Chapter Twenty-Two
Chained To The Past
Itachi sighed warily as he watched the buses take off one by one. It was depressing watching them leave when all their thoughts were still consumed with the blond that had not been found. He could only imagine Sasuke's true anger to finding out he was going to take care of Naruto until they returned. In truth, Itachi was afraid of that himself. He didn't think he would be able to restrain himself from trying to seduce the blond once more. But he would just have to tap into his self-control, the one he had never seemed to use before.Chained To The Past
As the gloomy male made his way back inside, he pasted by the dining area. Stopping momentarily, he thought it would only be fair to bring something for Naruto to eat when he woke up. After all the blond was a garbage disposal. And when he said garbage, he meant garbage. Anyone who ate ramen all day every day had to be very unhealthy, yet not a ounce of extra fat was visible on Naruto's skinny body. Which was a miracle in itself.
He shuffled through a line at the breakfast buffet and picked out just about everything because he didn't know what Naruto liked and would eat just yet. He planned to know everything he could about the blond, his favorites, his hobbies, his desires. Though he was pretty sure Sasuke was along that list. How he hated Sasuke for having a better spot in Naruto's heart than him. Though it was his own fault for that. Hopefully Naruto would wake up soon so his food wouldn't get cool.
In fact, Naruto was just waking a little while after Itachi left. He moaned distastefully at the throbbing in his head and the uncomfortable feeling of being covered in one's own sweat. Two hazy blue eyes appeared weakly as he stared up at the ceiling. Had it all just been a dream? Slowly, Naruto forced himself to sit up, only filling a slight stinging in his backside, which was sure to have been more if Itachi had continued.
Looking around in some sort of dismal trance, Naruto was relieved to find the room was empty and that Itachi had left. But realization dawned on him once more; he was still naked. So would Itachi come back to finish the job. Naruto went into an immediate panic, rushing out from beneath his blankets. He had to get out of here, or at least somewhere safe before Itachi returned.
Weakly but quickly, Naruto made his way to the bathroom, closing and locking the door behind him. Thanks to that bastard his clothes were ripped and he didn't feel all that clean. But that was the least of Naruto's worries the moment he walked past the bathroom mirror. He stopped in place, his eyes huge with astonishment.
"Shit..." Naruto hissed, stepping closer to the mirror. His eyes locked with the parallel bruises on his wrist and hips where Itachi had held him down. And several other red marks from where he had been struggling Itachi forced him into a stilled position. He couldn't very well hide these from everyone, especially Sasuke. The younger Uchiha seemed to be able to pick up things like this.
That bastard...Naruto nipped his bottom lip lightly, trying to hold back the sadness that had returned to him full force. "I'm so stupid..." The blond whimpered, squeezing his hands tightly. He should have known Itachi wouldn't really like him. But regardless of what he should have known, he would have never expected the man to use him like this. As if he wasn't even human, just some little fuck toy to him.
Naruto suddenly gripped the edge of the sink, his head bowed shamefully between his shoulders. His legs felt weak and he slowly lowered down onto his knees, a gentle sob over taking him. He wanted to be home right now; he wished none of this ever happen. He wished he never met Itachi. Despite his own tears were ringing through his ears, Naruto heard the unexpected creak of the main door to the room. His eyes shot open; Itachi was back already.
"Naruto." Itachi called out softly with a smile as he walked into the room. He was hoping to see the blond still lightly sleeping on his shikibuton, but to his surprise it was empty. "Naruto?" He questioned out again. He looked around the room frantically and set down the food. That idiot wouldn't dare run away, would he?! No he couldn't! Itachi not only feared being arrested if anyone else was to find the blond, he feared Naruto was not quite in the healthiest condition to run about in fear.
Luckily he took instant notice to the closed bathroom door. "Naruto?" He asked out again, walking over to the door. He instinctively twisted the knob, only to find it had been locked. "Naruto get out here this instant." Itachi said sternly. He was in no mood for the blonde's games.
