Love Me Dead
Crying Killer Series
Chapter 6
"Devil's Angel"
I woke up feeling my hand being gripped slightly. The warm palm seemed to warm my freezing cold body up. I opened my eyes slowly to hear a beeping sound send pulses of annoyance through my ears. The smell alerted me so much that when I got up I almost broke the heart monitor. I looked to my side and could hear my heart rapidly beating almost flat lining the monitor…
"Sasuke are you awake?"
I looked over to my side to see the spiky haired devil holding my hand. I looked at the make-shift monitor Kakazu had made. The whole gang seemed worried and Madara seemed a bit distressed. I blinked a bit and started coughing till I was fully awake.
My love smiled at me kindly and Kakazu rushed over. "Maybe you should have learned to drive before you went to jail…" He gave a laugh and pushed a strand of hair out of my face. Madara had a bit of a split-personality distorter. He was either brutal or obsessive. Right now he was showing how much he cared. Well how much he wanted me alive…
I found my arm in a make-shift cast that held together the bone which had punctured my skin making my skin turn a purple color. My chest with only a few small cuts showed the marks where the glass from the windshield had broken my skin. I felt my back ache and ended up looking at a huge towel stained with my blood till there was no white left other than a few dots. Another was placed under my back by Kakazu and he gave a small smile as I cringed in pain. I hope that was out of pity and not out of amusement.
"Madara? What the fuck?" He bent down giving me a peck on my forehead and I thanked Kami for Madara's kindness today. I looked over to a TV that Deidara stole and he got it working with another make-shift antenna. I looked at the news and saw the car that I had been and my eyes widened at the damage. Did I really do that? Police cars were there and investigators were being zoomed in on by the cameras. I looked closely as the nerd. Good choice Itachi… Good choice… He did what you said and was loyal. Better than Naruto I will tell you that…
I tried to get up but only succeed in sending my body into a nerve fit. My body didn't seem like I controlled it. My nerves freaked out and I just fell back as Kakazu stuck me with a needle which made my body become numb. I looked at Madara feeling sweat on my neck.
"Why can't I move…?"
He patted my head with his always obsessive smile. "You had a piece of shrapnel go into your spine. Kakazu removed it but it killed some nerves. You should feel better when we leave tomorrow. If not I will carry you to the boat…" I just nodded and looked back over to the TV looking at Itachi's tired face which the camera's decided to zoom in on. Well, he was the head investigator to my case, and my brother, of course they have to point him out…
I gave Juugo a look and he immediately complied. We have been doing this for a while and just a look controlled them all… Juugo walked over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of wine out and poured a glass for me in a mug. He walked back over to me. He put it to my mouth so I could take a sip and I took a gulp hungrily. He chuckled and put it down next to me. I never had a thing for alcohol till Madara introduced me to zinfandel red wine. It suited my taste and it gave me quite a reaction since I figured out long ago that I COULD NOT hold my liquor… I kept my eyes on the TV for a while till I passed out with the help of Hidan stroking my hair. We got along since we both loved brutality…
~~~~~~ITACHI POV~~~~~~~~
I stared at the crash with wide eyes. It was a good thing that was a cop car and more rigid that most civilian cars or Madara might have not had a choice of taking Sasuke away if he wanted him to live. I looked to my right and latterly glomped onto Shikamaru in happiness. He freaked out trying to ply off my iron grip.
"Thank you so much… You probably saved his life… I was worried that the police might have used the PIT maneuver. [Position Immobilization Technique used by hitting the bumper of the car at a angle so that the car spins out of the road and away from any other cars or dangerous intersections, even for the criminals own safety if headed towards a hazardous place but the civilians play a big part in why they use it. Banned in some places.] That might have ended badly for someone who doesn't know how to recover from a hit which might have flipped the car anyways but on a harder surface instead of grass which we were grateful for…" He rolled his eyes and kicked me off.
"Ya, ya, ya, I don't need your slobber."
I ran back over to my car and turned on the GPS, he was in an old abandoned factory… Just before I was about set off towards Sasuke I heard my organizer go off.
'Suit fitting for wedding. 15 minutes…'
I forgot about my own wedding… Shit… I just looked at his position and decided that he would be there later on. I can't let Kisame down… I already let one person I love down… I don't need to let another person down…
I turned around and headed to the fitting store….
~~~~SPACER~~~~~~
"You look adorable!" I turned a bit red as Kisame and Konan started to squel. Konan took one of the pins from her mouth and tailored it so it was a bit tighter on my hips as my pants started to fall off.
