I don't Naruto or Naruto Shippuden, Masashi Kishimoto does. But if I did, Sasuke's bitch ass would have never left a gem like Naru-chan, and Danzo would've died the first episode.

Somewhere over the Pacific Ocean
Monday: July 24, 2017 11:56 AM
It was about four o' clock in the morning when the Uchiha's set off for Los Angeles. Mikoto and Itachi could not wait, so they everyone up at the asscrack of dawn. Since they are Uchihas, they took a private jet instead of flying on a commercial plane.
Obito was playing video games on his phone. Mikoto and Fugaku were sleeping on each other . Sasuke was sulking while looking out the plane window. Madara was doing Kami knows what. And Shisui was in the bathroom.
Currently, Itachi was on his laptop. Was he doing work? Reading emails for the company? Hell no. Itachi Uchiha was stalking every single one of his husband, Naruto's, social media accounts. He is on Naruto's Instagram looking at every picture the blond has to offer. The profile seemed to be popular. Most pictures were of Naruto and that man Kakashi making faces at the camera. Some were videos of the blond dancing in the car or dancing while house cleaning. But what made Itachi's eyes narrow was an image of his husband and some redheaded man.
'Who is this man?' Itachi thought as a jealousy started forming in the pit of his stomach.
He looked at the caption of the photo to see: "Me and my best friend Gaara". Slowly, the jealousy started to fade away. He continued to scroll down the account until he heard someone speaking to him.
"Itachi."
Dark eyes looked up to see a curly haired man with dark eyes sitting directly across from him in the airplane seat.
"Yes, Shisui?" He asked in annoyance. He wanted to continue stalking his blond on social media.
Shisui ignore his cousin's irritated tone. "I know you want to see Naruto, and believe me all of us do. But what if he holds negative feelings towards you?" He asked.
"I don't care. I will fight for him to come back to me." Itachi declared with typical Uchiha stubbornness.
Shisui smiled at his cousin's determination.

Los Angeles, California
2:25 PM
A blond was sitting at his mahogany desk doing pile and piles of paperwork. A silver haired man was sitting on the couch reading out of a green book. His workers were in the dorms because it was a rest day. Naruto trained them extra hard after that video came to let them know that just because he was stripper once, doesn't mean he can't beat someone's ass. The reactions were hilarious to the blond. Whenever they trained everyone looked at the beautiful man in lust, but never acted upon it.
The blond signed another gun ownership document form until his phone rang. He looked the caller ID on the screen and squealed. He quickly tapped the green button and put the phone on speaker.
"Obito-nii! How are you?" Naruto greeted excitedly.
Kakashi's head snapped up at the name. 'Obito?'
He heard chuckles from the other end. "Hey Blondie!"
"I haven't heard from you in soooo long!"
"Hmmm. I wonder why?" Obito said sarcastically from the other line.
Naruto instantly felt saddened. This was the same way he felt when he saw his mother-in-law. He felt like he needed to repay them both in some way for his behavior.
"I'm sorry, Obito-nii." The blond apologized sincerely. "Is there any way I can make it up to you?"
"Well, I'm in LA right now." He ignored the blond screeching 'WHAT!' from the other line. "And I need someone to pick us up." Obito said.
"Who is us?" Naruto asked suspiciously.
The blond could hear sighing on the other end. "Mikoto, Fugaku, Sasuke, Madara, Shisui and Itachi." Obito said hesitantly in fear that the blond will decline.
"My jeep can only fit four more people." The blond said calmly.
Obito almost fell of the airport bench. 'How can he just disregard what I just said?!'
"Uh... Blondie, what about Itachi? Don't you have something against him?" The man asked unsure.
Naruto just blinked at Obito's question. "I don't give a shit about Itachi. All I care about is apologizing to Mikoto-kaachan. I'll pick y'all up in like 10 minutes." The blond said before hanging up.
Naruto looked up at his brother. "Kakashi get in your car. We got an old friend to pick up."
