�Night-time sharpens, heightens each sensation ...

Darkness stirs and wakes imagination ...

Silently the senses abandon their defenses...�

Naruto followed the deep lyrical voice of his boyfriend down
the hall. He kept his footfalls light so as not to make a sound on the pale
carpet that would alert the singer to his audience. His boyfriend had a
wonderful singing voice, even if he would never admit it. He easily kept up
with the dips and curls of emotion in the music. Naruto made it undetected to
the doorway and stood there, leaning against the doorframe, taking in the sight
before him.

�Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams!

Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before!

Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar!

And you'll live as you've never lived before...�

He lay face down across the bed in nothing but the fluffy
white towel he�d wrapped around his waist after his shower. Eye�s closed and
head tilted to the side, Neji sang along with the mp3 on his laptop. Hitting
the high note with an ease that would have made an opera singer jealous. Brown
hair flowed and parted to either side of his back like a silken waterfall, even
now dripping water into the light green sheets. Blue eyes roved across the
pale, muscled back framed by that hair, across the high firm backside and down
the long legs with a sense of contentment.

�Feel it, hear it, closing in around you ...

Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,

in this darkness which you know you cannot fight ��

That sinfully beautiful (and Neji would kill him if he ever
uttered those words within his hearing) voice certainly was closing in around
him. Making him want nothing more then to silence it with a burning kiss.
Hungry eyes watched as a pale, long fingered hand reached around and scratched
at a terry cloth covered butt. He couldn�t hold back the snort of amusement
which made Neji stop singing abruptly and whip his head around to stare wide
eyed at the man in the doorway. Little drops of water from his hair flying far
enough to land on Naruto�s face.

�Now that was sexy,� Naruto chuckled, wiping the
drops off and dodging a pillow aimed at his head.

The music was turned off and Neji closed the laptop,
stretching out his body to put it on the floor. When he�d finished, he turned
on his side and glared at the still grinning Naruto.

�I didn�t expect you back for another hour,� he told him.
His pale opaque eyes searched the other man�s face as if to find the reason for
his early return.

�So you only scratch that perfect ass when I�m not around? I
knew you had to do things us mere humans do sometime,� Naruto teased lightly.
He walked over and sat down on the edge of the bed, trying to make that last
bit of towel clinging stubbornly to Neji�s hip fall. No luck. Neji hitched the
towel up and secured it in place. Naruto gave him a petulant look and Neji
smirked.

�What I do with my person is none of your concern,
especially when you�re not here,� Neji said with a quirked eyebrow. �I see your
meeting got out early tonight,�

�Oh no you don�t. I�m not letting you change the subject.
Just what do you do to your �person� when I�m not around, hmm?� Naruto asked
with a sly grin. He scooted closer to the prone man, laying a big hand on his
chest and lightly playing between the indents of the abs. Fingers traced well
worn paths absently like a driver on that last stretch of road that leads home.
Indeed, he was almost home, until another hand slapped his away. He grinned up
mischievously into annoyed opaque eyes.

�You,� Neji said, taking Naruto�s face in between in his
hands and twisting them until Naruto was on hands and knees above him, �are
very easily distracted.�

�I am no�� Naruto began but was cut off by soft lips
pressing to his. He let his body sink down on to Neji�s as his hands sank into
the soft brown hair around them. He let his senses drown in the taste of Neji�s
mouth. Damn that man could kiss. If a tongue could have a life of its own then
Neji�s certainly did. It moved and caressed Naruto�s mouth as if independent of
the thing that housed it.

Neji placed his elbows on Naruto�s forearms, effectively
trapping them against the bed while never letting go of his face. He wanted to
control the kiss and that was just fine with Naruto. A firm stroke later with a
velvet tongue produced a noticeable tightness in his pants. He shifted to put
some pressure in just the right place but Neji bit down lightly on his tongue.
�Don�t move� the bite said. So Naruto settled and Neji continued his onslaught
of his mouth.

