Akastuki's Untouchable Angel

A/N: I'm sorry for the slow update, but, Cloud, my friend in the hospital, is alive and back in action! This is to all that didn't give up on me and showed your support to Cloud. He says thank you to you all! Thank you!! Please enjoy!

I started walking home slowly. Itachi at my heels. I know that he heard everything. It hurts my heart a little. I can't believe that man! I hate him so much! I can't believe I blurted that out like I did. Am I stupid?! The reason I didn't tell them about it was because I didn't want them to know!! Not for them to find out in one of the most terrible ways; over the phone. I kept it in my heart for so long.... maybe it was about time it came out!

That made me start to feel so much better. Until I see my family's face. Then I'm so worse again. I lied to them all this time. Every time one of them asked me if I was ok, it was a lie when I said yes! When they asked me that question, they were not directing it to the problem I was REALLY having but still. A lie is a lie. If there is something my brother and I hate a LOT, is a liar. My brother may kill, steal, threaten, fight, and a lot of other bad things, but NEVER lied. We both hate it so much, it makes us sick.

It makes me even more sick to know that I am the very thing that I hate. How sick and twisted is that? I wonder how disappointed in me, they are. Ino must be turning in her grave. God rest her soul. I feel so sick. So dirty. I wish I was anyone other then me.

Itachi was holding his things. He was looking at the ground. I watched him from the corner of my eye. He looked detracted as well. I pulled my eyes away from him. I watched the gravel. I feel an aching feeling in my heart. Boy, my hearts been on the frits all day today. Maybe it was the apple I had this morning. Damn apples. We soon crossed into Akatsuki territory. My stomach crunched. By the time we got 'home' I had thought up what I was going to say. I was going to be calm and rational about this whole thing.

I was going to tell them the whole truth. First I would sit them all down and tell them the story from the beginning. I would be specific. I would not answer any questions during my story. Then I will answer them all in the end. I will be proud that I told them the truth. I will be happy because they will all be there. For me. Yes, like a family. This all made me feel so special. So very happy.

Now I know...

We stopped in front of my home. I stared at it. Itachi was looking down at me with a hard look on his face. He may not know exactly what is going on other then I spilled a secret that no one knew at home and now their out for blood. In retrospect. They are out for MY blood, to be exact. I swallowed my fear for a moment and walked to the door. I climbed the stairs slowly. Itachi behind me. I catiously opened the door.

No one attacked me. They didn't start yelling either. I wish that they would though. All that they did was stare at me. I didn't like when they stared at me with that look of pure disappointment. It also had a touch of sadness and a look of maybe.... guilt? There is no reason for them to be guilty about anything. I'm the one who is gonna burn in hell. I'm the one that lied. I'm the one that was basically living a double life.

Pein looked over at me. I just wanted to rip out my own heart, it would hurt a lot less then the look my brother gave me. It looked so hurt, so distrusted, so.... alone. My brother, the man I love the most in the world, was in pain because of me. I feel like crap. I should though, right? I mean, I lied the whole time I was here! That's bad right? Especially sense I didn't lie to a bunch of friends, I lied to my family. People I will always love. They are the real influence on my life and I stabbed them in the back. I wouldn't be surprised if they all started to hate my guts and would never forgive me.

...that it may be hard....

"Why didn't you tell me?" Pein asked softly, like he couldn't believe it. I can't either! I looked away. "I don't know." I mumbled. It suddenly hit me, my brother always thinks there is an answer to everything. But before I could undo my mistake, my brother spoke. "You have to know, Sakura!" He snapped. I stared at him. My heart stung. Everyone looked at my brother. "How can you not know!? It was your choice not to tell us! Do you know how bad this looks!? Not only did you lie to us, but your family! We are your family and you lied to all of us! More importantly, you lied to me." he sounded hurt. I looked into his dark eyes.

Because I knew where to look, I saw the pain in his eyes. The betrayal. "I didn't know how to tell you!" I cried. Pein's eyes filled with anger. "'Didn't know' how to tell me?! Sakura! This could have made our lives a lot more simple!" he raised his voice. "And at the same time, it couldn't! What's done is done! So what if I told you!? It's not like you could do anything to fix it!" I raised my voice too. I stopped. We all did.

I took a deep breath.

...to tell the ones I love.....

"Nagato," I used my brothers real name. "I love you so much, big brother, with all my heart and soul. Everyone," I looked over the people I saw as my family. The ones that love me for me. "I love you guys so much, I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you all that I was hurt, that I was a monster. I just couldn't!" I cried. I wanted to cry so bad but of course no luck there. The Akatsuki shifted quietly. They all know this is between Pein and I. All the really hard battles are between Pein and I.

"Tell me all that happened." Pein ordered. I ran my had through my hair. At least he calmed down a little. "The whole story?" I sighed. Pein nodded. "The whole thing." I walked over to the couch. Sasori scooted over so I can sit. Kisame pulled up a chair for Itachi, who I forgot was here. Sasori put his arm around me. I leaned my head on his shoulder and began telling my story. From the beginning.

.....that to me.....

We stayed up almost all night, listening and telling.

...they are the most....

It was so emotional that I ended up crying into my brothers' arms. The only place I would forever feel safe. The only place.

....important people in my life.

A/N: I learned a small lesson that may sound simple now, but I didn't understand it before. I thought I lost him cause his heart stopped, and as they were taking him to the morge, he came back. For real. I cried my eyes out. Thank you all!! Please rate and review! Have the greatest day of your lives!
