Itachi smirked as he made his way down the steps. The previous night had been deathly silent with the exception of the clock that chimed hourly. It seemed that Naruto was taking the deal much more seriously than his little brother was.

He would need to fix that.

The older Uchiha made his way to the living room and cocked an eyebrow when he noticed the pile of blankets on the couch. He had a thought on what it was but he wanted to be sure. His suspicion was confirmed when he saw his brothers dark hair poking out from a black blanket. Naruto must have kicked him out last night after all.

“Sasuke.” He called softly.

The pile of blankets didn’t stir and he decided to let his brother sleep. He knew that Sasuke wasn’t a morning person and he was in no mood to deal with an irate brother. Instead, he walked to the kitchen, started the coffee maker and sat down to read the paper. Halfway through his second cup of coffee, the sound of feet entering the kitchen drew his attention to the arched doorway.

“Morning bastard.”

“Uzumaki.”

The blonde-haired person grunted as he dropped some bread into the toaster. It was silent for a while as the bread toasted, before Naruto spoke up.

“Where’s Sasuke?”

“On the couch.”

Naruto turned to him, “You didn’t wake him up?”

Itachi shook his head, “Not my responsibility. You kicked him out last night, not me.”

The toast popped up, making Naruto jump. He turned around and grabbed the food, then proceeded to cover it with butter and jam. He took a large bite and hummed in satisfaction. Itachi had set a limit on how much ramen could stay in the house and suggested the Naruto look toward different foods to eat during his stay. The blond wasn’t happy at first, but he soon found that he could enjoy other foods, although ramen would always be his favorite.

He quickly devoured the two pieces of toast before placing some more in, then headed out to the living room. He knew that Sasuke wasn’t a morning person and putting him on the couch last night, would make waking him harder.

“Teme, wake up.” He said.

There was no response.

He prodded his face, but Sasuke just turned his head away and Naruto let out a huff before climbing on top of him. He slipped his hands under the covers and ran his fingers up the raven’s side. Beneath him, Sasuke started to squirm as Naruto hit his ticklish spot.

Sasuke’s eyes fluttered open and they took in the blurry shape of Naruto above him. He fought to keep the grin off his face as his mind quickly jumped to the gutter. He thought he knew what Naruto wanted.

He reached up and grabbed the blond’s forearms, then ground his hips against Naruto's, earning a sharp intake from the other male.

"I didn't think you'd be up for a round so early in the morning dobe."

Naruto locked his eyes with Sasuke's before the raven bucked his hips up again. Naruto sucked in a sharp breath and was about to respond, but the sound of the toaster going off and Itachi calling his name snapped his mind back to reality. He let out a yelp and pushed himself off Sasuke, tumbling over the edge of the couch in the process.

He hissed in pain as his head connected with the ground before he stood up. "You need to get ready." He said, giving him a quick kiss.

Sasuke grunted before tossing the blankets off and stretched out the kinks in his neck. Despite the fact that Naruto was a messy sleeper (and sometimes hogged the blankets), he still missed sleeping next to him last night, and he wasn't in the mood to end up on the couch again. He could understand Naruto's concern about losing against Itachi.

After all, Sasuke didn't want anyone staring at his blond. Especially in a Speedo.

However, Sasuke was certain that he could figure a way out of this mess. All contracts had loopholes in them; after all, even Itachi wasn’t perfect.

Itachi looked at the small group of people in front of him.

“I have a special assignment for you;” he said, “As of yesterday, my little brother and his blond have decided to give up something for lent.”

Deidara snickered, “Did they have a choice?”

“No, and I want you all to make sure that they stick with this deal.”

“We’re being assigned to fucking baby-sit?” Hidan snapped.

Itachi smirked, “Somehow, I think that you’ll find this ‘babysitting’ job very interesting. They both agreed to give up their sex life.” He handed them a folder containing the copies of the contracts he had written up the other day.

A silence fell over the office as the group read over the papers before someone started to snicker. The snicker slowly traveled around the group before someone spoke up. “Itachi you’re evil.” Kisame said, “I don’t think they’ll be able to pull this off.”

“Exactly, which is why I want you to make sure they don’t break this contract; or at least not yet.”

“You have a plan.” Sasori said.

Itachi nodded, “You read the consequences, and I want to make sure they remember them.”