~oO0Oo~
LAX, California
2:36 PM
The Uchihas were outside the airport in the pick-up area. They were all holding their suitcases and leaning against the wall waiting in silence.
Itachi sighed in irritation. He was already tired of waiting for this cab. "Obito, did you tell the cab driver the right address?"
"Yup." Obito said. He smirked when he saw a car pulling up. He could just tell who is was by the color of the car.
An orange Jeep Wrangler with flames licking the sides pulled up to the curb. A black Porsche pulled up right behind it. The orange door opened and slammed closed.
Obito started walking towards the Jeep.
Itachi raised an eyebrow at his cousin's strange actions. "Obito, what are you doing?" He asked.
A small body ran from the pavement towards Obito. "OBITO-NIIIIIII!"
Said man just let the body jump on him, sending him crashing to the concrete.
The small body was wearing a black bandana with a red swirl on the front, covering the top of his long blond locks. He wore a tight sweater and matching sweatpants with flames licking the sides. On the back of the shirt, it said Whirlpool Co.
The Uchihas watched the whole scene in confusion and curiosity. Who was this girl jumping on Obito?
Another car door closed, bringing the Uchihas attention to a tall silver haired man wearing a face mask. He was standing sluggishly while looking down at the small body.
Itachi instantly recognized this man as his husband's surrogate brother. But what was he doing here?
Kakashi shook his head at the blond glomping Obito. "Come on, Naru-chan. Let the man breathe." He drawled lazily.
Each and every single Uchiha froze at that nickname. Was Naruto really in front them after all of these years?
Said man looked up at them with beautiful blue eyes as he let go of Obito.
Itachi's breath hitched as he took in his husband's appearance. It felt like he was living in a blond looked even more gorgeous in person. His body was just as curvy as it was on that video. His blond hair was bright as the sun even under that dark bandana. He was just so beautiful and Itachi wanted to hold him close.
Itachi's body moved without him registering it. Muscular arms wrapped around a thin waist as a pale nose buried in a black bandana.
"Uh… Hey there, Itachi. How are you doing?" Naruto said as he patted the man's back awkwardly. 'Why is he hugging me?' He looked over the man's shoulders and saw his mother-in-law staring at him with shocked eyes.
"Mikoto-kaachaan!" He grinned.
The woman snapped out of her trance and ran towards the blond. She shoved Itachi off him and hugged her sunshine.
"Naru-chan!" She exclaimed she embraced the blond. She had to have a hug from the blond because she didn't get one the last time she saw him.
Cerulean eyes looked at her in sorrow. "Mikoto-kaachan. I'm sorry that I didn't-"
"It's okay, Naru-chan. I understand why you left. I apologize for getting so angry at you. I didn't know anything about your situation."
"It's okay, kaa-chan!" He beamed as he kissed her pale cheek. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a curly haired man.
"SHISUI-KUN!"
Shisui looked down at the cute blond fondly. "Hello, Naru-chan." He said gently.
"Hn. Dobe."
Naruto looked over to see Sasuke glancing at him. He had an arrogant smirk on his face.
"Hm. It seems that you're still an emotionally constipated bastard who likes poles up his ass. I wonder if it's a fetish?" He insulted while smiling sweetly.
Sasuke scowled.
Loud, deep laughter echoed from the other side of the pickup area. Blue eyes scanned the area and landed on a tall man with waist length black hair covering the right side of his face. "Already riling in-laws up. You're something else, boy."
"Madara-ojiji!" Naruto shouted as he ran up to him and ran his hands through his long hair.
"Didn't I tell you to not call me that. I'm not that old."
Naruto ignored him as he continued to play with Madara's inky black strands.
"As much I'd love to catch up, we need to get a cab." Fugaku said monotonously.
Naruto raised an eyebrow as let go of the black strands. "Eh? Obito called me to pick to y'all up. So LEGGO!" He yelled as he went back to the Jeep to start it back up.
Everyone just stood there in confusion of what just happened.
