I think I have an issue :/. I don't know why I am writing with this theme as it is my second theme with cheating, or the idea of cheating. But is it cheating? Yuki broke up with Kaito before Itachi took over. Anyway this a two for one deal with the theme punch; punchline and physical assault (Itachi should be arrested). There is much ideas for the word punch I went for the cliché one and one out of the box. Did you know Yuki sucks at jokes? Or that she gets drunk easily?

Itachi sighed as he sipped his whisky waiting for his client to enter the bar so they could move to their seats. He wasn't a fan of this man. He was always late for important meeting like this, or made off handed comment insulting him or his family company.

He finished his whisky and stared at the empty cup, moving the glass gently between his fingers. The only good thing about his client was his girlfriend; a sweet, young girl. Itachi found himself often jealous of his client and inviting him over for informal meetings for just a chance to see the man's girlfriend. Tonight was his last meeting with his client. The last time he will see her.

He clenched his other hand into a fist. He couldn't understand why he was jealous of the man. The girl was cute yes but she hardly spoke and mostly kept quiet and observed the few times she did speak her words barely meant a thing to him. Still he wanted to know what was going through that head of hers, why was she with someone who seemed to think so little about her.

"Have you been waiting long Uchiha?" the obnoxious voice of his client interrupted his thoughts.

Itachi shifted in his seat and stared at the blond man with velvet colored eyes. He was dressed in a purple suit and a black tie looking more like he was European blood then Japanese. Itachi's eyes scanned over him trying to hide his scowl before stopping at the woman to the right of his client.

She was dressed in matching purple dress that showed a lot more skin then she looked comfortable with. Her fingers were tugging along the hem of the dress trying to cover up her bare thighs. She made eye contact with the Uchiha prodigy and looked away.

"Good Evening Uchiha," she said bowing her head avoiding eye contact with him.

"I have told you before call me Itachi," he was staring at the female before glancing at his client, "Glad you could make it Kaito…..Yuki," he bowed his head to the both of them, "I hope this place wasn't too hard to find,"

"Not at all Itachi," Kaito spoke saying 'Itachi' in a mocking tone. His arms wrapping around Yuki's waist, "your directions were just too confusing, we found ourselves walking in circles," he forced a laugh, "should we get a table we are famished," he spoke for his girlfriend.

Yuki looked away nibbling on her lips a nervous habit of hers Itachi had learned. He found it charming but he kept his mouth shut not wanting to insult the idiot while he continued on talking. It was nonsense Itachi barely cared about. He picked up his brief case and followed the two.

The hostess found them a seat right away after Itachi spoke his family name. They sat away from the coward. Itachi giving a seat in the corner to Yuki knowing she would feel more comfortable away from wondering eyes of other customers.

"Should we get started," Itachi asked picking up the menu.

The meal was quiet after they ordered their food. Nobody said anything; Itachi could sense something was breaking in Kaito and Yuki's relationship. He watched her while she chugged down one cup of alcohol and another, an unusual habit of hers. He watched her slowly paying attention to how couple was acting towards one another.

Kaito would move his hands to hers and she would shake it off more interested in the drink. Her cheeks were slightly pink from the alcohol in her system, she giggled slight when their food finally arrived. She ate her dish finishing only half but drinking more of the champagne her boyfriend ordered.

Itachi finally spoke of the business contract getting Kaito to sign so their family could merge with one another and hopefully make money.

"Hopefully we won't see one another anymore," Kaito said sipping his champagne. Yuki giggled a bit drunk from all the drinking she did.

"I was hoping the same thing," Itachi said moving the drink from Yuki and ordering her water to drink instead and more bread.

She giggled more, "I don't want to get fat, are you trying to get me fat Itachi,"

"Not at all Yuki," Itachi said loving the way his names parted from her lips, "I will share the breadsticks with you," he was going to miss seeing her. He wanted to know more about her too bad she was dating the jerk.

The bread came along with the water, Yuki was nibbling the breadsticks by then she was telling lame jokes or attempting to the issue was that she kept missing the punchline. Itachi listened to the jokes and each failing punchline. He would chuckle finding the fact she missed the joke to be cuter and funnier than the actual joke itself.

"What do ninja's like to wear on their feet?" she didn't wait for answer as she continued giggling, "Snickers," she paused waiting for both males reaction.

Itachi chuckled while Kaito glared at his girlfriend, "you missed the punchline again," he crossed his arms over his chest. HE wanted to go home maybe if he was lucky fool around with Yuki, "It is Sneakers, god that is annoying,"

Yuki stared at him the alcohol wearing off. She was looking hurt by each rude comment he made to her. Itachi wanted to punch him.

He stood up and placed his coat on her shoulder, "Let me take you home," he wasn't going to trust Kaito tonight.

Yuki nodded as she held back tears, helped her stand up while she stumbled around trying to stand straight. She leaned on Itachi mumbling something as he paid the bill.

Kaito watched unmoving but looking more furious, "FINE" he snapped, "YOU CAN HAVE THE WHORE!"

Everyone at the restaurant had their eyes on them now. Yuki was still leaning on Itachi slurring words together while sobbing. From what Itachi could catch she was breaking up with Kaito. He placed an arm protectively around the drunken girl before punching Kaito on the cheek knocking off the chair.

"She said she is breaking up with you," he turned around and began walking with her to his car.