Sighing into the kiss, Naruto let his mind empty so he could
focus on the rough slickness licking and rubbing over the roof of his mouth,
across his teeth and on the insides of his cheeks. Neji�s hands moved his face,
nudging it this way and that gently in the direction he wanted it to go and
Naruto didn�t even bother to protest. He didn�t want to anyway.

His boyfriend was the patient one in the relationship.
Always doing things slowly, sensually. Whereas Naruto was more of a �take the
clothes off and let�s go� type if guy. But this was nice too. Even if he did
have to restrain himself a little more then he liked to admit from just taking
over and grinding Neji into the mattress.

Inch by inch Naruto relaxed his muscles and melted a little
farther in to Neji�s warmth. The slim man�s soft skin felt so good through the
thin cotton of the white business shirt he was wearing. Feeling eyes on him,
Naruto opened his and was met by the laughing depths of the man currently
turning him to jelly. Neji always loved showing Naruto just how adept he was at
seducing him. Loved the way the younger man would give in instantly if he so
wanted it. It was a powerful feeling, to have that kind of control over someone
like Naruto.

He took his hands away from Naruto�s face and trailed them
languidly down the clothed sides of the man above him. Not able to help
himself, Naruto arched into the sensual touch. Damn that Neji, he knew Naruto�s
biggest turn on was having his sides stroked. He breathed hard in to the kiss
and felt laughter shake the warm frame under him. The long fingered hands never
paused their slow slide up and down.

The kiss broke. Both men stared deep into each other�s eyes.
Neji with amusement and satisfaction, Naruto with dazed arousal. A smile tugged
at the corner of Neji�s mouth as he watched Naruto open his and try to speak.
Probably to ask why they stopped.

�So, what else do you do to your person when I�m not here?�
Naruto asked in a steady, not lust filled voice. He smiled brightly down at the
blinking man under him.

�Huh?� Neji responded intelligently.

�Hmmm�I think that was supposed to be my response, wasn�t
it?� Naruto said thoughtfully. He laid a finger on the tip of Neji�s nose.
�Gotcha,� he quipped.

After a few seconds of doing an admirable impression of a
stranded fish, the other man chuckled dryly. How could he have forgotten that
his boyfriend had a tendency of surprising you when you least expected it? It
was one of the things he loved so much about him.

He took a playful nip at the finger on his nose. When Naruto
laughed, his breath hitched as the broad frame shook with mirth. At least he
knew that he�d had some effect on him, if the hard poking his lower abdomen was
receiving was any indication. Of course, his own hardness had to be as
prominent as his lover�s.

�I�m waiting,� Naruto said in a singsong tone, mirth dancing
around his features. �Come on Neji, I know you must do something that us mere
mortals do everyday. Tell me.� He rested his hands lightly on Neji�s sides.
They lay there, not moving and innocent, however, opaque eyes widened comically
large at the gesture. The mischievous grin adorning Naruto�s face only made
Neji try to squirm away and the eyes to widen even further.

�Naruto, don�t even think�� he began, voice breathy.

�Too late!� Naruto said. With most of his considerable
strength holding down Neji�s legs, he launched into an attack of the man�s
sides. Tickling like his life depended on it, Naruto wiggled fingers all over
the soft, sensitive skin, all the while giggling and laughing like a child.

Neji twisted and jerked in the firm grip of Naruto�s thighs,
trying desperately to retreat so as not to lose his dignity. He could feel it,
right in the pit of his stomach. It wanted out. No way, there was no way Naruto
was going to get him to�

Seeing the slightly panicked look in those eyes, Naruto ran
his hands up from Neji�s sides to right under his arms. His fingers waged war
with the hollow of his armpits, tickling through the hair there. That evil,
manic grin still plastered on his handsome face.

That was it. He couldn�t hold it anymore. Damn Naruto and
his knowledge of his body�s one weak spot.

Neji Hyuuga burst out in peals of laughter; his long, lithe
body curling in on itself as best it could while being held down. Words formed
then died without being uttered, as he laughed so hard that tears began to leak
from the corners of his eyes.

