"...all that had been found was lost, and all that had been dreamed, disturbed."
-Mordred,Bastard Son
I didn't want to wait for my Beta to return these two chapters so i went ahead and did a quick revision myself and post it.Thanks for the reviews.
At the Airport the Next Day
"Itachi-san! over here!" waved a happy Sakura next to a sleepy Temari.
"Where is everyone else?" asked the newcomer.
"I have no clue, but if they don't get Sasuke here quick we might lose our plane"
Two minutes afterwards arguing could be heard. All heads in the area turned when two people dragging a third entered.
"Sasuke! If i say you are going it means you are going!" yelled Uchiha dragging Sasuke by the collar of his shirt.
"Sasuke-kun don't be difficult its just for a couple of weeks I'm sure you can handle it!" followed a breathless Sen, hair flying about while pushing her son forward.
"NOO! i refuse, this is against human rights and freedom! just because you are my parents it doesn't mean you should get to make me do stuff against my will ! I won't go dammit! I want to go back home! ". Suddenly Sasuke had an idea in order to make a successful escape. What do you need? a brilliant and classy distraction.Stopping his struggles and taking a deep breath and out came...
"ITACHI'S GAY!" yep definitely got a good distraction there.Instead of being able to flee the hand on his neck tightened, and an angry face was shoved in front of his.
"what did you say?" it was low and slow, barely contained anger. With an undignified squeak Sasuke answered
"Itachi is gay...?" he swallowed when the eyes boring into his seemed to glow in anger.In the background someone started laughing and two pair of eyes turned to see who dared. It was Temari, she was doubled over , leaning heavily onto Itachi who looked bored.
"Sasuke-kun...pant..i don't know...pant...where you got that idea from...pant... but i can assure you..Itachi is everything but gay.Actually..." she looked at Itachi with adoring eyes and asked "...can i tell them honey?" Itachi nodded and sneaked his arm around her waist.
"Last night Itachi asked me to marry him, and i said yes.We were going to wait and tell you when we got back but..." she smiled mischievously and looked at Sasuke "...due to the circumstances i must speak up to defend my fiance."
Sasuke's jaw clenched tightly. -Itachi's getting married? Why? I saw him with that other guy...- His thoughts were interrupted by a happy cry and two bodies passing by him at lighting speed.This time Itachi was not able to avoid the incoming hug of death.
"Ita-chan! I'm so happy for and you, my dear! My future daughter in law, this is so exciting I'm so proud of you both. You've got to let me help with the wedding preparations!" Well Sen was overjoyed.
"Itachi my son, today is such a happy day. I want you to know I'm very proud of being your father, and i wish you the bests of lucks on your marriage" the words were followed by a strong handshake and a feeble
"thank you father" from Itachi.
Sakura along with Sen were doing a happy circles around Temari who was smiling.Itachi and Uchiha spoke in whispers.
About 10 feet away Sasuke stood just watching.They were happy, without him there to spoil it.He didn't belong there, he didn't belong anywhere.Why did he feel betrayed? desolated, empty.Why did his chest keep hurting? Why did he want to run until his lungs refused to work and his legs to move again?.He should be happy since he had wished for Itachi to disappear, it had been his exact words.Now if Itachi got married he would leave and not be a bother.Itachi was there smiling slightly, but his eyes were empty until he looked up and they filled with hate? or was it pain? maybe sadness or resignation?.Whatever it was it made Sasuke's heart stop beating and an excruciating pain over take his senses until those eyes left his.
"All passengers in flight 305 with destination to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil please board plane."
"That's our plane! Come on we got to go!" Squealed Sakura while Itachi grabbed their belongings and started to move towards the gate after a hasty "Bye" to his parents.Temari followed trailed by Sakura who seemed to remember something and turned.
"Sasuke-kun! come on!"
Said person was still chained down in his own little world too out of it to care if someone was talking to him.Fugaku gazed at his son and scowled while walking up to him and looking down with disgust written all over his features.
