| Itachi U. |

"Shisui." I call out his name as I walk through the apartment he shares with Kisame.

Shisui rounded the corner and smiled shortly before hugging me. He kissed my cheek and rubbed my shoulders comfortingly. But now wasn't the time. I felt like a monster.

I was about to break his heart. My gaze met his and his smiles never waivered eventhough I showed no emotion.

"We have to talk." I tell him. My voice stern although I was scared as hell. I didn't know what to expect. He's gonna hate me, and I honestly can't bare that. But I have to do this; I-I have to.

"Of course we do." He says. He looks over at Kisame who sat on the couch. He took the hint and immediately got up and walked out the room. Shisui folded his arms across his chest. "What's been going on with you?"

I looked away. I opened my mouth but nothing seemed to have come out. Shisui stepped closer to me and placed a hand on my arm. I shut my eyes and closed my mouth, chewing on my bottom lip. God, how was I gonna say this?

"I-I-"

"You want to end this, don't you?" He smiles at me and my heart shattered even more. I felt horrible. How can he smile at me when he knows I'm leaving him for someone else?

"I was waiting for you to tell me." He says after a sigh. He leans back onto the arm of the couch before smirking at me. "I'm not as dumb as I act Itachi, you for one should know that."

I looked down again slowly nodding my head. "Y-Yes I-I know."

"No, I'm not mad." He says. "Instead of wasting time trying to let me down easy, you should be at her hotel room; becoming one with her."

"How can you be so happy about this?" I look at him.

"When you love and care so deeply for someone, you want to see them happy; even if it isn't with you." He says. "Some people don't understand that. Love is selfless. You'd do anything for the person you love regardless if it's gonna hurt you or not. I know you two have chemistry. I saw it the moment I met the two of you. I knew what I was getting myself into but," He pauses to sigh. "I did it anyway. I'm not gonna say it was a mistake or a regret of any sort." He takes my hand in his and pulls me to him, swaying our hands from side to side. "Thank you for allowing me to fall in love."

"But, I'm also the very first person to break your heart." I tell him avoiding his gaze. Again, I heart him chuckle.

"Itachi you didnt break my heart." He says. "Stop worrying about me and go get your girl before you end up looking like an even bigger fool."

I hugged him. I hugged him so tightly. I couldn't stop myself. I didn't deserve someone as understanding as Shisui. Maybe my decision was a good thing.

"No matter what," He whispers. "I will always be your friend before anything."

"Thank you." I whisper back. "Thank you so much."


| Caleigh |

The knock on my hotel door startled me out of my thoughts. How foolish of me to be thinking about Itachi.

I shouldn't have left him like that. I should've answered him. But then again, to tell him that I love him would be the selfish thing to do, especially if he's with Shisui. Nothing would become of that at all. I couldn't be with him. So why would I tell him right? So stupid..

The knocking continued and I was becoming irritated at how they just banged on the damn door. No consideration for the other people in the other rooms.

Snatching the door open I was really ready to go off untill I saw Shisui standing right in front of me. I paused. How did he know I was here. He smiled at me.

"Hey." He says softly.

"Hi." I say stepping aside and allowing him entrance. He stepped inside and I closed the door. He quickly turned around to face me.

"What do I owe this visit?" I asked raking my hand through my hair. I stuck my hands into the back pockets of my jeans.

"I know." He says simply. I raised an eyebrow.

"About the fight you and Itachi had." He says again. My heart dropped. "He told me everything."

Instood there stunned. He. Did. What?

"He loves you, ya'know." He says again. "I just wanted to tell you myself that I'm fine with this. Itachi and I came to this conclusion mutually."

No, Cali don't cry. Do. Not. Cr-

"Oh no honey don't cry." Shisui's eyes furrowed as he stepped closer to me and placed his hands on my shoulders. He bent down to look me in the eye and use his hand to wipe my tears. "It's okay. You love him don't you?"

I didn't answer. I couldn't tell him that.

"Ca-leigh." He spoke my name in a sing song manner and I bit my bottom lip.

