When Sasuke opened his eyes, the first thing that he realized was that he was very tired, after somehow making his way to his bed the previous night. And then he remembered last night. Scenes of him thrusting deeply into Naruto and hearing the blonde boy cry out beneath him. He blushed deeply at the thought. I actually fucking did it...WE actually fucking did it. And that son-of-a-bitch Shikamaru was right again.

Glancing over at Naruto on the opposite side of the room, Sasuke could see that idiot was still deep in sleep with his bedsheets tangled and one leg hanging over the side of the bed. And for once he was pretty stumped on how he could actually make conversation, even with someone like Naruto who usually didn't require the least bit of effort. After all, how was he going to bring it up?...So how was last night?

Then again, he wasn't even sure he wanted to bring it up when all he could honestly say was that he liked the guy, and for no apparent reason. Suddenly, there was a loud thud as Naruto fell to the floor off his bed and Sasuke felt his heart jump, wondering if the dobe had woken after the fall. But in usual Naruto fashion, the blonde haired boy was still fast asleep, murmuring sleepily as he accustomed himself to the hard floor and pulled his bedsheets down with him.

Sasuke resisted the urge to smack himself. How could I have fallen for a guy like that? Sighing loudly, he roused and decided to wait and see if Naruto brought it up first. But still, his heart was beating so fast, he didn't how he would get through the day. The simple thought of Naruto screaming at him for doing something so disgusting was enough to send shockwaves of pain though his heart. Was that what love felt like? He'd never cared about anyone else's opinion so much but now Naruto had infiltrated his system so deeply there was no way of recovering.

But then again, he did cry for more sex when we did it...and he seemed to have enjoyed it. Sasuke countered as he brushed his teeth. That couldn't have been a result of the drugs though, could it? It was the same drugs that Juugo had used on him, only it seemed to have been much stronger. But if he had actually enjoyed it, where would they go from there? Without a doubt in his mind, Sasuke knew the sex would be great but he really didn't know anything about Naruto to begin with. Well, except for the fact that he was a stupid idiot who trusted people easily. In the worst case scenario, if Naruto did hate him, he didn't know what he could do except wait for him to get over it so they could move their relationship forward, no matter how long it took.

He heard a load groan from the room as Naruto got up. He saw the blonde boy from the corner of his eye, with his eyes half open, scratching his stomach like it was the same as any other day. Except for the fact that we fucked each other so hard yesterday! Sasuke's mind involuntarily shouted as he watched him.

The blonde continued his usual morning routine, throwing his bedsheets onto his bed in a heap and running his hand through his hair as he figured out where he was. Then he paused for minute before rubbing his lower back and wincing in pain. Sasuke's heart jumped at that small movement, knowing that he was the cause, and quickly turned his eyes away as he washed out his mouth. But he couldn't pretend to ignore the blonde much longer as he could see Naruto walk toward him and pause at the entrance of the bathroom. By this point, his heart was beating so fast, he stood rooted in front of the sink, not moving an inch. He's gonna scream, or hit me or maybe he'll kiss me and tell me how great I am at sex or maybe he'll never want to see me again or he'll probably say that I'm fucking disgusting and a faggot-

'Hey Sasuke, you got any cream for aches or sores? This might sound really weird but my ass hurts so bad and I have no idea why. Is that normal? Has that ever happened to you before?' Naruto asked seriously, leaning against the doorway.

'W-what?' Sasuke choked out, barely able to fathom what was happening.

'I said, do you have any-'

'Y-yeah I know what you said...but..' Sasuke replied slowly, finding his voice again. He gulped. 'You don't remember anything..?'

'Remember what?'

'Last night...'

'Why? Did I drink or something? Man...I can't remember anything from last night...' Naruto replied with a small laugh. Sasuke just stared at him.

'I did, didn't I?' Naruto started, misreading the look on Sasuke's face. 'Oh man...I'm not even twenty yet! You know, I never considered myself a rule breaker, but I guess I can't help-'

By then Sasuke had tuned him out, feeling a new kind of pain swell up in his chest that felt worse than anything he could have imagined. Above all else, he instantly realized, thiswas the worst case scenario. Naruto forgetting.

For some reason, he quickly realized, he actually wanted Naruto to remember every detail of it, because it was their first time together. To Sasuke, it was commemorative, regardless of the unfortunate circumstances they'd done it in. It was the first time he'd ever felt a strong desire to protect someone, to cherish someone and to never let them go. And Naruto forgetting all that was the same as him saying that it was all nothing to him, that what they'd shared was nothing. It would have been better if Naruto had hated him, because then although it would have been over between them, their first time together would have been real. Now, it was just a memory in Sasuke's head, all the feelings he'd felt that night something like a figment of his imagination.

