Summary: Itachi had once been a 'disgrace' to the Uchiha Clan, as his father so blatantly called it. In fact, the first and only time Itachi was referred to as such, was when he met Obito.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
A/N: I love fictions with Obito and Itachi having a big brother/little brother relationship. I find it cute.
Disgrace
An Obito/Itachi Drabble

"You're a disgrace!"
"B-But father-"
"Get out of my sight, you failure!"
"Ah! Father! That hurt! Ow! Stop it!"
Itachi let his tears stream down his cheeks as he sat, stirring the crystal clear pond settled in front of him through teary eyes.
He had tried his best.
He had tried so hard to get the Great Fireball Jutsu down, but his small, three-year-old throat was weak to the burns that the jutsu could cause. He wiped the blood from his chin onto his sleeve. After he had been beaten by his angry father, he had run clearing in a not-so-clean getaway.
"Oh, Itachi-kuuuun."
"Yes, Mother?"
"Would you like to meet your cousin? He's real nice. His name's Obito and he was recently promoted to a Chuunin!"
"Oh! That would be nice! Could we, mo-"
"No."
"B-But-"
"I said no, Itachi."
"Now, Fugaku-"
"I said no. No son of mine shall be in the presence of the disgrace of the Uchiha Clan."
Strange, as Itachi frankly remembered his father calling him that one too many times to count.
"Hey, kid!"
Itachi turned towards the voice to see a boy with jet black hair and onyx eyes and… orange goggles.
"Are you okay?" He asked, concern lodged in his eyes.
"Y-Yes."
"Now, don't give me that, kid. I can clearly see you're not alright." The boy muttered, looking at the child's tattered clothing. "Tell me what happened."
"F-father beat me."
"Your father did what?!"
"H-h-he b-beat me!" Itachi wailed, emitting several sobs and not showing any signs of stopping, atleast until the boy sat down next to him, a thoughtful and sad expression on his face.
"Obito."
"H-Huh?"
"My name's Uchiha Obito, kid. And you?"
"I-I'm U-U-Uchiha I-I-It-tachi."
Obito chuckled, "U-Uchiha I-I-It-tachi? Who's that?"
Itachi smiled, laughing slightly and giggling in a babyish way at the elder boy's antics, before coming to an abrupt halt, "Obito-san….?"
"Yea, kid?"
"C-Can I… Can I call you 'Obi-nii'?"
Obito blinked, in awe for just a moment, "If I can call you 'Otouto'."
"Okay!" Itachi yelped, before pumping a fist and groaning at the pain. Obito scowled slightly before his smile returned full-force.
"Otouto, let's get you patched up, shall we?"
The next morning, Obito had told his team the reason he had missed training the day prior.
"I was helping out my little brother!"
