AN: Okay. So I've been given the ideas of Kyuubi being a Wedding Planner, so he can bitch for no reason at all, or a Private Detective asked to help catch the Black Prince. Ah…. I think I'm going to go with the wedding planner idea from Alrye. Nothing personal, but this job gives Kyuubi more opportunities to harass and threaten Sasuke without the worry of never being away from his sweet little brother!
Naru: WTH? I don't need to be baby sat by Kyuubi!
Animelover: Oh my, he got out of Sasuke's room again… Sasuke, come get your priso- I mean lover. *grins evilly as Naruto is dragged back into the room with the sign 'Do not disturb' on the door*
But he knows people in high places so he can cause a bunch of trouble. Enter Shukaku! Kyuubi and Naruto's uncle and his three wonderful, overprotective children! Now on with the mayhem!
Warning and Declaimer: All in chapter 1.
Whoever said school was a simple affair should go to hell. Or at least that's what Naruto thought as he stared at the mass of people in the parking lot from inside his the safety of his car. Already a bunch of car crazy idiots were gathering around, talking, and it was driving Naruto up the yin-yang. Finally, one of the idiots touched his baby and he snapped. He got out of the car so fast; the poor boy didn't know what happened till he felt the throbbing in his cheek and the little blond dude standing over him with a raised fist.
"Don't you dare touch my baby, or I'll make sure you end up in the nurse's office." He growled. He grabbed his bag from the passenger seat and made his way to the office of the school. Most of the kids parted for him, not wanting to be hit like the poor guy on the ground. He got into the office and the lady behind the desk stared at him.
Naruto was handed his schedule and map and grumbled under his breath as he made his way to his locker. Outside Sasuke had just arrived. The lot emptied almost completely and he was left alone. He smirked as he made his way down the hall and spotted a mess of blond hair over the crowd. He chuckled at the appearance of the smaller boy.
Naruto had woken up late due to the fact his alarm was not set and Kyuubi was a stay at home wedding designer. His hair was a mess, he had to quickly brush it but it didn't help tame the wild mess of golden spikes that continued to stick up in strangest ways. His shirt was pulled on hastily, but the rainbow was clearly seen, but the words 'Gay Pride' was on the back and covered by his quickly thrown on orange and black sweater, which unfortunately had a broken zipper. His black pants were barely staying on his waist because in his rush he had forgotten his belt.
Sasuke was enjoying the view of Naruto's ass when Kiba jumped onto Naruto. He growled but stood back to watch. I've lived for over one-hundred years; I can spare a little more patience. He reminded himself.
"Yo! Naruto, so how you liking the high school?" Kiba asked as he leaned against the locker next to the blond.
Naruto rolled his eyes as the spiky haired demon as he got his required items. "I just got here, and already I had to punch someone for touching my baby." He told the other boy as Kiba's friends showed up in a group.
"Oh, yeah! Naruto, I want you to meet the gang. You already know Hinata. This is Shino, Chouji, Shikamaru, Tenten, and the guy with the weird smile is Sai." Kiba introduced. Shino wore a pair of round, blackened out glasses and had most of his face covered by the collar of his jacked, spiky black hair that reminded Naruto of Kiba's but shorter. Chouji was a big guy, Naruto wouldn't say fat, but he was big. He had short spiky hair, Naruto was starting to wonder if spiky hair was a trend or something or if it was just something stuck in the gene pool of Konoha, and was munching on a bag of spicy potato chips. Shikamaru had his hands in his pockets and held an air of indifference around him. His brown hair was tied behind his head and made a spiky pony tail. Naruto swore he heard the boy mutter the word troublesome, but ignored him. Tenten was the only other girl besides Hinata. Her hair was pulled into two buns that reminded Naruto of a silly cartoon he'd watched called "Pucca" and her clothing wasn't far off either, with a red shirt and a pair of black pants. Shikamaru seemed to favor green, Chouji brown, Shino off white and black, and Sai was a questionable state. Sai had short black hair and a smile on his face that creped Naruto out. He wore a strange green and black stripped shirt and a pair of off white/grey shorts that went down to his knees.
Naruto back away from his locker and the group of people, "It's nice to meet you all, but I have to go." He said and ran off down the hall.
