itanaru

the crush

Itachi couldn't stop staring at the 9 year old. He had messy golden locks and bight blue eyes. His cheeks were adorned with wisker like marks.

"Nii-san naruto is my friend, not yours!" He heard his brother whine. naruto ingored sasuke complaining and continued to stare at Itachi.

"Your right, I head to my room...." Itachi stated absently, only briefly looking at his brothers face before looking back at the blond.

"Naruto!" Sasuke screamed. He was frustrated at his brother and naruto.

They were ignoring him !

Upon hearing her youngest scream, mikoto ran downstairs to see what the problem was.

Finally naruto turned away and stared longingly at a pack of ramen. Itachi noticed this and offered to make ramen for naruto.

"Are-" he was cut off by his mother who just entered into the kitchen.

"Hello boys, are you hungry?" She directed at naruto and naruto but looked Itachi square in the face. Naruto shook his head. He was about to comment on naruto not wanting ramen,  but naruto's stomach beat him to it, it released a growl before naruto shifted to muffle the noise.

"Itachi" mikoto said in a soft tone.

"Yes okaa-san? He asked politely

"Could you find me that one cooking book in you father's study" she asked. Itachi found this very very very odd, as his mother never owned any cooking books.

It was strange but he did go to his father's stuyd which was surprising empty, his father was ALWAYS in his study.

Mikoto waited for a couple of minutes before announcing "I'll be right back, I don't know what is taking Itachi so long" she said before leaving the kitchen ( more like running out of the kitchen)

There was a knock before the stuyd room opened, itachi watched as his mother stepped inside.

"Itachi, I have something to discuss with you" she said, she was no longer smiling, but rather had a serious expression.

"Please go ahead, okaa-san"

" you seen to have a crush" mikoto said not beating around the bush.

Itachi stared at his mother dumbfounded. He tried to comprehend what she said, finally he reached to the conclusion that his mother was going insane.

"Me? Like someone? Since when? He asked out, forgeting his manners.

"Yes, since now, Itachi I can tell, it's a mother's intuition" she said while grining, this was his son's first crush and she was proud of him.

"Alright who do you think I like?"  He sneered, his mother squirmed. He was being  really rude.

"Naruto" she said, trying not to smirk. She couldn't wait for the blush that would take him by surprise.

"Na-naruto" he said his eyes widening. He could feel his cheeks heating up, he had to bit his lip from yelling out the naruto was the most adorable creature had ever seen. He looked down at the floor, how could he be acting foolish like this.

"Oh itachi, it's alright" mikoto wispered, taking her beet root son in her arms, she held him until he started to struggle. She could see a mixture of anger, helplessness and determination on his face, she shut her eyes waiting for her son to lash out at her. Instead, she heard a almost timid voice call out to her.

"Okaa-san, how do I make him like me back?"
