I shouldn't have gone
Now I don't know what to do.
Was it really the truth?
Or was it another lie from an unclear mind? The entire deal was so surreal and civil, maybe I dreamt it.
If it's the truth...
I'm so pissed off right now.
Sasuke: *climbs thru Itachi's ward window in the middle of the night*
Itachi: *glances over, his vision kinda iffy due to morphine*
... What a surprise.
Sasuke: .......... what the hell are you doing awake
Itachi: This stuff puts you in and out... like right now, you look like a blob... kinda... with a face.... kinda
Sasuke: ...... You're really stoned.
Sasuke: Go to sleep
Itachi: Not if you are here... why are you here... didn't think you cared....
Sasuke: ..... *in a super soft voice no one can hear* You told me to you dumbass
Itachi: Mmmm... so I guess you value your ass or somethin'
Sasuke: *scowl* You'd better shut that trap if you value yours
Itachi: *glares* You forget who you are dealing with... you blob of a brother... I might be bound to this bed, but I am not on life support.
Sasuke: *glares back* I'm not as useless as you think... a.ni.ki.
Itachi: who said you were useless?
Sasuke: *eye twitch* I'm not the little kid you could bully around anymore. So don't threaten me.
Itachi: *looks away* You started it...
Sasuke: .... I came to see you alive you are, not to pick a fight. *dumps a small bunch of flowers on the
table*
Itachi: From you? I'm touched... *closes eyes*
Sasuke: *turns red* It's common courtesy. I don't care if you're touched. *turns to the door and opens it
quietly* Goodbye.
Itachi: So soon?
Sasuke: Well I came to see you didn't I?
Itachi: Yes... doesn't mean you have to run away. I got shot... I dont have a disease... *opens eyes and narrows them*
Sasuke: *turns back and looks at Itachi* For years we've been ignoring each other and suddenly you want me around? *incredulous look*
Itachi: Getting shot tends to change one's outlook on life... sit down.
Sasuke: *cautiously takes a seat*
Itachi: So... *eyes the flowers* people keep giving me flowers, but I dont get to see them long. The nurse normally takes them somewhere... to where... I dont know. But yeah, so... *leans back more into the bed* did that blonde kid friend of yours convince you to come in here or was it your own choice?
Sasuke: ....You don't have to know that.
Itachi: Well I asked...
Sasuke: ... I'm not telling.
Itachi: Why not?
Sasuke: You'll make fun of me no matter which answer i give
Itachi: Not neccessarily
Sasuke: ............................................................
Sasuke: Icameonmyownaccord
Itachi: *nods* Considerate... I appreciate it.
Sasuke: ........ You had better.
Itachi: Better what?
Sasuke: ...appreciate it
Itachi: Oh... I thought you meant I had better appreciation of things....... for now I do....
Sasuke: ..... That's nice to know *a little curious8
Itachi: Mhmm... like for instance... I shouldn't take things for granted. Alot of things lead up to me
being here... alot of bad things. Granted, I won't become a saint or anything, but basically... I am not
going to involve myself further in things that don't concern me.
Sasuke: .... and? *raises an eyebrow*
Itachi: And what? *mimics his brother in raising an eyebrow*
Sasuke: .... the things that...concern you?
Itachi: Are you asking me what concerns me?
Sasuke: what will you do with the things that concern you *ground out*
Itachi: Take care of it... what else?
Sasuke: ........... *wants to ask something but swallows it back*
Itachi: *blinks a few times...* Talk...
Sasuke: What?
Itachi: You have something on your mind. Im drugged, not blind.
Sasuke: .... *pauses*
Sasuke: I...
Sasuke: Tell me the truth
Itachi: hmm?
Sasuke: About our parents.
Sasuke: Why you were there... with the blood... and the bodies...
Itachi: *narrows eyes in thought* You still think it's my fault.
Sasuke: *flares* You didn't deny it.
Itachi: *glares at* What was I supposed to do? Shock sort of does this thing called hesitation where you
don't know what to do.
Sasuke: ..It's been 6 years. You didn't deny it. *quiet voice*
Itachi: You haven't neccessarily been open to talking about it yourself.
Sasuke: *narrows eyes* Am I supposed to be open about talk of whether my only brother mudered his parents?
*scowl*
Itachi: Dont you think I would have been convicted of murder then and be in some sort of prison or
detention center?
Sasuke: The law isn't always fair. I just want the plain simple truth. *eyes soften* ... If you can't even give me that...then..you...
Itachi: No... Sasuke, I didn't. It's called being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It shouldn't have taken this......... long to tell you......... but I have had my own personal demons haunting me on the issue.
Sasuke: ... *stares at floor quietly, abit stunned*
Itachi: Shocking...
Itachi: *stares at the ceiling*
Sasuke: *turns towards the door, opening it* .... And you took so long, leaving me to build up the hate and the bitterness. You took so long to tell me that all I've been feeling was uncalled for. Thanks, aniki.
Sasuke: *shuts door and leaves, footsteps echoing through the hall*
Itachi: Welcome.... *sighs*