Sasuke smirked and made his way to follow his overwhelmed blond target to the outside tables by the Science rooms. With a smirk gracing his featured, the raven haired vampire walked towards his prey without making a single sound.
Once he stood behind the smaller teen, he smiled wide enough to show his fangs for a moment. The innocent blond before him had no clue the danger that he was in. "Naruto," He spoke softly, but even so, Naruto yelped and jumped up falling out of the seat and onto the ground. The vampire chuckled as he looked at the boy. "Sorry, didn't mean to scare you."
"Sasuke!" Naruto said happily. A huge smile broke across his face as he got up and dusted off his pants. "Damn it… Kyuubi's gonna kill me for getting a stain on my butt…" He grumbles, "Anyways, it's great to see you Sasuke!"
Sasuke smirks as he sits next to the blond who resumed his seat. "I saw you walking down the halls so I thought I'd see if we have any classes together?" He asked and was happy when Naruto wordlessly handed him his schedule with a bright smile that could rival the sun. "Hey, we have all but two classes together." He noted happily, more classes together, more time to lull him into a sense of security with him.
Naruto smiled as he took his paper back. "That's great. I won't be alone in my classes then. Which ones are different?" He asked looking at his schedule.
"Let's see, where as you have Art and Chemistry, I have Biology AP and Computer Graphics." He said with a small smile.
Naruto looked at the crowds of students that were keeping away from them. He didn't wonder why, but he was grateful for the privacy. "AP, that's going to be a lot of work…" He mumbled and pulled out a folder and put his paper away.
Sasuke leaned his head into the palm of his hand as he faced Naruto. "Come on, first period is on the other side of campus." He said as he pushed up and stood, holding a hand out for the other to take. Naruto gave a goofy grin and took the vampire's hand in one and his bag in the other.
Throughout the day everyone kept away from Naruto, even Kiba and his friends. Everywhere Naruto was, Sasuke was not far and most of the time they were together. Naruto didn't mind. He found himself comfortable in Sasuke's presence where as he felt almost suffocated in the presence of Kiba and all his friends. He added it together as to the fact he'd never enjoyed being around a lot of people to begin with.
Once the day was ending, Sasuke picked Naruto up at his Art room. Naruto gave Sasuke another dazzling smile. Sasuke was sure he'd never grow tired of them either. "Come, I'll walk you out." Sasuke offered. Naruto happily followed after the raven haired male and told him about what he started in art.
"…and the teacher said that I'm a natural. We're starting with mythical creatures. I've always had a fascination with vampires! What about you?"
Sasuke looked at him and wondered if finding Naruto was more than just pure luck. "Vampires are very interesting. I find it even more interesting how many ways they can be portrayed."
"Yeah, but um…Sasuke there was something else…" He started to tail off and this caught the vampire by surprise. The whole day, he had yet to stutter in his presence, why now?
"What is it? If I can help I will." Sasuke assured him.
"Um..Well… We're to do a sketch and a painting of our chosen choice….. And well… I work better if I have a reference… and… Well…" Sasuke prompted the shy blonde, inside he was quite exited, curious even. Naruto took a deep breath, "Iwanttoknowifyou'llbethemodelformyvampire?" He blurted out.
Sasuke, being a vampire understood him, but for appearances pretended he couldn't. "Could you repeat that, it was a little fast." He asked, but couldn't stop thinking how cute Naruto looked when he was blushing.
"I… I want to k-know if you'll b-be the m-model for my… my vampire that I draw….?" He asked again.
Sasuke smiled, "I'd be happy to Naruto, when do you need me over?"
"Um, how about tomorrow after school, that way I can tell Kyuubi we'll be having a guest." He asked. Sasuke agreed and after watching the blonde drive away in the car from the previous shopping day, he left for home. He had a job that night, and it included stealing a very beautiful, very shiny, blue opal from one of the residing museums. The opal is said to be a jewel found during an excavation around an ancient civilization. So Sasuke had much to prepare for before night fell so that he could get home quickly. The quicker the job is done. The quicker I get home, the quicker school starts and ends, the quicker I can get the invitation to Naruto's home and room.
Naruto arrived home a few minutes later than he had thought. He shrugged and grabbed his things. As he opened the door and prepared to tell Kyuubi he was home, he was tackled by a mass of muscles and red hair.
