The Fox and The Weasel at Red Dawn: rewrite!

Chapter 4: The Itachi and Naruto meeting

It was dark out, with the moonlight coating the village. There, on top of the Hokage Mountain, stood alone figure. 'I used to think that this was beautiful, but not anymore it appears,' the cloaked figure thought as he stared down at the leaf village from on top of the second hokage's head. He pulled back his hood a bit to reveal it was Uchiha Itachi. 'I had to leave. I couldn't take anymore of the council's constant ordering.' He stood there for a couple of minutes before he heard someone coming. He quickly hid in the bushes. He watched as a figure walked over to the fourth hokage's head and sat down. He watched him sigh before speaking. Itachi channeled some chakra to his ears to hear what said figure had to say.

Naruto had walken up the mountain towards his normal spot on top of the fourth's head. This is the only thing that Naruto would truly miss, as this was the place that he found sanctuary from the cruelty of the village. "Why…Why did those people have to do that? I hate it here! All the name calling, glares, insults… They think I'm an idiot, but they are the idiots. They never could see through my mask."

Flashback

Naruto had run back to his apartment after another beating from the villagers. He was only five, and he couldn't figure out why they were being so mean to hold. He could never figure out what he did against them. He didn't like the names they spat his way, or the glares that were visible every time he was around. He was so, so confused about it all.

Then, he suddenly got a great idea. 'That's it! I'll act like the stupid head they want me to be. They always want me to do that. Then, they'll finally accept me! And then, from there, I can gain attention through getting in trouble. They won't feel as threatened then! Why didn't I think of that before? They'll stop treating me like they do then. And then, I'll become hokage just like jiji, and I'll gain their respect like I've always wanted! That's what I'll do!'

And from that day on, Naruto had a mask on almost 24/7, along with a troublesome title that the villagers loathed.

Itachi had heard the whole thing, and he was surprised by two things. One, Naruto was here. Although he would never admit it to anyone, he had developed feelings for the little blonde. Plus, which is the second reason, he just heard that Naruto hated the village. Everyone knew that the boy's dream was to be hokage. He exclaimed it every day, and that was one of the things that he remembered about the blonde when he still lived in Konoha.

Itachi listened for what Naruto had to say, and since it was so quiet, he had to put more chakra into his ears.

Naruto sighed, as he was ready to leave the village, but he had nowhere to go, now that he thought about it. And he didn't have much money, since all of his money was raised through the missions that he did, and a gennin's pay wasn't very much.

'Wait,' Naruto thought. 'Is that Itachi's chakra I feel in the air?' Sure enough, he realized, Itachi was there. Naruto couldn't help the smirk of his prankster side to fall onto his expression and thought 'This should be fun'. Yes, Naruto knew how the older Uchiha felt. He could always smell the lust, love and embarrassment on Itachi whenever he saw Naruto, thanks to Kyuu.

"Oh, if only he loved me back," Naruto sighed dramatically. And yes, Naruto had a crush on the older Uchiha, but he wasn't afraid to admit it, thanks to his masked behavior. Itachi froze where he stood.

'He—he likes someone else?' That thought crushed the Uchiha.

"Man, I wish that stupid Uchiha loved me back!" Let's just say, Naruto could smell how Itachi was feeling, and he felt the slight killer intent that was coming off of Itachi, and he was trying so hard not to laugh.

'My…brother?' Anger was rolling off Itachi in waves.

'Alright, time to inform the baka.' Naruto didn't want him to try and kill his little brother for false information that he thought. That would be terrible. "Oh, Itachi, it would be forbidden, but how I wish."

Just then, Itachi did something very un-Uchiha-like; he gave a true smile. And then, "Hey Itachi, you love me back, right? I knew you were there the whole time. I thought this would be a good time to tell you." Itachi froze at Naruto's words and they were running through his head like crazy. I knew you were there the whole time. "I also thought it was really funny when you thought I was talking about your little brother. Man, no way would I like Sasuke-teme, ever! That's just nasty!"

Naruto," the Uchiha asked while he walked out of the bushes.

"Yes," the kitsune asked as Itachi sat next to him.

"Would you honor me by being my partner," he asked the blonde.

"That's if you'd want me to be your boyfriend," Naruto sighed next to him.

"What do you mean," Itachi questioned. He was nervous by Naruto's words. Had all he said before been false? Had he never wanted those words to be true and just given a terrible prank?

While Itachi was having that battle within himself, Naruto was having his own. He was torn between telling him or not. He was afraid if the news would ruin their relationship from the start. "Itachi—I…"