But Naruto hadn't been playing. The moment he heard Itachi attempt to get in, he coward away from the door, settling himself in the far corner of the bathroom inside the tub. He cradled his knees close to his chest and restrained from making a sound. Maybe Itachi would leave if he thought he wasn't in there, if he climbed out the window. Which Naruto had thought about, but went against it because he was still naked.
"Naruto! Get out of there!" Itachi demanded, knocking on the door firmly. It made him worried when he received no answer or the action he had hoped for. What if Naruto was so depressed he had drowned himself in the tub, or broke through the mirror and cut himself. "Naruto! We need to talk." He reiterated seriously.
It hurt him to think Naruto could be so desperate to get away from him. He never meant to hurt the blond so much. Who was he kidding, it had been his first intention to break Naruto down? But he changed his mind, and that wasn't illegal. He still had a chance to make everything right again, right?
Naruto whimpered incoherently, his hands flying over his ears as the other started to beat on the door more furiously. It was just like a nightmare, where the monster is wildly trying to bust down the door to get to you. Naruto winced and continuously prayed that it would just go away, that Itachi would just disappear from the face of the planet. But the more he prayed the more the Uchiha banged on the door.
It terrified the blond to here the loud rattling of the door and Itachi's frustrated grunts and shouts, ordering him to come out. Naruto desperately tried to drown out the sound, but only more tears fled form his eyes as it was inevitable. He couldn't take it; his erratically pulsing heart, his fiery fear and anger.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Naruto screamed at the top of his voice, the weak sobbing following his brave demand. He did care for the fact that the door finally stopped shaking and Itachi's yelling had cease, because he knew the Uchiha would still be there.
Itachi was stoned in place, his feet planted firmly into the floor, his heart stopped. He was only making matters worse by frightening Naruto. But what else could he do. "Naruto...hear me out at least...I'm-"
"I DON'T GIVE A CRAP! JUST GO TO HELL AND LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!" Naruto yelled out again, his cheeks flushed red with strain and fury. "I'D RATHER DIE THAN HEAR ANY OF YOUR BULLCRAP!"
Itachi was growing more frustrated with each passing second. Naruto wouldn't even let him get a word out. He had to get that blond out of there one way or another. Itachi suddenly smirked and headed out the balcony door to the small backyard. He was thankful they were on the first floor so he wouldn't have to climb across railings to get to Naruto.
He walked over to the side of the building, smiling proudly when he spotted a small window that blond to the room's bathroom. Stealthily he lifted up, considering himself luckily it was unlocked, and climbed in.
Naruto gasped, seeing the Uchiha climb through the window. He got up form his spot and raced over to the other side of the room. He couldn't make a quick escape because the window had been closer to the door. "I though I told you to leave me alone!" He yelled out, backing himself up into another corner.
Itachi simply chuckled. "You know me Naruto, as well as any one Uchiha. We don't give up so easily. Now come on I've brought you breakfast." Itachi explained, approaching the frightened blond.
"No! I don't want anything you have to off-" before Naruto had a chance to spit out his words, he was easily scooted up into the Uchiha's arms. "Put me down!" He demanded, squirming uncontrollably, flailing his limbs in every direct as Itachi carried him off to the door.
"Sure thing your royal pain in the ass." Itachi mocked. He roughly dropped Naruto back onto his mat. He managed to catch the blond by the wrist again, making him wince, before he could try to escape once more. "You need to eat," Itachi informed sternly. Before Naruto could object again, Itachi retrieved the food and set it down in front of the pouting teen, who sneered at him nastily. "I'm not leaving until you eat."
Naruto growled fiercely when Itachi flopped down on the floor in front of him, his cold eyes never releasing Naruto form his hold. "How do I know it's not poison? Or maybe a drug for you can have you way with me." Naruto snarled, slipping the plate away from him.
