Chapter 19: Summertime

He wasn't sure why he wanted to ask Naruto to move in with him. It was an urge that was getting stronger as the days passed until it was the day of the blond's graduation. He had to do it besides pick up the fox and cat. After experiencing his love's moment that made him one step closer to being an adult, he had to look forward to his own graduation. After that, he was taking over the company that his father left.

Sitting on the couch that was going to get picked up, Itachi stared at the boxes that littered the apartment that was once his. He upgraded finally – a place that accepted pets. He wanted that. Sighing, he waited for that knock from his old friends and teachers that were helping out. He got along with all his teachers when he was in high school and now it came in handy. Kisame had a truck that would haul the couch and other furniture too big for his car.

Then he'll have to help Naruto move. At least it was close for the blond to see his family, which was another plus for him.

Hearing the knock on the wooden door, the Uchiha rose from where he sat and strolled to the door. Opening it with his other hand pushing up his glasses, he stared at the four friends he had in his high school career. They didn't seem to have changed to the ebony haired man.

"Where's the stuff hm?" Deidara complained as he walked into the room with his flip flops left at the door so he could walk into the living room.

"Everywhere Deidara." Itachi mumbled as he glared at the long-haired blond. "Go ahead walk right on in."

"So what made you move? Was it that kid you're seeing?" The pale Zetsu questioned as he walked into the room as his twin brother looked around.

"Yeah. He's heading to college so I wanted to have a new place and for him to move in." Itachi answered as he closed the door, hoping the door didn't get another knock. It usually went that way for him it seemed like it.

"What's his name again?" The tanned twin brother asked – his name Zetsumori – before sitting down on the arm of the couch.

"Uzumaki, Naruto." Itachi answered again, seeing the long-haired blond stop in his tracks and turn on his heel to stare at him. "What?"

"Then that was you that left that voicemail for me! Damn it Itachi. Why the hell are you seeing him? I thought he was seeing your brother hm." Deidara ranted as he pointed a finger at the ebony eyed man.

Shrugging, Itachi answered, "He was until Sasuke cheated on him. Why do you think he thanked you for changing lab partners?" Looking at the blond, the Uchiha noticed the sapphire eyes change from having the spark of anger to a smolder.

"Oh. I didn't know. I heard that they got into a fight at lunch but that was it. Kisame, Kakuzu wouldn't say anything else besides that. I even went to Gai and asked and it was the same answer." Deidara said, looking at the wooden floor and scuffed at it with his barefoot, leaving no mark on it.

Sighing, Itachi grabbed one of the boxes that was laying in the room. "Hidan grab the keys for my car."

"Fine fucking Christ." Hidan muttered as everyone stared at him.

"Still the same old Hidan." They said in unison before letting the Uchiha and silver haired man leave.

As he went down the stairs, Itachi wondered how Naruto was coming along with packing which probably had to be a mess since his mother broke down at the graduation ceremony. Smirking a little, he thought, she should know that Naruto was in good hands. He wouldn't harm the blond in anyway. He was gentle . . . to some things.

Letting his friend unlock the back doors, the ebony haired man put the box in the car before going back to grab some more. He'll put the small ones in the trunk then see how far along Naruto was coming. If he had some room left, than Itachi would let the graduate put some of his boxes in and they'll head in together.

He passed Deidara and Zetsumori who both had boxes and told one of them to put one in the trunk. Looking out the window that let him see the city – something that annoyed him when he was wanting sleep since his bedroom had the same wall – he sighed. Summer was here and he could feel it. He had to strip out of his pants and T-shirt for shorts and a wife beater. He rarely wore that.

Walking into the bedroom, the college student grabbed the cell phone resting on the night stand, flipping it open and stared at the background. It was a picture of him and Naruto that Kushina took for him at the graduation party for Hinata, Gaara, and Naruto. It always brought a smile to his face since the minute after the auburn haired woman took it, Naruto was tossed into a pool by his grandfather.

Pulling up his contacts, the long-haired man got Naruto's number and dialed it. Putting the black phone to his ear, he walked out to see Hidan being his moody self while he sat on the stoop with his shoes still on.

