yes you did, but do you remember just who was there to pick you up each time?"

Blue eyes began to gleam, as joy seeped into the, before Naruto let go of Itachi's hand and began to do circles around Itachi. Naruto nodded his head vigorously, like an excited child who just was offered the world's best candy.

"Yes Itachi. It was you, and only you."

Ah, those arms. How he had loved them, especially the way they embraced him from behind, taking them into their protective grasp. He sank into the feeling of being safe, completely captured in the enticing grasp. The way Itachi's heart beat calmed his inside, his cool breath smoothed over any uncertainties, or way their bodies glided in synch helped him let go of the doubts.

"Itachi I'm so sorry, but I think about that day. I feel so horrible about what happened with Ino..."

"Let it go."

"What?"

Itachi stopped slowly, spinning Naruto around to face him. Naruto was caught off guard when his lips were crashed onto cold chapped ones, and all too quickly a raging fire surged through his body and he found himself submitting to the unbearable pleasure that was Itachi. Passion but all leaked in the gallons from Itachi as he pressed their lips harder to his, hearing a mewl of bliss follow soon. Soon Naruto could take no more before his and Itachi's tongues began to dance together in a strong lethal trance. Itachi's arms tightened their hold speaking the langue of love.

Don't worry...

Naruto tried pulling apart for air, but he soon found out that Itachi wasn't through with the exotic attack on his lips. Chills ran up his spine feeling the intensity of those sinful lips, but soon he turned into mush as the europhic bliss raced through his being.

I won't let go...

Itachi drained his last essence as he pulled away from the enticing, and now swollen lips. He looked down, seeing Naruto trying to gather words to have his efforts to be futile with only being able to let out shaky, breaths of muted words.

I will always love you...

"Naruto, just live for me like I lie for you each and every day. Just do that for me please," he pleaded his case to the shaken blond. He gently held his chin, seeing Naruto close his beautiful gem for eyes. Wine colored eyes softened when tears escaped from closed eyes, but it made him all the more beautiful.

He was venerable, open, the very Naruto who had opened his heart and body with open arms to Itachi. Caught in an intimate moment, Itachi kissed every part of Naruto's face. His nose, forehead, cheeks, jaw, hair line, and finally his lips.

He kept giving them chaste kisses, even when they were going towards the ground.

Itachi laid one final kiss on Naruto's right eye before he began to take off their ice skates.

"Live for me because each and every day I live to die with you."

Itachi scooped up Naruto into his arms and began to skate his way to the car, Naruto carrying the other pair of skates in his arms.

"Itachi," Naruto called.

"Yes."

"Will you still love me tomorrow," he asked, his blue eyes downcast. He heard the door open and Itachi placed him down gingerly onto the passenger seat. He looked Naruto deeply in his eyes.

"No Naruto, I'll love you every day until you and I die."

Naruto smiled, feeling a blush arise to his face. Itachi had started the car, and at times he would glance at his left. Naruto had taken out that picture; they had taken so many years ago.

It really was a nice picture, especially when you have someone to share it with.
