Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto... nyeh...
Have you guys checked out my DeviantART yet? I know a few of my reviewers have, I'm on their friends list :grin: so far, since I put up my page on the... 18th? I have 13 watcher people! And one of them is Devdasi, one of the niftiest comic writer peoples ever! Yeah, anyway, I didn't get as many reviews cuz of bein' screwed up :grumbles: no one got my story alerts, so some people didn't know the story came out yet.
The beat of the music became faster, as did the dancers.
Devil come this way, towards the clapping hands
In my youthful days I played at Gion
every day, every night with a lullaby
Swaying with a sickle moon seen behind
You're like a Japanese doll
an expression that never changes
softly, eyes close
I sleep beside you
sleep well...
Sai detested the idea of dancing with a complete stranger right after his break up with Naruto, but there was something about the other man that caught his attention, that made his gaze linger longer than it should. The man confused him though... because he looked so fake. His smile didn't match his eyes. Sai expected coal black eyes to go with that smirk, not soft hazel.
He was pulled back against a firm chest, hands placing themselves on his hips, and a puff of warm air being blown against his bare neck.
Now I'm thinking of my own dead mother
and my child on top of those memories
today again, I play the harp's sound
Itachi smirked as he led the both of them into a rythem, their movements smooth and fluent. If the night went well, he'd be invited to the younger boy's house and then he would strike. Kill him with one easy blow to the head, Or better yet... his hands moved further up Sai's hips, to just below his ribs and he smirked once again when he heard a heavy sigh come from the male, I can use him...
Sai would admit that dancing was rather fun... especially with someone like his mysterious partner. This was just what he needed to help him completely get over Naruto.
"Mother and you and my new relation"
without thinking I put my hand on your neck.
You say nothing and you do nothing.
I'm gonna sing the last lullaby for you while you smile at me.
I wonder why I fell in love with you...
The lights went out before coming back with a radiant color of red, making Itachi's eyes look like bloody incarnadine. The disguised raven glanced over at Naruto and noticed that the blond was grinning his ass off while watching them dance. He was probably drunk.
Sai felt the heat getting to him, his cheeks slightly flushed. The humidity was making him dizzy. As was the scent of the mysterious man... as they continued to dance to a new song, Sai couldn't help but notice that the aroma was sickeningly familiar...
Impossible love...(1)
xXxXx
"Where's Sai?" Ino asked curiously, zipping up her jacket as everyone headed outside.
"Probably talking with 'Nazomeita-san'," Naruto snickered.
"Nazomeita? As in mysterious?" the girl shoved through the exiting crowd and found Kiba, Lee, Shikamaru, and Gaara by the wall across the alley.
"Yeah. Some hot guy came and asked him to dance. Heh, I haven't seen him since," he grinned, "they're probably snogging in one of the second floor rooms."
Ino laughed and clapped her hands together delightfully, "Oooh, Sai found someone already?"
"Well, I sort of made him hang out with the guy. Sai didn't seem too fond of the idea, but I convinced him," another foxy grin inserted here, "by practically shoving him into the guy's arms."
"Oh, you're bad," she giggled and waved to their friends, "sorry! We were swept away by the wave of youth!" she said dramatically, imitating Lee.
Gaara glared at her.
"Where's--"
"Snogging," Ino cut Kiba off with a cheery smile.
"... Didn't he just break off a serious relationship that lasted four years? What the hell is the bastard doing making out with someone?.!" The brunette snapped.
Naruto raised his hand with a sheepish smile, "I made him do it."
"..." a sigh, "you're hopeless, man. Now come on, I'm sure Sasuke's in his tiny little room waiting for his handsome prince to sneak him a beer."
"Che, he doesn't drink," Shikamaru said with his hands jammed in his coat pockets, his breath coming out in huffs.
"That's exactly why I got him these!" Naruto pulled a bag of cheese, caramel, butter, and chocolate coated popcorn from the inside of his jacket and smiled.
"Hey, there's Sai," Kiba commented, ignoring the blond who huffed and grumbled something about a no good dog-loving friend.
The raven's hair was disheveled and his cheeks were tinted a light pink. It looked quite suspicious... and who better than Ino to shout her thoughts on the sight before her?
"You had sex!" she screeched like a crazy fangirl.
Sai frowned, "No, I didn't."
"Then how come..." Kiba trailed off, pointing at the messy hair.
"It's windy, of course my hair would be messed up," Sai stated smartly.
"Hn, smartass," Kiba snorted, "and where's this guy Naruto and Ino were telling me about, huh?"
"Nazomeita-san!" Ino and Naruto chimed in together.
"You mean Inouye?" Sai frowned, Nazomeita-san?
"Yeah, sure. Sooooo, are you two going to be seeing each other any time soon?" Naruto asked foxily, his cerulean eyes gleaming.
"Well... he did ask me out. We have a date tomorrow."
Everyone but Shikamaru grinned, the lazy man yawning and walking past all of them, tired of their stupidity, Really... why didn't I dump them years ago?
xXxXx
"I got some ass, how 'bout you?" Hidan laughed.
