The raven slept in his bed, whispering words into his phone. "Dope, why are you calling this late? It's almost two."
"Sasuke," Naruto whined.
The raven recognized that tone of voice. It usually came accompanied with a shivering lip and puppy eyes.
"What is it?"
"My life is over..." He spoke desperately. "Bye, cruel world-"
"Let me guess, you want me to send you the answers to the math assignment."
"Have I ever told you how stunning you are? I get why girls are always chasing after you. Sasuke Uchiha, you are one sexy smart man!"
"Don't you feel a bit cheap, whoring yourself for answers," the raven smirked enjoying it.
"Teme, just send me the damn answers! I am half asleep, and the last thing I want is to be on the phone with you in the middle of the night."
"Yeah, what can I do without you disturbing my sleep," he mocked. "I am not sending you the answers. Do the assignment yourself.
"Sasuke..."
"Back to begging?"
"Pweaaaaaase!"
"Shut up," he couldn't help but smile. He was enjoying this too much for his own good.
"It's twenty percent of the grade, and I already got Ds on the first two mid terms!"
"You should have studied when I told you to."
"I should... I should..."
"Fine, I will send it to you-"
"Thanks-"
"On one condition."
"I knew you don't have any goodness in your heart."
"Say; Sasuke, you are the smartest man in the world. You are smarter than me."
"..."
"Say it."
"Hey Sasuke, I thought you are not into childish stuff, what happened?"
"I met you. Now, say it."
"I won't say it!"
"Fine say; You're too beautiful, my heart hurts."
"..."
"Hn."
"You're too much, narcissist."
"Say it," Naruto could hear him smirking.
"Shame on you, Sasuke Uchiha. I thought you were more mature than that."
"Good night, I need to sleep."
"Sasuke!" He whined again. "Send it to me."
"Say it first."
He whimpered in frustration, "Teme..."
"Say it- Wait someone is knocking on my door. I will send it later."
As a hand banged onto the wood, the raven made his way to his door, turning the knob. As soon as the door slid open, Itachi stumbled in.
"What's wrong with you?" Sasuke scrunched his nose at the foul stench of alcohol. "Are you drunk?"
Hiccups and stifling followed for the older brother, as he got under Sasuke's sheets. "Come here, little brother. I am cold." He tapped the mattress twice.
"I am getting you some coffee."
A hand grabbed him, pulling in onto the bed.
"Don't you love your brother?" The older brother lowered his face against Sasuke's, who looked away, and pushed the other's forehead with all his mighty.
Itachi's back slammed the wall, head thudding against the concrete.
"Are you okay?" Sasuke pulled him up, digging his fingers into his brother's hair to make sure there is no blood.
"Why do you keep pushing me away?"
"What got into you?" Sasuke glared. "You never get drunk."
"I n-never get drunk. I n-never get anything I want. I never do a-anything I want," his head fell onto the pillow, as he rubbed the skin almost too harshly.
"Is that what you want? Getting drunk and stumbling all over the place-"
"I want you, Sasuke..."
The raven gulped, "You need to sleep."
"I love you... I love you a lot..."
"Just sleep."
"Sleep with me-" He pulled Sasuke's arm, but Sasuke hauled it away.
"You're not in your right mind."
The next morning
Itachi pressed his fists against the sides of his head, eyes in slits. He walked towards the kitchen were Sasuke stood drinking coffee.
"Coffee," he spoke like a zombie.
"I hope you are happy," Sasuke spoke. "You look pathetic."
"I have the right to drink Sasuke. I am over twenty one."
The younger brother sighed, pouring the other a cup. Itachi didn't seem to remember what happened last night, and he wasn't going to remind him by acting any different than normal.
"It wasn't responsible. Did you drive?"
"I can't remember..." He moaned as Sasuke punished him by smacking the cup against the table, bang echoing into a hung-over mind. "Do you have to be so loud?"
"You could have died. You could have killed someone."
"I might have not driven... Don't start tormenting me before knowing for sure."
"You shouldn't drink this much again."
"Sorry, but when did you become the parent? Last time I remember, I was the one staying up night to help you with you're homework."
"That was years ago. I was a child."
"You are still a child. Go to your room."
"Are you serious?"
"Go!"
"Bye Itachi. I have school. You're probably too out of it to realiz-"
"Fine, go to school; meet your dumb blond..."
Raising his eyebrows at the comment, Sasuke stomped towards the door trying to make as much noise as possible.
