They all proceeded to their next class, still oblivious to the couple that just got together. No one noticed how the two were closer to each other than usual. "Thanks 'Tachi." Naruto said as he took the coffee Itachi held out for him.
"Since when do you call him that?" Sasori asked curiously, watching the two carefully as he felt like the two was keeping something from all of them. Naruto blinked and took a sip of his coffee. "Call him what?"
"You just called him 'Tachi! Kami forbid Itachi have a nickname, un!" Deidara said.
"But it wasn't a nickname..." Naruto said, confused at them all. Everyone sighed at his innocent face. It would be the death of them someday. He could probably use that face to get away with murder. (How to get away with murder!) Deidara smiled and waved it off, mumbling something about little kid being too innocent for their own good. Itachi turned, leaning close to Naruto's ear and whispered something which made the blond flush bright red. "He's not so innocent after all." Itachi commented, hiding his smirk with his drink as he enjoyed the nice blush that coated the boy's cheeks and ears. Naruto playfully hit Itachi's arm at the teasing. "And you guys are unusually closer together than usual..." Nagato said carefully, observing their reaction. The two just continued to watch all of them, calmly drinking their drinks.
The bell literally saved the two of them from the awkwardness. How were they suppose to answer that statement? They had planned to see how long it would take for them to notice, they weren't going to ruin it now!

Sasuke was getting even more pissed off by the minute. It was getting to his nerve that Naruto was purposely avoiding him. He was so sure that Naruto would have came crawling back to him, begging to be taken back! He was the blond's first friend after all, it's not like the dobe would make much friends. If he thinks that way, he seriously doesn't know our favourite little blondie. Naruto's innocent and kind personality attracts people immediately. He doesn't need to go looking for friends, people come to him to hope for a friendship. He can literally brighten someone's day in an instant with a small smile sent their way and his calm, soothing aura helped the people around him. Everyone and anyone could work with the blond, even if they don't know the boy's name. No one would judge him, there were only two types of people in this situation that would. One is those that are jealous of him and the others are those that admire his strength and beauty.
The raven wondered if anyone was hitting on Naruto or if that stupid dobe has already fallen for someone's 'tricks'. He absolutely refuse to accept the fact that Naruto had left and have moved onto someone else. Naruto wasn't the one that broke his heart, he was the one that chose to break his blond lover's heart. He was the one that broke the fragile little heart.

"Whats wrong Konan?" Yahiko asked worriedly, when the blue haired woman suddenly stopped which caused the rest of the group to almost run into each others' backs. Earlier during lunch, both Itachi and Naruto were slightly suspicious - they looked amused at the statement from Nagato. School has finally ended and they planned and forcing some answers out of the two about why they are acting so fishy. (I don't know why Kisame came to mind... actually I do but there wasn't a particular reason. hehehe.)
The woman pointed a shaky finger at something in the direction of a big shady oak tree where a luxuriously expensive car was parked. They had walked about a block down, having squad plans to meet up in the mall where they have their chat with the two. Itachi and Naruto had said they would catch up to them and they can go first. "Thats a nice car." Kakuzu said, whistling appreciatively. His family owned a car company hence the reason why he has sort of good eye for cars.
"Not the car! Look a little bit towards the right hand side of the car! At the base of the tree!" Konan hissed and everyone shuffled around to get a better view of whatever that has Konan so worked up. Her face was all scrunched up before she almost wanted to start squealing but she kept it in for the sake of whatever little cover they had. Everyone watched as their jaws dropped lower and lower at the sight in front of them. Naruto was sitting in between Itachi's legs and the older man's arms were wrapped around protectively. They were talking to each other quietly, Naruto suddenly laughed which made Itachi smile and he leaned down to capture his lips into a kiss that he returned without hesitation.

When Itachi and Naruto arrived, they were greeted by the group staring at them as if expecting something. "Hi?" Naruto started, waving slightly, feeling uncertain about those knowing and expectant gazes. Naruto glanced at Itachi who had turned to look at him at the same time, the two shared a look before turning back to their friends. "Is there a problem?" Itachi asked, feeling Naruto's discomfort.
"Is there something you two would like to tell us?" Konan asked, her eyes narrowing and darting between the two.
"Like?" Naruto asked.
"Like the fact that the two of you are dating!!!!" Deidara almost exploded in the literal happiness. (Art is a bang!... in the butt. If anyone knows what i am talking about, kudos to you... there are two meanings to that sentence, it just depends on how dirty your mind is and how much Naruto stuff you have seen.)
"Since when?" Naruto asked, wanting to know when they found out.
"Just now. We saw the two of you sitting under a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G." Naruto and Itachi looked at them before looking at each other and dug out a folded piece of paper each. They passed it to each other and unfolded it carefully. "We got the same guess!" Naruto said, sounding delighted as he raised a hand for a high five. Itachi smirked as he slapped the palm and grasped the hand in one swift motion, pulling Naruto towards him and whispered, "you know what this means?"
Naruto pecked him on the cheek and smiled playfully. "No I do not."
"What was that paper for?"
"We were suppose to write down when we think you guys would find out and then when you guys do, we exchange the papers and open them to see each others answers." Naruto explained as the group stood so they could go around shopping. Itachi grasped Naruto's hands almost instantly when they were going somewhere. Everyone smiled at how the two looked when they glanced at each other. They looked comfortable and happy.
