IPOV
I woke up the next morning and smiled at Madara. I kissed his cheek, even though he was still sleeping. I got up, got dressed, and went into my room, smiling that Sasuke was sleeping, and still there. I sat next to him and said, "Sasuke, wake up."
His eyes fluttered open before I even finished the sentence. He was always a really light sleeper, like me. He smiled at me and sat up, yawning.
"Feeling better?"
"Yeah, the headache is finally gone. Can I ask a favor?"
"Sure."
"Can we have a mock battle? I want you to see what I learned since you left." He said, a smile on his face. I smiled.
"Sure, how about after breakfast?" I asked and he nodded. He slipped his shirt back on and we walked downstairs. I felt that my Sharingan was still activated, so I closed my eyes, opening them to show black as night orbs. I always thought that I had rather nice eyes, when they weren't bleeding from a jutsu.
I introduced Sasuke to everyone, who had this knack of automatically making people either love or hate him. They all loved him.
"So, Sasuke, your working with Kakashi huh?" I asked and he nodded, sitting next to me.
"Yeah, he's a good teacher, when he's not reading those porn books when we are battling." That made me laugh.
"He reads those too?" I teased. Sasuke's face was priceless.
"YOU read them?"
"I use to. Still have them, but almost never read them. Maybe I should start again?" I said, shrugging, and he punched my arm. Just then, Madara came out, with no shirt on. I almost got a nose-bleed right then and there, but I just smiled at him.
"Morning."
"Who the hell are you?" everyone else asked. I laughed.
"It's Tobi… but his real name is Madara Uchiha."
"That's impossible…" then I had to explain everything, and keep Madara from touching me under the table and talk to Sasuke at the same time. My life gets a little complicated sometimes. As I was helping clean up after breakfast, Hidan asked me, "What were you two doing last night?"
I felt red creeping up my neck. "What do you mean?"
"Oh come on Itachi, you know what I mean…" the look is his eye told me what I needed to know.
"That's none of your business." I said, too quickly and it gave him his answer.
"It's cool, I'm your friend, so I won't tell anyone." He said and I sighed.
"If you tell anyone…"
"I just said I won't."
I let a smile go across my face and he added, "Oh, and I'm a huge Yaoi fan, so I'm more than okay with this."
I think that my face was redder than a tomato by that point. I punched his arm and he laughed.
I mumbled under my breath and walked out, leaving him laughing. I saw that Madara and Sasuke were talking. I decided to listen before I went in.
"SO, you're my brothers partner right?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes I am."
"Did you ever fight him before?" Sasuke asked, seeming interested with my new boyfriend.
"Yes I did. That boy might be younger than me, but I can't beat him. I think he can read my mind and know what I'm going to do." Madara answered and they laughed.
"No, he's just too good."
"Yeah, but it hasn't been easy for him since he got here…"
"Really?"
"Hell yeah. Having to go on missions everyday when your still a teenager? Then coming home, sleeping for maybe 5 hours then doing the same thing. On top of that he has to get training in and other things that he has to do around the house. Oh, and he insists on doing all of our mission slips. I don't know how he's stayed sane through all of this."
"He did that at home too. He was an Anbu Leader by 12. It's kind of sad that he never got to be a real kid."
"Alright you two, enough with the Itachi pitty session. You know I hate that." I said, standing there, glaring. They turned and smiled.
"Sorry, but we were just wondering how you did it all?"
"It's called work. Maybe you two should try it sometime?"
Madara gave me a sexy look and said, "I did all of the work last night."
I blushed and looked away. I did not want to have to explain to Sasuke later what he meant.
"Oh really big brother. Is that what I heard last night?" he said, smirking and raising an eyebrow. Damnit! I hate it that this kids 17 and he knows what that shit means!
"Come on Sasuke. Let's have that mock battle." I said and he got up and ran over to me. Madara smiled and followed us out to our training ground. I helped Madara make it about a year and a half ago. It was alright, a lot of room to battle!
"If you think that I'm going to go easy on you, you're mistaken ototo." I said, taking stance. He smiled and said, "I don't want you to, and who says I'll go easy on you Nii-san."
Sasuke attacked first, throwing a giant shurikan. I ducked, smiling as I saw a second one under it. I spread chakra through the air, hovering and sliding my body between the spinning blades.
"The Shurikan Shadow Jutsu. I'm impressed." Madara commented. I smiled and did the signs for a fire style jutsu. I blasted Sasuke with the flames and quickly blocked an attack from him from behind. I felt my lungs start to burn and swore under my breath. (I have a medical condition where my lungs fill with blood. It's extremely painful and I'm going to eventually die from it. Sad, but true.)
I knew I had to end it quickly, so I tapped Sasuke on the arm, forcing him to turn around. I put him under a genjutsu and when he was out, I fell to my knees, hacking out blood. Madara came over to me and rubbed my back. There was nothing that he or anyone could do for me, but I could never let Sasuke know.
"You really have to get Sasori to give you a physical of that. He can tell you when these things will happen." He said and I wiped blood off of my mouth, glaring at him.
"No one but you can know about it, I though we already discussed this before." I said, looking at him. He sighed.
"Alright, well, you can let your brother out of the genjutsu now." He said and I smiled, letting him go. He woke up and I grinned.
"It's about time you woke up."
"Can I ever beat you?" he asked, getting up.
"No. I have to say though, I never expected you to master the Shurikan Shadow and the Repossession jutsu so quickly." I admitted. He smiled and we walked inside.
"Itachi, aren't you going to tell him?" Madara asked before we walked inside. I looked at him and sighed.
"Do I have to?" I asked, looking at Sasuke, who was now totally interested.
"Tell me what Nii-san! Tell me!" he said and I smiled.
"Alright, well, don't freak out, alright. First off, I'm gay. Second, Madara and I are boyfriends."
A few seconds of stunned silence, then a smile crossed his face. "I knew it!"
"Huh?"
"Ever since we were little, I knew it! I always saw you looking at Shisui like that. I personally think that's great. Now, we're both gay!"
That little bit of information almost sent me to the floor. "Your kidding?"
"Nope. I have a boyfriend too."
"Who?"
"Naruto…" he said, but Madara and I looked at each other and passed a WTF look. This just got 10X more weird. I just smiled and told him that it was great and that I'm glad that he's made up his mind. WE walked inside and I said, "Sasuke, I think you need to go back."
"HUH!? No freakin way am I going back!"
"Sasuke, listen to me. Leaf Village Ninja, including your boyfriend, are looking for you. If they find this place, we're all going to either get hurt or die. Do you want to be the reason for that?"
"Nice one, pulling out the guilt card. If I leave, I might not see you again."
"Yes you will. How about we meet every Saturday at the old UchihaMansion."
"Sounds good." Sasuke said, hugging me. He said bye to everyone and whispered something to Madara. He laughed and Sasuke grinned. We walked away from the house and I asked, "What did you tell him?"
"I told him that if he didn't take good care of you, I'd come back and kill him." He said and I patted his shoulder, shaking my head.
"I wish I could say that to Naruto right now." I said and stopped at a little opening in the woods. "Now, I'm going to have to stick you in a non-harmful genjutsu. How well can you handle pain?"
"Very."
"I mean physical. I need to take your chakra."
"Go ahead." He said and I did. He was grimacing, but didn't do much else. I stuck him in the gen-jutsu and left him, kissing his forehead before I left.
"I'll see you soon little brother."
