Part of this chapter is Sasuke's remaining time with Itachi and the other half is where he meets up with Naruto again. Two more chapters and we will have reached the conclusion.

Chapter Seventeen

Since Karin had only gotten the week off, she insisted they spend that time reconnecting. Sasuke lost count of how many times she ambushed him in the shower during the first three days alone. His dick was starting to chafe from how often and vigorously she used it. They also spent some time coming up with the guest list for a wedding he was having second thoughts about. She wanted to send out invites to most of her friends and family, while Sasuke settled for his parents, Itachi's family, and a few of his friends – meaning Ino and Hinata, maybe Suigetsu and Neji, too, if they were interested in seeing a train wreck waiting to happen.
If that wasn't bad enough, Itachi kept giving him these looks, like agreeing to all of Karin's simpering made him an idiot. He really didn't know what his brother's deal was. He'd told Sasuke already that he shouldn't see Naruto again, but he was still unhappy even though Sasuke was staying with Karin. It didn't make any damn sense. He tried to bring it up one night after Karin had gone upstairs, but Itachi only dismissed him, like he was a child again. It was infuriating.
He tried to explain it to Ino over the phone, but she wasn't sympathetic in the least. In fact, she insisted on laughing at him.
“Look, you got yourself into this mess. You should've walked away as soon as you found out he was a minor.”
“It's too late for lectures now, don't you think?”
“All I'm saying is you made a mess. Now clean it up!”
She hung up on him and Sasuke was left wondering why he chose her as his business partner. He knew she had a point, though, just like his brother had a point. It wasn't like he hadn't though any of that himself. He knew what he was doing and he knew who he was hurting. It was selfish but he didn't want to stop.
He snuck out the next night, taking Karin's car instead of Itachi's truck. He felt like a teenager again, especially when his brother walked into the diner and sat across from him with a scowl on his face. They were silent up until Sasuke's third cup of coffee, when the waitress started to look nervous about coming back up to his table for more refills.
“You're acting like a child.” Itachi told him uselessly. Sasuke was very aware of how he was acting. Konan enjoyed reminding him every time they passed each other in the hallway.
“How?” Sasuke asked. “I'm only doing what you said to do.”
“You're not doing a very good job then.” Sasuke raised an eyebrow at this and Itachi raised one of his in retaliation. “Do you remember what I said last week?”
“You said a lot last week.” Sasuke smirked.
Itachi gave him a long-suffering look before motioning for the waitress to come back to their table. He ordered his own cup of coffee, black with one sugar, and sat back in his seat to regard Sasuke with a softer look.
“I told you to make a decision.” The waitress gave them a wide berth after she dropped off Itachi's coffee. Apparently the air between them was so tense that no one wanted to disturb them. “You don't intend to stop seeing Naruto-kun.” he sighed, like the whole world was suddenly on his shoulders.
“I never actually said I would.” Sasuke reminded him. He set his empty coffee cup off to the side and pulled a few bills from his wallet to pay for it. He wasn't ready to leave yet, but the reason he'd come here in the first place was to get away from his brother. Itachi grabbed his wrist as he moved to stand and forced Sasuke to meet his eyes.
“I don't condone your actions, but I'm still your brother. If this is truly the road you want to take, I will be here when you fall apart. I have no doubt of that.” Itachi told him seriously. Sasuke flushed as he shook the man's hand off his arm and strode towards the front door, ignoring the looks from the other customers. He climbed into Karin's car and sat there for a few moments trying to collect himself.
Itachi was still gone when he made it back to the house. Sasuke left Karin sleeping in the guest room and curled up on the couch in the living room. He heard when his brother came home and he heard when Konan got up to make breakfast a few hours later. He finally fell asleep just after that, his mind quiet. They left him alone to sleep but it was dreamless.
*~*
He spent the rest of his week with Karin generally trying to avoid her. She tried pulling him upstairs whenever he wasn't playing with Tsuzu and cornered him in the shower in the mornings. She curled up against him at night, and while the warmth of another body was pleasant, his thoughts were elsewhere. They days were crawling by slowly and he just wanted to go back to his own apartment.
“What do you want to do for your birthday?” Karin asked him, a day before she was scheduled to go back to work. She was sitting at the table with him while Tsuzu and he colored on a few sheets of printer paper. He was more scribbling than actually drawing, but that was down to Karin bothering him about every little thing.
“I don't want a party.” he told her automatically.
“I know that, silly. I mean, we could go to dinner or see a movie. We haven't been out in a while.”
“Why can't we have a party?” Tsuzu asked as she looked up from her picture. “We can get a bouncy house and a clown and I can invite all my friends!”
