AUTHORS NOTE: Part two of three is here. Woho!

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Sasuke breathed as he separated his lips from his boyfriend's who was lying beneath him. They were both naked under the covers in the Uchiha's bed, kissing and touching.

“Yes, I'm sure,” Naruto panted.

They had been a couple for several months now. They were also two hormonal sixteen-years-olds so of course they would take the opportunity to go all the way when Sasuke's parents left town for the weekend. Sasuke's brother had stayed at college this time so they had the whole house to themselves. They had both longed for more than making out and just touching each other. They had known each for so long and it felt right to take their relationship a step further.

“Besides, your dick is going into my ass, not the other way around. I should be the one worrying,” the blonde said and grinned shyly.

Sasuke snorted. Naruto had no idea how nervous the Uchiha actually was. The blonde had agreed to be on bottom the first time and the pale boy had vowed to himself that his boyfriend would not regret it.

A tanned hand reached up and touched his cheek. “ It's okay. I trust you.”

The words reassured the dark-haired teen and made him more nervous. Naruto was sure, but it made Sasuke aware of how much faith the Uzumaki was putting in him, to make it as painless as possible. They had done some research and learned that anal sex wasn’t always that good the first time.

Sasuke took a deep breath and kissed his partner again. He reminded himself of the fact that it was normal being nervous in a situation like this. He moved his lips against the blonde's hungrily and his companion responded with equal fervor.

Naruto spread his legs wider so Sasuke could settle fully between them. Their groins came in contact and they were both hard and eager. They ground against each other, letting the heat build. Their breathing quickened and they held on to each other tightly.

Sasuke moved his hand between tanned legs and started stroking his boyfriend's erection. He felt Naruto wrap a hand around his own hard-on. They took their time and slowly touched each other. Sasuke was painfully hard and prepared to enter his boyfriend's heat anytime, but he wanted to wait until his partner was ready.
The blonde finally guided Sasuke's hand to his entrance. Understanding the signal, the Uchiha grabbed the tube of lube from the nightstand and pored some of the gel onto his fingers. He circled the hole curiously for a moment. The blond let out a soft sigh of pleasure at the stimulation so the pale boy kept going, watching captivatedly. This was new territory. They had never fingered each other in this area before.

Naruto squirmed awkwardly when he noted the Uchiha's intense gaze at his opening. He felt exposed and vulnerable. “Come on, just put your finger in already,” he said.

Sasuke swallowed and did as he was told. He pushed one finger in. The blonde jumped and the Uchiha panicked. Had he hurt his partner?

“Does it hurt?”

Naruto shook his head and wrinkled his nose slightly. “No, it just feels weird.”

“Okay.”

Sasuke moved his finger in and out. None of them said anything. What can you say when your fingers are in your boyfriend's ass or when you boyfriend is fingering your rear passage?

“Can I add another?” the Uchiha asked after a while.

“Yeah.”

Sasuke pushed in two fingers. Naruto grimaced, but didn't protest. The pale fingers moved in and out of the blonde's body. Sasuke also moved his fingers in stretching motions, preparing the ring of muscle for something bigger.

Three fingers entered and the tanned boy stiffened so the Uchiha paused and waited. Naruto took a deep breath and nodded. The fingers started moving again.

“Do you feel pain?”

“A little,” the Uzumaki admitted. He would like to be able to answer “no”, but he figured the best thing he could do was to be honest. It was their first time, but practice makes perfect, he concluded.

That wouldn't do if Sasuke had anything to say in the matter. He eyed Naruto's softening cock and started stroking it. He felt the organ swell again and the blonde hummed. The tanned teen visibly relaxed so the Uchiha pushed in his fingers deeper.

“Ah!” the blonde gasped.

“Did that feel good?”

Naruto nodded frantically. “Yeah.”

The pale boy continued and deduced he had found the prostate, which they had also learned about during the research they had done before going through with their sexual debut.
The dark-haired boy was amazed when the Uzumaki started moaning and panting under him. The blonde even started pushing back on the digits inside of him. It turned Sasuke on beyond belief. He was rock-hard and dripping just like his partner.

