'....Jacobson.....'
'It's J.J.'

Brown eyes stared widely at bright green, which held a playful twinkle that made Van want to embrace him. He was still alive! Years ago, when he had put the boy into the hospital he had disappeared from his room. They were forced to assume that the gang leader got him and no doubt killed him. But here he was, right before him.

'.....H-How?'
'I owe you very much Van for trying to save me, and in a way you did.'
'But, he got you again didn't he?'
'Yes, but your effort and determination to save me gave me much hope and even after I was taken I never once doubted your bravery so I made my own. After he got me back he could no longer scare me, in fact I even stood up to the man and escaped'

Van gave a smile and a light laugh. The boy was alive, and thanking him! Gently shaking his head he walked over till he stood before the boy, placing his hands on the boy's shoulders.

'I'm glad your alright, that's all the matters now'
'Heh, but of course I'm alright, but that is not the matter of importance right now. What is though, is your case'
'How did you-'
'Please don't bother to question, there are many things I know that I shouldn't.'

Van blinked, then stared at the boy in, well utter shock. The way he said those words, it was almost like a sneer. with a slight gulp he stepped forward, slightly worried the boy would run. He didn't. In fact he started to walk forward as well and in a moment was standing in front of the cop, a soft smile on his face. The blonde lifted his hand and gently cupped the older ones face, a soft smile still on his face.

'You've aged quite a bit Van. Yet, you still hold that air of bravery. You were such a brave man, and attractive. You still are'
'........What are you talking about?'

The boy simply smiled, placing both hands on the man's face. His emrald eyes held a certain sparkle as he pulled Van' head down a bit and lend close, their lip's brushing. Van instantly tensed up and was about to pull away but when the lips brushed agaisnt his he realized he was saying something

Relax, you were followed. Play along

His hands slid away from his face and wrapped around his neck, their lips so close to any other it would seem as if they were kissing. To complete the image they both closed their eyes and J.J. tilted his head to the side slightly so their lips were hidden.

Sorry, but I have information. Their still alive

Van's eyes went wide and he stood up straight, an arm around the boy's slim waist. He gave him a disapproving look and a sigh escaped him as he gently shook his head.

'No. I-We can't do this. It's wrong'
'Van-'
'No, we can't'

His arms slid off the boy and his hands slid into his pockets. Smiling gently he gave one last gesture of ruffling the youngers hair. With a soft wink he turned his back and started to head back the way he came.

'If you need me, you know where to find me. See you around.....Jackson'
'....it's J.J.'

Chuckling faintly Van continued on the path back to his car. Once he was back in the vehicle he quickly took off, but only drove a bit away then parked and let his hands rest on his face.

Thinking time. What the hell just happened??

'Akasuna?'

Sasori's eyes tore away from the ground and stared up at the one who called him, Itachi. The boy raised a brow a curious look in his dusty rose eyes. The black haired male walked up to the other, stopping a step away from the redhead.

'What are you doing here?'
'I want to see them.'
'Come on Akasuna, we both know you hate Sakura so why would you care about her hmm?'
'I don't I care about Ino, and Deidara! Now tell me where they are! I want to see him!'

Itachi gave a faint smile and put an arm around the redheads slim waist, pulling his body against he own. Sasori blink in slight surprise then glared at Itachi who was an inch or two above him. Ruby eyes locked on to hazel as a hand gently brushing away from of the smaller males red locks. The smile turned to a smirk as he cupped the boy's cheek.

'Sasori face it. Deidara left Sakura but that doesn't mean he left her for you'
'Are you saying he left for you?!'
'Maybe, I mean Deidara and I have always been close......'
'Shut up Itachi, you don't know anything!'
'Silly boy, why don't you give up? There are far better people out there for you then him....'

Sasori stared at the boy with a deadly glare and was about to say something rather crude but was cut off when Itachi crashed their lips together. Shocked, his eyes went as they stared at the other who's eyes slid closed. The dark haired boy started to move his lips against the others, and despite himself Sasori's body started to relax, his own eyes sliding closed. Placing one hand on the boy's lower back and the other on the back of his head the kiss deepened and Sasori slowly wrapped his hands around the others neck, every minute their kiss becoming more passionate. Itachi took a step and pressed the other against the wall, the hand that had been on his lower back now was sliding down his body, slender fingers teasingly dipping under the shirt. Sasori gasped at the cold touch, their lips parted only for a moment before crashing to another lustful kiss.

'Jones?'

The said blonde was laying on a cot in the resting room, his blue eyes focused on the oddly patterned ceiling. His gaze tore away from the tile and drifted to the door, locking gazes with the soft eyes of his captain. Surprised, the boy quickly sat up, his shock clearly showing. The older man smiled and walked over to the boys bed, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder.

'How are you feeling kid?'
'Much better sir! I'll get back to work right away!!'
'Tch, Jones! that's not what I came in here for you dork. Shancus is back.'

The blonde gave a happy gasp and leaped from the bed. Giving his captain a smile he ran from the room and to the front room. It was filled with everyone from the station, in the middle a rather flustered Shancus.

'G-Guys! It's fine!!'
'Shancus!'

The green haired boy looked up for a moment before he was pulled into a hug that almost took the boy off his feet. The boy blinked in shock, then looked at who had grabbed him. When he spotted the blonde he let out a happy gasp and threw his arms around the others neck. Laughing lightly Jones held the boy, almost cuddling him. The group around them either laughed lightly or smiled. The two were so close it was adorable.

'Shancus! Hey there kid! Are ya alright?!'
'Y-ya! I'm fine. Tch, I'm tough!'

Jones rolled his eyes while a few others chuckled. The kid was nuts. Smiling, Jones ruffled the boys hair then rested the hand on his shoulder. Shancus gave a light laugh, his eyes cheerfully closed. No matter how tough the kid acted he would always be the baby of the station, not that anyone minded, after all he was like a little brother to all of them.

From the doorway the captain smiled, gently shaking his head. He was glad he assigned Shancus to Van and Jones, the boy seemed to have an affect on both of them. Actually, When they were younger the main reason he put Jones with Van was so that Jones would help calm down Van when his angered boiled since the blonde was so gentle. It worked wonders. Now the captain watched with a soft smile at the two youngest chat a bit. On both Van and Jones, Shancus brought out a rather brother like factor. They both seemed to care very deeply for the small boy. It made the captain proud to have such caring men.

Taking one last look at the scene he turned and started to head back to his office. It maybe happy now, but it was only one more day before they had to pronounce the missing teens as dead.

Part 12!!! Confused? X3 I'll try to clear some more things up! PROMISE! (BTW hints of ItaSaso but it's not the canon of the story)