"Since I'm in a good mood right now i would advice that you get out of my sight before i reconsider and instead of sending you to Brazil i change your trip to Siberia and leave you there for LONG time. Using such tasteless tactics to get out of something that isn't really a threat to your life but something you would enjoy, I'm so disappointed in you. I don't know why i listen to your mother.Now leave before i change my mind, oh and by the way apologize to your brother and Temari, and i hope you like your birthday presents. "
With that two bags were shoved in his face and a kick in the back made him move forward.Sasuke stood in the place for a bit as if waiting for something to happen but seeing as nothing did he started moving towards the gate.Thinking that nothing more could go wrong he boarded the plane,too bad the fates were conspiring against him.
"Sasuke-kun come! we are sitting over here!" yelled Sakura doing a little wave
-why why why must the universe be cruel to me in such a way! thank whatever deity up there that it isn't a long flight or else i would have to hang myself really its preferable to sitting next to Sakura for more than five minutes-
"I'm coming"
Sasuke's sit was next to the window -hn, it must have been mom who chose the sitting chart- Sakura was to his left and the engaged couple was sitting in front of them.After several failed attempts of forced polite conversation Sakura ended up playing a game in her cell phone and Sasuke finally free to think.
-Apologize my ass, i know he is gay or at least bi, i mean if he wasn't he wouldn't have been kissing that guy.Bastard he couldn't have the worse timing to get engaged.What does he see in her anyways? I never really pictured Itachi getting married but if he were i would think it would be a quiet woman,intelligent, and sophisticated ya know the kind that are like puppets.Definitely never Temari although she has an attitude that compliments Itachi's and they look like they both enjoy kinky sex eerr...not a good train of thought...Anyways I'm not apologizing. What the hell birthday presents? My birthday isn't until next week, fucker can't even get my birthday right.- With such thoughts Sasuke fell asleep.
About 7hours later the little group stood inside the Copacabana Palace Hotel. The place was stunning, a mix between modern and classic architecture that seemed cozy yet elegant.Everyone got their own rooms and were heading towards the elevator when...
"BULL'S EYE!" and Sasuke was tackled down by a flying mass of a body.
"THE FUCK! WHO..Naruto?" Sasuke looked up into warm blues and a silly grin over his own face which twisted in confusion.
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh umm i dunno really, it was Gaara who told me to pack up that we were going on vacation.Then when we were on a plane and i tried to get him to tell me why we were coming here but he told me to shut my mouth or go hang myself before he strangled me if i didn't shut up.Then i didn't wanna shut up 'cause it was boring so i started poking Gaara and you know what he did? he twisted my finger really bad, it still hurts.Then he told me that if i didn't stop bitching about the finger he would break my neck.Then i shut up but i was still bored so..."
"I get it, i get it, now will you get off? It might not look like it but you are kinda of heavy" said Sasu-chan pushing himself up straight and trying to get Naruto to let him go.On the side three people stood, two of them holding their laughs while the third held a mix of pain,jealousy, and envy that was quickly replaced by indifference lest someone would notice.
"Are you saying I'm fat? Don't be mean Sa-chan! i missed you so much! why do you gotta be so mean!" replied the blond while hugging Sasuke and nuzzling his neck, legs grabbing the waist.
"Dobe it was only three days you are being ridiculous, and stop molesting me I'm not one of your man whores!"
"But teme you are definitely man whore material! a total bishie i don't know why you resist my irresistible sex appeal when you and i know that what you need is to get laid."
"Naruto let Sasuke go now " said a dark voice from behind them followed by Gaara's form appearing.
"But Ga-chan now i have an excuse to touch him you know how he gets with his whole -my body holier than thou- stuff"
Gaara's knuckles made a crack sound followed by a glare which Naruto waved off with a shrug.
"Fine I'll get off, besides if i really wanted Sasuke i could have him,don't go getting all jealous Gaara plus i wouldn't mind sharing! oh imagine that a threesome..yumm..so sexy.Plus I'm in a quite satisfying relationship right now." Sasuke snorted at that and asked
"YOU in a relationship? Please who is the sucker who fell for whatever sappy crap you said?"
"I will have you know it was TenTen, and she is really smart, and i wasn't faking it.It isn't my fault i was thrown into a country with lots of sexy people for a week and i might end up having lots of one night stands and one day stands." replied a pouting Naru-chan while Sasuke sighed and finally noticed that they were not alone.
"Naruto, Gaara, you remember Sakura and that's her sister Temari."
