So I've been getting requests to type some chapters in another person's view. Personally, I wanted to do it, but wasn't going to unless you guys asked, and you did, so a chapter with another POV will probably be around every ten chapters, could not happen and I'll do it whenever it feels right. Everything changes. Thanks for the support, you all. By the way, I'll be retyping chapters one, two and maybe three, because, well...They're shit. Seriously. I'll inform you guys if I ever do get up to it, though. I'm sorry I'm a little late with this chapter. I get distracted, shit happens with life, all that. Also, it's hard trying to get the entire chapters through Sasuke's perspective with some formerly unknown scenes on Kuroki's and Sasuke's growing friendship to...love? It's a short chapter, sadly.

The first day I met her was when she came to the Uchiha compound with Itachi-nii.

They were walking side by side, and were glancing at each other they had a conversation I couldn't hear.

This girl was kind of scary, she had scars already and she was probably a few years older than he was. Her skin was a little uncommon, but he didn't mind, unless it was blue. She was naturally dark, including the clothes she wore. But her appearance wasn't what scared me so much.

It was her eyes.

No matter how much I looked at the almost black orbs, they had no reflection, like someone who was dead or their eyes were made of glass. But even glass reflects, right? What did she want with my Itachi-nii?

"Nii-san!" I called, running up to them from the main house, and my brother smiled warmly at me as I ran, stopping and kneeling on one knee and spreading his arms out for me to run into. I jumped into his embrace, and he chuckled at my tight hug, wrapping his arms around me. I felt safe, and I grinned as an effect from loving my brother so much. I really was going to become just like him and dad!

Then I remembered that girl.

As Itachi-nii stood up, towering over me, I grabbed his pant leg and hid behind him, frowning at the strange girl I'd never met before. She was looking at me, her non-reflective eyes staring into my onyx ones. I couldn't read her eyes, they showed me nothing. It scared me.

"Sasuke, this is Kuroki-chan." Itachi-nii introduced the scary girl. Her name was Kuroki? I was suddenly in front of her now, my brother's hands planted on my shoulders to stop me from running away. I hesitantly looked up at the girl called Kuroki. She grinned, although it was a little strange, something between a smirk and a grin. This girl is so weird.

"Hey, there." She greeted, giving me a small wave. Her voice wasn't like the other girls I met...somehow it was a lot deeper, yet still high-pitched. I frowned a little and looked down, fidgeting.

"Hi..." I replied reluctantly, what did she want with Itachi-nii?

"Alright, enough with the introductions. Let me see how your training is going." Itachi-nii said, releasing me. I whirled around and grinned up at my big brother.

"Okay! I'm a lot better at throwing shurikin now!" I boasted, wanting to show off to my brother.

"Shuriken, you mean?" Kuroki-san pointed out. I looked to her, but she was looking at a tree. I pouted, not liking to be corrected.

"Right." I admitted, my tone changing whenever I talked to her, but I quickly became a lot happier when talking with my brother. I grabbed his hand and began to pull him to the main house, an amused smile on his face as he let me drag him along, Kuroki-san following. "Let's go! I want to show you how good I am!"

We were in the indoor training area inside the main house, because it was really big, we could fit one in. There were real weapons on the racks, but Itachi-nii and my mother said not to touch them just yet, so they let me use fake ones but they weighed the same as a real one. Itachi-nii and that girl, Kuroki-san were watching me as I threw the shuriken at the target, which was a stuffed sack barely making out a human shape. I threw three of them, one after the other. I had hit the sack where the large target point had been twice, but just grazed the shoulder of it with the third. I was a little disappointed with that.

I heard clapping, and I had expected to see Itachi-nii be the one doing the action, but it was that strange girl. She wore that strange smirk-grin and was clapping in approval. I blinked at her, obviously confused with how she reacted.

"That's pretty amazing for a four-year-old, isn't Itachi?" She complimented, which confused me even more. Her head tilted so she could look at Itachi-nii, and my eyes followed hers, landing on my big brother who was looking at me with a small smile. Knowing that meant I had improved, I grinned brightly.

"Expected from my little brother." He praised, and I was beaming at the comment. I ran up to him, quickly jumping up and grasping his shirt, his hands quickly picking me up before I fell back to the ground. I giggled as I nuzzled his neck.

