Shisui waits for a confrontation and tries to keep strong.
Missed
He is waiting at the gate when Shisui returns. Some days Shisui wonders if he isn't better off getting rid of this kid. Other days he feels guilty for the thought. The secret riding in his chest constricts his breathing momentarily.
"You're home. Welcome back." Itachi says.
Shisui watches him dispassionately. This is the boy who is surpassing him, systematically destroying him. The boy who trusts him more than anyone else. He'll betray that trust, inevitably. Despite how much Itachi means to him, he's not everything there is.
"Glad to be back." He says. But he passes Itachi without stopping.
END
A/N: what secret? Next time. Or maybe you can guess.
Yeah my Shisui isn't a very nice person, but then neither is Itachi. In a way they deserve each other. I guess now Sasuke deserves to join the circle too.
