"I have to go talk to my family, they're gonna want to know where I've been. Come find me later?" Sasuke stood off his lap, helping him up.

Naruto nodded, kissing his cheek. "I might go home, but I'll let you know if I do. Don't go cheating on me and kissing other people, pretty baby, okay?"

Sasuke smiled. "I'm not. You think I'd kiss someone after I just had your dick in my mouth? You came on my tongue, Naruto; I'm not gonna go kissing other people."

The blond snickered, throwing his arm around Sasuke. "Maybe I'll have to make it so more often."

"Shut up," he laughed, pushing him away. Naruto didn't let it last long, pulling Sasuke closer again. "You're so nasty."

The smile on Naruto's face didn't falter, even for a second. There's absolutely nothing that could ever take this from him. Not how he felt in that moment.

Naruto tightened his hold on Sasuke, feeling the warmth of his body against his own. The joy bubbling inside him was almost too much to contain. He buried his face in Sasuke's shoulder, breathing in the familiar scent that always brought him comfort.

"You have no idea how I feel right now," Naruto murmured, his voice muffled against Sasuke's shirt. He was feeling a lot. It was a strong mix of possessiveness—a desire to finally have Sasuke to himself now that he's given him a sort of green light— happiness, excitement, and he was even slightly horny still. Don't get him wrong, he felt gross and kind of sticky, but he couldn't care less about that.

He kissed his neck softly. "I've waited so long to hear you say that."

Sasuke's fingers found their way into Naruto's hair, gently massaging his scalp, stopping for a moment to enjoy it. "I know," he replied softly. "I should have told you sooner... I just... yeah."

Naruto pulled back just enough to look into Sasuke's eyes, the sparkle of joy reflecting back at him. "It doesn't matter now," he said. "You said it, and that's all that matters. And you are never fucking taking it back. Sasuke, I swear to God, I will do very bad things if you try to take it back."

Sasuke's arm went around him to pull him into a hug, burying his face in his chest. They stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, the world around them fading into the background. Naruto's heart swelled with a happiness so untouchable it was almost overwhelming. For the first time, he felt like everything was perfect, like he was exactly where he was meant to be.

"You're mine now, yeah? Only mine?" Naruto whispered, a playful grin tugging at his lips.

Sasuke smirked, his eyes softening. "I've always been yours, idiot."

Naruto laughed, the sound light and carefree, a perfect match for the joy that filled his heart. "And I always will be," he promised, sealing his words with a gentle kiss.

Naruto grinned as he pulled Sasuke's lip into his teeth, biting it. "No more fucking flirting with other guys, okay?"

The blond watched fixedly as Sasuke dragged the lip into his mouth, his tongue lapping against it to check for blood. "Don't be mean, you know you love it," he teased, his hand shooting up to Naruto's neck to pull him down into another kiss.

"But—" Naruto was interrupted by the sensation of Sasuke's tongue against his own and memories of their recents acts had blood rushing back to his dick. Fuck. Sasuke's gonna kill him.

"Only yours," the Uchiha breathed into the kiss, a tug on his mouth as he guided one of Naruto's hands to his ass.

Naruto's head reeled at the words. Fuck. Sasuke says just the right things to get locked up for the rest of his life. What if Naruto didn't have this self control? What if he was as impulsive and dog-like as Sasuke said he was? Dog's are possessive, are they not? They want their owner all to themselves. But Naruto was allowing Sasuke to be his own person outside of him.

For the most part. But that's not important.

"You gonna stay with me tonight?" Naruto asked, his voice quieter than before.

"Uhm, if anything, just until morning because tomorrow's my actual birthday and everything so my family wants to do something and have cake. Small little get together. You're invited, obviously, but yeah." He shrugged, pulling back from the kiss to look at him.

Sasuke smiled softly, his hand resting on Naruto's face. "You wanna come home with me instead, baby?"

Naruto was easy to read when it came to Sasuke. Or at least Sasuke thought so. However, the look on Naruto's face right now was in fact not easy to read. His eyes were entirely glossed over yet Sasuke could tell that he was there, thoughts racing behind those maya blue eyes, a gentle smile on his mouth. "Wanna go home with you... Want nothing more than that."

"Okay, then that's what'll happen." He placed a final kiss on his lips and could see the emotional turmoil behind Naruto's eyes.