I'm not sure how long we'd been in the training area, but Itachi-nii gave me pointers on how to improve, and I gladly soaked in all the knowledge. I found out that Kuroki-san actually knew of all the things Itachi-nii were saying. I didn't expect her to. I was even more surprised when Itachi-nii said that they often trained together. When the sun was about to set, Kuroki-san looked out the window and gasped.

"Motherfuck! I'm going to be late!" She exclaimed in a panicked tone. I blinked.

"Motherf-" I was about to repeat the word she said in confusion, but Itachi-nii quickly slapped a hand over my mouth. I looked up at him, and he was smiling softly at me.

"Kuroki-chan has a habit of...saying bad things." Itachi-nii told me. "Please don't repeat them."

I nodded, and he dropped his hand. I had to make sure not to say them, so Itachi-nii will be proud. I looked back over to the strange girl, and to my surprise she was halfway out the window and ready to jump out.

"Sorry, guys, I have to go. Later!" She called, giving us a small wave before disappearing from the window. I heard Itachi-nii sigh.

"Why was she here, Itachi-nii?" I asked, pouting a little. I was afraid she'd occupy more of his time and leave me alone.

He smiled at me, reaching down and ruffling my hair. I gasped and immediately tried to pry his hand from my now messed up hair. "Kuroki-chan is a nice girl, even if she's a little strange." He replied. Strange was an understatement. "Get along with her; she has a fiery yet somehow lazy personality." Fiery yet lazy? Yeah, this girl was definitely the strangest girl I've met.

Over the weeks, Kuroki-chan had come to visit more often. I slowly got used to her, but she always surprised me with new words or actions, ones that Itachi-nii told me to never copy. I was training outside, throwing the fake shuriken at a target specially made from weapon throwing. I got a lot, but missed a lot too. Itachi-nii said that he had to go on a mission, and asked Kuroki-chan to watch over my progress in his absence.

I was uncomfortable, even if I was able to now call her Kuroki-chan instead of Kuroki-san. Even after these couple of weeks, she still kind of scared me, and it was affecting how I was when throwing shuriken.

"Sasuke quit being distracted." Her voice suddenly said, but it sounded too close to me, causing me to whirl around in a panic. I saw her, standing behind where I once was before I backed up a few steps.

"Don't scare me like that, Kuroki-chan!" I exclaimed, holding a hand to my heart in hopes of trying to calm it. The strange girl snickered lightly.

"My bad. But I mean it, you should stop being distracted." She said after calming from her snickers. "Just because Itachi isn't here and I'm the one watching over you doesn't mean you can start slacking off and letting yourself get distracted, you hear me?" I blinked up at her. Then I frowned.

"I wasn't getting distracted." I replied, crossing my arms in defiance. She simply smirk-grinned at me.

"How about I show you how to throw three shuriken at the same time?" She offered, moving to pick up the fake shuriken. My eyes widened, and I dropped my arms.

"No way! You can do that?!"

"Yeah. It's not so hard once you learn how to do it." She replied, moving next to me, three shuriken in her hand.

"You see how there's three targets in a vertical line?" Kuroki-chan asked, I looked and nodded. I'd been throwing the shuriken at the lowest one.

I was waiting for her to reply, but all of a sudden, her arm shot out and three things zipped through the air and embedded themselves in the targets. One shuriken in the middle of each target, perfectly aligned! I gasped in awe, there's no way! They were fake shuriken!

"I guess I threw them with such force they were able to embed themselves in the targets." Kuroki-chan explained, scratching the back of her head with a slightly awkward grin.

"That..." I started, Kuroki-chan looking over to me and waiting. "That was so cool!" I exclaimed, grinning and grasping her hands and trying to pull her around in circles. I giggled.

"Teach me, Kuroki-chan! Teach me!"

Kuroki-chan smirk-grinned. "Fine, but don't be surprised when they don't stay on the target."

I nodded enthusiastically. The strange girl called Kuroki-chan was actually really cool!

"I have to go now, Sasuke." Kuroki-chan said, I looked to her, and she was looking towards the sky. The sun was setting, and the sky was mixed with fiery colours. I pouted. I didn't want her to go.

