Here is another chappie!

Hmm, I do hope you are enjoying

Ja Ne, Anubis









Sasuke woke and looked around. Yukiko was not in the room. “Yukiko?” he called.

“In the kitchen,” she called.

The raven walked to the kitchen and smiled. Yukiko was busy packing a basket of food. “What is this for?” he asked.

“Naruto and Itachi,” she said, “That hospital food cannot taste that great and Itachi would do better with home cooked meals!”

Sasuke crossed the floor quickly and threw his arms around his wife. She looked at him, startled. “What is wrong?” she asked.

“Thank you,” he whispered, “I love you.”

Yukiko grinned. “It is nothing, Itachi is your brother, so he is my family.”

Sasuke nodded. “Did you think on what we may do to help them?”

Yukiko nodded. “I am strong enough to lift Itachi,” she said, “I was trained as a nin, just as you were… so, I can take care of him when you or Naruto have a mission.”

Sasuke opened his mouth to speak, but she just waved her hand. “I will also have my younger brother to help,” she continued, “Remember, he is coming to stay with us?”

Confused, Sasuke shook his head. “I have been busy though, and I am sorry.”

Yukiko laughed. “No problem, I understand,” she said, “My father was just as bad, but, part of the territory.”

“I am all scattered right now,” Sasuke said, “to much happened at one time.”

Yukiko paused in her packing and looked at him. “Sasuke, don’t worry about the past, look towards the future,” she said, “Itachi is still your brother and he needs you now, he has tried to hold it all together for you, alone, now, he needs us to hold it for him.”

“You are right,” he said, “What would I do without you?”

Yukiko laughed. “Who knows?” she said, “Come on, let’s go, I want to meet my brother.”

Sasuke smiled and nodded, picking up the basket, then led her out of the house.





Itachi relaxed into Naruto’s embrace, dozing. He could feel the other’s heartbeat, breathing, it was enough to make him want to fall back to sleep. “Itachi?”

“Hn?”

“How are you feeling?”

“Decent,” Itachi answered, “Better than last week.”

Naruto smiled. “Good,” he said.

Itachi was about to speak again, when there was a knock at the door. Naruto grinned. “It’s Sasuke and Yukiko,” he said.

Black eyes closed and the elder Uchiha sank down under his blankets. “Itachi, what is wrong?” Naruto asked.

“I … I can’t” he mumbled, “Please, make them leave.”

“You know Sasuke is not going to like that,” Naruto said, standing.

“Don’t care.”

“Bah!”

Sasuke cracked the door open and peaked in. “Naruto?” he said.

Naruto walked to the door and sighed. “He is being difficult,” he said, “Come on in, though.”

Sasuke nodded and looked at Yukiko. “Do you want to wait out here?” he asked.

She shook her head. “I will be fine, but, if I upset him, then I will leave.”

Naruto smiled. “Thank you,” he said.

They walked in, Naruto closing the door behind them. Itachi ignored them, his head covered by blankets. “Itachi, quit it,” Sasuke said, “You are older than me.”

“Hn.”

“Itachi,” Yukiko said, “I was hoping to meet you face to face, I brought some food for you and Naruto.”

Itachi shifted a little and sat up. “Why?”

Yukiko smiled. “You are my brother as well,” she said, “I am Yukiko, Sasuke’s wife.”

“Nice to meet you,” Itachi said softly, sitting up slowly.

She nodded. “Here,” she said, “You look like you need a home cooked meal.”

Naruto took the basket and looked in. “Ohhh YES!!!” he laughed, “Oh, Yukiko, you are my favorite lady right now!”

Sasuke rolled his eyes. “Yes, Naruto, you love her cooking.”

Black eyes focused on the basket and Itachi leaned forward. “It smells good,” he said, “What is in there?”

“Tuna sushi, ramen, rolls, dango… all sorts of yummy homemade food!” Naruto exclaimed.

“Can you make me a plate?”

Yukiko took the basket from Naruto and pulled two plates out. Sasuke sat in a chair. “Did you bring drinks?” he asked.

“Of course,” she answered, “Naruto’s favorite and something easy on the stomach for Itachi.”

“Ahhh, food, wonderful, delicious, real food,” Naruto moaned.

Sasuke and Yukiko laughed. “Is the food really that bad?”

Itachi shook his head. “Not really,” he said, “Much better than what I am used to.”

Naruto gasped and began to jump around, waving his arms. “But, but, but, it is sooo bland and they never ever bring me ramen!”

“Ummm, dumbass, you can leave and go get food,” Sasuke said, “I am pretty sure Itachi would want a break from you occasionally.”

