CHILDHOOD INNOCENCE

small thing I came up with. Just enjoy!

A small boy sat crying. His normally shiny blonde hair was matted and dirty, his bright blue eyes sad and shining with tears.

There was a large cut on his forehead, sitting on a lump where a brick had hit him. He would touch it every now and then, wincing at the pain.

No one was near him, he had run away so they wouldn't see him crying and hurt.

"Hey!" a voice called out. It didn't sound angry or mean, but it didn't sound friendly either. Naruto flinched, hoping the voice wasn't talking to him. Two small feet in sandals appeared before him. Very different compared to his bare and dirty ones. "You're on Uchiha property, why?"

"I-I'm s-sorry, I d-didn't know" naruto looked up slowly to see the pale face of a boy his age.

"It's ok... what happened to your forehead? Is that why your crying all alone?"

"I wasn't cry..." naruto was cut of by cool invading fingers, touching the wound leniently. Naruto recoiled from the hand.

"If I kiss it..." the boy said softly, "if I kiss it will it be better?"

"I dunno..." Naruto said meekly.

The boy bent down, leaned forward and kissed the injury tenderly.

It was a warm touch, naruto noticed. Warm and soft and loving. He was never touched like that. He liked it... a lot. "I don't think it's better yet."

The boy smirked, but kissed his forehead again. "Hmmm, your hand is hurt. How about I fix that as well? " he brought the hand to his lips, watching naruto intently. " you must have it something really hard."

Naruto studied him. His savior. Dark eyes and dark hair. "Like a cockatoo's" naruto laughed. His looks were sharp and noticeable. Save for the little mar on his cheek.. Touching it, naruto whispered, "now I can return the favor." he leaned up and did just that. "Better?" he asked.

The boy laughed. "Much."

"SASUKE!" a teen called from farther away.

"COMING!" sasuke called back. "You better go before someone finds you" sasuke said, getting up to leave. "Ya know" he said, turning back to naruto. "I would never let you get hurt, if I was your friend." the boy known as Sasuke said. He left.

Naruto stayed at the spot, gently touching the lump that felt worlds better. He watched the retreating backs of the teen and sasuke. Sasuke. 'What a nice name.'

OWARI!

In all randomness. Which is all I can say. I didn't do much editing so bear with it, but I did use my thesaurus. Anyway RXR ONEGAI!
