~Chapter Two
"Hello Aniki, Mother, Father" Sasuke said as he came out from under the shade the flowers created for him. His smile was downright cruel his eyes focused only on his brother even as he greeted everyone except for his brother's fiancee whom he didn't want to acknowledge.
It was a suprise to see his younger brother only a few feet away after hating him so much for the past two years. Itachi knew he would run into Sasuke when he came to the Uchiha mansion again and he thought he was prepared to face his brother without feeling any lingering hatred but he was sadly mistaken.
Seeing that smile on Sasuke's face reminded him of a much younger Sasuke, the same one who made sure he never had any friend and made his life hell.
For some reason his younger brother never wanted to see Itachi happy making it his life goal to make the older boy unhappy forever. After what happened almost three years ago Itachi swore never to come to japan again if it meant seeing his brother.
Admittedly it was childish and cowardly but he had been certain he would kill his brother or both of them if he stayed then.
"Sasuke you startled me!" Mikoto gasp her voice acting as a anchore and pulling Itachi into a semblance of control.
"Don't tell me you ve been standing there the whole time" she said.
"I felt left out when everyone came running to welcome father from his trip"Sasuke said simply.
"I never thought you would want to welcome me home Sasuke especially one you ve not stepped in for almost a year "Fugaku inputed.
"Now now dear you said you wouldn't scold him beside i'm sure he has a pretty good reason for avoiding home" Mikoto placated her husband.
It soon became obvious once the noise died down that Itachi had not said anything in response to Sasuke's greeting.
"Whats the matter Aniki are you still unwilling to talk to me i thought you ve grown past such immature behaviour" Sasuke said his smile still in place he notice Itachi's fiancee whats her name bristle as if insulted.
"Of course not, i'm just suprise to see you, if anyone hasn't grown it's you Sasuke you haven't gained that growth spurt that boys your age get have you" Itachi said making Sasuke almost lose his smile, almost, his height was a sensitive issue while he wasn't short he was the shortest among his age group.
"I think my height is part of my charm, Itachi, it's a good part of the person i am" he said.
"I'm sure" Itachi nodded feigning a solemn look and irritating Sasuke.
Itachi raised his hand palm up gesturing for his fiancee she stepped forward her blue gown flowing around her ankle. She was nothing special on the eyes but she had grace, Sasuke reluctantly admitted to himself.
"Please meet my fiancee Sasuke" he said when her small hand was on his."Harano Sakura"
Sakura gave a low nod as she said "Nice to Meet you Sasuke-kun, i have heard so much of you"
"Nice to meet you too mi senora, while you ve heard about me i have heard absolutely nothing about you looks like brother has been holding out on our end"Sasuke said while taking her hand from his brother's and placing a kiss on it all the while his eyes remained on her green ones. His reward was the blush on her cheeks.
"O-oh" she stammered much like any girl would do around him.
"But still i never would have thought my brother as the kind of guy to come this far with a lady, i'm truelly surprise at this development" his thumb rubbed at her knuckles absently.
Her blush grew over her face.
Her hand was suddenly pulled away from Sasuke's by his brother who had a hard look in his eyes that made Sasuke's smile grow.
Oh why do you continue to expose your weaknesses to me Aniki, he thought amused.
"it getting colder we should go inside" without any other word he pulled his Fiancee not so gently with him.
Fugaku gave Sasuke his usual disapproving look that made the young man want to strangle him and followed his precious son. Sasuke couldn't help the look of utter hatred that he gave his father as the man left.
"Don't look at him like that you know what you did was wrong"Mikoto said
"What, greet my brother's fiancee like every brother would-"
"You know what i mean"Mikoto said giving him her 'don't joke with me' look
Sasuke sighed and looked away.
"I don't want the first impression Sakura-chan gets from this family is that we are dysfunctional "
"Sakura-chan?" Sasuke asked eyebrow raised.
"Don't start, she's going to be your sister-inlaw so don't cause any trouble for her okay"
Sasuke shrugged.
"Who said anything about causing trouble it may not seem like it but i actually want to see my brother happy. " even as he said this his smile said another thing
Mikoto simply shook her head and continued down the walk way to the house.
