Chapter Fourteen - Temporary Pardon
Sasuke sat up the sound of the key turning in the door. He stood as it opened and stared icily at the man. "It's your own fault," Kotetsu muttered, holding open the door. Sasuke walked by him and obediently waited. After the door was locked once more, they headed for the classroom together, the man in back. Naruto was already there, sitting at his desk with his head buried in his hands. Izumo was sitting in the back corner of the room, the blonde's personal entourage, and glanced up with a small smile as Kotetsu joined him.
Sasuke headed back to his own corner. He had just taken a seat when the few girls already in class surrounded his desk. His dark eyes widened and he blinked in surprise, trying to process exactly what they were all saying. The questions eluded him--he heard his name over and over. Sasuke stared around the small group to the front of the room.
Naruto looked away quickly and hid his face in his arms once again. Kotetsu and Izumo exchanged glances and another smile.
Genma allowed the front legs of his chair to touch the floor and he moved the toothpick in his mouth from once side to the other. "All right. Get off of him. We have a few more things to learn before I officially stop teaching for Christmas break."
"You should have stopped last Friday," someone commented.
"Yeah, well�" Genma stood, took a seat on the edge of the desk, and began lecturing.
Sasuke sat in back, diligently writing� a note. His head was bowed over the paper and he chewed on the end of his pencil as he thought of what to say. The paper looked as though a kindergartener had written it, but he'd gotten his message across.

Naruto. I know you're taking the blame for us being "grounded", but maybe we could share it, just like that kiss the other day. I don't know what came over me, but it felt right. I'm sure you think the same thing. I have no interest in the girls here--I saw you looking--because all of my interest lies with you. I'll meet you under the mistletoe, idiot, or maybe sooner.
--Uchiha Sasuke
� � � �
Sasuke folded the paper into as small as a square as possible and pushed it to a corner of his desk; it was for Naruto and Naruto only.
Class ended at its usual time--noon--and Izumo and Kotetsu rounded up their charges. All of the adults had their eyes locked on the blonde and brunet as the boys drew nearer to each other. Naruto's movements stopped at the fingers to his, but his gaze remained locked on the books on his desk. He squeezed Sasuke's hand then pulled away, holding the paper tightly. The Uchiha glanced behind him and gave the blonde a sly smirk, then began following Kotetsu out.
"Wait a minute," Genma spoke up.
The restless man stopped and gave a soft sniffle. "What is it? He has to go back to his toom until dinner."
"I need to have a talk with Sasuke and Naruto for a moment," Genma said as he cleaned the backboard. He glanced at the men and smiled. "I'm sure you can find something to do to pass the time."
Izumo stuck his hands into his coat pockets and walked out, Kotetsu trailing behind him.
The boys took seats in the front row, a desk between them. "I have no idea why you did it," the former lawyer sighed, forehead pressed against one of his geographical posters on the wall. "But I'm going to fix things� temporarily." He turned, his features hardest. "This is only so you can do Christmas shopping. Oh. And no passing notes in class." Genma smiled sweetly as he held out his hand.
Sasuke lowered his head and blushed deeply as Naruto stood to hand over the piece of paper. They watched as it was unfolded and waited as the man began reading to himself. Genma chuckled softly and shook his head. "You're such the romantic, Sasuke. Both of you go to your bodyguards. Here." He handed the letter back to Naruto and shoved him toward the door.
The blonde lagged behind as he read the written words and a grin split his face. "Sasuke!"
"I don't wanna hear it," the brunet mumbled, yanking open the door. Kotetsu pushed away from the wall and led the way back to Sasuke's room.
Izumo followed behind his appointed charge, his eyes glancing over the paper the boy was still holding up. A smirk tugged at his lips and he stifled his laughter at the signature. He thought young love was cute.
Naruto didn't even hear the deadbolt slipping into place. He was lying on his bed and staring at the ceiling while recalling every word Sasuke had jotted down. No sooner had he closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep, he opened them halfway to someone lightly shaking him. "What?" he moaned, swatting at the hand. He rolled onto his stomach.
"You got a pardon, kid." Izumo turned the boy back over. "Open your eyes." Naruto did as he was told, squinting up at the man. He yawned loudly and tried rolling back over. Izumo sighed and dragged the blonde out of bed. "Do you want to go shopping with Sasuke or not?"
"Sasuke?" Naruto was wide-awake now. He stood on his own and wandered to the door, grabbing his jacket along the way.
Sasuke was posted against the opposite wall, arms crossed over his chest. He raised his head slowly and smirked at the boy. "Yo."
Naruto grinned but suppressed the urge to rush over and smother the ebony-haired teen in kisses. He glanced up at Izumo. "We get to go by ourselves?" His voice overflowed with excitement.
"Genma must really like you. His ass is on the line and if you're not back by ten, well�" Izumo scratched his jaw, smiling at them both. Sasuke eased sway from the wall and started for the doors. Naruto strolled after him, leaving an amused young man.
