A/N: So, thanks to a reviewer I have to change the ending now that it's been guessed. So, Karin will not be run over by a Harry Potter bus while Naruto and Sasuke take Hiruzen out and about… Just kidding. I'd never force anything Harry Potter to be tainted with Karin's blood. ;]
Sorry for all spelling errors.
Chapter 11
Naruto still wasn't sure how, but the next few days had passed quickly and he was actually already going to start his new job. He had obtained a temporary work visa faster than anyone imagined possible and was getting a suit on that Sasuke had gone out and hand-picked. He did the same with the other 6 now hanging in the closet. Naruto found it remotely bizarre that he had moved in with a rich gorgeous stranger who was ultimately taking care of him. It was nice, but at the same time Naruto couldn't really figure out why… Sasuke had even made him breakfast in bed a few times. The pampering was fantastic, but Naruto also couldn't help but be confused.
Naruto walked out of the room and into the kitchen to find Sasuke straightening his tie that Hiruzen kept re-fixing for him.
"Ready to go?" Sasuke asked.
Naruto nodded and picked up the baby and Sasuke grabbed the bag.
"Are we dropping him off somewhere?"
"Yes." Sasuke answered quickly before smiling and grabbing Naruto around the shoulders and kissing him.
They exited the building and got in the car and the driver drove them straight to Sasukes- their work place. They got out of the car and Naruto was talking in that high pitched voice people talk to babies in making Hiruzen stare at him.
"Something is wrong with your child." Naruto announced.
"Well, yeah, have you met his mother?" Sasuke said.
They walked into the building and rode the elevator up to the top floor.
"Ok, so where do we drop this kid off again?"
"You'll see." Sasuke answered with a smile.
Sasuke walked with Naruto down the hallway and straight to the office Sasuke had dropped Hiruzen off in the first time. Naruto got a closer look at the man and almost swore he hadn't moved since he first noticed him. He looked exactly the same except for the tie changed.
"Hi Aniki." Sasuke greeted and then turned towards Naruto, "This is my brother Itachi."
The man smirked and stood up and walked around his desk to shake Naruto's hand.
"I see my otouto had passed the child carrying job onto you…" Itachi said with a slight smile.
"TACHI!" The toddler began doing the 'gimmie hands' and Itachi accepted the Hiruzen. Naruto looked around the office and noticed a corner of the office had a play mat and a play pin as well as an assortment of toys. Within close proximity was also a television and some books.
"You leave the baby with your brother…" Naruto looked at Sasuke amazed.
"Yes, Sasuke and I have an agreement. He deals with the employees and I watch Hiruzen. When it comes time for meeting… the secretary watches the baby." Itachi answered.
"Ah." Naruto said and he and Sasuke took their exit.
Naruto sat at the desk just outside of Sasuke's door swiveling back and forth. Sasuke hadn't actually given him anything to do. Naruto turned the computer on and stared at the screen. God he was bored. Naruto's phone, now equipped with international calling and texting, was catching up on delayed text messages and phone calls, would go off randomly as the messages came through. Naruto had texted Sakura to ensure she was still alive, which she texted back with a yes. Seemed like Rock Lee really was a gentleman. According to her, he was even giving her foot massages. And occasionally, he would get the 'how come you never did this" text from her.
He was happy she had abandoned him and was on board with Mr. Eyebrows. But Sakura had a shallow streak... As long as Rock Lee spoiled her and treated her like a damn queen she would stick around.
He even got an update on his God-child and was happy Hinata was doing well.
But Naruto was very bored. And that's when he noticed a familiar icon on the screen and crossed his fingers. He doubled clicked it and smiled noticing Sasuke was in fact an option to Instant Message. So Naruto bombarded him with instant messages. Naruto could hear Sasuke's computer going off.
"Dobe." Sasuke said peeking his head out from his office.
Naruto seized typing and turned and looked at his boyfriend.
"Are you bored?" Sasuke asked amused.
"Very." Naruto replied.
"Why don't you order us lunch then." Sasuke said and smiled. He pushed off from the door and gave Naruto a peck on the lips before going back in his office.
Naruto looked down at the woman in front of Itachi's office. Naruto got up and walked over to her.
"Excuse me Miss..."
"I'm not a woman, un." The... Man replied.
