"The sex wasn't even that great anymore."
There. I had successfully cleared her smile. She had been too perky lately. She had seemed to be doing better again and I didn't like that. I didn't want her to be happy. She was easier to control and take advantage off when she was feeling down.
I shifted in my bed. I had expected her to react with rage. I had expected her to do something rash. I looked outside the window only to see a bird fittingly fly by. I would hate being a bird. Most people think of them as free because they can fly. I look at them as caged just because of that. Birds spend most of their life searching for and eating food to be able to fly. They were masters at foreplay, I have to give them that.
"I already know."
Regrets
My eyes were at her again. How could she had possible have known? Did one of the nurses see us and didn't dare to break in so they just told the woman in charge of the biggest nutcase?
"Your brother told me himself."
She had spoken to him? It made sense. I knew she worked fulltime but she didn't spend nearly enough time at her office to fill the hours. She was spending time with family. If I knew her right she had this fixed idea that we had broken our families as well.
Mine had been broken because I was not allowed to love my brother. It had been broken because she was keeping me locked up when I should be on the outside with my family. Sure mother would come to terms with the fact that her sons loved each other.
"Do you regret it like him?"
I slammed my fist down in the mattress immediately. She was lying. She was saying it only to get a rise out of me. He would never regret it. It was he who came to me because he still loves me and needs me.
"You're hurting him, Itachi."
I took a firm grip of the vase with the flowers mother had brought me. With precision I hadn't been able to perform with since before the accident I slammed the vase on the wall above the door. I screamed in the most animalistic yell I could muster. She was all lies. She was working against all of us. I hated her. I would never hurt my baby brother.
"YOU'RE A LYING CUNT AND YOU WILL BURN IN HELL!"
I tried finding something else to throw like I hadn't already made my point. I grabbed the book she had given me as well and slung it. I had used most my power on the vase and it didn't go far. Still she had gotten the point. I was raging.
"I HATE YOU!"
"Why are you acting with such fury? Is it because you know I'm right?"
She wasn't right. She was lying. Sasuke and I had made a promise not to let them get to us because they would only try to break us up like she was trying to do. She was lying. He would never betray me, betray us like that. He knew better than to let her under his skin. He would never speak to her in such a fashion about us.
"I wish you could see how much your actions hurt your brother. How he is suffering under your abuse."
"IT'S LOVE!"
I started pushing the red button over my bed. I needed someone to remove her. She couldn't be her to poisoning my mind. Not when I was recovering. I needed a calm and safe environment.
"I think it's time that you'll get to read what your brother wrote you a month after you were placed in our care."
There wasn't such a letter. It was another one of her lies.
"I have to warn you, it's rough but we need to move forward. I'm desperate for a breakthrough and I think this might help. When you're let out."
Sure, when I'm let out. She needed time to fabricate such a horrible letter. I was sure she would write about what a monster I was exploiting my little brother. She didn't know how he wrote. I would be able to see that it was she that had scripted it, within seconds.
A smiling nurse entered the room wondering why I had requested her presence.
"I need you to think about what you have done to him and what you are doing."
Ino got up on her beige high heels and gave a smile to the nurse. She got the idea pretty quickly and offered a nod before she was off again.
I turned my back to Ino. She had no right telling me such lies that he had regretted it. It was just a play she was putting on to break me. She was pinning me against him with lies. I knew and could feel in my heart that Sasuke needed and loves me. Nothing anyone could say and do would ever change that.
She had already failed. I focused on my breathing trying to calm down. It didn't help. All that ran through my head was her words he regretted it, it was almost as I could feel his metal rings against my lips.
They were cold. They didn't feel right, you weren't supposed to stab metal through your body like that. It wasn't natural. He would have to remove them for me. He would remove them for me. Sasuke always listened to his big brother because he knew the best.
There wasn't even the smallest chance that Sasuke could have regretted coming to me, be practically begging to be fucked. He was too eager he wanted it too bad to be regretting it after it was given to him. It didn't make sense. It wasn't true.
It was all lies but they had corrupted my mind.
I knew it was wrong. I knew you weren't supposed to penetrate you little brother. I knew that incest was wrong. I knew that we had been young, too young. Yet what we shared was love and love knows no boundaries.