Itachi laughed softly, hiding his smile with a hand. Yukiko giggled and shook her head. Naruto glared at Sasuke. “Oi, asshole, “ he said, “Itachi likes having me here!”

“Umm, dobe, I said he may like to have a break,” Sasuke said slowly.

Yukiko sighed. “No fighting now, please?” she said, “We are in a hospital.”

There was a knock on the door and Sakura poked her head in. “The Hokage is ready to see you,” she said.

Naruto smiled. “Good, I want to take Itachi home.”

She grinned. “Good, because he may be released today, if you can work out a good plan for him.”

Itachi looked at Sasuke and then at Naruto worriedly. “We have not even spoken about it,” he said, “I don’t want to stay here any longer.”

Yukiko sat on the bed beside Itachi. “Sasuke and I have come up with a plan,” she said, “I am sure that Naruto will agree, but, it is best if we discuss it with the Hokage as well.”

Shikamaru walked in, yawning and nodded his head. Sasuke rolled his eyes and grinned at Naruto.

“Well, Itachi, seems that you are well enough to leave the hospital,” Shikamaru said.

Itachi bowed his head. “Yes,” he said softly.

“Ok,” the Hokage sighed, “Let’s get down to business, Itachi, since I did pardon you, due to the evidence we found, I do have to announce that you are back in the village, since we kept you under lock and key when you first got here.”

Disbelief shown in black eyes. “I was pardoned?”

Naruto grinned. “Ya, about 6 months ago,” he said, “Right after Sasuke came back to the village with Yukiko.”

Itachi stared at Sasuke. “You were all right with this?” he asked.

Sasuke shrugged. “Honestly, I was ready to put this all behind me,” he said, “I wanted to be a ninja again, to live normally.”

Naruto laid his hand on Itachi’s. Shikamaru sighed. “Ok then,” he said, “So, what have you worked out?”

Yukiko stepped forward and bowed. Shikamaru waved his hand and smiled. “No need for that,” he said.

She blushed and cleared her throat. “I am perfectly capable of caring for Itachi if Naruto is sent on a long mission,” she said, “Also, if it comes to a point where I cannot, my younger brother is going to be here to help me as well.”

Shikamaru thought for a second. “Well, that sounds like a decent arrangement,” he said, “Fine, then, we will get Itachi settled into Naruto’s home, tomorrow, I will announce his return to the village and Naruto, next week, you have an in village mission.”

“Eh?” Naruto cocked his head, “In village?”

Shikamaru rubbed the back of his head. “Yeah, you have to escort a nobleman’s daughter around, while he is here for business,” he said, “She specifically asked for you.”

“Blah,” Naruto said, “But, it is a mission and it is in the village, so, ok!”

Itachi laughed. “Naruto, you don’t need to worry about me so much,” he said, “I am pretty sure Yukiko can help me.”

Shikamaru laughed. “All righty,” he said, “I guess Sakura can get the release paper work going, and get Naruto up to speed on what Itachi is going to need… oh, I will need Itachi there for the announcement tomorrow. “

Sasuke nodded. “While Sakura gets everything ready, Yukiko and I can go to Naruto’s house and get it ready,” he said, “and I am sure that Naruto needs food in that house as well.”

The blond had the grace to look ashamed. “Ya, kinda,” he said, “But, I haven’t been there is a while.”

Shikamaru shook his head. “Mah, whatever,” he said, “Anyway, I will speak with you later, Naruto, about your mission.”

Sasuke nodded. “Itachi, we will see you in a bit.”

“Eat that food, while you are waiting,” Yukiko said, “Looks like I will have more people to cook for.”

Itachi raised his hand and went to speak, before Yukiko cut him off. “Say nothing, Naruto can’t cook and you will not be able to for a while,” she said, “We live close enough to each other that it will not be a problem.”

“But…”

Sasuke shook his head. “You won’t win,” he said, “She does what she wants.”

Naruto laughed. “Ya, she rules!”

Itachi sighed and nodded. Shikamaru nodded his head and waved. “Well, I am off,” he said, “Much paper work to ignore and hide from.”

Sakura rolled her eyes and followed Shikamaru out. Naruto laughed. “Well, dobe, give me the keys to your house,” Sasuke said, “So we can clean it up, I don’t want my brother getting sick because you can’t clean.”

Naruto sat back and crossed his arms. Itachi shook his head. “Don’t worry, Naruto,” he said, “I will be able to help soon enough.”

Grumbling about arrogant bastards, Naruto handed Sasuke the keys to his house. Yukiko giggled behind her hand, then nodded to Naruto and Itachi. “We will be back in a bit,” she said, “How bad is your house, Naruto?”

“Eh, heheheheh.’

“Never mind.”
