Retribution
Chapter One
-The Break Up-
A black corvette pulled up to a fairly large estate and parked. An auburn haired man got out from the driver's side, a rose in his hand as he shut the door and started up the walk and the stairs to the massive front door. He was dressed semi-casual, a black button down shirt, un-tucked over a pair of dark blue jeans.
He lifted his fist, but before he could knock on the door, it opened to reveal an exquisitely beautiful woman. She was of average height, her short pink hair stopping just above her shoulders and was styled with a small flare. She looked surprised to see him, her light jade eyes appearing confused at the sight. "Vincent?" she asked, opening the door a bit more. She was dressed in amazingly tight black skinny jeans and a matching revealing halter top. It dipped low and revealed most of her cleavage, but was skin tight around her bust and her abdomen, showing off a nice section of her stomach. "What are you doing here?"
Teal eyes widened with surprise. "What do you mean? We have a date tonight Natsumi." He frowned, offering her the rose.
She took it carefully, looking anything but pleased with the gesture. "Huh…I forgot." She shrugged, staring at him with a bored expression.
"What do you mean you forgot? You're all dressed up." The auburn haired man pointed out, taking in her delicious appearance. Everything about her body was alluring, and he couldn't wait to get a taste of it. After all, they'd been going out for almost a month now.
Natsumi sighed, her shoulders slumping. "Yeah about that…I was actually going out with my sister and the girls tonight."
"But we planned this a week ago…" he almost protested.
The pink haired woman shook her head and pinched the bridge of her nose with her perfectly manicured fingers. "Vincent…I think we should see other people." She said, sounding final. She shut her front door behind her and locked it. "Thanks for the rose though." She smiled, waving him farewell as she passed him on the elegant stoop. She went over to her silver R8 Audi and got in, starting the engine and then throwing the flower out the window before driving off.
"And she just left?!" a brunette asked, his dark blue eyes wide as he leaned across the table towards his friend. "You're kidding!"
"Dude, I wish I was." Vincent sighed, picking up his beer and taking a large swig.
The brunette sat back, shaking his head. "That's just…wow. What a bitch."
There was another brunette beside him, his hair longer and tied back at the bottom. His dark brown eyes looked uninterested, but he was still sympathetic. "It is pretty harsh. But didn't Toshiro tell you this would happen?"
"Yeah, but I just figured it was his way of trying to keep me away from his little sister. And things seemed like they were going so well." The auburn haired man said, sounding completely depressed.
"It always seems perfect just when it's about to get bad man, never forget that." Haru said, pointing at him for emphasis as he lifted his own drink to his lips.
He glared at him slightly. "I know that. But we were only dating for a month. The first month always goes smoothly."
Ryo, the youngest of the three, just shook his head and let out another sigh. "And you didn't even get to sleep with her."
"I didn't even get tit privileges. All she let me do was a bit of tongue action, some thigh stroking." His brow furrowed. "She was such a fucking tease."
"Well, well, well…" an amused voice spoke up as a redhead and a dark haired man walked up to the table. "Now, by the sounds of that, it sounds like this emergency gathering was called for reasons I am already aware of." Toshiro smirked, one of his hands in his pocket. He had on a nice white, but loose fit t-shirt, and pair of dark jeans, since he'd just come from home.
"Shut up. I don't wanna hear it." Vincent guzzled down the rest of his beer, quickly ordering a new one.
The other man was wearing some dark jeans and a nice black t-shirt. "Oh come on Vincent, it was just a woman. There's plenty of them around." He smirked, taking a seat along with his redheaded companion.
"None like Natsumi though." He shook his head.
The ebony haired man snorted. "God you have no idea how pathetic you sound right now. Toshiro even told you this would happen, correct?"
"…so."
"Aw, give him a break Akito." Toshiro smirked, elbowing his friend. "Trust me. You've no idea how alluring my sister can be."
Haru nodded and lifted his glass. "I'll say. She's one of those girl's you dream about being beneath you, screaming out your-" he stopped when he saw the threatening glare sent his way by the redhead. "Sorry." He mumbled, lowering his glass and drinking it to silence himself. "She's just that fuckin' hot."
Toshiro just rolled his eyes and sat back, ordering himself a drink. Akito ordered one as well before looking back at his friends. "I've seen the magazine pictures, I know she looks hot and all, but there's plenty of other hot women out there." He shrugged.
