| Part 14 |

Sasuke steps out of the car at the same time as you. He looks at how amazed you looked and assumed that everything was just fine "Here we are" You kept looking at the house at how huge it looked from where you were. How could someone live in this huge house and not get lost? It's like a maze or something "I-It's... beautiful, you live in this?" He just loved the facial expression that you had on your face. You had that dumbfounded face that he found kinda cute after a while "I do and today I have the whole mansion for myself"

You didn't exactly know how to explain what you were feeling at the moment. You recently just met him and just being brought here like it was normal is just random, what if paparazzi just suddenly pops up and just creates fake news on us or something. You looked down a bit then back at him "T-That's great" You faked smile, you didn't want Sasuke to worry about you. "Let me show you around" He holds out his hand for you to take. You hesitated at first to do so but ended up doing it anyway "Right"

···

Once you arrived inside, you started to look around. It was super spacious, the decoration was looking fancy, the furniture and everything else was modern and in good condition. With all of this in sight, you started to feel uncomfortable and uneasy "This place is... Huge, I-" Sasuke notices that change in your voice, it became slow as if you were hesitating to say something. Were you uncomfortable with all of this? "What's wrong?"

He asked you as you started to frown a bit. It's cool and all being in a huge and fancy house but you thought that something simple would be best. He notices that something's not right which is why he lead her to the couch in order to talk things out "Something is obviously wrong, what is it?" You go to sit down then would look away "I kinda feel...small around you"

He sighs "I knew this would be too much, I'm sorry" You started to wave your hands in panick, you didn't want him to think that it was a bad idea "N-No, it's okay. You just wanted things to be just right along with making a good impression of yourself" He grins at you, your response made things easier for him along with clearing the air. Now he knows that he can trust you "Yeah, I actually wanted to show you who I really am outside of being famous, I know that I can trust you"

'The real him? Well, that seems interesting' You seemed intrigued by that part of him that you somehow wouldn't mind to know at all "Oh?" You grin wanting him to proceed "I'd like to get to know that Sasuke" Sasuke pushes himself up from the couch then holds out his hand for you to grab. You look at his hand then smile at him, you take his hand as he helps you up "Follow me then" You nod at him "Lead the way"

You follow Sasuke out the living room, wondering where he could possibly take you. His house was super huge and it looked like a maze so you could easily get lost in here. He's the only one that can actually lead the way and not get lost. While you were admiring the place you see that he led you towards some sort of room with instruments, a music room? Since when did he like music, I thought that he was a model.

"Wow, I didn't know you liked music?" You questioned him with somewhat an amused look on your face "Well yeah, this is where I feel more comfortable" He made his way down the room choosing between the different instruments in the room. I watched him do so, this room can't possibly be the only room he likes. "What about the other rooms?" You asked out of mere curiosity, the other rooms looked just as normal as the others. He looked like he was hesitating to actually say something about, Did something happen that he doesn't want to talk about? "Don't worry about it"

"Alright then" You decided shrug it off you shoulders and let it slide for now "Let's see what kind of instruments you have here" As you said that you started to walk through the room swiping your fingers on each one of the instruments, You notice that there was a piano. You jump in joy at the sight of it, It reminded you of your old memories when you were younger so you decided to go and sit down on the stool.

"You play piano?" The Uchiha asked as he looking over at you. The Piano was an instrument that you always loved until something tragic happened. Till that day, you stopped playing for your very own sake. "I used to until...It doesn't really matter" You shot your gaze away from him, you were still sensitive about it. He seemed pretty concerned for your well-being all of a sudden so he went to go sit next to you "Until what?" You ignored the question with your silence as you strummed your fingers on the piano keys.

He immediately understood why you were silent, his curiosity was triggered but he didn't want you to feel uncomfortable around him "You don't have to tell me if you don't want too" You had no intention on telling him about your past, you had trust issues so you weren't going to open up any time soon. With that, you started to play the piano, you played a small melody that your father used to play for you and your mother.

You memorized the exact notes and played it just like how your father did. He watched her play somewhat fascinated "What are you playing?" I didn't look up at him, I kept my orbs on the keys and nothing else "It's just a small song my father used to play, I remember it like it was yesterday" You couldn't help but hum to the melody like you were in some sort of trance 'Man, she's way out of my league' The Uchiha thought while admiring your work. "I see"

A small flash back suddenly played in your mind, it was a memory of you and your parents

– Flash Back

Years ago when you were just a kid, you lived in a house where only you and your parents lived and no one else. You didn't have any siblings even if you'd love to have some. One day it was night and your mother was putting you to sleep, she was singing you a small lullaby that you loved and would always want to listen to. Your mother's voice made you feel like you were in heaven, you used to imagine yourself dancing with little angels in heaven while the lullaby was playing in the background.