“Your Uncle Sasuke hates parties, honey.” Karin laughed. Tsuzu gasped like she was offended, which made Karin laugh more. Even Sasuke managed to smirk a little.
“Call my mother first.” Sasuke said to Karin. “She might have something planned already.”
“Oooh, yeah! I haven't talked to your mom in days.” Karin smiled. She kissed him on the cheek before getting up from the table, sliding her cell out of her pocket. Sasuke waited until she was gone before he allowed himself to relax.
“She really loves you.” Tsuzu chirped innocently. Sasuke offered her a pained smile, though his niece probably couldn't even tell the difference. She smiled back, one of her front teeth missing.
Karin joined them again half an hour later, quiet and contemplative, and Sasuke didn't ask her what was wrong. He indulged her that night, doing whatever she wanted of him before they fell asleep. She was already gone when he woke up the next morning and a part of him was instantly relieved.
Konan and Itachi seemed to relax after that. She still glared at him from time to time, but Itachi had stopped telling him what to do. He didn't make any more calls out to Naruto, but that was only because he didn't have any other way. They hadn't exchanged emails before he left and Itachi kept a close eye on the phone in the hall. Sasuke was starting to really miss the sound of Naruto's voice.
*~*
Itachi took him out sometimes, when Sasuke got too restless to stay in the house. They went to dinner, visited Itachi's flock, or their parents. Mikoto was always glad for a little help around the garden and they were both ecstatic to find that she was looking better and better each time they saw her. She cooed over Sasuke's impending wedding, flicked through magazines on the days that Karin could get away from work. She suggested flowers, place settings, and a few dozen other things for Karin to think over. Sasuke was more or less on the sidelines, feeling restless with every minute that passed.
Time just seemed to slip through his fingers and suddenly it was his birthday. Tsuzu woke him up that morning by jumping on the bed and singing happy birthday at the top of her lungs. Sasuke let her get through the song before he swept her off her feet and threw her over his shoulder. She squealed the whole way down the stairs, her tiny knees digging into his abdomen. Sasuke sat her down at the table where her parents were placing plates of food for breakfast.
Itachi's hair was a tangled mess, left out of his ponytail for once.
“You look like a woman.” Sasuke told him with a smirk. Itachi gave him an unimpressed look as he took a seat at the table. Konan set a few more plates onto the table before she took her own seat and they quietly started to eat.
After breakfast, Konan and Itachi took off with Tsuzu and Sasuke was left to his own devices. He checked his email, played a few rounds of solitaire, and more or less just sat on his ass. He was tempted to go downstairs and call Naruto, but the blonde was probably in school judging by how early it still was. He settled for jerking off to porn instead, like he was a fucking teenager all over again.
The house was modest and wide open, but he still felt like he was trapped. It was like being under house arrest and it was driving him crazy. He didn't like being cooped up. When Itachi finally came home, Sasuke pulled him into the sitting room and closed the doors behind him.
"If I promise to stay away from him, will you let me go home?" Sasuke asked him, almost desperately. He could tell by the look on Itachi's face that he was seriously considering it.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Itachi nodded his head.
"Next week." he said firmly, leaving no room for Sasuke to protest. Still, it was better than him saying no.
Sasuke's birthday ended up being a quiet affair. They drove to their parents' house after lunch. They had a small party and talked over cake while Sasuke opened presents and Mikoto took photos for one of her many scrapbooks.
Karin showed up at the house later that night and stayed to have dinner. Sasuke was surprised that she didn't follow him back to Itachi's, but it wasn't like he cared either way. It just meant he got a bed all to himself.
He wasn't at the house much longer after that. He packed his things at the end of July and was buzzing with restrained excitement on the drive back to his apartment. Before he got out of the car, Itachi grabbed his arm and fixed him with a serious look.
“Remember what you promised.” the man reminded him gravely. Sasuke had only nodded before pulling his arm out of Itachi's grip and shutting the door behind him. The apartment was nearly the same as he left it. It smelled more like Karin than it did of him and he wasn't sure how to feel about it. He put his dirty clothes in the wash and then relaxed on the couch with the cordless phone. The first call he made was to Ino because he, begrudgingly, missed her voice.
“So that means you're coming back to work, right?” she asked coyly after he'd told her he was back home. “I expect a lot of vacation time for this, you know.”
“I'll take over for the next two weeks.” he said with a smirk. They shared a few more words before they hung up and Sasuke made a second call to Hinata to let her know as well. They made plans to get drinks the next night he worked and neither of them brought up what happened the last time they were together.
