Itachi Uchiha is a nerd. Yes. An emotionless nerd. He was intelligent a prodigy and that's why he was already in high school. Itachi wasn't bullied often, but when he was he got the point across that no-one would be touching him, ever. Period. No touching at all.

Not that he needed the reassurence in the first place. Yes he was small and abit un-manly for his age, and very effiminate, but that didn't mean he couldn't fend for himself.

And then school started. The first day of high-school for the young Uchiha.

When Itachi had gotten ready that morning he tried to look as manly as possible. He wore a black long sleeve with the slit down the middle. it wasn't a large slit a few inches maybe with a red string criss-crossing over his bare skin keeping the fabric from showing off more of the boys skin. He wore pants that complemented his long legs and girly hips. A red studded belt. And regular dark gray converse. He put on his prized possesion, a necklace with three rings on it, his Mother said his Father had given it to him before they had seperated. At least that's what the note said.

His Mother suffered from amnesia. She had gotten into a car accident when little Itachi was only 5. He and his Mother know nothing of any other family and really don't want to.

He tied his hair back with a red tie and regretfully put on his black with red trim glasses. He was half-blind. The Uchihas had a genetic stigmitism. It turned their irises red since the stigmitism they possessed was rare it left the pigment that turned their eyes dark to turn red instead. It was odd and made them all the more menacing but left them blind as well. He blinked a few times and sighed he looked awful, but he would walk with the Uchiha pride on his shoulders.

He strode out of the bathroom ready for the day and his mother smiled.

"As always wearing the same two colors, Itachi," she said smiling at her youngest son. He nodded and walked out the door in a haste. He was no idiot he knew if he wanted to get through the first day of high-school he would have to get there early.

As he walked down the back route he sighed fishing out his iPod black in color with red buttons. And black and red earphones. He flipped through and picked the perfect song to calm his nerves.

My immortal by Evanascence

It always calmed him when he felt abit jittery. He continued his walk down the street leating the paino notes wash away all of his nerves of fear from today. He looked across the street and saw a girl holding a younger girl that looked similar to herself's hand. And Itachi began to remember why this would be a hard year.

He had no siblings he was a 13 year old with no father, brother, or even sister. All he had was his mom. His mom saiid she had been married when he was very small, and she didn't want to be with the man she married anymore. At the age of 6 Itachi knew what it meant. He would only have his mom, no-one else,

He sighed and turned away from the two girls and continued his trekk to Konoha High-School, his new Hell hole.

He kept on walking trying to ignore the looks he got and succeeded as he let himself become oblivious the music flooding his mind making him feel that much better. and soon the whole playlist began. Super Pyscho Love, Simon Curtis, then No.5, HollyWood UnDead then Whatya Want From Me, Adam Lambert. His favorites and he stopped and put his iPod away when he saw the school building in veiw just a few blocks away.

He checked the time and saw that he was still early. He adjusted his glasses, licked his pink plump lips and clutched his bookbag just a bit tighter. He put away his electronics and began the tortureous walk to the building of doom.

He got there without a hitch, nothing had obscured his path and he sighed. This was going to be difficult. Tons of kids where piled outside, chatting about pointless gossip and giggling girls. It was a nuisance and he was beyond annoyed with the area. Keeping his bookbag close he walked through the doors ignoring wolfwhistles from the normal and cliche bunch of jocks.

One look it abit too far though and the young raven acted on instinct.

One with blonde hair, blue eyes and whisker like markings had grabbed his backside and the young raven whipped around his red eyes narrowed in a blood-freezing glare as he delievered a quick jab to the blondes stomach and kicked his legs from underneath him.

He turned away and ignored the continuations of awful highschool rumors and walked through the front doors.

Maybe he wasn't as early as he thought once again the hallways where crowded with older teens. Remember Itachi's only 13 these kids are like 16-17 and could easily trample him. Hhe wasn't completely small but compared to all these un-naturaly tall teens he looked like a 6 year old.

He litterally ran through the stampede of teens and into his first period classroom. This was goona be rather diffucult. There was already around 12 other teens in the room his first period class, History.

