------------------Note from Shinosuke-----------------

Okay so I was inspired by this one shot yaoi manga thingy.

It was really cool and I kinda thought that I'd like to a SasuNaru

Like that. So here I am, once again starting something new before

I've finished my other fics. –Sighs- I know you all must be sick

Of me by now. You love me though!! xD

---------Disclaimer---------

Yeah so I don't own Naruto, neither do

I make any profit from this. And it might

Also become quite obvious, to those that

Have read it at least, that I was inspired by

A one-shot entitled Escape by Kyuugou.

But hey, this is called fanfiction for a reason.

xD

A Twisted Type of Love

Naruto Uzumaki was a normal high schooler. He got decent grades, excelled in sports, and had a good amount of friends. Other than his lack of parents, he was typical in every aspect. Or at least, in the aspects visible to the public eye. There was one thing, however, that was slightly atypical about his life. And that was a boy named Sasuke Uchiha.

Sasuke Uchiha was the epitome of atypical. He far outshone his peers in both academics and athleticism. He came from a prestigious and rich family. He was calm, aloof, aristocratic and undeniably alluring. But he remained in a darker realm than others.

In a place where few could reach him. And that was just the way he liked it.

Naruto and he had always been rivals and that had evolved into a tentative friendship. And as Sasuke began to sink deeper into his own world he decided that he would take Naruto with him; wherever it was he was headed. He considered the blonde his one true and loyal friend. Not that he'd ever admit it.

It had started when they reached puberty. Sasuke had decided to take advantage of a situation that presented itself. Naruto had flunked a science test. And so he asked Sasuke, his science partner, to tutor him. Nothing special in the least.

They sat in his small apartment living room in a circle of books and worksheets and assignments. At first everything seemed normal. But Sasuke had a plan, he'd been contemplating it for a long time but now, sitting alone with Naruto he finally had the resolve to go through with it. He took a deep breath and turned to Naruto who was frowning over a diagram in the text book.

"Dobe, there's something I've been thinking about. But I'm pretty sure you're too scared to do it… actually, never mind. There's no way you could handle it." Sasuke said suddenly. He had always been good at manipulating people. And Naruto was always easy to control.

"Eh!! No way Sasuke-teme! I can take it!" Naruto said indignantly.

Sasuke smiled to himself internally, "Is that so? Are you sure? You can't back out once you agree."

"Of course!" Naruto continued with growing enthusiasm.

Sasuke took a deep breath and leaned forward until he was only inches from the blonde. "Kiss me." He breathed.

Naruto was caught off guard. What the hell? What was Sasuke up to?

"What? Where the hell did that come from!?" Naruto said instantly trying to put some much needed space between them.

Sasuke gave a satisfied, "Hn. I knew you couldn't do it."

Naruto found himself blushing, and not just from the thought of kissing Sasuke. He always came second place to Sasuke in everything they did. It'd been a sore spot for him for a while. He didn't want Sasuke to think he was a coward. But kiss him? Really?

Naruto bit his lip, "One kiss…" he muttered.

At first Sasuke was a little surprised. He'd expected to have to do a little more coercing than that. But he smirked at his victory.

"Only one?" he asked as if challenging Naruto to more.

But Naruto was steadfast. Even at this time Sasuke had a reputation. He wasn't loose. But he was most definitely … "experienced". That is, if the rumors could be trusted. And Naruto knew that Sasuke had always been a just a little off from the normal. Not quite crazy enough to be insane, but not sane enough to be normal. Naruto tried to be cautious when dealing with Sasuke. And if allowed more than one kiss…

Would Sasuke expect more? Was Sasuke doing this simply to satisfy some lewd curiosity his? And if he was honest with himself, Naruto had to admit he was curious too.

"Just one." He replied as firmly as he could manage.

Sasuke shrugged as though it didn't matter to him. And in reality, it almost didn't. Sasuke knew what he wanted from the blond. And whatever Sasuke wanted, he got. It didn't matter what Naruto consented to. Sasuke wanted way more than just a kiss. And he would get it. Whether Naruto liked it or not.