'Sorry but I don't have any fucking cream for your ass, alright?' Sasuke finally snapped in the midst of Naruto's spiel and then roughly pushed past the now shocked boy, wanting nothing more to turn back time.

'Hey wait! Sasuke!' Naruto called after him as the black-haired boy stormed out of their cabin.

He actually fucking forgot. Sasuke thought bitterly, feeling icy wind suddenly blow against his face. And suddenly he realized what an idiot he was, for getting so worked up and ending up in this situation- freezing with only his boxers on, in the middle of winter. But he had too much damn pride to walk back in, so he decided go elsewhere. His first choice would have been Shikamaru, but since that wasn't an option, he decided on the next best thing.

Ah..Fuck! Sasuke cursing as he felt his whole body freezing up, standing in front a cabin that had nearly taken him an hour to find. He knocked on the door loudly, swearing that he would kill the fucker if it took him more than 5 seconds to open it. Thankfully the door was opened within 3 seconds.

'Oh what a nice surprise' A half-naked Sai commented thoughtfully at the sight of Sasuke on his doorstep. 'You really know how to wake one up in the morning, don't you? Looking all sexy like that in only your boxers...am I meant to assume something here? Cause you know, I think I have the same dirty intentions' He winked.

'Just fucking let me in, already' Sasuke grumbled, not in the mood to put up with Sai's usual pointless banter.

'Already nasty this early in the morning?' Sai retaliated, as he let the sour-looking boy in. 'So if it's not sex you want, hurry up and tell me, cause I'm not really interested otherwise'

'Look,' Sasuke said serenely, reminding himself to be polite, 'It's about Naruto...'.

'What about him?' Sai yawned and moved to sit on his bed. He beckoned for Sasuke to join him, which the raven did, reluctantly.

'You know, about last night..'

'What about it?'

'Well..'

'Just spit it out already!' Sai shouted, exasperated.

'Well...Naruto..it's...he fucking forgot about it!' Sasuke shouted back.

'Forgot?'

'Yeah, like, forgot the whole damn thing and now it's like we're back to square one!' Sasuke growled under his breath, holding back his anger.

There was a moment's pause, as Sai gathered what Sasuke meant.

'He actually forgot?' Sai finally said. 'He's so damn cute, like a goldfish' He laughed lightly, before seeing Sasuke's eyes burning with anger. 'But hey,' Sai said immediately, 'You weren't exactly all for getting with him before. I mean, you pretty much had to fuck the guy before you realized you liked him.' He pointed out.

'No, you're wrong' Sasuke countered. 'I had to know how it felt to have him taken from me and almost raped before I realized how I felt! Sex wasn't part of the plan- I had to do it to save him! And I'm sorry If I fucking enjoyed it! I liked putting it up his ass, alright? And I don't care if it makes me gay!' Sasuke cried.

Sai simply stared at him, before smiling a little and clapping, loud and slow. 'Bravo. You finally admitted it.'

Sasuke blushed when he realized what he'd said. 'Well what I mean is...I mean I care a little...it's just that Naruto is...'

'An exception.' Sai finished for him. 'I get it, lover boy. So what do you want me to do?'

'I don't know. Thinking about it more and more, even though it really fucking kills me, maybe it's better this way. To be honest, I'm too afraid to even humor the idea of telling him' Sasuke muttered bitterly.

'Well, if that's how it's going to be, don't worry, I'll keep your secret safe, alright? I mean, if everyone hears that the Uchiha Sasuke is gay...it'll cause an earthquake or something.'

'I'm not gay! I just like Naruto, that's it.' Sasuke grumbled.

'Okay, okay...I got it. Now get out, I gotta get changed.' Sai pushed Sasuke towards the door.

'No wait...there's something else.' Sasuke said quickly.

'What now?'

'I can't stop wanting..to you know...jump Naruto when we're together. And I don't know if I would be able to stop myself' Sasuke confessed, as embarrassing as it was to admit.

Sai smiled, almost evilly. 'Well you know, I'll always be free to help relieve your sexual frustrations.' He whispered, coyly, and moved closer to Sasuke.

Sasuke looked at Sai, warily, but he had no time to reject the offer as he felt an intruding hand move underneath his boxers. 'What the fuck are you doing?!' He cried, and unintentionally shoved Sai. The unsuspecting perpetrator fell to the ground and suddenly, the room was enveloped in silence. Sasuke immediately felt bad, but didn't say anything, opting to look away instead.

'Ow, fuck...' Sai mumbled after a few seconds and got to his feet. He forced a smile, ignoring the slight awkwardness that was now between them. 'It usually works like a charm on Naruto' Sai joked, attempting to break the ice.

There was more silence.

'What?' Sasuke finally breathed, forgetting he was about to apologize. 'You did something to Naruto?' Now he wasn't sorry, just angry to the point of punching Sai.

