So this story has been sitting on my laptop since 2009, I finally decided to fix it up and post it. It is rated mature in case I decide to put a lemon in the next chapter. Enjoy.

He knew he was sick. He knew that there was something wrong with him. But still he didn't care about it when it came down to the single entity that caused him to be sick it didn't matter to him. He was never abnormal as a child; really it hadn't started until he turned eleven years old. That was when he fell in love with his brother.

His brother. The flesh and blood that was as close to him as his own parents. The one that he had been raised with since the first time he had gone into the house in his mother arms. He wondered at times why this had to happen, why did he have to fall in love with Itachi? Was it something that couldn't be helped?

Sometimes he thought that maybe it was because he had an isolated childhood. They had basically lived alone with Itachi raising him. He remembered when he was around two or three years of age being bathed by his brother. He remembered Itachi singing to him while he was being washed.

That was one of the earliest memories that he could recall. At that time his parents had just gone through a messy divorce. Both he and Itachi lived with there mother, rarely seeing his father and even less likely to see his mother. Their mother had gone away with her new husband, she had become vain and greedy, her new husband supplied her with everything she wanted, and she simply ignored her children.

Her beauty is what helped her get her husband and once she married him she completely left their lives in an emotional and physical sense. Sasuke really didn't mind learning the most important things about life from his brother. Those were the memories that really meant the most for Sasuke.

When he was taught how to tie his shoes, or learned how to ride his bike, he even remembers Itachi being there when his class was singing in some event he had long forgotten. Those were the memories that he remembered most as a child. The only time he ever saw his mother was when her new husband had to go alone somewhere, which was rare to none most of those days.

But the memory that stuck with him the most was the night of his eleventh birthday. That was the night that he had fallen in love with Itachi. It was a hot July that year. His mother was off on one of her many lavish trips again. By then it really didn't bother him anymore that she was gone because he barely knew her.

Itachi had taken him to Great America; it was so hot they could barely have fun. But they managed to win a huge teddy bear, ride a few rides and enjoy themselves. During the course of the day it had managed to get abnormally cooler and right before they left they decided one more ride.

The Ferris wheel, they made it just in time for the last ride, Sasuke climbed in first then Itachi. The ride started up and Sasuke looked out and watched as they lifted off of the ground. Trying not to be afraid of how high they were going up.

At that time he was afraid of heights and that was the first time he had realized it. He turned away from Itachi not wanting him to see the tears welling up in his eyes. He figured that he might get laughed at or teased for being scared of something childish.

Then the Ferris stopped right on top, and Sasuke felt Itachi hand on his shoulder and he heard the kindest words in the world.

"Sasuke don't be scared, I'll always be here to protect you." Sasuke turned towards Itachi with the tears streaming down his face.

Sasuke pressed his face into Itachi's chest and cried as Itachi told him that it was okay. Sasuke quickly whipped away his tears then smiled up at his brother. Itachi pressed his finger against his forehead and smiled back as Sasuke grabbed his head with a frown on his face. Then they laughed as the Ferris wheel started back up and started heading down.

That's when Sasuke opened his eyes and for the first time he noticed how beautiful his brother was. How kind and thoughtful he was to him even though he was just a little kid. It caused his heart to flutter and a blush to spread across his face and he came to the realization that he was in love with his brother. Itachi saw Sasuke looking at him with awe and asked him what was wrong. He quickly changed his look and stuttered a nothing before they reached the bottom and left the ride.

Once they had gotten home that night, they said a quick goodnight and Sasuke headed to his room. Sasuke sat up all night wondering if he could live knowing that he was in love with his brother. The next morning came and went and years passed, sometimes he could hide it and hang out with his brother, but other times he could barely make it being the same room with his brother. At those times it was always a battle with himself as he kept from stuttering and blushing.

He didn't want his brother to find out unless he told him. But he highly doubted that those words would ever slip from his mouth Almost ten year had passed since that day and even now it was hard to hide the feeling sometimes. Now at the age of almost twenty one he was waiting at the airport for the plane to Las Vegas next to his beloved brother.

They had been living together since he had turned eighteen. They were renting a house near the University that they were both attending. Even though their mother had ignored them most of their young life, she still got her husband to give them money as she saw fit.

Right now their education was the last thing on either of their minds. They were going to have a fantastic time in Las Vegas and celebrate Sasuke's turning of age the right way.

"Excited Sasuke?" Itachi asked as they boarded the plane.

Sasuke went and took his seat next to the window. "Yep, I've never been to a casino, I've never been drinking, and now I can do it all at once." If it hadn't been for the full plane he would have been laughing madly after saying that.

"Yeah, but don't go overboard. We wanna get home in one piece." They laughed as the plane started to leave the deck.

They were off to Las Vegas the city of sin, secrets, and enough fun to last a decade or so give or take.

Sasuke looked out of the window as the runway got smaller and they headed straight for the Forbidden City.

