As the darkness enveloped me I felt as if I was floating upon a sea of black. A slit to the wrist. One drop of blood, one level higher. Two drops, then three. Third time's the charm. I was finally feeling somewhat blissful as my sorrow poured from me and drizzled down my arm. Three drops, that's all it took. Itachi. The raven in my dreams…he was calling for me. I could barely hear his seductive voice, screaming my name as three drips became four…and eventually fifteen. His voice kept getting fainter, and even though I embraced the darkness his voice was comforting, I didn't want it to go away…but eventually it did.
"Itachi" I felt myself whisper it, but I didn't hear it. I couldn't hear anything. My breathing escaladed as I began to leave my euphoric state and return to consciousness. I felt something around my body…something or someone warm. My hearing returned to me. The thing wrapped around me was crying harshly and his voice was suddenly there again. I then remembered why I had done it this time. Cutting had been a regular part of my life since I was eight, but this time I cut a major artery. Why? Itachi. It really wasn't his fault, but he was the reason. Itachi was the only thing in my life keeping me from acting on my suicidal thoughts and lifestyle. But when we broke up, there wasn't anything holding me back anymore. I wrote him a note that said:
イタチ
オネガイ シマス ユルス コレ リコーテキ オコナイ ノゾイテ ワタシ デキル ナイ イキテイル ソト デ/ニ アナタ。 ワタシ コイ アナタ。
サスケ
(Itachi, please forgive this selfish act but I can not live without you. I love you. Sasuke.) That was the note I left on the table of our one-bedroom apartment.
"Sasuke, baby wake up…please. Sasuke…I love you too. You can't die." Then I felt something soft and warm upon my lips…it tasted like rice. My eyes fluttered open and I gently looked at the older Uchiha kissing me. When he noticed I was awake, he wiped his tears and hugged me.
"I thought I'd lost you." He whispered. He was pressing a cloth very hard against my wrist to stop the bleeding.
"Damn it…for a few peaceful moments I thought I was finally dead." Itachi glared angrily at me.
"Don't you dare even speak of such things! Sasuke you can't do this to me, don't leave me all alone."
"Leave you alone…?" I asked becoming amused.
"Sasuke…I need you." I almost smiled.
"I love you too."
"I'm taking you back, it was a mistake to ever leave. I love you." I sighed at my brother.
"Hai…Nii-Chan." I was happier, and felt my depression slowly lifting.
CHAPTER TWO: SASUKE LEARNS HAPPINESS
"Sasuke, there is absolutely no reason for you to be suicidal. There are two things that should make you happy." I smirked.
"Explain."
"Here's my opinion; Why be sad when you have me to love and why be suicidal when you can simply be homicidal." I tilted my head in confusion. ＴＤ