�Eh? What was that? You give up? You�ll tell me anything and
everything I want to know now?� Naruto asked the writhing man under him; more
then a little turned on at this point. He wondered how Neji would react if he
told him just how aroused it made him to hear the other man�s deep laughter. It
was such a rare sound that it was as precious to him as the man making it.

�Hahaha�.o..k�.haha�..s-stop!� Neji stuttered out between
puffs of laughter and fits of giggles. Yes, giggles. Naruto had been pleasantly
shocked that this proud, arrogant man even knew how to giggle the first time he
heard it. Of course, right after hearing this sacred sound, Neji had made him
swear never to tell anyone on pain of being stripped and beaten; and not in the
sexy way either.

He let out a long sigh when the torturous fingers retreated.
Cautiously, he let his body relax and stretch out from the fetal position he�d
been in. Naruto made a threatening wiggle motion with his fingers and Neji
reflexively curled up and shut his eyes tight.

�All right, all right, I�m not going to tickle you again.
Promise,� he chuckled, laying a soothing hand on Neji�s shoulder. It was
amazing how a tall man like Neji could make himself look so small at times.

Pale eyes opened a crack and focused on the other man�s
grinning face. Finding himself the center of Neji�s attention, Naruto stuck two
fingers in his mouth, winked and gave the �scout�s honor� sign with the wet
digits.

�I don�t know why I even try,� Neji sighed, quietly amused.

�Cause you lo~ove me and you wa~ant me,� Naruto drawled,
wiggling his eyebrows in a lascivious manner.

Naruto squawked embarrassingly as Neji flipped him over and
settled on top of him in a reversal of position that left him semi dizzy.
Sitting on his hips, Neji�s eyes gloated and a smirk alighted on his handsome
face as he looked down at Naruto�s stunned, bemused expression. His smirk soon
faded as he felt a hand squeeze one of his butt cheeks firmly. He rolled his
eyes and pulled the hand away from his backside. Naruto pouted at him
playfully, sticking his tongue out.

�What?� Naruto blinked innocently up at him. �I though maybe
your butt was still itchy.�

Neji couldn�t believe he could say that with a straight
face. He shook his head, making his long, still damp hair move gently.

�Or maybe,� Naruto said and bucked his hips up in one short
jerk, �I thought your butt was cold so I put my hand there to warm it up.�

Neji gasped as a tingle of desire shot from his naked groin
up his spine. Only now did he realize that the towel had fallen away when he�d
flipped Naruto over and left him quite nude on top of the fully clothed man. He
put his hands on Naruto�s torso to keep him from grinding up into the sensitive
skin of his balls with the scratchy material of his pants. Hands stopped him
when he made to get up so he could put on some clothes so he settled back more
firmly on his butt to take the (delicious) pressure off his hard arousal.

Naruto smiled widely. He was having a very good evening. He
had a warm, damp haired, nude, smiling (well smirking but close enough), naked,
aroused, undressed, incredibly sexy and uncovered Neji sitting on top of him.
The night couldn�t get any better.

At least that�s what he thought up until the moment Neji�s
long fingers began undoing the buttons of his shirt. When he looked up at
Neji�s face he let out a shaky breath at the dark look in those breathtaking
eyes. Naruto loved that look. It always promised that he�d be flat on his back,
panting in ecstasy and screaming Neji�s name.

As cool fingers brushed the skin of his chest, Naruto
shuddered and gave Neji all of his attention. Finally, the last button was
undone and Naruto�s upper body was laid bare before Neji; looking like a feast
worthy of a king. Well, this was one feast Neji was determined to get full off
of. He leaned down and licked a cool, wet trail from right above Naruto�s belt
buckle to the hollow of his throat in a slow dragging motion; delighted when
Naruto arched up and rolled his back to follow the tongue.

He let his fingers unbuckle Naruto�s belt and unsnap his
pants on their own as he sucked the side of Naruto�s neck, tasting him.