"Obito, what are you trying to do?" Itachi asked irritated. He didn't know why his cousin deliberately called his long lost husband.
"Trying to speed things up." He replied cryptically as he put his bags in the trunk and climbed in the front seat.
~oO0Oo~
2:42 PM
Naruto put his aviator sunglasses on as he waited for everyone to get in the car. He looked in the rearview mirror and saw Shisui, Madara and Itachi.
He put the car in drive and pulled out of the airport entrance and onto the highway with Kakashi following him.
Itachi was watching the blond's every move closely. He didn't understand why the blond even came. It just didn't make any sense.
The whole car ride, Madara was informing Naruto on what hair products he uses since the blond wouldn't stop asking. He always thought his Madara's hair was wild and pretty.
"I'm hungry as fuck so Imma get some food." Naruto said as he rubbed his growling stomach.
"Good. I heard there was a well known Italian restaurant around."
"Cool."he replied as he watched the road.
Obito decided to make some small talk to get rid of some of the heavy silence in the car. "So Blondie. Why did you get such a manly car?" Obito asked.
"Cuz I like bigass cars. And it's funny to see people's reactions when my little ass jumps out of it." He deadpanned.
Obito laughed as Naruto hooked up the AUX.
Extremely profane music filled the car loudly. The blond started rapping the lyrics as he drove through the highway exit.
"You really do like rap don't you!" Obito said through chuckles.
Naruto looked at him through his reflective sunglasses and grinned brightly. "It's cuz I can relate to it most of the lyrics. Most of the songs are about coming up and that's basically my life story." He stated as he pulled up to the restaurant.
Before he could even push the car door open it was already opened for him. He saw Itachi standing there with his hand held out. Blue eyes stared blankly at the appendage. Naruto finally came to the conclusion that he was trying to help him out of the car.
He grabbed Itachi's pale hand and jumped out of the Jeep.
Itachi's breath hitched when he saw those beautiful cerulean eyes through the sunglasses looking up at him. But he could've died when he saw pink plump lips pulled up in a small smile, just for him.
"Thank you Itachi." Naruto said sweetly.
Naruto walked away from him to find his brother. When he finally spotted him in the parking lot, he laughed. The man looked so miserable.
"What's wrong Kaka-chan?"
Kakashi slumped over Naruto's shoulder. "It's like they suck the fun right of you." He said referring to Sasuke and Fugaku.
"It couldn't have been that bad. Mikoto-kaachan is talkative."
"It's hard to talk to wives when their husbands are sending you death glares."
The blond giggled at Kakashi's misfortune as he went inside of the restaurant.
When he walked in he was greeted by a receptionist. "Hello! How can I help you?" The woman greeted.
The blond walked over to the desk as he took his sunglasses off. "Do you have a booth for nine?"
The woman nodded as she led the large group through the restaurant. Eyes all around the building were watching the blond the whole journey. When they made it to the booth, Itachi somehow squeezed himself between Naruto and Obito.
While they waited for the waiter, Naruto talked animatedly to Obito and Shisui, sometimes insulting his brother playfully. Itachi loved watching blond flip through different expressions as he spoke. He noticed that his cerulean eyes lighten and darken with each emotion he had. Sort of like a mood ring. He wished he could have saw this side of him when they were in Tokyo.
"Do they have ramen?" Naruto asked as he flipped the page of the menu.
"No, Naruto. This is an Italian restaurant." Kakashi said shaking his head at the blond's craving.
The blond scowled. "I don't care I will get my ramen." He declared as he threw his menu somewhere.
A waitress with unevenly layered red hair walked up to take their order. Her skirt was too short and her shirt was showing off cleavage that didn't even exist. Her name plate said 'Karin'. Red eyes looked over the Uchihas and instantly recognized them. She took everyone's order happily (and of course flirted with the single men), but ignored Naruto's presence.
As she began to walk away, the blond called her. "M'am you forgot my order!" He said waving his tan hands at her.
She rolled her red eyes behind her glasses and turned back to the blond and looked down at him in disgust.
