I know, I know... it's late... I'm sorry! Happy belated Valentine's Day all the same though.
Now, there has been some debat among my readers as to this story and the agents lack of a cover. Originally I was going to explain the agencies policies when the truth came out to Itachi and Sasuke, but since everyone seems so interested I'm putting in a brief explaination in the next chapter. (Valentine's II) Hopefully that will clear it up some, and if you don't like my reasonings, well, it's not my fault. This is a reality I wrote for the fun of it, nothing is suppose to be all that serious.
Anyway... On with the show!
Valentine's I
It was Monday morning, and Sasuke was in the foulest mood when his brother dropped him in front of the school. He had insisted on being half an hour early so he could avoid his fan club on the most evil day of the year.
It was February fourteenth, Valentine's Day.
Every year, every girl in the school would throw flowers, candy, chocolate, and all sorts of gifts at him. Each year without fail, Sasuke was mobbed by desperate girls vying for his love. His locker would be destroyed inside and out, covered in notes and decorations. Some of the braver girls would break in to his locker leaving all sorts of junk he didn't want. By the end of the day, his locker had usually fared just about as well as his person, smelling like at least fifty different types of perfume, various types of sweets and flowers.
It disgusted the Uchiha to no end, girls just couldn't take a hint, and it was the one day of the year he was cruel. Every single gift and card he received was thrown out at the end of the day, in front of everyone in the hall, a look of pure disgust on his face as he did so.
What Sasuke hadn't anticipated today was Naruto having beaten him to school. Usually the blond arrived at the same time, or just after him when Sasuke came at the usual time. But today, the day from hell, he was glad the blond was there. It was a comfort.
Watching Naruto walk towards him down the hall, Sasuke took the time to check the teen out. The blond was wearing a tight white long sleeved shirt, with semi form fitting khaki pants. For the first time, the Uchiha noticed a crystal hanging around the teens neck. It was blue, not quite as breathtaking as the Uzumaki's eyes, and it had a little green in it. It was a mystery how he had never noticed it before.
"Hey," greeted the raven, shoving his hands deep inside his pockets, taking a relaxed stance.
Naruto raised a hand in greeting. "Hey," he echoed. "Whatever you do, don't open your locker today," the blond warned. Sasuke needed to hold back a shudder at the evil smirk on the other teens face.
"Why?" Sasuke asked with a raise of his eyebrow. "What about my books?"
Naruto produced a bag from his shoulder. "Already taken care of." He shrugged as if it was nothing.
"What's wrong with my locker," the Uchiha questioned sceptically, taking the offered bag. "Or should I say, what did you do?"
"Well, you see," the older teen started, scratching his head nervously. "Neji explained that today isn't exactly your favourite holiday. So, instead of letting girls break into your locker and desecrate it, I may have made a minor modification."
Before the other could respond, Naruto took the raven by the arm, guiding him in the direction of his locker. Hiding around the corner, the two watched and waited. Before too long, a lone girl approached the raven's locker, gifts and decorations in hand. Looking around, she reached forward grabbing the handle. She immediately released the metal lock with a pained shriek.
The blond agent burst into a fit of silent giggles.
"What did you do?" Sasuke asked, his onyx eyes wide. The only reason he wasn't laughing his head off at what he had just witnessed, was because he was in shock.
"I wired a battery to it," he said nonchalantly, but the evil grin was back in full force. "So when anyone tries to touch it, they get zapped, and not just a tiny one either." It wasn't the first time Naruto had played a prank, and definitely wouldn't be the last, but this was the first in the name of protecting someone.
The raven was silently staring at the blond as if he had two head. Suddenly his expression changed to one of great joy. "That's genius!" Sasuke exclaimed gleefully. "Why the hell didn't I think of this before!"
"Because you aren't as awesome and genius as me."
"Asshole," the younger teen grumbled irritably, shoving the larger boy into the wall as he walked past. As he made his way down the hall, he smiled.
"Teme! See if I ever do anything nice for you again," Naruto called, running after the retreating raven.
Itachi was focused intently on the professor pacing at the front of the room, studiously notating word for word the lecture. Kyuubi was at his side, and like the redhead's little brother did daily, was not paying attention, as usual. Instead, the tanned agent was planning out the day in his head, he had big plans.
Itachi and Kyuubi were not officially dating. In fact, they had only gone on a few casual dates, but for the present moment in time, their relationship remained unchanged. They were friends. Itachi wasn't the only one that wanted to take it slow.
"Hey, Tachi," the tanned man whispered loudly.
"What?" Itachi's eyes didn't leave the front, his mind still focused on the front of the room.