�Like sweat and salt Naruto,� Neji breathed into the
pleasure-racked man�s ear.

�Romantic as always Neji,� Naruto said, letting out a
breathy chuckle. He groaned when he felt Neji�s hands wrap around him at the
same time he went back to mouthing his neck. �Gods Neji, your impatient
tonight.�

�I want you,� the man whispered into the hollow behind
Naruto�s ear.

The undisguised lust in that silky voice combined with
little breaths of hot air tickling such a sensitive spot made Naruto�s eyes
cross for a moment. He placed his hands on Neji�s and helped him take his pants
off. It made him glad that he�d taken his shoes and socks off when he�d first
came home since they didn�t have to separate for very long to get the garment
off quickly.

Now both men were gloriously naked and they wasted no time
pressing close to each other. Both eager to feel, taste, and touch the familiar
landscape of each other�s bodies. For nine years they�d been together. Eight
years they�d been lovers. Five years they�d lived together. Yet every single
time Neji saw Naruto�s nude form, he was struck dumb for at least a moment. To
put it simply the man was gorgeous.

In his teens, Naruto had often been teased about his short
height, so he started working out. When he hit 17 he had a major growth spurt,
shooting up to 6�1. His height combined with broad shoulders, impressive arms
and killer six-pack made him the hottest thing walking the halls. His bright
and fierce personality made him the most popular guy you�d ever meet.

And he was all Neji�s. Mind, body and soul.

He caught Naruto looking down at his body with a soft
wondering expression.

�What�s wrong?� he asked, touching Naruto�s face.

For a minute Neji thought Naruto wouldn�t answer. He just
gazed down between their bodies, lightly rubbing his hands over Neji�s hair and
back. But, just when he thought he�d have to repeat the question, Naruto spoke;
his voice as soft as the look in his eyes.

�How did I ever catch you?� he said. He pulled Neji closer
into his body, burying his face in the long hair on Neji�s shoulder. �I don�t
think I could have loved anyone as much as you.�

�Naruto,� Neji breathed out the name. �You�re asking me
that? You had everyone chasing you. Even Sasuke finally said he�d go out with
you. Yet you turned them all down. You focused on me when I was a complete arrogant
ass to you. I didn�t return your calls, avoided you, called you so many hurtful
things. Still you asked me out.� Neji closed his eyes. �Why? I�m not that
special. Not like you. I�m cold, arrogant. Not someone others feel comfortable
around.�

Naruto�s head shot back and he looked, stunned, into Neji�s
eyes. He waited long enough to confirm that Neji was serious before grabbing
his shoulders and pushing him to the side. He rolled them both and ended up in
the same position they�d started the night; with Naruto on top straddling Neji.

�Don�t ever let me hear you say that again,� Naruto
growled out in a serious tone. �You are fucking everything to me. You�re
beautiful,� he put a finger on Neji�s lips when the other tried to scoff at
Naruto�s impassioned words. �Shut up, you are! You�re kinder then you want
others to think. You�re warm when we�re together. I know for a fact there are
plenty of people who feel comfortable around you. I can even call them right
now and ask! Damn it Neji!�

Naruto sat back on his heels and let his eyes rake over
Neji�s prone, shocked as hell form.

�No one has skin more perfect. No one has a more sexy
stomach. No one has hair that soft. No one has such a tight ass. No one,�
he pinned Neji with a hard stare, �can make me hard in the middle of the day by
just thinking about how they smell.�

Neji was speechless. He literally couldn�t think of a thing
to say. Naruto was fierce above him. His blue eyes inflamed with the passion of
his words, his impressive body outlined by the overhead light and his blonde
hair tousled around his head like an unruly halo. All of his attention was
entirely on the man below him. But he wasn�t done. Neji watched as Naruto
leaned over him, putting his hands on either side of his head, making sure Neji
had no where to look other then those cerulean eyes.

