A/N: OH MY GOODNESS. I AM SO SORRY! I can't believe I haven't updated in over a year... I'm TRULY so sorry! I really really really apologize for the delay. Please forgive me T_T... I had the rest of the chapters all written but for some reason just had no motivation to add more and edit THIS chapter. Again, I'm really sorry.
Warning: This is probably the most random chapter in the whole story. Very pointless and definitely unnecessary (probably why I had a hard time writing it...), but still, enjoy!
The early May sun was bringing a cheerful amount of light throughout the city of Konoha. It was shining through one particular window of an apartment holding a certain couple that was doing certain naughty things, rather than spending some time outside enjoying the glorious sunshine and warm weather...
Ino moaned as Itachi pushed her back against the kitchen counter. He placed his hands behind her thighs and lifted her up, flopping her down on the counter. With her legs spread open, he could snuggle in between them, his hands now around her waist. Since their height difference was a good six inches, Ino sitting on the high counter top allowed her to be level with Itachi. She wrapped her slender arms around his neck and pulled him into a kiss.
"So, what are we doing today?" Ino asked, her eyes closed and hands running through his hair as he kissed down her neck.
"Exactly what we did last night." He answered, now leaving a trail of kisses along her jaw. "And this morning."
Ino smiled as he unzipped her sweater, their faces close together with noses touching and their mouths barely an inch apart. He threw her sweater to the ground and reached for the hem of her tank top to pull it up when his cellphone rang on the dining table.
Though irritated that it ruined the mood, Itachi decided to disregard it and returned to removing Ino's shirt until she spoke up.
"Answer it. Or it will keep ringing."
He walked to the table and grabbed his phone and answered while going back to his previous position.
"Hello?... What is it, Kisame?... I'm with Ino... Yes, you did interrupt something, is it obvious in my tone?"
Ino giggled, receiving a smile from Itachi that was quickly wiped off when he focused his attention back to the phone call.
"What?... Hello Deidara... No, now is not a good time... We're not sure yet... I will ask her... Tobi, I'm going to personally see to your demise if you do not hang up... Goodbye."
He put his phone down on the counter and once again wrapped his arms around his girlfriend's thin waist before kissing her cheek.
"What did they say?" Ino replaced her arms around Itachi's neck and pulled him closer.
"It's Deidara's birthday party tonight."
"Oh, how exciting! I love parties!" Ino removed her arms from encircling his neck and clapped her hands together. "We have to go shopping for a gift!"
"Later. In the meantime..." Itachi finally got to remove Ino's shirt with a smirk and kissed her. "Where were we?"
"I hope Deidara likes our gift."
"He will." Itachi kissed her cheek, reassuring her. "Don't worry."
They had just arrived at the Akatsuki members' house, ready to celebrate Deidara's birthday. Before Itachi could grab the handle, the door opened to a familiar face.
"Ino!" Konan appeared in the doorway with a smile on her face. "I thought I heard your ever so loud voice."
Ino laughed, pulling her friend into a tight hug, knowing very well she was kidding. Kind of.
"Hello to you, too. Wow, you look great! You're really taking advantage of your clothes before the bump appears, aren't you?"
She checked out her friend who was dressed in a simple, black tube dress with a gray blazer over it, matched with a pair of black pumps. Ino's outfit was very similar; a royal blue dress with thin straps and a white blazer over it, but with a pair of nude pumps.
"You know it. Come in!" Konan stepped to the side to let Ino and Itachi in. "Hey Itachi!"
"Hello, Konan."
"Is that you, Ino?" A voice called out from just around the corner.
"Nagato!" Ino walked over to the pale redhead and greeted him with a hug. "I totally forgot you two live here!"
Konan shut the door and joined them. "I know, it's hard to believe I would actually live with these freaks."
"What the hell is this? A high school fucking reunion?" The young religious Hidan walked towards them and scoffed, then suddenly shot a glare at Konan, finally realizing what she had said. "HEY! Who the fuck are you calling a freak, paper girl?"
"Oh shut up, Hidan." Konan snapped.
Hidan ignored this remark and focused his attention on Ino. "Well, you sure clean up pretty fucking well, blondie. Especially considering our last encounter."
Ino gave him an award-winning smile, trying not to think of the last time she had seen the Akatsuki members. They were at the airport along with Itachi when Ino suddenly made a grand entrance, wearing a regular coat, but with extra small pajamas she had worn when she was a child.
The rest of the group entered the vast living room upon hearing more voices. Ino smiled at the first of the group, a tall blue skinned man heading towards, who welcomed her with an embrace and a whisper in the ear.
"I hear you and Itachi were quite busy this morning, eh?"
The blonde laughed and playfully slapped his arm. "Shut up, Kisame."