"We're going ou,t tonight." It wasn't a question, it was a statement.
"Yeah, okay. Wait, what?" He ripped his attention away from the lecturer, Kyuubi's words only just sinking in. "Going out tonight?" he repeated, his brow furrowed in confusion. "It's Monday."
"Valentines, ring any bells?" The Uzumaki flashed a devilish smile. "Don't tell me the great Uchiha Itachi forgot the holiday of love."
"Ah..."
"You so did," laughed Kyuubi, pounding on his desk lightly. He stopped when the professor shot him a withering glare. "Oops."
A pale hand slipped, smudging Itachi's careful notation when the Uchiha chuckled. His friend sure kept things interesting.
"I'm taking you to dinner," Kyuubi continued as if he hadn't just been scolded by the teacher. "Be ready by seven, and wear something nice."
"Wear something nice?" The pale raven asked, amused by the request. His daily attire was usually above that of any of his fellow students, Kyuubi included. "Do I not usually?"
The red head chuckled quietly, eyeing the teacher wearily. It wouldn't due to get kicked out of the lecture. "I just mean you'll feel out of place in jeans."
Itachi raised an eyebrow. He wondered where Kyuubi could possibly be taking him that would have a dress code. "Seven it is." The pale hand continued the scribing of the class, only a slight waiver in the neat writing as Itachi sought to cover his anticipation of the night ahead.
"Uzumaki, see me after class please," their second period teacher requested angrily as the bell rang. "Wait in the hall Uchiha," the teacher ordered when the young Uchiha tried to wait behind for his unofficial bodyguard. It would be suicide to go anywhere on his own today, let alone stand in the hall.
"I'm fine with his staying," the blond said quickly not liking the idea of the other teen being out of his sight without Neji or Gaara around.
"I said he needs to wait in the hall!"
Shooting the raven an apologetic look, Naruto watched the Uchiha square his shoulders and march out of the room, determined to show he could take care of himself. As confidant as the pale teen tried to appear, it wasn't fooling Naruto, he could see the fear in the dark onyx eyes.
"Make it quick," the blond snapped when Sasuke had disappeared out the door.
In the hall, the fan girls were circling. Never before had they come across Sasuke alone. Within seconds he was swarmed.
He took off down the hall, desperate to escape the clawing hands, and high pitched screams. Cursing his teacher to the deepest pits of hell, he chanced a glance over his shoulder. Much to his dismay, the group was rapidly growing. He dodged students left and right, winding through the hallways, looking for an escape. Many of the girls he flew past joined in the chase, but every guy laughed at his misery.
Rounding a corner, Sasuke suddenly found a pair of hands shooting out and grabbing him, hauling him into an empty classroom. The footsteps of the many girls rushed past the doorway he had just disappeared through.
Sasuke found himself backed against a wall, his face buried in the rather hard chest pressed into him. Struggling against the strong hold, he tried to yell but his mouth was covered by a warm hand.
"Shhh..." a familiar voice chastised. "Do you want them to hear you?"
The hand was slowly removed when raven stopped his struggles. "Naruto?" the raven asked tentatively looking up to see cerulean eyes gazing down at him with concern. He suddenly became aware of just how close he was to the tanned boy, and blushed. Naruto was holding the Uchiha close, protectively, almost tenderly.
When the blond exited the classroom only three minutes after his friend had been kicked out, the younger boy had been gone. Worried, he swiftly searched the school; it hadn't been hard to find the stampeding herd of wild girls chasing his charge. Doubling back, he hid in an empty class, guessing the Uchiha would turn down that hall next. His gamble had paid off, and he nabbed the boy as he turned the corner.
A warm flush spread over pale cheeks. "How?"
"You attract quite a crowd S'uke," the blond chuckled. "You weren't hard to find."
"Oh," breathed the blushing teen. He looked down trying to hid the pink tint on his normally pale face. Taking a risk, he leaned into the broad chest, burying his face, and inhaling the scent of the gorgeous teen holding him.
Mistaking Sasuke's actions for distress, Naruto tightened his hold on the smaller boy, thinking back to the breakdown the teen had in the backseat of Kyuubi's car. "It's okay," he murmured into the soft raven hair. "You're safe now, I have you." He then remembered something important.
Suddenly the warm protective arms were gone. Stumbling slightly, Sasuke looked around wildly to find Naruto bending over his orange bag, rummaging around for something. The blond straightened up, and turned to face him, something hidden behind his back.
"You know how I talked to Neji, and he told me today is your worst nightmare." Naruto moved forward cautiously, the pale raven eyeing him suspiciously. "He told me about every girl thrusting upon you unwanted candies, chocolate and flowers. All of which you hate, but they're just too blind to see." He stopped in front of the Uchiha. "Well I thought I'd get you something that will hopefully improve your day."
