CHAPTER TEN

'RANTING IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE'

In the Uchiha household Kaito was just coming downstairs for his breakfast. It had been difficult convincing his father, uncle and cousin that over camp he had developed a big appetite but it was done. There was no way Kaito was going without his three course meal! He was a growing boy, he needed his food.

And as cool as his bog brother was, he ate like a mouse! One bowl of rice and a small fish was not breakfast. Dammit Kaito misses eating crisps and wotsits from cereal bowls. But spending time with his father was worth it these past two weeks were all worth it.

He skipped the last three steps when he heard Sasuke calling him. he went to where he was to find his somewhat moody uncle holding the phone to his chest "Saito, there's an Eustace Plotter on the phone for you, says he's a friend from camp. Really good Japanese, and he sounds like he could be your twin." He said with a smirk.

Kaito resisted a gasp "My twin huh? Very funny Sasuke" taking the phone he feigned an interested yet polite accent "Oh Eustace...yes I'm fine, how are you?"

Meanwhile in London, England the real Saito Uchiha was in the bathroom with a phone in his hand and a frantic expression "Kaito stop messing about, this is serious!"

Kaito in Japan laughed "Oh, I agree, so..." he drifted off and looked pointedly at Sasuke who left at the gesture. Kaito looked left and right for a safe place to talk. "...if you'll just hang on for a moment Eustace..."

"Ok Kai, but you need to hurry, I have something monumental to tell you!"

Finally Kaito spotted the coat closet and shut himself inside "aright it's safe. Oh my god Saito, Dad is so cool. He's the most amazing person I've ever met. When he plays kendo is a different kind of cool from when he's being my dad. I can't believe I went this long without getting to know what he's like. I'm super happy. And uncle Sasuke is just as cool but nowhere near as cool as father and I don't know why you have such a big problem with Shisui, I think he's funny and..."

"im glad you're having such a good time Kaito, but you need to listen to me now! Listen Mom's in love!"

Kaito stopped in mid-rant. "That's not possible, mom doesn't fall in love. She's always said love was for losers."

"Well she seemed pretty attached to this one. His name is Michael and he's bloody awful, he treats mom likes she has no brain and he's always hugging her and kissing her neck and squeezing her arse, it's disgusting. And she lets him!"

Kaito fumbled for words "oh no" he groaned "not good, this could ruin everything!"

"I know, that's why we have to tell them the truth now!"

"Now, don't be stupid, I've only just gotten to know dad, we've only had two weeks together. No I won't do it, you're just going to have to break them up or something, sabotage them."

"Well I'm a little at a disadvantage, I've only just met the woman two weeks ago, I'm not exactly an expert at what annoys her."

"Hey. That didn't stop you when you were pranking me. Don't worry, the Nii-chan that covered me and my cabin with chocolate sauce and pillow feathers can do this" he seared through a pocket of a nearby coat and to his delight found a sweet wrapper. Crinkling it at the phone he spoke "sorry...bad...connection...breaking...up...bye." and switched the phone and stumbled out the closet to find Shisui and his father looking at him with confusion. He laughed awkwardly and stood "Soo, breakfast anyone?"

"Kaito, Kaito!" Saito called before turning off the phone too. "That boy makes everything more difficult" he groaned and went to his bedroom to sleep on the matter.

"So here we go" Tsunade said "two eggs sunny side up with a side of bacon. Fruit loops cereal and if you're extra hungry then a stack of extra chocolate-chip pancakes." She said as she set the food down before Saito who sat at the kitchen table.

Saito blinked and snapped out of his day dream "thanks Tsunade" and smiled but didn't make any action to begin eating. Tsunade's smiled disappeared "what you're not hungry again? You hardly touched you wotsits, your favourite floor in the world and the only thing I do see you eat is Dango but still, you usually inhale you food every morning. What's the matter sweetie, are you sick" she said as she held a hand to his forehead.

Saito shook his head "no, no. I'm just not too hungry. I'm fine, I promise. Where's mom?"

Tsunade pulled a face and walked to the stove "oh, she and Mr. 'I'll just have a granola bar, thanks' went out an hour ago." She smiled "you overslept and she didn't want to wake you. Course I would be sleepy too if I was making mysterious calls in the middle of night from my bathroom."

