~Anna's POV~

" Stop it Konan. You're going to make my head bleed if you keep brushing too hard."

" Stop complaining. Your hair looks like a bird's nest. I don't even know how Itachi finds you appealing in this state of yours." Konan said back. I sighed.

" That's not a reason to plough my head."

" I got the clips!" Amalie announced entering the bathroom where I was currently being violated.

" You both are treating me like I'm getting married. Hell you even changed my clothes for me."

" Wait, you aren't getting married?" Konan joked.

" What the hell?! Not a chance!"

" So you don't want to marry Itachi?" My face turned complete red at the very words 'marry Itachi'.

" I-I'm not answering that."

" Awwh, so you're saying that you don't want to-"

" Wrong! Its the opposite! Shit!" I hurriedly covered my mouth to not say anything else that I'd be teased with later.

" Oh? So you do? And just when is it going to happen? I wish anytime soon." Amalie started.

" Yeah me too. It would be so much fun." Konan agreed.

" I-"

" If you're done in there then hurry and come for dinner!" Sasuke shouted from the hall and left without an answer.

" You both heard my man's brother, hurry and let me go." I informed boredly.

" You're not allowed to walk." Konan told me.

" What?!"

" Think about it. Can you even walk straight?" Amalie pressed and I sighed, again.

" That's sucks."

The real reason they did my stuff for me was that I was constantly shaking from weakness so I couldn't hold something and that's when Itachi came with this ridiculous idea.

" Besides, you are still on IVs-"

" But Itachi said if I get a solid diet then these needles would be removed......"

" Well that's true too but you'll have to wait till tomorrow when the doctor comes to check on you." Amalie told.

" So I have until tomorrow to eat so much that I won't need these itchers."

" Itchers? Is that even a word?" Konan asked.

" I dunno. They make my skin itch so I'm calling them itchers."

" You should make your own dictionary for odd words." They both laughed.

"Fuck you both."

"Oi, language." I was scolded while my head was being bandaged.

" Humph. Fine. Now I'm hungry. Fetch me something to eat." I ordered.

" Are you really ordering us?"

" Yeah, since I can't move and all."

" Come on Konan. We are done with the 'bride' anyways." Amalie said smirking and left me blushing like hell.

I looked at my reflection and bit my lip. Why am I always getting in such situations?

Since the Uchiha's house was closer to the hospital and since Itachi was too worried about my head, I had been told to stay here. Eric and Max stayed when they wanted to. I was always too tired to look after anybody.

I didn't get a concussion thankfully but I still had some trouble remembering minor events before my accident, like what did I hit my head on to have six bloody stitches?!

I felt the stitched skin under my bandages and frowned. This will leave a nasty scar. But oh well. I was more worried about the needles in my skin. Ugh, how much I hated them.

~

" Are you going to remove the needles, now?" I asked the doctor when he took a look under the bandages.

" No."

" Now?"

" No."

" Now?"

" Let me conduct some tests please."

" Alright." I went quiet for a while. " Now?" Not only did Itachi crack up a little but also the doctor.

" Its my first time treating someone who's actually this energetic with six stitches. Most people can't stop whining about them."

" Well I'm not most people. Besides, these stitches are helping my head close, how am I supposed to whine about something that's helping me?"

" That's quite an interesting way of looking at that."

" Mmmhmm."

" Well, I see you would need to take in a lot nutritions but I'm going to remove the IVs. And about the stitches, they would take a week."

" What's a week when I've endured two months." I mumbled but beamed lightly when I was free of the needles.

" You won't be walking too much or doing anything that would strain you. Don't watch too much TV, don't listen to too many songs and your bath water should be moderate warm for your head." The doctor told me and after giving Itachi a once-over of how to look after stitches again, he left.

" You sure know how to make people like you." Itachi complemented when he came back in my room where I was trying to stand up.

" Aahh- phew. Thanks." I thanked Itachi for catching me before I fell back on the bed.

" Always mention that."

" You're such a sucker for praise."

" I picked that from you."

Oh, so he's in the playing mood. Then two can play this game.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and pressed yourself closer.

" What else did you pick from me?" I asked smirking.

" You really want to know-"

" Itachi-nii, you can kiss sis all you want at night-" Max interrupted and that somehow put me in a foul mood. " Sorry sis but you need to eat something if you want to regain your health."

" He's right. I can pin you to the bed anytime I want but I don't think now would be the best time." Itachi winked at me and I let him go, fuming. He went to his own room telling me to stay put but I never listen.

" Stupid men." I mumbled and marched out to the kitchen.

Midway down the stairs my head started spinning so I leaned by the wall and after a few minutes I started descending again.

What to cook. What to cook. Aha! Some omelette rice would be nice. Hmm.

When I extended my arm to get the knife it was taken before I could even touch it. Following the arm I came face to face with a disapproved Itachi.

" What are you doing? You shouldn't cook in your condition." He said placing the knife back and pushing me to the living room and made me sit on the couch.

" What condition? I feel perfectly fine. Besides its just chopping some vegetables, its no big deal."

" You do surprise at wrong times so I'm not taking chances."

" Meanie."

" Tell me what you want, I will cook."

" Impressive." I smirked. " Fine. Then you're my Misa-chan for rest of the day."

