Omg, hi! This is a new chapter to the story so I can attach what happened at the end of chapter 4 part 7 to the story :) I thank you for your patience for me taking so long on chapter 4; I didn't realize that it would take nearly 4+ months to write, and I'm sorry. It seemed that it was a much needed for this story that was swiss cheese to me. Anyway, I hope that you'll stay and continue to read this story.

Enjoy~

With his head on his desk, Naruto sighed from exhaustion; "Yo, Naruto!" Picking up his head, Naruto smiled and waved at Kiba who was standing at the door,"Ready for lunch?" Nodding, he got up and walked over to Kiba, his classmates smiling at Naruto's happiness.

"So what's up? Are we going to the roof?" Naruto smiled, his clasping behind him.

"Nah, I think Neji was able to get one of the teachers to let us borrow the heater while we're next to the rooftop door." Kiba smiled, "How was your break? Shika took me out every day to the movies, the arcade or some restaurant; he gave me an awesome present too!"

"What did you get?" Naruto bounced in his step, dodging the people in the halls as they went towards the upperclassmen hall to get to the stairway that led to the roof.

"Himself," Naruto tilted his head to the side at Kiba's blush, "he said that when school was over for the both of us, that we could have the family that I've wanted with him," Kiba explained, "his parents are ok with us being together but want us to wait until I'm done with high school before we make my dream come true."

"Wait..." Naruto stopped in the middle of the hall, shock on his face, "you're engaged?" Kiba nodded, "Where's the ring?" Naruto jumped him, looking for the evidence of it being true.

"Its getting sized, it was Shika's grandmother's ring," Kiba pulled Naruto off him and towards the stairs, "Now come on, I'm hungry!" Naruto grumbled before going along with Kiba, "Oh, you never answered my question: how was your break?"

Naruto dropped his head, "Horrible," Kiba looked at him with worry in his eyes, "remember Kyuubi?" Kiba nodded, "Well, he and Itachi met over the break..." Naruto looked away, "I think I'm safe from the two getting into a fight if I'm there."

Kiba moved to stand at Naruto's side, his arm going over his small shoulders, "Want to talk about it?"

~Flashback~

Itachi moved so that his back was on the armrest and pulled Naruto onto him, having his back to his chest, his arms around him with tan arms over his own pale ones. Naruto had just finished cooking the food, still thanking Itachi for bringing pies and some wine; Tsunade was walking to and from the closet with small boxes of carefully wrapped china for special occasions. Placing them on the table -after finding enough chair for everyone- and setting up the table with the ham and side dishes, she would look at the two teens smiling as she did so. Naruto would talk to Itachi about something from school or random stuff; when Itachi would be combing Naruto's hair with his fingers, Naruto would smile and lean in, liking the attention he was receiving from the elder Uchiha. Jiraiya would come in every few minutes with another wrapped gift from his and Tsunade's room, placing it against the wall next to the tv under the poster of a christmas tree that Naruto had made when he was five.

Feeling his pocket vibrate, Itachi sighed before reaching for it; when he realized what was over it, he couldn't help but pinch the butt to grab his phone. Naruto yelped and jumped up, rubbing where he was pinched, his face red with either anger or embarrassment. "Excuse me," Itachi kissed Naruto on the lips before sliding from under him and walking to his room, "Hello?"

Huffing, Naruto dropped himself on the couch, his attention being little on Billy and Mandy Saving Christmas; his mind on Itachi, he wondered who was calling him. His parents and Sasuke -it had shocked Naruto too- knew that Itachi would be with him for Christmas Day since he was with them on Christmas Eve. "Oi, brat!" Naruto snapped his head up to look at Tsunade, "Get the door will ya'!" she yelled before heading into the kitchen, putting the final touches on the table.

"'Kay!" Getting up, Naruto didn't bother looking through the window to see who it was, he still wondered about the call. Opening the door, Naruto was pulled into a tight hug that pushed out all the oxygen in his body. "Wha-!"

