Chapter 3
Third Person Pov
Sasuke's eyes fluttered open as his alarm woke him, the black electronic buzzed rapidly. It buzzed two more times before snapping off itself, it was 5 a.m, the regular time he would wake up at. He yawned with a stretch, pulling a shirt out of his bed cabinet and sliding out of his warm bed.
Trudging to his restroom, he scratched his head, pulling his regular clothes to take a short shower. Today seemed particularly strange to Sasuke, even when he had barely woken up. He felt more heat emenating around him, though he had not turned on the heater. It was no matter to him either way, he didn't mind.
He turned the knobs in his shower, turning the heat to its start, gathering his toothbrush and special whitening paste and placing them inside. It didn't take him long to strip and get inside the shower.
Outside the restroom, Ketsueki stirred in his sleep, grunting at the sounds around him. It was getting a little noisy for him but didn't really stop him from drifting back to sleep. He flopped on the bed, stretching his legs out and tangling them in the sheets.
Inside the bathroom, Sasuke was nearly finished with his shower, he didn't necessarily need to take much time in the restroom, he always ended up looking good. He pulled the shower curtain back, he wrapped a towel on his waist and began his daily routine.
Opening the door of his steamy restroom, he stepped back into his bedroom, drying his lustrous black hair. He plopped on his bed and jumped at the feeling of a stiff object. Something on his bed yelped, making Sasuke fly off the bed and stumble backwards.
He scooted away from his bed, scrambling out of his room. He ran into the kitchen, pulling a knife from his dish rack. His legs were shaking and in all honesty, Sasuke was startled by the unknown creature in his bed.
It led him to think about how long it had been there and whether it had been with him all night. His face twisted with horror. How did it even get inside his apartment? He raked his brain, thinking of which door he had opened. He ran to his balcony door, checking the doorknob which was unlocked.
Sasuke ran his fingers through his hair, he was in distress. He couldn't believe he was so careless. His floor creaked behind him, he spun around, he gripped his weapon hard. A figure began to turn the corner and Sasuke didn't hesitate.
He ripped the table cloth off the table and tackled the figure, successfully throwing it on the floor and wrapping the cloth on its head. He sat on the things stomach, it grunted and tried squirming. Sasuke blinded by his own terror, brought down his kitchen knife, going straight through what seemed like a shoulder
Sasuke panted, he didn't hear screams or whimpers but it was groaning and cursing. It pushed Sasuke off, scrambling to couch to separate itself from him. It ripped of the cloth from its head, revealing what was a tall male. His oynx eyes widened as the man panted, yanking the knife out of his shoulder.
"What the fuck, man?" The pale teen grunted, attempting to look at the hole in his shoulder. He began poking at it while Sasuke stood, frozen in place. That was the thing in his bed? The white haired teen dropped the knife on the floor, it clattered on the wood, startling Sasuke. The boy studied Sasuke's distressed face and smirked. "Hey, you look kinda- urgh!"
Sasuke tackled him again, pinning the other teen down. He tightened his grip on his wrist, pulling them over his head. Sasuke had a stern face, he was determined to get answers. The teen chuckled at the boy's anatics, his lips stretched into a sly grin at his rough handling.
"Like to get straight to the point, eh?" He mused, wiggling his eyebrows. At this Sasuke's cheeks colored, he almost jumped back. The older teen chuckled again, the throaty laugh made Sasuke's cheeks color even more, he thought the boy's reaction was kind of cute.
Sasuke straightened himself, pulling his wrist higher up. "Who are you." He demanded, furrowing his eyebrows with irritation. "Why are you in my apartment."
He licked his lips, starting sheepishly. "Well...Uh- Hey whats that?" He said, looking behind Sasuke. Sasuke turned to look behind him, when he did he was pushed on his back and put in the same position as the other boy was. The teen chuckled lowly in his ear, his hot breath nuzzled his neck, it made Sasuke shiver. "I'm No-Surname Ketsueki. I'm just hang out here for while..." He drawled, using one hand to pin his wrist and another to scratch his cheek. "Until the heat dies down, ya know?"
Sasuke blinked stupidly. He was hiding? He studied the teens features, noting the marks crossing his eyes and white unruly hair. It finally dawned on him. "Your No-Surname, Ketsueki! From the bingo book!" Sasuke almost gasped, he was dangerous! One of the most dangerous, in fact!
Ketsueki sighed, letting go of his wrist and standing up from their position. He sat on the couch, running his fingers through his white hair. "Yeah... That's me..." He huffed, slouching on the couch lazily. He was kind of tired at that statement, almost everyone that encountered him had said that. Then afterwards, they would scream and run like little pussies.
He waited for the same reaction, putting his hand to his face. Sasuke got up and began to step back. Ketsueki sighed and shut his eyes, 'Here it comes...' He anticipated the sound off feet scrambling away, yet he heard nothing. He popped open one eyelid looking for the boy. "Hey, you-oof!"
The wind was knocked out of his chest as Sasuke jumped on him again, pinning him down furiously. "Why did you kill them?!" He almost screamed, his eyes were full of rage. "Why did you kill your clan?!" He snarled, pushing his fingernails into his skin.
"Tell me why?!"
Ketsueki was actually shocked by this behavior. He never got that kind of reaction before. It made him kind of draw back his question. When Sasuke got silence as an answer, he growled, shoving his wrist further into the couch. Ketsueki held his breath, this was better than he expected!
