I like drabbles but I am bad at writing. However, I ship Sasunaru hard so I shall write. t_t

Disclaimer: So um yeah... spoiler warning I guess 'cause most of this theoretically occurs after chapter 600 in the manga. Or in an AU. Also, I don't own Naruto. If I did, Naruto and Sasuke would live happily ever after and love each other forever. Yep.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes at Naruto. "Don't you ever do that to me again, dobe," he growled.

The possessive tone that the raven-haired boy used surprised Naruto. He opened his eyes slightly and winced as he turned his head towards him. The bed creaked under his movement, reminding him all too much of the injuries he sustained. Usually, Kurama's chakra would help speed up his healing process, but even the demon's chakra had been expended considerably in the last battle. Sasuke's calm, impassive demeanor had dissolved and he looked angry, almost agitated. His charcoal eyes, usually empty and cold, seemed to burn fiercely into his own.

"Because... I missed you."

"What?"

"I said, do you have enough pain medication in you?

"Oh.. uh. I think I'll be okay."

Naruto pretended he never heard Sasuke's confession, and smiled as best as he could at Sasuke to convince him he was fine. However, it didn't seem to have much effect. A sudden shot of pain decided to sear across his back in this moment, making him wince terribly.

"Dammit. Stop lying to me, dobe. I'm going to get Sakura."

Naruto watched reluctantly through a haze that began to develop over his vision at his friend's retreating back.

Naruto awoke to the smell of ramen wafting through the hair and to a new set of needles in his arm. He frowned.

"Here. I got you some ramen. I forgot what kind you liked, but the guy seemed to know who you were when I said your name."

Sasuke nearly shoved the bowl towards Naruto on the tray in front of him, spilling some of the soup onto the blonde's shirt.

Naruto snickered. "Liar. A new guy works there. He still doesn't remember my name." He grinned and winked, tapping his head with his knuckle slowly. "He's an amniosac."

"...You're so stupid. You can't even lie properly. Also, I'm pretty sure the same fat guy has been working there for the past 16 years."

"Hey! I'm just recovering... my head's not right... you know what I mea-"

"Just... eat. The. Fucking. Ramen. And stop being annoying." After a few seconds of uncertainty, Sasuke reluctantly muttered, "please."

"The nurse said not to curse around head trauma patients," Naruto chided. If looks could kill, Sasuke's current expression would be shooting daggers at him.

Obediently, Naruto began slurping up the ramen. Inwardly, he was grinning and rolling around laughing. He took a great (and rather sick) pleasure in pretending to not remember Sasuke to take advantage of him. It wasn't everyday he got to see the raven-haired Uchiha get whipped around like a little puppy and buying him ramen and feeling guilty. Okay, he did feel a little guilty, but... payback is such a bitch.

"Why do you keep visiting me if you find me so annoying, anyway?" Naruto muttered, hoping to coax Sasuke into confessing about his guilt and also repeating the "I'm-a-shitty-friend" speech, just for kicks.

Instantly, the Uchiha's gaze became suspicious.

Naruto froze.

"Keep visiting?" Sasuke questioned. "What do you mean?" His voice became dangerously curious. "I thought you were experienced amnesiac symptoms. "

Naruto rubbed the back of his head gently. "Haha... well, uh... great news! I remember everything from before now! Nurse said my memory might come back to me soon!"

Sasuke simply kept staring at him with a calm look on his face, blinking pointedly. "Hn... I see. And how long did you 'remember everything from before'?"

Naruto looked up at the ceiling and whistled. "Well uh... I guess maybe this morning..."

"This morning? ...You're such a teme." Sasuke sighed slowly.

Little did Naruto realize, as much as the blonde enjoyed being taken care of by Sasuke, he mutually enjoyed taking care of his friend. Sort of. Not that the Uchiha would ever admit this, of course. God forbid.

Naruto looked back at Sasuke, his expression more somber. "And just so you know...I missed you too."
