        You wrapped your cold hand tightly around Sasuke's and huddled closer to him as you walked to the cafe. Snow heavily fell in large flakes from a grey sky, quickly accumulating on everything unprotected.

"Wh–Why did w–we have t–to volunteer to – today, S – S – Sasuke?" you stuttered past your chattering teeth. You shook as a cold wind pushed past you, biting through the coat and sweater you had on.

"I didn't think it was going to be this –" Sasuke paused as another wind blew and took his breath away. "Cold. Or snowing. But at least it's over and we can go home."

"A – After we get s – something w – warm, of co – course," you added with a small smirk.

Sasuke chuckled and nodded, "Of course."

He tugged you across the cross walk and into the corner cafe. As soon as you opened the door, the bell above it rang and the welcoming scent of hot coffee and fresh cake greeted you, as well as a wave of warmth. You and Sasuke walked up to the counter and you noticed only two people working, not that a lot was needed on a day like that, since there weren't a lot of people out and about. One worker was a roller skating waitress in black slacks and a white polo, the other was Sasuke's brother - Itachi. He smiled as he noticed you two, then casually leaned on the counter.

"Hey, [Name]! Hey little brother!" Itachi happily greeted, tossing a little wave.

"H – Hey," you stuttered, unlatching your numb fingers from Sasuke's and fumbling with your pocket to get to your money.

"Hey, Itachi," Sasuke greeted, then looked at you. "You don't need to pay, hun, I've got you."

Your eyes widened and your bottom lip poked out, "B – But –!" You felt bad, Sasuke always paid. Even when you said you had the bill, he would pay. Sasuke chuckled and leaned to your level.

"You're cute – but you're still not paying. Just worrying about getting that hot body of yours warm." You blushed as he kissed you before turning back to towards the counter. "So what would you like?"

You ordered then went over to stand by the electric fireplace that heated the cafe. You held your hands near it, just wanting to feel your fingers again. After a few moments Sasuke joined you and wrapped his arms around your waist, nuzzling his chilly face in the crook of your neck; you shivered as his icy nose touched your warm skin. He chuckled, sending additional chills down your spine. You sighed and snuggled back into his chest; you couldn't wait to get home so you and he could cuddle. A few minutes later your beverages were done and the two of you went to get Sasuke's car, which he had parked on the side of the building.

However, unbeknownst to you, the events witnessed by the older Uchiha concerning you and his brother drove him insane. He tried not to break the small porcelain espresso he was cleaning as he thought of you and Sasuke together. Ever since Sasuke brought you home to meet the family, Itachi had been plagued by more than friendly thoughts of you. At first he tried to deny it but, the more he tried, the deeper he sank into the abyss. Eventually, his existence only thrived from one of your visits to the next. Then you and Sasuke got your own house and Itachi's world shattered.

The times he saw you grew less and less frequent and your face began to plague him more and more. Soon enough Itachi began to yearn for you. He yearned for you scent, which tainted every seat you sat in and the sheets you slept in; although your scent was usually mingled with Sasuke's – whether you were sleeping in the guest room or not. He yearned for your voice, which always happily greeted him and joked sarcastically with him and his family. Itachi yearned for your touch, which surprised him every time the two of you would accidentally brush and he missed how you felt in his arms when you hugged him.