Kamizuki Izumo glanced over his shoulder at the presence of another and sighed. The boys were nothing like him and the other behind him. Hagane Kotetsu tousled his friend's hair with a grin then draped his arm around Izumo's shoulder. The couple had known each other for as long as possible and would never be separated. Coincidentally, they also came from a Sannin Law Office. Tired of running errands for Tsunade, they resigned early.
"Let's go help those brats decorate," Kotetsu said, trailing his fingers down the right side of Izumo's face and neck. He lifted the silky brown hair away from the dark eye.
Izumo glanced at him. "Does it matter if I refuse?" He was the more reserved of the two and only showed his emotions to his partner.
"You know it doesn't." With the smaller man trapped against his side, Kotetsu marched them both down the halls.

"You express yourself more when you write," Naruto mumbled, the collar of his jacket turned up to protect against the harsh wind. The weather people were predicting another flurry or two of snow.
Sasuke remained silent as he trudged on ahead. He would put aside his feelings for tonight and put aside his fear. "Naruto. You knew my family ran an apartment complex, right?"
"I guess."
"It's where they were murdered. It's where I want to go� first."
The cerulean blue orbs widened and the blonde stared at Sasuke's back. It was then he noticed the jacket the brunet wore had the design of a red and white fan. Underneath the image was a set of kanji characters that he knew meant "Uchiha"--Sasuke had signed the paper in English and Japanese. "Are you sure?" he asked softly.
Sasuke looked over his shoulder then fell back to walk beside the blonde. He smiled, his eyes reflecting the utmost sadness. "I'll be fine because you'll be with me." Naruto smiled in return.
Sasuke lifted the yellow CAUTION tape still surrounding the building and passed under after Naruto. They took the stairs this time around the boy felt his heart clench. Nothing had been cleaned and the stairwell was stained with profuse amounts of dried blood. They stopped on each floor and Sasuke wasn't so sure his mind could take the fourth.
Naruto took the brunet's hand and pushed open the door. "Come on," he whispered. Sasuke shook his head, lagging behind. "Face your fears," the blonde urged. "If you have to cry, I'm right here." He pulled the Uchiha into the hall and Sasuke gasped.
The light began flickering, casting shadows over the mutilated and motionless bodies. His head swiveled to the end of the hall and his eyes widened. Itachi raised his arm and pulled the trigger of the gun he held.
Naruto wrapped his arms around the shuddering body. "Sasuke. Sasuke, wake up! It's all over. There's nothing you can do now!"
Sasuke zipped down his windbreaker, gasping for air, and clawed at his chest. "Why� why?"
Naruto forced the other's hands away and pulled down the shirt. "He shot you," he choked out, staring at the bullet wound scar.
Sasuke still saw Itachi, but his brother was now lying atop the pile of bodies. The warm sensation to his chest pulled him back and the hallway grew bright. He lowered his gaze to the blonde head and realized the warmth was coming from Naruto. "What are you�?" Sasuke blushed. Naruto's lips were pressed against the wound he'd received from his brother. "Naruto!"
The blonde grinned as he pulled away. "You recognize me now? I thought I'd lost you."
"Sorry." Sasuke looked around as he placed a hand over his bare skin. "Let's go. We're limited on time." He fixed his clothes and smiled at the other.
Naruto leaned in and placed a light kiss to Sasuke's lips. He wanted more but he wouldn't push it. "You owe me," he sighed, tucking is arms behind his head.
Sasuke shook his head and led them back on the streets once again. After walking a good twenty minutes, he froze, stumbling a little as Naruto slammed into him. "What'd you stop so suddenly for?" the blonde grumbled.
Kakashi was in a similar situation. "Iruka," he whined, leaning his head atop the other man's.
"Get off me," Iruka ordered, eyes never leaving the dark, wide ones across from him.
"Hello!" Naruto waved a hand in front of the other boy then stared at the men. His bright blue eyes widened, mouth falling open, and he pointed. "I know you!" Iruka shot the boy a glare that soon became a curious stare directed at the three whisker-like marks on both sides of the boy's face. "You're that guy�" the blonde mumbled.
"Mr. Umino--"
"Call him 'Iruka'," Kakashi chirped from underneath his black scarf, interrupting the ebony-haired boy.
"Stay out of adults' business," Iruka sighed, pushing the vet away. He stepped closer to the Uchiha orphan and used his height to intimidate him. The boy had cost him his job, yes, but somehow he didn't feel angry.
"I just wanted to thank you," Sasuke said quickly, looking away.
"Why?" The young man's eyes narrowed. "I was working to put you behind bars for life for manslaughter."
"He didn't do it!" The angry blonde calmed down some as Sasuke placed a hand to his shoulder, but remained scowling. "You obviously don't work for old lady Tsunade," Naruto said with a pout.
"You know Tsunade?" Iruka asked, glancing at the boy.
"Damn right I do!"
Kakashi's eyes arched into a high curve as he smiled. 'They're so emotional it's cute.'
"That's all I wanted to say," Sasuke sighed. "Come on, Naruto. We only have an hour left."
