Chapter 2. Move Along
When Hikari woke the room was dark and her back ached from the hard floor, they must have slumped over while they were sleeping because they were now just a tangle of limbs. She thought back over the day's events, despite her little break down she still felt good about the progress they had made. Neji would no longer push her away, and she was determined to continue to push herself until she beat this. The most logical strategy would be to treat this like training, that's what Shikamaru would tell her at least. Last night could be considered a control run, she now knew where her boundaries ended and her first task would be to comfortably cross that line.
She gave a long stretch, Neji's arm tightened around her waist pulling her closer, "morning," he purred into her ear.
His voice, deeper and raspier, sounded so delicious she had to stop herself from moaning aloud. God she had missed this, being so close to him without the awkwardness of tiptoeing around each other, afraid to touch or be touched. She turned in his arms so she could face him, "it's not morning, it's still dark out. We should head up to bed, the hard floor is destroying all the hard work you did on my back," she smirked slightly before leaning in for a gentle kiss.
He waited until she withdrew from him to speak, "then I'll just do it all over again," he said it slowly, drawing it out as his deft fingers began to manipulate her sore muscles, this time she couldn't stop the moan from escaping her lips.
"Mmm, bedroom first," she breathed, she was enjoying his ministrations far too much, and she knew he was too.
"As you wish," he untangled himself from her and helped her to stand before sweeping her into his arms, her hands automatically encircled his neck, as he supported her weight with one hand around her back and the other cupping her ass. When they got to their room he tossed her lightly onto the bed, she took his hand and tugged him down to join her.
She held him tightly, never wanting to let him go again, "love you so much," she mumbled into his shirt.
"Love you too, try and get a little more sleep," he told her as he placed a kiss on the top of her head. He drew circles on her back until her breathing evened out, only then did he allow sleep to claim him as well.
Something smelled wonderful, Hikari forced her eyes open, lifting a hand to block the sun, Neji was standing in the doorway, a tray laden with food, and coffee, balanced on one hand. "I didn't mean to wake you, but I figured you'd be hungry, considering neither of us ate since breakfast yesterday." He set the tray on the bed between them, carefully not to spill the coffee which Hikari immediately reached for.
She took a tentative sip, it was just the right temperature, as it always was when he made it, "ah," she sighed in happiness, "the bitter sweet nectar that keeps me from turning into a raging psycho." She wrapped both hands around the cup taking a moment to inhale the strong aroma, Neji said nothing but let out a deep, rich chuckle. He had learnt his lesson a long time ago not to disturb her before she finished her first cup of the day.
He thought back to their last Christmas morning, their first day in the house, they had no coffee in the house and the market was not yet open. He had suggested that she just wait or have tea instead, he was sure the glare she shot at him had shaved a few years off his life. She had then left him standing there, forbidding him to follow while she went to Sasuke's house where she knew there would be coffee waiting. Strangely enough Sasuke hadn't reacted badly to her unannounced morning visit, not to her at least, Neji found himself on the receiving end of the Uchiha's glares as well for the rest of the day. Though Hikari had warmed back up to him after imbibing her second cup. Since that day he had made sure there was always coffee in the house.
There was a tapping sound on the door frame, they looked over to see Itachi standing there, "sorry to interrupt, but I was wondering if you could show me that training technique you mentioned."
"I'm meeting with Ino and Shikamaru for lunch today but I'll have some free time after dinner tonight," she turned her gaze to Neji, "you want to help me with the demonstration?"
"Is this the technique I'm thinking of? I can't help it, it makes me nervous when you fight like that."
"Please Neji," she begged, "It's just the eyes I promise."
Neji sighed, they both knew he wouldn't say no, "alright. Seven o'clock in the dojo," he addressed Itachi. The older man nodded and left them alone. "What are you doing with Ino and Shikamaru today?"
"Ino wants me to help her plan their joint birthday, why don't you come along, keep Shikamaru from falling asleep on us," she laughed.
