Did you know Naruto never cried as a baby?
It's true. Never even a yell. He was so quiet that sometimes the people forced to be his surrogates would forget he was there, and when they found him, sometimes they would forget that he was evil. He never cried, not when he was hungry, not when he was hit.
No, Naruto never made much of a fuss… until the one day he met an ignorant ramen stand owner.
It was him who told Naruto that he should let everyone know who he was. That they couldn't just forget him.
Because he was their sin.
Did you know that he doesn't scream, even when he has nightmares?
It's true. Never a sound. His body goes so still that even his heart slows to almost a stop. Even if you were to place your hand near his mouth you might miss his breath.
Once, on a mission, the Team had to camp out and he had a nightmare.
the kind where he saw himself destroying Konoha. With claws and fire
Sasuke tried to wake him up for his shift, but couldn't. He ended up yelling for Kakashi. They feared Naruto had died in his sleep.
When Naruto woke, he stared blankly at the strange face the Uchiha was making. It was so weird that he continued to stare, even when Sakura wrapped her arms around him and wept- relived that he had been just sleeping.
Did you know Sasuke was not a morning person?
It's true. If he didn't set multiple alarm clocks each night, he would probably sleep the day through. Sometimes he just wanted to curl up and not care about training or work.
Sometimes when he gets up in the morning, he walks into the door on his way to the bathroom. He used to be so clumsy that he moved his room downstairs, so that he wouldn't have to worry about falling down the stairs in the morning, him still half-asleep. He's never truly awake until he gets to the bridge.
Sometimes he falls asleep standing at the bridge, and only Naruto's exuberant, "Good morning!" wakes him up, although the blonde didn't know it.
His family used to tease him about his morning tendencies.
Now only the empty rooms are there to watch
Did you know that Naruto once terrified him?
It's true. He nearly cried. The blonde's body had been so still that even his heart had almost slowed to a stop. He put his ear to his mouth and couldn't feel the other boy's breath.
That mission when they were stuck in the forest and decided to make camp.
He was done with his watch and went to wake the dobe for his shift
He lightly kicked him to wake him, but couldn't, even when he shook him
He yelled for Kakashi, there had been no heart beat to hear, He thought he
had lost him…
When Naruto awoke, Sasuke couldn't hide the relief on his face. Naruto watched him with blurry eyes, which he noticed were very much blue.