"Okay..." I replied, I wanted to argue, but she probably had to go and do her training too...she turned to me and smirk-grinned.

"Don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow." She assured me. I blushed and looked away, I didn't want to make it seem like I wanted her to stay, even if I did. "See that grassy hill over there?" She asked, and I looked to where she was pointing. There was a large grassy hill not too far from here. It looked big enough to overlook Konoha.

"Meet me there in the morning, okay?"

I nodded with a smile. "Okay!"

I had begun to see Kuroki-chan as a big sister, someone else I could look up to, even if she was a little weird. We always met at the grassy hill, I had even told Itachi-nii about it, and whenever he could, he'd come with me to meet up with her. Sometimes I would get sick and be unable to go, which made me really upset, but my big brother said he'd visit her for me. That made me happy.

I had known her for a year now, I think. She's already someone really close to me, and she's helped me fill the gap of loneliness whenever Itachi-nii wasn't around. There were some days when neither of them would be able to watch me train, and sometimes I would feel really lonely. But I still tried my best, so I could show them just how much I improved.

One time, Itachi-nii took me on a mission to catch a wild boar. I had been ecstatic, and he gave me a bow. He told me not to hit any vital points, but I couldn't even hit it at all. I was really upset about it, but we eventually defeated the boar. I said sorry a bunch of time, and Itachi-nii said that I needed to train more.

Kuroki-chan and I were walking around the compound, to where, I'm not sure. She said she was taking me to some place for training. I felt curious about something, and it had been bugging me for a while.

"Kuroki-chan." I called her name softly, looking up at her with curious eyes. She grinned.

"Mm?"

I started to fidget a bit, feeling myself start to blush; I looked down at the ground. I was unsure how to ask. I could hear her half-snicker, but she quickly stopped herself, I frowned, looking up with an annoyed expression. She was having fun with my awkwardness. "Are you a genin?" I asked, finally.

At first, she seemed a little surprised by the question, and then she averted her eyes to a nearby tree and waved a dismissive hand in my direction. She had a habit of doing that. "Nah, I'm at the level though." She replied with that strange grin of hers. "I'm entering the academy next year."

I was surprised, really. Kuroki-chan was going to the academy the same time as me? I soon smiled up at her. "I'm entering then too!" I exclaimed with happiness that Kuroki-chan, who was like my big sister, was going to be going to the academy with me. But then I frowned, looking down at her stomach in thought. "But aren't you seven? You should be in the academy or graduated by now." I asked, it was strange; she should've been in the academy last year.

We had stopped on a small hill within the compound. She moved to sit down, soon sighing and looking to the sky. I decided to follow her actions, and sat beside her, bringing my legs to my chest and wrapping my arms around them as I looked to her with curiosity. She glanced to me. "I decided to start later. My parents train me and teach me way more than what the Academy can do, so an extra two years of more training would help me more." She explained to me, suddenly frowning for some reason. I turned and looked to the grass.

"That makes sense..." I commented just barely above a whisper. But if she had gone last year, she would've been close to graduating, and she'd be a genin soon enough, but she chose not to. Does she have no one she wants to beat; does she not want to become stronger so she can prove herself? I want to be able to surpass Itachi-nii, as much as I love him, so my father will finally notice me. But...argh!

"Wha-?! Hey!" I shrieked, scowling as I removed Kuroki-chan's hand from my now messed up hair. She snickered. I was attempting to fix it back up when she suddenly started to full on laugh. I glared at her, she's laughing at me! I pushed her, and she fell easily, holding her stomach as if it hurt too much to laugh.

"Not funny." I pouted; I could feel myself blush, so I looked away from her. She went silence for a few moments, so I turned back to her, and she was looking at me funny. "W-What?" I stuttered, feeling really uncomfortable. She sat up, coming closer to my face. My face felt really hot, and I tried leaning back, but she suddenly grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me to her. She was hugging me, and I started squirming uncomfortably.

"Kuroki-chan?" I asked, my heart was beating really fast. What's happening?

"One day, you'll overcome the wall that is your brother." Kuroki-chan said, I was a little confused. "One day, you'll be just as talented as your brother." What? Before I could think, she grabbed my shoulders and pushed me back, holding them as she looked in my eyes. I was really surprised with her, but she smiled slightly. Could my face get any hotter? Her smile...