"Oh I've missed you! My dear little brother! My baby brother! My virgin baby brother!" Kyuubi spun them around in his hug, "Did you miss me? Did ya'? Did you miss your big brother? I know you did!" Kyuubi squeezed Naruto in his arms before letting go when he saw a new face in the house.

Itachi snapped his phone close when seeing Naruto in some other man's arms; "You are?" Itachi's voice was like ice, hating someone touching what belonged to him.

"Kyuubi," the red head smirked, "Itachi correct?" Naruto looked up from the floor, watching the two interact. Immediately feeling the tension between them.

"Umm," Naruto quickly got up, thanking Itachi with a smile at the offered hand, "Kyuubi, this is Itachi, my boyfriend." Kyuubi nodded, "Ita," Kyuubi raised an eyebrow, "this is Kyuubi, my elder brother."

"Nice to meet you." Itachi held out his free hand, his other pulling Naruto his side with him wrapped in his arm.

"Likewise." Kyuubi shook his hand; with them shaking hands, Naruto noticed that they were fighting, who would let go first when the grip was too tight.

"Brats," Tsunade called from the dining room, "dinner is ready; brat, go get Jiraiya." All three knew that she was talking to Naruto, being her one and true brat.

"The two of you can come and sit." Pulling away from the "hand shake", Itachi headed for his seat, already knowing where he and Naruto sit. Kyuubi glared at Itachi before sitting across from him. "Uchiha, can you serve the brat?"

"Of course."

"Uchiha?" Kyuubi forged a gasp, "What is an Uchiha doing here? Is it tradition to spend Christmas Day with family?"

"Yes," Itachi said, "and I am." Grabbing Naruto's fine china, Itachi filled it with a majority of ham -knowing that Naruto had been crazy for some- with a small pile of green bean casserole on the side and a spoonful of mashed potatoes with a little river of gravy over it.

"How do you figure that? Are you engaged to Naruto?" Kyuubi watched as Itachi moved around the table, not once making a sound on the old creaky floors.

"I am not," Itachi answered, "I was asked to come here by you," Itachi placed Naruto's plate down before getting his own and repeating the same process, "to represent myself as Naruto's boyfriend."

"Ah," Kyuubi watched as Itachi -with his plate filled- sat down before getting up and placing a couple of slices of ham and a scoop or two of green beans. Both men turned at the sound of Naruto dragging Jiraiya coming towards them, seeing the younger pushing the elder man from behind who was refusing to walk. "Pervert," Kyuubi greeted him, a smile on his face when the man's face bloomed into a smile.

"Kyu," Jiraiya pulled him into a hug, "it's been too long!"

Kyuubi laughed at the man, returning the hug, "Five years is too long, eh?"

"Too long," Jiraiya chuckled, "My, we haven't seen you since the day you left for college!"

Naruto smiled in the background, happy that Kyuubi was back at home with them; looking at the table, he smiled at Itachi when he saw the peaceful look in his face. Walking around them, Naruto went and sat down next to Itachi, silently thanking him for getting his food. Tsunade came out of the kitchen with cups in her hands, setting them down at each of the plates, making sure that everything that was needed was at the table.

The table was filled with the food that Tsunade and Jiraiya could buy that Naruto knew how to make and cook, not wanting to spend extra money if it wasn't going to come out right. In the center sat the ham that could feed twenty people, with pineapple slices laying on it as it was covered in a sweet glaze. Next to it, were the mash potatoes and green beans that had more than enough for thirds for everyone; and in the fridge, the two pies and bottle of the best wine Itachi could find, waiting to be eaten for dessert. Jiraiya and Tsunade sat at the two ends of the table with Naruto and Itachi sitting together on one side and Kyuubi sitting across from them.

After everyone had taken their seats, their plates filled with Naruto's cooking; Kyuubi looked up to Naruto seeing him pick at the green beans on his plate, glaring at Itachi. "Eat it, it won't harm you." Itachi looked at Naruto, a smirk on his face when he took a break to take a sip of his drink.
Naruto huffed, "You don't know that..."

Kyuubi smirked, resting his head on his hand on the table, catching Naruto's attention; "Do you want me to feed you?" Naruto blushed, "Like how I did when we were younger? You want it to be the train or the airplane?"

