Sincerely Devoted (SasuNaru)

Break the love

2:33PM

School was finally over, and I was walking out of the school gates with Kiba. "So.. Assuming you're gonna head over to Sasuke's again?" Kiba questioned.
"Yeah.. He still has a little more of the filming to do.." I answered, without putting much thought into the question.
"Man.. Ever since you met Sasuke, we've been hanging out so little. I mean, don't get me wrong I'm happy for you and all. But.. I kinda miss you, y'know?"

I stopped in my tracks, I turned to Kiba, feeling all sorts of bad and apologetic. I never knew he felt this way.. I never knew he felt left behind. "Woah seriously? I'm so sorry, kiba. I never meant for you to feel this way." I pulled him in for a tight hug, sort of repairing the gap in our bond. The connection was restored. Or at least I felt so. He hugged me as tightly as he could back, with tears rimming his eyes and a huge smile on his face.
"Hell yeah, I really miss ya." He kissed my forehead playfully before our hug ended.

3:26PM

After that short catching up with Kiba, I was very late to meet my boyfriend. Afraid his lunch break would be over anytime soon, I decided to take a short cut to the company.
Of all places I had to go through to take the fastest route to the company, I had to go through this shady looking back alley way. Way to go, Naruto! I'm a genius. It was pretty dim since there were very little lampposts around and it smelled like crap. Literal crap. Like someone just took a dump in this alley.

I was starting to get nervous, or afraid someone would follow me so i hastened my pace and tried to play it off cool while doing it. But inside I'm scared as hell.
I don't know if I was paranoid but I turned around to check to see if there was anyone. I had a huge sigh of relief when I realized it was just my mind playing tricks on me.

Just as I resumed to facing front, I knocked pretty hard into someone. "I'm so sorry!" I rubbed my head as I'm pretty sure I collided with his chin. I looked up to meet the eyes of the man I bumped into, he was haggard looking, torn and tattered clothes with a couple of bruises on his face. He looked similar to Sasuke. Either that, or I'm seriously missing my boyfriend a lot.

He brushed it off politely. "No, I'm sorry you had to get those nice clothes filthy." My heart sank when I heard those words. I wonder how long has it been since he showered or even ate? "Tell you what, take some cash as an apology. Go buy yourself some food, hell, even some brand new nice ass clothes!" I uttered while digging through my back pocket for my wallet.
He was taken aback by what I've said,  and profusely declined. I pass him some cash but he kept insisting.

4:13PM

Just then my phone rang, it was Sasuke. Shit, I just realized I am so late! I nervously picked up, afraid of being yelled at. "Hello?"

"...hello? Is that what you're going to say? Where are you?" He asked firmly.

"Uh, just at the back of your company, in this alley- uh I mean.."

"Alley?"

"Uh, its fine really, I'm coming up right now."

"Yeah right, I'm coming down to find you." Before I could assure him everything was well, he hung up.

"Ah, crap..." I mumbled to myself. "Well, it was really nice meeting you and I'm terribly sorry I can't do anything much to help you.." I continued speaking to the man as I slid my wallet back into my back pocket.

"I really got to go now. See you around!" I smiled and waved before departing his side. As I took a few steps ahead, I could hear running from the end of the alley way, it was coming towards me.

It was Sasuke.

As I spread my arms wide to greet him with a hug, he jumped past me and pounced onto the homeless-looking man.

"No, Sasuke! No! Get off him!" I tried to held him back as he gave punches to the man below him. "He's just a homeless man! He didn't try anything, I swear! Please stop!"

"I saw him pick pocketing your wallet!" He paused for awhile to turn to look at me, furiously.
"I wasn't pick pocketing him! He dropped his wallet and I was reaching out to return it to him. Believe me, Sasuke." The man below Sasuke claimed his innocence so calmly and speaking the name of my lover so familiarly. Do they know each other?

"As if I would fucking believe you! What are you doing here? Did you come here to find me?!" Sasuke never looked this mad, he pulled the collar of the man closer to him violently.

"Is it that wrong to visit my younger brother?"

Is... Is this man... The one Sasuke mentioned?
Itachi?
