Chapter 7: Come On Get Higher
"That went rather well, didn't it?"
Kakuzu glares. Yamada ignores the glare and walks into the room, still smiling.
"No? Hm, it did lack a certain passion, didn't it?"
"What do you want?" Kakuzu asks, ignoring Yamada's statement. "I did what I promised."
"Why didn't you take him to the black room instead?" Yamada asks flatly.
Kakuzu face darkens. "I wanted him to feel what pleasure was like for once."
"I can already tell he responds more to pain than pleasure. Next time, you will take him to the black room." Yamada commands. He then turns toward the door and walks over to it. He stops when Kakuzu asks quietly,
"...and what if I don't?"
Yamada smirks. "Then I'm sure someone else will." He slams the door as he leaves.
Kakuzu squeezes a pillow in his fist then throws it forcefully against the wall. "Fuck!"
"What?" Hidan asks as he steps out of the bathroom with his jumpsuit only covering the bottom half of his body.
Kakuzu's face remains blank. "Nothing. We should get some sleep."
Hidan shrugs and bounces over to the bed. He jumps on it and snuggles under the soft covers. Kakuzu watches him and with a sigh, turns his back and faces the opposite direction as Hidan.
He tries to fall asleep. Hidan's steady breathing distracts him. To make matters worse, in the middle of the night Hidan wraps his entire body around Kakuzu.
Typical... Kakuzu thinks as he tries harder to fall asleep while Hidan's snores reverberate through the room.
In the morning the bell wakes Hidan up. He groans and holds on tighter to Kakuzu who tries to get out of the bed instantly. He pulls himself out of Hidan's grip which makes Hidan fall onto the floor.
"Shit!" he yells. "Why'd you do that, bastard!?"
Kakuzu looks down at him with those piercing lime eyes and says in a disapproving tone, "You wouldn't let go."
Hidan's eyes widen and he blushes. "I'd never slept with someone before." he mumbles as he stands up.
Kakuzu walks toward the door that had just automatically opened then looks back at Hidan asking, "Are you coming?"
Hidan glances at the bathroom and walks toward it saying, "I'll catch up later."
Kakuzu raises an eyebrow then warns before he walks out,
"Just don't stay in here to long. Someone might come in here and rape you."
"As if anyone could!" Hidan yells as he walks into the bathroom and closes the door.
About 20 minutes later Hidan walks into the common room. Kakuzu looks up at him. He notices that, while everyone else zips their jumpsuits up, Hidan's is unzipped, exposing his chest and a necklace with a strange symbol on it. His hair is slicked back and looks slightly moist. Hidan's face is also a little flushed.
"Did you take another shower?" Kakuzu asks as Hidan sits down next to him.
''Er... yeah. What's it to you?" Hidan says as he reaches out and steals a roll from Tobi. He ignores Tobi's whining as he bites into it lazily.
"Why not just take a shower tonight?" Kakuzu asks.
Hidan flinches. "I'm never goin' in that Jashin damned hell hole again!"
"So... you're never going to shower again?"
"Nope!"
"You're going to stink." Kakuzu informs him bluntly.
"Don't care." Hidan answers as he takes another bite.
Kakuzu sighs. "What if I promised to protect you?"
Hidan snorts. "I don't even trust you. You're a criminal, remember?"
Kakuzu then grabs Hidan's chin and lifts it up while staring into pink orbs. "What if I had an ulterior motive for wanting to protect you?"
Hidan jerks his face away, blushing slightly and muttering, "Whatever..."
Suddenly a loudspeaker comes on and Hidan recognizes Yamada's voice. He sounds cheerful yet serious as he announces,
"As some of you may know, tonight is visiting night. Those of you expected to have visitor's coming are as follows..." He begins reading a short list of names. Hidan doesn't hear anyone familiar until, near the end, Yamada says,
"Uchiha Itachi." in a clear, unwavering voice.
He glances at the dark individual at the end of the table but doesn't notice any distinct changes in his posture that would indicate that he was affected by the announcement. Hidan screws up his face wondering who could possibly want to see Itachi. He killed everyone he knew for jashin's sake!