His mind was quiet that night when he was finally settling into bed. Despite what he'd promised his brother, he had every intention of seeing Naruto. It was just a matter of when.
*~*
When turned out to be mid-August, after Ino's two weeks off. Between planning a wedding he didn't want to have and working doubles every night, Sasuke was exhausted more often than not by the time he got home. When Ino finally came back to work, Sasuke picked a night when he knew Karin had a shift and wouldn't even realize he was gone. The house was dark when he pulled up to the curb a little after two in the morning.
He picked a few pebbles off the road and threw them up at Naruto's window, unable to keep the smirk off his face. His skin was already prickling with the blonde's phantom touch, even after the last few months apart.
Sasuke was on him as soon as the door opened and he didn't waste any time lifting the blonde and carrying him up the stairs. Naruto pointed him in the right direction of his room and Sasuke set him down on the bed a little carelessly, his dick hardening up in his jeans. Sasuke kicked his shoes off and followed Naruto up to the headboard. He had so much he wanted to say; wanted to tell Naruto how much he missed him, but the blonde kept cutting him off. There were things they needed to talk about, but their libido was getting the best of them.
Naruto went for the zipper on his jeans and Sasuke pawed at Naruto's pajama pants, wanting to feel skin.
“I turned twenty-four while I was gone.” Sasuke muttered as he rolled one of the teen's nipples in his fingers. Naruto retaliated by shoving a hand into his boxers.
"Happy belated birthday, then." Naruto said absently. Sasuke wanted to roll his eyes at the response but he got distracted by the tongue on his lip for a second. He pulled away and frowned down at him.
"Did you hear me, dumbass? I turned twenty-four. That's eight years older than you now." he said in a soft voice. He didn't know why he was getting so bent out of shape about this or why it should matter. It hadn't bothered him before.
Sasuke sighed and placed his forehead against Naruto's chest, soaking in the heat of his skin. The despair only lasted a second before Naruto's fingers were curling around his cock. Sasuke pushed himself up so he could see the blonde completely and his heart skipped a beat at the veiled sadness he could see in the teen's eyes, like he expected Sasuke to pull the plug on the whole thing.
Maybe he should've, but there was a reason Itachi called him foolish.
"After tonight, we need to start going on dates." Sasuke smirked as he leaned back down to seal his lips over Naruto's, a soft moan leaving him when the blonde's fingers tightened around his cock. It wasn't nearly as wet as he wanted, but it felt too good to stop.
Sasuke pushed his hand into Naruto's pajama pants and gripped his cock, giving it a lazy pump as he sucked on the teen's bottom lip. Naruto exhaled a soft 'fuck' into his mouth and Sasuke felt a shudder work its way down his back.
They were both too wired to draw it out. Sasuke came first, shooting off in his pants with Naruto's hand wrapped around him. The blonde followed a minute later, his grunt muffled in Sasuke's shoulder. They still had most of their clothes on.
After they'd gotten cleaned up, Sasuke took off the rest of his clothes and slipped under Naruto's blanket. The blonde's skin was warm against his and he smelled like sweat and laundry soap. Naruto tucked his head under Sasuke's chin and curled into his chest. Sasuke pressed a kiss into his hair.
“I didn't think you were coming back.” Naruto said after a moment. Sasuke pressed another kiss into his hair, glad that the teen couldn't see his face.
“It was harder than I thought getting away from my brother.” Sasuke admitted easily. Naruto lifted his head at that, his eyebrows furrowed as he leaned in to press their mouths together. There was a hint of desperation behind it, but Sasuke slowly eased the kiss back to softer territory and pressed the blonde down into the mattress with his body.
When Sasuke pulled away, Naruto looked more relaxed.
“How long can you stay?” he asked.
“Until you fall asleep.” Sasuke promised him, tucking Naruto's head back under his chin. Truthfully he didn't want to leave, but he didn't want Kakashi or Iruka to catch him sneaking out the front door.
Naruto fell asleep a little while later, sprawled over most of Sasuke's body. It took a few minutes of maneuvering before he was able to get the teen off him without waking him up. He dressed quietly and took his phone back from where it was resting on the table. The battery was drained but he didn't need it at the moment, so it was shoved into his pocket.
It was just after four in the morning. The house was still as he made his way down the stairs, checking his pockets for his car keys. He was able to get outside without any trouble.
As he drove home he thought about what Itachi had told him a few months back, that Naruto wouldn't be the only one hurt if things ended badly. Sasuke didn't want to admit it, but his brother had been right. It wasn't only Naruto's heart on the line.
