Naruto You

The person in front of him stopped after hearing these words, and Naruto also stood still, looking up at the person in front of him from half a step away, feeling vaguely that he might have stepped on a taboo again...

"I live alone."

The dark clouds in the sky gradually thickened, the wind blowing obliquely from the corridor became more and more intense, and the raindrops suddenly fell, pattering on the floor and leaving drops of water. Sasuke turned around, took a step forward and looked up at the sky outside the corridor, his neck was raised in a beautiful arc, his expression was not very clear in the dim light, "It's raining, Naruto can stay here... "

He asked this softly, and his voice was immediately overshadowed by the sound of rain. Naruto followed his gaze and looked out. The raindrops falling outside the corridor quickly changed from sparse to dense in a short period of time, and suddenly there was a torrential rain. For a moment when neither of them spoke, the empty Uchiha mansion seemed to be drowned by the sound of water.

Naruto stretched out his hand to feel the force of the rain, and then retracted it. His fingertips were hurt by the raindrops, and that kind of pain came to his heart a little bit strangely. He turned his head to look at Sasuke, and the black eyes he met in the dimness were like As if black holes usually suck people in, Naruto subconsciously nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Uchiha said that he doesn't come back to this mansion very often, and no one has added a bedding or anything in the mansion for many, many years. The breath of life there is very faint, and except for one bedroom, the other rooms have not been touched for a long time. Old, so in the end the two decided to live in the same house without any objection.

The rain at night became much weaker. Naruto opened his eyes and looked at the dim ceiling in the silence after the lights were turned off. Sasuke, who was sleeping on the side, could hardly hear his breathing. It's like sleeping alone in this house, empty, waiting for the dawn of unknown time...

Thinking like that, I gradually felt that dawn was a very long thing, so long that I had the illusion that I had lived in this mansion for such a long time to wait for the end of the night, so long that I felt a strange sense of despair, as if falling into Struggling in the pitch-black abyss, but knowing very well that even at dawn, there is absolutely no possibility of surviving...

Naruto took a deep breath, trying to escape the sense of desperation that kept falling, pulled the quilt on his body, and turned his head slightly in the dark to look at Sasuke, who was an arm's length away. The person lying on his side faced him. On this side, there was no sound or movement...

I must have fallen asleep.

Naruto guessed, and turned back to look at the ceiling. The dark world couldn't see the specific things clearly. The chaotic dark colors seemed to be tangled together to form a monster rushing towards him. Naruto closed his eyes and forced himself to think about nothing. Falling into a dream and suddenly awakened——

But I don't know what I dreamed.

He seemed to have turned around and fled before seeing the specific dream, and woke up from the dream...

Naruto sat up to catch his breath, and then lay down again after a while, and then fell into a dream that he couldn't look at again in the chaos - woke up again, sat up - and so on.

Silent night.

When Naruto sat up for the third time, Sasuke, who had been lying on his side without making a sound, suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Naruto's arm in the dark night, and pulled Naruto who had just sat up with all his strength. In his arms, his strong arms tightly hugged Naruto's waist from behind, and before Naruto had time to react, he said softly, "Shh, don't talk."

When Naruto turned around, he could feel the tip of his nose against his ear. At such a close distance, the hot and humid breath lightly touched the skin behind his ear, itching, but he couldn't bear to push it away, "Don't think about it, go to sleep, it's all over... …I'm here."

I will be here.

The voice next to his ear carried a soothing power, and Naruto slowly calmed down. He didn't turn his head, didn't speak, and didn't push Sasuke away. In the especially deep night, he just nestled in that embrace as instinctively, tightly The sound of the heartbeat on the back, thump, thud, seems to be transmitted through the body, each sound isolating the sound of the lonely ticking rain outside...

Just close your eyes and wait for the dawn together.

until dawn...
