Chapter Nine: A Brother as a Rival

It was already dinner time by the time I got home. It was such a tiring day, with all the tuition classes and all the stupid fangirls. Luckily, I was quite a genius, so all those disturbing bitches did not do much of a disturbance with my studies when they crowded all around me, asking me the answer to this and that.

'Geez...girls are annoying after all...'

I got out from my car and slowly walked towards the front door. When I opened the door, I saw an extra pair of shoes. I cocked my brow, wondering who might come to our house that late at night...yeah, to me, eight o'clock is kinda late to have a guest in your house. Still, I shrugged it off and took off my shoes.

"I'm home..."

I was surprised by the sounds of someone running hurriedly down the stairs. It was not usual that someone from my family to do that when someone else got home. Suddenly, I saw something in the colour of the sun, maybe even brighter, running towards me. I was startled when it suddenly pounced onto me, making a cat-like squealing sound.

"Na-nandayou?!"

"Itachi-nii-chan!" the ball of sunshine squealed and sat on top of me. "I miss you very much!!"

"...N-Naruto-kun?" I stared at him in disbelief.

He squealed and hugged me again. "You still remember me! Sugoi!"

When he finally calmed down from his hyperness, he got to his feet and helped me to get up. I blinked a few times, still not believing that he was right there in our house. I pinched my side slightly, and hissed at the pain. 'You're not dreaming, dumbass...' I heard the voice inside my head said. 'Shut up, voice!'

"So, um...what brought you here, Naruto-kun?"

I'm pretty sure that I was blushing slightly when I saw how much he had grown - and how beautiful he had turned out as. I gulped as I examined his lean yet toned and tanned body. His golden hair was sticking out everywhere around his head, but it only added to his cuteness. And with that bright azure eyes and the innocent grin...

"Ehem!"

We both looked at the stairs and saw my father. He had that usual stern look on his face, but I could clearly see that he was very happy inside. Naruto let go of me and giggled as he walked towards my father. To my surprise, he smiled at him and ruffled his golden locks. I only watched Naruto as he went to the dining room.

"...when did he get back?" I asked, slowly approaching my father.

"Just today..." my father replied bluntly. "Get down and have dinner with us after this..."

I stared at him for quite a while, then I nodded before retreating towards my room upstairs. When I got into my room, I closed the door and walked towards my study table, putting my black sling bag on it. Then, I started undressing myself. After taking off my white shirt, I pulled off my black undershirt and started unbuttoning my pants.

"Itachi-nii-chan, Kaa-san...kyaa!!"

I turned around only to see Naruto's back. He covered his eyes with his hands and was chanting; "No, I didn't see anything! I swear!" I could not help but to smirk and walked over to him. Slwoly, I touched his shoulder and neared my face to his ear. Then, I reached for his hands and put them down gradually.

"There's no need to be ashamed of your own brother, right?" I whispered in his ear.

"Y-yeah...maybe you're right..." he stuttered and turned around. "...but you should lock your door next time."

"And you're the one who entered before knocking."

He grinned sheepishly at this, rubbing the back of his head. "Guess it's my fault this time..."

"Hn..." I replied, turning around and walking towards the bathroom. "...what did you call me for anyway?"

"Oh right, Kaa-san told you to be down for dinner quickly."

"Oh...tell her I'll be there in fifteen minutes, ne?" I smiled at him.

He nodded. "Yosh!"

Then, he immediately got out of my room. I let out a small sigh as I went into the bathroom. Then, I stripped myself and hopped into the shower. I turned on the shower and hissed when the cold sensation attacked my awfully pale and somewhat sensitive skin. After a few seconds, the water finally warmed up. I then started to wash myself.

'...what the-?!' A vision of a very delicious, naked Naruto appeared in my head. 'Damn it, Itachi! What are you thinking?!'

I cursed myself and tried to put the naughty vision aside. It was horribly wrong. I could not let my hormones get the better of me. Naruto was my godbrother, and he had Sasuke whom he loved and loved him back. 'Shit! Get out of my head already!' I punched the wall of my shower. A small trail of blood started trickle down my knuckles.

I sighed again as I watched the red liquid entered the hole underneath my feet. Quickly, I washed the wound so that no one would notice it. Then, I washed my self and got out of the bathroom immediately. After I had dried myself, I wore a black tee with some weird grafitti on it and a pair of black pants and went downstairs.

"...Itachi-nii-chan!"

Naruto quickly hugged me again. I just smiled at him. Then, I glanced to my brother who was galring his deathliest glare at me. I gulped, but tried to act like there was nothing going on. However, my chest was burning inside that it hurt so much. I took my seat beside Naruto who was sitting in front of Sasuke. I could still feel the heat from my brother's glare.

"Sasuke-teme!"

"...what is it, dobe?"

I could see Naruto puffed his cheeks. "I had called you three times, darn it! And yet you called me dobe!"

"...gomen..." Sasuke replied when he noticed a small tear on Naruto's eye.

I frowned slightly when the ball of sunshine smiled and shook his head, saying it was nothing to my brother. Indeed, he had never done something like that - apologising I mean, to anyone but Naruto. I did not know why, but my chest was stinging in jealousy when I saw Naruto's genuine smile - and Sasuke's as well.

'Damn it...'