"Where the hell did you get this design from? DAMN ITACHI!" Konan yelled.
"Just came to my mind…" I glance over at the piece of paper I got from one of Sasuke's drawing books. Well he had two talents. Drawing and writing. When he got bored he would draw different outfits. He always said that this was a outfit he would like to see someone wear on their wedding day. I decided that it would be almost a gift for him…
While Konan took Kisame to another room to get dressed I just looked out the window thinking of the clue. 'Don't let yourself become so angry that you stop loving, because one day, you'll wake up from that anger, and the person you love will be gone.'
I thought of all the locations that Sasuke and I went to but nothing rang a bell. I just thought of that fateful day when our eyes met before he was taken to jail… When he was at court… Throughout the whole day I had never felt more exhausted and filled with hate… I hated him that day. I truly hated him… But now everything has changed, as soon as I get over him I start feeling like I want to be his brother again. I detested that feeling I had for him before. I still think that it was absurd. I gave into a taboo. I never want to lose control of my body like that ever again…
I heard Kisame run out before I had the chance to cover my eyes. You weren't supposed to see the bride in their outfit before the wedding day. It was bad luck.
"Like it Itachi?" I glanced at the blue and white suit and just nodded.
"Kisame, you just went against the rules of marriage…" I chuckled as he raised an eyebrow.
"I was not supposed to see you in that. It's horrible luck… For our marriage." He waved it off and ran off with Konan who was giggling her ass off.
I stood up and walked into a dressing room taking off the outfit careful not to pull out any of the sewing needles. I hung the suit up and changed back into my previous outfit. I pulled the picture out of my pocket and bit my lip when I saw what looked like to be a different out fit when you folded the piece of paper right... Though I could not tell since it looked like somebody's arm. I opened the paper comparing the outfit to Sasuke's drawing and broke out into a big grin. It was perfect.
I walked out of the dressing room and Konan was already picking everything up. The wedding day… It was tomorrow… My dream wedding day seemed to be as perfect as the suit I was going to wear… Though there was a feeling that could only be described as 'Broken' just shattered… It didn't feel right.
I shook the doubt from my mind and picked up my stuff. "Come home with me please. You didn't even come home last night…"
I just sighed and walked to my car and agreed that I would go home with him. Maybe tonight I can just hug my bride and just have a peaceful night. Sasuke can wait. He is going to be there for a while. He is not going anywhere…
I drove home in silence in my own car following behind Kisame's Blue Ford Escape. The darkness just seemed to be filling each sky earlier and earlier. It bugged me to no end. I felt like every word hanged on each second. Time just passed me by just as it slowed me down. My life speeded up and slowed down at the same time. I gripped the steering wheel angrily; my life had become an oxymoron. Nothings right, and nothings wrong. Just like a void. Everything was numb. Sasuke's eyes had taken me in on a leash. He dragged me into the emptiness and tied me down. He won't leave my mind… He haunts me so that every second takes advantage of me… Making one day feel like one hour… Made each day fill with just bland seconds… Time had ceased to exist… And so had my own life…
I pulled into my driveway and parked the car. I jumped out of my car and ran to the door opening it for Kisame. He took my hand and smiled as we lay down on the couch next to each other. He nuzzled up to me. I just lay stiff. I didn't feel all there as he fell asleep in my arms. I laid back and fell asleep tuning my watch to make sure we wouldn't miss our wedding…
I was wrong… Everything's wrong and nothing's right…
And I knew it…
~~~Wedding Day…~~~~~~
Konan had picked Kisame up to bring him to the church and Shikamaru went with me. We were silent; as he drove concern built up and became evident on his façade. He put his hand on mine with a frown.
"Getting cold feet?" I shook my head and he shook my hand tighter.
"Don't worry about it Itachi… I know what your thinking about. Sasuke's fine…" He turned on his GPS to show me that Sasuke had not moved. I let a smile grace my features and Shikamaru smacked me on the back of the head playfully.
I jabbed him in the side and he did a motion to symbolize a ball and chain. Who knows… That might be how our union coming out to be… A ball and chain marriage… Wonderful… Just Wonderful…
The clue went through my head at least 6 times before we arrived at the church. He pushed me in and we both ran to my dressing room. The room filled with fabric and white roses screamed the word 'Ghetto' through my ears… Yep this was a non-denominational church… [I go to one I am just kidding around. Hahaha]
I got undressed and changed into my suit and had Shikamaru fix my tie so the outfit would be without flaw. I gave both the wedding rings to Shikamaru. He walked out running to the ring bearer. Looking at myself in the mirror I made a gun out of my fingers and pretended to shoot myself in the head. I laughed at the action and just walked out of the room.
