Summer Rain: ch. 4
Uchiha
Sasuke's eyes widened, "H-how do y-you k-know him?" he shuddered in a shaky yet angelic voice. His heart thumped against his chest to the point of being painful, his lugs felt like they were being squeezed, but he took a shaky breath and returned to his normal uncaring expression. "How do you know Itachi?" he asked again noticing Naruto's nervous fidgeting.
"Um well… I… I live with him… or well he lives with us…" Naruto felt his stomach flip for some reason and pulled at his uniform shirt. "I just noticed you remind me of him a lot and I just…" he stopped for a moment and looked Sasuke in the eyes. Sasuke's eyes, though still glaring daggers, seemed to look a little glassier than normal. 'Tears?' he thought and grabbed his back pack. "I'm not going to ask how you know him because you don't seem like the kind to want to tell about your life but if you want to see him I can take you to him." Sasuke nodded and picked up his backpack and followed Naruto.
The walk seemed longer than usual. Though not more than fifteen minutes away, the trip to the house felt like hours in the tense atmosphere. Sasuke didn't utter a word but felt his heart continue to pound painfully in his chest. Finally they arrived at the house. Though not as big as the six story mansion Sasuke lived in, it was still a large size. The white house looked cleaned and the grass expertly trimmed. The bushed cut to perfection and the stone walkway gleamed in the slowly setting sun.
Naruto looked back at Sasuke and smiled at the boy who continued looking at his feet. Naruto noticed how dirty his uniform was and blinked. 'You would think if you had the money to go to that school you would have the money to wash your clothes… Maybe he is just a genius and doesn't actually have any money.' He thought and shrugged before walking up the front steps and slowly opening the door. Pein sat in his chair as he usually did in the afternoon to watch Jerry Springer. Sasori sat on the couch with Deidara sitting by his feet and Itachi sat on the other side of the couch.
"Hey, Itachi!" Naruto beamed, "I got someone here who knows you." Itachi looked up and his eyes immediately locked on the raven haired boy in the door way. Said boy stood stiff as a board and staring right at the elder in shock.
"S-Sa-suke?" Itachi mumbled and Pein looked up at the name and turned to the boy in the doorway. Itachi stood up slowly and stepped toward the doorway where Sasuke stood. This was all the younger needed to take run to the other and wrap his arms around his neck.
"Itachi!" he cried and buried his face in Itachi's neck. "You're alive! You're ok!" he sobbed and felt the others warm arms wrap around his back. By now Deidara and Sasori had looked up and Kisame was looking from the top of the stairs.
"Who's this un," Deidara asked after noticing a few drops of liquid fall onto the young boys shoulder.
Itachi looked up at Naruto and smiled ever so slightly (so slightly Naruto didn't notice… but Pein did). "This is my baby brother." He said in a whisper, "This is my baby brother Sasuke Uchiha."
Yaaaaays another chapter up… I really appreciate all the comments it really helps motivate me to write more. I think there might be a few grammar errors and I tried to do the best I could but if spell check didn't help then...
Anywho I hoped you liked it and I will start ch. 5 soon! (Oh ya and sorry it sorta short)