"But how many hot women are out there that can act like an innocent virgin one minute and a sexy vixen the next?" Vincent asked, raising a brow. "Not many. They're either slutty and they put out, or are those look but don't touch types."
"Look," Toshiro sighed, giving his auburn haired friend a sympathetic glance. "I told you. She doesn't have long term relationships and she does horrible things to the men who grovel at her feet. She manipulates them because she likes the thrill from it, not cause' she likes you. I don't think she's ever legitimately liked anyone aside from Kyo, and he broke up with her, it was actually mutual…and then she helped him win my sister over…which was weird, but that's aside from the point. I told you it was dangerous. I told you she wouldn't put out or keep you. She's like…a female version of Akito here." He smirked, flicking his ebony haired friend in the side of the head.
"Oh whatever. Women are only good for one thing anyways." Akito said as his drink was set down before him.
"I beg to differ." A voice said, and everyone turned to see a sandy haired man walk up with hazel eyes. "Hey guys! Sorry I'm late, Satomi needed me to get her some feminine products and chocolate, so I had to go by the store and then her place before coming here."
Vincent stared at the blonde. "Dude…that is just sad. You're like her bitch."
"What I do for her I do willingly. Besides, it earns me points for the next time we go out and things get a little heated." He wagged his eyebrows. Then he sat down and looked around at the group, smiling. "So, I'm guessing this means Vincent was dumped by Natsumi." He gave his friend a pitying look. "Should've listened to Toshiro man. I'm just saying."
"Will everyone just quit telling me that?! All you're doing is feeding his already larger than life ego!" Vincent grumbled, crossing his arms in a pout.
Kyo snickered. "Please, we all know Akito is the one with the biggest ego."
"No argument here." The Uchiha said, taking a sip of his beverage.
"I have no complaints on having my ego fed." Toshiro snickered, taking his drink once it was set in front of him. "And yeah he got dumped. Like a rock in a river. So how'd it happen?"
Haru perked up and laughed, "He went to pick her up, and she came out all hot and dressed up, and said she forgot and that she was going clubbing with the ladies. Then she just left him there saying they should see other people!"
"Ouch." Toshiro said, trying to keep his laugh in.
"She even took the rose I got for her and threw it out her window as she drove off." Vincent pouted, staring at his drink.
Akito smirked. "You totally deserved it man. I mean, from what I heard about your relationship with her, you were kinda clingy."
"Was not." The auburn haired man glared.
"Sounds like you were." Ryo sighed.
Vincent's glare turned to the Hyuuga. "Just because I hung out with her all the time and stuff does not make me clingy. I was trying to ensure that she would be ready and willing to fuck after our date tonight. But it was all a waste."
"Yup." Haru nodded. "But I'm glad it was you instead of me so I could avoid the whole ordeal. She's hot and all, but I'm not putting up with the crap you did to not get banged. So thanks Vincent." The brunette snickered.
"Can we please talk about something else?" Toshiro said, sounding strained as he drank the rest of his beverage.
"Well what else are we going to talk about?" Akito asked. "The whole reason we came was so that Vincent could wallow in his own self pity." He smirked.
"Then stop talking about her in the bedroom sense. Alright? I would rather keep those images out of my head." The redhead glared at his best friend warningly.
Haru waved him off and focused back on Vincent. "So what are you going to do now?"
The auburn haired man sat there for a moment, looking contemplative. Then he smirked darkly. "I'm going to do to her what she did to me." He said.
Kyo leaned forward. "What?" he asked, confused. "How can you do that? She's not going to date you again."
"Maybe not me, but there's other people here that she will find attractive enough to date." His aqua gaze slid over to the Uchiha.
"No." Akito said strongly.
"Whoa." Toshiro blinked in confusion. "What?"
Haru stood excitedly, looming over the dark haired man. "That's brilliant! Akito you could do it! You have no emotions and you like to manipulate people!"
"I already said no." Akito said.
"Oh come on." Vincent pleaded. "You'd be doing me and every other guy out there a huge favor to give Natsumi a taste of her own medicine."
Toshiro actually shrugged, ordering another beer. "Eh…she could be knocked down a few pegs if you asked me."