"It's okay, you can say it." He says softly. "Tell me you love him."

I shut my eyes. I couldn't.

"Stop thinking about my feelings and say it." His voice was more stern.

Slowly opening my eyes, I met Obsidian crystals that rivaled that of Itachi's. My breath became shaky as I opened my mouth to speak.

"Y-Yes." I stammer. "I-I love him."

"Good." He answers. "Because that idiot thinks you hate him and sent me in here to butter you up."

Somehow I found myself laughing through my tears. That sounds like him.

"Look, you two are two beautiful souls that would make something beautiful in life." He says again. "I'm so glad I met the two of you and I really hope we can continue to be the friends that we were."

"But, you love him too, don't you?"

Shisui chuckles. "The Uchiha charm isnt all that intoxicating when you yourself are a male as well. I'll get over it. I just want the two of you happy over anything." He smiles.

This man is amazing.

He then turned me around to face the door and placed his hands on my shoulders once more. Next thing I know, his mouth was by my ear.

"Go open the door and be happy." He whispers. "If you wont do it for yourself, do it for me. Because you love me. If you don't open that door, I'll cry."

Again, I found myself laughing. He pushed me towards the door and I stood there.

I have the chance to be with the only person I could ever love right now and I'm questioning if this is really what I want or not.

I'm skeptical about opening this door. What if, what if he changed his mind and went home? What if he's not on the other side and all of this was just some sick joke the both of them decided to play?

I chewed on my lip.

"I feel the tears coming." Shisui says from behind me and I cringe. He's such a drama queen. Okay.

I can do this.

I love him.

And he's on the other side of this door.

I placed my hand on the nob, my other hand sweaty from anxiety. I took in a deep breath and opened the door.

There...

There he was. Leaning against the doorframe. Torn jeans and a loose fitting white v-neck. His hands were stuck into his pocked with his thumbs looped into his belt loops. His head was down as if he was in his own world, or hoping I'd open the door.

He slowly looked up and we locked eyes. A weak smile plastered on his face as he pushed himself off the doorframe. He towered over me as I looked up at him. I couldn't move. I couldn't speak.

Itachi went to open his mouth as well but nothing came out.

"Tachi, I-"

I stopped. He reached out and took my hand, pulling me closer to him and hugging my body. My hands planted firmly against his chest. One arm around my waist and the other holding my head.

I broke. I cried and I cried hard. Itachi began shushing me and telling me to calm down but I couldn't. I felt like a monster. I tried to stay away and that still didnt work. I should be happy knowing that Shisui is completely fine with us being together. But honestly, that's what's hurting me the most.

Itachi continued to hold me. Pulling his head back briefly to kiss my forehead before resting his head on top of mine.

This moment, I've been waiting for it since the moment I came across him. He pulled back once more to look me in the eye.

"I love you Cal." He says and my heart damn near jumped out of my chest. He smiled at me. God, I love that smile so much.

"I-I-" I took in a deep breath. "I love you too, Tachi."

"My work here is done." Shisui spoke as he hugged the both of us. "I'll see the two of you later, you need your alone time." He stepped around us, Itachi moving us into the room and Shisui closing the door. Itachi pressed his back against the hotel door, still holding onto me.

"You love me?" He asked searching my face for any indication that I could be lying. I nodded.

"I love you so much Itachi it scares me." I reply as if my oxygen is being cut short. He smiles again.

"Good, because now you're stuck with me."

"It's only called being stuck if I'm unwilling to accept you." I smirk at him and he grabbed my face in his hands and used his thumbs to wipe the last of my tears. "I just hope you're ready to be annoyed all the time."

"Oh, baby please annoy me to death." He placed a peck on my lips before placing another one.

Then another.

And another.

Just as I thought he would give another taunting kiss, he placed his lips on mine; and I didn't hesitate to wrap myself around him. Picking me up, Itachi pressed me into the wall, wrapping my legs around him. His kiss deepened and our breathing became hitched.

This, this is what we waited for for so long. This moment...to call eachother...ours.















Anybody upset? Lmao 😂✊🏾 ItaCal FTW !
