Chapter 25
"What do you think you are doing?" Itachi asked softly, it wasn't a tone as if he was mollycoddling her but that he was burning with so much rage that he wanted to beat the girl in front of him to pulp. The tone he used felt so deadly, cold, uncaring. Naruto watched the others quietly, they had all either shivered or flinched at the tone. Everyone knew, they all knew to watch out for how an Uchiha behaves. Usually they don't show it but in instances like this, where one is extremely pissed off, they will make sure you feel their wrath. "I... I- he! He is a cripple! Why would you waste your time on this... this piece of trash?!" The girl was screeching , still thinking she was in the right and she couldn't tell that Itachi was getting madder and madder with every passing heartbeat.
"Itachi please." Naruto started, hoping to calm Itachi down. He could see the older man clenching his fist very tightly, almost like he was getting ready to break the girl's nose. Itachi just looked at Naruto as if telling him not to interfere. "Don't say his name you worthless piece of sh*t." she hissed. Itachi twitched, trying to hold himself back. He knows he shouldn't cause a scene but no one here had even raised their phones to start taking videos since the moment she started causing trouble by insulting Naruto. Those who had been using their phone has put their phones down as a sign that whatever happens in here will stay in here. The cafe patrons were all regulars and knew the couple are both polite and well-mannered, plus it had been the waitress that had started it by being rude. He could most definitely punch the living day lights out of the waitress and even if she had told the police what had happened they would not believe her as no one in the cafe would even want to side her. Every possible scenario he could think of is all working to his advantage but he knew Naruto would not be happy about it as the blond boy was too kind.
"You. Are. Fired!" The manager finally came out from the back after trying to dealing with some customers over the phone. "WHAT?!" she screeched, making everyone cringe at the . Naruto and Itachi being the closest thought their eardrums broke from that. "Naruto?" Itachi called out softly to check if his love one was okay from that high pitched screech. "Hmm?" Naruto hummed out as a response, making Itachi relax a little bit. "YOU! You caused me to lose my job!" she screamed at Naruto when she heard Itachi talk and Naruto reply. She tried lunging at Naruto. She took a swipe at him and her sharp poorly done manicured nails slicing Naruto's cheek. Two red lines appeared on his face. Itachi watched in as rage boiled over when his beautiful boyfriend was scratched. It wasn't even a light scratch. Blood beaded on the lines and ran down Naruto's cheek profusely. She was pulled back a and restrained by one of the customers nearby before she could take Naruto's eyes out, the others on that same table had stood with their hand reaching into their jacket pocket. They pulled out a badge, police badges. "You are under arrest, girl. For harassment and attempted assault. Uchiha-sama, you may press charges if you wish to." One said, knowing full well that Itachi wants to do so. Itachi's fist was clenched so tight that he almost broke the skin of his palm. He saw the manager was fussing over Naruto and gesturing for him to finish dealing with this foul disgusting fan girl. "Oh yes I will. I will make you pay for disrupting peace in here. I will make you pay for hurting him, for making him upset and I will make your life hell. How could you treat a person like how you treated my love." Itachi almost sounded like he was hissing. Hearing Itachi refer to Naruto as his love, made the boy blush. "We'll make sure of it." The officer said, nodding at them. They were about to pay before leaving but was stopped by Naruto. Naruto offered to pay for their tab and they had a light banter about who's paying but Naruto managed to slap his card onto the machine while they were distracted. "Ahaha okay then. You win this time. Next time you wouldn't get away with this." The officers joked, trying to keep a serious and straight face.
"Are you okay?" Itachi muttered as he dropped onto his knees to check on Naruto. The rest of the customers knees better than to gawk. The couple probably needed some privacy and lesser attention. "I'm okay. Get up. You shouldn't be kneeling in front of me. An Uchiha should never kneels in front of anyone." Naruto said as he tried to get Itachi to stand. Although he was getting really tired, he tried not to let it show on his face. "You are not just anyone. You are the most beautiful and my precious boyfriend." Itachi teased, knowing how Naruto would blush bright red whenever complimented like that. Naruto slowly felt like it was getting harder to breathe. He tried taking a larger lung full of air but nothing seems to be coming through the tube. Itachi started to notice Naruto's labored breathing. "What's wrong Naru?" Itachi muttered, reaching out. Naruto gripped onto Itachi's sleeves as he attempted to get oxygen through the tube. "I- I can't breathe. Nothing is coming through."
"What." Itachi frowned as he thought quickly what could be possible solution. "Itachi. I can't. I can't breathe." Naruto said quietly as he started to panic. "Its okay, anata. Shhh." Itachi tried to calm Naruto down. Some people came over to help quietly to not alarm Naruto. One looked at the tank and tried to find fault while the other examined the tube to see if there was any problems with it. There was indeed. A huge crack that spilt open the tube. It looks almost like someone intentionally stepped on it. They quickly sprinted to look for tape to force the oxygen to stay in the tube and not escape through the cracks instead. The manager had already called an ambulance and gestured to tell Itachi that the ambulance is coming in five minutes. Itachi tried to make sure Naruto was still breathing as he felt the small hands that were gripping his sleeves loosing its grip. "Naruto? Come on."
"I'm tired Itachi." Naruto muttered. Shit shit shit.
