Chapter 7 – Bad Company

.

.

.

He had spent the last thirty minutes of his life riding around the town without a destination in mind. All he knew is that he did NOT want to go back home. He sighed turning off the radio and cruising around until two teenagers ran out into the middle of the street.

The guy grabbed the girl's arm and she tried yanking away. She yelled something and he slapped her. Normally, Sasuke would mind his own business but he didn't condone a man laying his hands on a female. He quickly parked. "Hey man!" He yelled.

He deserved a prize after this.

The guy turned to him. "What the fuck you do want?"

The girl's back stiffened. Sasuke shoved his hands in his pockets. "Weren't you taught not to hit girls?"

"She's a bitch, nothing more."

Sasuke rolled his eyes and pulled out his phone. "Dude, get out of here before I call the cops."

The iced blue eyed boy scoffed and glared at the girl. "You have three days, hime!" He stomped away. Sasuke touched her shoulder.

"Are you-"

She turned around and Sasuke's heart stop beating then a frown, that mocked the man that stormed away, was planted on his features. He pulled his hands away like she was a snake…

She was a snake.

"Orohime?"

"Sasuke…" She smiled. "I haven't se-" Before she could finish he was walking back to the car. "Wait, Sasuke!" He sped up. There was no way. He was seeing things. He had to be seeing things because she wasn't back. She wasn't supposed to be…

He shook his head before a hand grasped his. "Sasuke!" She yelled.

He turned to her. "What do you want? Why are you here?"

She smiled. "I'm back… aren't you…"

"Happy?" He finished. She smiled. "Fuck no," He snatched away. "Get away from me."

She stepped in front of him. "Sasuke… I came back for you."

He gave a dry laugh. "Well, go away."

She put her hands to his chest. "Sasuke, it's been three years."

He pushed her out the way. "Orohime, get the fuck away from me."

She shook her head. "Sasuke, I'm sorry."

He paused. "You're sorry? You are sorry! Do you know what you have done to me?" He muttered. "I'm not allowed to be around you."

She hugged him. "Tell me you don't love me!"

"I fucking hate you." He pushed her into the door of his car. "I should have let that guy beat your teeth out."

She ran a hand through her pitch black hair. "Sasuke, don't say that…" She smiled. "I know you still love me… and now we can be together… I've changed."

"I don't want you." He closed his eyes. "Get out of my way."

She looked down. "I have nowhere to go…"

He put a hand on her shoulder. She looked up into his hard onyx eyes. "Go to Hell, there's enough room." He pushed her out the way and opened the door. "Don't think for a moment that I will ever let you into my life again."

"S-Sasuke…" Her eyes watered. "P-please… I love you."

"You almost ruined my life." He spat. "I won't let you finish the job."

"Can we at least have a civilized talk? I swear… I'm not doing any of that! I'm not! I'm clean… and I've…" She sighed. "Sasuke, I've missed you more than you know…"

He stared at her. Her golden eyes were flooded with sadness and her lips were poked out. She got what she wanted with that look. He was stronger than that… He had grown and couldn't be tricked by those full red lips. "Okay…"

Shit.

She smiled. "Thank you… when are you free?"

"Now."

She circled the car and opened the door. She got in filling the normally lavender and cream scented car with something stronger. Sasuke sighed stealing glances at her as they went down the street. "Who was that guy?"

She looked over. "My now ex-boyfriend…" She absently touched her cheek.

"Is that the first time he's hit you?"

She looked down. "N-No… it's not."

"Why haven't you left him before then?"

She looked over at him. "I couldn't… I needed to get back to Konoha and he found out why…" She sighed in defeat. "It doesn't matter… I'm here now…"

Sasuke gripped the steering wheel. What demon possessed him to let her inside of his car? She brought nothing but bad company. He looked over at her. She had on sandals, ripped skinny jeans and sweater. Her long ebony hair flowed down her back and golden eyes seemed to shine brighter than before.

He pulled up to the diner.

.

"This is Daisuke?!" She smiled looking at the photos in his phone. "He is adorable, looks just like his daddy!" She giggled. He nodded sipping his coffee. "I didn't think you would have gone through with it."

He raised an eyebrow. "What?"

She put the phone down. "Well, I thought you would have gotten rid of it…him."

He closed his eyes. "That never crossed my mind."

She laughed. "I doubt that. You never talked about kids with me!"

"Yeah, well I was fifteen and you were seventeen… I was still a kid myself."

She nodded. "Well look at you now, eighteen and you seem like a great papa." She touched his hand. He glanced now at the offending limb.

He snatched away. "I could have been eighteen and in prison because of you if it wasn't for Hinata and him."

