Itachi Uchiha had to leave his beloved little brother Sasuke that fateful night . Sasuke felt confused , betrayed , forgotten , but most of all : alone .

Sasuke grew up with a cold front . He acted ad though he didn't have emotions , much less , a heart . One day , he met a girl from Kirigakure . Her name was Seiko Hatasumo .

Sasuke was fifteen , two years younger than Seiko . Seiko had been abandoned by her clan when she was six years old . They hated her for being different . Her clan was full of medical ninjas . Seiko was blood thirsty , even as a young child .

Seiko was kind , though . She and Sasuke were both abandoned ; he chose to be heartless , Seiko chose to spread love .

Sasuke was escaping from Konoha , to find Orochimaru . Seiko was wandering . They ran dead into eachother . Sasuke stood up and glared at the girl . Reconizing the sharigan , Seiko smiled , knowing exactly who she was dealing with .

"Your Sasuke Uchiha ." She said softly . Sasuke stared at her .

"Who're you ?" He finally said .

"Seiko Hatasumo ." She bowed . He rolled his eyes and moaned . Seiko snapped her head up and looked at him cautiously . He was taller than her and quite handsome . The aura around him was menacing and cold , though . "Why are you so cold ? So heartless ?" She whispered , reaching out to touch his face . Shocked , Sasuke grasped her wrist firmly and smirked . "Welcome to my world , where everyone I ever need always ends up leaving me ."

Seiko pulled away from his grasp gently and looked into the raven-haired boy's eyes . The red orbs peered down at her .

"You made yourself this way ." Seiko's voice was airy . Sasuke snorted .

"And the choice I wish I made .. I always make too late .." The Uchiha boy wanted to feel Seiko's warmth once again . Just touching her arm made him want to hold her .

Sasuke wasn't used to the feeling he gave her . He hated many things , women included . But this small , fragile girl was breaking his icy barrier .

Fear ran through the silver haired girl's body . "So here I am again , in the middle of the end .." She murmured .

"No ." Uchiha shook his head . He was scared - no , he was terrified -. "Your not alone anymore ." His voice was little more than a whisper .

Unsure of how to react , Seiko gave a small smile . "Welcome to our world ." She breathed while interlocking fingers with the lonely boy .

Sasuke's fingers were trembling , his whole body quaking in suprise . Is this love ? He wondered . It has to be ..
