Chapter 1
"Idiot!"
This was the second time in so many days Itachi had found himself being insulted by the female ANBU, who by the way answered to him. Though he supposed he had deserved this insult, after all he knew better than to antagonise his wife. After all they had been together for just on 2 years now and he knew her temper almost as well as he knew himself, though at times she did surprise him. She glared at him one last time and stamped over to the door, before she left the room completely she snapped back at him "ANBU squad seven IS taking this mission I don't care if you don't like it" then she was gone.
Itachi just shook his head and covered his eyes with one hand, some days Katsumi really did show how independent she was from the clan…from him when she was on duty and it irked him at times. But he knew this would happen, this was one of the main reasons the clan held tight to the tradition of Matriarchs being removed from active duty. It caused less trouble that way. But again he would never take her from her team. Sighing again he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. Seconds later he opened them again and focused on the man standing in the door way. Shisui smiled at him and stepped in to the room, sitting in the chair opposite Itachi he spoke "Katsumi giving you trouble again?"
"That obvious?"
"Only your wife can get under your skin like that, what did she do this time?"
"She took a mission I didn't want her to; also she dragged the rest of her team along for the ride"
Shisui laughed and slid further in to the chair "I always said she would give you a challenge, seems I was right" he then stopped laughing and spoke in a much more serious tone "You can't keep trying to protect her Itachi she is ANBU and your wife, she knows what she can and can not handle, your just being over protective"
Itachi didn't answer his older cousin, he knew on some level the elder Uchiha was right but on another he knew Katsumi needed to be watched, ever since the truth came out about her father two years ago she had been less than stable in terms of work, she had taken only the most dangerous and long lasting missions, almost like she was trying to put space between herself and the truth. He knew this was a hard time for his wife, Aoi Haruno had approached her once he had found out his daughter knew the truth and had tried to speak with her. It had not ended well; Katsumi had literally thrown the man from the house then spent 6 months making it up to her half sister Sakura. Eventually Sakura and Katsumi had made up but Katsumi still refused to speak with her father. It had been a trying time for everyone involved and had at time put strain on his marriage. He knew eventually he would have to speak with Katsumi about this but right now he wanted her to vent out her frustrations with missions. Looking back at Shisui he nodded and spoke "I know I am overly protective of her but she is my wife"
"And she is a Shinobi" countered his cousin.
"I know" replied Itachi as he stood and walked to the window behind his desk.
He heard Shisui move, the older male said one last thing "Perhaps you should concentrate more on the fact that she is a Shinobi and not just your wife" then he left.
Itachi just stood looking out of the window for a long while wondering how he would approach his wife about this and if he would come out of it with out getting told he was an idiot again… he hoped so.
