Her

Chapter Ten

By JadenXJesse lover

A/N Yey for another chapter! Sorry for the slow update, I've had writer's block for thisbecause I've been reading too many Vampire Knight fanfics, but I've just seen Let Me In (good film, you guys should watch it) and I've had the light bulb eureka moment. So as always strong language... etc etc. We've skipped ahead, so it's now a month after the last chapter (plot wise) so yeah. Oh and sorry if Sasuke is a bit OC (or OOC?) cause he has to be a bit so the plot fits.

Let us continue then my dear little readers and hope you enjoy it ^^

A month afterwards

Sasuke was often, well to be more precise always, the first to wake up. He would awake in their dark room, shielded by tinted windows from the morning sunlight, with a small reluctance to get up. He would then look over his shoulder to see his beautiful angel, sometimes drenched in clotted red and dirtied clothes, sometimes completely naked under their shared duvet though always smiling. He would push the locks of pink hair covering her innocent, beautiful face and kiss her lightly on the blood-stained cheeks, after a while he just got used to the blood.

He would then walk quietly to the kitchen and turn the radio on; there were normally stories about corpses being found in rivers or in the middle of the forest, completely drained of blood or with marks on their necks... you know: the usual. He'd toast some bread, fry some eggs and cook some black pudding and then place it neatly on his mother's china. For a thirteen year old, Sasuke was quite the cook.

And then he would continue reading his book of the week, today it was Romeo and Juliet, for half an hour or so and then he'd greet his stubbornly waking sweetheart with a chuckle as Sakura had very bad bed hair. Her hair would just randomly spike up here and there or, more recently, fluff up like a little baby hatchling.

After eating breakfast, he would take a shower, change into his normal day-to-day outfit, kiss Sakura back to sleep (what else is a vampire supposed to do in the day?) and head off to school. When he got back he would find restocked food and supplies in the kitchen – he had no longer assumed it was his mum, now he just thought Sakura had gone out to buy them when it grew darker. Every day would have the same routine; though it may seem boring to any normal person, but if you're in love, every day with her would be a euphoric heaven.

Today, then, went as usual, except for the strangely foreign sounds he could hear as he walked into their flat. He could hear the hustle and bustle of foods and things being placed in their respective drawers and cupboards.

Wow, she's up early.

He placed his heavy schoolbag on the floor and took off his thin, short and black trench coat and hung his keys on a peg. As they jingled, however, the hustle and bustle in the kitchen abruptly stopped. All movement had ceased to a halt in the silent flat. It was as if Sakura didn't want him to hear her.

"Kura-chan?" He asked as he now crept towards the kitchen. "Are you ok?"

Silence still.

As he neared the light, he could see a shadow. A shadow much taller and masculine then Sakura's. A shadow he wanted rid of.

"I guess I've been found out then little bro'."

"Get out." Sasuke replied rudely and angrily. "Get out now! And if you've hurt my Kura-chan then God help you."

Itachi only laughed, as menacing as ever. "God?" He mocked, "Why would God want to help a spawn of the devil? Why should He strike down his own agent?"

"What the fuck are you even doing here? Actually, I don't care. Just get out!" He pointed to the door as he stared, quite pissed off, at his smirking older brother

"You shouldn't talk to your brother like that."

"Piss off!" He persistently shouted

"Come on now, Sasuke. Just calm down. Like I said to you before, I'm only doing this for your own good."

"Doing what?" Sasuke spat, "Trying to kill Sakura? Trying to kill me?"

"No... providing you with food, shelter, electricity and most importantly protection." He said, now serious

"W-what?"

"You don't seriously think that you could live in a flat for free? That food always mysteriously got here?" He said, slowly coming close to Sasuke

"W-well the council has lots of flats so one flat could easily be unnoticed." Said the stubborn raven-haired boy

"C'mon Sasuke-kun; I know you're not that naive. Think about it; you know our mum was dead for all those years, so who got you food?" Itachi now leaned in closer for a hug, a sweet caring smile on his face. "Like I said, little bro', I'll be here for you, even if you hate me."

He hugged his shocked and confused little brother, like a normal big brother seeing his little brother after so long.

"She's a monster, Sasuke-kun. She's an evil blood-sucking demon! You may think you love her, but to her, you're just a scummy little human servant that she can just eat whenever she's bored of you. That's why you should, please, let me help you. I can get you safely away and I've gathered enough info to convince the cops. C'mon little bro', remember when we were younger and you said you'd always want to live with me?" He said, a nostalgic smile appearing from the strangely joyful tears in his eyes.

"NO!" the younger brother said as he backed away, tears glistening on his cheeks, "I love her! I'll never leave her!" He said now, crying and enraged. He backed up and attempted to rugby tackle his older brother, but he only went through a shadow clone. As the shadow clone faded away, he could see and hear police cars nearing.

Sirens were blaring through the quiet night, red and blue lights flashing as they went around the bend and onto the tree-lined lane.

Quickly, he ran into the bedroom and began to pack. His hustle and bustle brought Sakura out of her afternoon bath, soaked and naked.

"Sasu-chan?" She asked, worried and anxious,

"I'm sorry, sweetie. I'm so sorry..." He hugged her tightly, crying momentarily,

"W-why?"

"He's got us. He's got us and he's got the police on us."

Without further questions she helped out with the quick packing; it helped, therefore, that she had vampire speed.

"I'm so sorry..." He continued, "I thought we could live peacefully in this quiet, little town. I thought perhaps we could live here forever, and have a little garden, maybe..."

"Shhh..." She replied, calming the poor inexperienced boy, "It's ok, maybe we can start new and fresh somewhere."

Soon both of them could hear the mass of footsteps raging up the stairs and down the corridor. Soon the chief inspector and Kakashi-sensei were at their door, shouting and yelling; Kakashi-sensei was extremely worried for Sasuke, because he was like a son to him. Soon the S.W.A.T team came and broke down the door. Soon they were all puzzled at the empty flat, two floors high, with an opened window and light footsteps in the snow.

...

"Tickets, please!"

The train conductor, in his red uniform, walked down the corridor of the prestigious Orient Express, through the pockets of people sitting in their comfortable chairs, looking out on to the Swiss Alps. This, kind-looking, bearded man approached a raven-haired boy, sitting alone with his large, human-sized, case.

"May I see your ticket?"

The young, pale-skinned boy reached into his duffel bag pocket to get out his ticket. He gave said ticket to the smiling conductor and, after it had been marked, was given it back.

"Is that yours, garcon?" said the French, train conductor

"Yes, sir." Sasuke replied politely as the Frenchman walked to his next passenger.

As he looked out at the beautiful, magnificent Alps, all covered in snow and dotted with pines, he tapped on his box and was replied by the same message. Tap, tap. Tap, scratch, tap, tap. Scratch, scratch, scratch. Tap, tap, tap, scratch. Tap. Tap, tap, scratch.

I love you.
