"Sasuke…" I reach my hand towards my younger brother and place it on his shoulder.

"What is it that you want Nii-san?" He speaks to me somberly as if in a trance.

"I was wondering why you are out this late…you should be in bed. Is something bothering you?" I smile sweetly at my younger sibling and sit down next to him looking out over our courtyard as the fireflies dance across the clear night sky.

"It's alright Nii-san…it's nothing. You don't have to worry about me." He looks over and smiles that beautiful smile that we only shared, forgotten between us both.

The images of my younger days with my brother at the Uchiha estate slowly fade into a deep sleepy haze as I sit up in my bed and rub my eyes. I sit there for a dazed few moments before I decide to get up and make my way out to the overhanging ledge of the base and see the fire flies dancing happily once again remembering the days that Sasuke and I sat outside and watched them dance for hours and then I would tuck him in and lay beside him until he fell asleep. Those are now just happy memories of what once was. No more not after the mission I was given and I had to leave my little brother hating me, I wish I could have told you…I wanted nothing more than to explain to you what had happened. I feel the gentle breeze brush my skin like his little hands once did. I'm sorry Sasuke…I wish I could have told you…we will meet again. Then I will tell you of what had happened, my beloved little brother, Sasuke…until then, I'll keep you in my mind as we once were…happy.