Naruto was dizzy from pleasure. He was even close to finishing, but he wanted Sasuke inside of him, to be connected with the Uchiha as no one had ever been before. He took a hold of the pale wrist to stop his boyfriend.

“I’m ready.”

“Okay.”

Sasuske reached for the condom package on the nightstand and rolled one onto his erection. His movements were clumsy due to nerves and inexperience, but he got it on after some fumbling. He then coated himself with a generous amount of lube.

They shifted until they were comfortable. The pale boy was between Naruto's legs, his dick put against the Uzumaki's opening. The blonde was on his back and his arms encircled the Uchiha's neck.

They were face to face and shared a kiss. A least that was something they were familiar with and it calmed their nerves a bit. When they pulled back from it, their eyes locked. This was it, the moment they had been waiting for.

Naruto’s lips curved upwards a little in an encouraging expression. “Let's do it.”

Sasuke smiled back and started pushing into his boyfriend. The tip of his cock entered, but he stopped abruptly when the blonde let out a shout of pain.

“Ouch, fucking hell!”

The blue eyes were closed, the tanned face contorted in an expression of pain and the Uzumaki was taking deep breaths.

“I'm sorry,” the Uchiha said, voice filled with guilt.

Naruto opened his eyes and looked at Sasuke softly, appreciating the concern. “It's not your fault. We both knew it was going to hurt a bit. It just caught me off guard.”

Dark eyes scanned the sun-kissed face critically. “Really?”

The blonde nodded. “Yeah. Besides, it will get better, right?”

“I'll make sure of that,” the Uchiha promised. “We'll just have to take it slow.”

Sasuke pushed in and then pulled out slightly again, before pressing in further the next time. He spent a very long time on this, letting Naruto adjust. It was a challenge because the channel was calling to him with its tightness and heat, but he forced himself to endure.

Eventually, they were finally fully connected. They paused and took a few deep breaths. They kissed again, a deep passionate kiss with tongues battling and saliva being swapped.

“You can move,” the blonde said when they pulled apart.

Sasuke started thrusting carefully and slowly, watching Naruto's features for signs of pain or discomfort. It was visible in the Uzumaki's eyes, but he didn’t object, so it couldn’t be too bad. The blue orbs were open and watching the Uchiha. He smiled and the pale boy couldn't help but respond. After all, they were finally linked in the most intimate way possible.

“How does it feel?” the Uchiha asked.

“It stings and burns, but it's fading. How does it feel for you?”

“Amazing, so tight and warm.”

Their lips locked once more and they embraced each other strongly. Naruto wrapped his legs around Sasuke's waist because it felt like the right thing to do and it was more comfortable that way. When the thrust came, it reached deeper and made him see stars.

“Holy fuck!” he moaned.

The dark-haired teen stopped immediately, alarmed and anxious that his boyfriend was in pain. “What did I do?”
The blonde’s chest heaved. “Whatever you did, you have to do it again,” he gasped.

So it had been good. Sasuke sighed in relief. “I'll try,” he answered.

The pale boy started thrusting again, determined to find a way to repeat his prevision actions and learning what was good and what wasn’t as he went. Being inside his partner felt wonderful, but he wanted Naruto to feel pleasure too. He experimented with different angles, depth and speed until Naruto cried out.

“Ah, right there!”

Sasuke had memorized the move and repeated it. “Like this?”

“Yes, keep doing that,” Naruto murmured.

The blonde started pushing back against the pale boy and Sasuke let that guide the pace. They established a rhythm as they moved together. They both closed their eyes and let themselves get swept away by the sensations.

Gradually, they moved faster and faster. Cries of pleasure mixed with the creaking of the bed. The sounds echoed in the room and became louder as the act neared its end.

“Ah! Hah! Naruto, are you close?” the Uchiha asked.

“Ngn! I'm getting there.”

“Good, I can't hold it in much longer.”

Naruto dislodged one arm from around Sasuke's neck and used his hand to stroke his leaking shaft. It would not take much more before he finished.

The pale boy buried his face in the tanned boy's neck and moved faster. A fire, like hot lava, filled his veins. The heat centered in his groin and finally exploded, like an eruption of a volcano.
“Naruto!” he groaned.
He breathed shakily and shuddered as he released his seed. He kept moving a bit, riding out his orgasm.