Dinner was an affair of annoyed look here and there and pretend happiness. Soon it was over and the family retreated to the study room. The fireplace was alight and the room was warm they started trading questions wanting to know more about the new person about to join the family.
"So exactly what do you do" Sasuke interrupted his mother who was having one conversation that was probably girls related.
Itachi's fiancee looked surprised and hesitant as if she expected something else from Sasuke.
Wonder what Aniki has been telling her about me, the younger Uchiha thought.
"I work as a nurse"She replied.
"Oh, a nurse? Is that how you met my brother, he was your patient and you had to treat him or something because forgive me but i can't believe that my brother would ever talk up a woman like you" Sasuke made sure that his last sentence implied what he wanted them to think.
It worked when Itachi opened his mouth to respond and Sasuke turned to face him expecting their usual banter, one they always had since they were Children where they tried to get one up on each other, but The pink haired woman suddenly placed a hand on Itachi's stopping him like Sasuke had never seen his brother stop before. The annoyed look in his eyes dispated and he became calm and cool once again. This irritated Sasuke like an itch on the scalp.
"By a woman like me you mean"Sakura said obviously wanting to defend herself but she was not the one Sasuke wanted to annoy just his brother.
"A classy woman " he said and smiled at Sakura's open mouthed surprise.
"It's just that i'm curious as to how my brother met you. normally people like you, a nurse i mean, are usually unapproachable at least most of the nurses i ve met are"
"Oh" Sakura said a relived smile on her lips
"I guess you could say i have always been a hard nut to crack and i have never really been interested in guys except work that's until Itachi of course but we didn't meet as patient and nurse we met in a fancy hotel and at the beach" She replied.
"Oh that's so romantic, i can just imagine the two of you walking hand in hand into the sunset" Mikoto said in cheery voice that didn't quite reach everybody.
"Uh not exactly but perhaps in the end, i do hope to get married on the beach " she gave a smile to Itachi as if confirming something with him.
"Ha that's wonderful you should do it at sunset it would be so magical"
"I'm glad"Sasuke's voice seemed to suck all the excitement from the room"To hear that Aniki did infact grow a backbone during his stay in spain" he said
"Are implying that i used to be afraid of you"Itachi's voice remained calm and he even raised an amused eyebrow.
"Not me no just women, especially pretty ones. You lost your tongue everytime they look at you it was an amusing sight really, "
Itachi blinked hard and his lips thinned but he made no comment the only person who responded was Sakura who giggled a little.
Every eye turned to her.
"Oh i'm sorry i just can't imagine a shy and closed up Itachi. The Itachi i have come to know and love is a very exuberant man who doesn't care what anyone thought about him. It was the first thing that attracted me to him"
The love birds smiled and just like before Itachi's annoyance disappeared. Sasuke rolled his eyes and looked away. Why is seeing Itachi smile make him feel so angry.
Itachi refused to meet Sasuke's eyes after this and even when Sasuke tried to goad him into an arguement it didn't work, it was annoying.
As everyone left for their rooms Sasuke watch the two love birds hold hands and walk out together he was about to follow them when his father was suddenly in the way.
"Would you excuse me father"He said letting his irritation squeeze out through his voice.
"No you and i need to talk"Fugaku replied as he waved Sasuke back to his chair.
"I don't think there is anything we have to talk about father"Sasuke grumbled even as he sat back down.
"Sure you do,"Fugaku smile didn't reach his eyes"I'm not a fool Sasuke, i know what you ve been trying to do all night" he said
"I have no idea what you are talking about"Sasuke's best emotionless mask fell into place one that worked well when dealing with men like Fugaku hard headed and stupid.
"You remember why your brother left those years, your part in it? I won't have a repeat of it you hear me, if you know you can not be civil you might as well return back to london tomorrow."
Sasuke gritted his teeth. Why!
"You make it sound like it's all my fault"he replied.
"It is Sasuke."Fugaku said calmly.
Though Sasuke had always suspected that both his parents blamed him for what happened three years ago it was still a hard pill to swallow when it was said to his face but Sasuke refused to give Fugaku the pleasure of seeing his pain.
"Fine"He said as he got to his feet.
"Fine?"
"I will do as you say"
Fugaku sighed like a man with the weight of the world.
