Everyone sat in their seats and the food was finally served. It was a rectangular table and the seating arrangements were as follows; Kakashi at one end then, Iruka, Naruto, and Haku at the other end then, Sasuke, and ending with Itachi. (Think about a rectangle. Kakashi and Haku are at the ends and, Iruka and Naruto on one side, with Itachi and Sasuke). Even though they were royalty, Itachi knew what was too much and an extra long table for two people was a bit much. Since they had guests from time to time it was a moderate length.
We've yet to meet Sasuke, right? Sasuke looked like a younger version of Itachi. He had the same black hair and mysterious black eyes. He had pale skin like many people of that land had. His build was muscular but not heavily bulky, just enough to be intimidating. He wore simple tight blue-jeans and a white short-sleeved shirt that contrasted nicely with his hair. Like his brother, he was also a son of Satan.
'So this is who Itachi and Kakashi were talking about.' Sasuke figured in his head as he scanned their guests… well, guest, since his mind hadn't registered Haku's presence yet.
Earlier, Kakashi made a surprise visit to Sasuke's room. He just popped out of no where and started talking about the guests, mostly about some cute blonde boy named Naruto, in the house (mansion). Sasuke had already made plans to visit them when his brother said that the two were 'interesting'. Anything that obtained his older brother's attention deserved a looking at. Kakashi just wouldn't shut up about it and told him that he (Kakashi) told Naruto that Sasuke wanted to have a dinner with him and his cousin.
Sasuke was wondering what was so special about this guest that Kakashi wouldn't stop talking about it. Now he knew.
'Kakashi sure knows my tastes.' He mused with a small smirk.
'He's like a little minx.' Sun-shine, blonde hair that looks like he just rolled out of bed, deep, wide, blue eyes, beautiful caramel tanned skin, muscular body but not bulky, a more lithe body that is appealing to the eye, bubbly personality, not at all like the boring blobs that Itachi has to deal with all day, and he could actually tolerate listening to him babble since his voice wasn't shrill. The childish little actions, coupled with the not quite baritone voice, made him exceptionally cute. 'But that sinful little body makes me want to do all sorts of naughty things to him.' Sasuke vaguely wondered if Itachi still had that prank gift filled with sex toys that he got him.
Haku glared at Sasuke from across the large dinner table. First, he insulted his precious cousin and then he started giving off these weird vibes. Whatever they were, he didn't like them. His heated gaze slipped from Sasuke to the man he had met a few days before: Mr. Sex on legs himself. He turned away quickly when he was met with burning black eyes. Itachi was staring at him. He dared another glance. 'Ack! He's looking at me like a piece of meat!' He turned away again, fidgeting in his mental turmoil.
Itachi on the other hand was having so much fun making his prey hide. The look of panic and embarrassment was so tasty; he wanted to lick it away to a more pleasured expression. From what he's seen and heard he was also a very kind person (Stalker!). Perfect. And with that, his mind was decided. He smirked at the cute boy at the end of the table.
"You will be my wife." He declared smugly.
You could hear a pin drop at the silence.
"What?" Haku twitched.
"You heard me. You will be my wife."
"Hell no!" He shouted, slamming his hands on the table. However, with the force he used, it made the table unstable and knocked the food to one side.
Right.
On.
Naruto.
Everyone else jumped out of the way, but Naruto was enjoying his ramen so much that failed to notice the many bowls and dishes coming his way in time to move.
He sat there covered head to toe with food and a bowl of spaghetti on his head that was tilted ever-so-slightly and made him look so adorable.
All was silent. Wait…was that a…-sniff-.
"Naru! I'm so sorry!" Haku cried a bit melodramatically and ran to the aid of his cousin.
Crystalline drops of tears weld in Naru's eyes. Sasuke swore he was going to die of a nose bleed. Itachi was enjoying watching Haku get so worked up and his little brother's expression of 'restraint', if you could call it that. More like, 'barely hanging on'. Iruka was torn between cleaning up the mess and joining Haku in fussing over Naruto. He chose the latter in the end. Kakashi was in the same ballpark as Itachi except, instead of Haku, he was watching Iruka.
Naru was just sitting on his butt, on the verge of tears, and looking to a space a little bit away from him. There, about three feet away, on the ground, was a tipped over cup of ramen.
His ears drooped as he picked up the cup in a 'moment of silence' for the death of his beloved.
Haku took the bowl off of his head and a stray noodle landed on his nose. Sasuke really, really wanted to eat that noodle right off of his face. 'He looks, literally, eatable.' He thought. Naruto innocently stuck out his tongue and sucked it in, smiling as he did so. 'He has to be doing that on purpose. He can't be that naïve, can he?'
"Haku –sniff- my…my..." 'Your what? Whatever it is, I'll get it for you. Just name it.' Sasuke thought. 'Ah, what the hell? No I wouldn't! I most certainly will not. But just look at him…' (Nomi: Denial! XD)
"My ramen!" He cried, hugging Haku's leg.
Inner Sasuke fell back. 'He's such a… such a…'
"Dobe."
"Teme! What was that?!" Naru shot back.
"Language, Naru!" Haku reprimanded.
"Sorry." He muttered.
Haku turned his attention back to the mess. He felt really guilty and looked at Iruka who looked slightly stressed.
"I'm sorry Iruka-san. I'd like to help if I could."
