I don't own Naruto or the songs mentioned in this story or chapter.

Lyrics are in bold. When Sasuke or Itachi sing the song, they are like this "'insert lyrics they're saying'" and aren't in bold, it goes to the next part of the song.

Sasuke: (growling) Are you serious?

Me: About what?

Sasuke: About the outline for this chapter. (flaps paper in my face)

Me: Yup.

Itachi: I don't think it's that bad…

Sasuke: That's because you're a gay bastard.

Itachi: So are you.

(arguing)

Me: Okay, okay, go kill each other someplace else! Review please, readers! Hope you enjoy it!

Secrets

Chapter two: Why does this feel so…

I growled quietly to myself and walked over to my Hi-Fi Stereo Set across the room from my door. I pushed the button that read 'Next' on it and listen for a moment before smiling to myself. I turned around back to my work in my closet, making little dance moves as I listened to the music.

I knew this song by heart, it's one of my favorites, and…I glanced at the door to see Itachi walking past slowly with a smile on his face. I knew he was listening too. He knows how much I love this song. I smiled and looked back at what I was doing.

Call me crazy, but it kinda reminds me of…me and Itachi, for some reason.

"Sasuke," I looked up and was surprised to see my brother standing in my doorway.

"Yeah, Itachi?" I asked him. He slowly walked forward, towards me.

"I was thinking…" he began. "Remember when we were little and we would…dance together?"

I nodded. "Yeah. What about it?" How could I forget about that?

"Well…do you wanna…dance, now? For, you know, old times sake…?" he stuttered slightly as he said it.

I smiled and nodded again. Itachi walked forward more so we were standing closer together. I raised my left hand and put it on his shoulder, then took his left hand in my right. Itachi smiled down at me. He took his free hand and put it around my waist, into the small of my back gently, pushing me towards him.

I hate feelin' like this,
I'm so tired of tryin' to fight this.
I'm asleep and all I dream of is waking to You

I blushed slightly as I remembered what song was playing in the background of our dancing. Itachi smirked. "What's wrong, otouto?" he asked.

"N-nothing,"

"Do you want to change the song? This one is pretty fast-paced," he stated, starting to dance a dance I knew well, pulling me along with him.

"Nah, It's fine."

Tell me that You will listen.
Your touch is what I'm missin'
And the more I hide I realize I'm slowly losin' You .

Comatose,
I'll never wake up without an overdose of You.

I laughed as I almost tripped on Itachi's foot, and he just smiled. We ignored it and acted like it hadn't happened.


I don't wanna live.
I don't wanna breathe.
'less I feel You next to me,
You take the pain I feel.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real

"'I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream, 'cause my dreams don't comfort me. The way you make me feel. Wakin' up to you never felt so real.'" I sang along with the words, causing Itachi to give me a funny look.

I listened to the music, and noticed that when the words started again, there was another, silky, beautiful voice singing with it. I widened my eyes.

"'I hate livin' without you. Dead wrong to ever doubt you. But my demons lay in waitin' tempting me away." There was a pause in the music before the next words started. "'Oh, how I adore you. Oh, how I thirst for you. Oh, how I need you.'" I looked at Itachi. I didn't know he could sing. Well, not that…beautifully, anyway. Everyone can sing somewhat. He smirked at me before continuting. "'Comatose, I'll never wake up without an overdose of you.'"

I don't wanna live.
I don't wanna breathe.
'less I feel You next to me,
You take the pain I feel.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real

"You like this song, Itachi?" I asked.

Itachi shrugged. "I've gotten used to it, since you play it so much."


 I don't wanna sleep.
I don't wanna dream,
'cause my dreams don't comfort me.
The way You make me feel.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real

I felt Itachi's hand on my back press a little harder, forcing me towards him. I stumbled forward and my head hit his chest lightly. I blushed, but regained myself before Itachi could see.

Breathing life.
Waking up.
My eyes,
Open up.

"'Comatose, I'll never wake up without an overdose of you.'" This time, it was me singing, out of habit, and Itachi who stumbled slightly because he wasn't paying attention. I laughed playfully.

"'I don't wanna live. I don't wanna breathe. 'les I feel you next to me, you take the pain I feel. Wakin' up to you never felt so real.'" This time when I sang, I heard Itachi singing with me. I looked up at him and raised and eyebrow at him. He shrugged slightly.

"Are you challenging me to a singing contest?" I teased.

"Maybe," he replied.

I don't wanna sleep.
I don't wanna dream,
'cause my dreams don't comfort me.
The way You make me feel.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real

"Fine then," I answered. "After this song's over, let's have a contest."

"No thanks," Itachi muttered.

"What? Why?" I pouted.

Itachi smiled. He leaned forward and nosed my hair slightly. His hand that was on my waist slid down a little and his fingers barely brushed against my backside, groping me. When I tried to talk, to ask him what he was doing, all that came out was a soft, contented sigh.

Oh, how I adore You.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real.
Oh, how I thirst for You.
Wakin' up to You never felt so real.

Oh, how I adore you.