Naruto's sweet spot was thoroughly abused and he was close, so close. His hand moved almost erratically on his dick until he finally reached completion.
“Sasuke!” he cried out.
His body shook slightly in the aftermath. The orgasm had been way more intense than when he masturbated.

Sasuke slumped against him and Naruto held him closely. They stayed like that for a while, letting their breathing and frantically beating hearts calm down.

“Hey, Sasuke?”

“Mhm?” the Uchiha commented as he lifted his head lazily.

Naruto stared at his boyfriend for a moment, smiling lightly. “I love you,” he blurted out.

The pale boy's eyes widened slightly. They hadn't said that to each other yet. They knew, of course, but they had both been too proud and stubborn to say it out loud. However, Naruto couldn't hold it in any longer, and it seemed like a perfect moment to say it.

Sasuke's lips tilted upwards when he recovered from his surprise. “I love you too.”

Blue eyes opened in the dark. Why would he dream about that night? He didn't want that. He didn't want to remember why he had loved Sasuke.
No one had taken interest in Naruto when he was a child. He had been the orphan boy no one cared about, until Sasuke had entered his life. The blonde had finally been acknowledged and the pair had formed a deep bond, which had meant a lot to the Uzumaki. Sasuke had seen him when no one else had. Despite the Uchiha’s personality, a connection like that was not easily broken or forgotten.
Sasuke had a soft side that people didn't see often. His exterior existed because of his stupid self-importance and was the result of a strict upbringing. Only a few people had been allowed to see through the facade. He had beaten up a pair of bullies that had bothered the younger kids at their school once, for example. He had also used his family influence and his influence as a member of the student council to improve the school they went to.

Naruto truly saw the good sides of the Uchiha it when they were alone together. Sasuke opened up to him, cared about him, gave true smiles in his presence and trusted him. They had had a lot of fun together when they bickered since they both liked challenging each other. It had been good-natured back then, not hostile like in present time.

The first time they had sex, Sasuke had been so caring and gentle. Naruto had had no idea the Uchiha was capable of that. It was such a great contrast to his reserved and harsh facade. Naruto found himself missing how it used to be.
Damn it, Naruto, you’re not good enough!

The blonde scoffed as the words echoed in his head. It didn't matter anymore. When this trip was over, he could forget about this whole thing and move on with his life. He shifted into a comfortable position and fell asleep once more.

Naruto awoke by someone shaking his shoulder. Knowing it was Sasuke, he shook it off angrily and groaned. “Ten more minutes,” he mumbled into his pillow.

“Time to get up, Uzumaki.”

“No.”

“I don't have time for this. Get moving,” his roommate urged impatiently.

“You're not the boss of me.”

“The faster you get up, the faster we can get on the road and be home.”

Naruto perked up at that. “Good point,” he agreed and sat up slowly, rubbing his face.

Sasuke froze when he realized that the blonde wanted to get away from him, wanted this trip to be over. He frowned. Why did that deliver a sharp sting to his heart? It shouldn't matter. He quickly shook his head to clear his mind. Thinking like that was stupid.

“I'm going to take a shower,” he announced and moved towards the bathroom.

“Yeah, I'll order some breakfast.”

They ordered breakfast via room service. Naruto ate while Sasuke was in the shower, then they switched. It was a fitting arrangement that suited them both. The less time they spent together, the better. They made quick work of gathering their things and soon they were on their way.

