Itachi's eyes were set on the road as a cigarette hung from between his lips, his mind clearly lost in thought. He looked over at the blond boy next to him, asleep in his chair. Itachi sighed, only a while ago had he found Naruto, alone and by himself. Shaking, crying, but he still had looked up at Itachi, and smiled, even if it wasn't sincere. And this, had bothered Itachi deeply. "Teme!" Naruto cried out from the passengers side, startling the older Uchiha. "Teme, dont leave me." By now, tears fell from the boys cheeks as he continued to cry out for the young raven haired boy. Itachi parked the car in front of the Uchiha house, then gently shoke Naruto, trying to wake him. But, Itachi's touch only made Naruto cry harder. "Teme" Naruto continued to cry out as Itachi leaned down, and began to whisper into his ear. "Wake up Dobe." Itachi soothed. Naruto's tears stopped as a smile had replaced them. "Teme, I thought-" "Open your eyes Dobe" Itachi cut in, "I'll be here when you get back." Naruto slowly opened his eyes to Itachi opening the car door. "Have a nice dream?" Itachi asked, stepping out of the car over to the passengers side. Naruto smiled up at Itachi, one of those big old goofy grins, as he nodded his head.

Naruto lingered by the porch steps as Itachi unlocked the door, gently pushing it open. "Come on." Itachi motioned with his hands for Naruto to go first. Hesitantly, the young blond stepped forward, then stumbled back again. "I-I cant go back there." He stuttered. His legs seemed to give out as he fell to the floor, looking down at the ground beneath him. "Naruto-" "I cant!" Naruto yelled, cutting the Uchiha off. Itachi slowly keeled down next to Naruto, and ruffled his blond, already messy hair. "Cheer up." He tried. Naruto looked up at him through eyes filled with sorrow and dispare. 'Like a lost puppy.' Itachi thought to himself, as he continued to stare into the baby blue eyes. "Let me take it away."He had found himself saying. Before the blonde had a chance to respond Itachi had lifted up the blonds chin to his, and brushed his lips across Narutos, hardening the kiss. Naruto grew tense as Itachi allowed his hands to slip around him, pulling them closer together. But soon Naruto seemed to melt in his arms, and, he found himself pulling Itachi closer too. "Sasuke." Naruto had said aloud, without thinking about who he was saying it too. Itachis eyes opened as his arms dropped from the young boys body, and he broke the kiss, averting his eyes to the door. "My names not Sasuke. Its Itachi. I am Itachi." He said, pulling himself up off the floor. "Itachi I-" "Just leave it." Itachi cut him off, stepping through the opened door. "When you feel ready, you can come in." He had said through gritted teeth, lightly slamming the door behind him. Naruto sat where Itachi had left him, and looked over at the door, cursing at himself through the wind. Behind the door, Itachi stood against it, a cigarette held between his lips. A hand propped up against his head as he stood thinking over what had happened. "Could you two have been more...Sasuke..." Itachi growled, smashing the cigarette into the old wooden floor as his body slightly shook with anger.
