Crack the Shutters - Snow Patrol
The sounds of peaceful slumber reverberated off the white walls of the newly built home. Two bodies rested contently with each other underneath recently purchased, glossy silk sheets.
Dark eyes opened to the sound of soft music playing from their iPod deck, signaling six o'clock in the morning. He adjusted to the faintly lit room, the sun's rays peeking through the small cracks of the shutters. Sasuke stretched his arm carefully over to the left of him to silence the clock, figuring he forgot to turn it off the night before.
Resting his arm there, Sasuke began to move his other to rub the sleep from his eyes. He stopped when he felt long fingers entwined with his own, his hand wrapped around a tanned one in a strong grip.
A small smile stretched it's way onto Sasuke's face. He moved his free hand to tangle in hair that nearly touched tan shoulders, playing with the spiky locks.
'Naruto...'
As if the sleeping man heard his thoughts, Naruto scooted closer to Sasuke, burying his face into the pale neck.
"Sasuke, back to sleep...it's early.." Naruto murmured, desperately clinging to the relaxing clutches of slumber.
A quick grunt rumbled throughout Sasuke's chest, teasing Naruto of his obvious exhaustion. Naruto's nose simply twitched in reply, tickled by Sasuke's hair as he moved.
Sasuke moved carefully out of bed, trying not to disturb Naruto any further. He made his way, unclothed, to the dresser in search of the brush he left there the day before.
Brush in hand, he turned around and faced Naruto. The absence of his body allowed the thin rays of light to lay on Naruto's face. Sasuke smiled again and placed object back down. Tucking his groomed hair behind his ear, he walked quietly over to the shutters.
He opened them widely, allowing them to fully dance around the resting body. Undisturbed by the sun's blinding light, Naruto smiled gently in his sleep, tilting his head upwards as if to welcome it.
Naruto belonged in the sunlight.
'He reminds me of the sun..bright and warm.'
The complete opposite of him, though, Sasuke figured, that was why Naruto and he needed each other.
Why they belonged to each other.
Naruto gave Sasuke something to live for. After so many years of suffering, of loneliness. Naruto gave him a home.
And Sasuke was sure he did the same for Naruto. Though the carefree man offered such kindness, Sasuke was sure there were secrets deep within Naruto's heart. Secrets Naruto felt comfortable to share only with Sasuke.
Leaving the shutters open, Sasuke crawled back into bed with Naruto, deciding a few more hours of sleep could do them some good.
Settling quickly, Sasuke fell asleep with his nose buried in blonde hair, his own sun held closely to his body.
A/N: This started out as an iPod Song Shuffle Challenge thingie, but 10 scenes were just too many scenes to formulate, so I ended up writing two, and keeping the second one cause I kinda liked it. I let my friends read it, and they seemed to enjoy it. I've lost faith in my writing, just thought I'd write something small to get myself off of this huge friggin block.
In case you missed, the drabble was inspired the song Crack the Shutters by Snow Patrol. You should listen to it if you haven't, its' really sweet.
Hope you enjoyed~