Naruto got bored of just sitting in a car quickly. He decided to pull out a document from his bag so he could do some work. It would help pass the time and it would also help him ignore his companion. As he reached inside the bag that was positioned on the floor by his feet, his attempt at being ambitious was rewarded with a paper-cut.
“Damn it!” he cursed silently, watching a small line of red appear on his finger.
“What happened?” the driver asked.
“I got a paper-cut.”
“Stupid klutz,” the Uchiha muttered.
There were a few tissues in the space between the two front seats. Sasuke reached for one and handed it over before focusing on driving once more.
Naruto stared for a moment, not expecting an act of kindness from the other. He wordlessly took the tissue and wiped away a bit of blood. His skin didn’t really come clean though. The red fluid was only smeared around.
“Your tissues suck,” the Uzumaki muttered irritably.
The package of tissues belonged to Sasuke. He had put them there so they would be close by in case there would be a need for them. He felt unreasonably offended by the blonde’s comment. “You suck,” he retorted childishly.
Naruto smirked. The opportunity was too good to pass up. A little blood didn’t disturb him and he had read somewhere that saliva had healing properties.
“All right,” he said as he put the finger in his mouth and sucked sensually.
Sasuke looked over briefly at hearing the playful tone of voice. He scowled at the lack of proper manners from the passenger at first, before it registered in his mind how erotic the sight was. An entirely different scene started playing out in his head. He swallowed and discreetly shook his head to clear his thoughts. He instantly returned his attention to the road.
However, the look that had crossed the pale features hadn’t escaped the blonde. “Is something bothering you, Sasuke?” he mocked.
“Grow up,” the Uchiha grumbled out in annoyance.
Naruto actually chuckled a little. He could obviously still get under the Uchiha’s skin and teasing him never got old. He focused on his work and let that occupy him for some time.

“Bastard, I'm hungry. Let's stop somewhere and eat,” the Uzumaki said when it started nearing 2 o'clock.

Sasuke could agree to that and steered of the highway. A smaller road led them to the nearest small town. They drove around a bit, searching for a suitable place until they eventually decided on a local diner. The duo selected a booth by the window and sat opposite each other. Both of them ordered steak since that was the lunch special.
As they sat there waiting, Naruto's phone beeped, signaling he had received a message. Sasuke saw his companion pick up his phone at laugh at whatever the message said. It was a natural and carefree laugh. There was a smile on the sun-kissed face and the blue eyes were lit up. He could remember when that sunny smile and that musical laughter were for him. Now why did this make the Uchiha jealous?

“Did you get a message from your girlfriend?” he sneered.

The blonde put away his phone after typing a quick reply and looked up, his eyes dulled by anger and hurt again. “What's it to you, douchebag?”

“Nothing.”

Naruto leaned forward, grinning teasingly. “Are you jealous?”

Sasuke scoffed. “Yeah, right. Keep dreaming.”

Naruto studied his companion inquiringly. On the surface, it would seem that the Uchiha truly didn't care, but a look into those dark eyes revealed a different story. The pale man’s face was always unreadable, but f you knew him, his eyes betrayed him.

The blonde sighed and leaned back in his seat. “The message wasn't from my girlfriend, or boyfriend. I don't have one at the moment, not for lack of trying, mind you,” he stated irritably. “It was from Sakura.”
Sasuke felt like a weight had been lifted of his shoulders, but to an outsider, his mask of indifference was still firmly in place. “I see.”

A waitress arrived with food and drinks. They dug in and Sasuke tried to understand why the fact that Naruto was single was a relief to him.
“Have you been in a relationship since we broke up?” he asked carefully. He had to know and it was a subject that would come up sooner or later anyway.
“A few, but nothing that lasted,” the Uzumaki supplied and shrugged casually.
“Did you get over me?” the pale man probed cautiously, not able to truly hide the bitterness in his tone. He felt another wave of jealousy wash over him. He didn't want anyone to touch the Uzumaki as he had touched him. It disturbed him greatly to think that Naruto had been with others during the past seven years.
Naruto snorted, fully capable of reading the pale man even after all this time. “What did you expect, you jerk? Did you honestly think I would be a like damsel in distress, waiting for your return?”
“I expected nothing,” the Uchiha said harshly and shoved some of his food into his mouth, chewing violently.
The blonde sighed. “I never forgot about you, but I had to move forward. I couldn’t let my life revolve around you,” he said quietly. “Besides, you left me so I don’t get why you’re jealous,” he finished in an annoyed tone.
Sasuke glared. “I’m not. You’re flattering yourself.”
Naruto shot the other a doubtful look. “When are you going to learn that you can’t lie to me? I know you too well.”
“Whatever,” the dark-haired man muttered.
They continued to eat in silence for some time. What he had been told wasn’t surprising. Naruto wasn’t the type who got hung up on the past, and rather he was all about tomorrow. The blonde being with other people instead of him was his own damn fault for letting the Uzumaki go in the first place, but he quickly pushed those thoughts to the back of his awareness. He didn’t want to enter that forbidden territory of his mind.
“What about you?”