"I only take orders for people who respect themselves and have real jobs." She spat as she flipped her hair.
Naruto looked around the table and then looked back at her. "Who are you talking to? Cuz I know it ain't me." He said with an attitude.
Everyone at the table stopped their conversations when heard that tone in Naruto's voice. They knew that something was going to go down.
"Who else would I be talking to? You're that...that whore!" Karin shouted in anger.
Itachi was about to intervene until he saw his husband shaking. He lifted a hand to put on his shoulder until-
Naruto started cackling maniacally. Kakashi pinched his nose as if he was stressed. "Oh Kami. Not now."
Everyone at the table looked at the man weird. What the hell is he talking about?
"I wasn't a prostitute, I was a stripper. Don't get it twisted, bitch." He said still cackling.
The Uchihas were surprised at how fast the blond could switch up his emotions. This was the exact same way he spoke when he yelled at Itachi that day. One minute he's an angel, the next minute he's a delinquent.
Karin was stunned. She didn't expect the blond the talk back to her so quickly. He seemed to nice too do that.
The waitress got over her surprise quickly to resume her point. "Everyone has seen your disgusting video. The way you were shaking your ass was revolting. It proves that you are a slut."
"What are ya talkin' about? Last time I checked, ya didn't know shit about my sex life. So please explain to me how I'm a whore." Naruto ordered while intertwining tan fingers and resting his chin on them.
Karin adjusted her glasses. "You're a stripper!"
" I was a stripper. But I don't dance now, I make money move. And what do you do?" The blond laughed mockingly. "Work at a restaurant!"
Everyone in the restaurant started laughing at the woman. She grit her teeth in anger. She will not being embarrassed by this… this whore!
"Ya know, I think I'm sensin' jealousy." He tapped his chin. "Is it because I can fit in your clothes better than you and I'm a man?" Naruto plump, pink lips were pulled into a devious smirk.
Everyone at the table stifled a laugh.
"How dare yo-"
"Shut the fuck up and make me my ramen." Naruto interrupted while looking at his nails.
"Are you dumb? We don't even sell ramen here. It's an Italian res-"
"I'm not playin' these games with you right now." He adjusted his black bandana as his blue eyes looked her pointedly. "Make. Me. My. Ramen. Bitch." The blond clapped on every syllable of each word.
Obito and Shisui started dying on the table laughing.
Karin looked ready to retort until she saw the blond's eyes. They flashed red for a split second. She ran into the kitchen to tell the chef to make the blond's order.
Naruto watched the woman run to the kitchen in fear. 'HA! The eyes always get them!' he thought mischievously
Kakashi sighed heavily at his brother's behavior. "You are just like your mother. Crazy as hell and acts as if she doesn't have any home training."
The blond cackled again. "Damn straight. I'm loco. I love wreaking havoc." He deadpanned as he lifted his legs onto the table.
'He is a living oxymoron..' Itachi thought.
~oO0Oo~
3:38 PM
Laughter could be heard through the parking lot as large group exited the restaurant.
"Naruto, I'm still surprised that you got ramen out of the chef!" Shisui said in between chuckles.
The blond flipped his hair. "What can I say? I'm very persuasive."
"More like threatening and evil." Kakashi muttered as he walked up to his car.
"What was that?" The sickening sweet voice of Naruto sent shivers down Kakashi's spine.
"N-nothing, Naru-chan!" The silver haired man lied nervously.
Naruto ignored his irritating brother and looked for his mother-in-law so he could gossip. But he could find her anywhere. He turned to Fugaku. "Where's Mikoto-kaachan?"
"She's-" The man started only to be cut off by a loud scream.
Naruto ran towards the noise until he found himself behind the restaurant. He saw Mikoto being dragged by her purse by some man in a ski mask. The man looked up at him and still continued to try and rob the woman. Naruto prepared himself to fight, ignoring the loud footsteps behind him.
