Chapter 7

Naruto was having a small break between lessons and was munching on a cookie while looking at the
note in his hand. A smile secure on his face.

He thought back to this morning when he had woken up in his bed, alone, feeling disappointed. He remembered how he had sat on Itachi’s lap feeling warm and safe in his embrace.

The blonde had gotten up, took a shower, got dressed, then went to the kitchen to make himself some
coffee. That’s when he found the note he was currently smiling about. He read it again:

Naru-koi
I hope you slept well.
I am sorry for leaving like this,
but seeing you so peacefully asleep
I could not bring myself to wake you up.

Have a good day koi.
Itachi.

He had decided to surprise Itachi with a picnic in the park. If he could convince the raven to take the rest
of the day off, that is. Naruto had called Hinata, one of his close friends and practically begged her if she
would prepare a picnic for him and his boyfriend, which resulted in a fifteen minute interrogation on her
part about his love life. He asked her if she would be able to make sure everything was ready for them at
two p.m.

He put the note back in his pocket and got ready for his last student for the day, after that he would be
off to abduct his boyfriend for the rest of the day.

Sasuke didn’t know what he should think or feel. He was happy his aniki had found some worth pursuing.
He really wanted Itachi to be happy, but he didn’t want to loose him. What if the guy would come
between them? What if it was another gold-digger?

Itachi had dated only once before. Itachi had been so in love that he had proposed. Only the woman
turned out to be nothing more than a gold digger. When Itachi found out, his heart was torn to pieces.
He couldn’t bare to see Itachi’s heart be broken again. Sasuke cursed inwardly at the women that had
betrayed his brother.

The man walked over to his bookcase and took out the family picture that was made the night Itachi had
introduced his fiancé. He remembered how happy and proud Itachi was showing her off to the family.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fifteen year old Uchiha Sasuke was finishing his attire for the introduction diner. He was a bit nervous
about meeting the woman who Itachi had chosen to marry. He really wanted to make a good impression.

The doorbell rang and just a few minutes later his mother called him downstairs for the formal
introduction. He looked himself over one more time in the mirror on the way out. Heading down the stairs
he could hear his brother’s voice.

He walked into the hall and glanced over at the happy couple. He looked the woman over. She had long
bright red hair, eyes like bright green emeralds the shape of almonds and her lips were a soft pink, just
glossed lightly. Her build was slender, but not frail.

Even though on the outside she seemed perfect, there was something about her that gave Sasuke an
eerie feeling.

“Ah we’re all here now,” his mother said as she saw Sasuke walk in. “Let us go to the parlor to get
acquainted before dinner is served.” They all followed after her into the parlor and took seats on
the couches and armchairs.

“Father, mother, Sasuke, I would like you to meet Kitsuna Kyuubi, my fiancé, ” Itachi introduced her,
meanwhile sending her a reassuring smile.

“Welkom Kyuubi-san. We are pleased to meet you. I am Fugaku and these are my wife Mikoto and
youngest son Sasuke,” the eldest of the Uchiha family said.

“I’m honored to meet you,” Kyuubi replied bowing her head.

“Please don’t be so formal dear. We like to think of you as family, so you can just call us by our names,”
Mikoto reassured the young woman.

“Thank you for your warm welcome, Fugaku-sama, Mikoto-sama, Sasuke-kun,” Kyuubi replied smiling
warmly at them all.

The maid came to inform them that dinner was ready to be served and they all went to the dining room.

The dinner was spent in a casual and relaxed atmosphere and all could see how much Itachi adored his Kyuu-chan.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Sasuke put the picture back in its place and walked out his room. He cursed again, he really hated that
woman for what she did to their family.

On the top floor of the main office of Uchiha Security & Investigations Itachi was sitting at his desk,
reading the latest report on one of their high profile cases. Even though he didn’t do ‘fieldwork’ anymore
himself, he still liked to be kept informed of all ongoing cases.

The report stated that the problems their client had hired them for were now solved and after
deliberation with the assigned case manager, the decision was made to secure the estate with
surveillance equipment and then the case would be closed.

Not many people knew that the Uchiha heir was trained as a Navy Seal. His father used his connections
in the United States to get Itachi in the official Navy Seal training program. He was not allowed to go on
missions officially, but was sent out on occasion. At the age of eighteen Itachi was a fully trained Seal and
had he been an official Marine he would have been the youngest ever.

After his training he was appointed to a team working on high level cases. He did several different tasks
within the team. He had done investigations on several occasions and guarding duty, which meant
protecting important people as a bodyguard. He loved the thrill of working high profile cases, but the
guarding duty he could have lived without, mostly because the people he guarded were ungrateful
snobs, who didn’t seem to understand that cooperating with their protectors once in a while would
make it easier on all parties involved and allowed them to do their job accordingly. Itachi closed his eyes
and pinched the bridge of his nose, thinking back on all the snobs he had had to deal with.

After he finished reading the report he looked on his watch noting it was one p.m. He got up to leave for
lunch when he heard the tell tale buzz of his desk phone. He pushed the button to answer his secretary.

