[Hokage] One tit for another

Naruto and Sasuke become friends.

...at least in Naruto's mind.

Naruto originally thought that if the Uchiha clan is so famous, the young master of their family should also be superior.The Uchiha Naruto saw occasionally was like that, with his nostrils upturned, bearing the name of a genius, and receiving countless praises and honors wherever he went.

But Naruto is completely different. He is like a wild cat in an alley, wandering around dirty, hiding in dark corners, and can only protest by meowing when he is expelled. Nobody cares at all.

But Sasuke is different.

He is as delicate as a little prince, and as proud as a king, looking down on everyone in his kingdom indifferently.

But he stretched out his hand to Naruto, acquiescing that Naruto approached cautiously step by step.

The school has since become Naruto's favorite place to go.

The most hated school day in the past seems to have turned into a surprise gift package. Every day, Naruto looks forward to the sun rising, so that he can run to school in a hurry. If he is lucky, he will meet Sasuke at the school gate and show him With a big smile, he said loudly, "Good morning!"

You know, before that, Naruto didn't even have a chance to say hello, he could only grin at himself in the mirror every morning and try hard to smile. "Good morning!" he said to himself, probably the only greeting he'd heard all day.But his voice echoed in the empty room, and quickly dissipated without leaving a trace.

And in school, Naruto is no longer alone.Sasuke will sit next to him, and Naruto can’t help but secretly talk in class. Sasuke will also listen carefully. If there is something Naruto doesn’t understand, Sasuke will patiently tell him... Although Naruto may still be confused Clear, but Sasuke never looked at him coldly like everyone else, as if he was the dirtiest stain.Instead, Sasuke smiled every time.

Naruto didn't understand why Sasuke laughed, he just thought it was amazing, Sasuke's smile seemed to have magical powers, it could turn dirty stains on white paper into a beautiful little flower, and make Naruto laugh because he couldn't understand The content of the class and the heart full of irritability suddenly calmed down, so that he no longer jumped up and down like being stabbed in the butt by a needle, but sat down obediently, looking at the textbook, and the words that were crooked and crowded just now suddenly relaxed. Unfolding, jumping into Naruto's eyes one by one.

...It seems that I can suddenly understand a little bit.

Naruto thought to himself.He looked at the textbook, and then at the side. Sasuke was coming over, looking down at the books on the table.

"What else don't you understand?" Sasuke asked.His face was still indifferent and indifferent.

But Sasuke, who seemed careless, was more patient than anyone Naruto had ever seen.Naruto asked so many stupid questions, but Sasuke didn't show the slightest bit of impatience.

Naruto looked at the profile of Sasuke who was close at hand, maybe at a certain moment, sunlight came in from the window and fell on Sasuke's delicate eyebrows.At that time, the little Naruto didn't know that Sasuke's appearance would be sought after by a large group of girls in the class. He just suddenly found that Sasuke's eyelashes were very long, which seemed to cast a faint light in the sun. The birds sang crisply and sweetly, shaking the branches, and there was a warm smell in the air.

Inexplicably, Naruto's face became hot.He himself didn't know why, maybe it was because he was ashamed that he couldn't understand the textbook?

At noon, Sasuke would give Naruto half of his bento again. He pushed the stuffed bento in front of Naruto, but said coldly and briefly.

"Too much, I'm not hungry."

It's as if it was really because he was picky about the food at home that he casually pushed it to Naruto.

Later, Naruto recalled it countless times, and felt that Sasuke's thoughtfulness and gentleness had first seen clues since then.

Every day at noon, Naruto's stomach growled with hunger. Sasuke was about the same age as him, so how could it be possible that he wasn't hungry?Moreover, how could that bento be so full that it was far beyond what Sasuke could eat alone.

But Sasuke never said, he never explained, and he didn't need Naruto's thanks, he covered up these delicate tenderness with a thick shell, as if he was afraid that others would see the soft inside.

Naruto didn't understand at that time, he just thought how could there be such a good person as Sasuke in the world, who was willing to sit at the same table with him every day, talk to him, and share lunch with him.The smiling faces on the bento made of small tomatoes and fish shreds are so cute, Naruto wants to jump up and announce to the world that he is also a man with friends, he has the best friends in the world, and he has eaten the best food in the world Delicious bento!