The blond appeared out of nowhere in front of the man sent a jarring axe kick the man's covered chin, forcing the man to let go of the purse. The thief was stunned by the kick but snapped out of it and sprint towards the blond to punch in him in the face. Naruto dodged by bending backwards and got some distance away from the man's oncoming assault by gracefully backflipping away. Once he was on his feet again, he appeared in a flash in front of the man again. He spun on his foot like an axis and hit the thief's face in a brutal roundhouse kick. The masked man wobbled slightly and fell to the ground unconscious. Blue eyes watched the body carefully until they deemed it was safe.
Naruto turned around to see his in-laws staring at him in utter shock. He ignored him to tend to Mikoto who was still on the ground.
Itachi, who was watching the whole scene, felt his jaw drop. "Naruto…"
"Are you okay?" He asked the woman.
She was still looking at him with wide dark eyes. "H-how did you learn to fight like that?" She asked the question everyone was thinking.
He looked down at her with big, blue saddened eyes. "You learn a lot when you're left out to die." He stated wisely as he held out a hand for her.
She put her frail hand in his and felt herself lift to her feet.
"Y'all are staying with me. I don't trust you to be by yourself." The blond declared before walking back to his Jeep.
'Otouto was incorrect after all. He really did welcome us with open arms.'
~oO0Oo~
4:23 PM
Through the whole ride, Shisui, Obito and Naruto were cracking jokes about each other.
They were driving through the heart of LA. The huge skyscrapers were impressive, but had nothing on Tokyo. The blond behind the wheel pulled into the apartment garage.
Tan hands took the keys out of the ignition and went to open the door only to find it opened for him again. He took Itachi's hand and let himself be guided out of the car. He looked at his husband with big blue eyes.
"Aren't you just the little gentleman?" The blond said cutely as his flicked Itachi's pale nose.
Itachi watched Naruto walk away to Kakashi. He stared at the way the blond's hips sway as he moved.
'I really need to step up my game up if I gonna claim him.'
They walked through the huge lobby, while Mikoto was telling Naruto to not worry about them and that they will be fine on their own.
Naruto just ignored her and went into the large glass elevator. Everyone piled in and waited for at least a minute because Naruto's apartment was on the top floor.
"Dobe. Do you even have enough rooms for us? I don't want to be cramped." Sasuke asked skeptically.
The blond stared at him with blank eyes. "My apartment is a penthouse. It is the whole top floor. It has 8 bedrooms."
The elevator doors opened and the blonde led them to the only door in on the room. He took out his keys and unlocked the door. The Uchiha's eyes were instantly blinded by all of the natural light from the huge windows. It didn't help that everything a shade of white or burnt orange.
Don't misunderstand me. The apartment was beautiful and impressively decorated. The blond led them through the house.
He showed them the outside pool on the balcony, the huge kitchen with white marble countertops, the glass themed bathrooms, the spacious living room and each guest bedroom.
He didn't bother to show them Kakashi's room because they didn't need to see any of that...At all.
Everyone went back to the large living room and sat down on burnt orange couches.
"How much is your rent? This place is kinda expensive looking." Obito asked while looking around.
Naruto crossed his legs and tightened his bandana. "Being one of the most famous strippers pays a lot. And I did side jobs when I came to America." He explained.
Itachi raised an eyebrow curiously. "What do you mean famous stripper?"
Naruto sighed. "When I worked at The Sound or Oto I was really well known. Probably because of how I was an 'uke stripper' or had a strange stage name."
Itachi was even more intrigued. "What was your stage name?" Itachi never knew his stage name or seen him dance until that video came out. He just knew that he worked at the strip club.
"My name was Sunshine or Nikkō."
Jaws dropped and eyes widened.
"You were that stripper, dobe?! Whenever my workers from our company got off work they always bragged about going to the club seeing this stripper Nikkō. I didn't know you were that famous. How come I never saw any pictures of you?" Sasuke asked in disbelief.
"Wow teme. Are you that horny to see your brother's spouse as a stripper?" Naruto smirked deviously at his brother-in-law.
Itachi had a slight smile when Naruto admitted that he was his husband.
