...Inanimate pt2

Three years had passed since he met the alluring vampire Itachi... Hidan didn't forget... he couldn't forget... he remembered with a bitter smile...

When it came to the world nothing much had changed, except the fact that vampires had led themselves to their doom by starting an open war with lycanthropes... and when it came to Hidan's kind... the demonologists had become the most feared race... straight after the ancient vampires that is...

Hidan now was a leader of a small group of demonologists... not that he cared... not that he had a cause in this war... the fools that followed his orders... well, it was a good blood-sport.

He used his new position to his advantage... he would never admit it to anyone but since the meeting with Itachi Uchiha he always found someone who discretely sniffed out how the vampire is doing and where he's hiding... to be more precise Hidan was making sure Itachi is still good and un-dead. He never had met Itachi since because he didn't want to admit that he is maybe obsessed...

As far as he knew, Itachi was a complete loner... never communicated with his own kind and never stayed out of his hiding place for more than a night... He had also found out that Itachi after their meeting three years ago went on a killing spree... and then Itachi disappeared for a year just to come back afterwards and as Hidan's spies told him the crimson eyed devil had returned half dead and nearly torn in pieces by werewolves...

When Hidan heard about the massacre Itachi had brought on the vampires he was surprised because it meant Itachi had finally decided to take part in this war even if it meant that he was joining the wrong side... whichever that was.

Now Itachi was hiding again because the vampires were at his throat trying to hunt him down... and more... Hidan found out that despite his own victory over the vampire three years ago Itachi really was one of the strongest Ancients...

He tried to push the thoughts of Itachi out of his mind... it didn't work very well when he kept hearing rumours left and right... the last rumour was that the crimson eyed vampire was salvaged by a gang of vampires. Hidan was on his way to one of the un-dead hide-outs... he was informed well, he knew where to look and if those bastards had Itachi there... he would bring hell... and maybe he would make sure Itachi never finds out it was him who would save him.

He couldn't explain why he felt the way he did... he couldn't explain why he so craved to see Itachi again and why at the same time he did everything for that meeting not to happen...

It was ever so easy to slip past the guards when he finally got to the cave-like hideout. The guards most probably didn't expect anyone to appear.

As he walked down the long and dark tunnel he heard a noise, it sounded like bunch of vampires feasting or doing something of the sort, so he walked for that noise... not that there were any other turns in to the tunnel.

When he peaked around the corner... he wished he hadn't...

There was a large room with damp stone walls and there were at least twenty vampires in that room. Right in the middle there were what looked like iron shackles hanging down from the ceiling And Itachi... Itachi standing there shackled and it looked like the ancient vampire is barely holding himself up... his head hung limply on his chest with the long raven hair loose and covering his face.

Hidan saw a black silky clothe over Itachi's eyes blinding the beautiful vampire... a large wound on Itachi's shoulder, all Itachi had on his body was black jeans held on the slim hips by a metallic belt...there were smaller wounds and red bruises all over that perfect chest and stomach, the pale arms were covered with what seemed like slashed wounds. Hidan knew all too well when one could see bruises and wounds on a vampire and they weren't healing, it meant the vampire is almost bloodless and close to his end... Hidan was... infuriated... not so much by the state of Itachi... but because of the actions of those who were around Itachi.

The vampires were hissing and growling and shouting, Hidan spotted the vampire leader and he knew it's a leader simply because he was standing right next to Itachi's half limp body, Hidan's teeth gritted when the large vampire fisted Itachi's hair from behind and yanked upwards. The vampire leader leaned close to Itachi hissing mockingly.

"Oh what's the matter Itachi... about to pass out? Not so tough now eh?" the vampire leader seemed unsatisfied by the fact that he got no reaction and when that bastard brought a knife down Itachi's chest creating a long blood red line..that was enough for Hidan.