"Your a dude!" Naruto exclaimed loud enough for both Uchihas to hear and snicker.
"Yes. I'm a dude. I'm also busy. What do you want?" The guy asked.
"What are some good places to eat that will deliver here."
"Any place will accommodate a delivery here..." The man answered.
The two blonde haired blue eyed men stared at each other before the long haired blonde dialed a number.
"Oye, Kisame. Come here." The other guy spoke into the phone.
"I am Deidara by the way. Itachi's receptionist."
"You're not his secretary?"
"In a sense. But I don't have the title." Deidara answered with a shrug.
Naruto got kind of curious. Sasuke had said Itachi screws his secretary..."
The elevator dinger and opened and Naruto saw a huge dark-skinned man. The man walked forward and stopped in front of the two blondes.
"You must be Naruto. I remember hearing something about the youngest Uchiha finally committing... I'm Kisame. Itachi's personal assistant."
"Or as Itachi says, secretary." Deidara finished.
Holy...mother... Wow.
"Speaking of Itachi... Did he ask for me?"
"No. We're hungry." Deidara answered.
Naruto got confused.
"Alright, alright." Kisame shook his head and walked into Itachi's office and came back out after a few minutes.
"Itachi doesn't care." Kisame said with a shrug.
Both Uchiha men would soon regret inadvertently giving the three people with the biggest appetites power over ordering lunch.
The three men who were responsible for basically having ordered a buffet of food set lunch up in the conference room and started eating as soon as it was set up. The smells eventually got into Sasuke's office and Itachi's and they both left and ran into one another on the way.
"I smell pizza." Itachi said.
"I smell barbecue." Sasuke retorted.
The three men walked into the conference room to see the entire table covered in food and an assortment of drinks. They watched in mild disgust seeing the other three eat like they'd been starved. Sasuke took Hiruzen from Itachi who then walked forward and grabbed a salad and a fork before retreating to his office. Sasuke set the toddler down and took a plate and put a few things Hiruzen could eat and then did the same for himself. He looked right at Naruto who had noodles hanging out of his mouth and shook his head.
"Dobe, you are going on a diet and to the gym." Sasuke said seriously.
"Are you calling me fat?" Naruto said after he swallowed the food.
"Not yet."
"What's wrong with my figure?"
"Naruto, I would very much like to have a long term relationship with you and you dropping dead early due to health complications is not apart of the plan." Sasuke said before taking a bite of salad.
Naruto smiled a bit. The bastard was kind of sweet.
Naruto was still kind of confused by Sasuke who had no relationship experience, yet was the perfect boyfriend. Naruto would have to investigate a bit. It took him trial and error to get it down pat when he had started dating. He wasn't complaining, but if he found a bunch of relationship books hidden in Sasuke's condo he may fall in love with him on a whole new level.
A few days had passed and much to Naruto's chagrin, hasn't found relationship books. He had even looked at Sasuke's laptop history and the only thing he found that was interesting was that Sasuke actually searched himself on the Internet. Naruto had abandoned the idea that Sasuke read the books in order to be the perfect boyfriend, and that was ok. He was naturally amazing.
Sakura had informed him that she was staying at Lee's house now since the hotel would be getting expensive. Apparently, she was getting breakfast in bed every morning. Sasuke had given him paid vacation to basically stay with her and Naruto felt that was wrong in its own way. Sakura berated Naruto on a few other things she felt Rock Lee was better at and Naruto just shook his head. He didn't care too much. It was funny though.
Sasuke was in a meeting and Naruto decided to hang out in Sasuke's office. If the phone rang, which it hardly did, Naruto could just answer it from in here. Naruto looked at some of the achievements Sasuke had been awarded throughout the years that adorned the walls. His boyfriend was pretty remarkable when he thought about it. Naruto had actually searched Sasuke on the Internet and learned he had been born in the United States but obtained dual-citizenship. No one actually knew which nation he'd chosen. Sasuke went to a bunch of fancy schools and graduated early. There wasn't much of anything bad about him. When Naruto had come across Hiruzen in the articles it was written really carefully and delicately. It didn't implicate anyone being in the wrong and it sure as hell didn't mention Sasuke was gay.
