Ok, so im going to wrap this up now, there is a lot of foreshadowing and flash backs just so you all know as well, so get use to it. HaHa
Kk. So anyway I'm going to let you get on with the story :
Chapter 1: You don't say
Itachi twirled the keys around his pointer finger as he looked over to the younger Uchiha who took a inhale of breath before he scoffed. Even though the two hated each others guts they still had that...brotherly bond, one could say. Even though they hardly talked they knew when one or the other was upset and of course tried to help out once in while.
"Whats wrong with you?" He asked, almost sincerely.
Sasuke's cold black eyes only shifted for a brief moment and he glanced to his brother for what seemed like second. He really wasn't sure why Itachi cared but none the less he shrugged.
"Hn. Nothing" He answered dully and then turned back toward the blank television screen and leaned back against the sofa with a newly formed frown upon his handsome features.
Itachi walked over leaning his elbows on the back of the couch and looked to his brother
"Otouto...Its him isn't it?" He asked, knowing already that the cause of his brothers mopping or depression was from that one certain blond.
Sasuke scoffed "No." He muttered quickly and looked to his brother. Their eyes met, knowing he couldn't lie to him now, Sasuke turned slightly to his older brother. "Yes..." He rephrased his answer and gave a slight frown again.
Itachi chuckled and nodded, he always knew, somehow Itachi always knew.
Naruto ran around his small apartment like a chicken without it's head "Oh. My. God!" He hollered as he threw anything his hands landed on across his bedroom floor.
"Ohmygodohmygod!" He continued on, "Ah! If I can't find this shirt, I'll have a bad day! And I'm late already!" He pouted slightly as he turned and looked to his puppy."Shili..." He whined and the puppy looked up at him from his fluffy bed, ears now perked as Naruto spoke his name.
"Shili, please tell me you have it under you..." The blonde said as he went to the puppy and bent down, gently picking up the puppy from his comfort zone in high hopes that what he was looking for was under him. He, however, had no luck on it.
"Damn..." He sighed out and placed the puppy back down on the dog bed before rushing out into the living room, the dog gave no objection to his moving about and only watched his master run around the small apartment.
Naruto looked around frantically "There it is!" He squealed and then ran to the overly crowed couch and quickly grabbed the orange and black shirt that laid there all along. He took a long wift of it, hoping it didn't smell too bad from the last time he wore it. "Eh, its still clean" He muttered when he found he was satisfied with the smell. He slipped it on before he ran his hand through his hair and headed for the door, grabbing the house keys off of the coffee table.
"Wish me luck Shili!" He blubbered as he left his small apartment and rushed down and through the parking lot to his car.
Today he had an interview for a job. A job at a Host club. Of course it wasn't the best of places to work, but it paid great money and Naruto didn't plan to get into a relationship or anything of that sorts, so this job was perfect for him. He started his car and practically floored it all the way to the destination, to the host club. Club-A, they called it.
As Naruto entered the building he looked around at all the host. One was suppose to escort him to the interview room, right? He inhaled but before he could say anything, someone grabbed his hand. "Right this way, Mr.Uzumaki" A young girl said, maybe she was a year younger then him? He raised an eye brow but let her lead him, not going to wonder on how she knew he was whom he was.
She led him down the corridor to a room, all the way at the end of it, to the right. Before she left him to enter the room, she told him that the Boss-Man would be there soon to greet him.
So when Naruto found himself in the room the girl directed him too at least five minutes ago, he wondered if someone was really going to come and frowned at this thought. What kind of interview was this? He inhaled and looked down at his hands which where folded over his lap.
"Uzumaki, correct?" A deep voice came from behind him and caused the blond to jump slightly. He turned, his golden locks swishing from the motion. Before him stood a lean, maroon-haired male and almost droopy eyes who stared back at him.
"Yes, Sir..." He answered, almost unsure. When in the hell did this man come into the room? Naruto rose a perfectly formed eyebrow and looked forward again once the male was now sitting in front of him."Pretty young to be working as a host, aren't you?" The male asked. God his voice was so smooth yet so deep. Naruto took in a short breath but nodded and looked into the older mans eyes.