"Why is it so hard to get along with your brother, Itachi is a very wonderful person why must you always try to hurt him"
"Itachi is a man father not a child let him defend himself" he said and strolled out from the study.
"Sasuke!"Fugaku called but was ignored.
Itachi escorted His fiancee to her room which was located on the second floor by the west wing. As they reached the brown painted door Sakura let out a low laugh.
Itachi glanced at her to see her redden cheek she was probably tipsy from the little wine they had, Sakura couldn't hold her wine.
"What are you laughing about" he asked her as they arrived at her door.
She looked at him and smiled her eyes were bright and lively. She laughed again then opened her door.
"Oh wow, this is huge" she said as she saw the huge room with the king size bed with canopy and all. The drapes were creamy white, the lights were turned low as soon as they entered and it gave the room a serene look. There was a huge three dimensional mirror by their left and after it the window with blue coloured curtains that were drawn. Also the rug was blue and they look soft enough to sleep on.
"Is this my room? I'm going to be sleeping here all by myself?"
Itachi smiled as he entered and closed the door.
"Yes of course, mother doesn't think it's appropriate for two unmarried people to share a room."Itachi replied.
Sakura sat on the bed rather ungracefully.
"Oh wow it's so soft i could sink in" she laughed.
She looked up at Itachi again and sighed.
"Oh your brother, he is a real piece of work. I can't believe how arrogant he is" she jumped quickly to another topic, one Itachi would rather leave well alone.
"I can't imagine having a brother like that"
Itachi let out a soundless sigh and sat beside his fiancee.
"Now you know how i feel so next time you won't be in such a hurry to meet my family"he said
Sakura snorted giving her best frowning face which wasn't any good when she was this delirious
"You didn't expect me to marry a guy whose family i have never met, besides i wanted to know what you were like around them"
"Happy now that you know"
Sakura laughed again.
"Very" she said as she rested her head on his shoulder her eyes fell close. Itachi knew she was not asleep because of her fluttering eyelashes.
"Did you mean what you said that time to your mother"She asked her low voice like music in the quiet night.
"What" Itachi asked looking down at her pink hair.
"That you were going to try and get along with your brother"
Itachi looked away to the window and a memory came to him, one he prayed to forget but then he sighed.
"Yes, for as long as we are here atleast and i hope that won't be for long"
Sakura smiled
"I think you handled him well today" she said. Raising her head her green eyes settled on Itachi and the man turned to return the look. She touched his face as if in awe.
"I know i should probably act as a proper fiancee and tell you to forgive and accept your brother for who he is but i don't like how you look around him" she said
"Oh, then we can go back tomorrow then?"
"Not so fast"She said with a laugh"I want to get to know your mother and father and your brother even though he is a jerk. After all, if you are really serious about marrying me they are going to be my family too"
"Of course i am" he said and pulled her close pressing a kiss to her pink lips.
"There is no one else for me"
"I hope so" she said and pulled Itachi closer kissing him back. After a while of make out session Itachi pulled away and they shared a look before Itachi slowly tried to kiss her again.
"Wow is that- the time"Sakura said breaking the mood.
Itachi looked back at the alarm clock seating on the nightstand it was past two in the morning
"Okay" Sakura said pushing at Itachi's chest to get him to move aside"I think i ve stayed up long enough"
"Says the nurse who works a eighteen hour shift" Itachi replied as he moved away.
"Get out i don't work that long" she shoved him playfully with a smile but a yawn broke out instead.
"Okay i get it you need your rest" Itachi said amused and his fiancee just smiled happily. Itachi kissed her on her head before telling her goodnight and leaving the room.
As he shut the door behind he turned left only to meet dark eyes. It shocked the hell out of him he almost jumped right out of his skin.
"Ah Sai-kun" he said when he recognized the boy before him.
"What are you doing here"
"Working"
Was the only response.
"Well, can you work with noise" Itachi asked still unnerved by the boys continual presence.
"Maybe" he replied with one word again but suddenly his face relaxed and an emotionless smile that serve to freak out Itachi even more took place on the boys lips.
"Welcome home Itachi-san"he said.
"Thanks"
they stared at eachother neither knowing what to say to the other.
