Naruto wiped at his eyes as he made his way to the front of the building. He then pulled out his cellphone and walked to the side of the builing to be hidden in case Sasuke showed up.
He dialed Itachi's number and placed the phone to his ear. He sniffled, hoping to control some of his crying.
"Hello?" Itachi answered after the second ring.
"H-hey can you please pick me up?" Naruto asked, trying his best to keep his voice steady.
"Is everything okay?" Itachi immediately asked, he could tell the blonde sounded off.
Naruto choked back a sob. "I don't really want to talk about it right now. Can you please pick me up?"
"Yeah, sure." Itachi answered. "I'll just grab my dad's keys and be righ there. The aquarium, right?"
"Can you actually pick me up from the coffee shop across the street?"
There was a pause before Itachi agreed and the two hung up. Naruto then made his way to the shop across the street.
He arrived and ordered a drink, trying to will himself not to cry.
It didn't take long for Itachi to arrive in the shop, looking around and spotting Naruto, giving him a concerned look.
Naruto stood up and ran to the raven, throwing himself into his arms. He began to sob and Itachi stood there, slowly rubbing his back.
The two stood there until Naruto controlled his sobs.
"Aw," the two looked up towards the voice to see an elderly lady smiling at them. "You two are such a cute couple."
"Thank you." Itachi smiled at her. Naruto let out a strangled sob and Itachi quickly began to usher the blonde out of the shop and towards the car.
Itachi opened the door for Naruto and then climbed into the driver's seat.
"Sasuke is such a fucking asshole!" Naruto screeched out as soon as the door closed, beginning to cry. "I don't know why I stay with him."
"What happened?" Itachi asked with concern.
"We were on a double date with Gaara and Neji, which I didn't even want to go on!" Naruto glared at the dashboard. "And everything was going so good until he just starts yelling at me about how I'm smothering him. I tell him we don't even see each other at school. Then he goes on to say he found the freedom he's been missing. I remind him of the promise he made and he says he doesn't want to be a father!"
Itachi's eyes widened in surprise. "Yeah, Sasuke is an asshole."
Naruto let out a sigh. "You know, I've been feeling really guilty about that kiss, for both Sasuke and you."
"You shouldn't be feeling guilty." Itachi replied. "It was an honest mistake, if anything, I should be the one feeling guilty. I was the one who took advantage of you."
Naruto was silent for a moment. "Do you feel guilty?"
Itachi gave a thoughtful look. "No. I don't. And honestly, if the situation arose again, I'd do it again."
Naruto stared at him in disbelief before letting out a scoff and turning away, crossing his arms over his chest.
Itachi frowned at the blonde's reaction. He let out a sigh as he figured Naruto wasn't going to say anything. He turned on the car and began to drive away.
The silence in the car seemed deafening. Itachi kept glancing at the blonde, hoping his mood would improve.
After a few minutes of the silence, Naruto turned to face Itachi. "I'm not going back to your house. I want to be dropped off at my grandparents."
Itachi's eyes widened at the blonde's words as he felt mild shock. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He didn't have to say those words to the blonde, but he couldn't help but be honest. "Alright, no problem." He made a quick turn and began the drive to Naruto's grandparents.
Sasuke took a step forward once Naruto was out of sight, he needed to find the blonde and apologize. He was stopped by Gaara who quickly was in front of him, fist flying towards him.
He was on the floor in an instant, his eye throbbing painfully. "Fuck!" The raven cried out. "What the fuck is your problem?!"
"You! You're my problem!" Gaara growled out, fists clenched tightly at his sides. He narrowed his eyes in an angered glare. "You've treated Naruto like shit for the last time!"
"I'm sorry." Sasuke looked away from Gaara and stood up slowly. "I didn't actually mean it." He mumbled, unable to look the red-head in the eye.
"It sure sounded like you meant it." He hissed out.
"I was just pissed and I was feeling smothered by him."
Gaara's anger intensified. "You should've talked with Naruo instead of getting angry at him! He's trying so hard to be with you!"
Sasuke stays silent, guilt washing over him as Gaara's words sank in.
"Naruto's pregnant?"
Both Gaara and Sasuke looked at each other in shock and turned to see Neji looking at them in horror.
"Neji," Gaara said the brunette's name calmly, taking a step forward.
"No!" Neji screamed, taking a step back. "You're only fifteen! What is your guys' problem?!" He grabbed at his hair, pulling it slightly in frustration. "And Kiba hangs out with people like you?! I need to stop Hinata from seeing him."
"Neji, please don't tell anyone." Sasuke practically begged.
Neji sent a glare at the raven.
Gaara gently placed a hand on Neji's arm. "Sasuke is a complete asshole, and honestly I don't give a fuck about if you tell people for his sake."
Neji's glare narrowed further at the raven. "I should."
Sasuke's eyes widened. "Neji, please. You can't tell anyone!"
"But you shouldn't," Gaara interjected, grabbing Neji's attention. "For Naruto's sake." Neji's eyes were still narrowed. "He's hopelessly in love with this asshole, and if word got out that he's pregnant, his and the baby's safety would be compromised."
Neji's glare softened as he looked down at Gaara.
"Naruto just wants a happy family,the kind he never had and always wanted." Gaara continued on.
Neji let out a soft sigh before giving him a small smile. "Alright, fine, for Naruto. And you." He gave the red-head a wink before turning back to Sasuke, glare back in place. "You truly don't deserve someone like Naruto." He turned back to Gaara. "Come on, let's get out of here. Let Sasuke find his own way now."