'It was joke man..I swear I didn't...' Sai began, attempting to save himself.

'Save it. I'll ask Naruto myself. Thanks for nothing.' Sasuke snapped, still seething. He began to walk towards the door before Sai put a hand on his shoulder.

'I'm sorry. I'll give some real advice alright?' He said, softly.

Sasuke sighed loudly, but turned to face Sai, accepting his offer this time.

'Look, trying to get with Naruto is hopeless. He's straight. You and I both know that. What happened yesterday was just the result of whatever Juugo used on him, I mean that guy has some crazy connections. He can get his hands on some weird shit. I suggest you do your best to get over him.' Sai said plainly.

Sasuke looked at him for a couple of seconds. 'Thanks for telling me something I already know.' He said. 'You really hit it home.' He turned towards the door again. 'Oh, and if I hear you say anything about this, I'll fucking castrate you.'

Intending to leave with the last word, Sasuke stalked out.

'Wait Sasuke!' Sai called after him. 'You haven't paid me for my services! A blow job would cover it!' He continued, grinning. He scoffed as he watched Sasuke walk away without so much as a glance back. Although, once the onyx-eyed boy was out of earshot, he muttered something else to himself quietly.

'I'm sorry Sasuke, but even if Naruto was interested in you, I wouldn't let you have him that easily'

Sasuke could still hear Sai calling out after him, as he made his way back to his cabin. 'As if I would do something as disgusting as that.' Sasuke mumbled, as his feet crunched through cold snow. Then he stopped in his tracks. I gave Naruto a blow job...He remembered, shamefully. He could see Naruto naked in his mind again, his cock blushing pink and twitching cutely, waiting for Sasuke to service him. And imaginary Naruto was calling out to Sasuke ever so sexily.

'Sasuke-kun...' Naruto calls lying on his back, his legs up high and wide apart, exposing his sexy pink orifice and erect cock.

Sasuke puts a finger to Naruto's lips. 'Shhh...' He says. 'No talking.' The raven then bends over his partner's member, licking the tip teasingly. He slides his tongue down the underside of Naruto's length, painfully slowly, before reaching his hole. Grinning, he suddenly plunges his tongue inside, relishing in the blonde boy's cries.

'No Sasuke-kun! It's dirty!'

A sudden gust of icy cold wind, almost knocked Sasuke over, and the image vanished. He quickly noticed that he was still standing in the snow, close to fainting, and not too far away from dying. At that realization, he forcefully cleared his mind and hurried back to his cabin. This is not a good start.

'Naruto!' He shouted, knocking on the door. 'It's me. I'm sorry about earlier...' He could hear Naruto's footsteps coming closer, and his heart beat faster with every consecutive step. Finally, the door creaked open.

'Yo! It's cool man. You're PMS-ing or something, right?' Naruto grinned brightly in the doorway, looking as idiotic as ever.

'Only girls PMS, idiot.' Sasuke said bluntly, to cover up the blush that crept over his face. He pushed past Naruto, making every effort not to look at him. Why did Naruto have to be in nothing but a towel at this particular moment?!

'Oh and about that cream I was asking you about earlier...' Naruto started, as he fumbled for clothes in his bag. 'You don't happen to know where I can buy any, do you?'

'Nope, not a clue' Sasuke replied, trying to sound disinterested as he pulled on some clothes. 'But you'd better hurry up and get changed, we're supposed to be down in about ten minutes.'

'Yeah I know, Kiba dropped by. He said something about some girl's school joining us.' Naruto gushed. 'I'm so excited! I mean with your good looks, you could probably score us some hot chicks.'

Sasuke immediately looked at Naruto, hearing that last comment. His ears were burning.

Naruto smiled at him awkwardly. 'No homo.' He said quickly, with his hands up defensively.

'You're such an idiot.'

'What? why? Come on, even you wouldn't pass up the chance.'

'Give me a break' Sasuke replied in annoyance.

Naruto looked at him for a couple of seconds. 'Wait...you are straight..right?' He laughed, nervously.

Sasuke paused for a second. 'Just because I'm straight doesn't mean I'm going to go hunting for girls' He then replied, unflinchingly.

'Don't be such a killjoy, dude!' Naruto exclaimed. 'Come on, we should go now' He said, and they both headed towards the door.

'You know Sasuke, it's great that we're friends now' Naruto said, grinning.

Sasuke stopped walking. 'Who ever said we were friends?' He said, and quickly walked ahead of Naruto. He couldn't let the blonde see his disappointed face.

'Oi don't start being a douche again!' Naruto said, following him out the door.

Sasuke ignored him. I don't think friends go so far as sex. He thought, sourly. I can't believe I've been friend-zoned.