" More like Usui."

" Mi-sa-cha-n."

" Forget it. I'd rather be Sebastian."

" How about just being my Itachi?" I smiled at him.

" I would gladly fulfil this wish." He bent and kissed my forehead then went in the kitchen. " What would you want?"

" Omelette rice! Extra ketchup!!" I yelled back and then switched on the TV.

" Really sis, you don't miss a chance." Max said appearing out of nowhere.

" What are you talking about?" I asked boredly switching the channels.

" Oh nothing." He rolled his eyes.

All the day I had a hard time focusing on anything and I was nauseated and I felt cold as well and it was quite a while before I was able to sleep.

" Huh? Where did my grizzly go?" I looked around my room in confusion as to where the hell my precious bear went.

Oh right! Its in Itachi's room. I will go and get it.

So I made my way to Itachi's room and knocked on the door.

" Do you really need to knock after all this time?" I heard from the other side of the door and then it opened.

" I don't like barging in without permission. That's all." Without a second to spare I was dragged in and the door was closed shut. " Itachi?" I called as I couldn't properly see in the darkness of the room but once my eyes adjusted to it, I made my around to the bed where the bear sat.

" You came for this?" Itachi asked from left side of the bed.

" I remembered I left it in your room and I can't sleep without my grizzly." I answered him, scratching my head.

" And do you remember why it was here in the first place?"

" Um.....no...." I picked up the stuffed animal and hugged it close. " But I know it was something important." I heard Itachi sigh.

" Mind if I tell you?"

" I need all the pieces of my memory I can get so ya, I don't mind." The room was quiet for a while.

" Because you slept with me."

" Okay........hey! What?!" My whole face turned red when the information processed in my mind. " In that sense?! I-"

" Calm down. It wasn't like that." He laughed.

" T-then wh-hat?" I couldn't stop blushing a radiant red.

" You were troubled about something and you couldn't sleep alone, that's why." I breathed a sigh of relief but it turned into a gasp when I hand was grabbed and were laying on the bed with Itachi hovering over me.

" Why are you so relieved?"

" I-it's...I.....It would have been a bother if we slept together and I couldn't remember it-aah!! That wasn't supposed to some out!!" Colour rose to my face again and I averted my eyes from Itachi's face in embarrassment.

" So you're interested?" He asked playfully, closing some distance between our faces. I forbade myself from opening my loud mouth again. " Not going to answer eh? Then-" He started tickling me which had me laughing so hard that it started hurting.

" S-stop! Ahahha-stop! I-It h-hurts-!" But I couldn't stop laughing. My eyes then went to the bear peacefully sitting on Itachi's pillow.

Why is that bear so peaceful?!

So I picked it up and stuffed it in Itachi's face who reacted by letting me go.

" Are you ok with me kissing someone else?" He asked removing the bear from his face. I couldn't answer. It felt like my voice won't let me but my will was stronger than that. A familiar jealousy sparked as I threw the bear aside bringing Itachi's face closer to me and kissing him till we needed to part for breaths. " I think I should get you jealous more often."

" Maybe you should."

" Maybe I will." I smiled widely when Itachi kissed my forehead.

" Well, I got my bear. See ya tomorrow." I took the grizzly and stood up but were forced down on the bed again with strong arms around my waist. " Itachi-"

" You said you can't sleep without your grizzly." I smiled a little. " I'm not letting you go again." I heard as his face nuzzled in your hair.

Again?

Some parts that were missing, when I tried asking about them, either the topic was changed or I never received an answer. Konan and Amalie flatly told me to at least get better first then they will give me my answers. But I was a curious soul sometimes and this was one of those.

~

A few days had passed, and even though I felt fine, well as fine as I could get, Itachi won't let me even near any kitchen object like whenever I tried cooking, he would interfere. Hell, Sasuke had been cooking in my stead. Amidst my thoughts of suspicion and realisation, the bell rang.

I wonder who it is. People rarely visit in holidays.

I shrugged and got up, walking casually to the door, pulling my shawl tighter around me. Twisting the door knob, I opened the door and raised my eyebrow at the man standing in front of me with a lean towards the door frame.

He had black short slightly curly hair with black eyes and seemed like he applied eyeliner but I knew it was his lashes. Taller than me, maybe an inch or two taller than Itachi's height.

" Who are you?" I asked bluntly.

" I can ask you the same question." The playfulness of some sort appeared on his face.

" I am- it doesn't matter. Who do you wanna see?"

" Okay, it doesn't matter, tell your boyfriend his older brother came for a visit." I twisted my face in confusion.

" Older brother? Just wait here." I turned my head and yelled at the top of my lungs. " ITACHI! SOME UGLY GUY WANTS TO SEE YOU AND CLAIMS TO BE YOUR OLDER BROTHER!!" Then I turned back to him." He'll be here in a second."

" Ugly guy? I'm hurt. I didn't know girls in Konoha really cared about looks." He started fake crying.

" I'm just stating my opinion."

" Are you going to let me in?"

" Depends on Itachi-"

" What depends on me?" I looked over my shoulder at Itachi who descended the stairs.

" Whether or not to let this suspicious ugly man in." I replied.

" Ugly? Just who..." He spoke and went to the door when I stepped aside. "SHISUI!"