"Naruto! Oh my god, are you okay? You aren't hurt are you? Were you being chased? Were you harassed at school? Is that why you're late? It must be! I'll kill them! Tell me who it was!" Kyuubi started blabbing on about eh held Naruto's face in both of his hands as if inspecting them. Naruto noted that his brother had on his business clothes, which consisted of a white button down silt shirt, a red tie with a strange symbol on it he had sewn into it, and a pair of smooth black dress pants.
"KYUUBI!" Naruto yelled getting the elder's attention. "Nothing happened. I was asking a friend if he would help me with my art project. Which reminds me, would it be okay if he came over tomorrow? He's going to be my model for a vampire sketch." He asked as he was finally aloud up to stand.
Kyuubi stared at his brother, and then started to laugh as he led him inside. "Yes, yes, of course! He can come over. Sorry I overreacted." He said as he walked towards the living room. Naruto followed him and saw on the couch a stunned couple. He guessed they were there to sort out their wedding with Kyuubi because he refused to work anywhere but from home.
The male had a pair of glasses that were falling off his nose and quickly straightened out when he realized he was being stared at. "I apologize, but I would like to get this planed please Mr. Uzamaki." He said in a gruff, formal voice.
Naruto snorted, and that brought the woman back to life it seemed. "Oh my god! I didn't know you where married. Is this your son?" She asked and that made Kyuubi spit out his coffee and start chocking and Naruto to stumble and get his foot caught on the rug causing him to fall head first into the wall.
"No, no, oh heavens no. Naruto is my little brother! I am very much single, and very much as gay as he is."
"Kyuubi!" Naruto yelled blushing. He glared at his sibling and ran down the hall to his room.
Kyuubi coughed to get the couples attention. "Right, well, now that my brother is safely home, back to business. You said that you wanted to go with the White Lily design for the dress and decorations, with baby blue flower theme, scented candles and incense to be lit, a sea food and BBQ mix meal serving, and a three layer vanilla pudding filled cake with elaborate designs to match the chosen themes, correct?" At the two nods he received, Kyuubi nodded back, "Well, that will add up to the mix theme bundle and I'll have it all planed out for…?"
"Three weeks from now." The lady said. Kyuubi wrote it down in his planner. He guessed that they had had this planed, but had procrastinated with getting the planner.
"Right, I'll have it all set by then and give you call. Pleasure doing business with you." With a formal shake of a hand to both the man and woman the deal was made and the two left. Kyuubi sighed loudly as he leaned against the door. Naruto came from his room and laughed at his brother.
"I'll help you with the cake." Kyuubi gave him a gratefull look and went to lie down on the couch. Pulling his laptop onto his lap, Kyuubi pulled up the search engine and started surfing around for cake ideas, caterers, and a shop with a huge selection of candles, incense, and white lilies.
Naruto scoffed at his brother and went to the kitchen to make a light dinner for the two of them. Who would have thought, the once great detective Kyuubi Uzamaki, retired early to care for his baby brother after their parents death, only to take up a job as a renowned wedding planner. Naruto smiled in pride though. Although it was odd and seemed like a waste to those who knew him as a detective, except to his brother, Naruto was proud of his brother. If you wanted a wedding that was unlike any other, or had a specific theme with only a few twist or changes, Kyuubi was the guy to make it happen.
Over dinner that night, Naruto realized how demanding, and vague, the couple had been with Kyuubi. They gave him nothing to go off but the food, lilies, and has to have baby blue. Naruto scoffed again.
"Kyuubi, no wonder you get all the weird couples. There's just no way a normal planner would go off of half the stuff they asked for and take the time to find a plan that they'll stick with."
Kyuubi rolled his eyes and replied that's why he's so renowned and rich. Naruto scoffed, they weren't rich, but they lived a comfortable life and he was happy.
Later at night, while the house was silent, except for Naruto's soft snoring and Kyuubi's rapid typing, the Black Prince sat outside Naruto's window with his raven. He smiled as Demitri cawed once.
Sasuke shook his head and left just as quickly and silently as he appeared. Running atop the roofs and jumping over allies, he made his way to his destination, The Jewel Museum. With a wide smirk, he manipulated the shadows to open the skylight windows for him. With the signal, raven flew in to take out the necessary cameras and other alarms. Once his partner returned, the Black Prince made his entrance into the building. Avoiding the floor, he made his way to the display case. With a wave of his hand, the trip lights were shown and he chuckled, they had left the opal wide open. He pulled out a sheet of paper and a raven's feather, carefully; he replaced the opal with the items. Wrapping the opal in a velvet cloth, he tucked it into a drawstring pouch attached to his belt and with a sharp whistle, he and Demitri were off as the cops made their way to the scene.
