【Ming Zuo】Walking Alone in Darkness

"At that time..." Sasuke looked up at the white ceiling, and slowly said, "I only wanted revenge, and I chose to leave Konoha with Orochimaru in order to gain power. Speaking of which, you also seem to have some memory fragments from your previous life, No wonder I always had trouble with Orochimaru before."

Sasuke smiled slightly. In the previous life, Orochimaru went out to provoke trouble again. When he came back, he told him that he had met the nine-tailed boy who had been chasing you. He was super fierce, as if I had robbed his wife.Of course, Sasuke at that time was not interested in his jokes, and coldly asked him to practice with him.But in fact, there is still a small area with bright light in the darkness in my heart, and I come and go to think about a noisy crane tail.

At that time, he thought that he hadn't seen him for nearly three years, and he didn't know what that guy had become, at least he had grown taller—but that face was probably still just as silly.

So when he saw him later, he found that he had really grown a lot taller, and...that silly face had also become a lot more handsome.

Sasuke smiled very gently because of the memory, Naruto looked a little stunned, touched Sasuke's face, lowered his head and kissed: "I must not be able to beat Orochimaru at that time, otherwise I would definitely beat him and bring you back I said .”

Sasuke coughed lightly with a smile, more than flattening, Naruto had a lot of golden sentences at that time, and he felt embarrassed listening to the retelling, so glad he didn't hear it face to face: "Then you have never given up, you have always wanted to Take me back to Konoha. Although even now I don't think that is a good choice-but you are really serious. When everyone says I am a rebellious and hopeless, you will You quarreled with your contemporaries and refused to give up. Even in a place I didn’t know, I knelt down and begged others for me, because I had a respiratory attack because I was rejected.”

Xiao Sakura, who was dispensing the medicine, was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and remembered that she had a strange feeling when she heard Sasuke's breathing... So, does she really have some memory fragments from her previous life?

Naruto pursed his lips.

"At that time, I almost hurt Sakura by mistake." Sasuke sighed softly, "After thinking about it, I always feel that you should have quarreled with me because of her..."

"You have always been very strong, keep getting stronger, and you solved Payne's attack on Konoha by yourself and saved the whole village. At that time, I heard that Hinata ran out to save you, but I don't know the details, probably you guys Since then, I’ve gotten closer...I seldom saw you at that time, but every time, you were much stronger. Several crises in the Fourth World War were almost reversed by you alone, obviously It is said that the battle launched to protect you, those people are really useless. Later when I came back to join the battle, your contemporaries all regarded me as an enemy, only you..."

Sasuke smiled: "You said 'it's too slow'."

Sakura came over to change the infusion bag for Sasuke, and she also smiled when she heard this: "...Really, very Naruto style."

Naruto forced a smile, and slowly tightened his hand holding his assistant's finger.

"After the Fourth World War ended, Kaguya and Heijue were sealed...but it was not over for me. I decided to kill you at that time." Sasuke said quietly, slowly expressing his beliefs at that time, like It was saying goodbye to a part of the past, "...Actually, I think that the last battle, if you also hold the determination to kill me, it will not end like that."

"What ending?" Naruto asked.

"We crippled each other's hand." Sasuke said, "Your right hand, my left hand."

Sakura covered her mouth in shock.

"So..." Naruto clenched Sasuke's left hand, "When you were young, your movements would be strange and your posture would be uncoordinated. Is it because you haven't adapted to life with your left hand? It's because of my fault..."

"Hey, what kind of understanding do you have?" Sasuke was shocked, "Is it my fault anyway? And you lost your right hand yourself. And then Konoha refused to accept me, after that For more than ten years, you have been working on this matter. In fact, I really don't care about Konoha's eyes, and I did it just to help you alone." Sasuke pinched Naruto's fingers back, "You I don't care, I'm so stupid, I've been fulfilling the promise I made with Sakura all my life."

Sakura was already preparing to leave the stage to protect her eyes because of the atmosphere, but she was shot suddenly: "Eh? What's the matter with me?"

Sasuke was about to say "I like Sakura" that Naruto had been talking about for many years in his previous life to see the expressions of the two of them, when Naruto suddenly hugged him hard.

"It has nothing to do with Sakura, nothing at all!" Naruto growled, "I like you myself! It must be because of Sasuke, it has nothing to do with anything else!"

Sasuke was silent for a while, and said softly: "So I always feel that after I was reborn, I did too much and led you to the wrong place..."

