I'll miss you
Sasuke tossed and turned in bed. Seeking the sleep that wouldn't come. After a few more minutes of this he finally gave up and sat with his back to the bed's carved wooden headboard.
He looked up at the moon and wondered where Naruto could be. And if he were safe. And what he was doing. And if he missed him the same way Sasuke was missing the blonde nin.
This was the first mission that they had to accomplish apart from each other, since they had gotten together. 1
It wasn't even a highly dangerous mission, by ninja standards. Naruto and Shikamaru simply had to deliver a message to the Sand village and bring back the reply.
But Sasuke missed Naruto nonetheless, and worried about him.
It was the first time that they had ever really been apart and Sasuke was sick with worry.
He missed Naruto's presence and throughout the day found himself drifting off, needing to see, touch, taste, smell, and talk to Naruto. Needing to know that he was safe and alive.
Sasuke hated the thought of Naruto getting hurt. He was overprotective of his boyfriend, this, the whole village knew from countless experiences, but Naruto was a competent jounin and would not stand to be treated otherwise.
Kakashi had caught his gaze once today and had given him a sympathetic smile. "Iruka is neither a jounin nor an anbu but every time I leave on a mission I always fear that he won't be there when I come back or that the village would be attacked and he would get hurt or die, But I can't change anything, nor do I want to. I'm still an anbu and he's still a teacher at the academy. You'll just have to learn to trust him to be safe and sound, and hope and pray." Kakashi had murmured.
Sasuke found himself whispering to the moon his fears and hopes, prayers even, things he never imagined he'd say.
"I miss you, Naruto." He forced his eyes closed as his heart mourned the distance and called out to the other.

AN: Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated for a week! School work caught up with me and I lost the diskette which contained some Grow Old with You chappies and my enlish and literature assignment sighs. Mou… I'm really, really sorry. Same with paranoia-shoujo's formerly titled Shards of my secret unkempt's readers. I'll try to send her the fight scene she needs for that chappie soon, hopefully before the next weekend is out. She has a fever right now, by the way…sweatdrop okay I'm rambling. Well, anyway, here are the next chapters. Review please and enjoy!
1 In this chapter Naruto is 18 years old already[sorry I got their ages mixed up in the last ANs] and both he and Sasuke are jounins. Notice that in the series the jounins of Konoha no longer move about in the usual teams of three the way the genins and maybe some chuunins do…Or so I think. ;