Sasuke frowned as he watched the pair walk away. Shortly after, he began to walk towards the exit. He reached the exit and looked around outside, hoping to spot Naruto. He pulled out his cellphone and dialed Itachi's number, still looking out for a head of blonde hair.
To his frustration, there was no answer and he scowled to himself as Itachi's voicemail message began to play. "Hey asshole," he began as soon as he heard the beep. "What's the point of having a phone if you aren't going to answer it?!" He hung up, shoving his phone back into his pocket.
He stood there for about a minute before letting out an audible growl. "Fuck it, I guess I'll walk home."
By the time he reached his house, and attempting to call Itachi another time, the sun was low in sky, beginning to set. As he got closer to his home, he noticed their dad's car in the driveway, indicating that Itachi was home.
He felt his anger rise again and he stormed his way into the house.
"Itachi!" Sasuke shouted as soon as he slammed the front door closed. "Itachi!" His brother wasn't anywhere downstairs after checking all the rooms. He clambered up the stairs and threw his brother's bedroom door open only to find it empty.
At the lack of Itachi's presence, Sasuke just felt more irritated. He began to walk to his own room, ready to vent to Naruto.
"I can't fucking believe Itachi, after you left-" Sasuke paused midsentence to see his brother in his room instead of Naruto. He narrowed in at what exactly Itachi was doing, packing up Naruto's suitcase.
"What the fuck are you doing?!" Sasuke began to shout, stomping his way over to his brother's side. "Leave Naruto's stuff alone!" He reached out to grab the suitcase, only for him to be stopped by Itachi's hand.
The older raven said nothing as he pushed past Sasuke and began to walk out of the room with his suitcase in hand.
"Where the fuck do you think you're going with Naruto's stuff?!" Sasuke yelled after him, following behind.
Itachi continued to ignore Sasuke, walking down the hallway before descending down the stairs.
"Stop fucking ignoring me,
Itachi!" Sasuke continued after him. But he was still ignored.
Itachi opened the front door and began to walk outside towards the car.
"Are you serious?" Sasue growled and ran up behind his brother, giving him a shove.
Itachi slowly turned to face his little brother, his face blank. "Naruto moved out."
Sasuke's eyes widened.
"Because of your outburst," Itachi continued on. "Naruto is moving out and wants nothing to do with either of us ever again."
Sasuke looked at him in disbelief before .scrunching his nose up in confusion. "Wait a minute, us?"
Itachi let out a sigh before placing Naruto's suitcase in the trunk of the car. He had a feeling that this conversation will get physical, his brother was already irritated after all, and he didn't want any of Naruto's stuff to get damaged in the case it did break out into a fight.
He turned back to Sasuke once Naruto's suitcase was placed safely inside. "You remember the other day when you asked me if something happened with Naruto and I said I didn't know?" Sasuke nodded, not saying anything. "Well, I lied. I do know because I was there. And I was the cause of it."
Sasuke's eyes once again widened in shock, but still he said nothing, waiting for Itachi to continue.
"When I was home, I noticed Naruto throwing up and I offered to make him soup. Sometime between me offering and coming back, Naruto fell asleep. When I came back and tried to wake him up, he was half asleep, thought I was you and kissed me. And I kissed him back."
Sasuke went rigid at his brother's words. "And why would you think it was okay for you to kiss him back?" He asked through clenched teeth.
Itachi stayed silent, mentally debating whether or not to tell Sasuke the truth.
Sasuke growled. "Just tell me!"
"There was that time when Naruto and I went out alone together," the younger raven narrowed his eyes. "I kissed him there and he didn't resist."
Sasuke sucked his teeth, crossing his arms over his chest. "So he lied to me about you making a move on him then, huh." It wasn't a question.
"I guess s-" Itachi grunted as Sasuke's fist slammed into his face. He groaned as he covered his eye, it was already painfully throbbing.
Sasuke turned back around, walking towards the house without saying anything.
Itachi let out a sigh before getting in the car, and heading towards Naruto.
He arrived shortly and with Naruto's suitcase in hand. He walked up to the door and knocked.
Naruto opened the door, a bored look on his face. As Itachi texted him, he mentally and emotionally prepared himself to grab his suitcase and never talk to the Uchiha again. He held out his hand and waited for Itachi to hand it over to him. He was about to close the door when he took a peak at Itachi's face and gasped as he noticed Itachi's eye beginning to swell. "What happened?"
Itachi looked the blonde up and down, stopping at the cerulean eyes that were filled with concern. He let out a sigh. "Sasuke knows the truth."
Naruto stayed silent, suitcase in hand.
"About both times."
Naruto looked the raven up and down before opening his mouth, only to be interrupted.
"Naruto, I'm sorry."
"For what?" Naruto quickly asked.
"For interfering with your relationship with my brother. Sasuke wouldn't have made as many mistakes if he didn't come and talk to me about certain things. I was being selfish. I wanted to have you for myself. After seeing how hurt Sasuke is though, I regret doing it and I hope things can go back to how they used to be, or as close to it."
There was a long pause as Naruto soaked in Itachi's words. "I'm not sure if that's possible." There was more silence as the two stayed quiet. The blonde let out an annoyed sigh after figuring Itachi had nothing else to say. "You should just go."
Itachi nodded, letting out a slow breath. "Okay." He turned to leave.
"Thanks for telling me all of that." Naruto said as Itachi took a step forward. He gave a half smile as the raven turned to look at him and shut the door.
