I do not own pic!

"Come on Tatsu, shake him again", you told your son trying to hold back your laughter as you watched him trying to wake his father up, as Itachi seemed to be sleeping heavily from the medicine you have given him last night after he had that nightmare.
"Dad! Wake up!", Tatsu pouted as he climbed on top of Itachi and sat on his stomach, placing his hands on his chest shaking him in attempts to wake him up, when finally Itachi started to stir, then opened his beautiful black eyes.
"Hey...good morning you two...", Itachi muttered in a sleepy voice as his lips formed a genuine smile, seeing both yours and Tatsu's faces first thing in the morning, such a great pleasure to have the two of you beside him, he chuckled seeing the big grin appear on Tatsu's face as he woke him up while you leaned on the side watching his sleepy face as well.
"How are you feeling?", you asked him with a smile, clearly seeing how relaxed and easy he seemed this morning.
"I'm feeling great, love, thank you...Tatsu, when did you wake up?", he asked the little boy rising his eyebrows questioningly.
"I woke up a while ago then came here, mom let me in and asked me to wake you up", Tatsu explained playing randomly with Itachi's necklace.
"Such a good boy...", Itachi said with a chuckle gently ruffling Tatsu's hair.
"Alright, you stay here with your dad, Tatsu, I will go to take a shower quickly then I will prepare you for school", you said standing up stretching and grabbing some clothes then heading to the bathoom.
"Tatsu, I want to ask you something", Itachi murmured, stretching his arms while still laying in bed as Tatsu nodded with determination and said: "yes dad!".

"Okay my son, I will lay on my stomach and you walk on my back...I feel a bit tense and a little massage from your little feet will be great...", Itachi said lazily turning around in his place and laying on his stomach as Tatsu giggled and got excited climbing on Itachi's back.

"But don't jump, that would be bad", Itachi said with a chuckle closing his eyes as Tatsu started doing what Itachi asked him.

"Alright Tatsu, be nice and don't make troubles, I or dad will come pick you up later. Now, goodbye sweetheart", you kissed Tatsu's cheek as you took him to his school with Itachi, the other children were entering the school, running around and playing and talking to each other for a while, Tatsu then left as well to join them.
"[Name], are you busy today?", Itachi asked you as you two started walking away from the school, "not really, I need to do some checking, and see if there is anything needed, how about you, Itachi?", you said walking through the streets heading to your destination, the hospital.
"I need to check and see what happened during my absence these two weeks and see if there are any problems with the security systems, so [name]...", Itachi smirked as he suddenly blocked your path and stopped walking, standing in front of you and stopping you as well as you looked at him with confusion.
"Itachi? What is it?", you crossed your arms over your chest as you looked at him seeing that look still on his face.
"You might not remember...but...", he started as he took your hand and rolled the sleeve of your kimono a little bit, showing the beautiful bracelet on your wrist, "it was here when you first dropped your Uchiha bracelet and I found it, it all started from here...", he said as he smiled warmly and looked at your eyes, you gasped slightly looking around then back at him, indeed! it is the exact same place...even the spot he is standing on is the same when you bumped into him...
"I bumped into you...and then I saw your Sharingan, I remembered that dream then I run away...", you said slightly biting your lower lip as he tilted his head to one side and smirked.

"Yeah, but before that happened, I noticed the look in your eyes when you lifted your head and looked up at me, blushing slightly and staring at me with those pretty eyes of yours, your cheeks heated up but before I could say anything you quickly run away leaving your bracelet behind", he said seeing the blush on your cheeks intensity, that is something that never changed...
"Y-yeah I remember, I was so sad and worried about it, until you brought it back to me and then I figured out later...who you are...", you said looking aside with a smile, remembering those memories years ago.

"Fate can never be expected...from total strangers, into lovers, spouses, parents of a beautiful child...", Itachi said in a gentle voice passing a hand down your lose long hair, as you looked at him with a smile and the cute blushing still on your face.
"Itachi..."
"Even through all this time, you still have that purity and innocence, a simple word can make your face turn into a mess of red", he smirked saying this, how does he do that? Simply you're weak against him...
"Itachi! don't be a flirt now!", you smacked his chest playfully, seeing people were passing by, even though you two you were not standing in the middle of the street.
"I told you [name], for you, I'm a flirt...what did you do to me [name]? I never thought I'd experience such feelings, you fipped my world upside down, you made me run after you, cling to you, seeking your love, what did you to me?", he smirked more, lifting your chin up making you look directly into his eyes.
"I should ask you the same thing...I have never thought I'd fall for someone that quickly, until you suddenly appeared in my life...", you said smirking as well, but unexpectedly, he did something else.

"Sweet...", he suddenly held you by your waist and lifted you up in the air, making your eyes widen in surprise as you felt embarrassed, noticing how people were looking at you two, some even stopped and just watched you and Itachi.
"Itachi!! P-put me down!!", you squeaked in a low and shy voice feeling embarrassed from the situation, but...it felt beautiful, to see his love for you, not needing to hide it...

"No", he said with a smirk, looking up at your face, your hands where free as you held on his shoulders while your feet were dangling freely in the air, his face...framed by those black silky locks, he looked as beautiful as a full moon...
He observed your face closely, you're like the sun...you have lightened his life and brought him out of the darkness...you gave him hope, you were his hope...

"[Name], I love you..."
"I love you more, Itachi..."