Naruto stared with wary eyes as Sasuke crept in close to him. Sasuke was eyeing him hungrily, and it made him shiver. He was nervous. It would be his first kiss. His stomach did a few nervous flip flops as Sasuke leaned in, their noses almost touching, their breath mingling in the few inches of space between their faces.

Naruto now regretted agreeing. Naruto knew that he should never trust the Uchiha prodigy. If he let his guard down, for even one moment, it would be so easy for him to be tricked into something like this. And that's how he felt now. Tricked, trapped. And scared. Scared because he felt so inexperienced next to Sasuke. Scared because he still couldn't even fathom what any of this meant. Scared because he knew he was delving too deep into something he might not be able to get out of. And most of all, scared because he wanted it.

Sasuke's hand moved up to rest gently upon Naruto's cheek, his thumb caressing the light whisker marks there. His hand then moved down, sliding down his jaw line, past his ear and slithering into the hair at the back of his neck holding him still.

Naruto swallowed nervously. All this time Sasuke had kept direct eye contact with him. And he was having a hard time concentrating while those onyx eyes stared deep into his own. Sasuke's eyes were so dark. Completely black. As mysterious as the midnight sky. They were beautiful but slightly frightening. If Naruto had to guess what color the devil's eyes would be, he would have guessed it would be a similar shade as this. And yet they were so enticing, drawing him in.

Why was it taking so damn long? Couldn't Sasuke just hurry and get this over with? Naruto felt a shiver go down his spine. He wasn't sure whether it was from anticipation or fear. And as Sasuke's lips leaned in and brushed his he suddenly didn't care.

Naruto's thoughts exploded into nothingness as pink lips slowly moved against his own. It was amazing. And his head felt so light, like he was floating, spinning out in space. It was so gentle, so sweet and lingering. Naruto hadn't expected this.

And then Sasuke bit harshly at his bottom lip and he was dragged firmly and almost painfully back into reality. It wasn't love. It wasn't floating. It was only lust. It was only physical. Sasuke worked the blonde's lax mouth open and slipped in his tongue.

Naruto immediately began to panic. Despite the pleasant sensation of Sasuke's hot wet muscle moving against his own he knew that this was going too far. That he couldn't allow another moment. And yet suddenly he was entirely paralyzed.

Sasuke smirked against the soft lips of his friend and finally broke the kiss pushing Naruto down hard and straddling him. Naruto tried to sit up but was held down by the boy above him. The look on Sasuke's face was strange. And it filled him with a feeling of dread that he didn't understand. With new found vigor Naruto once again tried to right himself and push the older boy off of him but Sasuke was firm.

One of Sasuke's pale hands traveled up Naruto's shirt. And Naruto's eyes widened almost comically. This was no joke, nor was it a game. And panic consumed him.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing! It's supposed to just be one kiss you perv-" but Naruto's words were stifled by another mind reeling kiss from the raven haired boy on top of him.

They were thirteen; Naruto knew plenty about sex by then. He was not a stranger to it in the least… But knowing and doing are two separate things. And with another boy? To actually… go all the way?

"Sasuke… stop… I don't want to go out with you."

Naruto watched as black eyes opened and stared down at him harshly, "Who said anything about going out with each other?"

"B-but…If that's not what you want then…what…"

"Sex, dobe. Or are you really that slow? This will be much better than jerking off. We're friends, right? Consider us…friends with benefits."

Before he could object Naruto's lips were once again plundered by the insistent Uchiha above him. And he found himself giving in much too easily. He didn't push the boy away but found the urge to pull him closer almost too much to bear. He didn't refuse the boys lips, but found himself kissing back with just as much fervor.

As pale hands began to wander his body, Naruto stiffened. He wasn't sure about this in the least, and he knew that he should be. That he should wait until he was sure this was what he wanted. But if there is one truth in this world it is that hormonal bodies react to each other in any circumstances. And Naruto found that he was now unable to stop what his friend had started.