Kakuzu could see the thoughtfulness on Hidan's face and puts the pieces together. He leans down and whispers,
"There is a visitor's day once a month. Every single month, Itachi's only younger brother comes, and every time, he tries to kill Itachi. Even knowing this, Itachi continues to go see him, every time. He won't talk about it. He leaves with that same expression on his face and comes back with that expression on his face, like he's completely unaffected. But, he always demands sex right afterwords. In the black room..."
"What's in the black room?" Hidan asks, not bothering to lower his voice.
"You'll find out soon enough." Zetsu smirks.
Hidan is confused but more than that he is curious. Despite the foreboding feeling this 'black room' give him, he can't help but wonder what it is like. He turns to Kakuzu and asks innocently,
"When can we go to the black room?"
Kisame nearly spits his drink out. He tries to cover it up by coughing but no one misses it. Sasori raises an eyebrow at the shark man. Kisame shrugs. "What? I was surprised! He doesn't even know what it is!" he whispers.
Kakuzu is also startled. He looks away and mutters, "Not tonight, obviously. But soon..."
Hidan nods then he yawns. "What is there to fucking do around here?" he asks.
"You could do art, un." Deidara says happily.
"Nah." Hidan waves his hand, "I suck at art."
"You can read." Pain offers.
Hidan makes a face and scrunches his nose. Kakuzu rolls his eyes. "Watch tv?" he asks.
"Boring!" Hidan says.
"There are board games!" Tobi throws in.
Hidan's eyes light up. " Let's all play monopoly!" He says excitedly.
The table groans in response.
"What's wrong with monopoly?" he pouts.
"There isn't anything wrong with the game itself," Kisame says, "It's just that some people end up taking it too seriously!" he jerks his head at Kakuzu as he says 'some.'
Kakuzu shoots back a glare. Hidan laughs.
"Maybe we can get the red room tonight?" Sasori says to Deidara suddenly.
Deidara's answer to that is to place a sweet kiss on Sasori's lips.
"If Hidan and Kakuzu don't take it first." Sasori teases.
Konan suddenly speaks up. "Hidan and Kakuzu... It kinda flows off the tongue doesn't it? It just sounds right."
"It's nearly dinner time." Kakuzu scowls. "Shouldn't Itachi get going soon?"
Itachi stands up immediately leaving the others at the table to decide if they should risk starting a game of monopoly.
__________________________________________________
Itachi waits silently in one of the visitors room. His gaze is blank as he stares endlessly at the wall. He sighs and looks down thinking, Sasuke is late today... maybe he has finally stopped coming...
Suddenly a boy who looks like an exact copy of Itachi burst into the room. He has the same deep eyes and pitch black hair. His isn't long like Itachi's, though, and the look on his face is anger instead of the calm look on Itachi's. Uchiha Sasuke rushes at Itachi with a yell. Itachi smirks before grabbing Sasuke and pinning him against the wall with one hand around his neck.
Sasuke cringes and glares up at his older brother, a slight red tinting his eyes. Itachi leans down and whispers in Sasuke's ear,
"Foolish little brother..."
Sasuke's eyes go wide and he struggles. Itachi releases him and backs away. Sasuke rubs his neck and glares.
"You were late today. How come?" Itachi asks.
Itachi doesn't miss the slight blush hidden beneath a glare as Sasuke yells, "Shut up! You don't deserve to know anything!"
He runs at Itachi and the elder dodges easily. He grabs Sasuke's wrist and flips him onto the ground in one swift motion. While pinning his little brother to the ground Itachi asks,
"Did you're girlfriend hold you up maybe? What's her name?"
"His name!" Sasuke spits then instantly his eyes widen at the fact that he said something he hadn't meant to. Itachi chuckles.
"I see..."
Sasuke growls. "Don't mock me! You're in jail right? How many times have you been fucked by men in here!?"
"Quite a few, actually..." Itachi muses as he releases Sasuke and stands up. "You're still not strong enough to kill me, Sasuke. You should just give up."
Sasuke stands up as well. His face wary.
"Tell me why you didn't kill me!" Sasuke demands.
Itachi sighs. "You ask the same question every time you come here. The answer always remains the same."
Sasuke sneers then he walks towards the door. Before he leaves Itachi mutters, "Please don't come here again little brother."
