Itachi,

You were Fugaku's perfect son.

You know I never knew you witnessed a war when you were little. I never knew that you had witnessed something that might have fucked you up plenty (and probably did too). I never knew you had a lover you killed during that massacre. I knew hardly anything about you but of what I did know, was that Sasuke was extremely jealous of you.

I knew that Sasuke was jealous of how perfect your father saw you. You were his perfect little boy. He saw the clan's future in you didn't he? That's what Sasuke told me at some point. That made me laugh. Your father saw the clan's future in you, and to think the clan ended with only you and Sasuke.

Wouldn't that be called irony? I wouldn't know, never did that well at the academy and didn't care unless it helped me prove my worth. Either way it didn't matter because it was before everything, before you murdered everyone under the order's of Konoha.

Fugaku believed in loyalty, especially to the clan, and you were such a loyal son until that day, and he probably thought of you as a loyal son the day you killed him. Probably. After all not only were you the perfect son, but you were something else too.

You were Konoha's perfect Shinobi.

I've read files on you, y'know, about missions you'd done as a Shinobi for Konoha. The elders, I think they think they'd burned them because they were hidden away gathering dust. It was easy enough to find them; I was the only one to have gone in that shed for a long time. I was the only one who had defaced the 4th Hokage's face enough to get stuck with cleaning this shed.

I remember looking at one of the scrolls and laughing, oh how badly I could not imagine that happening. You were sent on a cat finding mission, much like the ones I had to do sometimes, I think it might have been one of your first. It wrote a lot of bad things about you.

Honestly Itachi, how many people jump up and down screaming ‘oh kitty get here I have milk’, honestly I can not believe you said that, but the scroll said you did, it said a lot of other things too, but I don't think I have time for all of them.

There is one other one I like, this one’s a little bit better though, well I though it was better, I mean how many times can someone read, Uchiha Itachi apparent perfect everything fails a class because he slept through it, and yet you got top marks, all because the bastards love you, you know why they loved you?

You were the academy's perfect student.

Never before had they met a student quite like you. Always top of the class, always getting everything right except for that one time, but hey, when you have a little brother who goes and tells you the wrong time for your class you can't help it. You still got all the marks though.

Everyone adored you at that place, even when I went, you'd always hear the odd comment 'oh if only Itachi was a good lad, he was my fav-' no one would get past there before Sasuke would kick up a fuss, of course he was perfect like you except I think you might have been more perfect.

I don't know why Sasuke was so jealous of seeing how popular and great you were for a student. I mean he was kind of like you, he got top grades and besides before the massacre happened and even after it you were secretly something else.

You were Sasuke's perfect brother.

Even if Sasuke didn't know it, you were. You did everything for him. There are only so many times a child can argue against their father, especially when said father is head of the clan, just because of your little brother, but I bet Sasuke never knew how much you did it for him.

I know that it was you that persuaded Fugaku to go to Sasuke's entrance ceremony in the academy. He'd do anything for you, I don't know if Sasuke knows, but hey, you made Sasuke's day that day, I know how happy I would have been to have everyone in my family waving at me.

I wonder, did Sasuke think of all that when he was on his 'murder Itachi' mission? I bet he didn't. If he did, he never would have started the mission I don't think...I wish I had an older brother to do that for me, or maybe a younger one too. I mean I probably could, maybe I do, because I have no clue as to who my parents are, but I don't care. You know what sitting about family and friends, I was told something about you not too long ago.

You were Shisui's perfect friend.

He was your best friend wasn't he, before everything that happened. I bet you did everything together, I was told you did, I found it kind of strange, I don't know why, maybe because of how happy you were as friends, I mean me and Sasuke, yeah we're best friend's, but you know we fight loads. I wonder if you and Shisui were like that.

I wonder, I don;t know much about you and him, in fact I only know what I heard so I don't even know if it's true, but I heard you chased a cart down the street, because you had put Sasuke in it accidentally or something. That would explain so much.

I heard another story too, and this is one I can't believe. This one was on a memory scroll as well don't know why though, you're sitting next to me asleep and I write all these things out. I can't believe i'm doing this to you, because well, yeah because.

You were Akatsuki's perfect liar.

You always acted as though you were on their side. You always came after me and said they creepy words, ' I've come for you Naruto, blah, blah, blah' seriously, you need to pick better words. I was beginning to think, scary you want to 'sex' me, and then I thought I was beginning to sound like one Haruno Sakura.

In fact, after you defected from Akatsuki, you annoyed me so much. You ran off so you could go be a suicidal ass hole and 'repent' for your fucking sins by being an even bigger ass hole and letting Sasuke 'murder' you, which you did a splendid job in acting by the way.

You know, i'm not making you out a good liar for Akatsuki am I? You were the perfect liar to Akatsuki, but not for them, well I suppose you were sometimes,after all you had to lie and worm your way into their inner sanctum. (heh because that group was a holy place che). Whereever the hell that was at the time.

But you know what pissed me off about you? You were perfect in everything and I wanted to find something you weren't perfect at. I tried everything, especially after you turned up hiding at my apartment. My apartment, you bastard, you could have gotten me thrown out of my dream, but somehow, during my search to find something imperfect about you, I found out another perfect thing.

You were my perfect lover.

I don't even know why I let you sleep in this bed next to me. My butt is swore, you're a bastard, you are rough, I hate you half way to hell, but you make me feel so good, so nice and so cared for and loved. That was something Sasuke was never able to do.

He tried, trust me, he tried badly, but he tried. Several times he lured me into that wretched house of yours (by yours I mean the Uchiha's) determined to make me his, or whatnot. Several times his fucking dick came within an inch of my hole before I knocked him through a wall or a door.

I don't even know how you never got caught until this point, mind you its good you lasted until this point. It’s good I am Hokage now and we can lie here without fear of someone finding out about you. It's good how I can watch you sleep, because you look so peaceful.

I really love you Uchiha Itachi, but you're too perfect for me. I don't know how I am meant to love someone so perfect, it's impossible. I can't live up to your perfections. I'm not worth your time, but you know I think you knew I was feeling like this, writing a letter as to why we can't be together.

You want to know why, because you left me a letter too I am so stupid, you must have wrote it after you fucked me into a sleep.. or made love, you preferred that word didn't you? I can't believe you are so perfect you even saw how worried I was getting about how perfect you are.

Looking at the letter I can happily say though. I do love you and we can we together forever and always, do you know why? Of course you do you wrote why idiot. God I might wake you up just to ride you, you make me so horny when you do stuff to make me feel special. You know what you wrote on that little piece of paper?

I'm not your perfect enemy.