The pale man looked up, startled from his thoughts. “What did you say?”

“Are you seeing anyone?”

“Why would you want to know?” the Uchiha huffed. How could Naruto be so calm when his own emotions were stirring up a violent storm inside of him? The blonde really meant it when he said he had moved forward with his life.

Naruto shrugged and the two looked each other in the eyes. “I was just curious. It gets lonely without having someone in your life. It has to be that way even for you.”

They had both paused their eating for the moment. Sasuke's heart decided to do an abrupt gymnastic routine as he reacquainted himself with those blue depths. There had been a trace of Naruto's tender and kind nature beneath the defensive exterior. The guy always had been too nice for his own good.

“I'm not seeing anyone,” the Uchiha had to admit finally. He had had a few flings only, nothing that had lasted. There had been no one with the right shade of blonde hair, the right type of blue eyes, the right personality or a smile that could put the sun to shame. No one had been able to compare to him. Naturally, he had suppressed all those thoughts, but now they rushed to the front of his mind.

“I'm not surprised. It takes a special brand of people to stand being around you,” the Uzumaki muttered and looked out the window, and whatever moment that had passed between them was now gone.

“Hn.”

They went back to eating without further comments. Sasuke was lost in his thoughts. Being close to his ex brought forth memories that had been buried for a long time and it was messing with his head. Naruto was completely countering every one on of his assumptions. The blonde was successful, more mature, good-looking as ever and single.

His contemplations were broken when their waitress arrived, wondering if they needed anything else. They asked for the bill and they paid separately when it came.

“I'm just going to visit the men's room and then we can go,” the Uzumaki commented when they had paid.

“Sure.”

As his companion walked away, Sasuke's phone started ringing. He fished it out of his pocket and groaned when he saw the caller ID.

“Yes, Itachi?” he said curtly.

“What's with the attitude, brother?”

Sasuke didn’t really want to talk to his sibling. He instinctively knew he would be told things he didn’t want to hear. “Just tell me what you want.”
Itachi deciphered his attitude instantly. “What’s bothering you, little one?”
“Nothing."
There was a quite laugh from the other end of the line. “Right,” the older Uchiha said in a disbelieving tone.” Something obviously crawled up your ass and died. Now tell me what’s going on.”

“Naruto is with me.”

There was a pause as Itachi recovered from the minor surprise of the unexpected statement. “Okay, you're going to have to explain that,” his brother requested.

Sasuke sighed and described how he had stumbled into the Uzumaki at the airport and everything that had happened since then.

“So . . . is this the first you've met him since . . . you know?” Itachi asked carefully.

“Yeah.”

“How is that working out for you?”

Sasuke sighed. “He's talking to me, but he's not happy."
“Well, with the way you dumped him, you can’t really blame him,” Itachi said easily.
Logic forced Sasuke to agree. “I guess not.”
Itachi hummed thoughtfully. “You still have feelings for him, don't you?”

“No, I don’t,” Sasuke disagreed crossly. “Are you high?”

Itachi chuckled at his brother's persistence. “Liar. You have always been too stubborn for your own good.”
“He’s made it clear that he wants nothing more to do with me after this. He’s moved on,” the young lawyer informed.
“He also said that he hasn’t forgotten about you, which leads me to believe he most likely still thinks about you sometimes,” his sibling pointed out.
“Even if I had feelings for him, I wouldn't know what to do about them anyway.”
“Well, I find honesty usually work best, but you're going to have to be honest with yourself first,” Itachi advised.
“Mind your own damn business,” Sasuke grumbled.
“You’re scared of being rejected,” the older Uchiha concluded.
“No.”
“You’re an Uchiha. You’re not going to let fear stop you from trying, are you?”
“You think you know everything, don't you?” Sasuke said grumpily.

“I don't know everything, but I'm not the one who hasn't been able to find someone these past seven years and I've seen those pictures you carry around in your wallet, foolish little brother.”

It was a stripe of four pictures of himself and Naruto. The blonde had insisted on making photos in a booth at festival one time. The first image shoved Naruto making bunny ears over Sasuke’s head while the pale teen looked irritated. Sasuke was looking dissatisfied in the second snapshot too while his boyfriend made a funny face. In the third picture, Naruto pecked his cheek and Sasuke smirked. In the fourth photo, they shared a kiss, and they were both smiling.