He took a seat at the far left away from most of the people and began to absorb the conversations of others. Because of his slowly blinding eyes all his other senses where more sharp than others. He was really observant teen with his deteriorating eyesight he could find anything he wanted.

After his first period he had his second, Art/Drama. It was kinda rolled into both, since the teacher for drama had quit the art teacher took over but he's still teaching art at the same time.

That one was kinda strange. The teacher kept giving him really creepy 'I-shall-rape-you-behind-the-school,' the other students where really obnoxious and wouldn't shut up about what the raven had done this morning, and he was seriously getting pissed.

After a tedious hour of getting yelled at by the Language Arts was lunch, and he was getting bombarded by lots of people to sit with them. But the little raven had other plans. He walked out a tomato in hand and gracefully jumped up into one of the more leafy Sakura trees. He could tell people where looking for him but he had hidden nicely. Even if they tried not a single person would be able to find him.

The thing he liked about tomantoes wass that he loved sweets, yes. But tomatoes are filling and are rather healthy, he liked them but he didn't like them as much as he liked dango.

Oh he had wanted to bring dango instead of the red fruit but as always his mother didn't think the confection was much of a lunch, so he was stuck with the little red fruit.

He bite his tomato daintily and sighed leaning back down relaxing that was until he heard two voices right underneath him.

He looked down swallowing the flesh of the tomato and saw there where two boys sitting on the grond in the shade of the tree he was currently hiding in.

"I heard you broke up with Sakura, bullshit,"

"No. I did,"

Itachi looked closer and saw that it was the blonde from earlier and some other teen maybe 17 at the most and he had dark eyes with the slightest red tint to them. He was muscular but not to the point where Itachi wanted to look away and give the teen a muscle-down pill. No, he had just the right amount to compliment his lean figure. His hair was black-ish blue and his bangs fell into his forehead and the rest framed his face. It was sticking up majorly in the back but it looked natural not hard and gel flaked.

Itachi tore his eyes away from the black haired teen and turned to the blonde idiot now dubbed Naruto.

"You what!? Sasuke, why in the hell would you break up with the hottest girl in school!?"

"Hottest? More like the sluttiest. Naruto, she cheated on me. I think I was allowed to break up with her," the raven said shaking his head at the blonde who stuck out his tounge and picked off one of the leaves from the tree.

Itachi had long sinced stopped caring what they were talking about and swallowed down the last bit of tomato that had been in his mouth. He sighed quietly knowing the two were still down there and turned to look down. What an idiotic thing to do.

Before he had a chance to grab them his glasses fell of and bounced on the ravens head then onto the ground.

"Fuck,"

(SASUKE'S POV)

Something hit me.

Right on my head.

"Fuck,"

I looked up to see dark red eyes staring back at me. They widened abit then disappeared back into the leaves.

Those eyes where really pretty though, a bloody red that looked so calm and serene swirling about with darker tones of itself. Complimented by girlishly long eyelashes framing the beautiful red orbs.

I was mesmerized by the eyes that I subconciously picked up the fallen object, red and black glasses, raised up a hand to the tree, and said,

"Come down here."

Another audible curse and a thin body jumped down and clumsily made their way over to me, where I handed them the glasses and they hastily put them on.

It was a boy, no older than 13 if even that and had long raven hair with bangs that perfectly framed his face and the rest was tied away into a ponytail.

He was wearing a long sleeve that showed skin that I was sure was as soft as an angels. He narrowed his blood red eyes and stared at me.

"Excuse me,"

And he spoke.

"Could I have my glasses back?"

I handed the item in question to the raven and he gave a polite nod and asked another question,

"What's your name? I would like to know for future referance."

I was going to answer when something rammed into my midsection.

"Sa-Sasuke, Please! Take me back! *sniffle* I'll do anything!"

Oh Kami no. Not now.

The little boy narrowed his eyes at me and the pink haired girl currently attached to my midsection like a leech.

"Sakura. Off." I commanded but she didn't listen just kept fogging up my nose with her perfume, I've never liked the smell of vanilla, so when she rubbed the scent all over me I just did not like it.

