Chapter 14: All I ever wanted

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Itachi-kun." Naruto mumbled with the tears still falling from his eyes.

Gathering the broken teen in his arms, he hugged him, letting him cry on his shoulder once again. He was started to regret having his brother there. He should have kicked him out that day when they found out what he did. Smirking a little, he pulled Naruto away and stared at the crying face.

"How about you and I go get a gallon tub of ice cream for everyone but him? I'll let you drive if you're able. I won't let you if you keep crying." Itachi suggested with that smirk on his face.

Nodding, Naruto wiped at the tears and grabbed a tissue from the box to blow his nose. "That sounds fun. I'll drive on the way back."

"Good. Let's go."

"What about dinner?" Naruto asked as he rubbed at his nose.

"Hinata's watching it for me. It'll be fine. Go ask what everyone wants." Itachi said, seeing the blond leap off the bed and run out of the room. Smiling to himself, he followed after him but in a slower pace. While he was in the room, he reached into his bag and got his glasses out.

Naruto ran into the kitchen where Hinata was, scaring her a bit. "Hinata-chan what do you want for ice cream?"

"Um . . . moose tracks please." She answered politely, seeing the blond disappear.

Naruto ran into the living room where Gaara was laying on the couch, watching something. "What do you want for ice cream?"

"Cookie and cream." The auburn haired teen answered.

Naruto nodded, knowing what kind he was getting. Bounding into the kitchen again, he saw the college student gathering the keys up with a hoodie and glasses on. "Itachi-kun, I didn't know you wore glasses."

"Oh these. I have to wear them sometimes because my eyes don't know whether they're good or not. Today's one of those days that they think they should be bad." Itachi clarified with a smile.

They walked out of the house, seeing a car pull away. It had to be Sasuke and his new fling leaving. They didn't really care though. Getting into the car, it was cooler then in the house.

Turning the car on and flicking on the headlights, the Uchiha turned the wipers on to clear up the windshield. Buckling himself up with the radio up a bit, he glanced over at Naruto.

"Hinata wants moose tracks and Gaara wants cookies and cream." Naruto read off with a smile.

Nodding, Itachi put the car into reverse and then drive. As they drove, Tracy Lawrence's Paint me a Birmingham was just ending. He didn't recognize the next song that was on so it had to be a new release or he just wasn't listening to the radio long enough to hear it.

When they got to the store, they ran in with the car shut up, the wipers stuck on the windshield, they went to the ice cream. Naruto picked up the two that his friends want, watching Itachi grab rainbow sherbet. "What do you want Naruto?"

"Grab a chocolate one please." Naruto answered as he felt his hands freezing from the frozen treats. Following the dark-eyed man to the check out, he watched Itachi pay for everything. He wasn't afraid to split up the cost so it would feel even. Grabbing the four bagged treats, Naruto followed his friend out into the slow drizzle.

Hopping into the driver seat, Naruto glanced at Itachi as he buckled up and started the car up.

It felt weird to the Uchiha that was in the passenger seat instead of the driver seat. He was so used to commuting to college and back to his apartment and everywhere else.

"So how long have you had your license?"

"Since last year. I was lucky enough that Oto-san had a break from work which gave me time to get the test set up and took it. I got even luckier that I passed it with only five points off which was on the movability test. I hated that test." Naruto answered and muttered at the end.

"Everyone does." Itachi said with a chuckle.

The rest of the drive was silent with various of country and pop music on the radio. When he parked the car, Naruto glanced over at Itachi as he grabbed the bag.

"Um Itachi." He heard Naruto speak up just as Kiss a Girl by Keith Urban started to come on. Glancing up, he saw the faint light hit the tanned face of the teen.

"What is it Naruto-kun?" Itachi inquired as he sat up straight.

"Thank you so much for everything." Naruto said softly before leaning in and pressing his lips onto the pale ones of the Uchiha's. He glanced at the dark eyes to see surprise in them but it soon faded.

When he broke away from him, Naruto saw the surprise written on his face but wasn't sure how to answer the unasked question. Biting his lip, he felt a tug on his neck before his own lips were pressed on the Uchiha's once more.

"Why did you do that in the first place Naruto?" Itachi asked finally when they broke apart again.

"I don't know. Ever since you helped me out with Sasuke, I didn't know how to show my thanks besides a simple thank you. And for some reason ever since I first saw ya I've felt this tug in my heart." Naruto answered as he fiddled with the end of his hoodie. Glancing over at the college student, he saw the surprise come back once more.

"That is very surprising but it happens. I wonder what he would say if he heard that. Hell, he doesn't need to know so why am I worrying about that? Then how about this, the last day of your spring break, we go out for dinner and a movie." Itachi suggested as he reached over and shut the car off.

Nodding, Naruto agreed to it. They left the car where it was, locking it and went into the house. When he got into the house, he smiled, telling his friends that something was up.

"Sasuke was back but he got everything he had and left again." Hinata said.

It didn't ruin their moods though. They seemed to be on cloud nine for some reason. Maybe it was the fact that Itachi was understanding what he felt for the blond. It remained a mystery for most of the stay until now. He thought he couldn't love but here he was with his brother's ex. He was actually having fun with him. He didn't have to worry about him overworking or not being there at the apartment because he was still in high school.

Walking into the kitchen, he saw a note written for him by Sasuke but dismissed it. All it said that he was leaving and wasn't going to put up with the 'shit' in the house. He didn't mind it though. Grabbing four spoons, he gathered all of the gallon containers and walked out into the room. Handing them all out, he curled up on the floor next to Naruto, their feet touching slightly.

"You seem to be in a good mood Uzumaki. What happened while you guys were going to get ice cream?" Gaara questioned with his spoon in his mouth.

"Let's just say I had my heart healed by someone special." Naruto said, seeing an invisible eyebrow rise by the teen. Smiling, he went back to his ice cream and took a bite of it.

Glancing up, Itachi smiled. "Yeah, someone special that's been in front of him for a long time now."

Hinata and Gaara shrugged and went back to the comedy that she turned on while they were waiting for them to show back up.

Itachi was jumping up and down inside when they all went to bed and Naruto got onto the webcam with his parents. Poking his head in, they stared at him before Naruto's mother blurted out his name.

"That can't be Itachi. The last time I saw him, he graduated." Minato said as he looked at him more.

"It's him Oto-san. He was the one that took us to the beach house. I told you that. Also . . ." Naruto trailed off and glanced over at the Uchiha beside him.

He nodded, knowing what he was wondering.

"Also what?" Kushina asked glaring at them.

"He asked me out too." Naruto said, seeing his mother disappear from the view of the camera. She reappeared with her blue eyes wide.

"W-what? You just got over Sasuke. Why so soon?"

"Feelings are really hard to resist when you're in the same car as your crush." Naruto said, waving goodbye to his parents and shutting the camera off. "Now what?"

"Sleep. We have to clean this place up side tomorrow is our last day here." Itachi said, hugging the blond and kissing his cheek gently. He left the bed and laid down in his own, happy and content.

Whoot! ItaxNaru fluff! Please review.
