(Naruto) Married life with Uchiha Sasuke-sama

Not long ago, the monk in the temple on the mountain rang the midnight bell.

There was no light on in the living room.

For some unknown reason, Sasuke-sama came out of the room without sleeping and stayed alone in the dark living room.

Because I was worried, I lifted the quilt and followed closely. The first thing I saw was Sasuke-sama's lonely back, as if he was blending into the darkness.

This posture reminds me of my roommate. Every time she feels sad or sad, she will find an empty classroom to be alone. I have no choice but to apply this experience to Sasuke-sama. I assume that Sasuke-sama is in a bad mood. .

Hearing the noise I made, Sasuke-sama just turned his head slightly and glanced at me.

I slowly closed the sliding door, walked to the opposite side of him, and sat down quietly.

Next to it was a container of charcoal. I used a tong to take out a few pieces and added them to the stove, which had long been turned off.

Since the light was a little dim, it was difficult to find things. I fumbled for a long time, but still couldn't find the tools to light the fire.

Weird, I remember it being placed nearby.

For a moment, Sasuke-sama lowered his eyes, stretched out his hand, not far from my fingers, and easily picked up the matchbox I had been looking for for a long time with two fingers.

In the end, Sasuke-sama was responsible for lighting the fire, and the entire space gradually became warmer.

A pure black eye and a purple eye with strange circles that were usually covered by long hair reflected warm light. Master Sasuke stared at the fire and suddenly said: "Did I wake you up?"

I was staring blankly at the crackling and sparkling charcoal. When I heard this, I raised my eyes and shook my head to explain: "No, no, I just didn't fall asleep."

It probably refers to the footsteps passing by my door. Although I had closed my eyes at that time, I seemed to have some indigestion from eating too much at night, so I was not sleepy.

I got up and poured two cups of hot water back, but my cup was filled with digestive herbs brought from my hometown: "Sasuke-sama, can't you sleep too?"

I don't know if it was my imagination, but the pressure on Sasuke-sama's side dropped a little.

Master Sasuke lowered his eyes and paused for a moment: "...I guess, I had a nightmare."

I handed him another glass with a slight smile on my face: "Okay, can you let me stay with you for a while?"

After taking a sip and placing the cup next to him, Sasuke-sama curled his lips and said indifferently: "Whatever you want."

It was quiet for a moment, and the sound of two people breathing could be heard.

Sasuke-sama closed his eyes and opened them instantly, staring at me steadily: "Are you really sure?"

I wondered: "What do you mean?"

The wind blew from nowhere, and the flames swayed, and my shadow and that of Sasuke-sama also swayed a few times.

Lord Sasuke: "You want to stay and live with me."

I remembered that I had said some embarrassing words before, which were all my true feelings. I blushed and hesitated: "Of course."

Master Sasuke changed into a comfortable position, bent one leg and put an arm on his knee. His tone was calm, as if he was telling someone else's story: "For people like me who have lost their relatives and clan members and have nothing, what happened that night?" If only everything was a cruel illusion to me, it's painful enough just to think about living with someone like me, so I'll give you time to think it over."

So is this year telling me that it’s still too late to regret?

I swallowed the herbal water. It wasn't very bitter, but my mouth was filled with this unpleasant taste. I reminded myself to rinse my mouth later.

After thinking for a moment, I didn't speak because I remembered my mother's words: "When a usually taciturn person suddenly confides in you, don't interrupt them, just listen carefully..."

Probably because my father is a man of few words. Because he is a hunter, he needs to be patient and quiet when hunting in the forest.

After a long while, Master Sasuke said casually: "I used to be an Avenger, born for revenge. I betrayed Konoha in order to pursue strength by killing my brother with my own hands. It was I who took the initiative to abandon them and cut off the Bond, this is a reality that I will not argue with, but that time, before Itachi disappeared, he told me that he would always love..."

While Sasuke-sama was talking, I was reminded of what happened a long time ago. When I was very young, my mother would always touch my head very tenderly when I cried.

So, before I finished speaking, I stepped forward and gently hugged him.

Because I intuitively think that this should make Sasuke-sama feel better.

Under Sasuke-sama's slightly stunned expression, he imitated his mother and touched his head.

Sasuke-sama's hair was indeed a bit prickly to the touch when it was not wet with water. Then he imitated his mother and said some comforting words: "But, they must also attach great importance to Sasuke-sama. Whether he is a brother or a friend, at least Naru Mr. Ren and Miss Ying gave me this feeling. Although I don’t understand anything, I can make random comments about you without knowing anything about you. I hope I won’t be offended.”

"It's ok……"

Maybe it was because of the flames, but I always felt that Sasuke-sama's face was a little red.

But this is not the point.

Subconsciously, I patted Sasuke-sama's shoulder in a comforting manner, which was already as stable as a mature man. I noticed that this action made Sasuke-sama's body stunned for a moment, so I stopped immediately.

Staring at the top of Sasuke-sama's head who was forced to be buried in my chest, I thought for a while: "It will be painful because of the bond, and it will be painful if we lose it, but please believe me, Sasuke-sama, since we have decided to be together, then the days to come will be Let’s live a good life together, the two of us.”

Sasuke-sama, who was not struggling in his arms, seemed to sigh: "Why did you choose me so firmly? Is it just because of the engagement?"

I naturally put my hand on Mr. Sasuke's shoulder, paused for a while, and said honestly: "I don't know either, but when I first met you, my intuition told me that you are a very reliable person. I believe you will value me, so I will value you.”

Lord Sasuke raised his head, his eyes reflected my silly smile, and he turned his head: "...Mai, you are really strange, you can trust someone so wholeheartedly."

The chest vibrated with the sound of Lord Sasuke's voice.

It's just a little bad, and my heartbeat seems to be speeding up unconsciously. Fortunately, Sasuke-sama doesn't seem to notice this.

There was a calendar hanging on the wall, and the day was circled in red with a marker. I came up with an idea: "Sasuke-sama! Let's go on a date tomorrow for New Year's Eve!"