Saito choked on the spoonful of fruit loops he was taking "oh, oh that. I was calling a friend from camp, Eustace. He lives in Japan"

"oh, I see" Tsunade said as she poured a cup of coffee, she wasn't really suppose to have coffee, but Shizune was on holiday so what she didn't know wouldn't hurt her. "So you waited until midnight to call your friend at a time convenient for him because of the time difference?"

"Exactly, that's the reason" Saito said, glad to have avoided a uneventful situation.

"Ok look smarty pants, your mother wants to see you at the hospital as soon as you're done with breakfast. Just get a taxi and give him a huge tip"

"Thanks" Saito with a grin and he took a bite of his pancake "I'm done" but as he stood up Sky, the family Border collie began barking at him. Saito side stepped the hound and smiled sheepishly at Tsunade "that dog has gotten so weird." He tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge.

From behind him Tsunade called "Push Kai-kun"

Saito nearly hit himself; in his surprise at the dog he had forgotten that you pushed all the doors in Saito's house. "Right, sorry I...forgot" he said and pushed "thanks again for breakfast Tsunade, it was really good."

He left and Tsunade let her smile drop to a suspicious frown.

Saito had taken her advice and gotten a taxi to meet his mom. After she was done with work they went for a walk in the park. They got ice-cream, chocolate fro Saito and strawberry for Sakura and were strolling though the greenery when she said "I'm really glad you came today darling, because there's something I want to talk to you about."

Saito looked up "good because there's something I want to talk to you about"

Sakura grinned "really, good, great minds think alike. You go first"

"No you" Saito insister, his news was far bigger then hers anyway. It would take a lot longer to explain.

"Alright" Sakura laughed "I wanted to ask you, what do you think of Michael?"

"And I want to talk to you about my father...what about Michael?"

Sakura raised an eyebrow "what about your father?"

Saito sighed "mom I'm almost eleven, how long do you expect me to believe the story that a stork dropped me on the doorstep?"

Sakura sighed "come on Kai, we've talked about your father. We talked about him only a few days ago when you asked me if I loved him."

"Yes, but a boy needs more in life than simply reassurance that he was born out of love and not some mistake. I want to know what he was like. Mom face it, I'm almost a teenager, I need a father in my life, someone to look up to and Naruto and Sai don't always make the cut."

Sakura smiled "you know what, your right. Your absolutely right. Which brings me to..."

But they were interrupted as they just exited the park to find Michael leaning on his sports car with a smile.

"Michael" Sakura said with surprise "what are you doing here?"

Michael stood and kissed her cheek as a dark haired woman in a business outfit stepped out of the car "hi there Saku. Hey little man." He nodded to the woman "Little man this is my assistant Meredith, Meredith this is Saku's son Kaito. The one I told you so much about" he sent him a look.

Meredith smiled fake at him "hello Kaito

Kaito returned the fame smile "hi there"

"So Saku" Michael said twirling some of Sakura's pink hair round his finger "did you tell him?"

"Almost" Sakura smiled.

"Hey. If the two of you are free later why don't we all have lunch at this great restaurant I've heard about? I'll make the reservations and everything."

"Well actually" Sakura said, putting an arm around Kaito's shoulder "I promised Kaito we'd go ice skating later." Kaito smiled smugly at Michael who pretended not to see.

"Oh, no problem" Michael said "I have work to do anyway. We're making a business transaction with this company later, it will be a huge opportunity for the hospital, you'll be so happy" he got into his car and the woman followed.

"See you for dinner darling. Bye little man"

"Buy Mick" Saito waved.

As Michael drove of his dropped the smile "the first change I'm making as soon as we're married is sending that little two-faced brat all the way to a boarding school in Switzerland" he said coldly.

Meredith grinned "you you are so bad"

"You know it baby" he said sending a flirtatious look at her which she melted to.

Meanwhile Saito and Sakura went ice skating which turned out to be more fun then he originally thought.

When he had heard they were going to slide about on ice he had been instantly against it. But it was easier as he tried more and more until he was finally going a full circle without falling down. Sakura was doing all sorts of complicated twists and jumps and twirls that had the whole ring clapping in appreciation to her talent. Saito repeated in his head just how cool his mother really was.

