Hi everyone!
Thank you all for your encouragement over the first chapter! And a special thank you to .585 who has been beyond supportive and incredibly helpful to me!
Here is chapter two!
Please enjoy!
So lately, it seemed like all blond-haired men were beginning to grate on Itachi's nerves.
"What's got you so twitchy, huh?"
Itachi raised one eyebrow at the blond in front of him, moving to his side in order to get to the tea leaves on the counter top.
"You're being more glum than usual, and that's saying something!" The blond smirked, leaning his hip against the cupboard.
"It's none of your concern, Deidara." Itachi replied.
"Well your obvious dark mood is really interfering with my creative side, so sort whatever it is out, yeah?" He winked then left Itachi alone in the kitchen area of their study space.
"He has a point, Itachi." A new voice said.
Itachi recognised it as his friend, Kisame.
"You've never been one to let something effect you so obviously. You still not getting any quality time with Hinata?" The taller male winked but seemed to shrink back ever so slightly at the intense glare he received for his comment.
"My apologies, Kisame." Itachi sighed, running one hand through his hair, "I'm aware that my mood hasn't been great recently. I will try and do better."
"Don't apologise, Itachi, just do something. You're starting to scare the post-grads, you know they've been avoiding the kitchen for the last few days?" He laughed "Not that that bothers me, more space for us."
Itachi gave his friend a nod of acknowledgment. "Thank you, Kisame, I will say something to them soon."
"You know, if you just want alone time you can just use my place. I'm only there to sleep anyway."
This time Kisame physically shivered when Itachi made eye-contact.
Itachi arrived home later that same evening, not surprised to find his apartment empty.
He knew Sasuke's work day ended over an hour ago so he assumed the younger Uchiha had decided to stay out for a while with his friends.
The apartment was apparently all his for the next while.
He quickly sent a brief text to Hinata, asking if she was free and available to come over.
Itachi had once asked why he was never invited to her home, to which she responded that she was currently living with her cousin and his girlfriend. Her cousin seemed to have a 'no boys allowed in the apartment' rule regarding the younger woman, so out of respect Hinata had never brought Itachi over.
The buzzing of Itachi's phone indicated he had received a reply.
Hinata:
I'm glad to hear you had a productive day! :)
I am out with Sasuke and Naruto and a few others right now, but I can come by later, if it is not too late!
I will see you then! :)
Itachi grimaced, even when they were not in his apartment, they still consumed her time.
This would have to come to a stop.
Eventually the trio of friends arrived back to the apartment, just after 8p.m.
"Hey Itachi!" Naruto greeted, one arm slung around the shoulders of the younger Uchiha "We went to see the new Avengers movie! It was great! Though the girls were all crying at the end!" He laughed, throwing himself down on the singular armchair across from where Itachi was sitting.
"You cried too, idiot." Sasuke commented, taking a seat on the floor beside his friend.
"I did not! I just got something in my eye!"
The couch dipped down as Hinata took a seat beside her partner.
"It was a very emotional scene," she smiled, "it's ok to admit you were upset, Naruto."
"I wasn't upset I just got something in my eye!"
"Idiot." Sasuke commented. "What did you do then, Itachi?"
"I decided to watch some television for the afternoon and relax. Hidan recommended some new show, but I lost interest quickly." He answered, leaning slightly more towards the young woman beside him, gently brushing their shoulders together.
He could almost feel the girl's temperature rise through her clothing.
He smiled.
"Ok, well Sasuke and I are gonna play some Mario in his room, if either of you want to join?" The blond announced, turning to Hinata.
Itachi twitched.
Hinata gave a small shake of her head.
"Maybe later, Naruto, but thank you for the offer." She declined.
"Suit yourself!"
With that the two left the living area and headed towards the younger brother's room.
As soon as they left, Itachi turned Hinata, smiling warmly at her.
He softly lifted her chin with his hand and pressed his lips briefly against hers.
"Hi." He smiled, adoring the way the blush rose across her cheeks.
"Hi." She smiled in return.
The two settled down onto the couch together then, briefly discussing their days, Itachi's arm loosely slung over the back of the seat.
Eventually they decided to watch some television together, settling on a popular sit-com.
As time went on, the events on the T.V were being completely ignored as Hinata ended up between Itachi's body and the back of the couch.
Their lips were locked in soft, deep kisses. Her hands wrapped comfortably around his neck while his hand rested gently on her him, his thumb softly skidding over the skin left exposed by the raised top she wore.
He could feel her breathing increase as his hand began to move upwards and under her loose top, he smirked into the kiss.
Her own hands had moved into his hair, releasing it of its tie and running her fingers through the long, dark strands.
He pulled away slowly, loving the bright blush covering her cheeks and the way her slightly swollen lips curved into a pout.
"My room?" he asked, sitting up.
She just nodded and took his hand as he stood, leading her into his room.
He quickly closed the door and pulled her into him, his hands holding her hips firmly as he once again invaded her mouth.
They made their way towards his bed, losing her hoodie along the way.
When he finally had Hinata under him, he quickly moved his mouth from her lips to her neck, placing heavy kissed on the exposed skin.
Her hands made their way under his top, feeling the muscles underneath her soft fingertips twitch slightly as she moved across them.
She moaned quietly as he bit into the skin above her collarbone, sucking gently.
He knew better than to leave a mark, but the soft noise she made in response really made him want to.
His right hand had once again moved under her top, slowly creeping upwards towards her chest.
She gasped again as his hand brushed past a sensitive spot just under her left breast while he continued to suck on that same spot on her neck.
Her own hands guided his face back up to meet hers as her lips merged onto his.
His hips settled into her own pelvis as her slim legs wrapped around his waist.
He could feel his body react to her encouragement and just as he was about the push his hand under her bra, a knock sounded on his door.
"Hinataaaa," Naruto called.
Hinata jerked suddenly, pushing her boyfriend off her and quickly fixing her top.
"Y-yes, Naruto?" she called back, coughing lightly.
Itachi sat up beside her, hands running through his dark hair as the young blond pushed the door open.
"I need you to play with me, Sasuke keeps complaining that I'm 'no good' and he's bored! Please, Hinata?" The blond had one hand behind his head, grinning at the flustered girl before him.
Itachi mentally questioned why his brother and Naruto couldn't just do what most hormonal lovers did when alone and save the video games for later when Itachi needed to sleep, instead of keeping him awake with their 'quiet' make-outs and let Itachi have his own fun when he actually had a chance.
Hinata almost said no, but looking into those gorgeous blue eyes, how could she?
She smiled back at the blond, "Of c-course, I'll be right in!"
Itachi sighed in frustration and fell back onto the bed.
"I'll be as quick as I can." Hinata promised, kissing him briefly on the forehead as she gathered up her hoodie from the floor, fixed her appearance and left him alone in his bed.
As Itachi lay there looking up at the ceiling, he sighed loudly.
He returned back to the living area and took up his phone.
Itachi:
Kisame, I may need your assistance with something tomorrow.
He smirked when his friend responded with a thumbs up emoji.
