Gay For You
Hi Guys, I'm finally back with a new chapter after such a long time. I don't know why I took it this long to write this time but I'd like to blame it all on my cell phone. I don't know if it's just me or there are other people like that but I just love reading novels on mobile phone. I've started liking to read that way so much that i prefer it to printed novels. So, see, there's a huge problem there and the reason I'm talking about this right now is that due to mobile phone I've started using laptop even less so.. that means.. that's also the reason it took me this long to actually write the new chapter even though I didn't have writer's block. Well, there, I said it.
Now here's the new chapter for you. Since i've been reading a lot of novels it's kinda lovey dovey.. Still, enjoy and do comment on what you think about it. ;-)
Disclaimer: I only own the pictures of anime characters which I have drawn and hung on my wall, nothing else.
Chapter 11:
"So, here you go." I said handling Itachi the folder containing the contract. Itachi merely raised an eyebrow in question and took the folder and started reading the contract. When he reached the second page of the contract he frowned and looked at me with confused expression.
"What? Is there any problem with the contract?" I scowled.
"No, the contract is fine. It's just, I am confused about this one clause." Itachi said motioning me to come to him. I went to his side and leaned in to look at the questionable clause.
"Which one?" I turned towards Itachi and almost collided with his face which was very close to mine.. so close that we were almost kissing. Just when I was thinking about that Itachi leaned the extra inch and gave me a peck and almost immediately pulled me on his lap closing his hands around my waist before I could back off.
"I am confused with the second last clause, Naru-chan." Itachi said resting his chin on my shoulder and breathing on my neck making me acutely aware of our position and every single place we were touching. It took all of my will to not turn around and kiss him senseless but rather focus on what he was saying. Taking a long breath I tried to ignore how Itachi was nipping my neck and tried to focus on the second last clause of the contract. Hmm.. It was just about Sasuke being my photographer. What was so confusing about that?
"What's so confusing here Itachi?" I said pushing Itachi's head from my shoulder and turning around to face him. "It just says that Sasuke will be the photographer." Itachi removed one hand from his waist to cup my face.
"That's exactly the confusing thing Naru-chan." Itachi said tracing my bottom lip with his thumb making me shiver and lean more into his touch. "Why are you giving Sasuke chance to enjoy the free show when you want to punish him?" Itachi then pulled me flush against him and kissed me. Unable to control I moaned into the kiss and started returning it in earnest. After few minutes or maybe only seconds we broke up gasping for breath and I replied panting:
"But Tachi, I'm using seduction to punish him so I thought this would be to perfect way to seduce-" I was cut off mid-sentence when suddenly eyes flaring red Itachi pulled me and kissed me fiercely, splitting my lip in the process. When he finally broke the kiss I cupped his face with my both hands and said soothingly:
"You know I don't like him, Tachi. I'm just trying to punish him by breaking his heart. Even though I should be punishing you the same way too, I can't do that because I love you too much already." Listening my words Itachi's expression softened and he looked at me miserably.
"I'm so sorry Naru-chan. I shouldn't have done that to you. I'm really ashamed at myself. Whatever punishment you have planned for me I will gladly accept it. Just promise me that you won't leave me, you will be with me-" Itachi hesitated at the last word and left the "forever" unspoken which was nevertheless understood by both of us. He looked so vulnerable at that time that the thought of leaving him didn't even cross my mind. I pulled him into a hug and started stroking his midnight locks. We were so engrossed with ourselves that we didn't even realize that somebody else was watching us the whole time. Only when Shikamaru coughed that we realized our surroundings and parted. Giving one last peck I got up from Itachi's lap and went towards my office next door nodding at Shikamaru who shook his head at me indicating his exasperation and went towards Itachi's desk. I just grimaced at him and went and flopped on my chair. After a few minutes Shikamaru came back and flopped on his chair and turned towards me.
"Here you go, Mr. Hopelessly-in-Love. Your equally hopeless partner has signed the contract." Shikamaru threw the contract on my desk and smirked at me. "You know Naru-chan, even though it's troublesome I just can't wait to get home today and fill Kiba in with all the juicy details." I gave him the Uchiha death glare which I had copied from Sasuke but the bastard waved it off by laughing. Oh God! I was so doomed. That bastard Kiba knowing means he's going to rub it in my face at every single opportunity. Why did I have to be so weak against Itachi? Why couldn't I control my emotions? And now I have to win heart of this Suna guy too. Who knows if he's even more of an ass than Sasuke bastard and Baka-tachi? Either way I am doomed so I guess there's nothing to worry about. I will do whatever I damn please. Yeah, that's more like my style. Not giving shit at all. I nodded to myself and turned towards Shikamaru.