�There�s no one like you Neji. I knew that then. I didn�t
want to settle for someone else when I knew that I was in love with you. My
crush on Sasuke was just that, a crush. Something temporary. I couldn�t sleep
some nights after seeing you. You haunted my dreams and I�d wake up crying
because I just knew you�d never say yes.� Naruto chuckled when he saw the
pained expression on Neji�s face. �It�s fine. That day when you told me to pick
you up and take you to a movie, I was so happy. I must have stood in front of
my closet for an hour trying to impress you.�

�Naruto,� Neji interrupted him, unable to stand the tirade
of words and emotion pouring from them any longer. �I never knew. Why didn�t
you tell me this? We�ve been together for so long now. I�I would have wanted to
know that.� Neji�s eyes pleaded with Naruto. Begging him to explain. Begging
him to make him believe that everything he�d said was true. Because he just
didn�t believe anyone could think so much of him.

Naruto smiled that wonderful, childlike smile that lifted
spirits no matter who was on the receiving side. He let a hand wonder over
Neji�s eyebrows, his nose, his lips, and then he kissed him.

�You need to know how important you are to me. How important
you are to the people that love you,� he whispered the words against Neji�s
soft, parted lips. �I�m going to show you just how precious you are Neji,� his
voice dropped to a low, sexy as all hell purr and he licked Neji�s mouth.

Neji gasped at the unexpected wet swipe of tongue and
threaded his hands in Naruto�s hair to bring him closer. When they kissed,
years of love passed from Naruto�s mouth into Neji�s and Neji fought to make
sure that same love passed from his mouth to Naruto�s. He didn�t fight Naruto
for dominance over the kiss, just let him control it and show him his feelings.

Naruto moved slow, showing with his hands, his mouth and
gentle nipping teeth, just how beautiful Neji was to him. He whispered words of
love and longing. Feathered kisses everywhere he could reach. He made Neji
moan, pant and toss his head from side to side all from worshiping his body
with his ministrations. When he finally took Neji into his mouth, the man was
crying softly, fully convinced that he was indeed loved and wanted.

Tongue swirling and flicking over Neji�s throbbing length,
Naruto smiled with his blue eyes. He ran his tongue from the tip of the head
down to his balls and over them, kissing each one and growing even more aroused
by the panting whimpers falling from Neji�s swollen lips. With a mischievous
smirk he blew lightly on Neji�s entrance.

�Ahhh Naruto!� Neji shouted, his eyes flying open to lock
with Naruto�s between his legs. The heavy lidded lustful stare peeking above
his bobbing erection made him cry out and nearly spill out everything he had.

Naruto�s stomach clenched at the erotic cry and he slid up
Neji�s sweat soaked body. �I�ll be right back. Don�t move,� he whispered,
kissing Neji deeply then getting up off the bed.

�Wha...?� came the confused question from Neji�s mouth which
was still seeking the warm lips that�d just left his. But before he could sit
up to find out just where his lover had gone, Naruto was back, easing over Neji
sensitive skin like a warm balm.

�I�m back,� Naruto said. �Miss me?� He pecked Neji on the
nose, ducking when the other man made a halfhearted attempt at smacking him in
the head. Lowering his mouth to Neji�s lips, he covered them with his own. His
tongue swooping in and scrambling any thoughts the flushed man had left.

A blunt presence at his entrance alerted Neji that Naruto
had slicked a finger and was going to make him feel really, really good in just
a few seconds. He automatically relaxed and was rewarded with a smooth, wide
finger pushing in slow and sure. Naruto laid himself on his side next to Neji,
still kissing him, still moving his index finger in and out in that slow way
that he knew the other loved so much. He was so hot on the inside. Searching,
he found the coin sized raised lump he was looking for and passed his finger
over it a few times.

The results were immediate. Neji arched sharply and came,
screaming Naruto�s name into his lover�s mouth. Strong, pale hands gripped the
sheets then shot up to hold onto Naruto�s broad shoulders, raking nails down
one arm. Naruto grunted and broke the kiss to lean his forehead in the crook of
Neji�s neck, breathing hard. He felt the other�s body relax and looked down to
his still somewhat hard erection. That was good. He�d wanted to take him away
from the edge so that when he starting pushing in, Neji wouldn�t shoot off too
fast to be able to enjoy it.