They entered their hotel room in one of the many casinos that was in Sin City. There were two beds, a big screen television, a desk, and what usually came with hotel rooms. Sasuke tossed his bag on the bed near the window, it was his almost birthday and he got what he wanted.

Itachi flopped on the bed grabbing the remote sighing glad to be on a soft bed, instead of an uncomfortable plane seat next to a crying baby. The restraint he had used to not toss the baby out the emergency exit had made him quite tired.

"Tomorrow Sasuke! Can you believe it, twenty one?" He yelled laughing as Sasuke jumped out of his skin.

Sasuke proceeded to roll his eyes. "Itachi I swear you better stop scaring me like that!" He grabbed one of his pillows and tossed it at Itachi's head.

Itachi laughed "Poor baby getting all scared." He tossed the pillow back. "But seriously twenty one, I swear just yesterday you were wetting your bed." He then pretended to be concentrating on remembering if it had been yesterday.

Sasuke tossed the pillow at his brother's head again and sat down on his own bed. "I know twenty one, I still can't believe it's been that many years since I was born. Holy shit!"

Itachi sat up and flashed an award winning smile at his baby brother. "Who would have guessed my air headed little brother would one day become a man?" Itachi got up and patted Sasuke on the head.

"Yeah okay whatever shit head." Sasuke playfully knocked Itachis hand from his head and they laughed.

"Well then, off to the shower I go." He winked at his brother and went to the shower.

Sasuke sat there and listened as the shower turned on and let out a deep sigh. He really couldn't believe that he had made it this far. He got out of his bed and walked up to the window. The lights were lit brightly in the dim sky, it really was awesome. In fact it was better then he could have imagined, the lights, the casinos, the people, though tiny as ants now. He really couldn't wait to go gambling and trying out his first drink.

Sasuke turned from the window and walked over to the desk. He smiled at the sound of his brother singing in the shower which he always secretly loved. Sasuke flipped through a booklet with all sorts of deals. Anything to keep his mind from drifted would do, especially in such confining areas. He listened as the singing stopped and the water was turned off. He stared hard at the book, trying to think of something else, but there was no stopping as dirty thoughts started flooding into his mind, he really needed to stop thinking along those lines.

The door opened and Itachi stepped out soaked from head to toe, the only thing covering him was a tiny towel barely covering anything. At least that was what he looked like in Sasuke's mind. He kept his face down staring at the book as his imagination continued to run wild

"The showers all yours Sasuke." Itachi said as he went to his bag and began digging through, with not one clue as to what his dear brother was thinking.

"Thanks." Sasuke walked as fast and casually to the bathroom as he could without looking suspicious. Once he made it to the door he looked over and saw the toned backside of his brother. He quickly closed the door and felt as his face heated up and an erection come over him from just that sight alone.

He really couldn't help himself when it came to Itachi, it got him bothered just looking at him without a shirt on. They hadn't been swimming together in a couple years, after almost getting caught. But there was nothing that a nice hot or cold shower couldn't cure. Sasuke tossed his cloths off and made his way into the shower. He turned on the water and let it wash over his body. He couldn't even jack off quietly, when ever he did he always ended up moaning out his brother's name.

After letting his excitement die down he washed himself and finished his shower quickly. He made his way into the room and made his way to his bed. He looked at his brother and realized he was fast asleep by now, with the television on and looking very lovely. His lips looked so luscious, how he wanted to have those lips on him. He shook his head, feeling as if he had been possessed by the perverted version of his self.

He hadn't slept in the same room as his brother since they'd gone camping with one tent. Now he knew why. He dried himself off tossed some cloth on, turned off the television and jumped into bed. Sasuke was just happy to be here with his brother celebrated his birthday. He also couldn't wait until tomorrow. He'd have to push off all his sinful feeling. He was here to have fun, not to fantasize about Itachi like some perverted creep.

Morning always came to soon in Itachi's opinion, he was always amazed at how bright eyed Sasuke would be at eight in the morning, That wasn't exactly very early but Itachi liked his sleep enjoying every moment snuggled in the warm covers.

"Good morning Itachi!" Sasuke half yelled as he flipped through the news paper.

Itachi grabbed a pillow and plopped it over his ears.

"Rise and shine sleepy head!" The pillow hadn't worked.

Itachi tossed his covers off of himself grumbling something incoherent, he yawned and stretched. "Cheerful as ever I see." He wiped the sleep from his eyes and jumped up and began to sing a classic song. "Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Sasuke!" He walked to the restroom. "How old are you? How old are you?"

Sasuke proceeded to roll his eyes, Itachi looked out of the bathroom with toothpaste in his mouth. Sasuke groaned as he answered in song. "I'm twenty one years old, I'm twenty one years old." Itachi gave him a thumb up and went to finish brushing his teeth.

He walked back out and continued to sing. "He's twenty one years old!" He stepped in front of Sasuke and grabbed onto his hands. "He's twenty one years old!"

