Chapter 58

I do not own pic!

You resumed walking with the two men, the sun will soon go down, and you still didn't eat anything or find a place to sleep in, is he planning to make you walk all night long?
"Itachi! I can't take it anymore!", you outburst suddenly, making the two guys stop and look at you, Itachi doesn't seem to have any kind of emotions on his face, he just looked at you coldly, with pity in his eyes.
"That's it Itachi, we are stopping by the next village which is on the right side of our path, we will rest there and continue tomorrow", Kisame said, looking at you, then back at Itachi who has been staring at you, these are your limits [name]?
"Fine, but we won't be able to go there if she keeps sitting on the ground", the Uchiha said, in a mocking tone, getting closer to you.
"I wouldn't have gotten this tired if I had eaten something at least", you said, getting up, feeling your thighs and legs hurting you from walking all day.
"No need for more talk you two, let's take the right path", Kisame said, helping you out while Itachi raised an eyebrow, Kisame?

The three of you walked toward the village Kisame talked about, you have been walking slowly due to tiredness, as you arrived, the sun had already gone down.
"We should first go book rooms", Itachi said as Kisame nodded while you remained silent, you three walked in the streets looking for an inn or a hotel to spend the night in, when you spotted a sign for one.
The three of you headed inside, and like the other time, Itachi booked a room for the two of you, with a doubled bed.
You pouted, if he is just acting cold and distant he should only keep on that and book separated rooms, or at least a room with two beds! Actually you don't mind spending the night with Kisame instead of him now, at least the latter will not keep putting more stress on you.

"Why not two separated rooms or beds!", you asked, clutching your hands into fists, as the three of you got the keys and were heading outside to find somewhere to eat at. The Uchiha stopped then looked at you and said:"I want to reduce the charges, and I need to control that bad habit of yours to go wander around at nights, also, we have already slept together before, and nothing wrong happened, right?", he finished his words with a smirk.

"Never mind!", you shrugged and turned around, while he smiled looking at your back, now you're acting like before, cute.
"anyway Itachi, I'd like to remind you that we need [name] alive, don't do something in the room", Kisame said, as the three of you walked ahead, toward a nearby restaurant, while Itachi didn't say anything in respond.

You have finally arrived to the restaurant near the inn, Itachi and Kisame waited for the food as you headed to the bathroom.
You headed back, feeling a bit relieved as you had finally got some rest, a waitress had came and surved your food.
You had took your chopsticks and was about to start eating, you lifted your eyes up toward Itachi who was sitting across from you facing you, feeling his constant gaze upon you.
Your eyes met, and suddenly and suprisingly, he winked at you, as his lips formed a smile.
Your eyes widened as you held back a gasp, what's the meaning of this? What does he mean by this? And why the heck are you blushing now?!
He looked down at his bowl of soup and started eating, as the smile on his face turned into a small smirk, while you remained looking at him confused.
"[name], is there a problem?", you shook your head hearing Kisame's voice, who has been sitting next to Itachi talking to you, he surely had noticed his partner constant control over you and his constant staring at you, but the look on your face [name]..
"N-No, everything is fine", you said, smiling slightly for the first time this day after meeting them, he nodded, still feeling suspicious about what could his partner had done to you now.

You were back at the inn to rest after having dinner, Kisame headed to his room while you and Itachi went to your own, he opened the door and you entered first, he locked the door and followed after you.
You felt more uneasy and uncomfortable than the first time you have shared a room with him, from being lovers a few days ago to a complete strangers now...
You expected him to just 'order' you to go to sleep or anything else rudely, this is his personality now after all.
You were still thinking what to do next? Ask him why is he acting like this and demand an explanation or...
Your string of thoughts has been interrupted by a soft touch on your shoulder, you gasped loudly as you turned around quickly facing him, just to see a different look on his face, a look of sorrow and guilt...he then suddenly pulled you into a hug.

What's this? Another game by him? Is he trying to fool you again?

You wanted to push him away, your hands rested on his own and tried to removed them from around your waist but you couldn't even push them, not even a little.
You realized you were deep in love with him, not even his new behavior managed to make you forget your love for him ot hate him, you thought of it as a temporarily case, what you have seen in his eyes from the first time you have met made you so sure this man...is not bad.
"I'm sorry...", he whispered to you, worsening the situation, how are you gonna resist, the fact is...with his new behavior and crulness, he made you crave and miss that sweet side of him even more...

"I-Itachi...tell me...what happened? Tell me what's going on?"