Naruto wanted to cling to Naruto when they got back but didn't because Sasuke had asked him not to. Something about wanting to break it to his family. Naruto had not a doubt in his mind that Mikoto and Deidara had a clue-- if not the entire inkling-- about what was going to happen tonight, what had happened.

It was obvious by the way Mikoto's eyes met Sasuke's when they returned. The gleam in her eyes had a second meaning, a questioning demeanor. As Sasuke stared back, Naruto saw a familiar smirk creep on his face., answering the unspoken implication.

These plotting bastards.

For how long? How long has Naruto been apart of their scheme? How long has he been a puppet?

He smiled at the thought. If it makes Sasuke happy he didn't mind. As long as he's his. As long as those eyes come back to look at Naruto. As long as no one else got to hold and touch Sasuke like Naruto could.

Mayan orbs trailed him everywhere he went. Naruto imagined his hands on him, stealing him away from the party again and never letting him see any of these people for the rest of the night--the week--the month-- hell, the rest of their sad, pathetic lives. No one should ever be able to look at Sasuke again.

Yet for some reason, here Sasuke was, interacting with the public. How would Sasuke feel if he knew how Naruto thought? Not like it matters anymore; he swore himself to Naruto and Naruto said no takebacksies.

Naruto's gaze never left Sasuke for the rest of the night. He watched as Sasuke mingled with his friends, his charm drawing people in effortlessly. Naruto stayed at the edge of the party, his emotions simmering beneath the surface. Every laugh Sasuke shared with someone else, every smile, felt like a small dagger to his heart. One he wanted to rip from his chest and impale all these bastards with, one after the next.

As the night wore on and the sky showed signs of revival, the crowd began to thin. One by one, people bid their farewells, leaving the forest clearing quieter and more serene. Naruto finally saw his chance when Sasuke started making his way towards him, a tired but content smile on his face.

"You ready to go?" Sasuke asked, his voice soft.

Naruto nodded, not trusting himself to speak just yet. They walked in silence back to village, the sounds of the forest their only accompaniment. As the approached the clearing that led to the gates, Sasuke decided to break the silence.

Sasuke turned to face him, curiosity and concern in his eyes. "What's wrong, Naruto? You've been acting strange since we went back."

Naruto took a deep breath, racking his brain for a good excuse. His hands faked a slight tremor as he reached for Sasuke's. "You... you do love me, right?", he asked. This would suffice. It was something he wanted to know anyways.

"I- I'm just saying... like, you're not gonna go back to acting like our relationship is one sided, right? I don't want that." Honestly, Naruto would rather neuter himself with a rusty kunai, fully awake and comprehensive, than have Sasuke continue to treat him like he was one of his fans.

Truthfully, Naruto didn't have a problem with it. He was low maintenance... for the most part. But now that Sasuke told Naruto, he took that next step with him, he needs a slight amount more attention than before if Sasuke wanted him sane.

Sasuke's eyes softened as he listened, squeezing Naruto's hands reassuringly. "Naruto, you know you're the only one for me. I'm not going to hide you, not from my family or from anyone else. I may still ignore you or tease you sometimes, but it'll never be in the way it was before. I know you're kind of an introvert, but I'm not, and while I may talk to others, you're the only one with my attention."

Naruto's grip tightened, his voice a desperate whisper. "Sasuke, you can't tell me this stuff and not actually do it. You have to be mine. Everyone else gets you, all the time, and I get nothing. That's not fair." Naruto should drop this topic before he actually gets upset and kidnaps Sasuke. It's too touchy for him. Naruto has to admit that other people have Sasuke? Fucking kill him.

Sasuke pulled Naruto into a tight embrace, his lips brushing against Naruto's ear. "You have all of me, Naruto. Always. But we both have to share our lives with the people we care about. It doesn't mean you mean any less to me."

Naruto buried his face in Sasuke's shoulder, his voice muffled. "I just wanted it to be us tonight. Just for a little while. You'll stay with me, right?"

Sasuke pulled back slightly, cupping Naruto's face in his hands. "Then let's make it just us, right now. No one else, no distractions. Just you and me."

Naruto nodded, his heart aching with a mix of love, greed, and undying possessiveness. "Just us."

Sasuke smiled, the meaning behind Naruto's words flying over his head. He leaned in to press a gentle kiss to Naruto's lips. "Just us."
