AN: I am so very sorry for the lateness of this chapter, I just completely lost all inspiration for it for a while. I know the chapter is short, but I split the chapter because I don't know when I'll have it done (but I am working on it now and it won't take as long to update next time) and you guys have been waiting long enough for an update. Next chapter will pick up directly where this one leaves off.

Chapter 9
Sasuke glanced at the bedroom door once again, unnerved at the silence. Naruto had been quiet the last two days. Sasuke knew the blonde was mulling over the information he'd learned; he'd not wanted to hurt Naruto but knew the other man needed to know what his husband was up to. He sighed, leaning back on the couch and debating on whether to try to get Naruto to talk to him again or just leave him alone. The hushed stillness of the cabin was driving him crazy.
He wouldn't admit the real reason he was so restless. In his mind he kept seeing Naruto's flushed face when he'd lain on him after the blonde had attempted his escape. The temptation he'd felt to kiss those soft-looking lips had been nearly overwhelming; he'd had to force himself to back off before giving in to the desire to devour the blonde alive. But it was hard, pun intended.
And after two days of Naruto hiding himself away (just when Sasuke was getting used to the brash blonde too), he felt on the verge of chucking his so-called pride out the window and begging Naruto to come out and talk. Even if it was just to berate or yell at him, he didn't care. This utter silence was getting on his last nerves.
Getting off the couch, Sasuke decided to fix some lunch. Maybe he could entice the other man out with the smell of food. He wasn't too great a cook, but he could make a decent stir fry. Gathering some chicken breast strips and his needed vegetables from the fridge, a bit disappointed there was no broccoli but shrugging it off, he set his ingredients on the counter and began the chore of chopping them up.

Naruto sat on the edge of the bed, just staring at the damning evidence of his husband's treachery. He'd felt such a rush of emotions, all by a single small scrap of paper. The first he'd felt was disbelief, followed by the hugest sense of betrayal he'd ever felt, even worse than his husband cheating on him. He had been almost numb while just gazing at the scrawled numbers, but now a white-hot fury was working through him.
Carefully folding the paper up – he had to get it out of his sight or he'd rip it to shreds – Naruto placed it in his pocket then stood and walked to the door. He was angry and wanted to hurt something, destroy whatever was close at hand in his rage, but he made himself calm down. No use taking it out on Sasuke. While he'd been holed up in the bedroom he'd realized if not for the dark-haired man, he'd most likely be dead right now.
He stepped out of the bedroom, the aroma of seasoned sautéed chicken assailing his nostrils and pulling him towards the kitchen area. He slowly walked towards the counter, seeing Sasuke standing at the stove. The man was switching between pans, stirring the sizzling chicken while watching a wok that looked to be full of sliced vegetables; a smaller pan was on a back burner. The mouthwatering aromas made his stomach growl loudly.
"Smells good," Naruto commented.
"It'll be done in a few minutes, just waiting for the rice to finish," Sasuke said. "Grab the plates would you?"
Naruto nodded, heading to the cabinet Sasuke pointed out. His movements were quiet, the rattle of the chain conspicuously absent for the first time since he'd been in the cabin; Sasuke had actually unlocked the chain yesterday, promising a silent Naruto he'd tell him whatever he wanted to know when he was ready. He knew Naruto had no intention of going anywhere after discovering what his husband had tried to do, knowing he'd have to stay hidden a while to figure out what his next move was.
Taking down two plates and rummaging in a drawer for silverware, Naruto carried them to the counter and set them down. Sasuke set the pan of white rice down next to them, dishing out a spoonful for each plate, before adding the cooked chicken into the wok of vegetables and bringing it to the counter as well.
After both men fixed their plates they took their food to the small table to eat. Naruto took a tentative bite first, glancing at Sasuke as he chewed the flavorful chicken and a piece of carrot.
"Pretty good," he admitted after swallowing.
Sasuke nodded. "Glad you like it. And more so that you decided not to throw it at me again." He chuckled lightly at the blush that rose onto Naruto's cheeks.
"You deserved that! And for chaining me up for over a week."
Sasuke's brow rose. "Would you have stayed otherwise? You wouldn't have believed me no matter what I told you, and you'd have been out the door in seconds. I couldn't let that happen."
Naruto sighed. "I know. But I need to know, Sasuke. And right now you're the only one who can give me the truth on what's going on."
"I've told you the majority of what I know, but ask me whatever you want."
"Ok." Naruto took another bite before speaking again. "I want to know everything you know, we'll talk as soon as we finish lunch."
"Deal," Sasuke agreed. Both men then continued eating, neither speaking as thoughts whirled through both their minds.
Fifteen minutes and another serving later Naruto stood, carrying his empty plate to the sink. "Since you cooked, I'll wash," he murmured. Sasuke raised a brow in amusement but didn't argue, merely handing his plate and fork to the blonde as Naruto filled the sink with soapy water. He saved the pans for last, rinsing them off and placing them in the dish drain before grabbing a hand towel and wiping his hands dry. He turned and came face to face with Sasuke, who'd stood watching him the past several minutes. That intense look was back in those dark eyes, making Naruto swallow nervously.
Sasuke had slowly moved closer to Naruto while the other man was washing the dishes. The instant Naruto turned around he found himself caged in against the counter, Sasuke's arms trapping him in place. His ebony stare was fixated on Naruto's lips.
Neither moved a muscle for several seconds. Naruto could do nothing it seemed but watch as if paralyzed as Sasuke's face lowered towards his own, his heart racing wildly. His breath hitched as those pale lips finally made contact with his.
Soft, yet firm. Sasuke marveled at the feel of Naruto's lips on his own. He brushed them lightly at first, afraid of rejection, but Naruto didn't push him away. Instead the blonde reached up and grasped Sasuke's shoulders tightly, fingers digging into the hard muscle as Sasuke deepened the kiss.
Countless seconds ticked by as the two men remained in their embrace. Neither seemed willing to part until Sasuke moved his arms and settled his hands on Naruto's upper hips while his tongue sought entry into the warmth of Naruto's mouth. With a gasp Naruto broke away, backing into the counter behind him, his bright blue eyes wide in shock.
"Y-you shouldn't… we shouldn't," Naruto stuttered out. Sasuke nodded, stepping back.
"You're right. I apologize." Though he really wasn't sorry, that kiss had been so much more than he'd expected or imagined and he couldn't regret it.
Naruto's face felt like it was on fire, his cheeks rosy with a heated blush. His lips were tingling from the contact with Sasuke's. He'd not been kissed like that in… well, never really. Orochimaru's kisses had been nice when they'd first begun dating, but they'd never made his heart beat so crazily or his knees feel weak, and he didn't really have any comparison to what Sasuke made him feel. The pull he felt for the raven-haired man scared him a bit in its intensity.
Sasuke likewise had similar thoughts. That was so much better than he'd anticipated, and all he wanted was to pull Naruto close and claim those lush lips again. He fought with himself not to grab Naruto and kiss him senseless. He glanced over and saw the younger man standing warily by the counter, having moved out of Sasuke's immediate reach to avoid temptation.
Moving to sit back down at the table, he gestured for Naruto to take his seat once again. A bit shaken by what just happened and by his developing feelings, Naruto sat facing Sasuke. He cleared his throat, his gaze meeting Sasuke's shyly for a moment before tearing away. He took a deep breath and again met Sasuke's eyes, ready to find out exactly what went on with Sasuke and Orochimaru, and why his husband wanted him dead.