Au clair de la Lune

Mon ami Pierrot

Prête-moi ta plume

Pour écrire un mot

Ma chandelle est morte

Je n'ai plus de feu

Ouvre-moi ta porte

Pour l'amour de Dieu

A/N: This is a french lullaby btw, I'll add a translation under

In the moonlight

My friend Pierrot

Lend me your pen

To write a word

My candle is dead

I do not have any more fire

Open up your door

For God's sake

—

Once you fell asleep your mother would kiss your forehead then would leave the room. During the night a weird smell would wake you up during the night, you opened your eyes to see smoke and your parents next to you just laying there. The smoke started to intoxicate you making you cough each second. You looked around the room to see what was making the smoke to realise that it was pills causing it.

You tried to wake up your parents but it was to no avail, they looked like they were lifeless bodies ready to be cremated. All of this shocked you to the point that you started to have a panic attack, you tried to get out the room from the front door but it was blocked from the outside so you tried the window pulling it with all your force. You felt weak, unable to use your strength to pull it open. Finally after a couple of attempts, you were able to open the window. You climbed out of the window letting yourself fall down into the bushes while coughing your lungs out.

The sound of sirens caught your attention to see that the fire fighters were there! You slowly but surely got out of the bushes then made your way towards them with panic written all over your face. The fire fighters took you in once seeing you walking to them in panic while coughing.

– End of Flash Back

Tears made their way down your cheeks by such a flash back when you suddenly stopped playing and got up from the stool immediately using your hands as support to help you up. Sasuke noticed that you were somehow crying which he looked confused about, he also got up trying to figure out what was going on "(Y/n), what's wrong?" You didn't respond but instead started to shed into tears.

He wanted to comfort you so he decided to take you into a hug but you refused it– you pushed him away, you ran over to one of the windows as your panic meter increased enormously. You couldn't seem to open the window just like in your flash back. 'What's going on with her!?' He thought feeling super concerned and most likely worried.

After a couple of tries trying to open the window, you successfully opened it as you pushed your head out inhaling the fresh air sightly coughing in the process with watery eyes. You shot your head down low feeling yourself calm down little by little. Now that he saw that you were calming down, he made his way towards you "W-What the hell just happened!?"

You started wipe your tears with the back of your hand but they kept coming back "I-" He cut you off with a tight hug and a kiss on the head "I-It's okay, just calm down, tell me when you feel better" you looked at him surprised and shocked and on top of that you didn't expect him to kiss your head, it made your cheeks burn up at that. "I-I just-...flash back" You said while choking in your words

"A flash back? What do you mean?" He asked softly while gently rubbing your back in order to comfort, sooth you. You looked down. "I-I'm sorry...I-I worried you..with my panic attack"

"What are you sorry about?" questioned the Uchiha.

You looked up at him to see him smile at you, you couldn't help but redden "F-For worrying you and shutting you down...when you wanted to help me. I-I...don't want to remember my past" He pulls her away a bit just to take one of your hands in his left and his other hand on your cheek cupping it "No need to apologize. As long as you're okay, it's all that matters" You looked at him with a small blush, you felt comfortable somehow like this.

You also placed your hand on top of his gripping it as you then closed your eyes afterwards 'I feel so calm and comfortable around him...It's relieving' He sees the blush on your cheeks then looks away a bit also blushes. He wondered how your life was before. You slowly open your eyes once again feeling much better than earlier "Thank you for comforting me" A small smile made it's way on your lips, it was faint though.

He kept his gaze on you slightly biting his lower lip in the process "Oh well, n-no problem" You'd move his hand away from your cheek but you still had his hand in yours "You're really strong, ya know that?" He gripped onto your hand tightly. You didn't understand what he meant by strong , you've been feeling weak and depressed for years. "What do you mean?"

"I don't exactly know what you've been through, I can see that it wasn't really that great but you somewhat still manage to smile" stated the Uchiha. He was right on some point, your past wasn't as pretty but your still managed to live on with it still having a smile on your face. You grinned at his remark "Maybe you just make me smile, who knows?"

"Then I'll make sure to make you smile everyday" He was up for it no matter what, it was now his duty to keep it that way. You giggle at that "If it's what you want then go ahead" You started to fiddle with your fingers playing around with them "Come on, you must be hungry. I'll make you something" Once hearing the word hungry you shot your gaze up at him. You didn't know that he could cook "You know how to cook?"

You keep learning new things about him each second, you couldn't help but smile "Of course I do" You couldn't wait to test it out for yourself "Well then, lead the way" With that, He took your hand then led you out the room. Looks like he'll be keeping that smile on your face for god knows when
