Love & Truth

1. The End, The Beginning

Naruto watched the battle in front of him. He still could not believe, that he saw the man before him. That he appeared here, was like a miracle itself.

Naruto watched the raven-haired man, who just cut off the masked man's head. Everyone chanted for him. No one wanted punishments for him at that moment. It was the time to celebrate.

Because it was over.

The battle between two last Uchihas was over.

The shinobi war has ended.

Naruto stood only few steps behind the victorious Uchiha Sasuke when that happened. It should have been him. He was the one who was supposed to finish this battle. Yet, when he was crucially wounded Uchiha appeared and shielded him.

He wondered about the irony of this situation.

'Valley of the End. Why here?'

It was just too odd. In the place, where he was almost killed, by his best friend, to be saved, by the very same person years later.

But thoughts like this still did not answer Naruto's main question.

'Why?'

That was what he thought as he caught the exhausted Uchiha, before falling off the edge.

'Why would he save me.'

As Naruto wondered about this, the raven squirmed a little, looking at the blonde.

„Hey dobe." he said.

„What is it Sasuke-teme?"

„I'm tired."

„I'd bet you are."

„Bring me home." the avenger mumbled.

Naruto only stared wide-eyed back at the man in amazement. Only to see him pass out seconds later.

He smiled at that. The prideful Uchiha actually shoved him a part of his weak side. When he took the exhausted man in his arms he thought about that, it made him feel special.

That was all he ever wanted to be for this raven.

Special.

'How much meaning can be put into one word?' Naruto thought.

At first he wanted to be special to someone. That was, when whole village hated him, when he was only the demon for them. A weapon at best. A monster at worst.

Back then Naruto met Iruka. It was from him, that he first got to know what parent's love may feel like. Iruka was the first one to look at him. Not at the fox sealed inside of his body.

But later on, Naruto met Sasuke. It was Sasuke, who made the Jinchuuriki realize, that he wanted a different kind of love also.

That he wanted someone to treat him in that special way. To be everything to someone. To mean the world, for only this one person.

He really wanted to take the first place in Sasuke's heart.

Naruto sighed and thought back on his feelings from few years ago.

'Really, to fight with the one you like is childish.'

Naruto sighed again as he still walked in the direction of Konoha's gates.

„Yeah Sasuke-teme, we are going home."

L&T

Two years and three months later

As Naruto sat on the bed he watched the sleeping raven sadly. He brushed a strand of black hair off the porcelain-like face and sighed.

'Must I really leave?'

Then he remembered Hokage's words and sighed again.

'Just when everything seemed so perfect... Life is cruel.'

He knew, however, that he will no longer be able to hide the truth from this man. The man whom he loved the most in the world. He knew, that he wouldn't be able to hide the truth that literally grew in his body.

He caressed the slight bulge that was formed on his stomach and looked back at the raven once more.

„We'll see each other as soon as it will be possible. I promise. And you know I never break promises." he mumbled softly, not wanting to wake the man. Then he kissed the slightly open lips and got up from the bed, taking the bag, that he had by his legs.

„I love you, Sasuke. Don't forget that." He said, and jumped from the window onto the next house's roof. Droplets of tears that followed his steps, reflecting the cold moon's light.

L&T

When Sasuke woke up, few hours later, there were no traces of his blonde lover already. Even if he searched the whole house thrice - instead of twice - he would not find some. Except for the movement the curtains made because of the still opened window.

End here~

The next chapter will start a bit earlier than the last part, and it will slowly move on until we get to said last part :D

Also, the next will be like three times long then this one. Yahoo~

Please review. d=(^0^)=b
