Sℓєєp waℓkiηg [[Itachi Uchiha oneshots]]

Just Visiting

This was cute, so I borrowed it from my other oneshot booklet... Sssshhhh...

Itachi pulled up his cloak, determined not to be seen as he silently moved about the familiar terrain. By now, he knew where every rock was and he had mentally mapped out each and every blade of grass. Most of the time, he came alone. There were only three occasions where Itachi brought company, twice being his younger brother who had killed him once before and then the other  being his very much alive girlfriend, [Name], who hadn't died at all. They were the only two souls that knew what happened when Itachi wandered off every now and then when he was mean to be out doing things for Lady Hokage. One of his pale hands clutched daisies, the other fisting some roses. All of the flowers were white with a red rim, and this was done on purpose to symbolise so many things. Quickly looking over his shoulder, Itachi confirmed that he was alone. Making sure that his easily recognisable face was still hidden however, just in case, he ventured onwards to where the two headstones laid upon the wet ground. Their names seemed to stare up at him, reminding him what had happened that nyght. It was raining back then, too. Wasn't it? He swept away some stray leaves and knelt, bringing his pale knuckles to the flat pieces of ornate rock and loosened his hold on the stems, allowing the flowers to fall until they rested upon the graves.

"Sasuke and I are doing fine," he said, wishing his dead parents could respond.

He had been the one to kill them, but he was very young when he had done that and he was simply following orders. Today, he was a man and he missed his deceased relatives very much. When his younger brother, Sasuke Uchiha, had found him resurrected, Itachi was uncertain what to do. Would his parents have been so overjoyed at the reunion if they, as well, were returned to the world of the living?

"Itachi, what are you doing?"

He turned around with a sad smile to face [Name].

"Nothing, just visiting."

She came towards him and fell to her knees, hugging her boyfriend tightly. [Name] could feel Itachi shaking, not sure if it was from the cold or from the tears he was trying to fight.

"It's okay," she whispered into his hair.

Itachi wasn't so sure.
