Break me

Chapter 29

Naruto's POV

What if I didn't meet the Uchihas? What if I were born into an ordinary family? My life would have been different. My parents could live happily.

My life is full of regrets. One time I feel like running off and the other time my heart is burning to seek justice for my dead parents. I'm torn between these two options. Mom and dad, what type of life you would like to see me leading?

My phone starts to ring. Taking it to my ear I hear a familiar voice. "Why did you call me?" I asked. I hear Mikoto's voice from the other side."I heard Kakashi is out of the country for a few days."

I reply to her,"Yes, he has shoots." Mikoto says,"I already know about that. Who gave you permission to live alone?" I frown. What is she even talking about? I ask her,"Do I need permission to live alone? I used to live by myself before Kakashi came."

Mikoto says,"That was before we took you under our custody. Look, I was informed that someone suspicious was seen in front of your building." Before I could say anything she says,"I want you to live with Sasuke until Kakashi comes back."

I yell,"You can't do that to me! I don't want to live there!" Mikoto says not moving from her statement,"I know the best for you Naruto. Do you want me to make you come back here forcefully? I don't want you to make trouble anymore for my husband."

I sigh. She says,"Take your belongings and someone will escort you there." She cuts the call. I don't need anyone to take me to their apartment. We are neighbors basically. I could go there by myself.

Hearing a knock on the door and I go running to the door to see the person who came to receive me. Surprisingly the person is Itachi Uchiha himself. He's wearing a black jacket and his hair is in a man bun. I can't deny the fact that the Uchiha brothers are the most perfect things exist in this world.

I speak,"I talked to your mother." Itachi says,"I know. Hurry up." I roll my eyes and go back to take a small bag. He asks me seeing the bag I took to carry my belongings,"Is this all?" I nod and tell him,"Yes, I'm not going there to live forever."

Itachi is walking in front of me and I'm following with obedience. Is Sasuke in the apartment? Today I didn't go the school after witnessing yesterday's fight. I'm the main topic of their gossip right now and I won't be able to stand them seeing me narrowing their eyes.

He opens the door of their apartment. I ask him,"Is Sasuke here?" He replies after a few seconds,"No. He's gone to school." I ask him,"Where will I be staying?" He keeps standing there not answering my question.

There are only two bedrooms. I don't want to live with either of them. I sigh and tell him,"I'll be sleeping on the couch." He says,"That's even better." Saying that he goes back to his room.

It's been quite a long time since I'm lying on the couch not doing anything. Soon I feel my stomach grumbling. I forgot that I was hungry and didn't eat anything in the morning.

I make my way to the kitchen to see if there is anything in the fridge. Opening the fridge I was welcomed by almost nothing. What do they even eat? With the small amount of ingredients, I tried to cook something edible.

I hear footsteps while I was busy cooking. I feel Itachi's presence behind me. He was peaking over my shoulder and his body is quite close to mine. I ask him even though I shouldn't care about him,"Are you hungry?" Itachi replies after being silent for a few seconds,"A little."

I tell him,"Sit over there, I'll give some to you as well." When did our relationship become like this? He never could stand me and I was always afraid of him. That's been the way we lived all along.

I take the homemade food to the table. Itachi is watching TV back facing me. I  took the another plate to him and I finally I got his attention. He says,"Where is yours?" I tell him pointing to the table,"Over there."

He says coldly,"Take it from there and sit beside me." I tell him stubbornly,"I don't want to." He says glaring at me,"Do as I say while I'm talking nicely." I clicked my tongue being annoyed and ended up following his order. This is the reason, I hate to live with the Uchihas.

We ate silently while Itachi was watching TV as well. I ask him,"Did you finish?" He turns to face me and asks,"Why?" I tell him,"Because I need to clean the dishes." Itachi pushes the plate toward me and I take it to the sink hurriedly.

I was studying by myself in Sasuke's room. I know he probably won't mind if I use this room. Why do I have this sudden confidence when it comes to Sasuke? It's like I can do anything with him.

I see the sound of the door opening. I turn my head to see Sasuke finally coming in. He looks surprised. He asks me,"What are you doing here Naruto?" I guess he didn't know about my arrival.

I reply to him,"You mother told me to live with you until Kakashi comes back." I quickly get up and tell him,"I'm sorry for using your room without your permission." He says immediately raising his voice,"No! Don't go."

I look at him and see his eyes being light up. I sit down after that and give my attention back to my study. I hear him doing his things. He says,"I'm going to shower." I don't say anything as a reply.

After awhile Sasuke comes back. I hear his voice,"Why didn't you call me Naruto?" I reply to him,"Because you were in school." Sasuke frowns.

He asks,"Who told you that?" I tell him,"Itachi."Sasuke says,"But I told him that I was going to run some errands. I didn't go for school." I shrug my shoulders and tell him,"Maybe he forgot."

Sasuke asks,"Where are you going to sleep? Have you decided?" I tell him,"I'm going to sleep on the couch." Sasuke asks,"Why?" I turn my head and look at him. I ask him,"What do you mean by 'why'?" Sasuke says pointing to his bed,"My bed has enough space for both of us. We slept together remember?"

My face starts to heat up. Those memories start to flash in front of my eyes. How can I ever forget about that night? Sasuke notices my face and his lips have a smirk on them. He says,"How do you expect me to behave when you look like that?"

My heart beat is never normal when I'm with him. In this silence, he could hear my heart beating faster easily. I quickly get up from the chair once again and tell him,"I-I'm sleepy, I'm going." I was about to run off but Sasuke says,"Stop."

My legs froze. I hear the sound of him coming closer. Sasuke hugs me from behind. I couldn't do anything but let him have his way as always. I'm aware about the fact at this point that I want him to touch me whenever he's close to me.

Sasuke whispers into my ear,"Naruto, don't you love it when we become one?" I feel my heart skipping a beat. I feel hotter. Sasuke keeps saying,"Can't you see, how much I want you?" I whisper him back even though I don't need to,"This isn't love Sasuke."

Sasuke holds me tighter. He says,"How do you know that this isn't love?" I remain silent. Sasuke says,"I'm ready to fight against the world for you. Everything I'm doing at this point, is just for you. You are the reason I'm living."

I tell him,"Don't talk like that Sasuke."
Sasuke spins me around making me face him. I'm lowering my head avoiding his eyes and trying hard not to show my face. Sasuke says,"Why Naruto? Is it because you feel the same?"

I shake my head. He kisses me pouring all of his feelings into it. It's like my stomach can burst with the butterflies inside it. I couldn't control myself enough to push him away. I'm still drawn to him. I'm still not strong enough to break this connection. I know I'm going to regret it.

After the night routine and the embarrassing make out session with Sasuke I came back to the living room. I slump down on the couch and going to sleep my exhaustion away. My heart is still thumping.

It took some time for me to actually fall asleep. I feel cold all of a sudden and curl myself into a ball. My heavy eyelids starts to fall down. I feel drowsy. Suddenly I hear footsteps once again. I don't have the energy to get up and see the person. The light is turned off as well.

The tall figure starts to come closer to me and it almost closed the gap between us. I feel something soft on my lips. The shadow put a blanket on my body and tucked it down perfectly.

I can feel the presence but I can't see the person. It's like I can't move my body.I was sure that it was Sasuke until I hear a voice. A whisper that says "My Naruto." Is it really Sasuke's voice? Or am I dreaming?