"Yo!" said Naruto while doing the peace sign. Gaara just nodded his head and turned to Sasuke without waiting for an answer.
"Sasuke can we go now? We need to speak in private." Sakura frowned at the rudeness while Temari just shrugged and pulled Itachi towards the elevator since they obviously were not needed around.
"Yeah sure, let's go I'll unpack later." (In expensive hotels they take your stuff up to your room.Not that i have been in one.)
Naruto jumped ahead putting his hands behind his head grinning like a fool while Sasuke walked next to Gaara in silence. They got into the elevator which took them to the 5th floor. Deciding Naruto's room was worse than a virgin rain forest they went to Gaara's suite that was at the end of the hall from Naruto's own. Upon entering Naruto happily skipped over to the huge glass window which had an amazing view of the beach. Sasuke got himself comfortable in a love seat while Gaara jumped on the soft bed and looked at the ceiling.
"Now tell me what are you doing here? I know Iruka won't mind letting Naruto go into some foreign country since he would annoy him to death if he didn't, but your father its another business entirely, plus letting you miss school?"
"He doesn't know I'm here" replied Gaara nonchalantly from the bed.
"say what! do you know how much trouble you could get into for doing this? and if he didn't pay for this who did? and how come you willingly brought the dobe along?"
"Well yesterday morning i got pulled out of class and was told i had an important call. When i got into the office and answered the phone your mother was on the other side, as you can imagine i was quite surprised i didn't know she knew i existed or Naruto for that matter since she had only seen us a few times when not traveling.Anyways she told me that you were coming to Brazil today and if we had liked to join you,her argument being that your birthday was coming up and they wanted you to enjoy it with your closest friends. Of course i said yes and after getting all the information i needed, and got Naruto out of school we got on a plane and came here. We have been waiting for you to show up since then."
"Yeah Sasuke it was an awesome move from your parents to do this in order to soften you up a bit so you won't be such a sourpuss."
"Shut up dobe, well i gotta say I'm actually surprised this is nothing like them.Hmmm can't help but be paranoid about what they want from me if they are being this attentive."
"Well whatever they are up to just forget about it for now, lets enjoy our free time before going to our miserable and monotonous life" said Naruto turning around and looking at Sasuke with the eyes of someone who got their puppy killed.Sasuke sighed and rubbed his temple.
"So anything new or of importance that we should know about? I mean it is pretty weird that your parents have a thoughtful delicacy with you." asked Gaara alert green eyes looking at Sasuke and scrutinizing him.
"As matter of fact there is, Itachi is getting married."
"SAY WHAT?" yelled Naruto from across the room while Gaara frowned.
"Who is he marrying?" he asked
"Temari, he asked her yesterday and she agreed." responded Sasuke while moving his eyes toward the window not wanting Gaara to see his eyes while he said this.
"But..but...but Sasuke! Itachi's gay we saw him kissing that other guy! Besides that means i won't be able to seduce him! that's not fair...although i gotta say he has good taste,that Temari chick looks fine as hell." said Naruto jumping on the bed next to Gaara who looked over at him and scowled.
"I thought he was gay too, but apparently he isn't.Well whatever its none of my business. Guys i'm tired I'll see you tomorrow, and Gaara keep Naruto away from sugar or you won't be able to sleep."
"See ya tomorrow teme!" replied a grinning Naruto.Gaara just waved his hand and stuffed his face on the pillow.After the door had close Gaara looked up with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Naruto did you see or sense something wrong with Sasuke as if he was not telling us something?"
"Yeah something is weird remember before he was all excited about learning stuff about Itachi and now he is acting like when he didn't care about anything, i gotta say i like him more when he is excited about something he sounds more human and certainly more interesting." replied Naruto his smile fading a little.
"Yeah we gotta find out what's going on, keep your eyes open tomorrow ok? "
"Yeah i will." Naruto looked at Gaara with curious eyes and asked
"Why didn't you tell him about what you found out in that guy's record?"
"I don't know, its not the right time, he is obviously distracted by something, besides i don't how it would affect his mood.I'll tell him when we get back, let him enjoy his birthday in peace." responded Gaara stretching his arms and pushing Naruto off the bed.
"SON OF A BITCH!" and thus the epic battle of two demons begun.