It lasted five minutes tops... after that all the vampires were laying on the floor bloodied and lifeless the bodies starting to dissolve before his raged flamed violet eyes. There was no one left to kill, Hidan fastened his big sized weapon back on his back and tried to get his breathing back to normal, his violet eyes fell on Itachi and the rage in them disappeared... Itachi seemed oblivious to what has happened...

Hidan swallowed hard... he couldn't leave Itachi here... he would die from blood-loss and starvation.

He walked up to Itachi from behind and noted that at least Itachi's back was left without any bruises... or at least serious bruises, he hated the blood stained raven hair... he hated the slight tremors shaking Itachi's body... he hated to see Itachi like this... he was close and he tried to gather his courage to touch Itachi... to free him.

Before he thought on how to inform the ancient vampire that it's him another mad urge took over Hidan when he was so close to Itachi's pale naked back... he reached out his hand, his fingertips stroked all the way down... from the neck to the lower back... Hidan realised it was the same action he did three years ago and he realised he did it now because Itachi seemed to relax because of that action back then.

The pale bloodied body shivered under that touch.

"Hidan..."

It was barely a whisper... and it was not a question... it was a statement... Hidan was tempted to smile... about the fact that this perfect beautiful creature knew it's him just because of that touch... and about the fact that the very same perfect creature after whispering his name... passed out.

It was as if... Itachi finally felt safe (?) to pass out... Hidan wasn't so sure that thought made sense but it was the way he saw it... and maybe it was better that he didn't have to explain anything right now... he doubted he could... he was shaking and he didn't know why...

He took off Itachi's shackles scooping the limp body over his shoulder. He walked fast and he didn't bother to eliminate the guards...

Hidan was going for his own hideout, unlike Itachi his more resembled a normal house... just under the ground... when Hidan finally got there it was already dawn, he made sure the doors are locked behind them as he carried Itachi's body straight for the bathroom where he washed away all the blood, he was extremely glad Itachi remained unconscious through that process he didn't want to make Itachi feel... humiliated? Yes... he didn't want to... he already had had the taste of that... maybe the taste was bitter... Hidan didn't want to think about it...

When Itachi was all clean and fresh and smelling nicely Hidan carried the still limp body wrapped in a towel for the bedroom where he managed to dry Itachi off and managed to get the limp limbs into random sweat pants and simple black vest, he find out that dressing a limp body is extremely difficult.

But When that was done he pulled a blanket over Itachi's body and placed Itachi's head on the pillow making sure the raven tresses won't be all curly when they would dry that way...

Hidan decided that Itachi now looks almost perfect, just like three years ago, he pulled out his good old knife and cut his own wrist, he could only hope that Itachi's instincts will work even when the vampire is unconscious... and they did work, when Hidan parted Itachi's mouth and pressed his bleeding wrist on it, Itachi gulped down the hot liquid starting to suck the blood out of him.

Hidan had to smile at the long black eyelashes fluttering on the pale cheeks as the vampire fed. When Hidan felt dizzy and saw black spots before his eyes he pulled his wrist away glad that he didn't hear Itachi hiss like the first time they did this... maybe it had something to do with the fact that the vampire beauty didn't wake up from his slumber.

Hidan blinked his eyes furiously to clear his vision and watched the wounds on Itachi's body close up, the vampire would be just fine... un-dead and kicking.

He left the room on wobbly legs, he himself now needed food and then sleep for his body to recover.

After he was done with his meal, Hidan as cold as he was fell asleep on his living room's couch and there was a smile on those usually cold lips...

...

His violet eyes opened after good ten hours, he gasped sharply when he saw two crimson eyes stare back at him.

Hidan swallowed realising that he woke up because he felt Itachi's weight on himself because really the perfect body was sitting on him... right on his hips, straddling him... Itachi's beautiful face though promised painful death...

His hands jerked wanting nothing more than put them on Itachi's hips. Instead they grabbed Itachi's hands when they went for his throat squeezing, Itachi leaned down hissing right in his face.