Naruto froze: "What did you say?"

"In the previous life..." Sasuke said, "You didn't like me, you were married to Hinata, and you had two children."

The room was so quiet for a moment that the air seemed to freeze.

Naruto stared at Sasuke blankly, his mind blank.

He suddenly remembered that from a very young age, Sasuke always reminded himself to pay attention to Hinata, and he lost his temper a few times because of this.

The first time he confessed, Sasuke asked him, don't you like Hinata.

And that time, Sasuke said that he always liked him, but he didn't like him.

"So," Naruto said, "Did Sasuke mean that at that time?"

Sasuke froze slightly.

Naruto looked directly at him, and continued to ask: "At that time, I said the wrong thing first, I apologize, and I can make amends to Sasuke as many times as I want. But you feel that you still like me in the previous life, so I am sorry for the current one. My feelings are impure... Is this what you mean by 'not concentrating enough' and 'not pure enough'?"

Sasuke's lips trembled slightly, but he still nodded: "Yes. So I still feel..."

He couldn't finish speaking, because Naruto rushed over and hugged him tightly. With such a frizzy character, he still remembered to avoid his wound.

"You're wrong, let me tell you." Naruto said in a low voice, "You are you, I am me, isn't it me who you like! Really, I don't know who made me jealous for so long... Who the hell? That's the idiot!"

Sasuke shivered slightly, and smiled wryly: "But in this life, I was too close to you. If it wasn't for this, you might go on the same path as in the previous life, and eventually marry a woman worthy of your status and have children .After the Fourth World War, you were the hero who saved the world, the strongest of the five shadows. You probably can’t imagine how much praise and reverence you received at that time. And your only stain is that you have always wanted to serve Uchiha Sasuke corrects his name."

"Say it again?" Naruto said with a sullen face.

Seeing Naruto's expression, Sasuke flinched subconsciously.

Whether it's the real face or the memory, the time of Gaara, the time of Payne's attack, the fourth battle of Dirty Reincarnation... Sasuke has searched through Naruto's most angry times, and they are not as scary as they look now.

"Stain? Do you dare to say that you are my stain?" Naruto put one hand next to Sasuke's pillow and looked down at him. Jiu Lama, who had slept all day, couldn't help but ask him to calm down.

"I'm calm." Naruto said impatiently, "Shut up. Sasuke, say it again, you look into my eyes and tell me, you think you are just a 'stain' in my heart?"

It's over, this is more serious than "like the way friends like" is wrong.Sasuke was lying down at first, so he couldn't help but raised his hand and said, "No... Of course I didn't mean that you look at me like that, it's someone else, your villager..."

"If they look at you like that, then they shouldn't be my villagers!" Naruto shouted angrily, the Nine-Tails Chakra erupted violently, the door frame and window frame shook dangerously, and Sakura had already retreated to the corner of the room .

"Hey Naruto, take it easy! Can that boy release Chakra like this!" Nine Lama roared.

Sasuke's face was indeed paler, and Naruto finally restrained himself a little, and forcibly suppressed the fast-running Chakra, but he obviously didn't calm down at all: "I've been wanting to say it just now, and there are many things that are not right at all. Thinking about something! Sasuke has no place to return to in Konoha, the high-level officials do not accept Sasuke, refuse to rehabilitate Uchiha, and it is the root cause of Uchiha's harm! Forcibly let Sasuke 'return' to this place, only It will hurt Sasuke! If I would change everything completely, then it would be fine to bring Sasuke back to give Sasuke a home, but no, I have done nothing for Sasuke! I have been saying that I want to bring Sasuke back, what is it? What are you doing!?—Forcibly pulling someone who doesn’t belong here is also counted as ‘coming back’!”

"I like Sasuke, and there will never be any mistakes!" Naruto couldn't bear it anymore, "I really didn't think about it, there were only some messy memory fragments that I couldn't spell, but I knew that I just liked Sasuke. It doesn’t matter, it has nothing to do with anything else! Sasuke is my one and only, my vision, and my most important! If there is something abnormal—the one in my previous life who didn’t like Sasuke is abnormal!”

Sasuke was stunned.

Sasuke stayed there for a long time. He looked at Naruto, and felt in a daze that he saw the 30-year-old Naruto smiling at him through the photo, and saw the 16-year-old Naruto pointing his chest and saying to himself, let us understand each other in another world, Seeing 13-year-old Naruto yelling at me, I won't let you cut off my hard-earned bond.