Sasuke turns around. His face matching that of his brothers as he says,
"You say that every time. It hasn't worked yet."
Sasuke walks out of he room leaving Itachi smoldering with intensity at their meeting. The same intensity he has to relieve every time after he sees his brother.
He stands up to leave himself but then a guard walks in and says, "Don't leave yet. There is another man here wishing to visit with you. He registered last minute."
Itachi scowls in confusion but sits back down as a boy with short blonde hair and clear blue eyes walks into the room. He glares at Itachi as he sits down. Something about this boys glare makes Itachi smirk. He crosses his arms as he asks,
"And you are...?"
"Uzumaki Naruto! Nice to meet you... well, not really, but you get it." the blond says loudly.
"Have I ever met you before Uzumaki Naruto?" Itachi asks, wondering if this person is just unintelligent.
"I'm... a friend of Sasuke's." Naruto says softly. "I followed him here because he wouldn't tell me where he would always go off to! He thought he shook me but I figured out where he was going and came here myself."
"Aaaah..." Itachi says thoughtfully. "Sasuke's friend you say? You must be the reason he was late today. It is nice to meet you."
"Ptff!" Naruto says as he leans back in the chair. "Nice to meet me, huh? Whatever. I just came here to ask you some stuff about Sasuke, that's all."
Itachi smiles. "Before you do that can you tell me a little bit more about yourself. As Sasuke's older brother I want to make sure he's keeping good company and look out for him."
Naruto's eyes grow wide. "Look out for him!? Is that what you were doing when you killed everyone you sick bastard!? Sasuke is depressed, angry and verging on suicidal because of you yet you claim you want to look out for him!? Who the fuck do you think you are?"
Itachi flinches briefly at these words. He smiles sadly when he looks up and says, "I honestly do care about Sasuke. If you believe nothing more of what I say at least believe that much."
Naruto just stares at him with narrowed eyes. "You look like him, you know." he says quietly a moment later.
"We are brothers after all." Itachi answers.
Naruto shakes his head. "No, it isn't just that. Your expressions are almost exactly the same. It's strange. You aren't really like I thought you'd be..."
"What did you think I'd be like?"
Naruto waves his hands as he says, "You know, crazy and stuff."
Itachi laughs. "You aren't what I'd expect for my brother's lover either."
Naruto blushes deeply. "I-I'm not-" he stops and looks up. "Did Sasuke tell you?"
"No... but he did let slip something about his 'girlfriend' being more of a 'boyfriend'." Itachi mutters. Then his eyes go soft as he says even quieter, "Does he ever talk about it?"
Naruto's gaze is lowered as he answers, "No... that's why I'm here. I want to know more about it. He won't let me in! He says I won't understand but I will! I will! I just want to help him but I don't know how."
"I'm sorry." Itachi nearly whispers. "I'm sorry about all the pain i've caused but I'm afraid I can't tell you any more."
Naruto glares and stands up. "Then I guess i'll just go."
He walks toward the door and Itachi says, "It really was nice to meet you Uzumaki Naruto. I'm glad my brother's found someone like you."
Naruto nods before exiting, leaving Itachi with painful thoughts that he knows can only be resolved one way. He walks out of the visitor's room and straight to the black room. Waiting for him inside is Kisame. When he enters, Kisame stands up and rushes over to him. He embraces the Uchiha and, even though Itachi's face betrays no emotion, his heart is heavy with guilt.
"You should just tell him." Kisame advises.
Itachi glares. "It's none of your business. Now let's do what we are here for."
Kisame sighs and walks toward Itachi with disgusted lust in his eyes...

Hidan lies in his bed, thinking about what had happened in the red room the previous night.
Hmph... he thinks as he turns over, If that's what sex is like, then it's nothing special. I'm never gonna displease Jashin-sama by doing it ever again.
Though Hidan did quite like the way Kakuzu had kissed him. He maybe wouldn't mind doing that some more...
__________________________________________________
Yeah... sub plot! kinda... whatever. I feel the need to put a hint of SasuNaru in like, all my stories... so... that's why. I'll work on the Kakuzu/Hidan sex. Hopefully I will feel more inspired when they are in the black room!
Review if you don't want me to kill someone!(maybe Itachi perhaps)