It's so pretty.

Then I frowned, quickly looking to the side. Where did that thought come from? "Of course, I'll always be able to kick your ass."

My eyes snapped towards her, my eyes narrowing in determination. "No way! I won't let you beat me either!" I exclaimed, quickly standing up and pointing at her for...for emphasis! "I'll show you, Kuroki-chan!"

She smirked. "Let's see you try." She stood up, and I had to look up at her because she was taller. I will beat her!

I gradually became a lot closer to Kuroki-chan. She was more than a sister-like person to me, she WAS my sister. The first time I went to visit her home, her mother scared the crap out of me. She was a really pretty woman, her emerald eyes were always shining with life and amusement. Her hugs though...they could kill. Literally. Aonami-san was rather energetic, and Kuroki-chan didn't seem to take after her much except for the dismissive hand gesture they both did. Kuroi-san was the one Kuroki-chan looked more like. They were so alike; one would be a fool not to see the immense similarities. They both had the same skin tone, same eye colour, same spiky black hair and the traditional dark rims of their eyes. Even their personalities were the same, both rather laid-back and easy-going, yet scarily sadistic at the same time.

Whenever I watched Kuroi-san and Kuroki-chan training, they looked like they were ready to kill each other, well, Kuroi-san was obviously holding back, but he still had a look that showed Kuroki-chan was quite the duellist. She was amazing at taijutsu, pretty good at ninjutsu, but she was horrible at genjutsu. It was her greatest weakness. She could barely cast them, and she was easily trapped in them, only when it was a genjutsu with something she obviously wouldn't fall for, like her mother being severely injured and dragging herself towards her child for help, then she could break it. Kuroi-san normally always had to punch her to get her out of it, and I was really surprised every time, because they looked painful, and yet Kuroki-chan acted as if she was fine! She's really amazing.

Itachi-nii and her were really close too, but I wasn't jealous, we were a family, I believed, and I couldn't really see my big brother with my big sister. He helped me train, and I did get better, now Kuroki-chan also inspiring me to be my best.

Before I knew it, the first day of school came, and I was more than excited, maybe Kuroki-chan would be in my class! The entire way, I was blabbering to Itachi-nii about how awesome it would be for her to be in my class, and he would chuckle and say 'We'll see'. There were so many kids. At first, I wasn't really perturbed by them, but soon, all these girls kept looking at me with a strange look, and it was uncomfortable. People were whispering about me as I walked up to the bulletin board. I looked up, trying to find my name. I eventually found it, but I didn't see Kuroki-chan's name. I felt really disheartened about that. Itachi-nii said he had to go and would see me at orientation, giving me a hug and a smile before I made my way to my class.

Now I felt even more uncomfortable. I shifted in my seat as all these girls were crowding around, speaking too many sentences altogether and giving me googly eyes. One had bright pink hair, but she was one of the lesser aggressive ones, another had some kind of fan-styled hair, and I could practically hear Kuroki-chan's insane laughter about the girl's hair. I sighed. I felt really alone. During lunch times, the girls would try to sit with me, and I had to constantly run away from them.

Ever since school had started, I rarely saw Kuroki-chan anymore. I knew she was at school, probably hanging out with that dog boy, Kiba. I don't know why, but I felt this pain in my chest whenever I thought of them hanging out together. I didn't like it. She did come around sometimes, and I was always excited, but it wasn't as much as she used to. I did work on improving my skills, but my father still had no intention of even glancing at me. It was...painful.

One lunch time, when I was running from the mob of insane girls, I bumped into some kid with blinding blonde hair. We both fell to the ground and rubbed our sore areas, groaning. "Watch where you re going!" He exclaimed.

"Shut up! You don't have a bunch of crazy girls after you!" I retorted childishly, and we glared at each other, keeping eye contact as we stood up. Our eyes narrowed as we each took a 'threatening' step forward.

"Serves you right!"

"How, huh?!" We both gripped the collars of our shirts and had a close glaring competition, we were making strange growling and groaning sounds for tension.

Then I heard those stupid fangirls, again! "Ugh!"

I pushed the blonde kid away, stepping past him to continue running away. "Dobe!" I called back. He growled behind me.