I knew it was close to the end of the song, so I started to pull away from Itachi's hold on me, but he pulled me back towards him. Before I knew what was happeneing, I was laying back over Itachi's knee, he was holding me up, and I saw his beautiful eyes, that same drowning feeling consuming me. He leaned forwards so our faces were only inches apart. I felt his light breath on my face and blushed. "'Oh, the way you make me feel. Wakin' up to you never felt so real.'" Itachi finished singing the song with it. My face grew hotter than it already was when I felt his hand slide down my spine. I bit my lip. What was he doing? Why did this feel so…okay? So right?

Itachi stood me up, releasing his hands from my body. I walked away a few steps and fanned my face with my hands, which had become really red.

Calm down, Sasuke, calm down, I thought. He didn't do anything weird or…or uncomfortable to you, well, not really. He just ran his hand on your back. Nothing wrong with that, right? As much as I tried, I couldn't calm myself or get rid of the weird feeling in my gut. But, even so…

I looked over my shoulder slightly and saw Itachi looking at my stereo with curiousity. He seemed to notice I was watching him and looked at me. I turned away again.

I dunno, something about it gave me the feeling that he wanted…that I wanted…I shook my head. No! I don't think of Itachi like that- h-he's my brother

Your really hot brother, my 'Inner-Sasuke' said to me.

I blushed even more. You. Are. Not. Helping!

I know. I could tell Inner-Sasuke was pleased with himself.

Bitch.

Right back at ya.

…I hate you.

I hate you too. Now he was smiling.

Just shut up, okay?!

Why should I? We're talking about you're brother-my brother-I think I have every right to stay.

"…" I ignored it and focused on what was happening outside of my head. Itachi had just said something. I turned around and asked, "Sorry, what was that?" You made me miss what he said!

But it gave you an opportunity to look at him, didn't it? Inner-Sasuke was smirking.

Yeah, but if he's looking at me, then- er, I mean, I'll deal with you later!

Inner-Sasuke smirked and snickered before leaving me alone.

"I said, You listen to this song?" Itachi repeated slowly.

I focused on the music that was playing and the lyrics. "Um, yeah I do."

"You like it?"

"Yeah, otherwise we wouldn't be hearing it now. Duh,"

Itachi ignored my comment and instead asked, "Do you know what time it is?"

"I'll check."

Itachi looked away at my wall with pictures and drawings. When I walked past him, my hand brushed his leg. I blushed and looked at him to see his reaction. I noticed his cheeks were lightly brushed with pink. I smirked. That will be fun for me to tease him about later.

I looked at my clock. It read, 11:30. Wow. It was still pretty early. "It's 11: 30," I relayed to Itachi. I turned around to come into contact with something that was quickly wrapped around my eyes. "I-Itachi! What are you-" I was cut off when a finger was put to my lips. I felt what I guessed to be Itachi's hand on my face. It stroked my cheek gently, and I almost leaned into it, until I felt something on my face; hot breath.

Itachi.

He really liked to enjoy invading my personal bubble today, didn't he?

I had just about started to rant in my head about how stupid Itachi could be when I felt the finger leave my lips to be replaced by something else, just brushing against them. Itachi slowly lifted the blindfold from my eyes. I blinked a few times before I realized that it was Itachi's lips that were on mine.

Just as I was about to lean to him and close that tiny gap between us, he stood and walked around me. I turned and followed his movements with my eyes.

Itachi stopped just in my doorway. He glanced slightly over his shoulder. I met his gaze. I opened my mouth to say something, but was cut off when Itachi said something so softly I thought I had imagined it.

"Forget about it,"

He turned and left the room without another word, his eyes narrowed slightly.

I was left alone with my thoughts, trying to make sense of what he'd said, wondering why I felt like this- alone, betrayed, rejected...why I felt like I wanted him to have stayed there and let me kiss him.

But, after a few minutes of thinking…I decided it was probably for the best that he didn't. It would have made things too complicated if he had, especially since I had other problems to deal with…

Like my newly-discovered crush.

Me: There's the end. Hope you liked it! Please review!

Sasuke: WHAT?!

Me: (calmly) What's wrong, Sasuke? (blinks innocently)

Sasuke: How can you be so calm?!

Me: Why shouldn't I be?

Sasuke: My brother just kissed me!! That's why!!

Itachi: Correction. I merely brushed my lips on yours. That's not kissing.

Sasuke: Close enough!!

Itachi: Is no-

Me: Stop fighting or Itachi will have sex with you next chapter.

(Sasuke puts hands over mouth)

Itachi: Aw, you're no fun Sasuke. Oh well. (looks at me) So, when do I get to have sex with him?

Sasuke: NEVER!!

Me: Next chapter.

Sasuke: I'll shut up!

Me: Good. And, Itachi, I changed the rating to T.

Itachi: (goes into the emo-saddness corner) Wah…

Me: But I might change it back to M if I feel the need arouses, but I'm guessing it will.

Itachi: (comes out of emo-sadness corner) Yay.

Sasuke: No! Leave it at T!

Me: What were we saying about you guys having sex next chapter…?

Sasuke: No!!

Me: …Itachi, go get my duck tape.

Itachi: Sure. (returns) Here.

Me: Thank you. Sasuke, If you talk again, I will make you have sex with your brother in the next chapter and then duck tape your mouth, okay?

Sasuke: (nods)

Me: Good. review, please!
