The outstretched hands left Sasuke torn. He stared at them, unsure how to handle that gesture coming from his brother. Showing affection wasn't one of his strong points, and even being able to share it with Itachi still didn't seem real.
But Itachi wasn't pulling away from him. He didn't seem revolted by what was going on. Sasuke shifted, ignoring the dwindling pain for the time being as he found his way onto his hands and knees. The movement was rather catlike without him meaning it to be. Eyes focused on the man in the dark, watching his body language.
No matter what you become...
It was half a pounce when it happened. There was no one else around to see it but them, so what did it matter? Sasuke wrapped his arms around his brother and buried his face into his shoulder, breaths shaky.
