DON'T WORRY WITH MEyou wandered the borders of the forest holding your basket. your second shadow followed from tree branches. it was much later at night. you would've been at home by now according to itachi.
speaking of home, what would your room look like? maybe he would visit it soon.
he sensed a familiar presence. it irritated him. he was alone with you and he's interrupting. he's not supposed to be here.
he'd kill him.
you jumped backwards. the basket flew out of your hands hitting the tree. it disappeared in the darkness between trees. you clenched the fabric over your racing heart.
itachi waited, it was a painful minute before the other man revealed himself. he couldn't jump down to rescue you like he's wanted to. he had to be patient.
"it's quite late dontcha think, y/n?"
"what do you want from me?" you tried sounding confident. it came out like a whisper.
"you're so scared, hm."
itachi gripped the tree branch between his feet. his fingers dug into the bark.
you swept your foot back against the grass. "what do you want?"
the gap between you shrunk. the man stood only a foot in front of you. he reached behind him, smirking to himself.
itachi fell to your side. his dark hair fell over his matching expression. "deidara, what business do you have here?" he growled. his sharingan glared at the other member.
"itachi uchiha," deidara hissed. his hand fell back to his side.
"i'll ask again, what business do you have here?"
he gestured you behind him and you followed his hand.
"what is she itachi? your girlfriend, hm?"
"leave now. i won't tell you again," he ordered.
deidara humphed. he turned away but side eyed itachi. "just this once."
itachi froze up once he left. you were all alone with him again, but this time you knew he was there. you were inches apart. he didn't want you to see him but he would never let anyone lay a hand on you. he deactivated his sharingan.
you were wiping tears with the palm of your hand when he turned around.
you were adorable, crying, but now you were safe and itachi was the one to ensure that. he rescued you. you would be indebted to him now.
no. he saved you because he had to. deidara shouldn't have tried to hurt you. he shouldn't expect payment for doing what he needed to.
"your basket." he handed you the lost basket without even moving.
"th...ank you,," you sniffled as you took the basket from his hand. you reached into it and pulled out your treat.
"it was no problem. i'll go now."
"please, take this if you really have to go," you said, holding the dango stick out to him.
he extended his hand. his index and thumb pinched the wooden stick. he admired what details he could see.
"i...appreciate it."
"it's the only thing i had on hand right now," you sniffled but still smiled. "my name's y/n, so if you need anything else my family owns a shop in the village."
"thank you. are you comfortable enough to walk home alone? he didn't harm you in any way, did he?" of course he didn't. he wouldn't have let him.
"i'm not hurt, just a little scared but you said you had to go."
"i'll walk you home."
"i thought you had somewhere to be. my house is just in the village so i'll be fine going alone."
"nonsense," he smiled. "lead the way."
not that you had to.
a/n: idk where i got this idea from but i thought of it and had nothing else