�Neji,� Naruto
panted. �Do you need more time?� Oh God please say no�.

Neji�s answer, while unspoken, was a definite no. He rolled
over on top of Naruto and looked around for the little bottle of lubrication he
knew was nearby. Spotting the orange bottle a little ways away on the bed, he
took it and pumped some into his hand. By this time, Naruto�s eye�s had widened
to that point where he was lucky they didn�t pop right out of his head. He
watched in tense anticipation as Neji sat up and reached behind him to grasp
Naruto�s hardness in a slick palm. Stroking firmly, Neji made sure the erection
in his hand was fully coated before picking himself up slightly and guiding his
entrance over the tip.

�Neji, please,� Naruto pleaded with him. �I want to be
inside you�

Neji smirked. Oh he loved this. Loved being able to make
that pleading, desperate tone enter Naruto voice. If he didn�t want Naruto�s
hardness inside him so badly he could hardly think, he�d have slid down as slow
as he could, pausing every centimeter until nothing but a chant of� �please, please, please� could be
heard from his lover�s mouth. As it was, he wanted nothing more right now then
to be impaled on Naruto. So he pushed down steadily, stopping when it was too
painful to go any father and waiting till he could go on again. He stopped when
he felt Naruto fully seated inside him and took a deep breath.

Hot hands landed on slim, flawless hips, holding them
tightly. Naruto gulped loudly, his head thrown back so Neji could see his adams
apple bob up and down. Sweat slid down a smooth cheek. Blue eyes found pale and
with a signal built upon years of knowledge, the two men began moving. Neji
pushing down as Naruto rocked up. Their breaths ragged, eyes never breaking
contact, they danced an erotic dance perfected but ever changing.

With his fingers making indents in the skin of Neji�s hip,
Naruto started humming. A few seconds into the tune, Neji recognized it as part
of the soundtrack he�d been singing when Naruto�d walk in. It was a song called
�Point of No Return�. He was humming the Phantom�s part, making the dark tune
vibrate through his chest. The humming stopped and Naruto tensed and gasped. Neji
felt his liquid warmth spilling inside him and shuddered at the intimate
sensation.

Naruto, still breathing heavily, took Neji in his hand and
stroked him quickly, moving his hips faster than the slow pace they�d been
using before. Caught off guard, Neji fell back, putting his hands on the bed
behind him quickly, causing the force of Naruto�s thrusts to hit sharply over
his prostate. For the second time, Neji came with Naruto�s name in a shout on
his lips. Hearing a strange hmm�ing sound, he sluggishly straightened to
look down at Naruto. What he saw made him tighten and a bright blush spread
across his cheeks.

Licking his cum off his fingers like it was the finest cream
and he a cat, Naruto grinned up at Neji.

�Wonderful,� he said in a low voice. He laughed when Neji
blushed brighter and hid his face behind a curtain of his hair.

The laugh made both of them gasp and writhe as Neji clenched
around Naruto who was still seated inside of him; it left them panting with
Neji sprawled on top of his lover�s strong chest. Naruto pulled out gently and
Neji sighed at the feeling. They lay there, each wrapped up in a new feeling of
warmth and contentment they�d not known could exist.

�So,� Naruto broke the silence they�d fallen into, �what
else do you do to that perfect body when I�m not around.�

Neji stared at him incredulously.

�You�re not going to give up on that are you?� he asked
exasperated but amused.

�Nope.� Naruto grinned at him.

Neji sighed and lay his head back down on Naruto�s chest. He
breathed in Naruto scent, staying quiet in hopes that Naruto might eventually
give up. He should have known better. Naruto�s hand disappeared from around him
and reappeared on his side, fingers ghosting over the skin. Neji tensed and
pushed up to get off of Naruto but the man used his strength to hold him in
place with one arm.