“Hn.”
“Talk to him. Maybe there's a chance you can find your way back to each other. Just forsake your pride for once.”

“Hn.”

Itachi chuckled. ”Dive safely now, little one. See you when you get home.”

Sasuke put the phone away and rubbed his temples. This shit was giving him a headache. As if he wasn't confused enough already. He was torn between what he thought he knew about Naruto and the new things had had learned about his former boyfriend. His older brother just had to be annoying and make it even worse.

After finishing his business in the bathroom, Naruto found a quite corner where he could make a phone call. He felt in need of some strength if he was going to make it through the last part of the journey with the bastard.

He dialed a familiar number and put the phone against his ear. He leaned against the wall and waited while it was ringing.

“Hello?”

“Hey, Sakura-chan.”

“Naruto! Is that you?”

He chuckled a little, but it was a forced sound. “Yeah, it's me.”
As predicted, Sakura immediately picked up on his mood and her voice became concerned. “Are you all right?” she asked.
“I'm okay, I guess.”
“You guess? Naruto, what's going on?” the pink-haired woman demanded sternly.

“You remember how I told you my boss had not booked a flight ticket home?”

“Yes?”

“Well, once I get to the airport, there were no tickets available. I couldn't take the train or the bus either. I asked for a rental car. There was only one left and someone had already rented it.”

“So what happened?”

Naruto decided to drop the bomb. “Guess who the last car had been rented out to?”

“No way?” Sakura understood whom he had been talking about. It had only been a matter of connecting the dots and the temperamental woman was intelligent.

“It's true.”

“Wow, how are you holding up?”

“I feel conflicted,” he replied honestly.

“Conflicted?”

Naruto sighed. “It's really weird. He's an asshole, but I did love him once, you know? On one hand, I want to punch him in the face. On the other hand, a part of me misses him and how it used to be. Is that weird?”
“No, it’s not. You two had a very deep attachment. I think the way you feel is understandable,” Sakura said gently.
“Yeah, that’s true,” the blonde agreed.

“Would you take him back?” his friend inquired curiously.

“It doesn’t matter. I'm not good enough for him anyway. He made that clear when he walked out on me. I just want this to be over so I can move on with my life.”
“Not good enough?” Sakura said harshly and Naruto flinched at the tone. He was happy she wasn’t where he was because she would surely have hit him. “Who got into to college and became an architect?”
The blonde laughed nervously. “I did.”
“And who designed City Hall of Konoha and got an award for that?”
“Me.”
“Exactly! I don’t ever want to hear you say something like that again. You hear me?”
“Yeah, got it,” the Uzumaki laughed.

Sakura softened her tone. “Be strong, okay? You have created a good life for yourself and you have the right to be proud. Don't let Sasuke make you think differently.”

Naruto smiled. “Yeah, I know. I just needed a reminder. Thanks, Sakura-chan. You always know what to say.”

“Anytime, Naruto, anytime.”

Naruto put his phone back into his pocket. His friend's encouraging words made him feel better. He had come a long way in these seven years. He took a deep breath before walking towards the main room of the diner. He arrived in time to see Sasuke rubbing his temples.

“What happened to you, bastard?”

The dark-haired man made a face. “Itachi,” was all he offered.
The blonde hummed in understanding. “I see.”

Sasuke took a deep breath and straightened out. “Let's get moving, shall we?”

The blonde nodded. “Yeah.”

They walked together towards the exit. The pale man was sure he would be exhausted when he came home, due to the emotional roller coaster he had been thrown onto.

They didn’t talk much. Sasuke seemed thoughtful. The silence irked Naruto. He had always hated complete silence. It made him uncomfortable. The sound of the engine rumbled in the background, but it was not enough. He turned on the radio and was happy when a song he liked was playing.

Sasuke didn't mind the music. It was better than the alternative. However, he did not approve of the blonde's choice in music. How could his companion listen to something so horrid? He reached out a hand and changed the channel, sighing in relief at the improvement.

The passenger was not happy about that. A bronzed hand reached out and switched back to the previous channel.