A small heart shaped chocolate box was produced from behind the tanned teens back. He held it out, offering it to the other boy.
"Baka, you know I don't like sweets," Sasuke huffed, even as he was reaching out and taking the small box from the blond. He would accept anything that came from the bronze god before him, even if it was something he hated.
"Just open it S'uke," Naruto chuckled nervously. The blond didn't really know why, but he wanted to make the other teens day better if he could. He'd put a lot of thought into the present, and he hoped it paid off.
The lid was timidly removed by the raven, followed by a surprised gasped. "N-naruto?" Inside the small box was not chocolate like one would expect, but different types of tomatoes. Wide onyx eyes turned to regard his tanned friend who was awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
"There are cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, sundried tomatoes, and fruit leather made of tomatoes." He pointed to each type as he spoke. "I know you don't like sweets, so I only put one in, but this one here," he said, pointing to an oddly shaped, hard red lump with a dusting of powdered sugar. "It's a candied tomato."
Unsure of how to act, Sasuke closed the box and carefully placed it in his bag. The only time he had ever mentioned his love of the fruit was the first time they went out for coffee, the second day they had met. It was astounding that the blond had remembered.
Sasuke saw Naruto's face fall at his actions and instantly felt bad. Turning back to the blond, Sasuke wrapped his arms around the older teen, pulling him into a hug in an uncharacteristic show of gratitude.
"Thank you Naruto," he whispered, reluctantly pulling back. "No one has ever given me such a thoughtful gift before. I'm going to save it for when I'm home." He offered the surprised teen a small smile, and in return he received the most breathtaking smile he'd ever seen. Naruto's entire face lit up, his eyes sparkling with true happiness causing the raven to hold back a gasp of surprise.
The smile was real.
"Happy Valentine's Day Sasuke-kun," a whiny high pitched voice yelled down the hall causing ever male within earshot to visibly cringe. The small pink clothed form of Sakura skidded to a stop beside the Uchiha. She was brushed off at her attempt to link the raven's arm with hers. "What time will you be picking me up tonight for our date, Sasuke-kun?" she asked coyly, completely ignoring the cold glare she was receiving.
"Hn."
Beside the annoyed Uchiha, leaning against the lockers, Naruto snorted in amusement. "I'm not quite fluent in Uchiha yet," he said sweetly, pushing off the wall and moving to stand at the pale teens side, his bright blue eyes wide with mock innocence. "But I believe that means fuck off," he said, his tone equally as innocent as his expression.
Sasuke smirked, his arms crossing over his chest as he looked on smugly. "Hn."
"You're welcome bastard," the blond said with a blinding smile. He rested his elbow on the Uchiha's shoulder, leaning casually on the shorter boy.
Sasuke fought the urge to grin at Naruto's ability to translate his noncommittal grunts as he relished in the warmth radiating from the other teen. It was nice to for him to have someone that understood him, other than his brother. Even after all the years Neji had spent with the Uchiha, the raven was still a mystery to the Hyuuga.
The pinkette's smile fell as she was rejected by proxy. She turned, hiding the tears that threatened to spill over as she ran down the hall.
Ever since the blond had come to the school, Sasuke had been starting to reject everyone's advances forthright instead of ignoring them, even her. She didn't like the new kid as much as before, even if he was almost as good looking as the Uchiha; he had stolen away 'Sasuke-kun'.
"Don't you think that was a bit harsh dobe," the youngest of the two chided with mock concern. Inside he was doing a very un-Uchiha like happy dance with streamers, party balloons and fireworks. He'd never get sick of the blond fending off the masses, and making him smile, even if it was only on the inside.
"Like you actually care bastard," said Naruto, removing his arm and lacing his fingers behind his head.
The warmth was immediately missed by the younger boy, and he followed after the tanned teen. "I never did get you a present," Sasuke said thoughtfully. "You gave me a gift that for once in my life I happily accepted." He caught up to the older boy, matching the blonds stride as they headed to the car. "I know, how about we hit that restaurant you wanted to take me to. What was it called... Ichiraku's." he said as if he hadn't been obsessing about it since Naruto had given him the gift. "It's my treat, even if ramen is disgusting." It took all the Uchiha's will power to not nervously playing with anything he could get his hands on.
"Bastard!" yelled the blond, his arms flailing. "Ramen is the food of the gods!"
Ducking an incoming arm, Sasuke smirked at how easily he could rile up the other boy. "Idiot. Is that a yes then?"
