New Years Kisses, Two Near Misses Part II
"Naruto, will you take Sasuke to the kitchen? If I am not mistaken, we have a meal to eat that no doubt needs to be heated at this point." The blond did as Itachi asked, knowing full well that this was what his brother needed. He gently grabbed Sasuke's hand and pulled his furious lover to the kitchen, leaving their brothers alone in the living room. He only hoped that Itachi got through to Kyuubi. The redhead didn't look at Itachi, ashamed that he had overheard everything. He could imagine the impression that the other man had gotten from him now. He warily sat down and clasped his hands together, as if he were getting a scolding from Kabuto and waited for Itachi to dig into him, his long red hair hiding his face as he bowed his head in submission. Pursing his lips, Itachi moved farther into the room. The position Kyuubi had assumed was a little alarming, a clear sign of abuse. No doubt it was from the relationship he vaguely remembered the redhead mentioning before he had passed out in Kyuubi's lap. "I apologize for their behaviour," the doctor began. It was a little disconcerting that Kyuubi couldn't meet his eyes, but he pushed forward. "For years I protected Sasuke from the unspeakable, and now he believes it is his turn to protect me. As you can see, he takes that self appointed duty very seriously, and as you know, where Sasuke leads Naruto follows." "It's not Sasuke's fault. The blame lies with me." Kyuubi muttered. "You don't have to apologize for something I deserved." "Being reprimanded for trying to sneak off and abandon me without closure," Itachi mused, slowly moving closer. "Yes, I suppose you do deserve his wrath for such a thing. But is that what you want? To walk out that door and pretend we never met?" "No," Kyuubi whispered. "I didn't want to hurt you like...before. You deserve someone more experienced than me, someone who won't hurt you." "Hn." Itachi took a seat beside the rather submissive Kyuubi, but made no move to initiate physical contact. He was out of his element. At the present moment, he was absolutely humiliated and fighting the urge to turn tail and run. But he would face Kyuubi like a man and let him decide. "I suppose we are both broken in our own ways, but what happened was through no fault of your own. There was no possible way you could have known what you said would have triggered such a reaction. It was a one in a billion chance, and I apologize again for scaring you. I understand if you don't want to involve yourself with me after such a scare." "I shouldn't be the one to decide that. You have nothing to be ashamed of like I do. If I had my way...well...I wouldn't leave you." Kyuubi said nervously, staring his hands. "Then I suppose it's decided," Itachi said, standing once again. He held out his hand for Kyuubi to take. "I believe we have a dinner to eat." Kyuubi blinked at the pale hand that was held out in front of him. He looked up to Itachi with questioning blue eyes. "Together?" "I am starting to see where Naruto gets it from..." the doctor muttered under his breath. "Yes together." He'd hoped the extended hand would have made that obvious. Kyuubi lightly grasped the paler hand and let himself be helped off the couch, catching his foot on the runner that was in front of the furniture. He fell into Itachi's arms, the older man steadying him before righting themselves, a dark blush deepening on the redhead's cheeks. Itachi brushed the long fiery bangs that hid Kyuubi's face from view and smiled softly. Whether the security guard could tell or not, Itachi was just as nervous as Kyuubi. A relationship of his own choosing was something new. Three one night stands and a six month relationship with a woman his father had set him up with had hardly prepared him for this. "Come on," the older man coaxed taking a tan hand in his own again. Hand in hand, they silently wandered into the kitchen where Naruto and Sasuke were setting the last of the reheated dinner on the table. Naruto smiled brightly as he saw the intertwined hands of the two older men. He didn't say anything, just gestured to the food on the table before taking his seat next to Sasuke. He stealthily grabbed his boyfriends hand and squeezed it tightly. "I'm surrounded by morons," Sasuke muttered, but he squeezed Naruto's hand back anyway. "Both of you sit and eat." Itachi pulled out a seat for Kyuubi before taking his own and serving himself some of the salad his brother passed him. The bowl was then passed to Kyuubi, their hands brushing as the food was handed over. He looked up, his dark eyes meeting the bright blue, and the corner of his lips twitched upwards. The redhead returned the smile as he took the salad bowl and set it down on the table between them. He leaned over and quickly pecked Itachi's cheek. "Thank you," he whispered reverently, not referring to the salad but something else altogether. Understanding the meaning behind Kyuubi's words, Itachi nodded respectfully and returned the kiss. "No, thank you." "I don't need thanking," Kyuubi said smiling. "Tch..." Sasuke winced when Naruto elbowed him in the side. Hearing the noise, Itachi turned back to the other two and chuckled. "I suppose we are being rather sappy. Let's eat." Dinner was eaten with light conversation between the four men. They kept away from the subject of what had occurred earlier that evening. Kyuubi smiled as he basked in the peace that had settled over them. When he finished his food he looked to Itachi and noticed that the other was finishing up his dinner as well. "Was there anything you wanted to do tonight?" The redhead asked as the Uchiha turned to him. Eyebrow raised, Itachi looked to the man beside him. "Well, I wasn't planning on running into the mysterious kitsune from the party but I have no plans. Did you have anything in mind?" "Maybe a walk through the park?" "I like the sound of that. Perhaps we can sit by the lake for a bit and talk." Kyuubi smiled brightly. "That'd be perfect." "Great, we'll handle the dishes and you two get the hell out," Sasuke said pushing back from the table. With a chuckle, Itachi stood, pulling Kyuubi to his feet as well and towing him down the hallway. Making a quick pit stop, he grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair in the living room and then made his way to the front hall. He slipped on his dress shoes, and patiently waited for Kyuubi to tie his sneakers. The redhead quickly tied his shoes and followed Itachi out of the house, grinning as the door closed and the couple headed to his truck. He couldn't believe that this man still wanted a relationship with him even after the episode from this afternoon, but he wouldn't question it. Naruto sniffed as his brother left the house with Itachi. He stood in the kitchen doorway for a few minutes just staring into the living room, not even startling when Sasuke came up behind him and wrapped his arms around his waist. "You okay?" "My wittle baby is all grown up!" The blond whined as he turned around and buried his face into Sasuke's neck. With an exasperated groan, Sasuke let his idiot boyfriend hang off him for a few moments before shoving him off and towards the dirty dishes. "Mourn over your loss while you clean. I'm going to take a shower." "Why do I get stuck with the dishes?" Naruto wailed as Sasuke sauntered out of the kitchen. ***While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