In the end, it was clearly seen that Naruto in front of him was looking at him angrily, but the anger was directly conveyed to Naruto himself in the previous life through Sasuke's eyes.

"I'm sorry..." Sasuke whispered, raising his hand to cover his eyes.

He always thought that liking Naruto was just his own thing.The events of the previous life left a deep impression on him, so when facing Naruto's feelings in this life, he always escaped, always wanting to leave a way out for himself.He likes Naruto, and he is willing to be with Naruto, but he... has always avoided thinking about the long-term of this relationship.

While he was greedy for the time with him, he even imagined him as Hokage and himself as a shadow, but he still thought in his heart that they would not make it to the end.

This... is the most unfair to Naruto.

He once promised himself that when Naruto no longer needed him, he would go back and find that Naruto.At that time, he felt that the Naruto of the Seventh Hokage already had everything, but the young Naruto still couldn't do without him.When he also has a wife and son, and his life is complete, he should leave... Later, Naruto's confession disrupted his plan, he needed him, so he stayed with him and became a lover, but In fact, he still can't help but think that Naruto will eventually choose to marry a woman and have children, and he will leave sooner or later.When Naruto said to him "I'm going to get married in the future", he responded vaguely, but closed his eyes.

He has no courage.

He didn't believe in himself enough, and he didn't believe in Naruto enough.

"I'm sorry..." Sasuke said again softly, and stopped in pain.

After all, he was going to break his promise.To the Naruto of the Seventh Hokage in the dream when I was 12 years old.

It's not that he can't go back.

He doesn't want to go back.

He wants to be with Naruto, he wants to live with his family, he... wants to live well in this world that has everything.

He is real and wants to live a good life.

If you want to be with this guy who doesn't care, you will put yourself first, and you will say that the person who looks down on you is not my villager, and you will always be with him, love him, and accept his love.

Naruto still wanted to speak, but was pulled away by Sakura, and in a little panic, he lit up chakra to calm Sasuke's breathing.His body was not damaged at 01:30, his lungs and respiratory tract were not that healthy, he cried once just now, his eyes were also slightly inflamed, and he was shocked by Naruto's chakra again, if he is caused by violent mood swings again Any heart and lung problem, she will go crazy.

Naruto stood by and watched Sakura doing the treatment, and said in a low voice for a while: "Don't apologize, Sasuke. Do you know how much you have done? I said? If you still need to apologize...then what a jerk I am. "

"...Konoha is your home." Sasuke looked at Naruto, through the soft light healing Chakra in Sakura's palm, the two people looked at each other's face with some dreamy blur, "You want to be Hokage There are people you want to protect, your partners, and stores you like... But I don't like this place. This is not where I belong. I protect the Uchiha clan and Konoha lives in peace, but I don't like it here at all, I even hate it. If you want to be with me, it's with a dark rebel who doesn't belong to Konoha, and don't marry another woman , there will be no children, no good advice, only the darkness that has been hidden is revealed."

The instrument beeped loudly, and Sakura's fingers trembled when she heard Sasuke's words.But before she could hear Naruto's answer, Sasuke spoke again.

"But, I still want you to drop all that and stay with me."

Naruto laughed.

"Of course." Naruto said softly, leaning over and kissing his lips, "It doesn't matter if you have to walk in the dark, I will walk with you, I said."

============TBC==========

Sasuke's mentality change is a very long process.In the beginning, ordinary friends (Konoha version) took care of you, and then you got married and had children and I walked alone in darkness.Later, I initially accepted it, but I had no idea at all.Later, when I agreed to date, while being happy, I would think in the deepest and darkest part of my heart, this relationship will not bear fruit after all, right?Let’s talk about the transformation: At the beginning, the two just established a relationship and closed their eyes when they faced the wedding invitation. This chapter talked about it; when they were meeting at the same time, Sasuke actually cared about Hinata, and was even a little childish. The feeling of "I got it first this time and I won't let it out"; later, when he was in the hospital to eat the tomato rice that Hinata gave him as a condolence gift, Naruto said that if he liked it, he went to learn how to do it from Hinata, Sasuke didn't have any Gu Di said that it was OK, and he didn't mind Naruto and Hinata being alone at all. This is actually because Sasuke's defenses are much more open at this time than during the same party.

Of course, this chapter is fully opened -v-
