Hello everyone,
I am happy to announce that this story is almost done and I will be happy to let you know that there will be a sequel to it. Just not right away. :(
Thanks for all the reviews everyone. Oh and just to let my readers who follow this story know that the sequel isn't going to be as pleasant as this one is.
Enjoy the chapter.
It was summer break and the terms and conditions of Naruto and Sasuke's relationship still stood. They still had to make their way to Fugaku's house for at least a week. What they didn't expect was for Itachi to jump in the car with them to go.
"Itachi, what are you doing here?" Sasuke asked bewildered.
"As much as I haven't forgiven father at the moment I still want to spend time with the little ones and give him a chance to redeem himself." Itachi said reading his book.
"THAT'S THE SPIRIT, ITACHI!" Naruto said in an excited loud manner that was so sudden it made them almost jump out their seats.
"Damn it Naruto," Sasuke said lightly swatting Naruto.
Naruto just chuckled it off not really finding it bothersome at all.
"Thank you Naruto." Itachi said softly.
Itachi really admired how Naruto took everything. He didn't really expect him to be so hell bent on caring about the rules but Naruto hasn't broken any since he's been back. Naruto really cares about Sasuke to the point he even avoids confrontation on the streets. Another thing was that Naruto got through to their father and made him ask for forgiveness which Itachi personally never thought was going to happen in lifetimes.
"What for?" Naruto questioned as his head tilted back.
"For everything you have done for us since we met you." Itachi said in a sincere tone that Sasuke has never heard before.
"We're all going to be family, right?" Naruto said looking into the mirror to see Itachi.
"Yeah, I am mostly definitely happy about that." Itachi said moving back in his seat.
It was quiet for a while before a few thoughts crossed Naruto's mind.
"On second thought, isn't it kind of weird to say we're family when I'm dating your brother and our parents are getting married?" Naruto asked.
The thought never crossed the Uchiha's minds because it was never a thought but now that they think about it, it is kind of weird.
"Yeah, now that you mention it. It is weird." Sasuke said shaking his head not being able to hide the smile that came on his face.
"I agree," Itachi said.
"I guess we're going to be a weird ass family then." Naruto said with a chuckle that warmed Sasuke's heart.
"I guess so," Sasuke said.
"But at least our parents accept the relationship." Itachi remarked.
"Yeah, after how many months?" Sasuke questioned.
"True," Itachi said.
They were getting to Fugaku's faster than they thought they would be and it didn't really bother them. Well it didn't bother Naruto or Sasuke but Itachi was nervous and wouldn't stop fidgeting in the back seat driving Naruto crazy.
"Calm down Itachi," Sasuke said noticing it.
"Yeah there's no need to be so nervous." Naruto said.
"I haven't seen him since the day he dropped you off." Itachi said.
"I know, but you need to calm down." Sasuke said in a comforting tone.
"I'm trying," Itachi said in a rough voice.
The sound made Naruto pull over to the side of the road and turn to look at Itachi. Itachi was sweating proving how nervous he actually was. Naruto smiled at Itachi then smacked him in the face.
"Get ahold of yourself. You won't be alone there so you have nothing to worry about." Naruto said with a smile on his face.
The brothers weren't really shocked by the slap but it still wasn't expected. Naruto had a good control over his nervous ticks from living with Kurama for so long.
"I'm fine now, thanks." Itachi said not really wanting to get slapped again.
"Good, we should get moving again." Naruto said turning in his seat and starting the car again.
The rest of the drive was pretty quiet seeing as Naruto was the only one awake because the brothers fell asleep. Naruto didn't mind because he liked the peace once in a while. He liked to be in his own thoughts and right now they were everywhere. He wanted to know where his relationship with everyone stood but didn't want to ask which was strange seeing as he is usually very open to talking to others.
"Naruto," Sasuke whispered.
"Hmm..." Naruto hummed.
"When will we be there?" Sasuke asked.
"Soon, we should be there in about five minutes." Naruto said.
"Good, because I want to get out of the damn car and stretch my legs." Sasuke said stretching his body.
Naruto tried not to look because he knew the condition of being with Sasuke. But some of the conditions were harder to follow than most and one was because he was constantly having sexual dreams of Sasuke. Sasuke of course didn't know that and nor was Naruto going to tell him that but it was beginning to get harder for him to sleep next to the raven.