"I still don't see why I should do it." Akito said, leaning back in his seat and crossing his arms. "Seems like my time would be better used doing what I always do instead of courting some chick I'm not even legitly interested in."
Ryo actually smirked, "Really? You're not even slightly interested in a woman who could be more conniving and manipulative than you? Are you really going to let yourself be outdone by a woman…or are you going to prove us wrong? Cause' I don't think you can do it."
The redhead laughed and nodded, taking his new drink. "I don't think he can either. But whatever."
"Hey now." The ebony haired man sat up at this. "Don't go assuming stuff. I could totally pull this off. I bet I can even get her to stay with me for longer than a month, as is apparently her record with men."
"Then why are you saying no?" Vincent asked. "Are you scared?"
"Fine." Akito glared. "I'll do it." he said, causing the other man to smile happily.
They all nodded until Toshiro cleared his throat. "But…you can't sleep with her."
"Why not?" the Uchiha asked, looking to his best friend.
He sighed. "If you do, we're not friends anymore. That's my little sister and I won't have it."
Haru scratched his head, lost in thought. "How come you weren't worried when Vincent was with her or threaten him?"
"Because," Toshiro glared at them. "Akito's my best friend. And I hate Vincent. Plus I knew Natsumi wouldn't allow him into her bed. I only tolerate him cause' he's somewhat amusing."
"Well." Vincent said, crossing his arms.
Akito sighed. "Fine, I won't sleep with her. Promise."
"Good. Other than that you have free reign. But I won't help you in your false wooing." He said, taking another swig.
"Eh, I heard enough from Vincent and Kyo to have a good idea on how to woo her." The ebony haired man said, finishing off his beer.
Kyo held his hands up. "Hey, I want no part in this. If Satomi finds out, I'm dead."
Haru nodded, laughing. "Yeah. She'd be so pissed. I don't know if she'd stay with you."
"Probably not." Toshiro sighed.
"Exactly, which is why I'm not going to help. I plan on marrying her some day, and I'm not gonna screw this up." The blonde said.
"Yeah." Ryo rolled his eyes. "You're going to marry a supermodel."
Toshiro leaned back against the back of his chair and met his best friend's green gaze. "I will only help you once and this is it. My sister doesn't get with anyone new before a week. And she always hits the Viper club every Friday night."
"Got it." Akito nodded. "Thanks."
"Just beware my friend." He said, standing from his seat and setting down his half empty glass, along with enough bills to cover everyone's tab. "I have an uneasy feeling about this. But I'm off, Minako wants me home by eleven so I can feed her new pet and I had a long day. But I hate that freakin' parrot, it's so annoying. And it speaks…" he shivered.
"Dude, just open a window and accidentally leave its cage door open." Vincent shrugged. "Bye bye birdie."
"Because, I actually care about my girlfriend for reasons other than the sex. Something you wouldn't understand." Toshiro smirked, waving at them as he walked off.
Haru moved around the table and slid next to Akito, a devious smirk on his face. "So…how you going to do it?"
Akito smirked. "Wouldn't you like to know. The master never reveals his secrets."
"Just make sure you rip her heart out of her pretty little chest." Vincent said.
Haru rolled his eyes. "Try not to be too mean. She's a lady after all."
"Yeah, yeah. I know." Akito sighed, waving off his friend's concern.
"Well I'm tired of this." Ryo said, getting up as well and leaving without another word.
Haru just watched him leave and leaned closer to his friend. "So, so, so? What are you going to wear?"
Akito leaned away from the brunette, giving him an odd look. "What are we, chicks? I'll just wear whatever." He shrugged, standing. "Now if you don't mind, I have some work to do so that I can waste time wooing Natsumi." He said, walking off.
"I'm gonna go get me some pussy." Vincent stood and walked over to one of the women by the bar, leaving Kyo and Haru at the table.
Kyo looked around a bit awkwardly before perking up. "Hey, you wanna go sing karaoke? I know this great place." He smiled.
"Yup!" Haru cheered, holding up a hundred dollar bill. "And it's on Akito." He snickered. "He thinks I just like invading his space for nothing."
"He thinks he's so smart just cause' he's a lawyer." Kyo snickered, standing and wrapping his arm around the brunette's shoulder. "Come on dude, let's go sing the night away!" he declared. They left the bar then, off to go and sing amazing songs by old or deceased artists.