"Because corpses are not what I consider a great turn on, or lifeless, submissive dolls for that matter." Itachi smirked, pushing the plate back to Naruto. "I love it when they squirm; sort of like the thrill of the hunt. An enticing prey is a disobedient prey."
Coiling with illness, Naruto preferred not to hear about Itachi's preferences. It only made him more sick to think Itachi loved it when he struggled and begged against the actions. It felt as though his heart was being squeezed by uncaring hands when he knew his desperate tears had only been a cruel joke, a good laugh to the sadistic Uchiha. "I'm not hungry..." Naruto mumbled at last, his eyes connecting with the carpet that he had found to be so much more entertaining than looking an Uchiha in the eye.
"Is that so? Well I guess I will stay then, or would you rather have me feed you?" Itachi asked with a knowing glint in his eyes. Either option, he thought was interesting. Though it became apparent by Naruto's pale expression, that he didn't like either option.
With a rebellious huff, Naruto dragged the plate closer to him and shoved a piece of toast into his mouth, glaring at Itachi as he chewed.
"Good boy." Itachi teased. "Now that your mouth is full, I think it's best I do all the talking." He received no reply from the angry blond that continued to violently force food into his mouth. His cold blue eyes even made Itachi nervous to speak, but he over came that simply with thinking about how normally cheerful the blond was. "I just wanted to say...I'm sorry." Itachi apologized.
He looked back at the blond with some hope that Naruto would at least hear his words. But it seemed they had no effect on the scarred teen. He glowered at Itachi with jus the same amount of hate he had down before the apology. "I hope you don't think I will actually forgive you for what you did." Naruto grumbled disdainfully.
"I know," Itachi sighed. "What I tried to do was unforgivable Naruto. But I at least want you to understand why I did it."
"Because you are some sick bastard that has no regard for anyone but yourself!" Naruto snapped back. He stopped eating, anger always made it hard for him to stomach his food.
"That's not it at all! Don't for one second think that I don't give a damn about you Naruto!" Itachi barked, his own anger showing through. He was tired of having people think that, when it wasn't entirely true. He hated having to feel like he had to prove himself to others. Even Naruto. Yet, it was foolish of him to think Naruto could just understand him like that. "I do care Naruto... I really do."
"Well if this is how you treat people you care about, I'm glad you don't care about Sasuke!" Naruto added.
"Leave him out of this!" Itachi shouted, nearly jumping from his spot. He calmed down some when he saw how quickly Naruto had flinched away from him. "That spoiled brat is lucky," Itachi growled. Sasuke had Naruto, and simply fro that Itachi could see reason to hate him. "I don't want you to forgive Naruto, but I don't want you to hate me either. You make it hard enough for me to deny these urges. But to avoid me completely, would only drive me crazy with need."
"Fuck off Itachi," Naruto whispered under breath, though he knew Itachi had heard it anyway. "Isn't there enough people you've screwed already to forget about me?"
"Damn it Naruto! This isn't just about sex! Sure I want to fuck you senseless, but that would be pointless without some feeling behind it."
"Oh, so now you want to love me too?!" Naruto pouted, turning away from Itachi. "Well I don't want your love. And sure as hell won't be getting anything from me!"
"Are you a total idiot?!" Itachi snapped, thrashing forward and tackling the blond. Instinctively, Naruto was already struggling beneath him again, but this time he wouldn't release him until he got his point across. " I could take you right now and you wouldn't be able to do a take thing, but take in the ass!" Itachi spat, ignoring the paleness expression on Naruto's face when he said that. "But that's the problem, I don't want to take it any more. For you...I want to be given that treasure." Itachi finally said sincerely. "I want you to feel for me as I feel for you. Not as a sibling or friend...but as lovers."
"I don't need a lover Itachi." The blond muttered viciously. "I needed you to be there for me, I needed you to understand and respect my decision!" Naruto bit his lips again, hating how he was crying for the third time today. But he managed to look Itachi in the eyes. "I needed you Itachi...but not like this," he bitterly whimpered.