"We're here," Naruto said making Itachi wake up too.
Everyone got out the car feeling pretty uncomfortable. Well the brothers felt uncomfortable, Naruto didn't feel a thing. Kana saw them and ran out the house straight to Naruto while the twins ran to one of their brothers. Daichi ran to Sasuke and Akari ran to Itachi. Itachi got really close to his little sisters but Daichi was really close to Sasuke. They were both rather stoic in Naruto's eyes. It was quite cute.
"Welcome boys," Fugaku said coming out the house with Akane his wife.
"Hey Fugaku, Akane," Naruto said with a smile.
"Hello father, Akane," Sasuke said walking forward with Daichi attached to him.
"Hello," was all Itachi was willing to say.
"Ita, I got to show you something." Kana said pulling him the rest of the way to the house passing Fugaku and Akane up.
"She has been excited about him coming over since you boys called and said he was with." Fugaku said with a smile.
"I want to go to the park." Daichi said looking at Naruto.
Sasuke didn't know how he felt about them demanding things of his boyfriend but he did find it amusing.
"Okay," Naruto said grabbing Daichi and Akari leaving Sasuke with Fugaku and Akane.
"You know Kana still wants him to be her husband." Fugaku said with a chuckle.
"That will never happen, he is mine." Sasuke said aggressively with a glare.
"A bit touchy, are you son?" Fugaku said chuckling.
"No," Sasuke said.
Kana came back running outside looking around.
"Where is Naruto?" Kana asked and looked behind Sasuke.
"At the park with your siblings." Akane said.
"I wanted to show him what I did." Kana said running toward the park.
It was just down the street so Fugaku wasn't worried. She didn't have to cross no streets and he was standing outside to watch her go.
"Don't go without me." Sasuke said chasing after her not wanting Kana to be alone with Naruto.
"Someone's jealous," Akane said to Fugaku with a smile as she watched Kana being chased by Sasuke.
"He is always like that with Naruto even toward me and Naruto's sister." Itachi said coming behind them to see Sasuke dragging his little sister from Naruto's arms and the others laughing.
"Little brother, you shouldn't pull her by her hair." Itachi said walking toward them.
Sasuke and Kana started to fight but since Sasuke wasn't trying to hurt his little sister he ended up just pulling at her hair. Itachi on the other hand was trying to stop them from fighting. Naruto just sat down laughing with the twins.
"Sasuke, stop fighting with your sister." Naruto said after he stopped laughing.
It amused everyone how Sasuke stopped immediately and walked by Naruto again.
"Not nice brother," Kana whined rubbing her head and went to Itachi.
"Only when it comes to things he claims are his." Itachi said soothing his sister.
"Naruto, how did you do that? Do you have magical powers?" Daichi asked excitedly.
"I read in a book that a demon can control people. Are you a demon?" Akari asked.
"HE IS NOT A DEMON! He is an angel." Kana screamed at her siblings running up to Naruto hugging him.
Itachi couldn't stop the chuckles that came out his mouth when he heard that.
"I would say he is half and half. But no he didn't control Sasuke with powers." Itachi said.
"But he stopped right away." Daichi concluded.
"That's because Naruto is the only person he listens to." Itachi said pulling his younger siblings along leaving a stunned Sasuke and a laughing Naruto.
Sasuke smacked Naruto in the back of the head. "Why are you laughing?" Sasuke said with a smirk.
"That was unnecessary, and you're the one that was jealous of your little sister." Naruto said with a smirk.
"We will never speak about that again." Sasuke said grabbing Naruto by his shirt pulling him to him.
Naruto gave him a peck on the nose and pulled away with a smile.
"Fine," Naruto said and started pulling Sasuke back toward the house.
"I'm never going to live this down, am I?" Sasuke asked.
"Nope, not ever especially with Itachi seeing it." Naruto said.
"Everyone actually saw it." Naruto said a few moments later. "So your mother and my dad are going to hear about it." Naruto said laughing at the face of horror on Sasuke's face.
"Just don't tell our friends, understand?" Sasuke threatened.
"Yeah, yeah," Naruto said waving off his hand.