"Ha, wow. That's the first." He laughed with out humor. "Okay, I'll tell you..." He said wiggling into the couch. "But first let me get comfortable, if you want to hear." He winked, smiling at him smugly. Sasuke sputtered, jumping off of him and sitting on the other side of the couch. "Aww." Ketsueki whined, stretching onto the couch. "I kinda like that position."
Sasuke hissed at him, throwing a nearby book at him in disgust. How can anybody say something like?! There was no way that guy was gay, at least, he didn't think so. Sasuke's face face twisted with panic, he was probably just playing with him.
Ketsueki tapped his chin, thinking of how to start. "Hm... How about we play a little game instead." The teen suggested with a cheeky grin. At this the Uchiha narrowed his eyes and snarled. "Ah! Lets play 10 questions! This is your first question! I'll go next after, okay?" He leaned forward, stretching his hand to him.
Sasuke grunted, crossing his arms in agreement. Ketsueki cheered, clapping his hands rapidly with a squeal. "Yay! Okay, well first of all... I killed my clan because I wanted to!" He said plainly, crossing his arms. Sasuke growled, not amused by his answer. "That's not a real answer." He hissed, clenching his fists.
"Ah! But au contraire! It is an answer." He shrugged, winking at him. "You never told me to specify!" Sasuke gritted his teeth. "But, its-" Ketsueki wagged his finger at him, tsking at him. "Its my turn..." He giggled, pulling on his shorts.
"Who are you?" He asked in a teasing manner, leaning in to hear his answer. Sasuke clicked his tongue, turning his face away from him. "My name is Sasuke Uchiha." He muttered, getting fed up with his toying and laughing.
"Its my turn now. Tell me the real reason why you destroyed your clan and specify." He demanded, turning back to him attentively. The pale teen chuckled uneasily, rubbing his neck nervously. "Uh- how about you save that question for the last.." He said, clearing his throat. "Cause, its kinda' a long story..."
Sasuke shook his head unwillingly and stern. "No. Its my turn and I say answer the question now." Ketsueki gave Sasuke a mock grimace, holding his chest. "Oh, Sasuke, please..." He pouted, crossing his arms. "It'll be worth it... I promise." He pleaded.
Sasuke's eye twitch, his plea was not only super invalid and stupid but it was also very untrustworthy. This man was specifically known for making deals, creating loopholes to justify his results and then absolutely destroying them afterward.
Sasuke grunted, "You better keep your word." He said, with a solid glare. He cheered, wiggling into the couch. Sasuke sighed, "Second question, why are you inside my house." He demanded, furrowing his eyebrows.
Ketsueki snickered. "That was purely a coincidence." His lips curled into a large grin. "I was running and I just needed a place to crash, which was your lovely little apartment." He cooed, pinching Sasuke's already colored cheeks.
Sasuke slapped his hand away, rubbing his cheek from the pinch. Ketsueki paused for a second, muttering to himself. "To be honest... I don't really think there are coincidences..." He chewed his inner cheek. "No matter, second question, what your favorite food?"
"Rice balls and tomatoes." He huffed. "Who are you running from, specifically?"
"The federal and his taxes." He replied casually, waving his hand nonchalantly. "What's your favorite color?" Sasuke quirked his eyebrow and squinted at his strange response. "Blue and black." He watched him carefully. "How many people did you kill?"
There was a long period of silence before he barked with laughter and slapped his knee. He startled Sasuke and he began to wheeze, he clutched his stomach. "To many to count, darling." He sniffed, wiping the imaginary tear that rolled down his face. "What are some of your hobbies?" Sasuke growled impatiently. "Nothing! Why are you asking me stupid questions!"
Ketsueki gasped clutching his chest dramatically. "These aren't stupid questions! These are valid questions!" He tutted. " I just want to get to know you!" Sasuke scrunched his face with annoyance and leaned away from him. "You know what? Lets just make it 7 questions!" He hissed impatiently.
Ketsueki's eyes widened. "Thats not fair! I still have more questions!" He pouted, tossing his hands in the air. "What the hell are you talking about fair for?!" Sasuke snarled, absolutely tired of his bullshit. "You killed people and you talk about fair?!"
Ketsueki gasped again, sounding genuinely hurt. "How could you, Sasuke?! I thought you love me!"
Now, Sasuke was confused, his face twisted with inpuzzlement and he held his hands up in defense. "What? I-"
He was cut off by low chuckle. "I'm just kidding." He snorted, biting his thumb nail. "Are you always jumping to conclusions?" He asked, amused by Sasuke's slight outbreak. Sasuke sat dumbly, silenced by Ketsueki rhetorically question.
"Do you really want to know that badly?" He mused, leaning on his arm. "I killed them because they needed to be killed." He drone casually. "They weren't good people. They weren't even fair people." He said leaning forward.
"They destroyed other clans. Tormented their own people and annhilated other clans for no reason at all."
"I killed them because I felt the pain those people felt." He shrugged honestly.
Again, Sasuke just sat there. He was shocked, completely overtaken by his reason. Ketsueki sat for a moment, waiting for the younger boy to take in the new information.
Sasuke finally recomposed himself. "So... that's it?" He asked lowly. "That's all?" He said, furrowing his brows. "Yep that's it!" Ketsueki casual remarked. "Hey, Sasuke..." He drawled, sheepishly. "Can I ask you one more question?" He quirked his eyebrow.
He wiggled around, getting a hold of his hand. He played with it and looked at him innocently. "Can I stay with you?" He smiled, unashamed.
Sasuke lost it.
