"It would seem I've been defeated," Itachi said, opening his eyes.
His partner chuckled. "Guess I have, too" he said, "that Guy is really something."
"As is Naruto Uzumaki." The Uchiha added.
"You mean that 9-tails brat? He didn't seem like much last time I-"
"He's grown."
Itachi stood up on the rock he was perched on, and slowly began to unbutton it. As he did so, the wind danced violently with his hair, playing with the stray strands that weren't in his ponytail.
Once his cloak was fully unbuttoned, he let it slip to the ground.
Next, he pulled out his hair tie, letting his silky black mane whip back freely with the wind.
The raven closed his eyes and slowly raised his arms out to either side, as if balancing on the rock he stood upon.
"The wind," he said, "It feels nice."
Kisame gazed upon his partner. Could he be… smiling?
He was! The emotionless, toneless, expressionless murderer was SMILING!
Ever so stealthily, for he feared the wrath of his partner should he notice his movements, the shark man stood up and walked behind his partner. The long black hair lashed at his face while the wind manipulated it, but the breeze also did the courtesy of carrying his sweet scent back.
"It's so nice and quiet out here." Itachi said.
"Sure is," Kisame replied softly, "I really like the view from here."
Hesitantly, he wrapped his arms around the Uchiha's waist. "He didn't kill me"! he thought, shocked, and after resting a moment to make sure, dared to take it a step further, placing his head on the other man's shoulder.
Itachi didn't attack him this time either, making Kisame feel like this was his lucky day.
"Hey, Itachi?" he asked.
"Hn?"
"You're beautiful."
Itachi didn't reply.
"Did you know I had feelings for you?" Kisame tried again.
"Hn."
"Do you, maybe, possibly, have feelings for me too?"
"Hn."
"…You're not very talkative, are you?"
"Hn."
Kisame let out a low chuckle.
"I guess that's good, though." He smiled, exposing his razor sharp teeth, "because if you were, you wouldn't be the man I've fallen in love with."