“Do we get to blackmail them?” Deidara asked.

The older Uchiha reached into his wallet and pulled out some bills and a slip of paper. “These are their measurements. Go downtown and get their outfits for me, be back before they return from lunch.”

“Come on Sasori, it’ll be like a different form of art, un. Damn it, it slipped.”

Sasori allowed himself to be pulled out by the energetic blond, while the others went back to work. Kisame grinned at Itachi before he left, “You have something planned, don’t you?”

“Always.”

Naruto pushed away from his desk, saving the file one last time before stretching in his chair. His stomach growled at him and he was ready for lunch with Sasuke. The raven had been acting strange that morning after they had gotten to work, muttering something about a loophole. He had shaken it off, figuring it had something to do with lack of sleep. Or sex. But he didn’t think about the problem for too long; instead, he turned his attention to trying to figure out how Itachi had found out about the whole lent thing, but he couldn’t think of anyone who celebrated the religion. Let alone tell the elder about it.

He opened Sasuke’s door and found the raven looking over some paperwork.

“Watcha doing?” he asked, leaning over the desk.

“Itachi has to have a loophole in this contract.”

Naruto pouted, “Come on Sasuke, its lunch time, take a break for a while.” He pushed the papers aside and grabbed the pale hand, “It’s time for food.”

“Fine.”

They headed out of the building towards the nearest deli while two heads poked around the corner.

“Sharky, this is Clay; targets have left the building.”

“What the hell did you call me?”

A calm voice interrupted over the radio, “Kisame, just watch them while we get this stuff up to their offices.”

“I am not Sharky.”

The device crackled for a moment before a cheerful voice responded, “How about fish bait?”

“No!”

A second later, a figure stole out of the building and entered the deli, while two other figures entered the tall building across the street.

“Itachi, we got them!” Deidara sang out, dropping the bags on the desk.

“If I can ask, how did you even get their measurements?” Sasori asked as Deidara started to pull out the items for Itachi to look at.

“Sakura gave me Sasuke’s and Sasuke had Naruto’s written down already.” Itachi answered calmly.

Sasori raised an eyebrow, “I wouldn’t peg Sasuke as the dress up kind.” He stated while Deidara snorted with laughter.

“Puppet and Clay Face, targets are getting ready to come back.”

“No, it’s Clay, not Clay Face, un!”

Sasori sighed and dragged the pouting Deidara out of the room, “Come on, we have a job to do.”

Sasuke pushed Naruto against the desk and ground against him, while smashing his lips against the blonds rosy lips. Naruto let out a mew and bucked back before his mind caught up and he tried to reason with the Uchiha.

“Sasuke, we can’t.” He let out a hiss, “Itachi, remember.”

The raven snorted, “No one else is in here dobe, just keep your voice down. Besides, we do this almost everyday.”

He brought his lips down to the tanned neck and carefully nipped at the skin. Naruto tilted his head back to allow Sasuke more space as the Uchiha started to move down his neck, when his eyes widened.

Tacked to the wall across from his desk, was the pink Speedo, along with a note, ‘We’re watching you Blondie.”

He felt Sasuke slip his hand inside his pants and he let out a yelp before pushing away from Sasuke.

“Naruto, he’s not going to find out.” Sasuke snapped.

Naruto pointed at the wall where the offending article of clothing hung, “Hell no! I’m not wearing that.” He turned to face Sasuke, “I think he’s serious about this.”

Sasuke’s face paled a little more as he crossed the room and stalked down the hallway. He wrenched the door open and felt his eyebrow twitch when he saw the black and white maid outfit. It was spread out over the chair while a smile pile of cosmetics and some razors sat innocently on his desk.

“I don’t know.” Naruto said behind him, “I can kinda see you in that outfit.”

“It looks familiar.” Sasuke muttered, and then remembered that he had almost bought the same one for Naruto a few months back. Evil ideas started to prance across his brain like pixies in a field and he fought the urge to chuckle evilly.

His eyes fell on a piece of paper that sat on top of the clothing. ‘This will fit you, not Naruto, so don’t think or try it.’

Sasuke’s hand crumpled the paper, “We will find out who is behind this and when we do.”

The threat was left hanging in the air and outside the door; Deidara suppressed a shiver while Sasori just rolled his eyes.