"Hi, Ino!" Tobi entered the large living room and started jumping up and down while screaming, "Tobi is so happy to see you again!"
Ino giggled behind her hand before replying along with a hug, "Hi, Tobi!"
"Tobi made balloons! Lots and lots of them."
"Wow, I can't get over what a great place this is!" Ino faced Itachi who was standing next to her. "Why don't we stay here more often?"
"I like yours better, to be honest. More privacy." Itachi whispered in her ear.
Ino laughed and gave her boyfriend a quick peck on the lips before greeting the rest of the group, who were scattered around the living room. She realized one particular person was missing.
"Where's the birthday boy?"
"Right here, yeah." Deidara entered the living room with a wave.
"Happy birthday, Deidara!" Ino threw her arms around him with a big smile"
"Thanks, Ino." Deidara grinned.
"Are you going to open your gifts, senpai?" Tobi asked, bouncing up and down. "Open Tobi's first!"
Kisame grinned, "He can do that later."
"So, what are we doing now?" Ino glanced at her watch. "It's only 10 o'clock."
"We're taking Dei-chan out!" Konan replied with a smile.
Deidara looked up with a suspicious expression. "Where?"
Hidan grinned. "Somewhere we can get you fucking wasted as hell."
"Ino-CHAN!"
Ino stumbled forward and fell down on her knees when she felt Deidara, clearly drunk off his ass, wrap his arms around her neck and jump onto her back. Thankfully, Itachi was there to take him off of her right away before lifting her off the ground. She was clumsy enough from the alcohol; she didn't need anything else knocking her to the ground.
The Yamanaka heard Itachi ask if she was alright. Ino nodded mindlessly, immune to the pain thanks to her buzz, while looking around at her crazy surroundings.
Hidan and Kakuzu, both shirtless with glitter from an unknown source all over their chests, were making bets on who could take more body shots off two girls. Nagato and Konan were dancing rather crazily, to Ino's surprise, out on the dance floor where Zetsu stood surrounded by a flock of drunk girls. As the white half of him looked very flattered, the black half of him looked completely annoyed. Tobi had passed out very early on after having a few too may shots and had been placed on top of the bar so he wouldn't get trampled over. Sasori, who was taking a break from capturing many drunk shots of the others with his camera, was getting another drink from the bartender. After being tossed to the ground by Itachi, Deidara was slowly crawling across the floor towards Sasori.
Itachi wrapped his arms around her waist tightly and guided her towards the bar, knowing very well she needed some help walking around.
"Come. Let's go sit."
Before he could drag her more than a step, Ino wrapped her arms around Itachi's neck to prevent herself from stumbling even more.
"Thanks for saving me." Ino leaned up and kissed his cheek. "My hero."
His chuckle was cut short as Ino clumsily tilted his face and kissed him on the lips. Soon enough, Ino pushed him to a nearby wall and started kissing him ferociously. He let her push herself up against him, enjoying the feeling of her slender body grinding up against his. Suddenly, Itachi felt fingers reach down to the zipper of his pants.
"Ino." He grabbed a hold of her hand before she could take any more action. "Not here."
Ino formed her peach lips into the perfect pout and looked up at Itachi with wide blue eyes. It didn't go by unnoticed that she was still gently grinding her hips in his. She continued her act and started nibbling on his neck until the Uchiha let out a sigh of defeat. Ino smirked; she knew how to get a guy to surrender to her.
"Fine." He grabbed her hand and led her to what appeared to be a storage closet. After looking around briefly to make sure no one saw them, they quickly snuck in.
A few moments later, Tobi woke up from his spot on the bar, clutching his head that was in massive pain.
"No, the pain is so much for Tobi to handle! And the noise is too loud for Tobi to sleep!"
Tobi walked around, looking for a place for him to get some rest when his eyes lay on a door to a certain closet. He approached the door a lot less merrily than he normally would have done because of the intoxication, clearly unaware of what was going on inside.
"I wouldn't go in there if I were you, Tobi." Sasori, who had seen the couple enter the closet, warned Tobi with a passed out Deidara in his arms.
"Huh? Why?"
"Nevermind." Shaking his head, the red head walked away, grumbling about the weight he had to drag along.
"Hmm. Oh well!"
The masked man slowly opened the door, just a crack, and peered inside to see something he had never seen before.
"AHHHHHHH!" Tobi slammed the door shut and ran as far away as he could from the door, his arms flailing around. "No! My eyes! Tobi's eyes!"
A/N: Party with the Akatsuki members...? YES PLEASE!
Once again, I'm so sorry for not updating for the year. I hope you all have been well! There's only 2 chapters left, and I promise they will both be up no later than June!