"I'm eighteen, but I need the money for college." He answered honestly. And, it was true. Naruto wanted to attend college but the college he wanted to go to was far to much money and so he needed a good paying job-- to get in and stay in that college.
"Well then, I suppose you've come to the correct place if its money you need and if you need it fast." The older male said and clicked his tongue, eyes looking over the blond, which caused Naruto to shift in his seat and feel as though the other was looking through him.
After several moments of silence, the red haired finally spoke up once more, "Do you know the requirements for a job such as this one?" He asked and Naruto blinked slowly as if trying to comprehend what the older male just said.
"Uhm, Yes...We aren't aloud to have any relationships with the costumer or any relationship outside of work that will make life for the host and the club harder and can cause problems." He said, shocking himself that he well memorized all of this.
The red-haired male smiled pleasingly "You'll do just fine here, when can you start?" He asked as he stood up and moved gracefully to the door before the turned back to Naruto, who stood as well.
"Uhm, When ever I guess" He answered shrugging his shoulders. The male gave a curt nod, "We'll see you here tomorrow morning, eight a.m. sharp." He commanded and Naruto nodded briefly. That was it? There was the interview? And all this time he thought he wouldn't get hired! He smiled to himself and began for the exit. He was going to be a working man starting tomorrow. Hell yeah!

Sasuke shuffled through his suitcase angrily. His stupid ass brother promised that he would of had the room to himself but the administrations refused that any one person have a room to themselves. And so he was now going to share a room. Sasuke growled inwardly before sighing. He hoped that whomever his roommate was, that he would be calm, collected and knew how to stay out of others peoples lives and their business.
He put aside some toiletries, hung most of his clothing, put the other clothing in the drawers, placed his laptop under his pillow, and put the rest of his shoes in the closet along with the suitcase.
When he finished unpacking, Sasuke stretched and decided to lie down, hoping it would calm his nerves before a commotion started to happen. He dragged his feet to his bed and sat on it, staring at the ceiling for a long time. Then, he gave a small sigh and laid back, wishing the quietness forever. And then he heard it.
First, it was just a distant barking, but it was barking nonetheless. And then someone, a person this time, yelling at another to catch the dog and never bring him back. Inhaling deeply, Sasuke noticed the commotion only got worse as more and more people began to come onto the campus and began to look for their rooms.
Since Sasuke was done unpacking and knew now he wouldn't be able to rest, he went to the door and opened it to see just what was going on in the hall on his floor of the dormitory. The moment he opened his door he immediately regretted it; the only thing he saw before he was roughly pushed aside was a white fur ball darting under his bed and then the boy who pushed him aside diving under his bed as well trying to retrieve the puppy. Sasuke gritted his teeth and watched as the boy finally grabbed the white pup and stood, grinning stupidly.
"Sorry. Sorry..." He said and a moment later the Resident Assistants (RA) were at Sasuke door, taking the brunettes' pup. The other boy gave some objection to the RA taking his dog and trying to convince them it wouldn't happen again. Sasuke sighed as he watched the boy go into the room only three doors away from his own, mopping about his puppy not being able to stay with him.
Damn, this year was going to be long with a neighbor like him Sasuke could tell already. And little did poor Sasuke know, his roommate would be just as bad, or maybe even worse.

Sasuke crossed his arms and gave a faint 'Hn' as he continued–only for a moment–to monitor the corridor of his floor before slowly turning his attention back to his room. His coal-colored eyes resting upon the unoccupied, naked bed just across from his own bed and then it started–he began to debate on whether or not he wanted to be present when his roommate arrived.
'He could be attractive, so you should stay and wait to see what he looks like.'
'No...No...You can see what he looks like when you return later on tonight...He is going to be your roomie for the rest of the year...'
Sasuke sighed out before rubbing his face with both hands. Yeah being away from the room sounded much better then waiting.
Maybe he could go down to the office and just maybe, maybe convince the administration he could have a one roomer and that he didn't want a roommate at all.
He glanced around the room one last time before he stepped out and closed the room door and turning on his heel–heading straight down stairs to the office.