Sasuke was very firm with the blonde below him. This was not for love. That much was sure. They were rivals, yes. Friends, yes. But lovers? Absolutely not. That was an indisputable fact. Sasuke and Naruto did not love each other. And they soon completely stopped kissing each other finding that only the pleasure that could be attained from the nether regions would satisfy them.

They did not face each other. And they didn't whisper loving things to one another. They did not worry about the pleasure of the other but only about themselves. So Sasuke did not think very much over preparation of the blonde adolescent as he flipped him and pulled him to his knees.

Naruto knelt on his elbows and knees, rubbing himself through his pants and stifling his groans. Sasuke quickly and callously pulled down both of their pants before examining the small entrance Naruto had. He wondered briefly if he would fit without hurting the boy. But then he realized, he didn't really care.

He thrust his two fore fingers into the mouth of the slightly younger boy and ordered him to suck in a rough and needy voice. Naruto obeyed swirling his tongue around the invading digits. It wasn't enthusiastically, but it wasn't hesitantly either. He simply obeyed.

Sasuke pulled his hand away quickly and wasted no time in penetrating the taut flesh. Naruto cried out instantly. It was uncomfortable, but not quite painful. Not yet, at least.

Sasuke spared only a few moments to stretch the virgin portal, scissoring his fingers in and out of the boy until Naruto began to thrust his hips back for more of the now pleasant stimulation. His hands fisted the science homework strewn across the floor and he could see the open text book to his right, all of this effectively ruined the atmosphere for him. But his throbbing organ could care less about atmosphere. He wanted release. That was all he could think of. And he wanted the sweet and burning ecstasy that would come with that release.

Sasuke, in a similar state of unfettered desire for completion, suddenly removed his probing fingers. Naruto groaned at the loss but that was quickly replaced with a wide-eyed whimper as Sasuke brutally began to thrust to gain entrance. He called out for him to stop. But Sasuke, though he heard the blonde's cries, was too far gone. And even just the erotic view of seeing his cock plunged into the tight ring of muscle was enough to affirm that fact. He couldn't stop now.

Sasuke grabbed his friend's hips and pulled his body to him with every thrust. Naruto had been wondering how he'd ever found the sensation of anything entering him pleasing when for the first time, Sasuke struck his prostate.

He tightened and groaned as a wave of pain and pleasure rumbled through his entire body. Sasuke groaned as well, enjoying Naruto's tightening. His pace began to pick up.

They continued on this way, each of them coming up with their own internal fantasies. Each of them enjoying the new and yet strangely familiar pleasure of sex.

It was their first time, so it was a little awkward, a little strained. They still did not know exactly what they were doing, but they knew enough to pleasure themselves. It was simply a new version of masturbation, only now they used the tools available to them. The tools that were each others bodies.

It was a love that was flesh deep and nothing more. The love of being pleasured that brought to moans forward from their throats. Naruto was the first to realize he couldn't last much longer. His hand had been furiously pumping his erection for some time and he couldn't hold it for another moment.

"S-Sasuke… I…Ahh! Cumming!"

His slick fist hurriedly brought him the last surges of pleasure before he cried out and shot his young seed into his hand. Sasuke had been completely unprepared for the rhythmic undulations and clenching of Naruto's muscles as he came. And he was unable to continue. His moan was cut off from the tightening of his throat as he too came heavily.

They stayed like that for a protracted amount of time, heaving breath and sweating bodies, before they collapsed. Sasuke pulled out rolling away from the other boy as they both desperately tried to regain some amount of coherent thought process and function.

"I'm…. gonna take a shower." Sasuke muttered as he stood on shaky legs.

Naruto nodded as he lay curled on his side, Sasuke's cum dripping down his leg. Now that his mind was cleared of lust, he felt guilty for having indulged the Uchiha. He wasn't sure if he should do it again. Or if he even could. He thought about it for a long while. Days in fact. The hours ticking by slowly as he thought about the event over and over. The feeling of Sasuke's skin… the heat of his orgasm… the memories haunted him, followed him everywhere he went. But somehow, it wasn't exactly unpleasant.