Naruto glared at Kyuubi, not believing that he was embarrassing him in front of Itachi; "Shut up," Naruto hissed, not wanting to look at Itachi who was choking on his drink, giving both Uzumakis strange looks.

"But its true~!" Kyuubi chuckled, wanting to see Naruto blow up in front of Itachi -seeing how Itachi was reacting to an upset Naruto- for the first time. Opening his mouth to speak of another embarrassing moment, Kyuubi was kicked by the two adults who were eating and glaring at him, giving him a warning look. "Fine," Kyuubi continued to eat, looking up at Itachi -after calming down, "I guess I'll start with the questions then." Itachi and Naruto looked at him in surprise, Itachi not being as shocked as Naruto, he knew it was going to happen eventually just later in the evening. "Care to tell me about yourself, Uchiha?"

Itachi grabbed his napkin and wiped his mouth clean, his back straight and against the back of the chair; "What would you like to know, Uzumaki?" Naruto looked at Itachi with worry but kept eating, not knowing what to do or say to get his brother to approve of him.

"How about...where you stand in school?" Kyuubi ate a small forkful of ham, not wanting his mouth to be full while talking to the boy to claimed his younger brother. 'I should have taken him with me after I found a job and place! Dammit!'

"I'm a senior in school, number one in the senior class rank," Itachi answered coolly.

"Hmmm, and what about in life?" Kyuubi finished off the last of ham on his plate.

"My father is arranging for my take over -in a few years time- of his seat as CEO of Uchiha Industries."

"Oh? Everything is already planned out?" Kyuubi started on his green beans, cutting them to a smaller size.

"Not by choice; it was either my younger brother, Sasuke, or I to take over the family company. I doubt that my little brother can fill in the needed requirements." Itachi shook his head before continuing, "During my college years, I will be taking business classes as well as economics before going to work under my father."

"I thought you said that you were going to take different classes?" Naruto asked, "You said that you wanted to take history and art classes..."

"I am, as long as I'm in the other two classes I take on whatever I wish. It was a deal father had made with mother for me." Itachi smiled at Naruto, glad that he remembered what he really wishes to learn. Naruto smiled in return before picking at the green beans, making a face when he ate them slowly.
Kyuubi watched the interaction between the two, "Have you been in a relationship before, Uchiha?" Kyuubi sighed, he had a feeling that they were too far into each other to be pulled apart.

Itachi turned back to Kyuubi, sensing the change in his voice; "Yes...several." Kyuubi raised an eyebrow, Itachi looked away in shame. "They were for passing the time, none were serious." Itachi hesitated.

"Passing the time?" Itachi had everyone's attention, Naruto not looking at him in shock -since he knew about Itachi's past relationships- but with wonder.
Itachi sighed, cursing himself before giving an explanation; "The people who I went out with didn't really care for a relationship that I share with Naruto, it was just for the sex." Jiraiya smirked, Tsunade and Kyuubi were growing a glare towards Itachi. "I would end it after a month each time; how I feel for Naruto is nothing like that." Itachi turned to Naruto, the boy had stopped eating, "Naruto is the one that I want more than anything."

Tsunade leaned forward and placed her elbows on the table, linking her hands together before resting her chin on them. "How do we know that you won't do the same to Naruto later on?" Itachi and Naruto looked at her with a confused look, "How do you know that he won't leave you after having sex with him, Naruto?"

Naruto looked down to his lap, fiddling with the hem of his shirt; "Itachi and I came close to...g-g-going a-all the w-way," Naruto stuttered, his face becoming red hot as he held their attention. "Itachi promised that he'll wait for me when I'm ready..."

"You're still a virgin?" Kyuubi asked, ready to jump over the table Naruto gave a negative answer. Naruto nodded, not wanting to say another word about their -lack of a- sex life. "Really? You're going to wait? I find that hard to believe when you admitted to being busy in bed with people for a month."

Itachi glared at Kyuubi, "Naruto is very precious to me, I won't do something that he's not ready for."

