[Kisame's POV]

I plopped down on the bed and stared on the ceiling. Memories of the past kept on flashing back to me,continously breaking my heart "Itachi," I closed my eyes " I didn't mean to hurt you."

(FLASHBACK)

I was at the school backyard and silently reading a book,when I suddenly heard loud sobs. The place was usually quite since most of the students prefer to go on the cafeterias,seems like I was the only one who's very fond of this place so I was really surprised to know that there are still other people here other than me.I stood up and went to where the sobs are coming.

There,beside the large tree of cherry blossom,I saw an angel, well , not a real angel but he definitely looked like one. It was mid spring so the cherry blossoms were at full bloom making the scene even more beautiful,except that the 'angel' was was shaking with sobs and seems to be desperately trying to calm himself down.I slowly walked towards him.I cannot see his face because he was covering them with his hands.

I reached out to my pocket and pulled out a handkerchief.I sat beside him before handling it to him "Are you alright?"

He moved his hands away from his face.I almost gasped as I stared to this beautiful angel ,those beautiful onyx eyes,pink lips and rosy cheeks. I can feel a blush making it's way onto my face.

He stared down at the handkerchief for a while before accepting it."Sorry,Did I disturb you?"

I smiled."Not at all."

He wiped off the tears on his face before smiling shyly at me."Uhm,Thank you for this hanky."

"It's okay , why are you crying?" I ask

He seem to hesitate speaking or to talk about his problem to me."It's okay if you don't want to talk about it.I'll just leave if you need more privacy."

I was about to stand up when he suddenly grabbed my sleeve.

"No! It's fine really."

He clutched the handkerchief in his hands before speaking."Im just not comfortable voicing out my problems to other people," he smiled at me "But,you seemed to be a good guy so I guess I can tell you."

"Okay.I'll listen."

He took a deep breath before speaking."M-my boyfriend broke up with me,"

I just stared at him after he said those .He's boyfriend must have been an idiot for letting go of this angel.I was about to open my mouth to say something when he started speaking again.

"Last night,h-he force me into bed.I keep on telling him to stop 'cause im not yet ready for those things but he won't just lucky that my friend came to rescue me but after that he broke up with me,"his voice broke out at the last three words "he said that if I can't give myself to him then he don't need me anymore."

I can feel the anger rising on my dare that guy do this to him!Forcing him into bed then break up with him after this angel refuse!Im gonna beat the lights out of that guy when I see him!

I put my hand on his shoulder,trying to calm him down.

"Don't worry. Im sure that guy will regret what he did,letting go of such a beautiful angel such as you,nothing could be worse."I realized that I keep on calling him angel,well,I still don't know what his name is.

He stared at me,there was so much emotions in his eyes,until finally he smiled at me."Thank You."

I felt like I was on cloud nine just by seeing that smile.I feel warm on my chest.

"Anyway,Im Kisame Hoshigaki and you are?"

He held out his hand to me."Itachi Uchiha."

((TIME SKIP))

I was here at the school backyard again and reading a book. But my mind was actually somewhere else. It 's been a month since Itachi and I first met each other after that we've been friends and we both like to hang-out on this place maybe because this is the place where we first met.

I took a deep ,all I can think about is Itachi.I can't get him out of my head that I can't even focused on my studies anymore.I don't like this at all. This is all new to me. I don't like things that I can't control,like my growing fondness for Itachi. I've never fallen in love with anyone before. Wait, Me ,In love?Im Inlove?!

"Kisame!"

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Itachi's voice. He was running towards me.I closed the book that I was supposed to be reading and put it in my bag.

"Kisame…"

I smiled at him."What's the matter,Itachi?"

"I got something to tell you,"he looked at me seriously.

I tilted my head to the side in question.

He took a deep breath before speaking."Kisame,you have to listen very carefully okay?"

I nodded.

"Kisame, I ….." he was blushing hard now.

"Hmm?"

"I-I-I l-Love Yo-u."he stuttered.

I stared at him in shock. Before he came I was here having problems in how to deal with my growing fondness for him and then I even came to the realization that maybe I was inlove with him.

Suddenly,I just burst out laughing.I don't know why I did that but maybe I did it to calm myself in some way.

Immedietly his eyes saddened."It's not a joke don't laugh."

I wiped the tears of laughter from my eyes and stared seriously at him.

"Are you sure about how you feel,Itachi?Isn't it just because it's the time of the month?"

"Im not a woman!"

"Well,you look like one."

He took a deep breath."Listen, Im sure about what I feel.I've never been so sure in my life,just this once'" tears started to streamed down his face "I love You ."

I stared seriously at him."Look were still young and many things can still change,even your feelings for me. Im sorru but Its not gonna work out.I don't want to hurt you." I pick up my bag in an attempt to leave .

"How can you say that Kisame? Do you think this is easy for me?that I wanted this?I don't want to fall inlove with you either, youre the one who Brought yourself closer to me,and now your not even giving me a chance?," he took out the handkerchief that I gave to him when we first met "If that's what you want then don't show yourself to me agin. That way I can forget about you easily." He handed the handkerchief to me before running away.

(FLASHBACK ENDS)

I wanted to run after him that time.I want to tell him how precious he is to me,how much I care for him.I laughed brokenly. You won't really know the value of a person unless you lose him. After that incident only I realized that I was in love with him and due to so much depression I ask my parents to fix my transfer papers to America.

I want to hear his voice right now.I reach up to my phone since Pein give Itachi's phone number to me in case I need to ask him about something.I dialed up his number and waited for an answer.

"Hello."

"Hi, It's me Kisame."

"How did you get my number?"

"Pein give it to me."

There was silence."Itachi?"

"What do you want?"he sounded angry

"I just want to remind you that you need to get here early tomorrow,okay?"

"I already know that. Im hanging up."

"Wait-"

He already hang up on me.I sighed,Atleast I get to hear his voice.I closed my eys. Tomorrow is another day.