"B-But! Sasuke! I-I love you!"

"Lie."

"I-I do!"

"Lie."

"I-I'm pregnant! You have to be with me!"

"Bullshit, Sakura we never even did anything. Now get. Off." I hissed at the watery eyed girl who burst into tears and forced a kiss upon me.

I tasted vanilla and once again I did NOT like it.

I struggled to get her off of me but that girl did bench weights or something, because she just wouldn't get off.

She wiggled her gross tongue into my mouth and I thought of how I never liked when she would kiss me. I wanted her OFF me and her tongue OUT of my mouth.

To be honest it was really gross, vanilla flooded my mouth as she wiggled her tongue about in my mouth. She pulled away after a minute and smirked, thinking that one little kiss would have me crawling back. Wrong.

I wiped my mouth on the back of my hand and glowered at the pink haired girl.

"Don't ever do that again," I hissed and Naruto sighed. He knew I had never really liked Sakura. That I had only done it because I wanted to get rid of her constant clingy-ness, but it made it even worse and after 3 months I had enough.

She was like a freaking sexual predator or something, I'm not saying she's a bad person just abit too obsessed with me.

She attempted to rape me!

And then she cheated on me!

Our relationship should've just stayed at bad clingyness and offtrust, but no.

I had to finally give in and now when I find a really adorable little raven Saskura goes and ruins it.

Great.

She broke down in tears and everyone gave me looks of disgust that I had made a girl cry. Naruto tried to shush her but she wouldn't stop and I resisted the urge to snort at her petty attempts to get me back.

Okay maybe that was abit harsh but hse deserved it, I'm not getting back with her because she cried. That would be dumb. I turned around to answer the small ravens question, but he was gone.

And for a reason I didn't understand I felt... dissapointed.

I heard the bell for lunch ring and I looked back at the crying pinkette and a fustrated Naruto, smirked and mouthed, 'Meet you in Science,' to the blonde and walked into the school.

Of course girls swooned over me, even though I obviously wasn't into them they thought with the right amount of sluttiness I would like them. Then again I'm bi so sometimes they really don't appeal to me.

Some of them are okay though, when they actually WANT to know about ME and not about my perfect looks.

It felt nice knowing someone actually wanted to know me, then again with the fangirl pandamonium sometimes I really couldn't trust anyone.

I pondered over this as I walked the nearly emoty hallways once again and didn't pay attention to my surroundings as I walked about the calm corridor. My footsteps light and hardly audible.

Then once again my thoughts traveled to him.

The cute little raven from earlier, I never got his name so for now he was labeled cute little raven.

His eyes so beautiful if I could I would stare an eternity into those bloody eyes, as my thoughts drifted towards the gutters, blame teenage hormones, a failed to notice a certian cute litle raven from earlier walking right in front of me. Until he stopped turned to face me, and me being the dumbass I was, collided with him.

My head was spinning but not as much as when I looked into his eyes.

"Oh. It's you again,"

Ouch.

(REGULAR POV)

Itachi was not stupid.

He knew that girl was most likely the teens girlfriend, and for a reason unknown to the small raven he felt oddly... jealous.

The girl had reeked of vanilla and gingerbread.

Something Itachi just didn't like to smell.

He loved sweets of course, but she just wore too much and it made his stomach churn.

He knew someone was walking behind them but hhe didn't know who. He had grown tired of the following and just turned around only for a firm chest to collide with him.

"Oh. It's you again,"

He looked up and saw that it was the same teen from earlier. But when he looked into those dark eyes he felt something flutter in his chest. Something he hadn't felt for awhile.

You see Itachi had come out as a gay and only told his best friend, the one he was in love with. But instead of understanding and possibley liking the raven back he 'accidently' told the entire middle school.

He didn't suffer long though, a week or two later he got accepted into this program.

Now he was virtually alone with a broken heart and gay reputation in middleschool.

He felt that familiar feeling of nuisea and his heart seemed to be fluttering like a hummingbird in his ribcage. And that familiar twinge of uncertainty created a swirl inside his chest and he could barely breath. He cursed his easily falling heart, as he continued to look into those dark eyes, those beautiful dark eyes...