When they were finished they took a taxi home and the two of them were laughing from the fun they had. Sakura recovered first and took on a serious note. "So sweetie, you excited about our camping trip?"

Saito frowned "what camping trip" but realising that this was something Kaito would know about the revised himself "oh that camping trip. Yeah, real excited."

"soo" Sakura began "what do you think of Michael?"

Saito's training of keeping his emotions off his face with his father came in handy for this conversation as he smiled a brilliant but fake smile and said "as what mom, your friend, your boyfriend, your business man your..."

"Just, what do you think about him?" she asked nervously. Sakura really liked this guy and it would be horrible for her of her precious son didn't like him especially with the news she had for him.

"Well, he had nice hair, he's cure, good teeth, he can state the bleeding obvious. Honestly Mom, the man is a complete stranger to me. Why do you want to know anyway?"

"Well because..."

Oh no, Saito recognised that expression, it was the expression of a woman about the say fatal words, words he did not want to hear. Thankfully they had arrived and he jumped out the car.

"Hey, Kaito come back! I'm trying to tell you something!" Sakura called, but Kaito ignored.

He came stomping into the living room and began pacing "I am so in over my head in this" he spoke out lout to no one "I mean, I can't handle this, I'm only one kid. Stupid stupid boy, leaving me on my own in this" he said thinking about how unhelpful his little brother was the other night.

Suddenly one of the chairs in the living room swirled round to reveal Tsunade sitting in it with a frown "you have something you wan to share with the class Kai?"

Naruto appeared from the side lined with another frown "yeah Kai-kun, what gives?

Saito jumped "oh Tsunade, Naruto, you gave me a fright"

Tsunade's frown deepened "'I gave you a fright'" she repeated

Saito realised his mistake and revised "I mean you...scared me. I didn't know you were like...there." he began to back up as Tsunade stood up and folded her arms.

"Are you sure there isn't anything you want to talk to me about" she said. Saito shook his head.

"Like how Sky won't go near you anymore, and you won't eat when you love your food, and how you're using expressions like 'I gave you a fright'"

"and how you sometimes forget to call me and Sai 'uncle'" Naruto added

Saito sighed "I...changed a lot over the summer, that's all. There's nothing wrong with having a small appetite or using good English once in a while." He said.

Tsunade looked at him for a while before shrugging "alright, but you know for a moment I thought you were..." she trailed off and shook her head "forget it, it's impossible" she turned away but was stopped temporarily by his voice.

"Almost as if I were who? Tsunade"

Tsunade glanced over her shoulder and shook her head "forget, it, it doesn't matter anyway" she turned and began to walk away.

Saito bit his lip. Should he take the plunge, should he tell her? it could ruin everything. Saito decided to take that risk "almost as if I were...Saito?"

Tsunade stopped in her tracks and turned slowly. Naruto was looking at him with an expression mixed with shock and slight hope. "How do you know about Saito?" Tsunade asked.

Saito took in a breath "I...am Saito"

Tsunade's face broke out in a look crossed between shock and pure happiness.

"No way" Naruto gasped as he looked at his cousin in shock.

Just then Sakura appeared though the door way "Kaito, don't jump out of car so suddenly like that" she said "honestly, I was just about to tell you something important." She looked up at the expression Tsunade and Naruto were giving him. "Tsunade why are you looking at him like that" she said with amusement.

Saito tried to send a look of 'please don't tell' to the two of them without his mother noticing.

Tsunade choked "what do you mean? I'm not looking at him way special way, I'm looking at him like I've always looked at him. since he first came home from the hospital." her voice began to choke, like she was holding back tears "six pounds, eleven ounces, twenty one inches long, this is how I look at him." she choked on her tears "can I hold him?"

Saito allowed her to sweep him into a bone crushing hug "oh my god he's so beautiful, and so big!" she cried, kissing the top of his head.

Sakura looked with confusion at Naruto who snapped out of his own dazed expression to take Tsunade but he arms and try to help her out the room. She called "I'm gonna make you something special to eat., what do you want? You know, don't worry I'll just whip up everything we got" and with that Naruto was finally able to get her to the kitchen.

"Ok grandma Tsunade, calm down" he said calmly.

