Sasuke stared at Naruto's sleeping form. Occasionally Sasuke secretly checked on his former teammate, just to make sure the dumb bastard didn't get in to too much trouble. The blonde idiot looked…peaceful. It was something Sasuke rarely ever saw when he was still part of the village. Naruto was always revved up or worn out, but now…
It almost made Sasuke want to go back. Too much time had passed though; it was much too late to consider it. Though...That didn't mean Sasuke couldn't fantasize. He couldn't help it; he's been through too much to be perfectly sane. His brother made sure of that. He wouldn't be good for the blonde if he did go back, but that didn't keep him from faltering slightly at the soft skin and light blue eyes of his former teammate. He was the only one that didn't either hate him or swoon over his surname. Sure, they had a rivalry, but that didn't mean Naruto hated him…He might now, in fact Sasuke hoped he did. It would be much simpler for both of them. Sasuke sighed, huffing loudly as he stepped past Naruto, he didn't have time to stay any longer, or at least that was what he was telling himself. In reality, if he stayed any longer he might not leave when Naruto woke up.
"…Sasuke…" Naruto whispered sleepily, grabbing on to Sasuke's pant leg as he stepped near him. The raven almost lurched out of his skin, looking around desperately to figure out how to escape this dire situation as Naruto's hold became more constricting. Then…The most surprising thing escaped the blonde's lips:
"Break my heart, but don't leave me…" Naruto yawned, letting go of Sasuke for a brief enough moment that the raven could slip away. Sasuke gave one last wistful glance at Naruto before disappearing into the trees.
I'm sorry Naruto. Some things can never be.
End.