"I mean it Naruto." Sasuke said following Naruto inside the house.
"I know, Kana, what did you want to show me?" Naruto asked letting Sasuke's hand go gently but Sasuke still followed.
"Daddy let me design my room." Kana said in an excited tone.
The room was nicely designed. It was strange to see a bunch of lines all over the place but Naruto thought it looked like a maze. In the end Naruto found out it was a maze that led from the window to the door of the closet, to the bed, to her laptop area, to the fish tank, and to exit her room.
"That is really awesome. So it leads to all the places you go to in your room." Naruto said amazed that an eleven year old thought of it.
"I want to be a painter when I'm older." Kana said. "But I want to be a painter for houses." Kana said with a smile.
"That's nice," Naruto said with a smile.
"I was so excited when my father told me you guys were coming since I finally get to show you." Kana said blushing.
"When I was your age I helped design my house that I live at now. Well it took quite a while though." Naruto said.
"Really? That's so cool." Kana said.
"So you're going to be an interior designer on houses. That's neat; I basically am going to design houses." Naruto said.
"We match with our jobs." Kana said excited.
"Yup," Naruto said.
"That means you're meant to be with me." Kana said.
Sasuke was utterly frustrated and Naruto just laughed loving his jealous boyfriend.
"That won't happen; I want to be with Sasuke. He is one of the only people I ever found myself wanting to be with." Naruto said with a soft chuckle.
"So you really love my brother?" Kana said pouting.
Naruto and Sasuke both blushed but Naruto regained his composure right away.
"Yes, I do love him." Naruto said.
Sasuke was shocked that his little sister got Naruto to admit how he felt about him. So shocked by the words of Naruto saying he loved him that he didn't even realize that he was tearing up.
"Sasuke, are you okay?" Kana asked staring at him with worried eyes.
Naruto turned around and blushed red like a tomato.
"What did you just say?" Sasuke asked.
"I will leave you two alone really quickly." Kana said running out the room just to grab Itachi so they could listen by the door.
"I... I love you." Naruto said.
"Say it again..." Sasuke said walking toward Naruto.
"… I lo-ve you..." Naruto whispered but he stuttered.
"Again," Sasuke insisted as he was standing face to face with the guy he was in love with.
"I love you." Naruto said looking down.
"Look at me and say it." Sasuke demanded.
Naruto slowly looked up and Sasuke was shocked by the intensity in his eyes.
"I love you." Naruto said strongly.
"Finally you dumb bastard. I love you." Sasuke said pulling Naruto to kiss him.
"Aww... that is so sweet." Itachi and Kana both said through the door.
"…" Naruto and Sasuke both just looked at the door and walked to it opening it to find the two eavesdropping.
"Hello," they both said casually lifting their hands behind their heads nervously.
"I thought you were giving us privacy?" Naruto asked looking at Kana.
Kana just blushed and hid behind Itachi who was having a stare down okay more like glare down with Sasuke who was extremely pissed to have his moment messed up from his siblings.
"Little brother?" Itachi asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Big brother?" Sasuke mimicked.
Naruto just watched the two before he knocked Itachi to the ground screaming dog pile completely freaking Itachi out being on the floor. Sasuke found it amusing until he got pulled into the pile with them and his twin siblings came running down the hallway.
"Oh no," Sasuke whispered seeing the kids hands dirty.
Sasuke and Itachi noticed one thing about his dad since they met the new family he made. He wasn't strict at all with them like he was with them. It kind of made them feel bad but they never said anything in fear for their siblings. There dad wasn't easy to get along with when he was like that.
"Kids lunch time," Akane screamed from down the hall.
When they all got off each other everyone ran to the table well not Itachi because he just walked. By the time he got over there Akane was waiting for him in the doorway.
"Can I talk to you for a little bit?" Akane asked.
"Sure," Itachi said shrugging his shoulders.
"I'm sorry that I tore your family up with your father. It's not like I wanted what happened to happen." Akane said.
"It's okay; if it wasn't you it would have been someone else because he wasn't happy with my mother. My mother and he were meant for different people and if you're happy with him it's because he learned from his mistakes with us on how to be a better father and husband." Itachi said.
"Do you think we can at least be friends?" Akane asked holding out her hand.