Tsunade slapped his hand off "Don't touch me boy" she snapped, and then broke out in fresh tears "can you believe it Naruto, he's here. After eight years little Saito's in that room even since Sakura made the decision to let that ex-husband of hers take him. he looks just like Kaito, oh he's so hansom, can you believe it!"

Naruto smiled happily, he could still remember how remarkable the two of them had looked as babied and Sakura told him he was an uncle. And how much she had cried after she had let that Itachi take her eldest baby after the divorce. Wait till Sai found out.

"Grandma Tsunade, you know you can tell Sakura?"

"Why the hell not, she's be so happy! I, I guess this means Kaito is with Itachi, but then this is fair..."

"You don't get it, there must be a reason why Saito doesn't want Sakura to know, let's not ruin it for him" he said with a smile. Tsunade nodded.

"Ok, I understand"

Sakura watched with surprise as she watched Naruto escort Tsunade to the kitchen. She looked at Kaito "what was that all about?"

Kaito shrugged "who knows."

"Alright then" she took him my the shoulders and led him to the sofa where she sat him down "listen Kaito, we have to talk"

"Ok" Kaito grinned "shoot"

"Honey, I want to know what you think, about making Michael apart of our family."

Kaito blinked and grinned. That looked like a good sign

"Oh sure that would be great" he gushed.

Sakura felt her heart soar "really, you mean it?"

Kaito nodded "I mean it it's an awesome idea"

"Really"

"Totally, it's inspiring"

"You're serious"

"Yeah I'm really serious, it's a dream come true" he grinned "I've always wanted a big brother!"

Sakura's face fell "um, honey I think you sort of missed the point"

Kaito continued to grin "No I didn't, you want to adopt Michael. I think that's a brilliant idea. You are rally kind mom and I..."

Sakura interrupted "no, I'm not going to adopt him. Listen Kaito" she took in a deep breath and said it "Michael proposed to me, and I said yes. I'm going to marry him."

Kaito's face fell and he jumped to his feet "WHAT! MARRY HIM, THAT''S INSANE, HOW COULD YOU MARRY A MAN OLD ENOUGH TO BE MY BIG BROTHER!" he cried and began pacing while ranting in a language Sakura didn't understand.

"Kai" she said, yet he continued to rant.

"Kaito!", he continued to rant, this time with hand gestured and more furious pacing

"KAITO!" She cried and grabbed his shoulders "just calm down and...Are you speaking Spanish" she said suddenly after recognising the language.

Kaito blinked "I, I learned it at camp." He took in a deep breath "Ok, I'm sorry. Let's discuss this calmly..." he panted, still tired from his stressful rant in another language "calmly and rationally."

Sakura nodded "Ok, and English, if you don't mind" she joked with a half hearted smile. But inside Sakura was feeling torn up. She had know Kaito world be unhappy, but not unhappy enough to complain in another language, what had he even been saying?

She caressed his cheek and stroked his hair "sweetheart, what has gotten into you?"

"nothing nothing" Kaito said "I just..." his face crumples in a way that made Sakura's heart break "Mom you just can't get married, it will totally ruin everything!" and with that he ran off upstairs to his room"

Sakura groaned and made her way to the garden terrace. She looked up at Tsunade and Naruto who had been watching the exchange. Tsunade shrugged "dost ask me, I know othing2 she said as she disappeared into the kitchen.

"Uhh, likewise" Naruto added as he disappeared into the dining room.

Sakura groaned again and flumped into a deck chair "he thought I was going to adopt him?" she cried and groaned. Just then she felt a pair of hands cover her eyes "adopt who?" came a light boyish voice from behind her as her fiancée kissed her cheek.

Sakura looked up at him adoringly. "Nothing"

What was wrong with being in love with a younger man? Her last husband was five years older than her, and look how that turned out. Sakura pushed out thought of Itachi and pointedly ignored the painful feelings that came with thinking of the once love-of-her-life.

Michael was her love now, there was no one else in her life and she was to push Itachi out of her mind for good. And besides, so Michael was a little controlling, he did that because he cared. Itachi rarely ever even complimented her when they were together, he rarely showed affection outside family and the home while Michael showered her with affection.

And why couldn't anyone see?

SHE. WAS. HAPPY!