"Sounds like a plan. Hikari," he voice turned serious, "why haven't you been taking the sleeping pills when I'm away on a mission?"
She had knew this question would come up sooner or later, she moved the now empty tray off of the bed and shifted closer to him, "it was Dr. Kokoro's idea, while you were on mission these last two months, he noticed in one of our appointments that I was especially tired so they stuck me the sleep lab for a few days to try and solve the problem.
"As it turns out this whole time the sleeping pills haven't been working, I'm still dreaming but not remembering the dream when I wake up. That's why I've always been so tired after taking them, I'm still thrashing about but my mind doesn't send out a wake up signal to my body. It was doing more harm than good so he took me off of them." Neji nodded his understanding but still looked perturbed, she rushed to assure him, "Neji it's fine really, I survived through years of sleepless nights before I moved here. A few nights here and there aren't going to kill me. Though I'm surprised Itachi hasn't these past two months," she joked, relieved when she saw him relax. She knew he was just worried about her, but sometimes he forgot how long she had been dealing with it.
She actually thought that might be the reason it was so hard for her to get over her past, after so many years it had been a part of her. All she could do was look for better ways to live with it.
After leaving Hikari and Neji to their own devices, Itachi took a deep steadying breath and walked next door. The good doctor wanted him to work on facing his past and accepting it. All of the houses in the district had already been torn down, the only one still standing and unchanged was his childhood home, the same house that filled him with the most apprehension. He knocked on the door, he heard some fumbling around and hushed voices before the door was ripped open, not by his brother but the man's blond lover.
"Ohayo, Itachi-san, what are you doing here?" Naruto stood before him clad in nothing but a pair of shorts.
Itachi hid his surprise, he knew the two were lovers but had never been witness to such an obvious display of their relationship, Sasuke was never one for public displays of affection, and the exuberant blonde accepted that. "Is Sasuke home Naruto-kun?"
Naruto never got the chance to answer as Sasuke reached the door, swatting Naruto out of the way, "go put some clothes on dobe." Naruto disappeared up the stairs, "is everything okay Itachi?" Something had to be up, his brother never came up to the house, preferring to send Kira to get him when Itachi wished to see him. "Where's Kira?"
"Kira is over at the new house, she wanted to start on the interior, may I come in?"
Sasuke stepped aside allowing him entry, it dawned on him that his brother was here on doctors orders, he admired his gall to come alone instead of waiting for Kira. For such a timid little thing, she gave Itachi a great deal of support, and was the only person he had ever met that could not only meet his brother's gaze but challenge it when she was passionate about something. "Coffee?" Sasuke offered, closing the door behind him.
"No thank you, I just finished a cup not long ago," he followed Sasuke to the kitchen, taking a seat at the table, it was still the same one he remembered.
Sasuke fixed himself a cup, never taking his eyes off his brother, his shoulders were tense, his back straight, hands splayed on the table knuckles turning white. "Let's go outside," Sasuke suggested, and led him out the back door, the yard was one of the few things he had changed, converting most of the green space for training but leaving a small area for a garden where he grew his own tomatoes, herbs to be used for remedies and salves, as well as a wide variety of flowers, beautiful looking but deadly poisons could be extracted from them. He had purchased a patio set, where they now sat. Naruto joined them outside shortly, nursing his own cup of coffee, containing so much sugar Sasuke doubted it was still considered coffee at all.
He looked to his brother again, he was a lot more relaxed now, inside had been too much for him, yet he had said nothing of his discomfort. Typical Itachi, pushing his limits too far while he should have taken a slower approach.
Naruto glanced between the two siblings, while both seemed content with the silence, he found it very boring, "Itachi-san what are your plans for the day?"
"I don't have any, Kira probably won't agree to leave the house until she's too tired to continue and Hikari and Neji were planning on meeting up with the Nara boy and the girl from the Yamanaka clan. Hikari does have something to show me this evening though. Which reminds me, she said to ask you to explain the training technique she uses to strengthen her senses," he said as he looked to Sasuke.