Iruka looked up, about to say 'no', when he saw the guilt-stricken face. He knew that if he declined the offer, it would make him feel worse, so he simply nodded his head and instructed him on what he could do.
"That's nice of you to help Ru-ru, Haku." Naruto smiled.
'Ru-ru? That's so cute!' Kakashi giggled on the inside and decided to use that as his new pet name for Iruka.
He crouched down next to Naruto. "You need a bath now." He sighed and looked up. "Sasuke, help him out. He doesn't know where thing are and he might need help with his stitches." Kakashi hoisted Naru up and shooed him over to Sasuke.
Naruto grudgingly followed Sasuke up the stairs. He was pouting like only a Naruto could. His ears twitched sporadically because of the gunk in his hair. His lower lip was jutted out and he had splotches of food on his person. Sasuke thought it was horribly cute.
They finally made it to the bathroom. Naruto was about to go in when he noticed that Sasuke was still there. He stared at him, trying to telepathically tell him to leave. When it was obvious that Sasuke wasn't going to leave he snapped.
"What the HELL are you still doing here?!" He yelled.
"Language, Naru." Sasuke mocked Haku previous tone.
Naruto glared at him and flipped him the bird while walking into the bathroom. Sasuke stood there and laughed, then followed him in. The blonde already had his jacket and wrap off and was working on his pants when he turned around and blushed.
"Why are you in here?!" He squealed, falling on the toilet seat in shock.
'That was incredibly girly.' Sasuke mused, wondering if Naruto himself noticed it. That would be an affirmative seeing how he stood up indignantly with his arms crossed.
"You heard Kakashi. He told me to help you. I'm only listening to my teacher. It's not like I want to." Sasuke scoffed, knowing full well that if it were any other circumstance, he would've ignored the silver haired man.
"Whatever." Naruto walked over to the shower and turn the faucet somewhere between warm and hot.
Sasuke just sat on the sink and watched Naruto take his pants off.
Inner Sasuke- Whheeeee! Yay! Strip tease! Victory! –Running around in circle and jumping up and down- (I can totally imagine this! xD)
He finally got to the boxers and you could here Sasuke's nails digging into the granite of the sink.
"Turn around." Naruto deadpanned.
Sasuke could only force out a very smart, "wha?"
"I said, 'turn around'." Naruto faced Sasuke and glared.
The Raven turned around grudgingly and fumed inside.
Inner Sasuke- Ah! Fate is but a cruel mistress! Why, Naru? Why?! –Lying on the ground, pounding the floor with his fists and crying, aka, a temper tantrum-
He heard the bath water being disturbed and turned around to see Naru settling into the water. Crouching next to the tub and he starred at his feet, sulking at his misfortune.
Naruto was now washing his hair with the strawberry scented shampoo. The whole scene made Sasuke go into fantasy land. It was when Naruto cleared his throat that he realized that he developed a 'problem' but ignored it in favor of listening to Naruto.
He had a pretty blush on his face, obviously concerned about something.
"Could you, um…" Naru mumbled.
"What was that?" Sasuke asked.
"Could you wash my back?" He asked louder and blushed furiously.
"Why?"
"Some of the spaghetti went down the jacket. Look." He turned around and showed the spots that he couldn't quite reach were caked in sauce.
Sasuke withheld a nose bleed and held out his hand expectantly. "Give me the washcloth." He said with a commanding tone. It was dropped into his hand.
He went to work, scrubbing the little kitsune's back. Sasuke was enjoying every time he'd wash Naru's mid-back because he'd moan lightly and arch himself. Smirking, he went lower and lower still. Under the water and around the tails. Just grazing the beautiful behind when something caught his eye. The stitches.
They looked painful. There was one gash in front and one on his back. A through and through. He looked up at Naruto's face worriedly.
"How did that happen?" He found himself asking.
"What?" Naruto looked genuinely puzzled.
"Those stitches. What happened?" Sasuke asked again.
"What happened?" He repeated.
'"Aniki!" Maki cried as she ran out. Naruto and Haku tried to make a grab for her but she slipped through their fingers. They had no choice and followed her out, to take he back to safety.
The men saw them and three of them, with their guns, took aim and fired. Aki screamed in agony, forced to watch this painful vision. Naruto was shot through the stomach and you could see the bullet come out of the other side. He cried loudly in pain, but tried so hard to remain standing to protect his 'sister'. Haku was shot in the left leg and collapsed to the side. He too tried hard, crawling trying to somehow save his sister.
It was in vain, however, as the little girl stood in the direct path of a bullet aimed straight for her heart. Time passed slowly. Aki wailed on, Naruto sobbed when he saw what was going to happen trying against fate to stop what was inevitable; Haku crawled using his arms army style to reach her.
And then, time resumed normally and hit them all hard. A short high shriek came from Maki's mouth and she fell over, dying immediately.'
Suddenly, his eyes went blank and started sinking into the tub. Sasuke grabbed him as quickly as he could and held him to his chest. He looked at the blonde's closed eyes and wondered what happened.
"Naruto?...Dobe?" Sasuke lightly smacked his cheek a few times and gave up. Standing up, he walked out of the bathroom, swiping a towel as he left.
He called Iruka, Kakashi, and the nurses up, knowing full well that Haku would come too, stalked by Itachi.
Sasuke place Naruto gently on his (Sasuke's) bed and wrapped the towel around his waist.
"What happened, Naru?"
'Hito-otooji…' Naruto mumbled in his sleep.
TBC…
