The Perfect Fit- by the Dresden Dolls
Itachi was lounging back on a leather couch while watching a few children playing in the street in the front of his apartment building. He remembered when he was that young, carefree, and innocent- thank goodness that stage passed quickly. Reaching over to the coffee table he picked up a pack of his favorite cigarette and lighter, quickly lighting a fag and inhaling the dark chemical filled smoke.
"You know, those things can kill you." Came a blank voice from behind him.
Smirking slightly he turned to gaze upon a very familiar redhead that had been spending a few months in his presence. "Yes Gaara, these can kill me, but other things can kill me as well. Its just a race to see who will get there first." The other chose not to respond to the remark and sit beside the sinister man. "Oh cheer up, I have some news that should make things seem a lot better- I found them."
A red eyebrow arched when he heard the news, he had been waiting for it quite a while. "Where did they go to?" he inquired.
"London. I never though that he would go back there- but thank goodness for BBC. I was watching it one day when one of those stupid entertainment shows came up. I saw Sasuke's little brat of a love..." he got a fierce glare from Gaara and he knew that if he made any other comments like that he would be out of luck, and a partner. "I saw Naruto walking down one of the streets they were trying to show the charm of."
"So that is where we must go to save him?"
"That is exactly where we have to go... to save him..."
In London
"NARUTO! You brat you have been late for the second day in a row! There is only one reason I have not fired you yet, and do you know what that is? Do you? If you don't I will enlighten you! If I fired you that would cause my to hire a real person to write all of our advertising! Now get to work, Blondie!" Ten-ten screamed at her employee as he ran to throw on the apron he was supposed to wear to work.
"But... but... it was Sasuke he made me late!" He lamely defended himself tying the stupid thing so it was stay on him.
"That is bull and you know it! Uchiha leaves before you do Naruto! Now go to table twelve, they need your service!" she screamed. After she was young yelling and Naruto went to work, she finally got her friendly air back and worked the cash register.
Pouring one of the many customers their coffee Naruto muttered to himself about crazy bosses and oversleeping. It wasn't his fault that Sasuke was wearing him thin at night! That thought caused him to blush at memories of last night.
"Wow dude, you have it hard! I mean my boss yells at me, but God!" the guy said, chuckling at Naruto's misfortune. Finally coming back to reality he looked at the male before him. He had spiked brown hair and these really weird red tatoo's under his eyes. "I've known her to years too! I love this place, only Café around that allows dogs." he smirked, pointing to the white fuzz ball sitting in his lap.
"Yeah it can get kind of hectic around here. I think I have seen you around before..." the blond started.
"Well of course you have! Maybe not have served me, but I love it here. Like I said, dogs." He smiled. "Names Kiba, you must be Blondie- or at least that's that Ten-ten was yelling across the room."
"Nah, she just calls me that to piss me off, real name is Naruto." he said, topping Kiba's coffee off before turning to a girl nearby. "You know, you don't have the British accent, seems a bit more southern, from the states."
"Born and raised in Georgia, dude! Most people don't get that first try, most of the time I am pinned for a Texan right off the bat." Kiba laughed and sipped some of his coffee.
"NARUTO! TABLE SEVEN!" Ten-ten yelled from her spot at the counter.
He twitched as his name was shouted. "Well I have to get going. Guess I will see you around Kiba."
"Yeah, see ya later Blondie!"

A/n: Its summer time! Okay I know that is no reason why it took so long to get this chapter out... and why is so short... but I promise that if I get reviews on this I will try to get three up as fast as I can okay? At least Itachi and Gaara are in this one!