Naruto inhaled, a silly smile plastered on his face. Finally he was glancing upon the college he so desperately wanted to be in. And, after a week of hard working and great pay, he was enrolled and today was the day all students were to get their schedules and find their dorm rooms. He probably couldn't be more excited!
The fact that he would have to share a room really didn't bother him that much but he was told that him being a host would have to be kept a secret. That much just might be a bit of a problem–then again maybe not. He was sure he could pull it all off after all he only worked night shifts.
Also he believed that if he stayed out of his roommates business then they would stay out of his. Simple enough right?
With a box and suitcase in hand the blond carefully made his way upstairs "Ahh! Hold the door please!" He called out as he spotted a brunette emerging from the second floor–Yes his room was on the second floor of the dorm, but that didn't bother him after all, he was always so energetic.
"Thanks!" He said, grinning and the brunette shared the grin. "You're quite welcome, yo" He said, patting the blonds shoulder before brushing pass him and continuing down the stairs.
"C-ya 'round"
Naruto nodded, that same grin still playing on his face even as he now made his way down the hall looking for room 155.
Upon finding it he opened the door as carefully as he could without dropping his things. He glanced around the room and could already tell which bed would be his since well, the other bed already had boxes and suitcases on it.
He walked over to his bed and placed his box and suitcase down, getting ready to unpack. But before he could the door opened behind him and he turned, anxious to meet his roommate. Once their eyes meet–blue to brown–the blond let out a heartily laugh.
"What a coincidence huh?" The boy with a pair of upside down isoceles triangles, one on each cheeks said cheerfully and Naruto nodded. It has only been a few minutes since they met but both boys already began to like each other, both aware that this year might just be a good one after all. "Name's Kiba," The brunette announced as he placed the last of his boxes on his own bed before turning back to his roommate.
"Naruto." The blond introduced before extending his hand for his new roomie to shake–and that Kiba did–both sharing a grin once more.
"Is that all you got?" The tattooed boy asked, nodding his head toward Naruto's belongings.
The blond felt his cheeks heat up just barely and he smiled sheepishly "Y-Yeah..." He murmured and Kiba let out a loud but short laugh, clapping Narutos shoulder "'S'all good–I was just wondering is all" He said hoping the blond roommate of his wouldn't be embarrassed about the little belongs he had.
Naruto smiled a bit more now before he turned to begin his unpacking.
"You know..." The brunette began as he too turned to unpack as well "You seem pretty damn cool...So im guessing this year is going to be a good one with a roommate like yourself. And I'm only saying this after knowing you for only a few minutes tops." He finished, turning back to Naruto with a wide grin.
Naruto chuckled flashing his own grin "The same goes for you my friend" He cooed and then they both shared a chuckle before turning to unpack once again.

Sasuke glared at his phone before taking a long inhale and placing it back to his ear. "Can you just maybe run that by me again, I'm not sure I heard you right..." He snapped out bitterly and the male on the other end only sighed. Silence stretched out and now they where only listening to each other breathe. Then after what seemed like a year the other male spoke up.
"I said, your roommate will be a relative," He repeated but his reply was more clipped now. But before the other male can go on with his explaining, Sasuke growled, "If I hate you, Itachi, what made you think I'd want a relative to room with me?" He hissed out. With a sigh Itachi continued, "And I also said I set this up for a reason. You were to get a roommate regardless anyway and you hate everyone. So I figured it would be better to put a relative with you, someone that is an Uchiha--in other words someone that will stay out of your business." He finished.
Sauske gripped his phone a bit tighter, a scowl plastered on his features but no one saw, since he was walking through an old park in the ruins of the old down town.
"Do you know who it is Itachi?" He asked, calming down a bit-- after all his brother was always right and smart--so he'll just go with it. "No." The older Uchiha sighed into the phone "All I know is I talked with the headboard of the college and made sure that two Uchiha's would share a room." He added.
Sasuke nodded even though he knew Itachi couldn't see the jester.
"Are we done?"
"Yeah. We're done."
With that Sasuke clapped his phone shut and turned on his heel, heading back toward the college. Maybe, just maybe his roommate will be there already and he can see just which relative it was. Sasuke only got to meet a few of his other relatives before the tragedy happened twelve years ago. He greeted his teeth trying his hardest not to think about it--but these memories would never leave him...
