I woke up at 5am refreshed and ready to tackle the day. I thought about texting the cousins just to be spiteful, but opted against it. I left my laptop at work yesterday, so my bag wasn't all that heavy. High waisted capri leggings and a mid drift showing tshirt. My earbuds in with music and hair up. I was set.

Shisui thought I was crazy before. What I didn't tell him, was that I was running past the office and making my way back. If I hit the street at 5:30, I'd easily make it to the office by 5:45. My plan was to run five miles once I arrived at the office. My smart watch would alert me to when I was there.

I ran. I ran like there was no tomorrow. I always found comfort in running and swimming. Maybe because of the solitude, maybe because I could tune everything and everyone out. The outside world didn't exist. I preferred running on a trail, or even a track, the city was busy, but it was still relaxing.

I paced myself, my breath steady and muscles pumping with adrenaline. I didn't want this to be a fast, record setting run. Exactly at 6:30, I was in front of the building. I made my way to the gym floor and found a locker for my bag. I kept my personal phone on me since it had my music and set off into the gym.

I stopped dead in my tracks. There before me was a sight I didn't expect to see. Itachi Uchiha taking his shirt off. I know, calm your tits, I got it. Okay, calm my tits, but just look at him. Why does this whole damn family have to be so damn sexy? Did one of their ancestors sell their soul to devil? It had to be all the souls. Every male would be sexy as fuck, but their soul was given to the devil. That's it, I figured out their secret. Just in time for Itachi to notice me staring.

There was his signature smile. Soft and knowing. Welcoming too. I smiled back and made my way to him, pulling my earbuds out. He grabbed a towel and handed it to me as we met in the middle of the gym.

"I'm surprised to see you here this early." He said.

"I could say the same to you. I decided to run to work today. Wanted to check out the gym before I shower and find some breakfast."

"Want some company?"

"For breakfast?" It was the dumbest comment I could ever make. But he didn't skip a beat with his answer.

"I was thinking the shower."

I was thankful for my face already being flush due to the run, "So all of you have the flirt gene, good to know."

"You didn't say no." He noted.

"I didn't say yes either. But breakfast sounds nice."

Itachi laughed lightly and again, I found myself melting. All of them had their own distinct laugh and smile, but they all made me weak in the knees. Maybe not the right description, they all made me want to fall in bed with them. That's more accurate. Obito on the other hand, he did make me weak in the knees, but I kept telling myself it meant nothing.
"If I'm going to have company for breakfast, then I'll go ahead and shower now. Give me 15, okay?"

"I'll meet you at the elevators."

"Okay."

I made my way to the shower and quickly rinsed off. My hair was in a pony tail so I let it down and brushed it, it was clean, so there wasn't a crease after it's short time up. I dressed quickly and dusted light make up on. My gray slacks and a black blouse, simple and easy. I opted for flats today.

When I reached Itachi at the elevators he reached for my bag. With a sigh, I handed it over. He chuckled again at my behavior and we got on the elevator. I snuck a glance at Itachi, he was wearing black slacks, a common color of these men, and a white button down with red pin stripping. Itachi had a necklace on that was barely visible with his undershirts, but I had seen it when we were in the gym.