"You're going to try and learn that?" Sasuke asked incredulously, he could remember how hard it had been when Orochimaru tried to teach him, he had to concede he was still jealous that Hikari was able to surpass him under those circumstances.
"I do not have much choice in the matter, little brother."
Sasuke remembered the diagnosis Itachi had been given upon his return, the man hadn't seemed surprised, probably knew the consequences before even attaining the Mangekyo Sharingan in the first place. "It's not easy to learn, you might have some trouble since you are used to having your Sharingan going at all times. She's going to make you deactivate it and blindfold you for good measure.
"Who is her sparring partner tonight?" Naruto was curious, it was always very interesting to watch Hikari fight with a self induced handicap.
"Neji agreed to fight her, though if she's blindfolded I hardly see that as a fair match."
"Don't worry about that," Sasuke assured him, "if they are sparring in the dojo, they will be sticking to taijutsu and perhaps weapons, and Neji will not use his dojutsu to make the fight even."
"Have her senses really grown that much?"
Sasuke nodded, "depending on the terrain she could probably hold on long enough for backup to arrive if she was lacking both her eyes and ears."
"Really? She's that good?"
Sasuke tried to find the best way to word it, "it's difficult to say, as I said it has a lot to do with the terrain she is fighting on, as well as who she is up against, but that's the case no matter who or what their skills are. I would hazard to say she is equally proficient with either her sight or hearing affected. But with both gone it gets extremely difficult, if there is even a slight breeze it could throw her off completely.
"I must admit I would enjoy seeing you fight her, to see you against someone you couldn't ensnare in your genjutsu would be interesting to say the least."
"Perhaps some day soon then."
Hikari and Neji were at Shikamaru's house. Hikari was in her usual spot on Neji's lap as he and Shikamaru played a game of shogi, Hikari would occasionally notice something Neji had missed and would absentmindedly move a piece to cover him. At the same time she was discussing the guest list with Ino.
"You know it's really troublesome playing two against one with you guys."
"So get Ino to help you," Neji said offhandedly, knowing the Nara never would, Ino had no interest in shogi.
"Besides it doesn't count as two on one because we're not stopping to discuss strategy and playing as one," Hikari pointed out. "Oh Lee and Tenten won't be able to make it, I heard they're being sent out on a mission that week," she said to Ino, pointing to their names on the list.
Ino crossed their names off, "it's getting harder and harder to get everyone together," she said sadly, "Sakura will be out of town too. Hey do you think Itachi and Kira would like to come?"
"I could ask them, Itachi would require convincing on his own, but if Kira wants to come he will too." She snatched the list away from Ino and put it on the shogi board in the middle of the table, "look this over guys, do you notice anyone on the list that won't be in town for the party?"
"Hinata is going to Suna." Shikamaru drawled lazily.
"Again, she just got back from there last month," Ino mentioned, piquing Neji's interest. "I wonder why she's going there so often."
All eyes focused on Shikamaru, Neji sat up straighter pinning the tactical genius with his intense gaze.
"Troublesome," he sighed, taking note that no one was willing to let the subject drop. There was a high percentage they would all find out as long as one of them remained interested.
If he just told Neji, there was a chance he would keep it to himself, though he figured the odds were three to one that he would share the information with Hikari. Hikari would doubtless tell Neji if she knew and there was about a sixty percent chance that she would tell Ino as well, she could be very persuasive. There was no point in even trying to confide in his girlfriend, Hikari had become one of her closest friends and it was a certainty she would pass it along, thereby getting back to Neji.
"She's in a relationship with Gaara," he kept his tone flat and blunt, as if his words had no meaning.
"Excuse me, since when?" Neji's voice was cold when he spoke.
"During the trip she and Hanabi took to Suna while you we're in the Sound village."
Hikari ventured a look at her boyfriend, he looked lost in thought, she took him off guard when she drew him into a deep kiss, "leave it alone Neji, she can take care of herself now," she whispered in his ear, allowing her tongue to graze the outer shell as she spoke, effectively distracting him from the previous discussion. She relaxed against his chest and took in the setup of the board in front of her, "have you decided where you're having the party yet?" she asked as she moved a piece.
"We want to have it outside but I'm worried it'll rain, but I don't want to have to rent a space and a tent to hold it in."
"Come to our place then, the landscapers will be done in a few days time, wait til you see what they've done with it." When the decision had been made to rebuild and repurpose the Uchiha district Sasuke had insisted she take the plot behind the house, stating that having her living next door was more than enough, he had also repurposed the plots behind and to the other side of his house as green space as well.
Hikari had hired landscaper to redo the area adding some trees and a small koi pond with a little red bridge spanning the length of it, she had the deck expanded and screened in so it would serve Ino nicely should it rain.
Ino's eyes lit up in excitement, "for real, you'll let us use it?"
"Of course, but this is the last time, you guys really need to get your own place."
"Troublesome," Shikamaru mumbled.
When they got home Itachi was in the kitchen making dinner, when they had come to stay there, Kira had insisted that the two of them would pitch in to help with cooking and cleaning.
"I thought it was Kira's night to cook?" Hikari asked. She always looked forward to the other girls' cooking, it wasn't that Itachi couldn't cook, he was very capable, but Kira always used fresh ingredients, and hunted her own game whenever possible.
"She's been consumed by her new project, I stopped by to see how she was doing this afternoon, she said she'll take dish duty when she gets home tonight. I also spoke with Sasuke this morning, he speaks very highly of your ability to fight while handicapped."
"I have a hard time picturing Sasuke speak highly of anyone, if this was coming from anyone other than you I wouldn't believe it at all," Hikari laughed.
When they finished dinner the two guys retreated to the dojo while Hikari went to change her clothes. When she came back she was wearing a black pair of tights, and a black shirt that was so loose it hung off one shoulder and came down just below her ribs, exposing a blood red tank top she wore underneath.
They bowed to each other and Neji took a fighting stance while Hikari secured a length of fabric around her eyes, "Itachi," she called out, "would you like to come and confirm that I can't see before we start?" She heard his footsteps come towards her, she could easily tell the difference between the two, Itachi took quick light steps, whereas Neji's long smooth strides barely registered on the floorboards, he was by far her most challenging opponent when she couldn't see.
"Good to go," he announced and stepped back to watch the fight unfold before his eyes. Her movements were quick and precise, several times he thought Neji had her but she would dodge at the last moment.
He was holding back more than usual and it was obvious, it pissed her off, he knew she could handle this. But she said nothing waiting for a chance to turn the tables on him, dodged, blocked and attacked until they were both panting. She aimed a roundhouse kick at him, knowing what he would do.
He grabbed her foot mere millimetres before it connected, without his byakugan he didn't notice the other one coming. Letting her forward momentum carry through she flipped him, her hands hit the floor first allowing her to springboard back up, but she had already heard him regain his footing, he was quicker than her, all those years on the same team as Lee had made him that way. His fist connected with her chest, the power behind it knocked her flat on her back, he straddled her hips, pinning her arms above her head.
She felt a sense of exhilaration coursing through her veins, the weight of him upon her had her feeling strangely aroused, but first she had one more thing planned, she bucked her hips as she brought her feet up. Executing a backwards somersault taking him with her, effectively switching their positions. Instead of pinning his arms above his head, she chose to use her knees to pin them at his sides. She ripped off the blindfold, seeing the mild shock on his face.
"I win," she smirked at him but did not get up, she glanced over at Itachi, "that's how it's done," she panted. Her arousal still hadn't subsided, instead it continued to grow.