"Why you were there... why you saved me?"

Hidan pulled Itachi's hands away from his throat noticing that when Itachi wasn't starving he was damn strong. And he also noticed that Itachi was actually angry because Hidan had saved him... nothing weird with that... Hidan expected it.

"Itachi..." he choked out, not managing any other words... he wasn't happy that Itachi was angry but Itachi's body on his was whole another story... and the fact that Itachi leaned so very close to him... so very close that if he would lift his head just a tiny bit their lips would brush together.

The crimson eyes were narrowing and searched Hidan's face, the delicate hands laid on Hidan's firm chest just supporting Itachi's weight as the beautiful creature leaned back sitting up on his hips...

Hidan's jaw was clenched, the sight sent his blood for his groin.

What happened next... well... Hidan wasn't ready for it.

Itachi's hands curled up into fists starting to punch Hidan's chest."I hate you... you bastard... I hate you... why did you have to show up again?"

Hidan wasn't even thinking about stopping the perfect creature, he felt a pang of guilt in his chest just because of Itachi's weak voice and the hurt in it.

"Could of just leave me to fucking die, you bastard... I hate you!" Itachi's voice died down along with the half hearted punches, then Itachi's chest pressed against Hidan's as Itachi lied or more like crushed down breathing heavily and shakily... "I hate you..." Itachi repeated.

Hidan... didn't move... he didn't know what to do... those words hurt... and he couldn't help but think that Itachi is not completely honest... or at least Itachi didn't want to admit even to himself that he is not honest... the actions proved just that.

"Itachi..." Hidan's hands moved on Itachi's back unconsciously... he couldn't say he's sorry even if deep down in his cold heart he was sorry... but to say it aloud was different, he wasn't sure he could muster that. His fingertips stroked down Itachi's spine firmly, he shivered when the delicate body above him did... Itachi's hands on his chest relaxed from their fists.

"Stop it... I hate you!"

Hidan grinned... Itachi didn't hate him... Itachi tried to hate him because that's what his pride told him to do... Itachi liked him and that's what his pride couldn't accept... at least Hidan was sure that was the case.

"I wasn't planning to let you know it was me who saved you Itachi... but I couldn't leave you there... you were half dead..." Hidan managed to get out.

"I was ready to die..." Itachi breathed so quietly that Hidan almost missed it, he wished he had missed it...

He didn't know what to say to that so he simply played his fingers on Itachi's back in a way that would seem soothing maybe... he didn't know... he just wanted to feel Itachi... in any way... and the fact that Itachi's closeness was getting him excited...that he decided to ignore this time.

"Stop touching me."

"You're laying on me Itachi..."

"No, I'm trying to kill you with my thoughts alone."

Hidan chuckled... he was right... Itachi did like him and he was trying to hate him hard and failing... it was almost... cute. And if he had known this before he would have faced Itachi much sooner.

His hand fisted Itachi's raven hair that action earned him a growl coming deep from Itachi's throat, he ignored it pulling the pretty face upwards from his chest, Itachi's cheeks were faintly red as if the vampire would see in Hidan's eyes that Hidan had figured it out.

"Don't dare-mmmh!" Itachi managed to get out before Hidan crushed their lips together pushing his tongue in the sweet mouth, reminding himself exactly how sweet it was and exactly how good it felt...

While Hidan was pushing Itachi's tongue around the vampire was pushing his hands on Hidan's chest weakly as if to push him away, Hidan was sure that even Itachi can tell he's not using even half of the strength he possesses, it meant that the vampire didn't want to break the kiss.

And Itachi's tongue sliding against his and then pushing back on his proved it. Itachi's palms pressing against his muscled chest relaxed and then stroked, Hidan was happy... he never dreamed he would be able to enjoy Itachi again... and now when Itachi was here kissing him back and pressing all of the perfect body into his... well... he knew he deserves none of this but he would take it nonetheless.
