Reunion

Sasuke walked into the club, after being told by his near five year old that he needs a day away from everything. So here he is, at a bar, the music thumping, bodies rubbing against one another. When he made his way to the bar, "Can I get a shot?" he asked the bartender. With a sweet smile she got his stuff together as he looked around the club.

Lights were flashing all over the place, in all colors, "Here you go, sweetie!" she yelled over the music. A quick nod, she left to attend the next customer; throwing the shot back he winced as it burned his throat. He noticed that there was someone that was dancing on what appeared to be a stage, if you take away the fence that surrounded them. Putting the glass down on the counter, he made his way to the stage, seeing that there was a person doing a striptease while singing into the mic. The stage was dark, but the multi-colored lights would flash over them. As he got closer, he could see spiky blonde hair, 'Naruto...where are you?' he thought. Then he could see tan skin when more lights passed, tan and flawless if you don't include the small tattoo that was on his upper arm. 'Whose Kyuubi?' as he got closer and closer he could start to outline who this person was. Then all of the lights flew to the band, "Thanks everyone!" yelled Naruto into the mic. His eyes filled with happiness.

"Naruto?" said Sasuke when he stood just in front of the "stage". His eyes locking with the shocked blue eyes that he hasn't seen in five years.

"Sasuke?" he sounded dumbfounded. Both of them looking each other up and down, "It is you!" he whispered.

"Naruto!" yelled the drummer, "We gotta get off, the next band is coming!" With a sharp nod he put the mic back and ran off the stage. Sasuke was busy looking for Naruto on the stage that suddenly became dark, he didn't see Naruto running up to him till Naruto jumped him.

"Teme!" Naruto yelled as he jumped the surprised Uchiha.

'You haven't changed at all have you, Naru?' thought Sasuke as he wrapped his arms around the excited boy. "Naruto, where the hell have you been?" pulling away from Naruto, to realize that he was still shirtless. A blush crawling on Sasuke's face, "Wait, put on a shirt first!" he looked away from Naruto.

"Ahh sorry! But hey wanna get a drink? You know to catch up?" Naruto asked, pointing to the bar.

"Sure," Sasuke couldn't even look at Naruto.

"'Kay!"

"So, how have you been?" Sasuke ordering another shot, Naruto ordering a beer.

"Ok, I guess." Naruto smiled, "I've become a father about a year ago." He looked at Sasuke who stopped midway from drinking his shot.

"You have?" black eyes looking into blue eyes, with shock and worry, "With who?" Sasuke shivered as the drink once again burned his throat.

"Sakura Haruno." whispered Naruto into his beer as he took a sip, Sasuke looking at Naruto with a confused look, "Pink hair girl..." he still stared, sigh "the girl that I had a crush on?" Black eyes widened.

"Oh," he looked away, "she must be lucky..."

"Not if you ask her," Naruto sighed, he placed his head on the counter, "it was a mistake, to her. But to me it wasn't a mistake." he muttered.

"What do you mean?" Sasuke placed a hand on Naruto's shoulder. "She still wasn't with what's-his-name-Lee was she?"

"No, they broke up two years ago, for a month. She called me and wanted to distract herself, so we went clubbing, she was wasted, I on the other hand only had a few beers. I confessed to her, then the next thing I know, we're naked the next morning in my bed." Naruto laughed. "She called me two months later, after telling not to tell anyone what happened, that she was pregnant. With my kid."

"..."

"He's a beauty, Sasu, red spiky hair, he even has Sakura's eyes." he sighed, "Every now and then I see him acting like her, it's quite funny and cute." He laughed.

"Who old is he?" asked Sasuke, fully turned to Naruto who took a gulp from his beer.

"A year next month, he's a talker too!" He gave his smile that spread near ear to ear, his eyes happy.

"Heh," smirked Sasuke, getting Naruto's attention, "my boy is older."

"You're a father, too?!" asked the shocked blonde.

"Yep, Karin got pregnant freshmen year in college," he sighed, "his fifth birthday is next week."

"Oh," Naruto looked away, "congrats!" he tried to smile.

"By the way, Naruto," he looked up, "why did you leave?" Sasuke leaned toward Naruto, Naruto blushed at the closeness.

He gulped, "I was trying to get away from something, and my grandparents were moving away so I went with them."

"Why didn't you tell anyone?" he hissed at Naruto, making him flinch.

"If I did then the reason that I wanted to leave wouldn't let me!" yelled Naruto, glaring at the shocked Uchiha.

Sasuke calmed down, his hand moved to Naruto's whiskered cheek, caressing it, "A letter or note would have been fine too, Naru." He whispered, "I was going to ask you be my best man, Naruto."

"Me? Why? Someone else would have been better!"

"No, I'm not closer to anyone as I am to you, even now! I didn't have a best man at my wedding, no one was good enough." This being said, made Naruto blush, making him as red as a tomato.

"How are you and Karin?" Naruto moved away from Sasuke's hand, he dropped his hand back onto his lap.