"Hey, Shika, when do you think this Suna guy will be coming?" Shikamaru turned away from whatever he was typing and gave me another smirk. What was with this guy today? Other days he slept the whole day and barely even grunted a response when somebody addressed him, but today he wasn't even sleeping and smirking as if things were even more interesting than sleep. What exactly was going on? I frowned at him suspiciously. With a totally unusual cheer on his face Shikamaru replied:
"Actually Naruto, you're lucky that I interrupted you earlier and you're even luckier that Itachi immediately agreed to the contract because had you guys not been interrupted by me then you guys would have been interrupted by the Suna President." Shikamaru said grinning. "He's actually in a meeting with Itachi right now."
"What!" I bolted upright from the chair. "Oh God! Did you just say that the Suna dude is here?"
"Ssshh.." Shikamaru indicated me to be silent. "They're in a meeting next door. Even though the door is closed, they'll hear you if you yell so loudly. And yeah, he's here. So, stop getting shocked and start thinking about what you're going to do to persuade the guy." Shikamru said in a reprimanding tone. Not knowing what to do, I started frantically pacing around the room. Suddenly I wanted to know what the guy looked like so I stopped pacing and went to Shikamaru.
"Hey, Shika, I want to see the guy so give me something or anything that needs to be delivered to Itachi so that I can go in there." I asked him desperately.
"What the hell Naruto? I just can't do that. It's rude to interrupt the meeting just like that. Furthermore Itachi himself has forbidden me to enter the room unless called." Shikamaru hissed.
"But I want to see him." I whined. "How am I supposed to persuade him if I don't even know how he looks?" Shikamaru just glared at me indicating that he wasn't going to relent when the phone at Shikamaru's desk started ringing. Once more shooting a warning glare at me Shikamaru picked up the phone.
"Hello? Yeah. Okay. Just a moment." Then he hung up.
"Who was that?" I asked Shikamaru hoping that it was Itachi. Shikamaru sighed and handed me a brown colored file.
"Here, Itachi has requested this file. Just go and give it to him. And don't linger too longer." Perfect.
"Thank you, Shikamaru." I hugged him and took the file. Slowly I opened the door connecting our and Itachi's office and entered the room. Whoever the guy was, he had a deep red hair and currently was engrossed in conversation with Itachi. They didn't even notice when I entered the room. Discretely I went towards Itachi and handed him the file. Itachi took the file and thanked me. I smiled back at him and was about to turn to see our guest's face when I heard my name spoken in a soft, uncertain voice. It was more like a question. When I turned towards the source of the voice I was shocked with surprise.
"Gaara?" I managed to choke out. I was so happy to see him after such a long time that I was feeling difficult to even form the words. I went to him and pulled him into a hug which Gaara returned fiercely. After a minute or so we pulled apart.
"How have you been Gaara?" I managed to say without crying. "I missed you a lot when you were gone, you know. Only because they said that you were taken by you family that I didn't chase after you. I was so lonely." Gaara looked equally miserable as me.
"I'm so sorry, Naruto. I told my family that I wanted to say goodbye to you before we left but my father didn't listen and dragged me away. Finally after I was able to run away I came in search of you but they said that you had gone to live with your grandmother. After that I couldn't find you. I had given up all my hope Naruto. I'm so glad that I finally met you." Gaara said clasping my hand.
"Ahem, Ahem." Itachi interrupted us. When we both turned towards him he asked in a seemingly polite but borderline icy tone. "So, can somebody explain me what's going on?" Something akin to jealousy flashed in his eyes which made me smile despite the mood I was earlier in.
"Ah! Itachi, meet Gaara, my childhood best friend. We lived in the same orphanage when we were younger." The outright hostile look Itachi was giving Gaara softened. "And, Gaara, meet Itachi my boss and my friend." I purposely added the word "friend" just to rattle Itachi and winked at him when he looked disappointed. Not yet Ita-chan. You need to first be punished for your mistake then you need to convince me and then finally propose me before I call you my boyfriend. So, brace yourself for some hard work if you want me.
"I guess I disturbed your meeting for which I profoundly apologize. Then I will leave you guys at it. Please continue." I made to get out of the room but Itachi stopped me.
"Wait Naruto. We were actually done with the meeting and I was about to take him to meet with you and Shikamaru. Wait a moment. I'll call Shikamaru and after I have introduced him to Gaara you two can catch up with each other." Itachi dialed Shikamaru's extension and called him into the room. A moment later Shikamaru appeared in the doorway and Itachi beckoned him into the room.