He couldn't understand it all. Why it felt wrong in his heart but good in his body. Eventually he asked Sasuke whether or not it would be right for them to do it again. And Sasuke finally addressed the matter fully.

"It's nothing. It's just sex. There's no feeling behind it. It's just like using your hand. No commitment. No worries. Okay?" Sasuke said as he spoke to Naruto in the hall of their middle school.

"But… I'm a boy and everything so…"

"That makes it easier, dobe. I can be as rough with you as I want; you never get hurt easily. And I can cum inside you with no worries over the consequences. You act like this isn't normal. Plenty of men have sex with each other."

"Uhmm… yeah. But still, doesn't it seem a little, I don't know, wrong?" Naruto replied blushing and looking down.

"Not to me."

"Right… Will we… ever do it again?"

"Yeah." Sasuke replied coolly.

He didn't mention that the blonde's consent was necessary. Because in his eyes, it almost wasn't. Not only that, but he felt that if he'd offered that as a stipulation he would end up being refused. So he said it with the arrogance that had been bred into him from a young age. He said it with a firm and resolute tone that would lead Naruto to believe that this fact was irrefutable. Yes, they would do it again. End of story.

And they did. Many times over.

So Naruto knew exactly what to expect, now three years later as he walked to the Uchiha estate. They'd been doing this for what seemed forever. They used each other as objects of pleasure rather than people. Not for love, but for whenever their bodies wanted it. And being that they were teenage boys, that was pretty often.

He sighed dramatically as he knocked on the heavy door. It was answered by a butler or something. He quickly offered his thanks to the silent man and took off his shoes before padding down the long hallways to the room of his not quite lover.

He was a frequent guest here. But Sasuke's parents cared very little about his attitude and actions. Naruto had at first been amazed at the amount of freedom the boy had. And then he realized that it wasn't that his parents were giving him freedom. But rather, they were ignoring him. Completely and totally.

Naruto slid open the door and saw Sasuke lying on his bed staring at the ceiling and smoking.

"You're late, Dobe."

"I had to cover Haku's shift at the restaurant." Naruto sighed as he fully entered the room and closed the door behind him, "And you know I hate when you smoke."

"Like I give a fuck." Sasuke retorted coldly.

The blond dropped his school bag and sat on the ground resting against Sasuke's bed and sighing heavily. Sasuke sat up putting his cigarette out in a small black ashtray that had the Uchiha crest in the center of the shallow basin.

Naruto had at first marveled at the changes in his friend. Everyone thought it must only be some sort of teenage rebellion. The black clothes, the bad attitude, and then the piercings and cigarettes. The younger Uchiha's little rebellion, people had joked.

But even if Naruto did not know the actual cause, he knew that it was not simple teenage rebellion. But the few times he'd asked he'd been insulted and sent home. So he just dropped it. It wasn't like it really mattered. It was Sasuke's business, not his.

Sasuke lithely crawled from his bed and sat next to Naruto. He stared at the blonde intensely for a moment while Naruto simply, and actually, rather boredly gazed back.

Sasuke wrapped an arm around Naruto's shoulders and leaned in to kiss his neck gently.

Naruto shuddered slightly but accepted it. This was about the only affection they showed each other. They hadn't once kissed each others lips since they were thirteen. They weren't interested in each other. Only in sex.

Sasuke had made that very clear to Naruto many times. And yet… sometimes…

"Did you lock the door?" Sasuke muttered against his skin.

"Yeah…"

And that was all the affirmation Sasuke needed. Naruto found himself being pushed down onto the floor and flipped face down. They didn't look at each other. Because faces didn't matter in something like this.

Xx--XxX--xX

There was a new transfer student. He sat next to Naruto in English class. Naruto grinned benignly. Open and friendly as he always was. And the red head stared at him for a moment before letting his lips curve into a tentative smile and turning away.

