My Brother
By: Silverwolf
They sit together glancing about a room. Naruto notices a pair of boots he's never seen before. Puzzle books sits on the bed. Sasuke had brought them into the room. Naruto had followed behind him. A candy wrapper in the trash attracted Naruto's attention. "I thought you hated sweets." "I do. This isn't my room." "Then whose room is this?" Naruto eyes the textbooks, organized desk, and white walls. "My brother's." The reply catches Naruto off guard. He didn't even know Sasuke had a brother. "Like a younger brother?" Sasuke shakes his head. "Elder." "How come you never told me?" "I never thought about it. He's not here anyway." "So where is he?" "At my uncle's. I was supposed to empty the trash a month ago. But he's not here so I never bothered." Naruto shakes his head, "I don't know about that. You said it before, I don't have a brother. Or sister for that matter." Sasuke shrugs. "So what's his name?" Sasuke looks at the organized bookshelves. "Itachi." Naruto doesn't seem to be asking anymore questions about the room as Sasuke rises to leave. "Why did you leave those books?" "My mother asks me to." "I don't get it." Sasuke shrugs, "I don't bother."
