Srry I havent updated in a while I was busy and then school started but I'll try to update sooner. So enjoy this chapie!!!
Sasuke stormed through the hotel to his brother's room. He didn't bother knocking; he forced the door open scanning the room for his brother. He found him sitting at the desk in the corner of the room,
Itachi didn't look up from the work he was doing until Sasuke was standing beside him. "Why did you agree to let Tsunade send me to some kind of camp?" Sasuke growled. He didn't care how he was acting toward his brother. He wanted answers; he wanted to know what good his brother saw in this recovery program.
"I agreed to send you, because going will help you." "I don't need help, you don't care you just don't want me to snap one day and ruin your income." Itachi looked up at his younger brother.
"I do care about you, Sasuke." "No you don't, you only care about yourself that's how it's always been." "Even before mom and dad died." Itachi stood up placing his hands on Sasuke's shoulders.
"That's not true." "Yes it is they always liked you better!" "All they cared about was you!" "All you care about is you! " Sasuke was shaking; the tears he was holding back were stinging at the corners of his eyes.
Talking about their parents always had him like this. He hated it feeling so weak when he talked about them. They'd always liked Itachi better, always. "I hate you Itachi!" "I've always hated you!"
Itachi took his hands off his brother. "Maybe you do hate me, but don't you see this is why I'm sending you." "You need to get past this." He reached out to touch Sasuke's hand. Sasuke slapped it away, "Don't touch me." "Maybe I will go, so that I can get the fuck away from you!" "Screw you Itachi!"
The younger Uchiha turned around, walking fiercely out the door. Leaving his brother standing there speechless.
Naruto sat on his bed thinking about what he'd just heard. He had been walking past Itachi's room in search of Sasuke who had been avoiding him since they kissed at that party last weekend. When he heard someone yelling, he stood closer to the door, he realized it was Sasuke yelling at his brother.
He'd ducked behind the corner when Sasuke came out of the room anger clearly written on his face. He went back to his room figuring now wasn't the best time to talk to Sasuke about the "kiss." So it is his brother. Well his brother is one of his problems.
/They died when I was nine, they were murdered/ Sasuke looked at the blonde then at the floor. /mine died too when I was seven, they were also murdered/
His eyes widened as he remembered what Sasuke had told him. His parents were murdered. That is something we have in common. Wait could he be the other….
His thoughts were cut short when he heard the sound of a guitar playing in the room next to his. He walked out of his room to Sasuke's and leaned his ear to the door to listen.
I try to make it through my life, in my way, there's you
I try to make it through these lies, and that's all I do
Just don't deny it,
Sasuke let out all of the frustration he was feeling into the song he had written. His whole life seemed to be a lie, and he couldn't understand it all. His brother was just the root of the lies.
Don't try to fight this ,and deal with it
and that's just part of it, If you were dead or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (I swear),I don't care
Itachi was only trying to break him, get him to admit that he needed….that he needed help. He didn't need anyone especially not his perfect brother. He didn't care anymore if Itachi was alive, he should have died with their parents. /No I should have died with them; I should be with them instead of here. /
I try to make you see my side
Always trying to stay in line
But your eyes see right through
That's all they do
I'm getting buried in this place
I got no room your in my face
don't say anything just go away
He wanted Itachi to see his side of things, but he never would. He tried to stay as far away from Itachi as possible. He wanted him gone, he wanted to be alone but at the same time he wanted someone who would understand him. This made him think of Naruto he quickly pushed the thought away focusing on the song.
If you were dead or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
Just go and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (swear) I don't care
love changing everything
you won't be left for me
Was love changing things? The love he once felt for his brother seemed to be gone. Itachi wasn't there for him, he never had been.
If you were dead or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
Just and and leave this all behind
Cause I swear (I swear) I don't care
If you were dead or still alive
I don't care (I don't care), I don't care (I don't care)
Just go ahead and leave this all behind
I don't care (I swear), I don't care
At all...
He finished the song, he felt better but still frustrated. He still had to deal with what happened between him and Naruto. He didn't feel like thinking about that right now. He put his guitar away and laid down. Focusing on sleeping, but he didn't know Naruto had been at the door listening this whole time.
I have a feeling that song was directed at his brother, their only ones left of their family.
Shouldn't they be closer instead of so distant? If I had a brother I'd be closer to him.
He sighed. I don't know, but I do know that I still need to talk to Sasuke I'm not going to let him keep distancing himself from me.
He needs me even if he doesn't think so.
The limo Naruto and Sasuke were sitting in pulled up to the gates of Kitsune Recovery Camp. Slowly they got out of the car and stood in front of the gates as the limo drove away. Sasuke couldn't believe he was here and he couldn't believe he was going to be stuck with Naruto for two months. The gates opened allowing the two boys entry; they looked at each other then slowly started walking to the mansion.