Kyuubi returned the glare; Tsunade, Jiraiya and Naruto could see electricity crackle between the two. Before something happened, Jiraiya spoke up; "Well, as long as Itachi cares for Naruto, then you have my ok -even though you've been going out for nearly four months..." he chuckled at Kyuubi's twitching eye, "Let's finish this delicious dinner that the brat made before getting to those gifts, eh?" Tsunade nodded in agreement, sighing when she remembered about the wine in the fridge. The rest of dinner was tense, mainly between Itachi and Kyuubi; the air was occasionally filled with little talk about things wanting to be done or plans for the coming year. After dinner, Naruto had pulled out the pies from the fridge while Tsunade grabbed the bottle, everyone sat in the living room, staring -or glaring- at one another.

Naruto came out with slices of pie for everyone as Tsunade gave a plastic glass to everyone -but Naruto, having to drink apple cider instead- filled half way of champagne. Jiraiya and Naruto quickly ate their slices before passing out the gifts out; Naruto asked Itachi what the champagne tasted like, Itachi -instead of answering- gave him his cup. Kyuubi glared at the man, shaking his head for giving Naruto wine; Naruto took a sip of it before making a face at the taste, he demanded how he drank the stuff. Itachi chuckled, saying that you don't smell it, just drink it.

~Present~

Naruto and Kiba made it to the top of the stairs, seeing all their friends gathered together. In the middle of the somewhat circle, sat the heater that was on high; Gaara grumbling how cold it even though he was wearing a thick jacket on and Neji had his arms around him. Gaara rubbed his stomach, a smile on his face when the baby kicked his hand; Neji and Gaara smiled, wishing that then next two months would pass quickly, wanting to hold their little girl. Kiba nearly ran from Naruto's side to sit on the sleeping boy's lap, Shikamaru -not opening his eyes- wrapped his arms around Kiba, pulling him to lay against him. Kiba slowly drifted off to a light nap in his fiance's arms, smiling as he did so.

Shino was talking to Lee about insects, their life cycles, mating seasons, when's the best time to see some or catch them. Next to them sat Sai and Sasuke, flirting with one another; kicking, poking, joking with the other. Between them was a bento that was empty with two chopsticks neatly placed in it and their hands linked together. Since last December, Naruto figured out that Sasuke was trying to get Sai jealous -it worked- because he had broken up with him before the last class had ended. Sasuke told Naruto that they've been on and off, but the make up sex was amazing, so it was okay a few hours to a day later. Naruto shook his head when the two started to lean towards each other, looking for Itachi in the group.

Itachi was spotted across from the making out couple, glaring at Sai who had his hands somewhere they shouldn't be. Naruto skipped to his side, giggling when Itachi's eye was twitching in anger; hearing the familiar laugh, Itachi snapped his head to the side, smiling at Naruto. Itachi picked Naruto up and placed him on his lap, legs on either side of him, their noses touching. "Hello," Itachi kissed Naruto lightly on the lips.

Naruto giggled in happiness, "Hi," he wrapped his arms around Itachi neck, pulling him close, wanting another kiss. When given the kiss, Naruto deepened it, wanting to feel the lips that he's craved all morning; Naruto didn't care that Itachi was a playboy in the past, he didn't care that they might not stay together after Naruto gives himself to Itachi, all that mattered was the moments that they were sharing together. One like this, ignoring everything and one around them, wanting to feel one another; Naruto pulled away, his mind made up. Naruto pulled away from the kiss, catching Itachi's attention since Naruto wouldn't do that unless he wanted to say something important.

"I think I'm ready..."

Soooooo I kinda messed up on the whole dinner on Christmas Day, I was trying to make it awkward but...I've never been in that kind of situation before so...I was guessing the whole time :c but as long as you have the idea of what was going on is good so yeah.

Anyway, I hope that you like this chapter -since its not the 7 parts of chapter 4 (thank kami)- the next chapter is going to be similar to the orginal but the beginning will be different to connect to this chapter. But, yaoi is finally going to be writen down!

Please review~!