"So class. This semester you're going to be doing a project on one of the greatest writers of all time." The teacher excitedly began, "One of my personal favorites, Shakespeare!"

The class gave a collective groan.

"Oh, don't be like that. There's always something to learn from his plays and his poems." She said her voice still far off and romantic before it settled into a more harsh tone, "And you'll do it for the grade whether you like it or not."

Naruto sighed rubbing the back of his head. Stupid Shakespeare… he remembered reading it freshman year. It had been stupid and confusing and pointless. He hadn't liked it at all.

"Now I know you've already read some of his plays previously, but we're going to do a little refresher and then go over some of his other works. It will be fun!"

"Only if fun is a synonym for torture…" Naruto muttered under his breath.

The boy next to him chuckled a little.

Naruto looked up; he hadn't thought that the pale, rather unexcitable youth beside him was paying him any attention at all. And now that he had a closer look he found that he was particularly taken with his appearance.

His skin was almost shining in its pallor. His hair was a dark red, almost burgundy. His eyes were pale green. And he was over all just rather good looking in Naruto's book. So he decided to make friends with him. Simple as that.

"If you'll take out your text books and turn to-"

"Hey." Naruto whispered at the boy next to him, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto; it's nice to meet you." He said offering his hand under the table.

The boy turned and looked at him again, his face was blank. At first Naruto thought he was being rude and was about to say something rude in response before he felt a slightly smaller pale hand slip into his own.

"Gaara." The other boy whispered, "Nice to meet you as well."

Naruto grinned a bit. And the other boy struggled to return the gesture, though it was obvious he wasn't one for smiling.

"-may sometimes have a long monologue that in Shakespearian literature is referred to as a… Mr. Uzumaki?"

"Uhhhh…" Naruto struggled. He hadn't even heard the entire question.

"A soliloquy." Gaara muttered to him slyly.

Naruto repeated the answer and the teacher wrinkled her nose a little as if she was slightly put out that he'd been correct. She turned on her heel and quickly continued her little lecture.

"Thanks man." Naruto whispered at the redhead who nodded with a very small smile and a tiny bit of tint rising to his cheeks.

As class ended, Naruto collected his schoolbag and stood wincing slightly. He was still a little tender from last night's proceedings…

"So… Gaara, right?" he said keeping a friendly smile up.

"Yes."

"How 'bout you eat lunch with me?"

The new boy looked slightly taken aback. He even blushed a little again. And Naruto found himself smiling at the boy's obvious shy hesitance.

"Umm, sure."

"Good." Naruto replied grabbing the boy's forearm and near dragging him to the lunch room.

Upon entering not many people really noticed, the world didn't revolve around Naruto and his new friend. But still, much to Gaara's embarrassment, more than a few people stared in their direction.

He felt himself growing tense from the eyes that were sizing him up. But the comfort of the outgoing blonde in front of him was enough to keep his face calm. A pink haired girl skipped up to them.

"Did you finish your history homework?" she asked Naruto with a smile as she followed them in line for food.

Naruto blushed a little and rubbed the back of his head, "We had history homework?"

The girl's face settled into stern disapproval of Naruto's negligent study habits. "Baka. It's worth 200 points."

"Eh!!" Naruto asked in shock, "Let me copy! Please, please, please" he began to beg in earnest.

"Nope. Your own fault for being slacker." The girl responded as she moved with her lunch tray towards one of the tables.

Naruto went after her and Gaara stalled a bit, unsure of what to do.

"Come on." Naruto said with a smile.

The redhead nodded following behind.

"Sorry, sorry." The girl said turning to Gaara with a smile, "I'm Haruno Sakura. I almost forgot to introduce myself. I was too busy scolding this idiot."

"I'm not an idiot-" Naruto said from her side.

"Save it for someone who cares." The girl replied not even bothering to look at the blonde but continuing to smile at Gaara.

Gaara found her smile with harsh words was rather disconcerting. But he continued with them towards a table that already was almost completely full.

