Author's Notes: I decided to post short related one-shots about Sasuke and Naruto's relationship revolving in one way or another to their nights together. Some will be more humorous while others will sway towards the hurt/comfort category, all the while being very fluffy/romantic in nature.

Since these are technically "one-shots", they can all be read separately or as a whole. Enjoy! :)

Sleepless Nights

By: Silverceil

Sasuke stared up at the familiar white ceiling of the room and closed his eyes. He could still feel the numbing pain near his ribs where he remembered being stabbed a few hours ago, but the ebbing sensation wasn't really what kept him awake. He just couldn't sleep.

Heaving a sigh, he tried turning to his side, but stopped as pain shot down his spine at the movement. Giving up on comfort, the raven shifted back onto his back and almost grumbled in frustration. It was during lonely nights like this that he missed the company of a certain blond the most, that he wished he could feel his warm arms wrapped around his waist before drifting off to sleep. It wasn't that he was overly romantic, god forbid his Uchiha-ness would never allow it, but he had slowly come to depend on the blond, to trust him and love him.

A ruffling of cloth was suddenly heard near the window and he quickly reached his hand out for a kunai, only to grimace as the action pulled at his wound. Blinking back the pain, he turned to see cerulean blue eyes staring back at him.

"What are you doing?" he gasped before relaxing back into the hospital bed.

A smile curled up the blond's lips, "Sneaking in."

Sasuke almost smiled back. "What's wrong with the door?"

Naruto jumped inside and rubbed the back of his neck. "Well," he began. "You weren't supposed to notice."

Sasuke snorted, "Because you weren't making it obvious."

The blond zeroed in and made an action to hit the raven before stopping and putting his fist down. The slight pout that graced his lips made Sasuke feel like kissing it away. His fingers itched to ruffle the soft blond locks, but he knew he couldn't move, so he sighed. "Why are you here?" he finally asked.

A broad grin lit Naruto's face, "To bother you."

"You're doing a great job."

"Good to know," said the blond as he moved to climb into the bed with him, carefully shifting his weight to minimize movement before settling down next to his partner. Glancing down at Sasuke, Naruto leaned in on his elbows and smiled, "You know what I missed the most?" he finally said.

Sasuke looked up and raised an eyebrow at him, "Do tell."

"This," said Naruto before carefully wrapping his arms around the raven's waist.

"You missed potentially killing me?" Sasuke couldn't help pointing out; though he was glad the blond had been cautious. He felt Naruto stiffen for a second before relaxing and felt the blond rest his chin on his head.

A few moments passed before he heard Naruto speak again, "I missed being with you."

Dark eyes softened at the words and he reached his hand out to pull the blankets to cover the blond before leaning up to kiss Naruto's waiting lips.

"Me too," he whispered and snuggled his face into the warmth of the blond's neck, feeling his lover shiver at the touch.

If he was to stay awake until Naruto made his way to his bedside every time, Sasuke figured he'd gladly spend sleepless nights waiting for his rowdy blond.