"Usuratonkachi!"
The blond tapped his chin in fake thought. "Hmmm. I bet you watched that video numerous times, Sa-su-teme." He dragged out the syllables of his name provocatively.
"No dobe." He lied. "That was Itachi. He loved that video." Sasuke opted for throwing his brother under the bus.
Itachi's smile disintegrated. He glared at his brother wishing he would spontaneously combust. Why would he say that out loud?!
Naruto laughed beautifully. He was unbothered by the fact that Itachi watched him dance. "How cute. Uchiha boys are such shy sexual freaks." He laughed even more.
"Indeed." Mikoto said (ew). "How did you get your stage name? It fits you very well." She asked.
"My hair and my skin tone. And I guess my personality. I always wore gold and yellow." Naruto said as he leaned on a white pillow.
"Did you ever get any bad pickup lines?" Shisui asked goofily.
The blond groaned. "Yes! This one dude said: 'You look like a trophy I wanna win.' It was so painful to hear him say that to me! I wanted to die!" Naruto hid his face in hands.
Everyone chuckled at the blond's embarrassment.
Itachi decided to interrogate his husband some more when he got over his hidden humiliation. "What were your side jobs."
"I worked in the FBI with Kakashi. I was a substitute for the injured officers."
"I would have completely doubted you just now, but after I saw what you did to that robber it's completely plausible." Shisui admitted.
Fugaku's eyes lit up as if remembering something important. "I apologize for not thanking you earlier for protecting my wife. I appreciate what you did." He said in a slightly thankful tone.
Naruto was surprised at Fugaku's emotion slipping out. He snapped out of it and smiled warmly at his father-in-law. "Don't worry about it because it was my pleasure." He reassured. Then his voice went ominously deep. " Cuz if that scum had injured her, then he wouldn't have been able to wake up." His blue eyes started turning into an indigo-purplish color.
Shivers went down everyone's spine while Mikoto smiled and Kakashi just shook his head for the billionth time. 'Why is he so damn scary?!'
The blond stopped emitting his dark aura. "Anyways, who wants dinner?" He smiled as he clapped his hands together.
~oO0Oo~
10:44 PM
A shirtless raven was laying on the queen sized bed sprawled out. He was going over all of the events that happened today. His brain still could grasp that he met his husband. That his husband picked him up from the airport. That he took them out to eat. That he fought robber for them. That he let them in his house. Hell, that he even let them near him!
Itachi groaned lowly as he ran a hand through his loose inky locks.
Why didn't Naruto hold a grudge against him? Why did he show him kindness? Why did he even let him touch his hand? Why didn't he slap it away?
Itachi hates when he can't understand something. He's a genius for Kami's sake! How come one unpredictable blond changes that?
The man got tired of thinking when it showed that it would get him nowhere. He needed answers.
Itachi exited the guest bedroom and went down the hall to Naruto's room. He stood at the door and knocked on the white wood. He heard a rustle of sheets and a muffled 'come in'.
He opened the door and took in the light blue walls. The room was very spacious and had few decorations. It seemed to portray a minimal look. He looked over at the blond who was sitting in the middle of the bed holding his phone in his tan hands.
Itachi ran his eyes over his husbands form. His golden hair was free of the bandana and he was wearing an oversized orange sweatshirt that ended at the middle if his tan thighs. He wanted nothing more than to run his hands up and down those golden, supple legs.
He decided to stop undressing the blond with his eyes to ask his dying question. "Why?"
Blond eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Naruto waved at Itachi in a 'come hither' motion. The raven closed the door softly and glided regally towards the blond. He sat on the soft cushioning and faced the beautiful man.
Naruto lifted a knee up and rested his whiskered cheek on it. "Why what?" He asked with half-lidded eyes.
It took all of Itachi's strength to avoid looking in between Naruto's now exposed inner thighs. "Why are you not holding a grudge over me? Especially after what I did to you that day." He asked in slightly desperate tone.
Memories started flooding the blond's mind of the day he left.
