"Is there a reason I would seem to be approachable of all people?" Sasuke asked curiously, looking at Naruto with a tilt of his head as the other frowned for a moment before nodding and responding softly, "You emit a protective aura to those around."

"I do? Usually most people call me names or an Ice Prince," Sasuke hummed in thought, causing Naruto to blink and look at him before a small smile appeared on his lips, "They do not know then."

"What do you mean? What don't they know?"

"They don't know because it is not something they look for, nor are they observant. You're lonely and sad and wish for someone to come and help but no one does. No one comes to help because they only want you for what comes with you and your name, as well as with your face," Naruto answered, looking down at the floor again and allowing Sasuke's eyes to widen as he took in Naruto's words and realized the truth in them.

"I… no one has ever been able to see any of that when they look at me. You have only looked me in the eyes once and you already know so much," he finally said, sighing in defeat.

"It's because we have the same eyes. Other than that, I truly don't know anything about besides where you go to school because I go there as well. You may not know me or recognize me from anywhere but you are very well known across campus. Everyone knows who Sasuke Uchiha is and they also all want to be part of your posse… A posse that I can now say for certain is only some hardcore fangirls and you and your best friend having to deal with them all."

"You're something else, you know that? You managed to piece that together in the short time we have been sitting here? That is truly amazing," Sasuke said after a moment, making Naruto blush and hide his face in his hands, not looking up for a second.

"I guess…"

"No, don't do that. Don't hide from me, please. I promise I won't judge you or do anything mean to you, just don't hide your face from me."

Naruto slowly and reluctantly uncovered his face, frowning deeply as he bit his lip, "But… there's nothing to see when you look at me. I am not worth much in the first place so why would looking at my face help you feel any better?"

"Naruto, you are worth so much more than you see and think, honestly. I swear that I will make you see that. I may have only just met you but it feels like there is already something tying me to you and I would be a fool to allow that to slip away from me," Sasuke answered, ruffling Naruto's hair gently as the blond's eyes watered.

Naruto had never quite been someone that others would praise. Instead, others would only help bring him down because, in their eyes, an orphan child would never be good enough for anyone, much less them. He had also never been someone to make friends easily due to the fact that his town was very judgmental. You had parents who were extremely superstitious telling their kids to stay away from the 'demon' child because he would most certainly bring them bad luck. He guessed it was because the town was made up of bigots who believed in nothing but their so-called God. In the end, he had forever been cursed with bad luck and although he had prayed his whole life for a miracle, it just never came… It was then that he gave up. He would allow them all to think what they wanted and continue trying to live his life in any way he could and it had worked out. He had long ago stopped listening to others' words and just focused on himself, something that he found actually working most of the time. So… Why was this affecting him so much right now?

"Naru?" Sasuke asked softly, leaning in to see what was wrong with the blond before hesitating for a second and then handing Naruto a tissue and smiling gently, "Too much?"

Naruto shook his head at the raven before attempting to give him a smile, "N-no… I… It was just right." (Lmao, Got7 reference)

"I'm glad it was then," Sasuke chuckled, nodding at Naruto as the younger looked at him gratefully while he took the tissue and began to wipe his face.

"You know… you're probably one of the most entertaining and interesting people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting."

"What do you mean now?" Naruto asked quietly. He was quite curious to hear what the other had to say about other people in comparison to himself in general.

"You're you, right, we both know that much but… You have this aura and it's not a sad one but rather a soothing and calming one. It also has a feeling reminiscent of the sun on a cloudy day, you could say it's bubbly… It feels quite nice and I can't help but love it because it's unique. No one I have ever seen or met has had such an aura but you. It's quite amazing… Not to ignore the fact that you don't actually ooze any sort of malicious intent towards anyone. You… are an angel in my eyes," Sasuke answered, a smile playing on his lips as Naruto blinked and tried to process everything he had just said then blushed deeply, allowing Sasuke to pull him into a gentle hug and rub his back soothingly.

The warmth that radiated from Sasuke's hand calmed Naruto down enough to allow him to relax and lay his head on the raven's shoulder. He couldn't quite remember when the last time he had been this soothed had been. It was almost as if Sasuke was some sort of little miracle that showed up at the right time for no reason and would stay forever by Naruto's side. He knew it was wishful thinking, they had only just met after all but… He couldn't help and think so and, on a subconscious level, it wasn't some silly hope but a simple and precious wish.

"I'll be here," Sasuke whispered, smiling as he looked at Naruto and hugged him closer while the blond smiled and nodded slightly, sighing softly as he began to close his eyes slowly, enjoying the warmth that Sasuke emitted and relaxing into it.

He was safe.

"You'll be alright."