"TEME!" He yelled loudly as I distanced myself from him and the girls who were catching up to me.

That's how I met Uzumaki Naruto.

Time flew, and I was seven already. Naruto and I somehow became rivals since our first meeting, but I was always smug about the fact that I was always better.

But right now, I was training like usual, when my father suddenly came up to me.

"Sasuke." I turned to my father with a surprised and curious look; he was looking as stern and cold as ever, making me gulp when he was staring into my soul.

"Yes, father?" I asked, thankfully not stuttering.

"It is time for you to learn the Great Fireball Jutsu." He stated with that stern voice of his, and I gasped. No way!

"Really?!" I was ecstatic! Was my father finally recognising me?

"Yes. Take your stance now and do it."

Huh? Now? "But father, I've never done it before." I replied, I didn't know how to even channel chakra yet. Father sighed.

"Alright, I'll teach you. Come here." He stepped down the mini set of stairs leading to the outdoor training area, and I immediately ran up to him.

"Ready?" Father asked after teaching me how to do the Great Fireball Jutsu. I nodded, bending my knees and making the signs with my hands, I took a deep breath, I can do this!

I only produced a small flame with some pathetic smoke behind it. I cringed at how horrible it was.

I heard a sigh, and looked to its owner. "Itachi was able to achieve it on his first try when he was your age. I'm disappointed, Sasuke." He couldn't even look at me and he turned, his back retreating from my view and soon disappearing within the main house walls. I blinked away the forming tears, rubbing my eyes to help. My chest hurt, I wanted to cry. Why couldn't I be like Itachi-nii?

The next day, I want up to the grassy hill where I usually went to meet up with Kuroki-chan. She would always be here whenever I come up, and I wanted to talk to her...Itachi-nii was busy and couldn't talk, even though he wanted to. I sat with my legs brought up to my chest, hugging myself tightly as I stared sadly at the swaying green grass. I was never good enough for father...I couldn't do anything that he wanted me to do.

"Miss me?"

I jumped back, my hands unfolding from my legs to support me as I leaned away from the voice that scared the crap out of me. I saw a pair of feet covered in black sandals with their shins wrapped in bandages, and I travelled up to the baggy black pants...the dark hoodie...the visible part of the mesh shirt...the scar on the neck...to the face I missed so much. She was smirk-grinning down at me, and I frowned, feeling my face heat up in embarrassment. I always knew how to make a fool of myself around her.

"You scared me." I mumbled in reply to her unexpected question as she sat in front of me with her legs crossed, the slope of the hill causing her to tilt her head up to face me. She snickered.

"I figured." She stated with amusement lacing her tone, and I lightly glared at her. "What happened with your dad?" She suddenly asked, which through me off, making me blink a few times in confusion. Then I remembered she could read me like a children's book. I hated how she could.

"He tried teaching me the Great Fireball Jutsu..." I started, averting my eyes to the grass, ashamed to look at Kuroki-chan. "I couldn't get it on the first try, and he said Itachi-nii got it on his first try at my age...and that he was disappointed..." I could feel the tears welling up, and I tried blinking them away.

"A week." I glanced to Kuroki-chan, who looked kind of serious.

"What?" I asked, confusion was a natural emotion when around the one and only Kuroki-chan.

"If you keep trying to master it from today onwards, I believe it'll take you a week." She explained, soon smirk-grinning at me.

"Really, Kuroki-chan?" I asked, feeling really embarrassed that she had such faith in me. Then she did something I probably haven't seen for a long time.

She smiled.

It wasn't a grin, or a smirk, not any of them. It was a true smile, maybe not with her teeth showing, but it was a real smile! I felt my heart beat quickening, it was pounding against my rib cage, and I had to resort to pants because the breath was somehow knocked out of me. My heart beat was so loud in my ears; I was hoping she couldn't hear it and tell me to quiet down. I felt my knees trembling, and my whole body heating up. What was this feeling?! She leaned forward, raising a hand and sweeping my bangs away from my forehead and...and...resting hers against mine. She...She...She was so close!

"Are you okay, Sasuke? You're all red?" She asked.

I can't breathe! I feel light-headed. She's so close! Too close! I think I might pass out soon! W-wait...she...she asked me a question...