All that they found was the feather and note that read: "Thank you for bringing such a rare gem to me. Do not worry; I'll take care of it from now in. –The Black Prince"
Once home, Sasuke dressed in his night clothes and placed the pouch on his desk beside four gold wires. He was from a family of old traditions, and that included courting. He was skilled with his hands, and planned to use the opal to make a necklace for Naruto. It was small enough that he would be able to weave and braid the four wires around it to hold it in place. He was sure it would be a perfect gift to follow up on the uchiwa necklace he gave the blond not too long ago. With the thought of seeing his soon to be blond, he climbed into bed to sleep. Wondering thoughts of why the boy would need a model for a sketch, but it wasn't like Sasuke was about to complain. He'd gain entrance into the private home and be able to go back whenever he pleased. But of course, he wouldn't break in, but he would be able to get in if a door or window were to be left open.
Demitri cawed again as he nestled down in his nest.
Meanwhile across town where Kyuubi was currently waiting after receiving a surprise phone call, a small family of four demons shivered as they stepped out of the plane from Suna city. I've got a bad feeling about this…. "Shukaku! Temari! Kankuro! Gaara!" Kyuubi called waving the family over. The four smiled tiredly. I'll sort it out later. Might just be the jet lag. The eldest, Shukaku, thought. The sun tanned male walked over to the smaller red his, his long golden locks a many shades darker than Naruto from the constant sun was tied away from his eyes.
"Kyuubi, it is wonderful to see you so well and healthy." He said calmly embracing the younger male in a hug. Kyuubi returned it them hugged his cousins. Temari returned the hug warmly, her blonde hair up in spiked pigtails; somehow the demon gene almost completely skipped over her, but gave her heightened senses, like Kyuubi. Kankuro returned the hug a bit shyly, embarrassed to be seen doing so, his brown hair was spiked almost as messily as Naruto's own, but a bit longer. Kyuubi had to say, he looked much better now that he was out of that whole kabuki make-up stage he went through, wait, spoke too soon, in Kankuro's hand was his make-up bag. Gaara surprised Kyuubi by giving him a hug and a small smile. Usually the quiet red head kept to himself with the only exception being Naruto. His short red hair did nothing to hide the tattoo of the kanji love on his forehead. Kyuubi shook his head wondering how he talked his father into letting him get that done.
"Well, come on you guys. Let's get you home and settled. Naruto's sleeping, but Gaara, you can go right in their like usual. Kankuro, we'll sit up the extra bed in Naruto's room tomorrow, so for now you'll have to take the couch. Uncle, you can take my bed for the night. I'll be up working on another wedding plan I have to do." The four rolled their eyes.
"Dude, cuz, I know you're awesome an all, but you take the strangest request for these people." Kankuro said. Kyuubi laughed as he drove them all home and got them as settled as he could this late at night.
"We'll get everything else sorted tomorrow, and you kids," Kyuubi said ruffling his younger cousins' hair one at a time, "signed up for school with Naruto." They all groaned, but smiled. That meant that they could scare away anyone who tried to flirt with their cousin.
Before the Uzamakis' had moved to Konoha, they had been living in Suna near the four demons, and the huge demon city just seemed to be no fun without their own personal sun there anymore. So it was a family decision to pack up and move in with their nephews/cousins.
With all the younger ones in bed, Gaara curled up with Naruto contently, Temari sleeping soundly in the purple twin bed of the spare room, and Kankuro passed out of the couch with a blanket Naruto had made draped over him. Shukaku made his way to bed and was able to talk Kyuubi into going to bed as well.
With the reminder of having to explain this to Naruto in the morning, Kyuubi groaned as he rolled over and passed into the land of oblivion and dreams.
AN: Yes, well… I started this and then it was like…. 4 in the morning so I stopped and finished it today…. And well… I got going… Then I wanted to end it but kept going… So… Yeah, here you all go my reader! Shukaku and the sand siblings have moved into the Uzamaki's small house!