“Yes Sakura,” Itachi said with a sharp tone.

“Sir, there is a young man here to see you, he said it was important to speak with you in person,” Sakura
answered unmoved by his abrupt reply.

“Send him in so I can deal with this and be out for lunch afterwards,” Itachi sighed.

Only moments later there was a knock on the door, “Enter,” came the curt reply.

The door opened and he was very surprised to see Naruto walking in. With a smile adorning his face,
Naruto walked over to Itachi and pecked him on his lips. He moved his mouth closer to the raven’s ear
and whispered; “Hey Handsome,” Itachi shivered as he felt the hot breath on his ear.

“Naru-koi, what a pleasant surprise,” Itachi said in a velvety voice that made Naruto week in the knees.

“I came to kidnap you and keep you to myself for the rest of the day,” Naruto said with a grin plastered
on his face so wide it reached deep in his eyes.

“Well in that case I’ll have to sneak a message to my secretary, informing her of my abduction,” Itachi smirked.

Naruto leaned over and gave Itachi another chaste kiss. “Better make it fast, cause I’ll be dragging you
out of here soon,” before he could pull back however, Itachi had his arm wrapped around his waist and
pulled him unto his lap.

He kissed Naruto’s soft plump lips and swiped his tongue over the seam, asking for entrance and
receiving just that. The kiss was gentle at first but gained in passion very fast. Naruto broke the kiss and
got of his lap with a smile on his face. “Hurry handsome, I’m getting impatient.”

Itachi buzzed his secretary. “Yes sir,” came the curt reply.

“Sakura clear my schedule for the rest of the day. If there are any pressing matters let Kakashi take care
of them,” Itachi said his voice devoid of any emotion what so ever, but knowing exactly how his lazy and
perverted second in command was going to feel about that he smirked.

“Sir is there something wrong,” she asked concern lacing her voice.

“Well it seems I am being abducted,” he replied, his voice still emotionless.

“Excuse me sir, what do you mean? Do I need to call Kakashi?” Sakura was on the brink of hysteria when
she heard a soft chuckle.

“No Sakura. I am just fine. It was a joke. I will be gone for the rest of the day.” Now Sakura was really
going to get hysteric, her boss had just joked!? This could only mean the world was ending.

“I’ll clear your schedule and let Kakashi know that you are out,” she said as she quickly recovered from
her mini panic attack.

Naruto chuckled, “I swear I could hear her having a mental breakdown.”

Itachi chuckled and got up. He walked over to Naruto who was looking out one of the huge windows in
the office. He put his arms around him and whispered in his ear; “I’m ready to be abducted now, koi.”
Then he placed a soft kiss on Naruto’s neck.

Naruto freed himself from Itachi’s hold. He took his hand waiting to see if he would pull his hand back,
when he didn’t Naruto started walking towards the door. On the way out Itachi grabbed his jacket from
the chair and closed the door.

Sakura looked with big green eyes to the scene unfolding. She saw the office door being opened and
watch the blonde man walk out, what she saw next made her jaw drop to the floor. The young man was
holding the hand of her boss. The ever impassive Uchiha Itachi was actually smiling, not a big smile, but a
smile none the less.

She watched them walking to the private elevator witch would bring them to the private entrance only a
few people knew about. She was just thinking about how Ino would react to this piece of information,
when the stern voice of her boss sounded clearly.

“Sakura, I expect nothing but discretion,” Sakura just nodded her head and turned to look back at her
computer screen. Itachi did not miss the disappointed look.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

As they walked over to the park Naruto was silently thinking about what Itachi had said to his secretary.
´Why did he not want her to tell anyone? Is he ashamed of us? Is he afraid of what others will think of
him?’ These thoughts kept roaming in his head.

As if reading his mind Itachi stopped walking and tugged at Naruto’s hand signaling him to do the same.
Naruto turned to him keeping his head down. Itachi grabbed his chin and forced him to look at him.

“Naruto, what I said to Sakura was to keep her from gossiping,” Naruto looked at Itachi.

“Hhmm I understand, you have a reputation to uphold,” Naruto said with a sad voice.

“Yes I have. If she starts gossiping the whole company will know,” Naruto bowed his head and nodded
his understanding.

“Naruto look at me. I am not ashamed of us. I don’t care if anyone knows about us, but I will not tolerate
gossiping. They do not need to know that you make me act like a lovesick teenager, ” Naruto nodded
again, but when he looked up he was smiling.

“So what you’re saying is that you don’t want your employees to know you have a soft side as well,”
Naruto said smirking.

“That’s right, Naru-chan,” Itachi smirked when he heard Naruto’s indignant squawk to his new petname.

Itachi lowered his head and gave Naruto an innocent kiss. They resumed walking, with Naruto leading
them to his favorite field.

When they got there a blanket was already spread out on the grass underneath a tree. On it were bowls
with all kinds of food. There was seasoned rice, sushi and off course miso pork ramen. Hinata had also
made some fruits. She had cut up strawberries, little melon balls and grapes. Itachi looked at the sight
before him. When he looked back to Naruto he saw the expecting look in his eyes. He smiled and bowed
down to him. He brought his mouth to his ear and whispered; “Thank you Naru-koi, this is perfect.”

