Ita: *walks in wearing jogging pants that slightly hangs from his hips* Naruto this shirt is too sma- *sees him sleeping* ....He's so adorable...*sits next to him and gentley rubs his head* You're too good for Sasuke...he doesn't know how to treat you....*slowly leans down and.....*
Naru: Nn...Sasuke...
Ita: *stops* He's dreaming about him...Hmph. *gets up and goes downstairs* Just keep messing up little brother...make it easier for me.
**The Next Day**
Naru: *yawns and sits up* Morning already? Ugh...*he gets up and goes to get washed up*
Ita: *cooking breakfast* Naruto likes his coffee with a lot of cream, two sugars. Bacon, extra crispy. Toast, buttery. And scrambled egg whites...I bet Sasuke doesn't even know that.
Naru: *walks downstairs dressed* Morning...you're making breakfast?
Ita: Yes. I made your favorite too.
Naru: Wow...thanks. Sasuke never cooked for me. I appreciate this.
Ita: Don't mention it. Go sit.
Naru: *goes to his recliner and lays back* It's been forever since I relaxed like this...
Ita: *comes in with a plate of food and their coffee* Here.
Naru: Thanks! *eagerly takes his food and starts chowing down* Oh man this is good...
Ita: Don't eat so fast...but I'm glad you enjoy it.
Naru: *sips at his coffee* You know? I never noticed how well you knew me...even after all these years Sasuke doesn't even know that I drink my coffee like this.
Ita: Hn.
Naru: Does that run in the family? You Uchiha's are always saying "hn."
Ita: Hn.
Naru: *narrows his eyes* You did that one on purpose.
Ita: Possibly. Finish eating. You have to leave for missions soon.
Naru: I don't want to...Sasuke is gonna try to talk to me. *gulps down the rest of his food* Ah! Delicious! You'd make a good wife.
Ita: Would I now? You'd make a good wife too.
Naru: Whatever..I'll see you later.
Ita: Goodbye.
Naru: *leaves out*
**Training Ground**
Naru: Hey! I'm here early. Even here before the forehead monster.
Saku: *shows up a while later* Those idiots aren't here as us- *sees Naruto* You're early?!
Naru: *glares at her* Yeah. That a problem?
Saku: No, I'm just surprised.
Naru: Well ta-da bitch! I'm here.
Saku: What did you call me?!
Naru: Don't get in my face. I'm sure you're smart enough to know not to do that.
Saku: Hmph..I don't have to stand here and take this! *leaves*
Sasu: *appears* Naruto...Why are you so early?
Naru: Because.
Sasu: Babe please let's talk about this...
Naru: ...
Sasu: Naruto.
Naru: ...
Sasu: Don't ignore me!
Naru: ...
Sasu: *sheds a tear* Ruru...
Naru: *feels his heart skip* ...Fine. I can't stay mad at you. If you can prove that you can change, you can have one more chance.
Sasu: *grins and kisses his cheek* I promise you, you won't regret it.
Naru: Don't touch me. Only when you prove yourself can you get a chance.
**Later That Night**
Naru: Ha! I get $50 from every player~ *playing Monopoly with Itachi and Kisame*
Kisa: Kakuzu cheats all the time at this game...and he likes playing with real money. *hands over the fake money*
Ita: *hands over his* You'd love our...associates.
Kisa: That's Itachi talk for "friends".
Naru: You guys sound fun...I wouldn't mind tagging along every now and then.
Ita: *looks at the time and nudges Kisame*
Kisa: Well time for me to go! See ya.
Naru: Awe...but it seems like you just got here!
Kisa: I'll see ya tomorrow pipsqueak. *ruffles his hair and leaves out*
Naru: I'm not a pipsqueak...*brushes his hair back* Hey Itachi..
Ita: Hi Naruto.
Naru: You know I wasn't greeting you. What do you think I should do about Sasuke?
Ita: My opinion would be totally biased from my point of view. But you shouldn't just let him off so easy.
Naru: I know that but...he was my first love. He'll always have a soft spot in my heart.
Ita: You being with him is tearing you apart.
Naru: I know I know! I can't help it...Sasuke came and filled that void in my heart. But now he's only making it bigger.
Ita: ...What if someone else filled that void in his place?
Naru: Really? Like who?
Ita: If I tell you that, it won't mean anything. But my mom said that the thing we crave for most is always right in front of our noses.
Naru: Your mom sounds wise...
Ita: She was. She would have loved you too.
Naru: Oh please...*sighs* I better get to bed. Where did you sleep last night?
Ita: Why, what's wrong?
Naru: Nothing. Good night. *walks up to his room* Itachi...*picks up his night shirt* Why do my clothes smell like you?
