Supernova Dreams
Drabble Fluff. SasuNaru. Dear Lord, figurative language thou art a bitch.

"Pluck a star from the sky for me, Sasuke."
Sasuke turned to stare at the pre-teen.
"Could you pluck a star from the sky for me?"
Naruto was lying on his back, hands under his blonde head. The crystalline eyes he had seen so often dusted with happiness, anger and emotions to the tenth degree were closed. In fact, it would have seemed that he never spoke if not for the sound waves streaking to the horizon.
"What?"
" You love me right? If you love me so much, then pluck a star from the sky for me."
Of course this was impossible, and only a moonstruck fool would think to test it out. However, Love transcends time, so why not distance. But, what if he didn't try or tried and couldn't… If he couldn't give that faraway twinkle to his beloved. . And, if he could not…Would Naruto go? Was this a test of strength? Like animals tested the virility of their potential mates? But, what good would a star do him?
Sasuke rose anyway. He lifted off of his feet and reached for the heavens. Stretched in midair a splendid sight. Only to come down, biting the unforgiving ground. Sweet malleable laughter chuckled along side him. Naruto squatted down a foot from eye level.
"You can't do everything by yourself, Sasuke, and you certainly can't do everything."
Carnation pink lips brushed against his sending a charge racing along his veins.
"Besides, we can make our own star, all we need is a supernova."
The same lips pushed readily into his own. And in his mind's eye Sasuke pictured a bright star, cresting into its second life.
…Somehow, I don't like this so much…but it is my desperation child ficlet/drabble. So I shall nurture it…It leaves a bitter taste in my heart's mouth though for some reason…
