8:10Am. He Usually woke at 7:10, work was at 8:00Am.

Tardy.

Tardy is what our favorite eldest raven was today.

Just his luck. He could've sworn he set his alarm last night. That thought went out the window quick enough though when he actually remembered that no, no he didn't set it last night cause just like he swore he set it is the same way he swore he didn't need the damn alarm.

Everyday he woke up before the alarm. Well everyday except today and for that reason Itachi Uchiha was pissed.

Of course he wouldn't have any significant repercussions Fugaku was police chief after all but that didn't really mean a damn thing to him.

Just like his younger brother he valued punctuality.

He came to a stop at a red light with his phone also beeping at the same time alerting him of two text messages one from Fugaku and one from his lovely brother in law Naru.

His father inquiring if he was okay which was to be expected considering Itachi was never late and Naru reminding him of his new restaurant opening and how he just needed to be there or it wouldn't be the same.

With a "yes" to his father and a "I will" to his brother in law the light changed to a vibrant green and he was on his way.

A few lights later and a few swears to the cars in front of him and he was at work, his father already in front of the police station ready to greet him once he finished parking his car.

"Son good to see you this morning " said Fugaku smiling warmly.

"Same to you father" was Itachi's dry reply.

"When you get settled in son i wanna speak to you in my office, its of little importance but I still want to address it" spoke Fugaku as he and Itachi walked in the station.

Everyone greeted them as they made their way to each of their designated areas's with the raven haired pair nodding in acknowledgment in response.

Itachi sat at his desk first , his father already closing the door to his office while the eldest brother started going through the paperwork that was on his desk and skimming through after realizing that the subjects were of little importance. He started to make his coffee and once it was finished proceeded to his fathers office.

Once inside Fugaku looked up motioning for Itachi to sit.

"Itachi my boy , what seems to be troubling you?" Asked Fugaku.

The raven thought about the question for a moment. At first he was just going to reply a dry no but he knew that if his father was asking him then he knew something was wrong already, Fugaku always knew when him and Sasuke were troubled.

"To be completely honest with you father i'm not sure, I seem to be a little off nowadays. I'm sure I'll be fine no need to worry" said Itachi honestly.

"I have noticed that lately you do seem to be a little off lately my son but for you being off isn't a word the anyone would associate you with and that's enough cause for concern" said Fugaku.

"How about you come with me and Minato to the park tomorrow , we'll be babysitting the triplets for Naru and Sasuke tonight and tomorrow" asked Fugaku hoping his son would take the offer.

"While it would be wonderful to see my niece and nephews father I already promised Naru I would be at the opening to his restaurant tonight and I was hoping to take the day off tomorrow" replied the raven.

"Even better , oh and about that matter of importance, son when you are back to work I want to extend your service to what you might call a body guard. I'll send you the information later" said Fugaku basically pushing the eldest raven out his office.

Who the hell was so important that his father chose to make him his personal bodyguard anyway? they got offers like that all the time but this would be the first time his father had actually chose to accept one of those requests.

And knowing that made Itachi more on edge than anything.

on top of that someone stole the blueberry muffin he left in the break room fridge.

Today was definitely gonna be a long one.

Authors note- I really am excited to expand this universe even more than i did when i first began writing and just as one of my reviewers pointed out i left Itachi on pretty much stand by and tbh after reading my recently completed project it got me out the funk that is writers block but enough of my boring story HAPPY READING.
