Storms

I was standing outside his door, nervous to go inside. But then there was another round of lighting and thunder coming from the outside. I soon found myself inside his room by the door, and I was trembling from fear. I couldn't help it really. Ever since I was a little girl I was always afraid of storms.

I looked towards the bed where he was, and gulped. I knew he would probably be mad that I came in here and woke him up. But he knew that I was scared so maybe, just maybe, he won't be too mad.

"Are you going to stand there all night or get in?" I jumped and saw the red eyes of Itachi Uchiha. He was sitting up on one elbow and had the blankets pulled back. I blushed when I saw that he was shirtless. I mean, I've known him before he murdered the Uchiha clan, and I always had a crush on him. But he was 5 years older than me, so why would he like me, a mere 18 year old girl.

I made my way over to the bed slowly, but then it thundered again, and I was in the bed with the blankets over my head. I heard the sound of Itachi chuckling, and felt him pull the blankets from over my head.

"You can take on Kisame and get in between Sasori and Diedara when they are fighting, but you are scared of storms?" He said shaking his head.

I glared at him. When I saw that it didn't work (like it could on him), I sighed and said, "I know. But I don't know what it is about storms at night. During the daytime when it storms, I'm not scared, it's at night that I get scared," I pulled the blankets over my head again. "Ugh… I feel so stupid and weak. Like you said I can take on anything, but why am I afraid of storms!"

Itachi pulled the blankets off again, and looked me in the eyes. I stared into his eyes that have gone back to their beautiful midnight black, and felt butterflies in my stomach. "Akira, you're a smart, strong, beautiful woman. And this is your weakness; everyone has a weakness that they have to overcome." He stroked my cheek softly. I closed my eyes. I loved the feeling of his skin against mine.

"How did you overcome yours?" I asked him. I opened my eyes and saw him smirk.

"I haven't overcome it. And I don't want to, either." I tilted my head in confusion. He smirked again and said, "You are my weakness, Akira. I've loved you since we were younger. And I was glad when came here."

"R-r-really?" I managed. I was stunned. He felt the same way as I felt about him.

He smiled a real genuine smile. "Really," with that he leaned down and kissed me. I kissed him back and wrapped my arms around his neck. He licked my bottom lip, wanting entrance, which I gladly allowed. Our tongues intertwined and he explored my mouth.

He soon broke the kiss, and looked down at me. "I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I smiled when he kissed me again, and wrapped his arms around me. I turned to him and buried my head in his chest, taking in his scent. When the thunder sounded, I moved closer to him.

He chuckled again, and said, "I'm glad that you're afraid of storms."

"Why's that?"

"Because, I know that you'll come in here. Now sleep, I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you. I promise." I nodded and soon I was asleep. I wasn't afraid anymore. Not as long as Itachi was there to hold me.