"Um goodnight then" Itachi broke the silence and started to his left turning his back to Sai. Then it suddenly occured to him turning back he said"By the way Sai i thought you no longer worked here" but his words only met the air because Sai had disappeared.
Itachi suffered a moment of stupidity when he thought for a moment that Sai was a ghost and that the Uchiha mansion was haunted but then shook his head of the the stupid thought and continued on to his room.
Sasuke sat back on his armed chair in his study his laptop was on and he was going through the information Sai had given to him. There was not much dirt on his brother's fiancee, she was squeaky clean except for a brother who was arrested for drugs there was nothing else. Her parents were well off and she has been living a just life before She met Itachi. To Sasuke she was a perfect wife for his brother but if that was the case Sasuke's fun would be squashed, besides no one was that clean without something suspicious hanging around.
Ring Ring!
His phone vibrated on his desk and a glance showed the words 'Dobe' on his screen. A smile touched his lips as he picked his phone and pushed the green button.
"Hello" he said
"Sasuke! IS THAT YOU!" the Dobe shouted so loud Sasuke had to take the phone away from his ear.
"Stop shouting Dobe, just because i'm faraway from london does not mean i can't hear you over the phone"
"WHAT!"
Sasuke sighed exhausted from just a few seconds talking to the idiot. The sound of music and loud people drifted from the background.
"Where are you and who the hell calls at 2 in the morning" Sasuke raised his voice a bit.
"Where else would i be but at school, its late evening over here" Naruto said
"Then what's that noise"
"WHAT!"
"That annoying noise what is it" Sasuke raised his voice again at this rate he would end up waking the everyone in the household.
Idiot.
"Oh Kiba is holding a party called the Bastard Is Gone" The blonde replied the noise suddenly died down a little telling Sasuke that the blonde had moved away from the noise.
"Huh, you are had better not be doing that in my apartment"
"Yeah thanks for leaving me the keys"
"Wha-"
a glass object shattered in the background.
"Naruto, what was that sound! Naruto you fool you better not break anything in that apartment"Sasuke said annoyed how dare that freeloading idiot treat his favour like this.
"Relax Sasuke it was nothing important" The blonde replied with a grin, Sasuke could tell he was grinning over the phone.
"Damn you Naruto everything is important in that apartment if you break anything there you are paying for it, do you have any idea how much those things cost by the way even if you take eleven part-time jobs you won't be able to pay for it" Sasuke ranted into the phone.
"Wow teme you are suddenly talking so much are you sure that's okay for your health" Naruto teased.
"Fool"
"By the way hows Home" Naruto asked
Sasuke sighed deeply and relaxed into his chair letting the blonde take his mind off his soon to be ruined apartment.
"It's been brilliant, my brother hasn't changed as much as i thought he would, the only downer now is the fiancee he brought home with him but then again, that might not be much of a problem it might actually be useful."
Naruto snorted.
"I can't believe you went all the way home just so you could annoy your brother, you really are one fucked up dude if you were my brother i would beat the crap out of you everyday" he said.
"When it comes to fighting Naruto You are no where near my level "
"you wanna bet"
"It won't matter because you are two far away"
"How about online, we could play Savage "
"Naruto i ve beaten you in that game 27 times already" Sasuke said with exasperated fondness.
"But i have learnt a new move you haven't seen yet" Naruto whined
"oh really, you think you can beat me because of that"
"Oh yeah"
"I'm a little too old for this though" Sasuke reasoned outloud
"Oh come on Sasuke, no one gets too old for games"
I probably shouldn't follow his logic since he his an idiot after all and i might get idiot slim rubbed off on me but i should just hand his ass out to him so he would know his place, Sasuke thought then smiled.
"Alright"
"Great!"
Naruto sounded so happy it made Sasuke wonder if the blonde missed him. After all a party was obviously going on right now and yet the blonde called him just to talk to him and play stupid online games.
"I wonder...." Sasuke said to himself.
"What?" Naruto asked bringing the Uchiha boy back to him.
"Oh nothing just log in"
"Okay, i'm logging in" Naruto announced
TO BE CONTINUED......

~Chapter Two
"Hello Aniki, Mother, Father" Sasuke said as he came out from under the shade the flowers created for him. His smile was downright cruel his eyes focused only on his brother even as he greeted everyone except for his brother's fiancee whom he didn't want to acknowledge.