�All right! I�ll tell you. Just don�t�no tickling�.� Neji
said breathlessly, squirming away from Naruto�s hand on his ribs.

Naruto grinned and moved the hand back to its place around Neji�s
shoulders.

�So, do you�..scratch your balls when I�m not around?� he
said happily, knowing how disgusted and annoyed the man in his arms was with
him right now.

Sighing, Neji answered the idiotic question. �Yes.�

�Interesting. Do you�.pick out wedgies?�

�Yes,� Neji sighed. �Naruto this is ridiculous.�

�No it�s not. I�m learning more about you.� Naruto chuckled
at the disgruntled look Neji shot at him. �So, do you�..burp really loud?� he
continued.

�Oh for the love of�..yes,� Neji�s voice was clipped and
annoyed; a smile hovered on the edge of his lips.

�Ok. Do you,� he dropped his voice to a whisper as if he was
going to tell him a secret, �fart?�

Neji wouldn�t have laughed. He really wouldn�t have. But
Naruto�d said it with such a serious tone, such a straight face, that he
couldn�t help the snorting laughter that bubbled from his stomach and spilled
out his mouth. He was so breathless with mirth that he couldn�t even answer the
ridiculous question.

�So is that a yes?� Naruto asked, chuckling and then
laughing along with Neji. He grinned when he heard a breathy �yes� wheeze out
from the laughing man. �Ok, ok, one more.� He waited till Neji�s laughter had
subsided some, though chuckles would still escape from time to time, setting
them both off again.

�So, Neji, do you ever��think about marrying me?�

�Ye�what?!� Neji squeaked when the question actually sank
in. He sat up quickly and Naruto let him pull away completely so he could look
down at him with shocked pale eyes. He blinked rapidly, trying to think, trying
to wrap his mind around what was just asked. �Naruto?� he said, confusion
lacing his voice.

�Do you?� Naruto was looking at him steadily. Love and
hopefulness were shining out of his true blue eyes.

�Naruto, are you,� Neji paused, swallowed hard, and then
continued. �Are you asking me if I�d marry you or if I�ve just thought about
it?� He had to ask, had to be certain of what the other was asking him.

Instead of answering, Naruto got up and walked over to the
pile of his clothes on the floor. He rustled around in the pocket of his pants
as Neji watched from the bed. When he turned back, he was holding a small black
velvet covered box.

�I know you hate it when I do stuff that guys do for chicks
but, well�� he gulped, suddenly losing the confident air he�d had a second ago.
He knelt at the edge of the bed and placed the box carefully on the sheets
between him and Neji. �Open it?� his voice made it a question.

�Yes,� Neji said softly and picked up the box. He opened it
and nearly dropped it. He�d known intellectually what was in the box but that
didn�t make it any less shocking to find a silver band nestled in the black
silk inside it. At a rustle of sheets he started, eyes flying from the ring to
Naruto�s anxious face. �Say it again,� he said quietly, taking the ring out and
crawling the short distance to the edge of the bed where Naruto knelt on the
floor.

�Do you ever think about marrying me?� Naruto�s voice
cracked at the end, making him sound boyish.

�Yes. Now ask the other question, the one you really want to
ask,� Neji told him. He took Naruto�s hand and laid the ring on it. He sat on
the edge of the bed and gazed down at the naked man kneeling there.

He�s so beautiful, Naruto thought as he took in Neji�s pale
body with his long dark hair framing it, making it stand out even more. Naruto
licked his lips, gazing down at the floor to gather his courage.

�Neji, would you marry me?� he said in a rush, his eyes
snapping up to stare sincerely at Neji�s.

�Holy shit he just asked me to marry him� flew through
Neji�s mind as he stared dumbfounded at Naruto. He needed to say something. He
was staring too long, Naruto�s eyes were growing uncertain. Damn it he needed
to say something!

�Yes,� he squeaked out in an echo of Naruto�s earlier boyish
voice. He felt the ring being slid on his finger, the cool metal warming
quickly with his body heat. It fit perfectly.
