brotherly love; part 4:

*Flashback*

Sasuke looked up at his big brother and felt his heart twinge as he looked at his cool, icy eyes and emotionless face. He felt sad every time he looked at his brother. Sad that Itachi was sad. Sad that Itachi was so cool to him. Sad that, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t make Itachi, the only one he had ever felt anything resembling love towards, smile.

Sasuke had known for a while that he liked his older brother, but he was afraid to tell him. Afraid Itachi would laugh in his face. Afraid that he would be even colder towards him. He didn’t tell anyone how he felt, not even Naruto, his best friend. He knew Naruto would just shrug it off, think nothing of it and accept him, but everyone else might not. Though he didn’t show it, Sasuke was deeply afraid of rejection.

Finally, one night, he had gotten sick of seeing the same dull expressionless look on his brothers face. He stared at Itachi for a few minutes and he stared back at him, neither saying anything. Suddenly Sasuke launched himself at his brother, taking Itachi by surprise, Sasuke had tackled his brother to the ground and was now on his hands and knees above his brother, He lowered his head and kissed his big brother on the lips for the first time.

“Daisuki, Nii-chan.” he said after he had pulled back.

Itachi stared up at his brother, still shocked and not quite comprehending what had just happened. A hurt expression suddenly adorn his little brothers face and he blushed slightly, making the young boy look even cuter than normal, and started to get off his brother.

“Gom…” he didn’t get to finish his apology when his brother kissed him. Relief washed over Sasuke’s face when he realized that his brother was, in fact, kissing him. Itachi pulled away a few seconds later.

“Daisuki, Sasuke-chan,” he said as he sat up and pulled Sasuke into a tight hug. He looked down at his brother when he felt his body shaking and saw that he was crying. “Douka shita no?” he asked, concerned.

“You don’t know…how long I’ve…waited to hear you say…those words…”he managed to say through his tears. “Arigatou.” he said, barely audibly.

Itachi tightened his grip on the young boy. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited to say them.”

*End Flashback*

Sasuke smirked at the memory and put his arms around the man laying asleep in bed next to him. He rested his head on his bare chest and listened to his steady slow breathing and the pounding of his heart. Sasuke adjusted himself so he was in a more comfortable position and felt him falling asleep also.

“Daisuki, Itachi…” he muttered to the sleeping person next to him before falling asleep himself.


He was woken up the next morning when Itachi sat up.

“What time is it…?” he asked sleepily.

Sasuke looked at the clock. “Seven twenty…” He sat up abruptly, fully awake. He quickly got dressed and saw the red mark on his neck was still there. He quickly put on a t-shirt that covered it and kissed his still half a sleep brother on the lips and headed out the door without grabbing anything to eat.

“Love you too…” said Itachi, falling back down on the bed.

Sasuke ran up to Naruto, who he was surprised to see still waiting for him.

“Gomen.” he said quickly, blushing.

“It’s okay.” said Naruto, smiling, “Let’s hurry up and go before we’re late.”

“Okay.”

They started to walk to school, Naruto talking about ramen, big surprise there. He suddenly stopped and looked at his friend. “You’re actually awake…how?”

“Huh?”

“You’re usually still half asleep…Who are you and what have you done with my Sasuke?”

“Your Sasuke? Since when did I belong to anyone, let alone you, Dobe?”
