Oh boy it's summer vacation! We're no longer considered a sophomore, but now—technically—considered a junior! This time there's no vacations to another country but we do have the occasional trip to a water park or lake.

Sasuke seems to be hanging out with his friends more often than when he was in the lower grades from fifth grade. Mikoto and Fugaku still go to work.

Itachi and I… well, things are the same; for the most part. In the last series I said that we kiss each other when no one's around… well, that isn't really true. We just acted like nothing happened although Itachi seemed to be happier. Things just went back to normal, I guess. Although Itachi still seems to be a little out of it at times.

Ever since that day that Itachi took it to… the extreme I've laid in bed just thinking about it and what happened after every time I wake up for at least ten minutes. Today isn't an exception.

I open the door and come into the house before Itachi. I head to the kitchen with the milk while Itachi gives Mikoto the money.

"Did you guys get anything for yourselves?" Mikoto asked just to make a conversation with her children.

Itachi and I answered for the both of us. He said yes while I said no and Mikoto wasn't sure who she should ask. Eventually, she looked at Itachi and that seemed to settle it.

"We gained two minutes to our life for walking for twenty minutes. I'd call that gaining something," Itachi says as he heads for his room.

Mikoto shakes her head with a smile and I'm just glad that Itachi chose to go with my lead while I put the milk away.

As I lay in bed I can't help but think about what Itachi would've said had I said yes. I don't want my parents to know about what happened just yet. It could bring a whole lot of problems and I'd just feel really awkward. It also made me wonder what Itachi thought about it all. It would've been really nice if I could read his mind. What I wouldn't give to have mind reading for a day…

Today Itachi and I are by ourselves. Sasuke is staying the night at a friend's house, Shikamaru I think, while Mikoto and Fugaku are at work. I slept in late since I love to do that but I bet Itachi is out in the living room watching TV right now.

I finally crawl out of bed after doing my thinking then do my daily chores like making my bed, brushing my teeth, taking a shower, and all that other good stuff. I yawn while getting dressed in a white shirt with black feather designs on it with a white tank top underneath. I put on some skinny black jeans and then a black and white horizontally stripped jacket with elbow-length sleeves.

I go out my door and into the living room then into the kitchen. I get a bowl and some cereal, pour some milk, get a spoon, start mixing it around and then I go back into the living room and sit down on a couch that Itachi isn't sitting in.

"Enjoying your TV?" I ask. Itachi nods and answers, "I'm really enjoying my TV. By the way, my dear sister, good morning."

"Good morning, dear brother of mine," I say with a smile as I eat some cereal. "What are you watchin'? Is it good?"

"Mm, I guess it is," Itachi answers.

We sit and watch the TV for a while. When I'm almost done with my cereal Itachi suddenly throws the television remote on the couch. He gets up and leaves the living room into the hallway then I heard his door open and slam close. I blink in some confusion as to what happened but shrug it off.

I finish the rest of my cereal and then get up myself. I put the bowl into the sink and put some water into it and then I stand there and wonder what I should do. I can't decide whether or not I should go and ask Itachi what's wrong or just leave him to sort it out by himself. I finally decide that I should go and see what's wrong with him. I leave the kitchen and walk to Itachi's bedroom door and stand there for a moment, feeling tense. I tell myself that I'm doing this to make sure he's okay since I care for his well being. I take a calming sigh and then knock on his door.

"What?" I hear him grumble as a reply to my knocking.

"You wanna talk about what's eating at you?" I ask through the door.

"No," I hear Itachi answer.

"Not face to face?" I ask again.

"No," Itachi answers again.

"Then how about we talk through the door?" I ask once again.

It takes Itachi a moment to answer but he says, "Sure, why not?"

I listen hard for something behind his door and I can hear shuffling. I hear a very light thump by the door and I look down to see a shadow blocking some light. I smile and sit down then lean against the door, knowing that Itachi is on the other side and doing the same thing I'm doing. I think I might be hallucinating or feeling things, but I swear that I can feel Itachi's body heat from the other side of the door and it comforts me, somewhat. I rub my eyes and get the eye boogers out as I quickly think about something to say to him, or maybe just wait until he says something first. It takes a moment and I finally realize that I'm going to have to be the one who does the talking; as in start the conversation.

"So… why did you suddenly go into your room?" I ask.

"Because it was hard to refrain myself from doing something," Itachi answers after a moment.

"Is it because of that day?" I ask after a moment of silence.

"Yes…" Itachi answers. "You really do act as if nothing happened and I can't understand how you can do that. It's constantly eating away at me in my mind while you look like you don't have a care in the world. I might end blowing up like I almost did before I left the room. I don't want to frighten you."