She frowned. "Sasuke, I can't apologize enough, can I?"

He rubbed his temples. "I don't think you understand that happened that night? You could never apologize enough. When I think about it I honestly want to kill you."

She looked down. "You wouldn't…"

"I would and don't test me."

She closed her eyes. "I loved you so much, Sasuke…" She rubbed her arm. "But I couldn't go to prison! I was a senior and… I needed-"

He slammed his phone down. "You fucking bitch," He gritted out causing her to flinch. "I was a freshman, I already had a kid on the way and you're talking about futures?" He stood. "You still think about yourself."

She grabbed his wrist. "I still think about you." She stood up slowly. "I know you still think about me… I know you do…"

He put down some money and walked out. She trailed behind him. "Sasuke! Sasuke please… just tell me the truth!" He lend against the door with his arms crossed.

"You want to know the truth?" He growled.

"Yes!" She stomped in front of him. Even though she was twenty-one he was still way taller than her. She poked his chest. "I want to know the whole truth!"

He grabbed her shoulders. "The truth is-" She crashed her lips on his. He froze while she moved her soft full, red stained lips across his. She wrapped her arms around him, gently biting his bottom lip. "Get…" He muttered weakly. "Off of me…" He finished against her lips.

She pulled away. "You didn't fight me off…" She whispered.

He frowned. "The truth is… I wish you would fall over the face of the earth."

She smiled. "Tell me some more."

He squared his jaw. "I want you to get hit by a car."

She nodded. "Uh-hun?" She kissed his neck. "What else?" She felt him gulp under her lips. "What else, Sasuke?"

"I hope you die." He pushed her away. She smiled and took his hands placing them on her waist. "What are you doing?"

She sighed. "I miss your hands on me…" She moved his hands up her back and to her stomach. "You remember the love we made?" She smiled. "I remember it."

"I was dumb." She let go and his hands stayed in place, circling her waist. "I was so, so dumb." She pulled him down to where he was hovering over her lips.

"We're young, Sasuke…" She ran her tongue over his bottom lip. "We deserve to be dumb." She smiled that smile that he fell for three years ago. Over his better judgment he let their lips connect.

In Sasuke's opinion and from what he and Orohime used to talk about… Addicts weren't always addicted to the substance; they were addicted to the feeling. He was addicted to the feeling that this woman gave him… he had been clean for so long.

It took her less than an hour to turn him into a hormonal crazed teenager. He pushed her against the car door. She groaned feeling his hand under her shirt and becoming bolder by the second. "S-Sasuke…" She moaned as he bit her neck.

"Mm." He grunted.

"C-Can you take me home…" She shivered as he left her body. "And maybe you can come in?"

He stared at her then at his watch. "I need to go home." Where did the day go?

She licked her lips. "Then you have to come over… tomorrow?" He nodded quickly.

.

.

.

He walked into the house. It was well past twelve. He sighed. How did that happen? One minute he wanted her to jump in front of a speeding train and the next he had to fight himself not to go into her apartment. He touched his chest and went into the kitchen. There was a wrapped up bowl of soup.

He mentally cursed. He told Hinata he wouldn't be gone long…

He sighed and went into the bathroom. Red lips stained his usual pale skin. "Shit…"

"Sasuke?" He looked at the door. Hinata was standing there with a confused look in her… red eyes.

"Have you been crying?"

She blinked. "I… just this movie…" She smiled. "I was…" She trailed off seeing the markings on his neck and the pink tint on his lips.

"Long story…" He muttered.

She nodded. "I understand… I'm gonna go to bed."

He gave a curt nod before examining his neck again. "Okay."

She disappeared. She had this whole speech ready for him when he came into the house but… it all faded when he didn't come home for dinner. She adopted the thought that he was either mad or didn't want her around.

She was going with both.

Then he finally came home with red lip stick all over his face and neck. She settled down in bed and pulled the covers over her head. After another hour passed Sasuke padded into the room and climbed into bed. "Sorry, Hina…"

She sighed. "For what?"

"For being late, I did-"

"You don't have to apologize…" She curled up. He grunted before turning off the lights.

.

.

.

The next few weeks Sasuke had a routine. He came home pass eleven, went straight to sleep, woke up and went to school. Brought Hinata and whoever was coming over that day home, spent an hour or so with Daisuke and was gone. The cycle repeated.

"Alright, I'll be back soon."

Daisuke pouted. "B-but Daddy! You're gonna miss movie night!"

Sasuke ruffled his hair. "I'll be back, okay?"