Itachi sighed in defeat, lifting off the blond. This was entirely pointless. Naruto wouldn't understand him unless he put it in big bold letters on a billboard. Naruto stared at him in bewilderment as the Uchiha disappeared into the bathroom. He stiffened instinctively when he heard the sound of running water.
The sound lingered through the air for several minutes. Naruto finally gathered enough courage to check it out, so he timidly walked over, peering into the bathroom. He was startled to find the bathtub was filled opt the edge with lots of bubbles.
"Well...are you coming in?" Itachi asked with a husky voice. He was tired of speaking, yelling and snarling, and it had take it's toll on him. He turned off the water and quickly set a large towel aside. "A nice warm bottle bath always does the body good," he smiled genuinely.
The blond was not impressed with Itachi's feeble attempts, but none the less he came by the tub. "Don't think you will win me over with bubble baths."
"Oh I wouldn't dream of it." Itachi chuckled warmly. It made Naruto sick. How could he act so loving after what he did to him? Had Itachi no pride, no shame? It appeared he hadn't when Naruto noticed the older man was in fact taking off his own clothes.
"What are you doing?!" Naruto asked hysterically.
"Come now Naruto, we are both boys. How is it we can stay in the springs together but not bathe together?" Itachi teased, pulling his dark shirt over his head. "Plus, I don't you can very well wash your own back, am I right? Feel free to return the favor though." With that, Itachi removed his pants as well.
Naruto sighed. Even if he were to object, who said Itachi won't force him into another lose-lose situation. This thought in mind, Naruto crawled over the tub's edge and settled down into the large mist of bubbles. A coy smile etched on his face as he couldn't help but love the nice feel up warm water and the fluffy bubbles that nearly buried him.
Progressing with undressing, Itachi finally pulled off his boxers, standing freely before the blond. He chuckled over Naruto's obvious shock. The gentle blush that caressed his tanned cheeks, were all too adorable. "Like what you see?" Itachi picked.
The teen turned his head away from the large member staring him in the face. He couldn't deny it was the biggest length he had seen in his fourteen years of living. It was intimidating and overwhelming to just think about it. Naruto even shivered with the thought of that big rode forcing itself into him. Not doubt he would be screaming at the top of his lungs with pain.
Naruto stiffened more when he felt the water slightly rise as Itachi stepped in behind him. He yelped softly when he could already fell Itachi's member prodding him in the back. He would much rather prefer to be behind Itachi or at least facing him, then again he would be too embarrassed by the sight when the bubbles finally cleared away.
"You don't have to be so nervous. I promise not to try anything." Itachi admitted truthfully. "Even I know how to respect the sanctity of a bath." He chuckled, slipping his arms around Naruto's waist and drawing the boy to lean back against him. It took Naruto a long while to relax against Itachi's chest. he was just waiting for the moment Itachi tried something so he could jump out of here. But it never happened.
"Itachi..." Naruto whispered finally in the silence. The only sound was the almost inaudible fizzing or popping of tiny bubbles and the motion of the water. "Why do you like sex so much?" He asked bashfully. It was not one of his favorite topics but he just had to know. Even he knew Itachi wasn't always such a pervert. He was an innocent at one time, though if not for very long.
Instead of receiving an immediate answer, Naruto heard the other sigh. Itachi looked distantly at the ceiling, his head leaning back against the tub. He never did like explaining it. In fact he had never told anyone why he did it so much. "Sasuke doesn't even know that Naruto." Itachi admitted. "But it's for the best."
"Why?" Naruto asked, finding himself suddenly curious with Itachi's reply.
"It would hurt him too much, that's if he even believed me." Naruto went quite, hoping Itachi would elaborate more. "You see...I was just a few years younger than Sasuke when I first found out about sex. I guess I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. Our mom didn't work allot, she stayed at home cooking and cleaning allot. And our father was always busy. But on the one day he got a day off, mom had to go visit a friend out of town."