"We divorced three years ago," sighed Sasuke, Naruto froze, "on this very day," laughed Sasuke. He turned back to the bar, ordered two beers. "I can't believe my father wanted me to marry her! She was after the money and getting me in bed," he scowled at anything, taking a sip of his beer, handing the other to Naruto. "She's a bitch." He muttered as he drank the rest of the beer in one gulp.

"Woah, slow down!" yelled Naruto as Sasuke was ordering another beer. "You have a kid at home, Sasuke, you can't set a bad example!"

"He told me to get out of the house today, that I needed a distraction myself," sighed Sasuke, fingering his second bottle, "I can't believe that my nearly five year old is telling me, his father, that he needs to go out!"

"Wait!" Naruto put up his hands, "Sasuke, Sasuke Uchiha, the man who doesn't take orders from others nicely is taking orders from his son, who will be five next week? Who are you?" Naruto nearly jumped out of his seat, making fun of his friend. Sasuke laughed, Naruto always knew how to make him laugh, even though he was insulting him, others who tried would end up in the nurse's office, unconscious.

"Shut up, Baka!" said Sasuke as he laughed it off, it was insulting but he couldn't help it the way Naruto said it. Naruto laughed with him, getting back onto his seat. Sasuke felt a vibration from his pocket that held his phone, he pulled it out to see that the call was coming from home. "Shit!" he whispered, he flipped open the phone, "Itachi, what are you doing up?"

"It's one in the morning, father, where are you?" said the small child, all though the child wasn't able to express his emotions well, you could tell by the way he talked. He laughs now and then, his smiles are even more rare.

"Its one? Alright, I'm coming back right now, go to bed, ok?" Naruto looked at him with sad but understanding eyes.

"Ok, but I want pocky!"

Sasuke sighed into the phone, knowing that his son wouldn't listen to him until he got what he wanted. "What flavor?"

"The one that tastes like milk, I want that one, father!"

"Ok, I'll get them ok? Go to bed!" he hung up before turning back to Naruto, who was on the phone with a serious look on his face.

"Are you sure? It could be just a fever, Baa-chan..." he said into the phone, his voice being serious, Sasuke had never heard Naruto like this before.

"What happened?" he whispered into Naruto ear, making it turn red.

"Kyuubi has a fever," he whispered back, "Ok, I'm coming home right now, Baa-chan!" he said into the phone and hung up.

"This brings me back," Naruto looked at him confused, "need a ride?" Sasuke smirked at Naruto, as he tried to remember, then laughed.

"Do you know where the park is?" Sasuke nodded, "I live on the North side of it."

"Huh, really? I live on the South side of the park." Sasuke getting up, he paid for the drinks while Naruto stared at him, "Meet you in the front?" Naruto nodded, getting up they went different ways. Naruto telling his band mates that he had to go home, Kyuubi was sick, and that he was going with an old friend from high school. Sasuke walked outside, found his car, turned it on and pulled up in front of the club just as Naruto was exiting, pulling on his jacket.

"Oh so did you become what you're dad wanted you to be? A lawyer, right?" Naruto clicked on his seat belt.

"Yeah, I have a private practice in the city." Sasuke started to head toward the heart of the city, "What about you? What do you do?" He looked at Naruto with the corner of his eye.

"I help out at the hospital with my grandmother, Tsunade, three days of the week, practice on the days I'm off during the week, and play at the club on the Saturday." He stated, using his fingers.

"What about Sundays?"

"Huh? Oh I go with Kyuubi to the store or to park across the street," he smiled.

"You want to meet at the park tomorrow then?" Sasuke stopped at the light.

"If Kyuubi will feel ok by then, then we'll go." Smiled Naruto.

"Hn."

Naruto and Sasuke didn't talk much after that, when they were on the North side of the park, Naruto pointed to which apartment he lives in. Sasuke parked the car in front of the apartment, he pulled out his card and gave it to Naruto before he left, Naruto gave his number to Sasuke. Sasuke watched as Naruto walked up to the door, he waited till Naruto closed the door behind him, with a small wave before the door came between them. With a small smile, Sasuke drove off to the corner store, bought the pocky, then headed home. Finding his son fast asleep on Sasuke huge bed, hugging his pillow.

Itachi looked nothing like his mother, except the eyes. His eyes were red with three commas in the middle, his ex-wife had red eyes. He still wondered where he got those extra features. His long black hair, normally was in a low ponytail, was now loose. He also had markings that you would see on an older person, not an almost five year old.

Sasuke grabbed his t-shirt and short and went to change in the restroom, he came out and got in bed that had his son in it.

"Mmmm, father?" his red eyes slowly opened, "Where's my pocky?"

Sasuke laughed as he pulled Itachi close to him, having his head on his chest, Itachi grabbed hold of his shirt. "In the kitchen, sleep, Itachi," Sasuke laid on his back, Itachi curled up on him, he looked at the clock to see that it was nearly two in the morning. With a sigh, he drifted off the sleep, glad that he met Naruto again.
