Chapter 1: Interests
Sasuke was frustrated. His day did not go as well as he’d wanted it to. First, because of another of his father’s stupid lectures, he’d arrived late at school that morning. Why the man who won’t shut up about upholding an impeccable public image decided to lecture him for half an hour right when he was about to leave the house for school was puzzling in itself, but the fact that the lecture was about manners was even more confusing. That the man had even noticed he still had a second was the most shocking part though.Thinking back on it now, it really was a strange thing for his father to do.***
Sasuke had just pecked his mother on the cheek and thanked her for breakfast before he rushed to the door to leave for school when he heard his father’s voice calling his name.
“Sasuke”
Startled, the boy turned around to address his father. “Yes father?”
“It’s rude to just leave the house without saying goodbye to your father you know”
Furrowing his brow slightly, Sasuke tried to comprehend what his father was getting at. Since when do you care about me saying goodbye to you? He thought. Out loud he said “I’m sorry for offending you father, I’ll be leaving now.”
Thinking his father just wanted to reprimand him for no reason, the boy turned to go, but his father’s voice stopped him again.
“Sasuke I’m not done yet”
A little miffed that he was probably gonna end up late because of this, the boy sighed and turned back around and answered somewhat bitingly, “What else did you want father?”
“Don’t take that tone with me”, Fugaku said, “Remember that Uchiha’s pride themselves on always knowing what to say and when. Being polite, having excellent manners and being sociable are necessary assets when seeking to gain another’s favor. If you continue this rudeness, I might just have to give you another lesson in manners and neither of us will enjoy that. I, for one, would be very disappointed if my eighteen year old son could not even remember the basics. Itachi has excellent manners. Try to follow his example more.”
With that, his father turned around and went back around the corner, most likely to his office. He didn’t spare a sideways glance to Mikoto standing just inside the doorway who had been listening to everything.
Giving his mother a reassuring smile and a wave Sasuke left the house, not sure what to make of his father’s warning.
***
Sasuke’s father only ever remembers him when something important is happening or when he needs him to do something for the benefit of the company. Sometimes it’s both.
I wonder what it is this time, he thought.
Pulling into his spot in the garage, Sasuke remembered the second reason for his foul mood. Itachi.
He had snuck up to the roof of the school to call his brother and ask him if he knew why their father was being unusually picky lately. His brother’s answer had unnerved him slightly.
Itachi had said, “Yes, you’ll find out when you get home”, his brother’s voice had been off, defeated somewhat.
It worried him because Itachi was always strong. He always had a way of finding a solution for whatever problem he was facing, even if he had to go against father, he somehow always found a way to appease the asshole. This defeat was not normal.
Since the phone call, Sasuke had been distracted for the rest of the day resulting in more than one teacher giving him extra detention for not paying attention in class on top of being late.
The result at the end of the day was a very cranky, very worried Uchiha.
He got out of his car and went around to the front of the house. He noticed a sleek black Camaro parked in front of the house that he hadn’t noticed before. He suddenly got a very bad feeling in the pit of his stomach.
Walking to the door, he unlocked it and stepped inside. His mother was waiting in the foyer for him. He took off his shoes and slipped his feet into his slippers before giving her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. He hadn’t missed the two extra pairs of shoes neatly placed next to each other on the stairs. He wondered who they belonged to. He had a feeling he would soon find out. He decided to gather some intelligence from his mother beforehand so he wasn’t hit full force with whatever his father had planned.
Pulling away from his mother he asked her, “Who’s here?”
His mother gave him a kinda sheepish look and looked away before replying, “An associate of your fathers’ and his son”
“What are they here for?”
“I think your father should tell you, sweetie”
“Mom, why are you nervous? Are they bad people?”
I suddenly got even more nervous. Why won’t she tell me?
“Nothing like that honey, but I really can’t answer your questions. Your father will tell you”
I suddenly heard my father calling my name from the living room.
“Sasuke is that you? Come here I want to introduce someone to you”
Wow, he’s said my name three times in one day, must be important people then.
“I’m coming father”
Sasuke followed the short hallway and rounded the corner into the living room, shrugging his bag off his shoulder and placing it beside the couch before turning to the occupants in the room and bowing slightly. He then noticed his brother sitting on one of the couches and went to sit next to him. The wane smile his brother gave him did nothing to calm his nerves.
Fugaku cleared his throat and began to talk after Mikoto had brought and served everyone their tea and then seated herself dutifully beside her husband.
“As I mentioned before you arrived, Sasuke, this is Minato Namikaze and his son Naruto Uzumaki”
Namikaze…the Mayor of Konoha?!?!
Sasuke turned to look fully at the guests for the first time since he entered the room. As his gaze shifted forward, he was doubly assaulted with the image of bright, sunshine blond hair, azure eyes and cream colored skin. Father and son were practically identical, though while the father’s eyes were slightly dull, the son’s held a wellspring of emotions all seeming to be held right there in his eyes, making them shine. When the son, Naruto, turned to look at Sasuke, he could swear he saw the same defeated look in the blonde’s eyes that he’d seen in his brother’s upon entering the room.
“From the look on your face I can see that you’ve guessed who they are, yes, he is the Mayor of Konoha and also one of my closest friends. He’s also currently running for Senator.”
Sasuke looked intently at his father. He could practically hear the man mentally willing him to understand how important his next few words were going to be.
Ah, I get it now. Father was reminding me about manners this morning because he was worried about how I would react to what he’s going to say. Not to mention that this is to further his company, so it’s important.
"I’ve already told your brother this but since you were late, I’ll repeat it for you. Minato has to travel through the five major cities during his campaign to boost his image and gather the support of the people. He has hired me to be his legal representation and for his campaign so I will be traveling with him. Your mother is Konoha’s best private detective and she’s my wife which makes her trustworthy so she will be coming with me as well. I would’ve taken Hizashi or Hiashi but I need them to run the companies as well as Itachi. I have no doubt that you can take care of yourself, Sasuke, so I’m not worried about that. Minato, however, is concerned about his son staying by himself since he’s only sixteen, so we’ve decided that he will stay here with you and Itachi. He’ll also be transferring to Sharingan High to finish his last year with you Sasuke."
Sasuke’s mind had been wandering to his brother and what they would be doing later that night when he heard his father’s little declaration about them opening shop to some spoilt rich kid for an entire year. Never mind the fact that he's also a spoilt rich kid. He suddenly realized why his brother had sounded so defeated on the phone earlier. There was only one reason why Itachi would have a problem with this.
If Naruto came to live with them, then he and his brother would need to stop sleeping with each other…lest Naruto discovered the brother's interests.
At that thought, Sasuke panicked and forgot everything about manners.
“WHAT!?!!”
...
Next chapter has Sasuke freaking out.
We also get to hear this declaration from Naruto's point of view.
