Sasuke's POV

I know what's coming. I KNOW I'm going to get punched in the face, but I didn't care. I deserved it. I broke his best friend's heart. Now that I think about it, he is actually a really good friend for doing this to me.

Out of the corner of my eye, I see a smirk on his face, and his fist up, ready to connect with my face. I closed my eyes and held my breath. . . waiting. But it never came. . .

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

My eyes snapped open, and my heart began pounding. My head was still drooped down, but I felt paralyzed all over my body. It's that voice. That deep masculine voice. He's here. . . How? Why?

"Let him go." His voice got deeper.

I felt myself slide down the wall slowly, until I was on the ground. I sensed Kiba walking away from me, and I felt relieved, but also angry. He should've punched me earlier.

"I'm not finished with you yet. You broke my best friend's heart, and you're going to have to face the conequences." I heard Kiba say, and the door was left open when he left.

I looked up, and the almost falling sun shone through the door, and onto my eyes. I was blinded by the light, until a tall and bulky figure placed itself in front of the light, giving me a full image. It was him. . .

"Foolish little brother." He snickered, "Picking fights with teenage boys I see."

I glared at him. How dare he say that to me. I haven't seen him since he was old enough to leave for business, but that was years ago. Yes, he created his own software company in the states. New York to be specific. Uchiha Corps, is the name of the company. I've never been interested in working there, due to the fact that it's a clone of the original. I don't even care if my last name is in the company's title.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I say lowly.

"Tch. Get up. We have a lot to talk about."

The tea I poured fell into the white tea cups, of course leaving a sound. Once I looked up from pouring the tea, I looked at Itachi, and glared at him.

"For starters," I began, "Did you know our parents died?"

He chuckled sadly, "Of course. If the media knew, than so did I."

"You should've came here when that happened." My voice rises, "I had to go to our Aunt's house!"

"Well, I'm here now." Itachi said with a straight face.

"Why ARE you here, anyway?"

"Your graduation of course. You do know the graduation is in a week from Monday, right?"

"Yes. . ." I looked down, thinking of Sakura.

"Why so upset. . . And I noticed that boy mentioned you breaking his best friend's heart. I'm quite intrigued now." He smirked.

I look to the side, avoiding eye contact. My palms started getting sweaty. Why does she have that affect on me?!

"It's a girl, isn't it?"

"Leave it be, Itachi." I demand coldly.

"At least tell me her name."

I know he won't leaving me alone, no matter how many times he begs. I have no choice. I look up at him.

"Her name is Sakura Haruno."

Itachi's eyes widened, and he put his tea cup down, without taking his eyes off me.

"Haruno. . .?" He whispered.

"Itachi, what do you know about Sakura?" I squint at him.

"I know a lot about her," He smirked, "She's quite beautiful. You have a wonderful taste in women."

I glare at him, "She's not a toy, Itachi. Now tell me what you know about her."

"All I know is that her Father's death changed her. Her grades dropped, her major changed from doctor to web designer, and I heard she had thoughts. . ."

"What thoughts?"

"Thoughts of doing the same thing her Father did."

Why did that statement hurt my heart so much?

"Sasuke, did you date this girl?" Itachi asked.

I nod my head, missing her cherry blossom scent. Stop thinking like that, Sasuke! You don't love her!

"Do you. . . Love her?"

I stood straight up and yelled, "Of course not! She's just a girl!"

Itachi smiled at me, but the kind of smile that said you-don't-fool-me, "I can already tell. . ."

"What?" I ask, breathing heavily, with my heart pounding at the thought of her.

"You broke this girl's heart. . . Badly, yet you are in love with her."

"I don't love her, okay!" I started to sweat, images of her smile popped in my mind, and I tried to blink them away, but they wouldn't go.

I trampled into a counter, and started panting.

"Sasuke." Itachi said.

"J-Just go away!" I yelled, closing my eyes, and putting my hand up to stop him.

"Sasuke." He said again.

"Please, l-leave me alone!" My hands balled into fists.

"Sasuke." His hands landed on my shoulders, and he shook me a bit, "Stop being so naive." He said seriously.

"Do you realize you are freaking out because of her? I don't know what happened between you two, but you are thinking about her. . . I can see it, Sasuke. You love her."

"I haven't loved anyone since Mom and Dad died!" I yelled, feeling vulnerable.

"Stop!" He shouted, gripping my shoulders tighter, "It's okay to love someone. It's okay, Sasuke. You love her. It may be hard to accept, but you do. I was in your position at one time, and no girl I ever brought home made me feel the way she made me. Just please, don't make the same mistake I did. I convinced myself I hated her, and now I regret it. I should've gone after her, but I couldn't. Please, just trust me. . ." Itachi said, in a begging tone.

I nodded, "I love her. . ." I bit my bottom lip, "I miss her."

Itachi embraced me, like a loving brother would.

Too bad I love her, because I can't get her back.