Itachi refused to meet Sasuke's eyes after this and even when Sasuke tried to goad him into an arguement it didn't work, it was annoying.
As everyone left for their rooms Sasuke watch the two love birds hold hands and walk out together he was about to follow them when his father was suddenly in the way.
"Would you excuse me father"He said letting his irritation squeeze out through his voice.
"No you and i need to talk"Fugaku replied as he waved Sasuke back to his chair.
"I don't think there is anything we have to talk about father"Sasuke grumbled even as he sat back down.
"Sure you do,"Fugaku smile didn't reach his eyes"I'm not a fool Sasuke, i know what you ve been trying to do all night" he said
"I have no idea what you are talking about"Sasuke's best emotionless mask fell into place one that worked well when dealing with men like Fugaku hard headed and stupid.
"You remember why your brother left those years, your part in it? I won't have a repeat of it you hear me, if you know you can not be civil you might as well return back to london tomorrow."
Sasuke gritted his teeth. Why!
"You make it sound like it's all my fault"he replied.
"It is Sasuke."Fugaku said calmly.
Though Sasuke had always suspected that both his parents blamed him for what happened three years ago it was still a hard pill to swallow when it was said to his face but Sasuke refused to give Fugaku the pleasure of seeing his pain.
"Fine"He said as he got to his feet.

"I will do as you say"

The drapes were creamy white, the lights were turned low as soon as they entered and it gave the room a serene look. There was a huge three dimensional mirror by their left and after it the window with blue coloured curtains that were drawn. Also the rug was blue and they look soft enough to sleep on.
"Is this my room? I'm going to be sleeping here all by myself?"
Itachi smiled as he entered and closed the door.
"Yes of course, mother doesn't think it's appropriate for two unmarried people to share a room."Itachi replied.

"You didn't expect me to marry a guy whose family i have never met, besides i wanted to know what you were like around them"
"Happy now that you know"
Sakura laughed again.
"Very" she said as she rested her head on his shoulder her eyes fell close. Itachi knew she was not asleep because of her fluttering eyelashes.
"Did you mean what you said that time to your mother"She asked her low voice like music in the quiet night.
"What" Itachi asked looking down at her pink hair.
"That you were going to try and get along with your brother"
Itachi looked away to the window and a memory came to him, one he prayed to forget but then he sighed.
"Yes, for as long as we are here atleast and i hope that won't be for long"
Sakura smiled
"I think you handled him well today" she said. Raising her head her green eyes settled on Itachi and the man turned to return the look. She touched his face as if in awe.
"I know i should probably act as a proper fiancee and tell you to forgive and accept your brother for who he is but i don't like how you look around him" she said
"Oh, then we can go back tomorrow then?"
"Not so fast"She said with a laugh"I want to get to know your mother and father and your brother even though he is a jerk. After all, if you are really serious about marrying me they are going to be my family too"
"Of course i am" he said and pulled her close pressing a kiss to her pink lips.
"There is no one else for me"
"I hope so" she said and pulled Itachi closer kissing him back. After a while of make out session Itachi pulled away and they shared a look before Itachi slowly tried to kiss her again.
"Wow is that- the time"Sakura said breaking the mood.
Itachi looked back at the alarm clock seating on the nightstand it was past two in the morning
"Okay" Sakura said pushing at Itachi's chest to get him to move aside"I think i ve stayed up long enough"
"Says the nurse who works a eighteen hour shift" Itachi replied as he moved away.
"Get out i don't work that long" she shoved him playfully with a smile but a yawn broke out instead.
"Okay i get it you need your rest" Itachi said amused and his fiancee just smiled happily. Itachi kissed her on her head before telling her goodnight and leaving the room.
As he shut the door behind he turned left only to meet dark eyes. It shocked the hell out of him he almost jumped right out of his skin.
"Ah Sai-kun" he said when he recognized the boy before him.
"What are you doing here"
"Working"
Was the only response.
"Well, can you work with noise" Itachi asked still unnerved by the boys continual presence.
"Maybe" he replied with one word again but suddenly his face relaxed and an emotionless smile that serve to freak out Itachi even more took place on the boys lips.