"Sure," Itachi said shaking her hand.
"I'm glad," Akane said with a smile and pulled Itachi back to the kitchen table.
Itachi let himself be pulled not really minding the contact at the moment. The day was jam packed with a bunch of wild activities. Sasuke and Itachi were shocked to see their smile and laugh so much.
"I hope you guys come around soon." Fugaku said as he walked them to their car.
"Yeah maybe next weekend we can stay the night." Naruto said.
"Yeah and Naruto can sleep in my room." Kana screamed.
"NO!" All three men screamed at the same time.
Naruto couldn't help but laugh. These three are a lot alike and don't even know it.
"I will be in the car while you three talk." Naruto said saying goodbye to everyone else.
Naruto didn't want to interfere with their talk because he knew it needed to happen.
"Why didn't you just leave mom if you weren't happy?" Itachi asked.
"I didn't want to leave you boys. It just came too hard to be around her knowing she wasn't happy and neither was I. We couldn't even stop arguing and that was when you found out I was cheating. She found out too saying she didn't want you around your siblings. I am sorry that I hid a lot from you boys and I'm sorry that me and your mom couldn't be happy with each other. But I'm glad she is happy with who she's with now. I am also happy to be able to talk to you again." Fugaku said looking directly at Itachi saying the ending.
"I can't forgive you for the pain you caused for me but I can learn to get past it until I can forgive you." Itachi said giving his dad a hug for the first time since he was younger.
"I think I have a different reason to be mad but I think we can get past everything and move on to have a better future with all of us as one big dysfunctional family." Sasuke said.
"I'm glad," Fugaku said hugging Sasuke too.
"We should get going now." Itachi said looking at Naruto who was currently juggling in the car.
"How is he doing that?" Fugaku asked.
"We don't even know he is a guy of many talents." Sasuke said with a smile on his face heading to the car.
"Love you boys be safe on the drive home." Fugaku said and walked into the house.
"Man this house is fun when you're not dealing with extra stress, right?" Naruto said smiling at the brothers.
"Yeah," Itachi said with a smile.
"Next time maybe you two can come by, by yourself." Naruto said with a smile.
"Why?" Sasuke asked.
"Because I can't be around all the time when it comes to your dad. I think it would be best if you guys gained a relationship with your dad not with me around." Naruto said.
"I get it. You want us to get used to our dad again." Itachi said.
"Yeah," Naruto said with a smile.
"Okay," Sasuke said and both of the brothers fell asleep again on the drive home while Naruto drove.
They got home faster this time than getting to their dad's house.
"We're here you guys." Naruto said waking them up.
"Thank god because it is uncomfortable sleeping in the car." Itachi said walking to the door.
Naruto just smiled at him carrying Sasuke because he wouldn't wake up.
"Wake up silly." Naruto said as he got to their area staring down at him.
Sasuke didn't wake up and Naruto wasn't tired so he went to his roof area and sat down. It was a nice breeze out and the stars were out so he decided to hang out for a while thinking.
"Naruto?" Sasuke questioned looking around for his boyfriend until he spotted the closet door open.
Sasuke got up and walked to the entrance to the roof seeing his boyfriend sitting there.
"You're awake now." Naruto said with a smile on his face scooting over for Sasuke to sit down.
"Yeah, I didn't feel your warmth so I knew you weren't around." Sasuke said as he sat down.
"You were fine in the car sleeping." Naruto said with a chuckle.
"Yeah I was but I knew you were there." Sasuke said with a glare.
"I guess your right." Naruto said with a smile.
"What are you thinking about?" Sasuke asked.
"I can't believe it was just a few months ago that you all started living here with us." Naruto said with a smile.
"Yeah, I can't either. Who would have known that this would happen?" Sasuke said.
"I know I didn't but I'm glad it did." Naruto said with a warm smile directed at Sasuke.
"Thanks Naruto," Sasuke said gently grabbing his hand.
"For what?" Naruto asked his head tilting to the side.
"For helping my family and making my life better that's for sure. I love you." Sasuke said kissing Naruto gently.
"I love you." Naruto said after the kiss stopped.
The last thing Sasuke remembers about the night was Naruto's beautiful smile and how he felt like his heart was going to explode from the look Naruto gave him.