Itachi sat on the dusty couch next to his comrade, pulling a cigarette out of his coat and lighting it on the lit candle sitting on the crate/table in front of them. He put it between his lips and inhaled deeply, taking in all the smoke his lungs could hold, before exhaling through his nose.
"Wow... you never smoke unless you're stumped on something," Hidan's brows furrowed together.
"I want him dead," Itachi said while taking another drag.
"Who? That Sai guy?"
"But I want his body more," the weasel stated, "the way he looked at me... it reminded me so much of my little Otouto," he smirked.
"Oh, so you want to break him," it was more of a statement than a question.
"And so much more."
"I like breaking people as much as the next guy, but you take it to a whole new level, Weasel-san," Hidan grinned, "you play with their minds until they're trapped, then you break them down and kill them... By the way, when do you want me to call Deidara? I told your kid brother that someone'd be visiting him real soon to get his answer."
"Call him now and tell him to go in three days. I want to have some time with my new toy before I deal with my Otouto," he shoved his cigarette in the ash tray and leaned back against the couch, watching the smoke rise.
xXxXx
Naruto arched up as a tongue ran down his stomach and swirled around his belly button, "Ngh, Sasuke, stop it!" he tried to sound angry, but he couldn't help the small moan that slipped from between his lips, "dammit, Teme, there's cameras in here!" he squirmed away and pulled his shirt down.
Sasuke growled, "You're going to have to deal with it sooner or later, Dobe, because I'm going to be surrounded with cameras until I'm dead. Sex now," he grabbed at Naruto's legs, but the blond crawled away and curled up against the wall, pouting.
"I don't like knowing that I'm part of a gay porno!" he whined.
The raven's right eye twitched, "What's the point in having you back when we can't even have sex?"
Naruto pouted again.
"It was a joke, Dobe," Sasuke sighed and sat up.
"Get a room without cameras and I'll let you do whatever you want to me," Naruto grumbled, "but you're not getting any now. I'm not a creepy exhibitionist like you!"
"Hn," Sasuke looked over at Naruto's discarded jacket lying on the floor and raised an eyebrow at a large lump in the pocket, "what's in your jacket?"
"Huh? Oh! I got you some popcorn at the club!" Naruto got up and bent down to grab the bag, pulling it out of the pocket and tossing it to his boyfriend with a grin, "I knew you didn't like alcohol, so I got you that instead."
Sasuke eyed the snack with a calculating gaze.
"Hey, it was either that or raisin boxes," the blond snickered. He sat back down on the bed and leaned against Sasuke, lying his head on his shoulder, smiling when a hand was immediately placed on his waist, "promise to eat it?"
"It's full of fat and sugar."
"Come on, you have to have a little bit of lipids and glucose!" Naruto shot back with an impish grin.
"Fine... but you have to agree to sex," Sasuke smirked.
"Teme! Jeez, Sai was never like this," he complained, but realized his mistake almost immediately, "u-um... s-sorry..."
"It's alright," the raven said through gritted through teeth, "by the way... I heard from Ino that Sai was at the club too," he narrowed his eyes.
"As a friend! It's over between us, Sasuke, quit getting all posessive," he twirled a drawstring on Sasuke's pants around with his fingers, "besides, he met a really cool guy this evening," he grinned, "apparently, his name's Inouye and he asked Sai out on a date for tomorrow. So you don't have to worry about him coming after me again," Naruto rolled his eyes.
"Good," Sasuke pulled his lover back and they both cuddled against each other for warmth in the chilly room.
"You should've seen him, Sasuke, he was hot!"
Sasuke frowned.
"Not hotter than you, but pretty hot! He had red hair, you know, sort of like Gaara's except down to his shoulder blades, and he had soft hazel eyes. But both Sai and I agreed that those eyes didn't match his expressions at all. He should've had black eyes, like yours. Oh! And he had these thin scars going down his cheeks, from his eyes."
Sasuke's hands stiffened around Naruto's waist, but the blond didn't notice.
"Now that I think about it... he looked a lot like you. The only difference was the scars and the color of his eyes... Sasuke? What's wrong?"
Itachi...
"My brother..."
xXxXx
Sai stepped past a group of children waiting for their mothers on the curb, avoiding a little boy asking if he wanted to play with them. He lifted his hand up and looked at the directions on his palm again.
His apartment should be somewhere near here...
He continued to look around and finally found the apartment complex at the end of a dead end street. His gaze fell onto the old looking place and he frowned, this can't be it... he walked towards the door and looked in, surprised to see the inside almost completely demolished. It was just support beams, dirt, grass, and rotting furniture.
"There must be another complex like this further down the street..." but when he turned around, something collided with his head and he stumbled back, his vision blurring. He felt blood running down the side of his face and he collapsed, falling onto the gravel sidewalk. As his eyes closed, a chuckle echoed through his aching head. He tried to focus on the figure above him and only saw long blond hair and a red and black cloak.
"Don't nap for too long... yeah... Itachi-san won't like that."
Sai blinked a couple of times before his mind went blank and his vision dulled to nothing.
Sorry, I know it's short... but Ghost Hunters is on, heh :sweatdrop:
