Late Night Dinners and Wine

//Madara👺//

: I need you to come to the company.

But I am out right now:

: No worries, I already sent a car. 

They should be outside right now.

I looked at the message and shook my head. Madara was always doing things against my will.

"Sorry, but I really have to go. Thanks for everything tonight," I said as I got up and headed to the door in a rush. However, Itachi followed right behind me and stepped outside.

"Is it Madara again?" Itachi questioned. I looked back at him and sighed.

"Yeah, he said it was something important at the company," I said. Itachi slightly frowned and shook his head.

"That guy seriously needs to get a secretary." I snickered a bit at that before running over to the waiting black car and waved Itachi off. The car started moving and I could notice Itachi was still frowning. I already knew what he was thinking. That Madara was way too dependent on keeping tabs on me. I couldn't deny that it was annoying, but I knew my brother meant well. He'd never tried to do something to purposely hurt me.

//Tobirama's POV//

After Izuna had left, Itachi walked back in and sat down in his seat. I could tell he was not in the best mood compared to earlier which was strange. Kisame looked over at me and looked back at Itachi before clearing his throat.

"What was that about?" Kisame questioned.

Itachi looked up and sighed before shaking his head. "Izuna's brother messaged him to go over to their company. I just know that guy probably doesn't even need to talk about anything important," he said with slight annoyance in his voice.

"What makes you say that?" Nagato asked. Before he could answer, Konan intervened.

"Because he's done this before so many times. At this point, it isn't surprising. That guy definitely has some kind of radar in his head telling him that Izuna is out with friends," Konan said as Itachi nodded.

"Reminds me of the time we went to drink some wine at my house and Izuna got completely wasted. Not more than a couple of minutes passed before that dumb black car stopped out front. When I tell you his brother was pissed, I mean it," Itachi said.

They both continued to share their experience when it came to dealing with Izuna's brother. By the end of it I could tell that Itachi completely hated that guy. Konan just didn't like that he ruined their outside-of-work activities, and Kagami simply didn't have anything to say about the guy. According to him, he only met him once.

"Err Itachi, I think you had enough to drink," Kisame said as he carefully took the wine bottle out of the guy's hand. Itachi didn't seem to resist which made Konan laugh a bit.

"This idiot," was all she could say before she looked down at her phone and gasped. I looked down at my own and saw that it was already really late. One by one they piled out the door, including Kisame who was helping a drunken Itachi out the door. Quite a sight to see. He definitely was the type to get black-out drunk just to rant about his displeasure with Izuna's brother.

I ended up going back before cleaning the mess in the kitchen, and I was doing so, my phone vibrated on the counter. So quickly I wiped my hands and slightly frowned at the message. It was from an unknown number, but the context of it made me realize who it was from.

//Unknown//

: Hey, I'm sorry about leaving so abruptly. The food was good though so thanks.

: Have a good night😅

I paused for a moment at the messages. Who gave him my number? 

*Number saved as: Izuna😐*

With that, I edited the number and left it at that before heading upstairs to bathe and get to bed. I'm sure Izuna must have found my number online unless he had some real stalking capabilities and somehow now knows everything about me. Which would be impossible I thought to myself.

Right?