Naruto motioned for him to sit next to him and Gaara did so quickly and quietly. He knew that he would have to be introduced to these people. And he wasn't exactly looking forward to it.

"Ah, Everyone. This is Gaara." Naruto said opening his soda can with a click.

Everyone smiled politely and said their hellos. Gaara internally grimaced at having agreed to this. He sank a little in his chair not quite enjoying the attention he was receiving.

"This is, Lee, Neji, Shikamaru, Hinata, Ino, Haku" Naruto paused for a moment, "and that bastard is Sasuke." he jibbed.

The dark haired and dark eyed boy glared at Naruto for his comment before silently turning his harsh gaze on the new kid.

'The bastard' as Naruto had referred to him cast a disapproving look at Gaara. And Gaara felt a little uneasy. He most certainly didn't seem friendly… He had two piercings on his left eyebrow and countless others along his ears, from what Gaara could see. And he glared like he already hated him. This Sasuke person seemed like someone he would most likely never get along with.

But Haku, whoever he or… maybe even she was had most certainly caught his eye. His skin looked very soft and his features were delicate and beautiful. His soft chocolate brown eyes were kind and almost… well… sparkled. Gaara had never seen such a person before. Even the exuberant blonde beside him paled in comparison.

**And his smile is pleasant**, Gaara noted before looking away.

"So, Naruto is officially flunking history." Sakura announced with a smile.

"Am not!"

"Are too."

"Ahaha, baka. I knew you couldn't pass an AP class." Ino said sticking out her tongue and pulling down at her right eye.

"Ah… b-but I'm sure he can still pass…" Hinata mumbled.

And the lunch time conversation continued. At first Gaara was hardly able to keep up.

But he slowly fell into the rhythm of things, his first impressions of these people settling in.

At one point, Sasuke pulled a pack of cigarettes from his front pocket and lit one putting it to his lips.

"Sasuke-teme, you're gonna get in trouble." Naruto whispered leaning forward.

No sooner had he said this did a teacher walk up behind him.

"Mr. Uchiha, may I ask exactly what you think you're doing."

The boy tilted his head back to look up at the teacher before blowing the smoke right into his face and answering coldly, "Smoking."

The teacher wrinkled his nose from the smoke, "Well I can tell you enjoy stating the obvious but I'm going to have to ask you to first, put that out and second, go see the Dean."

Sasuke stood pushing his chair out harshly and dropping his cigarette into the teacher's cup of coffee before stalking off. The teacher tailed him lecturing the whole way. Gaara hadn't realized that he was the only one watching in silent disbelief.

"…wow…" He muttered.

What a stupid thing to do… You'd think he almost wanted to get in trouble.

"Ah don't worry about it." Naruto said clapping him on the back, "He just likes to pretend he's a badass."

Gaara nodded not quite sure what to say in response. The rest of the table seemed completely unfazed. Their conversation quickly picked back up.

Gaara found himself curious about this Sasuke person. He seemed distant and cold and he was sure that if anyone but Naruto had called him a bastard they would have gotten more than a dirty look. It was a puzzle that he would have liked to figure out. But it wasn't a necessity. For now he would ignore Sasuke, much as Sasuke had ignored him.

Naruto was happy that everyone had seemed to like Gaara as much as he had. Except for Sasuke of course. But that was only to be expected. Sasuke didn't like new things and he didn't trust new people. Naruto had known that would be the case.

He sighed heavily as the bell rang signaling the end of his favorite period. He stood and offered to walk Gaara to his next class if he didn't know where it was. The redhead smiled and accepted the offer walking with him and few others down the halls.

As Naruto turned to leave him he smiled again and he saw the flash of Gaara's blush. Things had suddenly gotten very interesting. And he wondered only briefly what the future held. Naruto was not one to worry over the future or constantly think back on the past. Whatever will be, will be. And that's all he thought.

Though in hindsight, he wished he'd prepared just a little more, for the turn of events that would follow.