Neji looked up at her in awe, took in her flushed face, her eyes full of fire, the way her chest heaved. He tried to fight down his growing erection before she noticed it. Too late, she slid back, ever so slightly coming into contact with it, he waited for her to jump back, the panic to fill her eyes, but the moment didn't come. She just continued talking to Itachi, about something he couldn't even pay attention to, like she didn't even notice. He noticed the smallest twitch at the corner of her mouth. She was trying not to smirk about it, the implications of it hit him at the same time she wrapped up the conversation with the Itachi. She rolled back onto the balls of her, to free his arms, sliding along the length of his erection as she did so, he had to fight to keep from moaning.
"Neji, you coming?" she asked him for a second time, bringing him back to reality.
He shook the fog from his head, she was on her feet her hand extended to help him up. He took it and she didn't let go.
"Have a good night," she called over her shoulder as she bolted from the room, pulling Neji behind her. She collapsed on the bed, he still looked slightly dazed, "you didn't hear a thing Itachi and I were talking about did you?" she laughed.
"No sorry. My mind was elsewhere."
"That was intense," she breathed, she needed him, but not yet. She forced a serious expression on to her face, "why don't you go hop in the shower," she sat up to give a quick peck on the cheek, "don't take too long though, I want one too."
Neji nodded and sauntered off to the bathroom, he needed to take care something.
Hikari waited until the water had been running for a few minutes before stripping out of her clothes. She did her best not to make a sound as she crossed the room to the bathroom door, turning the knob ever so slowly as not to be heard. Thanks to the renovations, the door moved smoothly not making a sound. She could see his silhouette through the frosted glass, his back was turned to the door and she was pretty sure she knew what he was doing as she slipped in behind him.
As soon as the water had warmed enough he had moved under the spray, one hand bracing himself on the wall before him, the other reached down to wrap around his achingly hard cock. He closed his eyes and remembered the way she looked after the match. He let down his guard, something he rarely did, not even noticing her until she wrapped her arms around his waist, pressing her breasts up against his back.
She trailed her fingers over his slick skin, playing across his perfectly sculpted chest, "you took too long," she kissed his back. He stilled her hands so that he could turn to face her, please don't push me away, she thought to herself.
He bent to cover her mouth with his own, she deepened the kiss, her tongue dipping in to tangle with his. Her hand returned to his chest roaming his body at a frenzied pace, craving his touch like it was a drug. She moaned against him as his hands came to rest at the small of her back, she pulled him closer running her blunt nails down his back.
It wasn't enough, she needed more, she backed up, colliding with the wall, taking him with her, breaking the kiss she guided his head down to her breasts. That was all the encouragement he needed as he sucked one pert nipple into his mouth causing her to gasp, slamming their hips together, trapping his cock between them. She reached between them, taking it in her hand to stroke him.
He kissed his way up to her lips, sucking, nibbling, biting, wanting to taste every inch of her, "tell me what you want?" he begged her.
"Please Neji I need you," he lifted her off the tiled floor, she hooked her legs around his waist, "please." He plunged into her waiting heat, "more, N-neji," she panted.
"Put your arms around my neck, hold tight," he grunted, once she had done so he cradled her ass with one arm supporting as much of her weight as possible, he brought his hand to caress her nest of dark curls. She stifled a moan as he circled her clit, applying light pressure, all the while thrusting into her.
She was fast approaching the threshold, her vision became clouded, he could feel her muscles clenched around his hardened member, he was almost there, he could feel the wave washing over him. "H-h-hikari," he moaned as she bit down on his shoulder stifling her own scream, as she felt her climax rush through her body. She slumped against him, she couldn't feel her legs, couldn't feel anything but sated. "Love you Neji."
"I love you too Hikari," he gently set her on her feet, still allowing her to lean against him as he washed her, they had been in the shower too long and the hot water was starting to grow cold, he quickly washed himself as well before turning off the water and carrying her back to bed. He lay down next to her, neither bothering with clothes, he slipped into oblivion.
