Okay, so here's the thing. I got over excited at the minute I stopped I realized that I just had to stop it there. Ooh I am so gonna get it once you guys finish reading this particular chappie. So first of all, I AM SO SORRY! You'll get it when you read the final line. But before that, I'm still gonna respond to some comments here. Tehee. Oh, and I'm terribly sorry about the typos. Sometimes I get over excited and forgot to re-read and then poof it there for everyone to read.
SolitaryLightning: Stop reading my mind! The story won't get interesting then...T^T (hihi, just joking but I won't grant your wish that soon ;D)
Itooshii Koneko: I forgot to put OOCness warning again! Thank you for reminding me. I've been meaning to put that one on but I kept wanting to be fast n not so furious. xD
Xiah-sensei: I was laughing when I wrote that scene but super sad when I read it again. Does that make me weird? :
Hitomi's Shimobi: Ahh, I have to disappoint you on that particular expectation. I disappoint even myself! But no worries! I'm not giving up! (you'll get what i mean by the end of this chapter)
everyone: THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU ALL! xDDD (I'm in a crazy mood at the moment. Sugar overdose it seems)
Disclaimer: He is sooo not yours! Sasuke: Get the memo lady, he was created with ME by his side, by Kishimoto Masashi.
Warning: MxM/ OOCness (I think every chapter has this)/ yaoi is upcoming! Woot!
"Hello mother," Sasuke said to the receiver of the antique phone.
"Sasuke, I've been waiting for your call sweetheart," Mikoto replied fondly. "How are you and Naruto dear?" Mikoto asked and she could feel he son hesitate. Something is definitely wrong, she thought. "Is there something wrong with the mansion dear?" She heard Sasuke's silent gulp.
"Um, there was a storm yesterday night," Sasuke said. Only to his mother would he do that, not that he knows why but she intimidates him worse than his father does. And yet he found himself able to smile at his mother.
"Are you two alright? The mansion is built to be able to withstand storms. You should know that," Mikoto said. She knew her baby boy was still hiding something. "Is Naruto alright?" Another pause filled with hesitation. Mikoto was getting annoyed.
"He's sick," Sasuke finally said. Sasuke knew his mother quite well, if course being her son and everything, and he knew a different kind of storm was headed his way from how cold he felt from his mother's aura. Don't ask how radio waves could transmit that. It's one of the mysteries of science that human cannot comprehend. On the lighter note, even Sasuke doesn't know the answer to the mystery.
"Uchiha Sasuke," Sasuke flinched at the tone," you go right to him and apologize this instant!"
"Why should I? He was the one who decided to sleep in the rain," Sasuke said. Ah crap.
"What. Did. You. Say?" Mikoto was in her full scolding mode now. If Sasuke was right in front of her he would be looking down to the floor at all times. Uh, he was doing it. Sasuke quickly looked up.
"I-well he-I mean-uh," Sasuke was rendered speechless by his mother.
"Uchiha Sasuke, I demand that you tell me what happened there this instant," Mikoto used her authority voice with Sasuke. Sasuke was so dead.
So Sasuke told her what happened excluding his part in it. He made it sound like it was Naruto's fault solely. Jerk. But Mikoto knew better. Well, Sasuke wasn't technically lying but Mikoto somehow knew that Sasuke was the root of all that happened. As her son talked the crease on her forehead grew to a level than even made Fugaku evade the room his wife was in.
Never underestimate a woman's fury, Fugaku chuckled to himself at the thought of whoever it was that she was angry at on the phone. Somehow, he felt sorry for the broad…not knowing that it was his own son. Hehehe…
"Sasuke, I know you're not telling me everything and I won't ask you too. Right now, go and apologize to Naruto-kun for whatever it is that you did," Mikoto said firmly.
"But-"
"You will listen to me Uchiha Sasuke or you will regret it terribly once you get home," she paused as if thinking. "Or maybe I'll just go there,"
"No. I'll do it. There's no need for you to come. I can handle things fine," Sasuke said robotically. Mikoto smiled. That meant she won. Just like always.
"Good. I'll see you when you return home sweetheart. Say hi to Naruto-kun for me," and Mikoto hung up on him.
And Sasuke sighed.
Somewhere at the edge of Whirlpool country, in a small cabin right beside the seashore, a small group comprising of six males and two females sat around a small dining table. The discussion seemed intense but one of the two ladies was smiling brightly.
"Woman, what amuses you now? You are supposed to take things seriously," one of the males frowned at the woman's direction. The woman kept her smile on while retorting.
"Why are you so grumpy? I have a big role tomorrow and it involves my ex. I'm just feeling good that I can take my revenge now," she said casually flipping her hair.
"Tch, it's not a chance for you to exact revenge. It's a mission above all else," scoffed the other woman. She then turned to their supposed right hand man. "I don't get why I can't do it? I'm much more pretty and attractive than her," she said jamming her thumb at the smiling lady. Said lady frowned but before she could say any insults the right hand person spoke.
"It's because she had past interaction with the target and she has better chance than you do. Besides, we need to hurry. The Rock country is already on the move and they want us to cause as much havoc as possible between the two sides before next year. It's better if the havoc begins from within. Small scuffles will turn big if left unattended and we must make sure that the problem is left unattended after we start it," he explained while pushing his spectacle on the bridge of his nose. The annoyed woman scoffed once more.
"Fine, if she can make us move faster, then I guess it can't be helped. Make sure you do it quick Karin," she said before abruptly leaving the table. The red-head woman pulled out her set of glasses before wearing them and smirking ever broadly.