A stomping sound of everyone running around in the main room of the church filled the air. I pushed open the doors and every one of Kisame's friends looked at me with a wink and my friend's just made sounds of death of an abusive wedding.
I stood next to the priest and he gave a pitiful smirk. Standing up straight I glanced at the door and waited for everything to start. I could not care less when it started. I just want to get back get the honeymoon over with and find Sasuke…
Wow, I was such a good groom…
I heard everything go silent and Kisame walked in with Konan. He treaded softly over to me with a wink. He walked up a couple steps and I reached for his hand. He gripped my hand and we both stood before the bored priest.
'Don't let yourself become so angry that you stop loving, because one day, you'll wake up from that anger, and the person you love will be gone.', the clue almost blocked the priests words and repeated with its own control. I closed my eyes and focused on each of the words.
"We all come together today to see these two children be locked together in holy matrimony…"
"Last question… Sasuke… Do you really even love me…?"
I saw him shake a bit with hurt in his eyes… I didn't know why…
"I'm sorry Itachi… But I don't…"
I felt more tears stream down my face as my heart shattered to pieces… My whole body felt numb and my stomach felt like I was going to be sick. My head ached and I almost felt dizzy… My whole world had exploded… My soul and being was stolen… My mouth was dry and my throat was sore… Life as I new it just fell apart… I had to look away from him as I felt like choking… I felt like I was the one who should have put the gun to my head… I honestly didn't want to live anymore… I gave everything to Sasuke… My trust, my vows, my life, and my body, I gave it all to him… Now… I'm nothing…
"Itachi… Leave… Go home and get fucked and leave me… I can't have you… And you can't have me…"
I could not stand his words and picked up my coat and left without a word… Everything is gone… Everything… Even our connection as brothers…
I was so angry…
"We will have a recess to figure out Uchiha Sasuke's sentence. Court adjourns." He then hit the mallet shaking his hand as the bailiff took Sasuke back to his table so he could get his coat that he seemed to have taken off before I got here.
I looked at him once more. I made my decision… I think it is too late for us… I'm sorry Sasuke… But you are on your own… Please forgive me…
I walked over to the door grabbing the handle as I looked back one last time. I met up with his dark black eyes as our eyes met… I guess this is the last time you will see me… Sasuke-kun…
I opened the door and left Uchiha Sasuke there. I didn't care what his sentence was… I all ready made my decision… And I most likely will hear it on the news…
I took off without a thought…
I blinked as I finally realized it… I looked over to Kisame and I felt everything fall into place. I shook my head and spoke the words that were on my mind.
"He loves me… He always had… He made me fuming with anger… He made me so angry that I left him… But when I finally realized that he still mattered to me, he left… He was gone… I am so stupid!" The priest and Kisame looked shocked and confused. I looked over to the smiling Shikamaru and he pulled his keys out of his pocket and threw them to me. I caught them swiftly and gave Kisame a kiss on the cheek.
"I'm sorry Kisame… I hope we can still be friends…" I ran out of there in a blink of an eye. I bolted to Shikamaru's car and stuck his gun that he left in the compartment on the side of his door into my pocket. The GPS was already set for Sasuke… That bastard knew I would figure it out…
I drove off flying past cars toward the old factory. I felt my jaw drop when the dot started to move. Sasuke was moving… He was moving towards the peer! I took a short cut down the back roads and used all knowledge of Konoha I had stored in my mind. I remembered Juugo the Giant… He said he always had a crush on a different killer named Suigetsu… I never really paid attention to Suigetsu's killer name though. He used to work on a boat there. A small narrow boat that could use wind and gas to let it travel as far as he wanted it to. He was known for living a year on that boat without touching land once… They had enough supplies for a long trip I will tell you that…
I grinded the tires against rough terrain and flew over speed bumps. I slid the car into neutral and jumped out quickly and ran over to the peer. A boat that was leaving caught my eye… A couple hood figures sat on two boats one I recognized as Suigetsu's old boat and a new one were heading out. I saw a very tall hooded figure holding the other in his arms lovingly. I snapped right there…
I ran towards Sasuke…
Nothing would stop me…
Not even the Devil himself…
For I will get him…
I will love the Devil's Angel…