Sighing she looked up as Michal helped her sand and sat in her place where he made the effort to pull her down so she was sitting on his lap. "Hi Doll?" he said with his boyish grin.

"Hi" Sakura groaned

"Awww" he played with her hair "stress baby?"

"Yeah" she relied as Michael kissed her. Sakura loved his kisses, she allowed him entrance as his tongue asked for it and moaned into his kiss. It made her fell all warm and tingly. She loved Michael sp why didn't Kaito?

When he pulled away he smiled "how about a drink?"

"Yeah" Sakura nodded "that sounds good, I'd like vodka."

"TSUNADE!" He shouted. Sakura stared in shock at the blatant disrespect he showed towards her beloved grandmother. This was the only thing she didn't like about him.

Tsunade appeared "you bellowed" she said with dripping sarcasm.

"One martini for me and something fruity for Sakura" he said "vodka isn't a drink of a woman such as yourself"

Sakura wasn't in the mood to argue with him, so she just sent a desperate look at Tsunade "please, I really need it"

Tsunade's hard look disappeared for a moment before she glared at Michael "I'll get one for Sakura, but you can get your own damn drink, I'm not your maid. Oh, Sakura, Shizune's back, I'll fill her in on everything."

'And I mean everything' Tsunade thought to herself as she returned to the house.

Michael clicked his tongue "some people can be so rude, I hope you don't take after her."

Sakura wanted to rebuke him for his rudeness but she was too stressed."I told Kaito" she said.

Michael turned to her "you did? And?"

Sakura gave him a defeated look "he went ballistic, he started yelling in Spanish, I didn't even know he spoke Spanish!" she sighed as Michael sat up a bit more. "I don't know what's happened to him"

"Oh Saku" he said and began to rub her shoulder in a way she loved "this reaction is totally normal, I'd be surprised if he didn't act this way. Tell you what, how about I talk to him?"

"Please" Sakura said.

Saito was panicking.

She was getting married" this wasn't suppose to happen, she wasn't suppose to be getting married, this was totally not what was supposed to happen. He collapsed on his bad and groaned.

Hearing a knock on his door he answered "come in" thinking it might be Tsunade. Instead it was Michael "knock knock, can I join you"

"Sure" Saito replied sitting up on the side of the bed.

Michael came in and sat opposite him on the chair. "So I guess the news about the marriage was a bit of a shocker huh?"

"Basically" Saito admitted.

"You know, I remember what it was like to be ten. You feel like you're just staring to be a man and believe it or not, soon you will know what it feels like to be in love."

"Hate to be all realistic when your being all mushy. But I know exactly what my mom see's in you."

"You do?" he said with a forced smile.

"Yes, you're young and hansom, rich and sexy. But if you take it from me, love depends on more than just sex." He stood and paced slightly, giving Saito a controlled feeling he so desperately needed.

"Being hansom and young is not a crime you know" Michael said "and for your 411, I am madly in love with your mother. She's everything I've ever dreamed of and I'm so glad to be marrying her. This is the real deal little man and I hate to break it you, but face it, you're not the only one in her life now. Get over it"

"So if this is the real deal "Saito smirked "then my mother's money has nothing to do with it, right?"

"Wow, your mother grossly underestimates you" he said

"But you won't, will you Michael?" Saito smirked.

Suddenly Saito felt a sudden pain on his upper arm and looked to find Michel was squeezing his arm in a death grip to a ten year old boy. He not down on his lip to hide the pain.

"Ok you little brat, you listen to me and you listen good" he glared, his nice guy act completely dropped as he revealed his true character "I am marrying your mother in two weeks and there is nothing you can do about it. you are in waaay over your head. Is that clear."

Despite the pain Saito smirked "crystal"

Michel grinned and dropped his and. He stood to leave and stopped at the door "oh and let's just keep that whole matter and this conversation our little secret " he nodded at Saito's bruising arm "we wouldn't want to upset our mother, right?" and he left.

Saito bit his lip and flexed his arm. His was bruised enough to leave a slight mark, but not to hinder his actions.

He needed to call Kaito...FAST!

MICHAEL REVEALS HIS TRUE NATURE!

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT? REVEIW AND YOU WILL FIND OUT.
