Bastard!

Kakashi had given him the heads up he needed- don't change, be yourself. He would curse that bastard as much as he wanted. "Alright! I'll just try again then" he announced as he started to head off, suddenly feeling lightheaded. Kakashi was beside him in an instant as he began to fall, the white-haired male's scent invading his nostrils, making him panic slightly- he could tell he was at a disadvantage for some reason. He was an alpha too.

"Are you okay, sir?" Kakashi asked quickly, taking his time to straighten the both of them, so he didn't hurt Naruto in the process.

"I'm- I'm fine, thank you" he answered, confused as to why he was suddenly under the weather like this. Kakashi helped him get back to the house, the two splitting up as Naruto went to find Sasuke's room again, the white-haired male had given him directions and he tried his best to follow and remember them. He was hot all of a sudden. He could barely stand as he knocked on the door, receiving a "one second" as he leaned against the door frame. His breathing had started to get heavier as he waited, hearing the approaching footsteps on the other side of this door. Even though he was suddenly unwell, he would follow through for the sake of Mikoto's wish- that they get to know each other.

His eyes hazed over as the door finally opened, the comforting scent causing him to blink a few times at the appearance of Sasuke- he had gotten the room correct. "What are you doing here? By the way you walked out, I assumed we were done" Sasuke asked, looking back at him.

"I'm only here because of Makoto- let's talk properly, you asshole" he said weakly, despite the harsh name calling. Sasuke huffed as he stepped back, giving Naruto the space to walk in. All was good, until Naruto's world rocked. Literally.

----------------------------

"What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know, Sir, he seems to be having heat symptoms- you should just let him rest, or you could try to help him, it's your choice, sir."
"Hm, okay- you may leave" 

Upon waking, Naruto heard two different voices conversating as he sat up- well, tried to. He was tucked in on a bed that was foreign to him. Looking around, he had realized this was Sasuke's room- why was he here? What happened to him? He looked over at the door as it was shut, noticing Sasuke walking towards him "you smell, idiot" his fiancé said and, despite his harsh words, he reached out to Naruto, placing the back of his hand on the other male's forehead, checking his temperature.  "They said you might be going into heat- you just came and you're already causing so much trouble" he continued, sighing as he sat down on the bed. "Do you want to be alone for this when it hits? We can provide you with a room on the other side of the house, my mother can take care of you if you'd like- we don't really know how to deal with heats, besides our parents" Sasuke admitted, clearly a little embarrassed as he looked away from Naruto. 

"Stay with me, we could get to know each other- I doubt I'll go into heat now anyways" he said, noticing that Sasuke was a little different, he was...caring? It was a long shot, inviting Sasuke to stay with him, but surprisingly, his fiancé nodded and went to turn off the light, before coming back to sit beside him on the bed.

"I was lectured by my mother about heats, she told me that it could be painful without someone to help you. Even though you're just an asset to this family, I am the one who has to take care of you- guess you're not as strong as you thought you were huh?" Sasuke explained, scoffing as he sat in the dark with Naruto.

"If you don't want to do it, then just leave, I'll lie to her for you- no point being here against your will" Naruto replied, sighing as he mustered all of his energy to move further away from Sasuke.

"Shut it- you're lucky I'm even letting you stay in my bed" the Uchiha said, laying down beside Naruto on his side, facing the man he was going to marry "go on then, what do you want to know?" Sasuke asked, catching Naruto off guard. He was oddly calm and compliant with Naruto at the moment, a complete change from earlier, when he was spouting all the insults he could think of, at Naruto.

"Well, what do you like to do in your spare time?" he asked, also turning onto his side to face the other male.

"Reading and business related matters" the raven answered bluntly, shrugging.

"Not gonna ask about me?"

Sighing, Sasuke complied "okay, fine, what about you?"

"I don't know- I never really got to enjoy anything- but I loved eating ramen with Teuchi and Ayame! They were the best!" Naruto answered, surprisingly enthusiastic for how drained he was.

"Keep it down, idiot- who are they?" Sasuke warned, no malice behind his words as he stared at Naruto, listening intently.
"My two, and only, best friends- they were the only ones who treated me like a person...I miss them now" Naruto replied, sighing as he realized he would never see them again, he was trapped here. 

"You don't miss your family?" 

"What family?" 

Silenced passed over them after that, Naruto's uncharacteristic answer catching Sasuke off guard, Naruto continuing before he could even say anything "I wish I had a family that cared about me- I wanted one, but now I'm stuck here, away from the only people who accepted me and it's all your fault- all your fucking fault" the blond didn't know what took over him as he burst into a fit of tears, "get away from me" he said, shoving Sasuke with all of his might, but obviously weak due to him being in his pre-heat stage. Was he this sensitive because of his upcoming heat too?

"Shut up, idiot" Sasuke mumbled but, despite his words, he moved closer and engulfed Naruto, taking the hits without a problem as the blond struggled against him. 

"I'm sorry"