At that time, Naruto's world was so small, a Sasuke and a small bento box could fill his heart to the brim.

But no matter how much Naruto cherishes it, the day will always end.

After school, the students in the classroom left in twos and threes.They may go home, they may go out to play, in short, everyone has a place to go.But Naruto didn't.

Naruto wandered around the campus like a transparent ghost, he didn't know what he was going to do, and he didn't know where he should go.Sasuke was also going home, Naruto stood at the school gate, subconsciously, walked towards the direction Sasuke left.

He didn't mean to follow Sasuke.

It's just... By the time Naruto realized it, he had followed Sasuke through most of Konoha.

Naruto didn't dare to blatantly follow, but fell behind Sasuke from a distance.He looked at Sasuke's back, the setting sun cast long shadows on the street.

That's it, one after the other.Two little children walked through long streets, short alleys, small bridges, and river beaches, from dusk to a ray of setting sun shining on the horizon, through the bustling crowd, to the remote Uchiha tribal land.

"Follow Sasuke" is also one thing.

That way Naruto has someone to hang out with after school, just like everyone else.

He no longer has to swing alone, watch his lonely shadow fall on the playground, and count the number of leaves on the tree outside the apartment window over and over again, lie on the bed and watch the minute hand of the clock pass by, praying It turns a little faster, a little faster until the second day, the third day, I can't wait to pass all the difficult time quickly.

He is a man with friends.

He has someone to talk to, something to do, and... a place to go.

Naruto told Sasuke everything that came to his mind, Sasuke always listened carefully, Sasuke would neither laugh at him, nor ignore all Naruto's words like others, just let him go .

Naruto said that he wants to become stronger, and he wants to become the respected Hokage.

He had said this joke once before, which attracted laughter and contempt from the people around him.But Naruto didn't care, at that time he said it in a very loud voice, made faces at others when they laughed, played pranks when everyone was not paying attention, and then quickly slipped away.

It's like a wild cat's way of life, even if someone drives them out with a broom, they have to grin and say "I'm not afraid of anyone".

But when Naruto spoke to Sasuke, his voice was very small.

This is his dream, he wants to achieve it, and he wants Sasuke to know it.But when he said it, he was suddenly scared. What if Sasuke laughed at him like everyone else?Naruto felt that there must be no way for him to make that funny face again to show how indifferent he was.

So Naruto's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared into the afternoon sun.

But Sasuke seemed to hear it, he raised his head and looked at Naruto.

Being stared at by those big black eyes, Naruto didn't even dare to move, he was very nervous, his hands were secretly clenched, sweating.

"Okay." Naruto heard Sasuke say, still Sasuke's usual tone, with a little indifference and flatness, as if what Naruto said was just a very ordinary little thing, not worth mentioning at all.It's as if Naruto is not the tail of the crane in the class, nor is it the monster that everyone in the village shouts and beats.

"Then after school, let's practice shuriken together."

Sasuke continued, and after finishing speaking, he lowered his head again and looked at the scroll in his hand.

Naruto stared at Sasuke with wide eyes.

He didn't understand why Sasuke could always say such earth-shattering words with such an indifferent attitude.

For little Naruto, Sasuke's every word can completely change his world.

It's like living your birthday every day.

Naruto made a wish secretly in his heart, and Sasuke heard it, and then Sasuke helped him realize all his wishes.

Naruto didn't want to be alone anymore, so Sasuke held out his hand to him.

Naruto longed for a place to go, so Sasuke acquiesced in his approach.

Naruto was afraid of feeling empty in his stomach, so Sasuke stuffed his whole world with bentos with smiling faces on them.

Naruto wants to be Hokage.

So Sasuke said, after school, let's practice shuriken together.

To Naruto, this sentence is just saying.

"Then from today, I will help you become stronger and become Hokage."

In Naruto's world, this phrase has two meanings.

First, no matter how unbelievable words he said, how unbelievable thoughts he had, Sasuke always believed in him unconditionally.

Second, no matter what he wants to do, Sasuke will help him without hesitation.

——This is the most touching confession that Naruto has ever heard.

And this, after countless verifications, has never been broken.