Hearing his love's voice, Itachi felt his mood brightened. "Naruto-kun, are you almost done packing. I have a little room if you have any small boxes if you want to tag along and get some of it unpacked there."

Hearing his reply, Itachi nodded to himself before taking the keys from his purplish eyed friend and got his shoes on. "Okay, see ya then."

Turning around with the door open, he smirked. "Don't break anything. Some of that is oka-san's fine china."

They nodded, sitting down where they were. "And if Kisame or anyone else comes by?"

"Tell them to wait because I'll be back." Itachi instructed, shutting the door and wanting to jog down the stairs but didn't. The last time he did that was back when he was preteen and he fell on his face from being in a hurry. He was a clumsy kid like some so he wasn't perfect.

Hopping into the beat up car, Itachi got situated and started on his way to the home that he was acquainted with. He'll have to do something to thank his love's mother and friend for getting him the house. Turning up the radio with Clothes Off by Gym Class Heros featuring Patrick Stump, he hummed to the song slightly.

Once he got to the house, he saw Naruto sitting on the steps with a couple small boxes next to him when he perked up. His blond love rushed to the car, yanking the door open and hugging the man tightly. He could see why Sasuke didn't really want to give Naruto up sooner.

Putting the boxes in the back seat and trunk, he closed them and walked into the house with both Kyuubi and Ichijo greeting him besides his boyfriend's parents.

"Are you packed up already?" Minato inquired as he leaned his head back to stare at the college student.

"Yes. Now I have to get it over there but I'm waiting for Kisame and his truck so I can haul the furniture." Itachi said, sitting down on the couch, feeling his feline friend nest in his lap.

Nodding, Minato went back to the live scores that was going across the screen for the day's soccer games.

Naruto settled next to the ebony eyed man, snuggling close to him and looking out of the corner of his eye at the glasses. Itachi rarely wore his glasses when he saw him but when he did, it made him look different to the blond. It made him look more intelligent and older to him.

"Ita, I can't wait!" Naruto squealed, glomping the Uchiha to the couch with his mother probably rushing to get the camera for a picture. Ever since they accepted the relationship, his mother has been going crazy over it. He didn't mind it though. He was loving this relationship; like a weight was lifted off his shoulders from what he had with Sasuke.

The name of his past love still brought a twitch of pain to his heart but it wasn't as hard. He saw him every now and then, usually at the supermarket with his fling who was showing heavily now it seemed like it. Naruto still earned for what could have been but it wasn't worth breaking Itachi's heart over. He had Itachi so it was better to be satisfied instead of depressed over the past.

"I know you can't. You tell me every time we talk." Itachi laughed as he grabbed a hold of the blond's waist and held him. He completely forgot about Ichijo who was probably pissed over it but she'll get over it. Looking into the cerulean eyes, he smiled.

"Then let's go!" Naruto chimed as he hopped out of Itachi's hold and toward the door. Looking back, he watched Itachi shake his father's hand and hug his mother in gratitude for having a great son. He had to bug his parents about it when he saw him do it but now he knew why.

Hopping into the passenger seat, he grabbed the seat belt and locked it in with Itachi waving to them as he proceeded down the steps. Waving to his parents as they stood in the porch, he felt the car lunge to life with Colorless Wind by Yuuki Aira playing.

When they got on the highway, Naruto let his hand out of the open window and let it skim the air with it pushing on his hand. Feeling his blond hair flutter across his tanned skin, he smiled more. He was moving out of his parent's house and actually moving in with his boyfriend. It was exciting to him.

"So what are we going to do after we get all the boxes up there?" Naruto asked as he looked over at the ebony haired man that had his bangs fluttering in the wind.

"Unpack and then celebrate. I'm sure you wouldn't mind seeing my friends besides Zetsu." Itachi suggested with a smile as he turned his head to look at the blond before turning his attention back to the road.

Nodding, Naruto went back to daydreaming with the wind hitting his hand.

Itachi felt the excitement build in his body as they got closer to their new home. It was an adventure that was worthy of summer's weather. It was going to be fun.

I had to make up Zetsu's black side's name. Sorry!
