6. Soft (?Saku)
Her lips were so soft to touch; trembling petals on a full grown cherry tree. His fingers played gently over the delicate pink flesh and, slowly, he sealed the gap between their bodies.
7) Open your Eyes (NaruSasu)
Naruto had him pressed up against the wall, hands grasping the collar of his shirt, his teeth bared and blue eyes blazing. He was screaming something and Naruto was screaming back and it eventually got to the point where Naruto drew back his fist and brought it down sharply across his face.
Sasuke just spat blood at him.
The blond shook Sasuke and brought his fist back again and yelled, "Why can't you open your fucking eyes! Are you blind or something?"
This time Sasuke punched Naruto across his cheek and pushed the dobe away from him, flipping their positions this time with his forearm against Naruto's neck, eyes bleeding red and he pushed on Naruto's neck harder, "My eyes are open, you little fuck."
All Naruto did was grit his teeth and looked out the window of the room, and saw the sakura blossoms flitter to the ground as they detached from their tree. Naruto then turned back to Sasuke and growled: "No, they're not."
8) Shame (NaruSasuSaku)
It was so completely shameful. Sasuke was a fine young man, a proper ANBU along with Naruto and Sakura, and he had yet to be married, yet to even have someone he would consider to marry. Of course he viewed Sakura and Naruto as candidates for his affections, but that would be so shameful. Marrying his former-teammates. Sasuke wasn't even sure if he wanted to marry. Sure, it would bring down the Uchiha name but after what Itachi did, not much could ground it into the ground morebesides marrying another male or a woman with not outstanding techniques and no real power.
Naruto hung out uselessly in his house, lying around on the couch and eating his food and not wearing a shirt. So when Sasuke came back from one of his missions and found Naruto asleep on his couch he didn't pull out a kunai and when he saw Sakura in his kitchen baking something he didn't slit her throat. He was used to having pets.
"Sakura." Sasuke greeted, leaning on the doorframe, eyeing the pink-haired women dully.
Sakura turned around and face him, her short hair flipping in the air and she hid what she was making behind her back. She stuck out her tongue, "Sasuke."
"Dobe's asleep on my couch." Sasuke complained as he advanced on Sakura, a smirk building as Sakura took a step back, protecting whatever was behind her back with her body.
"I know." She said dully, rolling her eyes, "He's always asleep." She eyed the amount of space Sasuke had drawn between them and sneered lightly, an expression foreign to her face, "Back off a little, I'm doing something."
Sasuke arched an eyebrow and leaned over, his lips brushing Sakura's ear and his arms reaching around her waist, grabbing the plate that was behind her back before pulling away, eyeing the tiny cupcake, "A cupcake." He stated, sniffing it before nibbling, purely out of habit.
"A cupcake." Sakura reiterated, pursing her lips together, "Now go wake up Naruto, he was supposed to do your laundry this time but he just slept."
9) Starlight (Gen)
Naruto had developed a habit since everything had blown over, since everything turned out. He would just lie somewhere at night and look up at the sky. Sakura had to say he looked very pale in the moon light and that it didn't suit him, but when she saw how his eyes closed and how the stress that wouldn't leave his jaw final dissipated; she realized she couldn't interrupt Naruto in whatever he was doing. She would watch him for a while; she would just sit on the tree branch, her own pale skin luminescent in the starlight, in the moon light.
She wondered if Sasuke wondered where they were, she wondered if he even realized they were gone. Then she would smile, and realize that, yes, of course Sasuke realized they were gone and that, yes, he must wonder about where they were.
10) Strength (Gen)
It was strength that drove him to push and pull and rip and break and force himself to feel the pain that kyuubi couldn't fix fast enough, it was that ever-present weight on his chest that made him need to be stronger, made him need…
Naruto didn't know what he needed. He needed so much. He needed Sasuke, he needed Sakura, he needed, he needed, he needed he just needed so much for him to even be anything akin to content and everything was being torn away from him so savagely and it was maiming him and he just didn't want to take it, he couldn't take it anymore because he was so close to snapping he needed something and he was just feeling so tired. Tired and run-on and needy.