Naruto's eyes dropped to the papers on the desks which contained reports and statistics of other companies in competition to Uchiha Corporation. Naruto could figure that they would want to keep an eye of other companies to know who was their biggest threats which it seemed every other company was behind them.
Naruto flipped through the paperwork knowing for a fact Sasuke wouldn't give a damn. Naruto's eyebrows shot up when he saw his former company, pretty far down on the list. He grinned at the fact they were doing so poorly. Serves them right. They'd done nothing but drop in everything for about 5 years and were one of the least profitable businesses on the sheet.
The only word Naruto could come up with to describe the feeling. Justice.
He got fired for something he didn't do and they were going to go under within another 3 years at that rate. He would be surprised if his former boss was stealing company money.
Naruto set the papers back down and stretched his arms back over his head and had a serene look on his face when Sasuke returned.
"Naruto?"
"You have a very comfortable chair bastard."
"Thank you. Now go back to your desk." Sasuke replied.
Nruto scooted along the floor not getting out of the chair and passed Sasuke who gave him a look that reflected his admiration for the blondes bravery. No one jacked his chair. Naruto pushed his old chair back inside the office and Sasuke accepted it and sat down at his desk already feeling the discomfort. Sasuke flipped through his contacts and dialed a number before getting up and shutting the door. He came back and picked the phone up just in time for the person on the other end to answer.
"Hello, this is Sasuke Uchiha. I would like to place an order for a new office chair. I would like it delivered today."
Naruto started passing the time by instant messaging Deidara. They were playing hangman. The elevator doors opened and two pairs of blue eyes raise as two men with dollies and boxes on each.
Both men stopped at Naruto and asked for Sasuke's office and Itachi's office and Naruto directed both men to their requested destinations. Naruto peeked his head in the office and saw Sasuke sign off on the delivery and then get up and shut the door on him.
"Teme..." Naruto muttered. "What do you think they ordered?" Naruto asked Deidara.
"No idea... Whatever it is its company related though. Maybe new computers?" Deidara suggested.
"Why, their computers are brand new..."
"I don't have any ideas then." Deidara admitted.
After ten short minutes the men both exited the offices with empty boxes and dollies. Naruto stood up immediately and saw Sasuke sitting in a new office chair... That had a massager.
"Seriously."
"This feels amazing..." Sasuke sighed happily.
Naruto walked out of the office to see Itachi sliding out a basically brand new chair and Deidara walked over and sat in it before trading it with his.
"They got new chairs and so did we." Deidara said uncaring.
"Yes, but theirs gives massages..."
"No fair, un! I hope they buy new chairs again soon!" Deidara exclaimed with a jealous pout.
Naruto nodded his head and grabbed the chair he had original jacked from Sasuke and pushed it inside Sasuke's office.
"Trade with me." Naruto demanded.
"Why?"
"Cause I bottom and deserve the massages. Now, trade with me."
Sasuke smirked and stood up and wrapped his arms around Naruto's lower back and pulled him close.
"Say please..." Sasuke said with a smile.
"Pleeeeeeeaaaaaasssssssseeeeeeee." Naruto said and gave his puppy eye look.
Sasuke pecked him on the lips and grabbed the back of his old chair and pulled it back before sliding the brand new massage chair to Naruto and sat down in front on his computer once more and starting flipping through various things.
Naruto took the massage chair and wheeled it out victorious and sat down and turned the massager on immediately and relaxed. A few minutes passed before Deidara demanded Naruto trade with him.
They agreed on joint custody of the chair.
Sasuke, for his part, was happy to be back in his old chair. He was used to it and hated breaking in brand new chairs.
Sasuke was currently planning his next move. He didn't mind working under Itachi, but he also wanted to run a company of his own. He just had to choose a company that was failing, but not so far under there was no hope, and present his plan to his family. From there on he'd have to buy out the majority of the company's shares with money from the Uchiha Corporation. Sasuke spun the pen around in his fingers a bit. But since he wasn't married he also had to figure out what to do with Hiruzen. Karin would follow him, but then they'd have to deal with all that custody nonsense again, and depending on where they were, they may give Hiruzen to Karin full custody.
Sasuke dropped the pen and rubbed his eyes. He had focused in on three companies that were headed for closing. Now he just needed to decide what order he would prioritize them in for going after. He only needed one, but a few back-up plans would be nice.