Naruto gulped he very much didn't like where this tell was going. He kept thinking maybe their father left and Itachi had a party while he was out, or that he actually went looking for him, but was pulled away into some alley by a pervert.
"Me and Sasuke were both ecstatic about having the entire day to spend with our father. And the day actually went pretty well..." Itachi paused for a moment, taking the time to swallow hard. "I didn't think what happened would happen when Sasuke went off to bed before me. I was heading off to bed too, but father called me back into the living room. I asked him what he wanted...and he told me I was finally old enough to know how to be an adult. At the time I didn't know that what he taught me that night, was something inappropriate for kids, much less between father and son."
Shivering lightly, Naruto was finding it harder and harder to listen to the story. To just think that someone hurt Itachi when he didn't know it was wrong, made Naruto's blood boil.
"I suppose I believed what he and others always told me. That love hurt, and oh did it hurt. But what he did to me wasn't the last night. He started taking off more days from work and told mother to go shopping for herself or something. I hated him for what he did, all the more when Sasuke was just in the other room, unknowing and still pure...unlike me. I guess it became routine to me, so when he wasn't around doing those things to me I didn't feel loved or happy.
That had been going on for years and Sasuke never knew. It was when he went on that trip with our mother, that we found out they died. I actually thought I was finally free from him, that I didn't need him to teach me this rough game of love. I was wrong...I started to become desperate for the touch I had both hated and loved. So I found the comfort in others. At first I would let myself be used because I didn't care, but it made me sick to have anyone but him be inside me."
"So you took control? You treat others like he did you?" Naruto asked lightly. His throat had turned dry within seconds and he felt somewhat tainted with the thoughts. But all the same, he was glad he knew this about Itachi. Though it didn't change what he had done, Naruto knew it wasn't entirely his fault
"Yes." Itachi replied simply. He finally looked down at Naruto. "But that is why Sasuke hates me so much. He doesn't know why I hated or father so much, why he had always asked to spend time with me more than him, why I couldn't bare to be around him anymore knowing the things I had done. How can you stand to be near someone who you know will never understand you? He loved or father and was in fact jealous of me. I hate him for that, because if I were to tell him, he would only think I was a liar. But I can't help but feel happy he had been spared my same fate. He at least, remained pure and innocent."
"I'm sorry Itachi..." Naruto whispered shyly. "I appreciate you telling me. But...did you tell because it would make me forgive you...or because you wanted to?" Naruto had to ask. Even if Itachi had intentionally told him to get him to forgive him, Naruto wouldn't be able to hold this grudge.
"I guess I just needed to get something off my chest." Itachi smiled. "And...I was hoping you would forgive me too." He laughed kindly.
Naruto sighed. "You jerk." Despite having been tricked, Naruto smiled widely. "I'll forgive you, but on two conditions." Naruto chuckled, turning around fully and wrapping his arms around Itachi's neck.
"Anything."
"One, you never ever, ever, EVER try that again." Naruto stated seriously. "And two...you tell Sasuke what you told me." Itachi frowned at the second request. "I'm not asking you to do it now, just on your own time, when you feel it is best. But the longer you wait, the harder it's going to be for him to accept it." Naruto advised.
"Fine, you win." Itachi sighed. He wasn't sure if he was really going to keep that promise, seeing as how Sasuke was always so stubborn, but he could at least try to make Naruto happy. It was the only thing he could do since the blond forbade him from molesting him, which was oh so much fun on occasions. Oh well, he would just have to find someone else to pester.
To Be Continued...
A/N: Wow, I know I kind of direct all of the sympathy to Naruto from Sasuke and then to Itachi, lol. But I think its best for the readers and the story if the views weren't all so one sided. We all no everyone has gone through something dramatic in their life, and its only fair that Itachi have a good reason for his behavior. But can you even imagine Sasuke's reaction to all this?
Anyway, thanks for the great reviews again, and please keep it up so I have the best of reason to update this fic as soon as possible!
