Broken

Chapter 25: Home is Where the Heart Is

It seemed like it took forever to get everything unpacked. They had to go buy a stand for the fine china which Naruto didn't blame Itachi for it. It was his mother's so he had to protect it with all his being.

Flopping down onto the couch with a huff, Naruto stared at the filled bookcase that had books of all kinds, some of them Itachi's law books. He was finally done with his schooling and was now working on heading the company that his father left. They didn't even bother to see what Sasuke wanted.

"Done?" Itachi asked, coming out of the hallway to see his blond sitting on the couch with his feet propped up on the coffee table. Sitting down next to him, he saw him nod.

"Cable company will be coming tomorrow to get the phone, tv, and internet hooked up. I think that's it." Naruto said, scratching his eye than letting his hand fall to his side. Looking over at the ebony haired man, a knock was on the door, making him growl out.

Itachi rose and opened the door, only to be attacked by everyone that knew of them moving. Pushing his back against the wall, everyone flooded in but he was pulled away by Naruto's mother.

"This is a great place." Hinata chimed as she looked around, latched onto Gaara's arm. Pulling away from the auburn haired man, she ran over and hugged Naruto.

When she was pulling away, Naruto caught her left hand, seeing something catch the light. Looking at her face, she was smiling like there was no tomorrow. "Gaara proposed last week."

"That's great news Hinata-chan!" Naruto cheered, hugging the lavender-eyed woman tightly before dragging the other into it.

"He's changed a lot since school." Kisame mumbled as he kicked his shoes off, holding a veggie tray for welcoming them to their new home.

"You got that right." Deidara agreed as he looked at the book case that held the books and diplomas, degree, for both tenants of the house.

"Itachi, Naruto, can you come with us for a second." Kushina said, standing in the doorway with her husband by her side.

Looking at each other then them, they got their sandals on and walked out of the house with Minato closing the door behind them. Naruto noticed the challenger sitting on the road and he knew what they were wanting. Itachi didn't want to see his brother but if it had to do with their uncle, he'll listen.

The doors opened, showing the younger Uchiha and his lover before the sound of doors closing came and they walked across the street. Sasuke couldn't believe that Naruto's parents would take him here especially with the way he treated their son. Bowing to them, he sighed and spoke, "Itachi, Naruto."

"Sasuke." They said, staring, watching the Uchiha for anything. They glanced occasionally at the woman next to him but kept most of their attention to the ebony haired teen.

"Madara's out of the house, I've cut all ties to him. He has nothing in the company anymore. He was just going to use me for the company, along with my child. I thought you would like to know that." Sasuke said, his head still bowed to the two.

"What you did Sasuke hurt, I hope you realize that." Naruto began, looking at the woman who stared at him, "but I can't keep hating someone that's been my friend for years. I still don't trust you, just so you know."

"I know." Sasuke answered, standing up straight and smiling. His hand graced the bump that his love had. "We're expecting a little girl. I'm going to name her after Oka-san nii-san."

Hearing that word escape his little brother's lips made him want to cry and hug his brother. It's been years since Sasuke last called him that and he truly missed hearing. Smiling, Itachi walked over and touched the baby bump in hold of feeling his niece's kick. "I'm sure she would want that Sasuke."

Nodding, Sasuke turned his gaze to Naruto who was watching them with wide sapphire eyes. "Come on Dobe. Feel a kick."

Naruto squatted down next to his love and put a tanned hand to the expanded womb, waiting for something. He never knew what it felt like when you see and feel a woman's pregnancy. He never had any siblings so he wouldn't know. Feeling something brush past his hand quickly, he jerked back.

Sasuke watched his ex closely, enjoying the reaction that Naruto got when he felt a kick. Smiling, he brought something up. "I want to help with the company in anyway possible nii-san."

"That's good to hear Otouto-san. I'm going to need all the help I can get." Itachi said, drawing his hand away from the clothed bump. Standing up straight, he walked up to the door, opening it. "Come in. Enjoy everything."

Naruto walked in after everyone which probably surprised them. It was kinda silent when he walked in with everyone staring at Sasuke and his lover. Walking up to his old friend, he asked, "so what's her name?"

"Maiko." She answered, smiling to him. So this was the blond that Sasuke left so they could be together. It hurt thinking that she broke up a couple but at least Sasuke was responsible enough to take her in and care for her. It was better then some of her older friends who had men walk out on them because they were pregnant with their child. "It's nice to meet you finally Naruto-kun."

Nodding, Naruto walked away and brought out the drinks that were in the refrigerator. Seeing his former teachers talk with his parents, he was kinda scared of what they were telling him.

"So how have you been Naruto hm?" Deidara asked, grabbing a cup with an elbow rubbing into Naruto's arm.

"I've been fine Deidara-sensei."

"You don't have to call me sensei anymore. You've graduated and now are an adult so you don't need to."

"I'm use to it though." Naruto retorted as he watched the long-haired blond walk into the crowd. It was going to be hard not calling his former teachers sensei but they'll have to get use to it. He's still learning from them whether they know it or not.

"Oh Naruto!" Kushina hollered, rushing over to her son and grabbing his wrist. She rushed toward Itachi and stopped. "Minato and I want to give this to you guys."

Looking at the box, Itachi took it into his hands but Naruto opened the top to see something they didn't expect.

"Oka-san." Naruto hissed in a whisper with a blush on his face.

"That was from your mother. I bought you guys a few blinds to use." Minato chimed in, staring at the reaction his wife got from their son and his boyfriend. He wasn't expecting that to happen since his wife bought them bondage stuff. He never knew his wife was into that kind of thing.

"Thanks anyway. I don't know if we'll use it Oka-san." Naruto said grimly, seeing a glint in Itachi's eyes that told of no good. Hugging both his parents, he continued to feel Itachi's gaze which told him he was screwed.

"Itachi!" Hidan hollered, clapping the man's shoulder and grabbing his attention. "Nice fucking place you have here but I have to run. I left you guys a set of bed sheets."

Staring at his old friend, Itachi shook his head. His friend wasn't right in his head. Thanking him for coming, he let him out and closed the door. Smiling to everyone, he nodded to them as he walked toward the bedroom to put the sheets and present from Naruto's parents away.

"Where's Obaa and ojii?" Naruto questioned, looking around for his grandparents.

"They couldn't make it. I'm only kidding. They're on their way so they should be here shortly unless Jiraiya got lost." Kushina answered, patting her son's shoulder.

Nodding, Naruto went around to talk to everyone while Itachi did the same, getting all the house warming gifts that weren't edible. They were surprised that Sasuke did that but they didn't have it in their hearts to hold a grudge.

Walking pass his brother, Itachi stopped and stared.

"Madara killed our parents. He admitted it to me when I threw him out of the house." Sasuke said.

Love's! And it just popped into my mind when I was typing it. Who knew about Kushina? Please review.