Sasuke was about to have a heart attack, he didn't even remember the last time he had held Itachi's hand.

"Now Sasuke, I give you one thing for your birthday." Itachi bent down and eyes met. Sasuke won't look down at those lips, he wasn't about to blush, and his wildest fantasies of his brother making out with him was not about to happen. Or was it?

As Sasuke went through mental turmoil, Itachi finally finished off his sentence. "You get one birthday wish, anything you want." He then proceeded to kiss his dear brother on the forehead, he quickly turned and went to get dressed.

Sasuke sat there frozen from the kiss that had felt so wonderful on his head. He turned in his chair and looked back down at the paper at the desk. He counted backwards from ten and felt himself cool down. Once he was able to think of something other then his stupidly sexy brother he turned around.

"Thank you..." Sasuke looked over at Itachi wondering if a thank you had been right. Itachi turned to him and smiled at him before going back to putting his cloth on. Sasuke loved that smile, but that wasn't what he was here for, he suddenly jumped out of his seat. "I'm twenty one today and this is Vegas so let's get a move on!"

Itachi looked at him oddly then chuckled as he found some cloths to wear. From the corner of his eye he watched as Sasuke pulled out a long piece of paper.

"We don't have a minute to lose." Itachi shook his head when he saw the schedule in his brother's hand. "It's eight o'clock in the morning Sasuke. This is the place where you go out at night."

"I don't want to hear it Itachi, there are plenty of things to do now." Sasuke finished up his list of things to do today. "Now hurry up, we have to leave soon."

"Sure, okay." Itachi sighed out loud as finished getting ready, there was no arguing with Sasuke once he made up his mind. But that didn't stop him from trying.

"At nine we need to be at this buffet in the Bellagio, they opened at seven so I've given you more then enough time to sleep." He gave his brother a smart glance before returning to his list. "At ten thirty we..."

"Sasuke." His snatched the plan from his hand. "This is the place to be spontaneous!" He threw his hands into the air. "Not stuck to a schedule." He fell back in the bed and made it look like he was about to tear the list. No sooner had he pretended did he get a fist to the gut. Sasuke grabbed his list and went to sit back down as Itachi groaned in pain.

"I deserved that." He mumbled as the pain went away.

"Yes, you did." Came a smug reply.

"I was just playing." He got off of the bed and yawned once again. He really hated scheduling everything, but if it made Sasuke happy he would deal with it for now.

Sasuke got up and went to grab his phone, wallet and put on his favorite bracelet. "Okay Itachi let's go." He walked to the door.

"Your happiness is the only thing that matters since today IS your birthday." Sasuke smiled at hearing that, in the end Itachi would always be there.

He didn't need to respond, Itachi already knew what he would say. Sasuke decided today he could forget all his worries and have fun, with his handy schedule in tow of course.

"Look at that Itachi." Sasuke's eyes seemed to shine as they passed another jumbo sized slot machine, even bigger then the last one they had passed.

Itachi just smiled and shook his head as Sasuke inserted a ten into the machine and pulled at the handle. The lights and noise were both loud and bright as Sasuke watched in a trance as it spun around. Then it finally stopped and hit complete blanks. There went another ten down the drain.

"Having fun Sasuke?" Itachi asked, as Sasuke took off skipping through the casino, eyes shining brightly in childish delight.

"Yes!" Sasuke proceeded to jump for joy looking like a ten year old in a candy store. That's when a security guard stopped him and asked for ID, this had literally been the thousandth time that night, because admittedly he did look like a fifteen year old. He showed his ID the guard and they were on there way again.

They finally made their way out of the casino, after playing a couple of more machines of course, and walked down the sidewalk. "So what to do next Sasuke?"

Sasuke pulled out his phone and looked through the checklist. He check marked the one hour at the casino off the list. The last thing they needed to do tonight. "Well everything is done for today except going to a club…" Sasuke hadn't picked one yet. "Let's go back to the hotel and change while I figure out where to go."

Itachi listened and followed Sasuke back to the apartment. They got ready and put on some sexier outfits. They had purchased them before leaving knowing some of the uppity clubs didn't let just anyone in.

Sasuke searched the internet looking over all the possible clubs they could go to. It was overwhelming to say the least, and he was beginning to second guess if they should go at all.

He felt his brother behind him, that body heat was so sexy. Sasuke really needed some help, he shook his head. He really needed to get off of that train of thought.

"There are so many damn places." Sasuke turned his laptop off. "Wanna just go back to the casino?"

Itachi stared at his brother for quite sometime with a smirk on his face that said he had a plan.

"Already got somewhere in mind?"

"I got the perfect club." Sasuke visible gulped. But pushed any doubt down, he could trust Itachi, maybe.

"What the hell are we waiting for then?" He grabbed his phone and followed his brother out.

So there you go first chapter done, I'm not sure if I want this to be a two chapter of three chapter. As always thanks for reading and reviews loved. Until next chapter. ~