All too soon the elder raven pushed himself off of the weasel mumbling something akin to 'sorry,' and he offered a hand to help up the fallen male.

"What's your name?"

A question that Itachi had been anticipating had been asked.

"Itachi Uchiha," the small ravens last name had come from his Mother, she had been told she had a husband once and that when they had divorced she dedcide to keep the last name.

"Sasuke Kusenagi," Itachi began to hink how familiar that name sounded. It didn't sound very common but he could swear he's heard of that name before.

Sasuke felt enlightened and oddly elated that he had finally learned the little ravens name.

"You seem abit young for Konoha HighSchool, how old are you?"

The younger half wanted to just lie and say he was 15 but he knew he couldn't get away with it and decided it would cause less trouble than if he lied.

"13,"

"Oi! Sasuke!"

He just couldn't get some damn peace and quiet with the little raven now could he?!

Itachi's eye twitched as he looked at the direction from where the voice had come and saw a couple of girls about 16-17. Bold-ish hair tied into four ponytails with another girl who had dark brown hair that was tied into two symmetrical buns ontop of her head.

'Of all times, TenTen and Temari pick now?' Sasuke fumed in his head glaring with cold eyes as he stood behind the younger rven to ensure that he wouldn't run off like last time.

Sasuke didn't exactly enjoy their company. The two were a lesbian couple, that liked to call themselves true feminists.

Which in itself annoyed the crap out off Sasuke.

Itachi could tell these two would end up being a problem.

"Heard you broke up with Sakura, you pig. Look at you, after fresh meat like this poor girl!" the honey haired girl said and the other nodded glaring at the elder raven and offering Itachi a pitying smile.

And the 13 year-old found his eye twitching and his mouth moving before he could register that either had done such a thing.

"First of all Miss, I'm NOT a fucking girl! Second of all, that slut cheated on him! And lastly even if I where a girl I would be smart enough to pick which people are good and bad!"

The youngster was out of breath by the time he finished shouting at the two. He just despised being called a girl, it made him think he was effeminate in ways he shouldn't be. Even if he was gay, he most certainly didn't want to be over the top about it.

THe two teenage girls stared at the boy for abit, grit their teeth and eventually huffed away.

Cowards.

(SASUKE'S POV)

He just told them off.

Newfound respect.

In all my years of dealing with the two no-one other than me has told them off, but this little kid does it without a second thought.

He huffed and turned back towards me and smiled abit.

"Did I just do something I'll regret?"

And so he realized.

"Most likely, what do you have next little prodigy I wanna make sure you don't get run over on the way,"

I hadn't the faintest idea why I was being so nice to the little kid. I was supposed to be the bad boy, the player, the one who pushed little kids to the side not help them to class. But this kid sparked something in me. He was just so... beautiful.

"Science, with ,"

Ah. So we have the same class, how interesting. Wait... the same class? More time with eachother? But it is Pain's class he's as strict as a mother with 4 children.

"Me too,"

"See you then,"

(REGULAR POV)

Sasuke walked the kid to class then dropped him off so he could go sit in the far right per usual. But he sat at an angle where even if people sat in between them he would get a perfect veiw of Itachi.

About a minute or so later Pain-sensei walked in. But he was smiling.

'Must've been with his girlfrien again,' the elder raven thought when he said the class had free time. He was gonna go talk to Itachi that was until a certain someone named Naruto got int he way.

While Sasuke was trying to get away from the blondes grasp, Itachi was talking with someone, someone he knew would get him in trouble.

"Hi! My names Deidara, mm! And I think it's time I tell you some things about the Sasuke,hm"

Well maybe some risk was good, especially if he could learn more about a certain someone, named Sasuke.

A/N: Okay so this was supposed to be a one-shot but it became to long so I decided to split it in half and post the rest when I finsh revising it and stuff. I know I hae all my other ItaSasu/SasuIta fics but this idea was haunting me and I'm not going to update 'Oddly Strange' until around Halloween so yeah, and I'm leaving 'Secretary' in major suspense as well so... yeah.
