Note: Naruto is blind
"Hey."
"Hey?" Sasuke glanced up at Naruto from his homework. The sun was out, making Naruto's tanned skin almost look golden. For once, he wasn't wearing his sunglasses. His eyes were beautiful.
"You kind of remind me of the sky." Sasuke laid down his pen and shot Naruto a puzzled look, despite knowing that he couldn't see it.
"Why is that?"
"It's always there, even if I can't see it. It's beautiful and out of my reach. Like you." Naruto gave a slight smile. He was staring out the window, it almost looked like he was really looking at the sky and not staring into nothingness. Sasuke's heart sank a little at his words.
"Then you would be the earth."
"Why?"
"It contains so much beauty, but no one recognizes it for it. It's lived through a lot, and seems broken -perhaps it is- yet it continues to exist and support the people by just being there." his eyes didn't leave Naruto's even once. He could have sworn that his gaze was returned for a second. Naruto's smile grew, and Sasuke felt his own mouth twist upward. Only slightly, but it was more than any other person had gotten from him.
"Yeah. I guess so."
