SasuSaku: Worth The Risk

Chapter 17

Extreme content warning for this chapter! Proceed with caution!

ALSO: I've gotten some feedback both here and on other fanfiction platforms that Naruto seems like too nice a person to do something so awful, but that's why I chose him as the villain! The character is supposed to seem super good-natured to everyone who doesn't know the truth, which is why Sakura wasn't able to convince any of her friends in Konoha.

This is also just a fanfiction.

The real Naruto would never do something like this, of course.

Thanks again for reading, y'all!

"Whoa, Sasuke, calm down! What happened?" Itachi lifted both hands in a calming manner as his little brother paced back and forth, red in the face, cursing unintelligibly, and overwhelmingly pissed off.

"I swear to fuckin' god, I'm gonna kill them both."

This morning, Sasuke uncharacteristically wanted to dote on Sakura, to kiss her, hold her, and smother her with gifts just because he could. Now, he wished she was in front of him so he could wrap his hands around her neck and- 'Don't lie to your damn self, you sad sack of shit. If she was here, you wouldn't lay a finger on her.'

The thought only made the younger Uchiha brother angrier.

"Tell me what happened, or I won't be able to help," the elder one said, an expert at dealing with his sibling's violent temper.

Sasuke stopped pacing and faced him, nearly shouting, "She played me. That's what happened. Sakura fucking- She-!" He groaned before returning to the therapeutic act of walking back and forth in the large bedroom. Itachi asked, "What did Sakura do? And where is she? Doesn't she usually come home with you?"

~One Hour Ago~

"My name's Naruto. What's yours?"

Sasuke's red-tinted gaze locked onto the blonde-haired, blue-eyed dickhead Sakura was cowering behind, "If you want to live to see tomorrow, shut your fuckin' mouth."

The tan-skinned man, apparently named Naruto, was about the same height and only slightly less muscular. He grinned sheepishly as though he hadn't grasped how serious the Uchiha man was about that threat, "Well, I can't just let you talk to my girlfriend like that, can I? I'm not that type of guy."

'Did he just say girlfriend?' Sasuke's dark eyes turned onto Sakura again, who refused to meet his gaze and continued staring at the ground with a pale face and trembling limbs.

"You're her ex," he said, more of a statement than a question.

Naruto's grin faltered slightly before returning in full, "Not anymore. We're back together, right?" Sakura subtly nodded but refused to do anything else.

"So, are you gonna back off? I don't want to fight you, but I will," his blue eyes were warm and cheerful, as was his voice, "I'm a lot stronger than I look."

Sasuke's hand slid into his pocket, wrapping around his knife, "I'm not going to fight you, asshole. I'm gonna kill you."

"Please, stop. Both of you," Sakura suddenly said, her voice softer than usual.

~Back To The Present~

"-and my dumb ass actually let them leave."

Itachi's eyes were narrowed, unfocused, and directed at the ground as he thought aloud, "It doesn't make any sense. Sakura said she doesn't have anyone."