"I sure will."
"You know Sasuke-kun, instead of looking for medicine you should've looked for a doctor. They know what to do better than you do," Sai said expressionless but tone laced with amusement. He was changing the towel on Naruto's forehead and criticizing Sasuke who was conveniently lying beside Naruto. Said person scowled like he always do but not looking at Sai.
"And thanks to you Naruto-kun isn't getting better and it has been four days," Sai decided to talk some more since the other person was feigning mute. "And you too. When exactly do you plan to get better? We sail back home in three days."
"Shut up," Sasuke hissed and turned over facing away from Sai.
"Good thing I'm such a considerate person," Kakashi appeared at the doorway with his mask and eye patch all in place and his eye an inverted 'u'. A very, very slow groan came from the bed, not that anyone heard it and it definitely wasn't the sleeping Naruto. Sai's attention was immediately changed to his team leader instead.
"You brought a doctor sensei?" he asked. Kakashi's invisible smile was a definite answer. Instead of answering audibly he moved aside from the doorway instead. Before anyone entered the room a very strong fragrance filled the room and Sasuke's eyes widened. He turned to Kakashi.
"You did not-"
"Sasuke-kuuuuuuuuuuuuuun!" A woman with a very red hair dramatically entered the room and bounded towards the bed. This time the groan was audible and it was from 2 people instead.
"What's going on?" Naruto asked in voice heavy with sleep and ill.
"Oh, you must be his wife. I'm a doctor," her mood changed so fast from bubbly to stony when she noticed Naruto awake. Sasuke decided to ignore every living soul the room and concentrated on trying to sleep his way out of the mess.
"Doctor Karin had a small clinic here so I decided to ask her to come take a look," Kakashi explained and the next bit was directed to Sasuke. "And since you know her already she agreed to come the moment I mentioned it," voice tone was slightly icy.
"Not a chance. Send her away now Kakashi," Sasuke glared at his mentor. Karin made a sad puppy face the moment the last word left Sasuke's mouth and had tears rimming her eyes but Sasuke wasn't looking at her so it didn't have much of an effect. Not that it would affect Sasuke in any way even if he did look but Naruto was looking.
"Don't be such a jackass teme. Isn't it good Kakashi sensei got a friend to help?" Naruto said weakly.
"She is no friend of mine and I don't want to see her," Sasuke's tone was stony.
"You know her, that makes you friends," Naruto frowned.
"I don't like her,"
"That's so mean Sasuke-kun. We were together once and now you're going to act as if I never existed? That's really mean," Karin sobbed once but inside she was reeling at the shocked expression Naruto was sporting.
"You were the one who think we were together. I didn't want to have anything to do with you," Sasuke's Glare of Doom was on her now. She trembled slightly and backed once step. Now Sasuke was reeling. He was assured that there were still people who were afraid of his glare.
"You dated her before?" Naruto asked.
"None of your business dobe," Sasuke scoffed.
"Hell yes it is," Naruto's turn to glare. Mind you, Sasuke had to try not to flinch. A healthy Naruto was harmless but a sick Naruto was a force to be reckoned with. Even Sai backed away from the bed when he felt the icy aura emanating from the blond. "We are married," Naruto added sitting up straight.
"So what? Being married doesn't imply we share everything with each other," Sasuke retorted glaring back and sitting up as well.
"Of course it does! Your parents and my parents do that. What makes us any different?"
"The fact that I did not want this marriage in the first place!"
Silence followed Sasuke's outburst. Kakashi, Sai even Karin stood transfixed and the watched the exchange between the two. Naruto had an expression of utter betrayal and grief while Sasuke was huffing out his anger.
"I never asked for this marriage and I never even wanted to get married at this age. Not to mention being married to you, a man. That's a big blow to my pride," Sasuke panted his anger.
"Then why did you marry him? You had me!" Karin burst out.
"Shut up! I never wanted any relationship with anyone. They were just flings! I never even meant to be serious with anyone I dated. Ever! I dated a lot the past two years just to make my parents rethink about this stupid marriage in the first place. That was it."
Naruto was silent while Sasuke spoke but after he was done Naruto slipped off the bed and went straight to the wardrobe and opened the topmost drawer. He took out a long slender black box and opened it. Inside was a small dagger encased in a sheath encrusted with rubies and sapphires and made from the finest leather. The handle was designed in the shaped of a phoenix roaring to attack. Naruto took the dagger out of its box and slowly walked back to the bed stopping only when he reached the side.
"You bastard."
Are you gaping? Say you are gaping in shock. SAY IT! XDDDDD
Sadly, this is the end of part 1. Are you gaping again? Are you in shock again? HAHAHAAHAAA! I'm evil, yes. I love making cliff-hangers (but not reading them coz everybody hates that) and for the love of me I did it for the end of part 1! xDDDDD
I hope some of you are saying "Say it isn't so!" coz that would make my day, and then make reviews saying the same thing and asking for more of this story. I know I said 2 chapters before part 1 ends but like I said waaaaay above there, when I get too excited and don't plan ahead miracles happen and in this case I ended part 1 early. I'm mean I know.
Good part is! Part 2 will be up! Not soon, another sad thing. Maybe the fastest I could go is 2 weeks from now (then again I didn't wait a week for this one). Worst possibility is, a month from now. foresee part 2 to be longer than part 1 and will have what you want devilstwin6969.
So, RnR please! And till I post again! Love chu!