"What do you think Tsunade wants for Christmas?" the blonde asked with a grin as they started forward once more, hugging Sasuke's arm to his chest.
"How should I know?" Sasuke shook his captured appendage.
"You're welcome." All movement ceased and everyone turned to the stiff Iruka. "You're welcome," he repeated, running a hand through his hair. "But don't expect anymore miraculous favors." He smirked at the boys. His good mood ended just as quickly as it came and he snagged Kakashi's scarf. "Let's go," Iruka growled, dragging the older man down the sidewalk.
"Grown-ups are so weird," Naruto groaned, rubbing his head.
"And you're not?" Sasuke retorted.
"Shut up! I'm not!" Naruto tried to push Sasuke over but ended up on his back in the snow instead. The Uchiha stared down at him with a triumphant smirk.
Iruka turned away as the ebony-haired boy was also felled and tried to think of how to rid himself of the overgrown baby at his side.

Genma tied back his hair with the headscarf he'd found among other things in his room and marched his way down to the recreation room. It was after dinner--Naruto and Sasuke still had time before they returned--and the children were all gathered to finish decorating. Only this week alone, leading up to Christmas, were they allowed to be up past the regulated bedtime. Rolling up his sleeves, the man sighed and steeled himself for the pandemonium that lay ahead. A wad of tinsel flew by his face, followed by giddy laughter, and he sighed, scratching the back of his neck.
"It's hell, isn't it?"
He spun to face the new voice and smiled sheepishly, shifting the toothpick to the left side of his mouth. Raido clasped Genma's shoulder and ushered him into the room and up to the tree; the tree was half-decorated and poorly so.
"Where's Izumo and Kotetsu?" Genma mumbled, kneeling to assist a little girl tugging on his pant leg.
"Working the halls with the teenagers. Lucky bastards." The young girl stared at Raido with innocently wide eyes as Genma lifted her and he reached out to tousle her hair. "Sorry," he whispered, smiling.
"You should be put on lock-down for saying a bad word," she said before placing her decoration on the tree.
Genma grinned, returning her to the floor, then started rearranging what was up already. Raido turned his attention to those who wanted help gift-wrapping. Forty-five minutes in, Genma had to retire for a smoke. He made his way outside to his SUV and jumped onto the hood. He sighed deeply and stared up at the stars.
Naruto had Sasuke--amazingly enough so; Iruka was having a Florence Nightingale episode; Izumo was being dragged down by Kotetsu; where did he stand in all of these same-sex relationships? Genma inhaled and blew the smoke out through his nose with a sigh. Everybody was shacking up. Hayate had Uzuki and he so envied their undying, unwavering love.
"Genma, you slacker!"
"It hasn't even burned halfway down yet!"
"It's been twenty minutes! Get your puny butt in here!" Namiashi Raido; some kid was probably with him, causing him not to curse. They'd only just recently become acquainted. Next year, they'd be friends.
Genma rolled from his car with a groan and dropped his beloved cigarette into the slush on the shoveled driveway. Replacing it with the toothpick he'd tucked behind his ear, he grudgingly made his way back to the building where an annoyed Raido waited. As predicated, a little girl hid behind his leg. She gasped and pulled her hands to her chest as the older man stepped away.
"Your lungs should be black by now," he growled, pulling Genma into a playful headlock.
Genma smiled as he was led along, holding out his hand to the girl. She took it with a smile. Maybe they could be friends by spring and he would have someone to call his own by December next year.
`-`-`-`-`-`
"He's getting out of hand." The liquor was swished back and forth in the shot glass. It was quickly downed and the woman exhaled deeply as she slammed her hand back down on the counter. "We have to stop him before he completely ruins the good Sannin name." Tsunade glanced to her right at the silent man beside her. She gritted her teeth, snarling, and even the bartender jumped as his glass shattered in the woman's hand. "Jiraiya, pay attention! I'm trying to discuss business, you old pervert!"
The white head turned slowly and the third Sannin owner stared at his partner with a goofy expression. He pointed over his shoulder, a touch of drool rolling down his chin. "Business."
Tsunade looked and the vein on her forehead grew. Jiraiya's so-called "business" were two busty young women sitting together and giggling over beers they would never touch. "I don't care about your book, you... asshole!" the blonde woman roared.
The patrons of the pub stared at the bar counter in disbelief; they never knew a woman could emit such a sound... or be so violent.
`-`-`-`-`-`
A/N: (goofy-sounding laugh) A-hyuk! I'm sorry. I just had to put Jiraiya and his perversion in there. You can't have a story without the mention of Jiraiya! (cackles) Mah� Things are drawing to an end. I might just pass twenty with the amount of chapters I have. No worries! I have two more fics brewing in my head! (rubs her hands together with an insane grin) Mooo-uwahahahaha!
Gomeeeeeeen! Most of you probably got it out for Genma/Shizune, but... I dunno Shizune well, and I like Genma and Raido, and they've worked together longer! >3 (has a compelling argument...) ...I hope.
