Natsume Not So Hyuuga
Wherein Mikoto gives birth to twins and Itachi is delightfully pleased to have two younger brothers; Fugaku is not amused.
THREE
Twins.
He was going to have twins.
Well, not really him per se, rather his mother and father were having twins (though secretly Itachi thought it was mother putting in all the work, the twins were in her stomach afterall). Soon there will be two more little Uchiha's running around the clan compound and they're going to be his. Itachi never had a little brother, but sometimes Shisui liked to pretend Itachi was his little brother, so he had an inkling of how to be a big brother.
And he was going to be the best big brother ever.
The Clan Head family were surprised to be bringing an extra life into the world, but Itachi decided then and there at the roundness of his mother's stomach that he would love both babes with every inch of his body.
And when the twins came squealing out of his mother looking like little raisins, he would still love them very much.
"Welcome home, Sasuke and Natsume, there are a lot of people excited to meet you," he whispered into the dark tufts of Natsume's hair. Curious, inky eyes were the only response he got from Natsume (he figured his silence was a sign of his Uchiha blood) and a shrieking laughter from Sasuke.
While a second lease on life was by far extremely awesome, it was terribly boring when you were barely two years old and had a slight speech impediment. It was embarrassing—Natsume was the smartest person he ever knew (not to toot his own horn, but he was tooting his own horn) and while he was raised with a more modern dialect of Japanese, he didn't suddenly forget everything he'd ever learned.
He knew the words to say, he just didn't quite have full control over his body to communicate so.
"Natsu!" And there was his little brother who could speak even less than Natsume himself!
Closing his picture book to put away (it was for research on the language, truly! It's not like he thought the ninja artwork was cool or anything…), Natsume tilted his head at his younger twin. "Yes, Sasu?"
"'Tachi-Aniki is back, let's go play with him!" Translation: let's go bother him.
Why yes, Sasuke dearest, Natsume smiled to himself, that sounded like a grand plan. Having an older brother that was actually younger than him was odd, but Itachi was doting and patient. He allowed the twins to wreak havoc and excused it to their father as subtle training for the future.
(Natsume loved him very much.)
Sasuke was Not Happy whatsoever.
He already had to share Itachi with Shisui-baka (he didn't mind sharing with Natsume, twins are supposed to share everything), and now he was sharing Natsume with the late kid? Not only was it improper of her for showing up late to the first day of Ninja Academy and causing a ruckus, she was a girl. A girl! If there was one thing Shisui-baka was right about, it was that girls were awful, (that Yamanaka kept eyeing him like he was meat!). Then Iruka-Sensei had to go and tell the stupid girl to sit in the empty seat on the other side of Natsume. He didn't even remember that seat being empty in the first place!
He especially didn't like her because she made Natsume cry, and Natsume never, ever cried.
Though Natsume had wiped away all evidence of his tears by the time she sat next to him, the girl had been sending him odd glances all afternoon. While Natsume looked straight ahead and paid attention to Iruka-Sensei, but Sasuke couldn't keep his eyes off the girl. She needed to keep her grubby hands to herself and off his Natsume.
As lunch rolled around, Natsume immediately left the room, leaving an empty space between Sasuke and Naruto. Natsume never left Sasuke behind!
She whistled happily, as if she had nothing to do with Natsume fleeing (he was absolutely positive she had everything to do with him leaving!). She too stood and prepared to grab her lunch.
Sasuke stood abruptly, causing their connected desk to push forward noisily. Her pigtails nearly whipped his face as she turned towards his commotion.
"Are you alright?"
He hated her even more because she just had to be so pretty close up didn't she.
Sasuke pushed himself into her personal space and made sure his eyes looked menacing. "You keep away from my brother, you hear me? Natsume doesn't like girls with ugly pigtailed hair!" Well truth to be told, he didn't know that, but she didn't need to know!
She began to resort but seemed to pause as her baby blue eyes glazed over. Slowly, she asked, "Na-Natsume? Did you say his name was Natsume?"
Snootily, Sasuke raised his nose into the air and pointed his chin out. "Uchiha Sasuke and Natsume, sons of the Clan Head. I know everyone in the police force so I will find out if you're bothering my brother."
Naruto looked out the window and smiled softly, "He looks a lot like someone I once knew…" Her voice trailed off as she giggled to herself. Sasuke barely caught the last of her words; "…he probably would look just like that at six years old…always a heartbreaker."
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her, he could tell immediately she was not going to be staying away from his brother. Thus with all the courage he could muster, he pointed an accusing finger at her, "Uzumaki, mark my words: we are officially rivals from this point on!"
She rolled her eyes and he bristled at the thought of her not taking him seriously. "Rivals for what? If you're talking about being number one ninja, that's non-negotiable—"
"For Natsume's love!" he wanted to stomp his feet at her thoughtlessness (but what did the word non-negotiable even mean?).
Luckily most of their classmates left the room for lunch and recess outdoors, because saying that aloud was far more embarrassing than it sounded in his head. It was even more embarrassing because the doors swung open to reveal Natsume himself.
