Naruto wiped his hands on the grass, awkwardly trying to remove most of the blood and grime.  Beside him, Kakashi spoke quietly into his headset, relaying co-ordinates for hunter-nins and the Komugigakure police force, not bothering to do anything about the spreading redness on his left sleeve.

It hadn’t been that difficult to take the man down. ( Read more... )

“I still can’t believe you convinced Kakashi to sell you his old bike.”

Sasuke shook his head and watched Naruto gleefully pull the cover off the gleaming chrome and metal, rolling his eyes when the blond insisted on shining an already spotless mirror with the corner of his sleeve.

“Come on Sasuke,” he said.  “You could at least sound a ( Read more... )

Sakura moved restlessly against Sasuke’s thigh and pulled him closer.  It was going to happen this time, she was sure of it.

She only got a bit of resistance as he drew down beside her, not directly on top of her like she’d wanted, but the way he cupped an arm around her head and breathed hotly into her ear made up for that.

Naruto was frowning at him now, like he’d just told him he wasn’t allowed to eat ramen for a year or something.  Stupid.  Why was he looking so disappointed?  It’s not like Sasuke was ever going to return the favour so…

Sasuke shifted and his elbow dug into a sweaty chest.

Naruto growled and shoved their hips ( Read more... )

 She didn’t think she would like it, the sweat.

“Zip me up,” she said, turning and lifting her hair so Naruto could slide the tiny zipper up the back of her dress and secure the clasp at the nape of her neck.

Neji twitched his fingers and tested the bonds around his wrists gingerly, sliding up against the sheets to get a better look at where Naruto was looping what looked like the obi from one of his yukata sets over his right foot.  His left foot was still heavily encased in a cast and propped up on a pillow on the other side of the blond man, ( Read more... )

From his position in the tree, Kakashi couldn't get a good enough view of Sasuke's lips to determine just what he said in order to make Naruto scoop a handful of leaves from the ground and chuck them at the other boy's face as hard as he could.

He did hear Naruto's angry cry when he shoved the bundle of dry foliage and twigs down Sasuke's ( Read more... )