"Mr. Sabaku, this is Mr. Nara Shikamaru, my secretary and Naruto here is his assistant as well as an intern in our organization." Itachi formally introduced us to Gaara. "Shikamaru, as you already know, Mr. Sabaku Gaara is the current CEO of Suna Industries and he also happens to be childhood friend of Naruto here."
"It's pleasure to meet you, Mr. Sabaku." Shikamaru said while shaking Gaara's hand.
"The pleasure is mine, Mr. Nara," replied Gaara, politely.
After the introductions were complete and the meeting finally concluded I took Gaara to the VIP waiting room.
"Hmm..", said Gaara ponderously after I explained the situation I was currently in. "So, the actual person I need to beat up in this whole mess is that Sasuke-bastard.. But, Naru-chan.." He looked up at me from his position at the couch, a little hesitant, "Don't you think we should punch this boss of yours too? All you have to do is just say it and I'll refuse to sign the contract with AL." Gaara looked more than ready to not only to tell Itachi why this contract was a bad idea but also to give Itachi a piece of his mind. It made me smile and shake my head.
"Don't worry Gaa-chan, Itachi is not that bad." I said smiling fondly at the memory of one hour ago, how vulnerable Itachi looked when he expressed his fear of losing me. "Yeah, I agree that he needs to be punished and have actually thought a perfect plan to torture him, but not right now. Right now I need you to sign that contract otherwise I will have to play maid every weekend." I shuddered not wanting to think what would happen if I actually had to do that.
"If you say so Naru-chan. It's not like it's a great loss to me either because had I not met you I would have signed the contract anyway because Itachi is a good lawyer." Gaara shrugged.
"Yeah, he is good." I agreed. I was feeling so proud of my Itachi. Gaara must have noticed for he frowned at me. He was about to speak something but thought better of it and started thinking again with a deep frown forming on his forehead. I decided to let him take his time. Gaa-chan was like that even during his childhood. Until and unless he sorted out everything in his mind, he didn't even say single word about whatever he was thinking or planning. Knowing that he would tell me everything after sometime I left him at it and went to get us some drinks from the vending machine. When I returned back to the couch Gaara seemed ready to tell me whatever he had been thinking. I handed him his Sprite and sat on the couch beside him sipping my coke. Gaara then turned towards me.
"Naru-chan, I've decided that I'm transferring to your school for the final year of my high school." Gaara held my gaze trying to gauge my expression but his expression relaxed almost immediately because I was so happy that I immediately pulled him to me and hugged him.
"That's so great, Gaara!" I said practically vibrating with happiness. "I always dreamed of this, you know, when we were in orphanage. That we would grow up together and attend same school and college. I just can't wait to show you off to my friends. You have already met Shikamaru, wait till I introduce to dog breath, Sakura-chan, and others. Especially Sasuke. Hah! He'll be so jealous.." I knew I was babbling. But I couldn't seem to stop myself. I was so happy. Finally, finally, my childhood dream was going to be true.
"So, Gaa-chan, how many days till you start attending classes? And where will you stay? You can stay with me you know, I have a spare bedroom in my apartment and we could catch up with all those years we have missed. And I will introduce you to Baa-chan and Ero-sennin." I said giddily. Gaara was smiling at me. I must have been a mess with tears and snot running down my face but I didn't care. Gaara leaned towards me and ruffled my hair affectionately.
"I'd love to stay with you, Naru-chan." Gaara took my hands and squeezed them gently. "And I'd love to meet all your friends, even that Sasuke-bastard. But now I have to go so that I can arrange it with my school and prepare the transfer documents as soon as possible." I nodded and Gaara pulled me into a hug one more time and murmured a soft "I really missed you Naru-chan" before he left. I sat there for how long I didn't know, smiling at myself, until Itachi came and broke me from my daze. Beautiful long fingers stroked my cheek before lowering to my chin and nudged my face upward to look at his beautiful face. When I looked up I saw Itachi kneeling in front of me with a concerned look on his face. Shaking myself mentally I smiled at Itachi then pulled him up and made him sit on the couch. I shifter closer to him and Itachi pulled me into a kiss. The kiss was sweet but hot with a hint of possessiveness, tasting like wine and something different that was purely Itachi. I liked that possessiveness and that unique flavor that was Itachi. After a moment I broke the kiss and told Itachi everything that had happened. Itachi looked a little bit jealous when I mentioned that Gaara would be staying with me but didn't actually voice his concern. Once again Itachi kissed me and this time the possessiveness was even more evident in the kiss than before and I loved it even better.
