Loneliness
By: Lady Sakura of the Fated! (ME!)
Uzamaki Naruto was very lonely as a kid.
He was often bullied in Kindergarten because of his hair and eyes so everyone steered clear of him. Every one except the ones bullying him. This resulted in his bad reputation. So he was very lonely.
He often snapped in 1st grade yelling at everybody and even hitting them. Because of this even the bullies were afraid of him. But he was still lonely. But he didn't let anybody know that. Not that they'd listen anyway.
He finally mellowed out in 2nd grade but still had small bouts of violence. He was still lonely. Of course no one noticed this.
3rd was the same. Minus the violence. Now Naruto was silent and distant. Because of this his bullies started beating him again. He didn't care anymore though. He just took it silently. Afterwards he would treat his wounds and continue on. He was still all alone.
4th grade was pretty much the same as 3rd. Beatings that Naruto took silently. Wounds that he treated. Alone.
5th grade seemed like heaven for poor Naruto. It was the middle of the school year during a huge beating when his angel appeared. In black. He was new to the school as of a couple weeks ago and he just happened to be in Uzamaki Naruto's class. All of them in fact.
It was during 4th period (study hall) when Naruto was dragged to the back of the school. He had a feeling this one would be worse than anyone he would received, he also had a feeling it was because his birthday. But he would just sit there like all of the other times. Sit there quietly and take it. So he did.
He welcomed the pain without a word. Just as he was about to fade in unconscious a voice brought him back into reality. Not just any voice, but his voice. His angels'. A smile graced Naruto's face as he watched his attackers run from the dark figure.
"Oi, dobe, you okay?" Naruto sat up slowly holding his hand to a large gash on his arm. And for the first time in 2 years, Naruto spoke.
"Hai. Sasuke." Sasuke slowly walked over to Naruto and pulled him into a hug. And to the surprise of the Uchiha, Naruto started laughing despite being beaten up pretty bad.
Sasuke looked at Naruto as if he grew a second head. But Naruto didn't care. Oh, no. Not at all.
"Hn. You're weird. Anyway, happy birthday." This caused Naruto's smile to grow wider as he leaned back more into the hug. And despite Sasuke's efforts a smile also appeared on his pale face.
Naruto and Sasuke quickly became friends. Naruto still had some beatings when Sasuke wasn't around, but he was always there afterwards with an apology and a kiss. He would then help treat Naruto's wounds.
Finally, Naruto was truly happy because for the first time in his whole short life so gar, he was lonely. And he had a feeling he wouldn't be for a long, long time.
Hikari Say's: It's a bit random and totally out of the blue but I wanted to create a sad but cute sasuxnaru story and the idea just popped into my head. I wrote this in about twenty minutes so sorry if it may seem rushed.