Flashback:
Naruto was walking towards his husband's and his shared bedroom. He finally gathered the courage to talk about the files he saw about three months ago. The only person he could think to consult about it was Itachi. He used to admire Itachi's mature, wise behavior but over time the man had changed. Even though he doesn't really want to associate with Itachi at this point, he needed to talk to him about the reason behind their arranged marriage. Normally, he wouldn't talk to any Uchiha beside Tajima or Mikoto, and just follow orders and do his chores, but this matter was too important to ignore. But he had a nagging feeling that the discussion would go horribly wrong so he packed his bags and called someone just in case.
He finally reached the end of his journey down the long corridor and found himself in front of his bedroom. The blond heard a strange noise that sounded suspiciously like a female moan, but he decided to pay no mind to it and opened the door anyway.
"Itachi-san, I nee-"
"AAH~! ITACHI-SAMA!"
Naruto's eyes widened when he saw Itachi thrusting in and out of a pink haired woman roughly. Itachi was too into it to notice the blond's appearance, but the same can't be said about the woman. She screeched and tried to cover herself with the sheets. Itachi was perplexed of why the woman stopped. He followed her gaze to the the doorway to see his husband standing there with a shocked face. He quickly covered covered himself.
'Do not feel guilty. You have to rid yourself of emotions, even love.' Itachi repeated to himself like a mantra.
"Naruto. Could you not wait?" Itachi said coldly even though he was cringing at his own words.
The 19 year old boy snapped out of his daze and addressed Itachi. "Itachi-san, I need to talk to you about what I found in the-"
"Naruto. Shut up. I don't care." He spat. The raven was frustrated that he didn't get his release.
The blond's eyes widened and his jaw dropped.
"Are you just going to stand there? You could at least dust the shelves." The raven suggested icily.
Naruto felt something inside of him snap. He looked down at the ground as he shook slightly. A dark aura started to fill the room. The two years of Uchiha conditioning had finally become undone.
The pink haired woman sensed the bad vibes and quickly grabbed her clothes scattered on the carpet to hightail it out of there.
Itachi stared down at the shaking blond's bowed head in worry. Did he go too far?
Naruto has been standing in that same spot for at least five minutes.
Itachi started to walk towards the blond slowly until his head snapped up. The raven felt like the wind was knocked out of him when he saw those fiery blue eyes looking up at him.
"So why did I see you fuckin' some random bitch on my bed just five minutes ago, Uchiha!" A raspy, yet velvety voice echoed throughout the mansion… and probably the whole country. His old way of speaking came back in a heartbeat.
Black, red-tinted eyes widened a fraction before narrowing. What was with this new behavior? "It is none of your concern of what I do in this room, Uzumaki." A cool, impassive tone that could cut through the air like a knife in butter, passed throughout the room.
"It is when you're doin' it my bed! Ya know, like the bed I put my clean body into?! And you're contaminatin' it with your dick juices and liquid babies!"
A dark, perfectly arched eyebrow raised. "Liquid babies?"
Cerulean eyes rolled as a sigh escaped. "Figure it out Uchiha-bastard, use that brain you're always praised for."
Dark eyes blinked disbelievingly.
"Nah Itachi, ya see, this is what we're not gonna do-" The blond was about to start clapping his hands.
"Naruto, since when did you learn to speak like this?"
"Nunya damn business! So let's get back at the topic at hand." Naruto inhaled deeply before saying, "Which is you fuckin' a random bitch on my innocent bed that has done nothing to deserve this mistreatment-"
"Naruto, what happened to the ditzy, obedient little blonde that came at my beck and call?" He said arrogantly.