A dark eyebrow twitched. A pale hand reached out to repeat the blonde's movements.

Naruto growled and changed back again.

The driver copied the other once more.

It went back and forth in and endless cycle until the Uchiha lost his patience. “Will you stop it already? You'll break something!” he snapped, completely ignoring the fact that he was equally guilty of manhandling the radio.

“I started the radio, you stuck-up prick. I get to decide what we listen to,” the Uzumaki argued.

“I'm driving, so I make the rules,” the Uchiha shot back.

“I have better taste in music than you do.”

“No, you don’t,” the Uchiha disagreed. “I rented the car, not you.”

The blonde finally groaned, tired of arguing. “You know what? Fine, let's just pick some random channel that plays something we can both accept.”

“Deal.”

A channel was chosen and the stillness and quite from before ensued. Sasuke was a bit bewildered. Instead of persistently trying to get his way, Naruto had compromised and shown a new level of maturity.

They retreated into themselves as the car smoothly followed the highway. Different landscapes were swishing by them in a blur as the hours passed.

The countdown started – 4 hours, 3 hours, 2 hours, and 1 hour. It went pretty quick since there wasn't much traffic. Naruto had let the sound of the engine lull him to sleep, leaving Sasuke alone with his thoughts.
Itachi hummed thoughtfully. “You still have feelings for him, don't you?”

“No, I don’t,” Sasuke disagreed crossly. “Are you high?”

Itachi chuckled at his brother's persistence. “Liar. You have always been too stubborn for your own good.”
“He’s made it clear that he wants nothing more to do with me after this. He’s moved on,” the young lawyer informed.
“He also said that he hasn’t forgotten about you, which leads me to believe he most likely still thinks about you sometimes,” his sibling pointed out.
“Even if I had feelings for him, I wouldn't know what to do about them anyway.”
“Well, I find honesty usually work best, but you're going to have to be honest with yourself first,” Itachi advised.
Sasuke cursed his brother. Itachi had made him think about things he didn't want to think about. He had worked too hard to suppress such thoughts. However, they attacked him with full force now.

Don't you dare underestimate me, you asshole! You're going to regret ever saying that one day, I promise you that!

Naruto had been true to his word. He had proven Sasuke wrong. It was the Uchiha who hadn't had faith that the blonde could make something of himself.

They passed Konoha's borders and the driver felt a sudden wave of panic wash over him. This meant Naruto would leave his side. They would probably meet in town now and then, but the blonde had made it clear he wanted distance between them. Being close to his ex made the Uchiha realize how much he had missed the Uzumaki. The thought of not having him close by made him feel lonely and empty.

They hit a speed bump, which roused the passenger from his sleep. He yawned, stretched and took a look around. “Home sweet home,” he said.

The driver didn't say anything. He followed the instructions to Naruto's home that he had been given earlier. Konoha had changed a bit. Some roads and streets had been modified, some added, and there were new buildings here and there. Despite this, he could still navigate easily. The vehicle moved through the center of town and further until they reached a more secluded area filled with houses.

The car came to a stop in front a small, white house with a little lawn and a cute fence. The duo sat in silence for a moment. What now? What would be an appropriate farewell?

Naruto cleared his throat. “Thanks for the ride,” he said, wanting to end this in a polite manner at least.

“Uh-huh,” Sasuke responded distractedly.

“I'll guess I'll maybe see you around then.”

The blonde moved out of the car and retrieved his luggage from the trunk. Sasuke watched him walk towards his door. Seeing that made reality hit him. What was he doing? Naruto was walking away from him. His brain screamed at him to not let this happen, that Naruto had grown up and changed.
He took a few deep breaths and gripped the steering wheel tightly. His pride and his feelings for his former boyfriend were fighting violently in his chest. The memory of blue eyes, contagious laughter, beaming smiles and gentle touches haunted him. What had he been thinking when he broke up with someone like that?
“Talk to him. Maybe there's a chance you can find your way back to each other. Just forsake your pride for once.”

Sasuke finally snapped inwardly. Fuck pride! He had let Naruto go once, which had proved to be a mistake, and he would be damned before he let it happen again.

He stepped out of the car. “Naruto, wait!”
