Italics means a thought.

 

PREVIOUSLY:

“My apologies, once again. My name is Uchiha Itachi.”

 

Kagome's eyes widened as soon as the man said his name. “U-Uchiha I-Itachi…?”

 

“Yes?”

 

“I've heard many things about you from Neji, most of them bad. What are you doing here?”

 

Itachi tipped Kagome's head up. “I'm here for you.”

 

His lips met hers in a soft kiss.

 

 

“Mmph!” Kagome began pushing against Itachi. “What do you think you're doing?!”

 

Itachi brushed his finger against Kagome's swollen lips, courtesy of himself. “Why? Aren't you enjoying yourself?”

 

“Are you crazy?! I love Neji!”

 

“I see. I'll have to kill him then.”

 

“N-no!”

 

“No?”

Itachi pinned Kagome to a tree and teasingly kissed his way down her face. As he got to Kagome's neck, she whimpered softly and attempted to push him away.

 

“N-no…this is wrong Itachi. I love Neji.”

 

Itachi turned hurt blood-red eyes to face Kagome's own shining brown ones.

“Does your heart truly belong to him?”

 

Kagome turned her face to the side.

 

Itachi hooked a finger under Kagome's chin. “Look at me.”

 

Kagome raised hesitant eyes to meet Itachi's hooded ones.

 

“Look at me and tell me you truly love Neji.”

 

As Kagome spoke out, her voice rang clearly across the clearing.

“Neji once told me that everything is controlled by fate. Our destinies are decided for us as soon as we are born. And there is nothing we can do to change it.”

 

Itachi nodded, wondering where this was going.

 

Kagome took a deep breath and continued on.

“Even though our fates are decided, the choices we make ultimately affect the outcome of our lives. Neji chose to betray Konoha, his home, his future, by not killing me when we were younger.”

 

Looking thoughtful for a moment, Itachi nodded again.

“Continue.”

 

“That's when I fell in love with him. I swore that I would always love my savior and my heart would never waver.”

 

Itachi nodded understandingly.

“I have just one question. Why would Konoha want Neji to kill you?”

 

“That, I don't know.” Why did Konoha want me dead?

 

“Run away with me.”

 

“What?” That's exactly what Neji said.

 

“We can start our own clan. I am a powerful ninja, and I can protect you and any children we have from Konoha and their Anbu.”

 

“I-I can't.”

 

“Why not? Give me one reason why Kagome.”

 

“I swore to Neji I'd be with him always. Please understand Itachi.”

 

“I understand.”

 

“Thank you. You don't know how much that means to me.”

 

“Kagome.”

 

“Itachi?”

 

“I will wait for you. If you ever need someone to talk to, I'll find you.”

 

“How will you find me Itachi?”

 

“I have my sources. Oh, and keep this too.”

Itachi took out a headband and presented it to Kagome.

 

“What?”

 

“You'll see.”

He studied Kagome. Itachi took the headbang from Kagome and tied it around her neck.

“You look cute like that.”

 

Kagome blushed a dark red but kept her eyes on Itachi.

 

Itachi turned away from Kagome and left in the blink of an eye.
