Summary
Itachi gingerly places his hand atop Sasuke’s and asks in a kind voice, “Why did you kiss me?"
"Because.” He stops for a hairsplitting second, looks up at him and how the night sky cradles his head and his black hair. “Because when you were bandaging my wounds it felt like my skin would melt, even if you acted like your slightest touch would burn me. Don’t think I didn’t notice, but what you didn’t seem to realize was that I wanted to burn at that moment, Itachi.” Sasuke licks his lips and whispers, “Still do."
There was an implicit don’t reject me thrown underneath the actual statement. His little brother’s eyes are alight with hope when Itachi doesn’t turn away from him as if this was permission to kiss him again and again.