The flailing and ranting stopped abruptly. "I can't," the blond said in a low whisper, looking away from the raven as if he had something to hide. "I have an appointment, and I can't miss it."
"Oh." Sasuke's felt his heart clench in his chest at the rejection. It was Valentine's Day, and his crush had a prior engagement. To the raven, it only meant one thing; a date. "That's cool," he said evenly, brushing it off as if nothing had happened. "Some other time then," he said dully.
"Yeah," the Uzumaki said brightly, oblivious to the hurt the other was trying to hide. "Let's get you home and away from your crazy fans."
Dim light filtered in through the closed blinds in the hospital room, the dull beep of Shikamaru's heart monitor the only sound in the sterile room.
Kiba sat beside the still form of Shikamaru, a pale hand tightly grasped in his own as he watched the other teen sleep. It always amazed the brunette how the Nara could sleep no matter the time, place, or circumstances.
Currently it was almost three in the afternoon, and Shikamaru had been napping since about nine when the nurse had given him a dose of his pain medication. Kiba was yet to leave the hospital, let alone the raven's side. More than once friends and family had tried to force him to leave, but he had refused.
"Nggh..."
"Hey Shika," greeted the Inuzuka with a small squeeze of the raven's hand. "Welcome back to the world of the living. How are you feeling?"
The injured teen struggled to sit up. Kiba immediately sprang into action, holding the genius gingerly as he adjusted the pillows to support him. "Careful Shika," he scolded. "You don't want to reopen..." He froze mid sentence finding his face hover about an inch away from the boy lying before him. A pink tongue darted out, moistening his lips as he took in the situation.
Two pairs of dark eyes met, feelings and emotions silently flowing between them. For days they had been dancing around their feelings, never discussing what they both knew. They were in love.
"Kiba..." the Nara whispered breathlessly, his skin warm with a healthy flush of desire.
"Shika, I..."
"Oh, just shut up and kiss me Inuzuka," the Nara growled, threading his fingers through the short brown spikes and closing the distance between them.
The kiss was anything but romantic. It was hot, and needy, but full of passion.
Before his mind could register what his body was doing, Kiba found himself clambering onto the bed, and straddling the wounded agent. Their mouths still connected, the kiss never faltering. Hands travelled over clothing, pushing and pulling in the attempt to feel smooth skin. Pulses raced, skin flushed, and breathing quickened.
The heart monitor next to the bed was going wild as the two continued to attack each other relentlessly, trying to swallow the other whole in their attempt to be closer.
"Oh god, Kiba," the Nara moaned, his nails digging into the tanned flesh as his neck was mercilessly nipped and sucked. His heart monitor continued to beep madly in time with his own racing heart.
The door was flung open, crashing into the wall noisily. A team of nurses and Tsunade burst into the room to take in the scene before them.
"You have got to be kidding me," roared the angry blond doctor. "Get off him brat," she yelled, grabbing Kiba by the scruff of the neck and throwing him off the Nara and into the wall. "He's healing! What the hell is wrong with you! Both of you!"
Kiba stumbled to his feet, clutching his head. "Hokage-sama," he slurred. "We were just..."
"I know what you were doing, Inuzuka," she snapped, waving the nurses out the door before rounding on the two young agents. "He's recovering from a major operation where we retrieved a fucking bullet from his chest! One that almost killed him I might add! With that knowledge, what do the two of you decide to do! You decide to fuck around in my hospital scaring the shit out of everyone!"
"Sorry Hokage-sama," both teens mumbled, sharing a guilty look.
A loud sigh escaped as Tsunade rubbed her eyes tiredly. "You two aren't even together," she said more to herself than anyone else. "I shouldn't have to put up with this."
Dark slitted eyes light up at her words. "Good point," Kiba said brightly. He moved back to the side of the bed, taking the pale hand in his own again. "Nara Shikamaru," he said quietly, his voice full of love and adoration. "Will you do me the great honour of being my one and only and accepting me as your boyfriend."
A large smile took over the normally bored expression of the Nara. "Yes Kiba", he said rolling his eyes at the ridiculous, but adorable show. He tugged his new boyfriend to him, their lips meeting in a chaste kiss.
"Now that we're official, Tsunade," the brunette said sweetly, turning to face the doctor. "Will you disconnect the heart monitor so we can make out freely now."
"Brat!"
TBC...
Well, that's that. I hope you all enjoyed. The next chapter will contain the date, and is mostly focusing on Kyuubi. I know some people think that Itachi and Kyuubi's relationship has developed quite fast, but Kyuubi has never felt this attraction before, it's only natural he would want to explore it.
