itachi listened to what word spread around the village. surprisingly, the word about yuri's death had never gotten out. her pitiful life was lonely. only sabuto stopped by once to check on her but received no answer.

he chalked it up to her being angry with him and left.

that was two days ago. no one has come to visit her since.

truly a waste of space she was. no reason to keep her alive he thought to himself. he turned around to look for you. he wished to meet with you again.

he brought he knuckle up to his lips. how could he go about this? you were so distant. how would the village react if he did travel the streets among them. he'd receive odd stares with his clothing. he could just discard them for the time being.

every day you'd watch the stars. maybe today you'd join him.

itachi sat with his knees pressed against his chest. he laid his cloak underneath him.

"oh!"

his head turned to see you carrying your basket. you had just passed the trees into the clearing. you took a step back.

"i'm sorry. i didn't mean to intrude- it's you again," you smiled. you opened your basket and reached in. itachi watched you pull out a plastic carton. you walked over and crouched next to him. "i made some sakura nerikiri, i know it's not spring but i hope it still tastes good."

you held the dessert in front of him. he smiled and took it.

"thank you. join me?" he offered.

you responded by sitting next to him.

"your cooking is delicious y/n, truly." he'd have to marry you to have these kind of treats daily but he kept that part to himself.

your eyes fell over his wrist. what looked to be scars dug deep into his skin. you couldn't help the gasp that slipped from your lips and garnered his attention. you reached over to pull him closer for a better look.

"are you okay?" you looked up at him, worry flooding your eyes and making itachi's heart swell. you rubbed your fingertips on the marks.

"i'm alright, just a run in with some thieves."

"wow you must be super strong."

compliments didn't phase the prodigy himself but from you, they were different. he considered all praise about his strength to be fact because it was. coming from a village of shinobi meant they understood itachi's power. you were blissfully ignorant to that side of society.

he nodded at you. "thank you. the thieves were no trouble."

he was so captivated by your innocence. it was so refreshing to be around you. any thoughts of the ninja world vanished. it was just you and the treats you made him.