Onyx eyes clashed together. Daisuke sighed. "O-tay…"

He kissed his forehead. "Later, little man…" Hinata was outside planting some new seeds she recently bought. "I'm gone, Hinata!" He threw over his shoulders as he got into the car. She sighed.

"That's nothing new."

.

.

.

He rang the doorbell. He looked at his watch. "I have five hours…" He started chanting to himself. The door opened revealing Orohime in a towel.

"Sasuke…" She smiled opening the door enough to let him in. She locked the door before walking up to him. "I just got out the shower…" She grinned.

"I see…" He dipped to kiss her lips. She groaned wrapping her arms around him. "Let's go…"

She led him to her bedroom. "How much time do you have?"

He smirked. "I'm not on a time schedule?" But he was going to leave in four hours.

She put a hand on her hip. "Hinata is very nonchalant about this, huh?"

"She doesn't know."

She bit her lip. "And why not?"

He pushed her on the bed. "We aren't together." She giggled as he kissed her neck. "She wouldn't care…"

.

.

Hinata walked into the living room after washing the dirt that littered her body. Daisuke was sitting on the couch alone staring at the blank television. She raised an eyebrow before circling the couch. "Dai-kun, what's going on?"

He looked up at her with wide onyx eyes, clutching Kyuubi. "D-Daddy isn't here…"

She sat on the couch. "Oh, baby… I can watch TV with you."

He sniffled. "B-But mommy, its big boys' night…"

"Don't cry Dai," She put him in her lap. He huffed and started crying in her shirt. "Dai…" She rubbed his back. "Daisuke, I'm sure he is on the way! I'll call him, alright?" He nodded in her chest.

.

.

He looked over at his vibrating phone. "You're not serious right?" She panted on top of him.

"It's Hinata…" He sighed. "Get up."

She shook her head and started moving her hips. "Sasuke… don't kill the mood." He groaned then grabbed her hips.

"It could be important." He moved her off of him. He grabbed his phone and redialed the number. "Hello?" Orohime pouted and rolled over.

"Sasuke!" Her voice came through. "…Did you forget Daisuke?"

He frowned before looking at the phone's clock. He had indeed forgotten about the time. "Shit…" He sat up. "I'm sorr-"

"Sasuke, don't say sorry…" She cut off. "…are you coming home any time soon? I need to tell him something."

He closed his eyes for a moment. "I'll be home in a bit, tell him I'm sor-"

"You tell him," She paused. "Bye."

Orohime pulled on a shirt. "Trouble in paradise?"

He rolled his eyes. "I forgot all about Dai…" He got up. She walked over to him holding a hopeful smile.

"Can I meet him?"

"No." He pulled on his pants.

She blinked. "What? Why?"

He gave a dry laugh. "You and Hinata hate each other."

She shrugged. "As true as that might be, why does that keep him from me?" She pouted.

He found his shoes. "Because nobody meets Daisuke without both of us talking to each other about it," He looked over. "As I said… You aren't exactly on her nice list."

"Are you keeping me a secret?"

He nodded. "Yes."

She stepped back at the bluntness in his tone. "Sasuke…"

"My friends hate you," He sighed. "I don't…"

"You love me." She offered.

"We've been through this…" He grabbed his keys and walked to the door. "What I feel for you… is complicated and until I figure all of that out… you will continue to be a secret."

"We're together…" She crossed her arms.

He chuckled. "Whatever, hime." He kissed her forehead. "I have to get home to my son." He walked out the door. He got in his car and sighed. "Hinata is going to kill me."

He opened the door to see Daisuke curled up on the couch and Hinata in the kitchen racking out something into the trashcan. She looked up at him for a moment and back down. "Hey…" She mumbled.

He rubbed his neck. "Hey," He walked to Daisuke. "Dai…" He poked his cheek. "Wake up Dai…" The little boy grumbled and opened his onyx eyes to his father. "I'm sorry dude…"

He pouted. "You promised…"

"I know."

He sat up. "Y-You weren't here!"

He nodded. "Time slipped away from me…"

Daisuke stared at him for a long minute before nodding and rubbing his eyes. "I sleepy…" He mumbled.

"Want me to tuck you in?"

He shook his head. "No, I'm a big boy." He jumped up and padded to his room. Sasuke sat on the couch, placing his head in his hands. Hinata hummed softly in the kitchen as she cleared off the counter.

"He's going to forgive you." She mumbled.

He looked up. "Seriously," He stood walking over. "Time just slipped."

She nodded. "It happens."

He watched her clean the already clean kitchen. He sighed. "Hinata… is something wrong?"

She wavered for a second. "No, nothing is wrong…"

He smirked. "I know you inside and out."

She looked up at him. "Do you?"

