Kisame is starting to fall for his partner in crime…hard. How will he approach Itachi on this matter? Will they become a cute couple…will Itachi even give Kisame the time of day? Are relationships even allowed on the job? Tune in to find out if love will blossom in the Akatsuki organization. KisaIta, slight slight DeiSaso. Please enjoy and review. I accept all reviews, both positive and nice constructive criticism, but no flames.

I do not own Naruto nor that gang…I mean criminal organization, the Akatsuki. If I did, Naruto and Sasuke will become a gay couple and get married in a gay marriage acceptable state…Itachi would be mine, yum.

Notes: This is rated teen, not kids, due to a more complicated story line in later chapters and a few mature (or not so mature) words. I apologize for any of the OC (out of character) but it is suppose to help the plot along. There are obviously gay interests in this story.

Kisame's Little Crush

Prologue

"Itachi-san," I call to my associate. I look around in a haze, feeling more confused each minute. My usual optimistic self does not feel so upbeat at this moment. My head hurts s bit and my stomach isn't better off. The smoke in the club is not helping much…I guess sharks aren't immune to the effects large amounts of alcohol. I'm not much of a drinker, but Itachi and I do have the week off for our vacation. And like any other hardworking employee, we do have the right to have a little fun, ne? Being an Akatsuki member is fun, believe me, and it does have its perks, but like any job, it does have its stressful moments. And stressful moments do need to be relieved ne? Whatever, I don't think my jolly blood lusting self is having much fin at this moment.

I push my way through a crowd of dancers and stumble over to the bar to resume my search for mi amigo. Sure enough, I find my co-worker in conversation with a pretty young woman…well, a one sided conversation. The young woman is flirting with him rather, while he stands there like a lump on a log. Something seems a bit off though. A small smirk graces his perfect lips. I've known Itachi to be reserved or shall I say rude with fangirls. Any approach on the female's part usually results in a death glare. Tonight is a bit different, I shall say. My co-worker seemed to have a bit too much to drink…ne?"

"Itachi-san."

No response.

"Itachi-san."

Still no response.

"Itachi-san, Itachi-san, Itachi," I repeat over and over, getting his attention.

"What, Kisame," he looks up and glares at me, his sharingan eyes looking a bit glazed over.

"Don't you think its getting rather late, Itachi-san?" I ask with a nervous toothy grin, despite my mood.

"I'm busy," came his annoyed reply.

"B-but, what abou-?"

"I'm sure you are capable of going home by yourself, Kisame."

After he said that, I felt kind of crestfallen, on top of my headache and other issues, if you will. I don't know why…criminals don't usually feel rejected when their co-worker leaves them at a bar for a chick, do they? Maybe Itachi is fun to walk with…I don't know! I look at my partner then at the female who he decided to leave me for. She is the stereotypical beautiful, with long dark hair, tan skin, and deep brown eyes. Leave it up to Itachi to get all the girls. Why did I have to be the one with blue skin and gills…life is not fair, ne?

"Very well then, Itachi-san," I say, not revealing my disappointment. "I see you back at the house," I swing my sword over my shoulder and walk out.

Alright, prologue done. This and the next chapter is a little short, but I'm pretty sure the chapters after that are longer. Hope you guys liked it. In case you didn't notice, I had Kisame add "ne?" after a few of his sentences since he usually uses it in the show. "Ne" is something added at the end of a sentence which means "Do you agree" or "Right?" I personally think it's cute…it's the same as Deidara using "un/unn" or "yes/no" after his sentences. Kisame uses his less than Dei-kun's, but he does speak pretty polite.