When they reached the porch, there were four other kids waiting at the doors of the mansion. The turned to look at the boys as they walked up the steps, one girl with pink hair stopped talking to the girl with four blond pigtails sticking up from her head to stare in disbelief at the blond boy walking up the stairs.
He looked familiar to her, but she couldn't remember where she has seen him before. She opened her mouth to greet them but closed it when the doors to the mansion opened. A man with unnatural spiky gray haired walked out on the porch followed by a man with brown hair pulled up into a ponytail.
"Welcome to camp Konoha, I'm Kakashi the camp director and this is Iruka the camp counselor we will be the ones looking after you for the next few months and guiding you in the right direction." "Today we'll get you into your dorms and settled and tomorrow we will start out first activity."
"Now Iruka will take the girls up to their dorms and I will take the boys." "Boys follow me." Kakashi walked on the boys of the group close behind. The group walked up the stairs of the mansion into the dorms. "Alright, there are two people in each dorm I have your roommate and room number on this when I call your name find your roommate and your room and get settled."
"Gaara and Neji, room number 101." "Kiba and Shino, Room number 102 and "Naruto and Sasuke Room number 103."
"Find your roommates and get settled a counsler will be sent up to get you for dinner."
"Great I'm stuck with that idiot this is going to be awkward." Sasuke thought to himself.
Naruto opened the door to his and Sasuke's room. The room was simple, two beds covered with plain sheets and two dressers and a single desk in the corner. Naruto walked over to one of the dressers and started putting away his clothes.
He took out the picture of his parents and sat it on top of the dresser. Looking at it for a moment before turning away. He turned his attention to Sasuke who was still unpacking. "Sasuke you know were going to have to talk about sooner or later." Sasuke went still for a moment.
"There's nothing to talk about, we were drunk that's it." "People do things they don't meant when their drunk." "What we did meant nothing to you?" "Of course not, I'm not gay." "Wait did our kiss mean something to you?"
"No, of course not." Naruto lied in truth that kiss had sparked feelings for Sasuke that he didn't know existed. "Sasuke actually I—he was cut off by a soft knocking on the door. Iruka, the camps counselor poked his head through the door.
"Dinner is ready please follow me." The boys did what they were told following Iruka and the other boys to the dining room. The dinning room was filled with teenagers talking among themselves. Naruto sat down beside Sasuke, picking at the food that was laid out before him.
"Alright everyone, lets start with introducing yourself and telling every one a fact about yourself." Iruka said. "We'll start with you he said pointing to a boy with long brown hair.
"My name is Neji I enjoy taking walks by myself." Iruka nodded that was good next. A red head with dark black around his eyes spoke. "I am Gaara where I am from the desert. "Nice to meet you Garra."
A few more people went then it was Sasuke's turn. "My name is Sasuke I like to play music." Iruka nodded then it was Naruto's turn. "I'm Naruto and I like Ramen." Iruka smiled "It's nice to meet all of you."
"Your free to go there are plenty of activities around so go find something enjoyable.
Sasuke set comfortably in the mansions library reading a book, while outside Naruto was playing basketball with the other boys. Sasuke watched as Naruto shot the ball into the goal receiving cheers and friendly hugs from his team mates.
"How can he get along with everyone so easily?" "Because he's warm hearted and kind and sweet and friendly and…." Sasuke caught himself smiling. "I can't think of him like that…it's just not…right."
"What happened between us meant nothing." Sasuke returned to his book clueless that Naruto couldn't get his mind off of him.
Naruto saw Sasuke sitting alone in the library and knew that the Uchiha was trying not to be sociable. Naruto was willing to let the counselors help him; he wanted to get over what was bothering him. "But Sasuke won't open up to anyone except me sometimes."
"I want him to get past his family we could do that together, I want him to open up and let others in." "But how will I ever get him to do that?"
Naruto walked into the library searching for Sasuke so that they could eat lunch together. He found the dark haired boy sitting in a chair in a corner his nose stuck in a book. "Sasuke lunch is ready; the counselors want us to come eat." Sasuke closed the book sitting it back on the shelf where it belonged.
He walked silently past Naruto in the direction of the dining room. Naruto followed talking about the friends that he had made today and the fun things that he found to do around camp.
Sasuke listened silently never voicing in on anything Naruto said. Naruto was so busy talking to Sasuke that he didn't notice the pink haired girl walking in his direction. They collided both falling to the floor. "I-I'm so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going." Naruto said as he helped the girl up.
"Its fine I wasn't really looking where I was going." The girl said. They're eyes locked and it was then that she knew where she had seen this blonde boy before. "Naruto, I haven't seen you in a long time."
Naruto's eyes widened with realization at who he was looking at "Sakura! I haven't seen you in a while either not since we broke up." The two walked on to the dining room together neither noticing the confused raven haired boy they left alone.
