Boy In The Basement
Chapter 4 – Sasuke
HELLO! WELCOME TO CHAPTER FOUR! :D ENJOY!
The whole week went by without another peep from the newly named 'boy', Sasuke. Once I realized I recognized his name from the poster that said 'May our thoughts and pray go to Sasuke Uchiha's recovery', I immediately asked questions which apparently he didn't like because he disappeared. I thought about asking Mr. Uchiha at school who Kiba informed me was the older brother of Sasuke but I skipped once because every time I got the nerve to ask he'd glare at me.
I coughed loudly, running a hand through m hair tiredly. I pushed my homework off the bed with a thump and lay down. Staring at the ceiling I sighed. My eyes slowly started to close when I heard a rustling sound in my closest. "Sasuke?"
"Hm?"
I sighed when I heard the barely audible response, "Are you okay?"
He laughed, "I should ask you that. Usually people have figured me out by now and have moved out. But you've actually made it a whole week. I'm impressed."
"I'm impressed you just said 4 complete sentences without disappearing."
He grunted.
"Plus I said I wouldn't leave."
"You haven't seen me yet."
"I'm waiting for you to explain."
He laughed once again, "I refuse to explain. Figure it out."
"Does this game give you some sort of satisfaction?"
I felt the bed sink in next to me. "This isn't a game."
"What would you call it then, ?"
I heard him breathing, "It's my life."
"I'm going to figure you out, Uchiha."
He snorted, "You won't be here long enough."
-Saturday Morning-
"Papa, can I use the laptop?"
Iruka looked at me and I gave him the best puppy dog eyes I could. "Yes, you can."
I laughed at the sigh in his voice and grabbed the laptop jumping down stairs. The door at the top was left open at request from Kakashi.
I booted up the laptop and drummed my fingers against the side of it in a unknown beat. I quickly typed in my password 'ramen' and opened up FireFox. I thought quietly for a moment to myself. What sort of things that Sasuke have already said would give me any clues to what happened to him and what he actually is.
I pulled up google and typed in my address. There was an accident here, that's for certain. I clicked on the first link which lead me to a local news website.
"Uchiha House Fire, Parents Dead, Sons injured!"
I gulped and continued scrolling down.
"The Uchiha family was at home during a quiet Sunday afternoon on May 10, 2009 when I fire broke loose. The parents who were caught at the source of the fire were trapped and burned alive. Itachi Uchiha the older of the two children, went into the basement which was the younger sons bedroom in attempt to pull him out.
The condition of the two boys is unknown and currently they are at the local hospital.
Firefighters suspect this was a no accident. An arsonist is currently investigating."
I realized I was breathing heavy and had to quickly control it. "Naruto."
I jumped at the voice looking up to his my dad, Kakashi. I quickly slammed the laptop closed and looked up at him. He raised a brow, "Watching porn?"
I gasped, "I was not!"
He chuckled, "Iruka and I are going shopping, do you need anything?"
I thought for a minute before shaking my head. I watched him go up the stairs and then shut the door to my bedroom.
"You looked to be really getting into whatever you were doing, were you watching porn?"
I completely ignored the voice and stared quietly at the laptop, "You were in a fire last year."
Just like that it felt like the presence disappeared only to reappear behind my back, "What about it?"
"You were brought to the hospital."
"And?"
I shrugged my shoulders, "That's all I have right now."
"Pathetic."
"Asshole."
"Dumbass."
"Teme!"
"Dobe."
I growled, "Stop being such a dick!"
"If I'm being a dick, why do you still deal with me?"
"See! You push people away! That's why everyone leaves isn't?"
He laughed, "No. I wish it was, it's because when they take one look at me they're disgusted."
I opened up the laptop and quickly typed in his name. "What are you doing?"
I ignored him and opened up an article with his name. I gasped at the picture. "This is you?"
The boy had black eyes and blueish black hair. His skin was milky white and everything about him screamed 'handsome, I'm hot, fuck me'. I heard him dryly laugh.
"That's not me anymore."
I love you :)
Review! :D