I consider Itachi's explanation so I can think of what to say. I do have this to say: he's making it a bit hard to reply because I have no idea what I should say. I'm afraid I'll insult him or just make him space himself from me again.

"You wouldn't frighten me because you're my brother. If you need to talk, even though it's so sudden, I'm willing to listen if it makes you feel any better," I say to try to sooth Itachi. "You can't keep it locked inside all the time. If something's bothering you then you need to tell me something, at least. Don't you feel better now that you've talked to me?"

"No, not really," Itachi answered.

"Oh… well, I wasn't hoping for that answer," I mumble to myself. "Alright then, is there something else eating away at your mind that's bigger than what you've just told me?"

"Trying to stop myself is bigger than what I've said but I can't really talk it out," Itachi says.

"Stop yourself from doing what?" I ask in an attempt at getting Itachi to really talk it out of his system.

I feel the door open from behind me and I fall back. Before I know it Itachi's looming over me, straddling me. I blink in surprise to take it all in since it was so sudden. Itachi pins my hands next to my head and he leans down until he's a few inches from my face.

"From doing this," he says quietly.

"Do you feel better…?" I ask as if in a daze.

"Not really," Itachi answers.

"Oh, then this was a waste of effort. You can let me go now," I say as if this is something that happens everyday.

"I'm not getting off," Itachi says. I furrow my brow because I didn't expect this. No one's home and I guess one could say that Itachi is a little emotional in his own way right now.

I didn't have that much time to think because Itachi set his lips on mine and I felt my fingers twitch and then move into fists. Unlike the last time, I chose not to do anything, but this time I chose to react to what Itachi's doing. I actually kissed him back and I think it's because the last time when I reacted he became a bit happy. I guess it was etched into my mind that if I reacted then he would be happy.

I seem to want nothing more than Itachi's happiness.

To me it's still wrong, but right at the same time which makes it hard to choose whether I should continue or stop. It seems that just the desire to make Itachi happy won me over.

Itachi stopped kissing my lips and gave little butterfly kisses down to my chin and then we went along my jaw. I moved my head to the side and felt Itachi start to kiss the skin on my neck and I could feel a lump in my throat as my body flinched at the new feeling washing over me. That's when I chose to stop doing anything although I have a bit of a feeling it might be too late. Now he's not going to stop until he wants to although I know that nothing really bad would happen. Itachi wouldn't take it that far.

I calmed my breathing down until it almost seemed like I was just taking this into stride as if I'm lying down on the couch, watching TV. All I could think about was how I never knew that Itachi was still holding things inside of him. I didn't think that he was thinking so much about what happened on our way to the grocery store to get some milk for Mikoto. I would never have imagined that it would torture him on the inside—so he claims, although I think he might be exaggerating a little bit.

At that moment I finally understood why Itachi never really looked at anyone else. It made me realize that he loved me more than I would've thought. I started to mentally bash myself for not thinking of this sooner because it just makes me feel so dumb and stupid. I would have to ask him why he went out with that girl from before and for how long he realized he loved me as more than just a sister.

I think now could possibly be the perfect time.

"Itachi…?" I asked.

"Mm?" I heard Itachi almost grunt.

"How long have you loved me… like this?" I asked as I furrowed my brow.

I hear Itachi sigh with a little bit of annoyance as he stops sucking on my neck. He sets his forehead on my shoulder, but otherwise doesn't move. I don't move either because I just want my questions answered at this moment.

"I don't know. It progressed into something more," Itachi answered after a moment. "Anything else you want to ask me?"

"Yeah, what about that girl you went out with? I know you said you broke up with her because you didn't feel a connection, but was there more?"

"Yes," Itachi answers. "Like I said, when we first touched each other it was forgettable. I wanted to see if what I felt for you at the time was love or just a big fondness for you; I guess you could say she was an experiment."

"You shouldn't toy with people's emotions like that or use them," I mutter.

"Are you going to let me continue or not?"

"Sorry," I apologize.

"Like I said, everything with her was forgettable," Itachi continues. "But… with you, I can remember almost everything, although I can't tell you when or where it was but just that moment. I can remember all of the times you hugged me, all the times we touched, all the times we fought, and all of the times you said you loved me. It just wasn't the same with that other girl and when I realized that I broke it off with her. Are you happy now?"

"I guess," I say quietly. "So… do you feel better now?"

"I guess," Itachi answers again after a moment.

Itachi gets off of me and I sit up and rub my head wearily. He closes the door behind me and I feel my knuckles and head get hit, but nothing else. I shake my head and grumble to myself as I get up and leave for the living room since the TV is still on which also means the remote is unattended. I just push whatever happened a moment ago to the back of my mind to think about for another time.

Hopefully, Itachi will do the same and do something else to take his mind off of what happened.


REVIEWS WOULD BE APPRECIATED (which means I WANT them).