Naruto's eyes flashed a crimson red in anger at the raven's arrogant tone. But then plump lips smirked before saying, " What happened to the humble man that didn't let fame get to his head? Ya know, you used to be so wise back then, I think I could've even fell in love with you. But nooooo, you let your family dictate who you were as a person, and now you've changed. Hell, I even find it hilarious when you call the teme 'foolish otouto' because the real fool here is you. Simply tragic." The blond sighed in fake sadness. "So, have fantastic life, and good day, sir!" The sunshine-blond stood up on his shapely legs and went to leave the room before being rudely interrupted.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Daaaaang pretty boy, are you having an off day or what? Are your brain cells drinkin' bleach from having to live in such a bastardy brain?" Plump, pink lips smirked mischievously.
Itachi's eye twitched.
"Oooook, I'll even spell it out for you since your comprehensive skills are lacking today." Naruto said mockingly. "I'm leaving the mansion and never coming back. I'm sick of having to live with stoic bastards that act like they have a ten foot pole stuck up their ass! I'm sick of having to take lessons on how to be the "appropriate wife" and how to present myself to this world! So fuck your standards and this godforsaken marriage!"
While listening to this, Itachi's schooled, unemotional visage broke into utter surprise. The raven immediately jumped up and said, "You are not going anywhere! You are mine, meaning that you cannot leave." 'Please don't leave me.'
"Oooh get real honey, yes the fuck I am - Oh! And by the way, here's your ring back!" Naruto threw a ring with rubies and the Uchiha emblem surrounding the metal band at Itachi's forehead, then swiftly turned and walked out the door, closing it with a wall shuttering slam.
The raven stood in the middle of the room in shock. He had a small red spot forming in the middle of his forehead. 'How dare he?! I thought I would leave Naruto before he left me (even though I don't want to). He used to be so quiet and sweet, so who is this...this delinquent that just insulted me? I need answers.'
Itachi ripped the door open and ran down the corridor, his low ponytail flying up as he passed doors rapidly.
He finally made it to the front door to hear Naruto getting in a taxi cab with all of his bags. 'So this was planned from the very beginning?' Itachi pondered with controlled, but increasing rage. 'You planned on leaving me from the beginning?'
The raven ran up to the car door just as the car was getting ready to pull out of the cobblestone driveway. Naruto surprisingly rolled down the car window and looked up with big blue eyes expectedly.
"So after we pulled you out of the strip club and let you in our house with kindness when you basically had no home, you're just going to up and leave like that?" Itachi asked with contained fury.
Cerulean eyes blinked slowly about three times before Naruto finally answered. "Yup." One slim, tan finger pushed on a button, and the tinted car window ascended back at the top. Naruto turned his head to the supposed cab driver. "Come on Kaka-chan, I wanna get to the airport sometime this year." He whined cutely.
The silver headed man smiled from under his black mask, and said, "Okay Naruto-chan, anything for you." Kakashi placed his foot on the gas pedal and pulled out of the driveway and exited through golden gates with the Uchiha fan on it. The obnoxiously colored car flew down the road at high speeds towards Tokyo Narita Airport as a raven stared at the road in disbelief.
Flashback End
Cerulean eyes looked away towards the blue wall. He remembered that angry speech a clear as day. Looking back on it now, he thought his younger self was hypocritical. He said that Itachi was dictated by his own family, when Naruto was dictated by them as well. Well, at least two people. One has changed and he's not even sure if the other one is alive anymore. It was only when he snapped out of that obedient mentality that he remembered his true purpose.
Blue eyes looked back at Itachi. "I don't hold a grudge because it's been three years and I don't care anymore. If I can't hold grudges against everyone who mistreated me, then what makes you think I'm gonna hold one against you? There is only one person that I hate. Sure you did really piss me off that day, but it's thanks to you that I remembered what I'm trying to accomplish." Naruto explained tiredly.
Itachi was happy that his blond wasn't angry with him anymore, but what is this accomplishment? "What are you trying to accomplish?"
"Something." He said vaguely as he yawned. "Now get out pretty boy. I need my beauty sleep."
The raven nodded hesitantly. "Hn." He stood up on long legs and walked out of the bedroom. Even though all he wanted to do was kiss the sunshine blond goodnight.

a/n: I sorta modeled Naruto's personality after a rapper. Can you guess who?
