Title: Fallen
Summary: Slightly AU (ItaKaka or KakaIta) One who fell, the other about to fall. Falling into… their own shadow. (implied 'yaoi', shounen-ai, and a darkish theme?).
Author: One Who Rides On The Wind
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, or any of its characters.
Claimer: I own my poem/lyric thing.
Rating: T… or maybe M?
Genre: Angst/Romance
Author notes: This is my favourite shounen-ai/yaoi pairing, even if the chances of them to get together is less than one; almost zero percent. Almost completely different to what I usually write, probably because I've been very depressed lately. No beta, so point out mistakes and criticise if you will.
-
He knew he had fallen through. Fallen through his old life, the life of purity and happiness. Since that one chapter of his life, he was not Uchiha Itachi. He was… a shadow of his former self.
-
Falling through your own death
It's fate worse than the end
Your soul disappears
But your shadow lingers on
-
Grasping him, hanging on, not wanting to let go… it was all the same to Uchiha Itachi. He didn't want to free the other ninja curled up in a corner, who was refusing to speak to him, though he didn't know why.
-
Your soul is greedy
Searching for more
You see another like you
Also about to fall
-
He glanced at his prey. The former ANBU's eyes were unfocused and blank, he clearly was trying to ignore the situation he was in. But Itachi obviously knew the Jounin knew that it was bleak.
-
He is like you but still different
He also knows it's hopeless
But still he persists
And tries hard to break away
-
Itachi pulled the other shinobi's face towards him so that they were making close eye contact. Kakashi didn't struggle and his one black eye, (the other closed) slowly gazed back into his captor's two Sharingan eyes.
-
Look into his eyes
But it doesn't make a difference
Your soul is still searching
Searching for an answer
-
Desperately trying to refuse his advances, Kakashi pushed away, hoping the Sharingan Akatsuki member would understand. Alas, the Uchiha ignored him, lifted the Konoha headband off and pulled down the mask the copy ninja always wore.
-
You want to know something
Are you the polar opposite of him?
Or are you two the same?
It is even unheard of to you
-
He looked at the face, in front of him and took in all the features. Skin, ever so slightly tanned, silvery grey hair falling into his two mismatched eyes; one dark onyx, and one that contained the Sharingan which his uncle used to have with a large scar crossing over it. A small curved mouth. But what caught his attention most was the emotion in his eyes. Cold determination, and anger but within the anger was trapped sadness, like no other the Uchiha had ever seen before. It… it was the same…
-
You see someone so unlike yourself
And think 'this person can't be similar to me'
Obviously you know the truth
Inside, you are just like him
-
Their eyes met and both felt an instant affinity with the other. Kakashi shivered, and not only of the cold. Itachi flushed for a second before regaining his normal cold composure.
-
That one will soon bring out you true self
But what can you do about it?
There isn't anything you can do to stop it
And you know it
-
The more he looked at the other man, the more the Uchiha wanted him. But he knew it most likely wasn't possible. He didn't show any sign of interest in him anyway. But it didn't really make much of a difference…
-
The mind works a wonder
But the heart is wise knowing all
You've also fallen through something else
Something almost unknown to you
-
Finally he made a decision. Itachi felt like questioning his own actions, nevertheless pulled the face towards him for a gentle kiss. Kakashi froze momentarily, but slowly and very lightly responded, not sure what the younger assassin had wanted.
-
Love, only love can make you feel like this
It creates happiness, joy and other things
Even if you don't know what you're doing
Love will find and show you the way
-
The kiss had deepened, and Itachi wrapped his arms around the legendary copy nin as his hands delicately roamed around the body against him. It lasted for quite a while, so when they at last let go, both gazed longingly into each other's eyes and relaxed. Kakashi's head on young assassin's shoulder, and Itachi's left hand around the older nin's waist.
-
Love is endless- a never ending circle
Over every one person you have cared about
Very deeply you know you love them too
Everyone- especially that one very particular person to you
-
No words were spoken, none were needed. The two shinobi rested like that for what felt like forever, but it didn't matter. As long as the two of them were together nothing would, except for each other.

Author notes: After I finished this fic, I re-read it and found something kinda funny. A free request of a one shot fic to the first person who finds what the hell I'm going on about. A hint: Look in the summary for a clue. I'll send the person who finds the answer an email containing the limits and what pairings I will and won't do. Review, anyone?