His smirked dulled. "Hina-"

She shook her head. "He cried," She wiped the counter. "I mean he cries… but he hates crying, you know that." She smiled sadly. "I wouldn't have thought too much of it if it you were an hour late."

"I to-"

"But four hours late," She raised her hands counting. "That's nine hours and nine hours just don't slip." She went to the sink. "It's none of my business… I'm not your wife, girlfriend or mother so I can't tell you what to do…"

He walked to her as he scrubbed a pot. "Hinata, I told you."

She looked up at him. "Once you start this habit, it'll continue." She nodded. "Just like last time."

He grabbed her shoulders. "It's not. It won't happen again."

She shrugged. "Don't tell me that," She pointed to the door that was still cracked. "Tell him that." She moved away. "I'm going to bed."

Naruto threw the basketball and missed. "Awh shit!" Sasuke smirked and grabbed it. "Dude, you're cheating!"

"How is that?"

"You're vibe is killing my chances."

"My vibe?"

He nodded. "Yes, your vibe!" He snatched the ball. The raven haired boy sighed. "What's going on?"

"Things are crazy around the house."

He paused. "Really?"

Sasuke narrowed his eyes. "What do you know?"

Naruto rolled his eyes. "Why do I always have to know something?" He yelled. "Even if I did know something about your problems do you think I would tell you?"

"So you do know something?"

"Dude, I can't tell you that."

Sasuke walked up to him. "What do you know, dobe?"

Naruto scoffed. "I am eighteen! I am a man you ca-" Sasuke grabbed his nose. "Ow! Okay, Okay, Hinata thinks you're mad at her!"

He let go. "What?"

The blond fell to his knees rubbing his nose. "That hurts teme!"

Sasuke crouched down. "Why would I be mad at her?"

"I don't know!" He sat Indian-style and closed his eyes. "I want to know why have you been so M.I.A!"

Sasuke sat down. "I have not."

Naruto crossed his arms. "Bullshit!"

Sasuke sighed. "You have to swear to secrecy."

Naruto smacked his teeth. "What are we? Girls? Dude, I won't tell a soul."

Sasuke rubbed his temples. "I… have a… I'm seeing someone."

Naruto nodded. "Alright, where is the secret?"

The Uchiha blinked. "That is the secret."

"Bitch, I knew that! Why is it a secret? Oh, shit is it Hanabi? Is that why you won't tell anyone? Oh man, you can't screw both of the sisters and isn't she lik-" He punched him in the face.

"Shut up, you idiot!" Sasuke growled. "No, it's not Hanabi."

He rubbed his swelling cheek. "So it's a dude!? Dude, are you batting for the other team because man… I'll accept you eit-" He paused seeing him raise his fist again. "Okay, Okay… who is it?"

"Naruto if I find out you-"

"Dude, no loose lips around here."

Sasuke took a deep breath. "So I saw Orohime-"

Naruto stood. "Please don't tell me it's that bitch!"

"She's not a bitch." He stood up.

"Are you fucking me?!" He yelled as some girls jogged by. His blue eyes flickered red. "She is a fucking bitch!"

"Shut up."

"Sasuke, this is that same hoe that got you locked up! You can go to jail now with the big boys! DO you know what they do to pretty boys like you in prison?" He pointed at his butt.

"You called me pretty," Sasuke watch Naruto's mouth drop. "Dobe, she's clean."

"Fuck that shit, I need a doctor slip because I wouldn't believe anything that bitch says! No wonder you've been keeping her a secret Hinata will drop kick you in the face and then kill her."

"This is why I haven't told anyone."

Naruto poked him in the chest. "I don't condone hitting females but if I see her I might just upper-cut that hoe!"

"Now, Naruto…" The blond froze at a feminine voice behind him. "That's just rude!" Naruto turned around to see a very much alive Orohime.

Naruto growled as she walked up to them. Naruto looked at his friend. "Why is she out in the open?"

Sasuke sighed and looked at her. "Why are you here?"

She pouted. "I live here now, remember? And I happen to jog here."

Naruto crossed his arms. "Bullshit, we come here every Wednesday."

"Why so hostile?"

He growled. "I should leave before I bite this bitch."

She stepped back. "Naruto, I assure you I have changed."

He stepped up to her. "You can't change, once a snake always a snake," He looked at Sasuke. "Whatever, later man."

"Naruto…" Sasuke called after him to receive a dismissive wave.

She sighed. "Sasuke…" She hugged him. "Don't worry about him, okay?" She pulled back. "You have me and that's all you need, baby."

His eyes widen. "Oh shit…baby! Daisuke!" He pulled away. "I gotta go!" He broke out into a sprint. Hinata is going to kill me!