"W-...What?" I muttered softly, my mind was in a mess!

"I asked if you were okay."

"I-I...I...I'm...I'm f-fine!" I stuttered out pathetically, quickly scuttling backwards and away from her, leaving her to look at me in confusion.

"Well...I don't believe you...but I have to go. I'll see you later, okay?" She asked casually, standing up and brushing off the dirt that gathered to her clothes. I nodded meekly. I don't think I could form words at this stage. She smirk-grinned and bent her knees, soon disappearing and leaving a small cloud of dust.

I placed a hand to my heart quickly, trying to calm it down. I was breathing in rasps. What was this feeling? I felt butterflies in my stomach, I felt light-headed. Was something wrong with me?

A week had passed since that scary event. I asked mum what the feeling was, and she said it happened when you're around someone you loved. That made sense. I must've just been flustered because I rarely saw her smile...but I never reacted that way before. Maybe I didn't love her back then. It put me at ease, to say the least.

"Father."

My father looked to me from the dining table, lowering the newspaper he was intrigued in reading. His eyes were always judging and cold to me...but mum always said that he cared a lot about me. I was still having a hard time believing her though. His silence meant he was listening to me and waiting.

"I've mastered the Great Fireball Jutsu." I reported as seriously as I could. It really did only take me a week to master, which pleased me greatly. I had a bandage on the left side of my cheek, and I felt like I was probably covered in scratches, bruises and dirt. Father's eyebrows shot up in surprise.

"Oh?" He asked, a tone of mild surprise from him was confusing and rare. I gulped, nodding. He folded his paper, placing it on the table and standing up. "Show me then."

"Kuroki!"

Kuroki-chan turned around from the grassy hill when I called her name; I was running to her with so much energy, my cheeks began to hurt from smiling too much. As soon as I was close enough, I jumped at her, ready to tackle her in joy. She looked a little surprised before quickly catching me and manoeuvring her feet to keep us both upright. I giggled madly in her chest as I tightened my grip on her.

"You seem insanely giddy!" Kuroki-chan exclaimed. I finally managed to tilt my head and look up at her; my smile seemed to be blinding her momentarily.

"I did it! I showed my dad! I was able to do it! Like you said! I could do it in a week!" I announced one after the other without taking a breath, so I was panting pretty hard since I just ran from the Uchiha Compound to here, then yelled my accomplishments.

"No way! Really?! That's awesome!" Kuroki-chan grinned hugging me tightly and chuckling. She let us drop to the floor, both of us now sitting on the hill with giggling moods.

It took us effectively fifteen minutes to calm down, and even longer for me to finish my exciting accomplishment. Kuroki-chan listened to everything, and I knew I was blushing the whole time...but what I really wanted form her...was that smile. I was anticipating it. Then when I finally finished my story, my heart skipped a beat and I felt my face start to warm furiously. There were butterflies in my stomach and I couldn't help but stare helplessly at her smiling. Somehow...the world stopped whenever she smiled. I don't feel like this with Itachi-nii...maybe it's different with big sisters.

"Told you it'd only take you a week." She commented, her smile changing to her casual grin. I finally released the breath that she caused me to hold in, and I grinned nervously at her.

I had no idea that it would only take me a week to fall for her as well, though I had no idea.

Alright, let me say this; I hate it. So bad. Like holy shit. I think I may have a case of A.D.H.D. Goddammit. I'm sorry for it being so late, and not having that much. I think I'll put Sasuke's POV into two or so chapters instead, seeing as I just can't finish this chapter to how many words I want it in time. I was getting impatient yet I wanted to make it a gradual chapter. Guess it didn't really work . I've had a messed up week, and that may have affected it. Also with Harry Potter. God, Draco is hot, but such a douche. Seriously, anyone seeing a pattern with Sasuke being attractive but a dickhead, and now Draco, who's almost exactly alike in that perspective. I hope that's not my type in real. ANYWAYS. I barely had any reviews for my last chapter, and I'd love it if you followers and favourites would review, because it would help a lot, and I actually feel less reluctant to get distracted and get on with the story. Not enough reviews means less motivation. NOW TELL ME HOW THIS CHAPTER WAS. Please?