Six year old Sasuke shuffled through his small back pack as the teacher told all the student to begin packing and head home, class was over for the day. He was happy to go home today, he could show his dad and mom his straight A's he received for the beginning of the year. He couldn't be more happy. As the bell rang he shot from his seat and dashed out of school, running straight for home.
Not even fifteen minutes later he was running through his neighborhood--but something was wrong, something was off. No one was out walking their dog, no lights were on in the houses. He frowned as he looked around and came to his house ,only to see his front door wide open. His heart began to race as he moved forward, stumbling over his feet, god he was so scared, he didn't know what to think or what happened or why his front door was wide open--his mother never left anything open.
As he entered his house and began down the hall he placed his hand on the wall–even though it was only later afternoon his house was too dark for him to see while he made his way further inside. Upon coming to the livingroom he nearly slipped but gripped the wall. As he looked down he let out a whimper. Blood. He had almost slipped on blood. His eyes followed the trail with fear and he gasped before tears began to spill "M-Mom!" He cried out rushing over to her limp, bleeding body. He was now on his knees shaking his lifeless mother "Mom!" He cried out loudly, the tears none stop and then he heard a cry of pain and loud bang from upstairs.
"D-Dad!" He called as he stood, his whole body shaking. As he walked he had to lean on the wall to get up the stairs he was shaking so badly. God everything in him was telling him to run and never come back. But he couldn't...even though he was only six he thought maybe, just maybe he can help. He began to cry harder as he was now upstair and looking upon his father as the man crawled away from his bed room. "S-Sasuke!" He hoarsely called his sons name out "R-run!"He said reaching for his youngest son before he began to choke on his own blood.
Sasuke couldn't even see now, every thing was blurry due to how hard he was crying now. To see his mother dead body, her dead eyes looking upon him as he shook her and now his father, bleeding from his throat, a nasty gash across it and then he looked up.
And before him stood a figured in the shadows in his parents room was looking at him, a lit match in his hand, casting shadows on his face so Sasuke couldn't make out who the man was--also due to all the tears. Sasuke began to hyperventilate and then he looked at his father who had now stopped moving, only after choking on his own blood. "You should listen to him . Run." The shadowed figure said, his voice low, rasp, and extremely ierry.
Sasuke did just that, turning on his heels he ran down the stairs, stumbling as he ran through the door calling for help but he was crying far to much now to even breath while he ran in a dead run "Help!" He cried out but it seemed his whole block was gone, as he turned the corner of his street he herd the sirens of cop cars...And then all at once everything ran through his mind–where was his brother? Who could that man be? Why was this happening to him? And then he blacked out, falling hard to the ground--in the middle of the street and that's how the cops found him.
Sasuke inhaled deeply as he opened his eyes only to realize he had stopped walking and closed his eyes while he remembered what happened back then .The he looked at his phone realizing it was 7:15 pm. The gates to the campus closed in 40 minutes and he was and hour away from the campus. With a nasty curse he shoved his phone in his pocket and took off in a dead run, hoping he'll make it there in time.
Once he reached the campus he inhaled deeply, trying to catch his breath. While still huffing he noticed he had 5 minutes to spare. Dang, did he run that fast? His dark eyes glanced around as he walked toward his dormitory–noting that no one was out. Most likely in their new rooms getting to know their roommates and what not.
"Hn." He scoffed out, not wishing to meet his roommate. He grabbed the rail once he was inside and began headed upstairs. God did he really want to return to his room. 'No!' His inner self screamed but he kept going up anyways. Once he was through the door the hall was quite, only able to hear soft mumbling from peoples rooms as they talked to their new roommates.
He inhaled deeply once more as he went to his room and grabbed the nob slowly turning it he pushed it opened gave a curse once his dark eyes meet another pair of dark eyes, the boys lips twisted up into a grin.
"Hey, Sasuke."
"You've got to be shitting me..." Sasuke muttered out in a hiss as he stood at the door way, shocked and pissed all at once and all he could do was shake his head. How can what ever god their was be so damn cruel.