"Welcome home Itachi-san"he said.
"Thanks"
they stared at eachother neither knowing what to say to the other.
"Um goodnight then" Itachi broke the silence and started to his left turning his back to Sai. Then it suddenly occured to him turning back he said"By the way Sai i thought you no longer worked here" but his words only met the air because Sai had disappeared.
Itachi suffered a moment of stupidity when he thought for a moment that Sai was a ghost and that the Uchiha mansion was haunted but then shook his head of the the stupid thought and continued on to his room.
Sasuke sat back on his armed chair in his study his laptop was on and he was going through the information Sai had given to him. There was not much dirt on his brother's fiancee, she was squeaky clean except for a brother who was arrested for drugs there was nothing else. Her parents were well off and she has been living a just life before She met Itachi. To Sasuke she was a perfect wife for his brother but if that was the case Sasuke's fun would be squashed, besides no one was that clean without something suspicious hanging around.
Ring Ring!
His phone vibrated on his desk and a glance showed the words 'Dobe' on his screen. A smile touched his lips as he picked his phone and pushed the green button.
"Hello" he said
"Sasuke! IS THAT YOU!" the Dobe shouted so loud Sasuke had to take the phone away from his ear.
"Stop shouting Dobe, just because i'm faraway from london does not mean i can't hear you over the phone"
"WHAT!"
Sasuke sighed exhausted from just a few seconds talking to the idiot. The sound of music and loud people drifted from the background.
"Where are you and who the hell calls at 2 in the morning" Sasuke raised his voice a bit.
"Where else would i be but at school, its late evening over here" Naruto said
"Then what's that noise"
"WHAT!"
"That annoying noise what is it" Sasuke raised his voice again at this rate he would end up waking the everyone in the household.
Idiot.
"Oh Kiba is holding a party called the Bastard Is Gone" The blonde replied the noise suddenly died down a little telling Sasuke that the blonde had moved away from the noise.
"Huh, you are had better not be doing that in my apartment"
"Yeah thanks for leaving me the keys"
"Wha-"
a glass object shattered in the background.
"Naruto, what was that sound! Naruto you fool you better not break anything in that apartment"Sasuke said annoyed how dare that freeloading idiot treat his favour like this.
"Relax Sasuke it was nothing important" The blonde replied with a grin, Sasuke could tell he was grinning over the phone.
"Damn you Naruto everything is important in that apartment if you break anything there you are paying for it, do you have any idea how much those things cost by the way even if you take eleven part-time jobs you won't be able to pay for it" Sasuke ranted into the phone.
"Wow teme you are suddenly talking so much are you sure that's okay for your health" Naruto teased.
"Fool"
"By the way hows Home" Naruto asked
Sasuke sighed deeply and relaxed into his chair letting the blonde take his mind off his soon to be ruined apartment.
"It's been brilliant, my brother hasn't changed as much as i thought he would, the only downer now is the fiancee he brought home with him but then again, that might not be much of a problem it might actually be useful."
Naruto snorted.
"I can't believe you went all the way home just so you could annoy your brother, you really are one fucked up dude if you were my brother i would beat the crap out of you everyday" he said.
"When it comes to fighting Naruto You are no where near my level "
"you wanna bet"
"It won't matter because you are two far away"
"How about online, we could play Savage "
"Naruto i ve beaten you in that game 27 times already" Sasuke said with exasperated fondness.
"But i have learnt a new move you haven't seen yet" Naruto whined
"oh really, you think you can beat me because of that"
"Oh yeah"
"I'm a little too old for this though" Sasuke reasoned outloud
"Oh come on Sasuke, no one gets too old for games"
I probably shouldn't follow his logic since he his an idiot after all and i might get idiot slim rubbed off on me but i should just hand his ass out to him so he would know his place, Sasuke thought then smiled.
"Alright"
"Great!"
Naruto sounded so happy it made Sasuke wonder if the blonde missed him. After all a party was obviously going on right now and yet the blonde called him just to talk to him and play stupid online games.
"I wonder...." Sasuke said to himself.
"What?" Naruto asked bringing the Uchiha boy back to him.
"Oh nothing just log in"
"Okay, i'm logging in" Naruto announced