“I’m glad you like it,” Naruto said with a smile that could light the whole park.

“There is just one thing that bothers me,” Itachi said with a very serious face.

“What is it ?” Naruto asked, concern lacing his voice.

“Well I thought it was going to be just the two of us, but it seems my rival has made his way over here as
well. Curse you ramen!” Naruto started laughing, the sound giving Itachi shivers of pure pleasure.

After settling down on the blanket, they started eating. At times they would both reach for the same
bowl, their hands brushing each other. They talked about all kinds of things.

Itachi picked up a melon ball and put it in his mouth. Naruto watched how Itachi ate it with very much
interest. ‘Oh Kami,’ Naruto was having a hard time concentrating on anything else.

Itachi watched with amusement how his koi was looking at him. He got a mischievous glint in his eyes.
Picking up another melon ball, he leaned forward and put against Naruto’s lips.

‘You want to play. Okay I’ll play,’ Naruto thought getting a little mischievous himself. He darted out
the tip of his tongue to lick the little ball. Itachi let it slide over his lips making them glisten with the melon
juice. Naruto licked his lips seductively.

Itachi slid the ball over his lips again, but this time he licked Naruto’s lips himself. After he was done he
took the melon ball between his own lips. He looked at Naruto, his eyes challenging him to ‘come and
get it’. And of course Naruto came to get it, but Itachi wasn’t about to just give it to him.

Naruto closed his lips around the protruding piece of fruit, touching Itachi’s lips. They both nibbled on
the little ball till they were in full lip lock. It was a sweet kiss, neither one attempting to gain dominance.

“That was delicious Naru,” Itachi smirked knowing that Naruto would understand he meant both the
picnic and their little game. “Did you make all these things yourself?” Naruto started blushing and
rubbed the back of neck.

“Eehh he he, no my friend Hinata did. She is studying to be a cook,” Naruto explained to Itachi.

After cleaning up, Itachi settled himself with his back against the tree. Naruto was about to sit down
opposite from him, when Itachi grabbed his arm and pulled him down between his legs. He maneuvered
Naruto so he was sitting with his back against his chest.

The blonde leaned his head against his shoulder and closed his eyes, Itachi immediately wrapped his
arms around the blonde. They sat like that for quite sometime, without saying a word, just enjoying each other.

“I wish we could stay like this forever,” Naruto sighed after some time.

“Me too koi, but unfortunately life isn’t going to allow us that luxury,” Itachi said, then kissing his temple.

“I think we should get going, it’s getting dark already,” Naruto got up and brushed the dust from his
slacks. Itachi got up as well and did the same.

“And where would you like to take your hostage next?” Itachi asked smirking.

“Hhmm, let’s see. Preferably somewhere isolated, like say a deserted island.” Naruto said grinning like a madman.

“I see and what would you do to me once we are there?” Itachi grabbed Naruto’s hand and twirled him
around so he was in his arms. Naruto put his arms around his neck and brought his mouth next to Itachi’s ear.

“I would tie you to the bed in my little shag on the beach. I would tear the clothing of your body, then I
would do all kinds of naughty things to and with you,” Itachi trembled hearing the whispered words. The
images the words called to his mind, made him want to ravish his blonde right there and then.

“Kami Naruto, have you any idea what you do to me. I am having enough trouble containing myself as it
is and then you go and say things like that,” Itachi said groaning.

“Then stop containing yourself,” Naruto replied having a hard time himself.

“I don’t want to rush things. I don’t want you to think I just want you for some fun,” Naruto looked in the
ravens eyes and his breath caught seeing all the emotions there.

Naruto brought his mouth up as an open invitation to Itachi, who in turn took it and kissed the blonde.
He licked his bottom lip asking for entrance. Naruto complied immediately opening his mouth and
rubbed his tongue against the ravens. They broke the kiss and Naruto slipped out of Itachi’s embrace.

He started gathering their things. Itachi soon joined in, throwing away all the disposables. When they
were finished packing the basket Itachi took it from Naruto, then they started walking to Naruto’s apartment.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

When they got to the apartment, Itachi put the basket in the kitchen. Naruto started to unpack it and
wash the dishes. Itachi grabbed a dishcloth and dried them of.

After they finished the dishes Naruto made them some coffee. They went to the living room where
Naruto plopped on the couch after putting down his mug. Itachi settled next to him and as soon as he sat
down Naruto snuggled closer to him.

They talked for hours until Naruto had once again fallen asleep, his head resting on his thigh. The raven
picked Naruto up and brought him to bed. He undressed him leaving only his boxers on. Then he got out
his phone to send a text message. He undressed himself to his silk boxers not wanting to embarrass
Naruto in the morning. He got in bed settling behind the blonde who had turned on his side.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sasuke opened his phone to read the text message he had received.

Otouto, I’m not coming home tonight. Itachi

Sasuke closed his phone, stood up and went to bed.
