Chapter 12
Chapter 12
When Sasuke woke up, his mouth felt very dry and he wanted to drink water.He propped up the bed with his hands and wanted to sit up, but he moved a little, and there was a sharp pain in his chest, and he fell back on the bed with a muffled groan.
"Sasuke, are you awake?"
It should be at night, and I can't see anything clearly. I can barely see a pair of big shining eyes in front of me through the moonlight coming in through the gaps in the curtains.Can't see clearly, but it seems to be blue.
With a bang, someone turned on the light.Sasuke narrowed his eyes uncomfortably, but immediately a hand came over to cover his eyes, waiting for him to adjust to the light. "Where is it uncomfortable? Does the wound still hurt... Wait a minute, I'll call Xiao Ying over."
"No need." Sasuke frowned as soon as he spoke, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
Naruto heard that he seemed to have a bad throat, so he turned to pour water for him.Although the hand covering the light left, Sasuke's eyes had almost adapted.Looking at the whole room, it looks so familiar...Konoha Hospital.It's been a long time before.
Waking up here for the first time, what is waiting for me?
The Uchiha house blocked by seals, the messy streets, the blood stains in the parents' room that were not cleaned... reminded myself that the previous scene was not a nightmare.
The warmth from his lips brought him back to his senses, Naruto half hugged him and helped him up, let him lean on his body, and carefully fed him water.
...Does this crane tail know how to give hot water to patients?Sasuke glanced at him, lowered his head and took a sip to moisten his throat a little, and raised his hand to take the cup when he felt it was all right.
Naruto didn't seem to care about his contemptuous gaze just now, and carefully helped him hold the bottom of the cup to watch him drink.Then he took the cup carefully and looked at his expression: "Sasuke... how do you feel? Where does it hurt?"
"Huh?" Sasuke lazily said the second sentence after waking up, although there was only one syllable: "Where does it hurt, didn't you give it to me? Why don't you want to kill me now, the tail of the crane. I have always been so soft-hearted, You can never beat me."
Naruto really doesn't know what to say, this person...can't he pay attention to his tone when he speaks?Well, the person who pays attention to tone is definitely not Sasuke.Putting the empty cup on the bedside cabinet, Naruto hugged the boy in his arms tightly, being careful not to touch his wound, leaning his head on his shoulder: "It doesn't matter if you can't win...Sasuke always has a way to make me win." There's nothing I can do about you."
This sentence is very convoluted, Sasuke glanced at him, and it didn't feel like the words of such an intelligent person at all: "This surprises me, who is the one who has been clamoring to defeat me before?"
"It was relatively small back then."
"But this is not important, can you take your hand away now."
"Ah, haha... I'm sorry..." Naruto smiled awkwardly, but let go of his hand, and put a pillow on his back. "Sasuke... why are you doing this?"
Sasuke just gave him a cold look, said nothing, and leaned against the head of the bed with his eyes closed.The pillow is a bit hard...it's not as comfortable as the crane's tail just now.
Naruto knew that Sasuke's expression meant that he didn't want to talk about this topic, but he could follow him in other things, but this... he must ask clearly. "I don't understand, why Sasuke let me see that kind of illusion... Actually, you didn't want to kill everyone, did you?"
Sasuke felt that he was really annoying, but it seemed...he couldn't keep himself clean.Slowly raised the hand without infusion and rubbed the center of the eyebrows, and said lightly: "If you don't let you see those, how can you kill me."
Naruto was stunned: "What... what do you want to do?"
"That's what you think." Sasuke gave him a sneering look, and played with the fingers of his right hand on the infusion tube on the back of his left hand, and Naruto hurried over to remove his hand.
It doesn't need to be so troublesome.I'll fix it.Including the tail of the crane.
This was Sasuke's promise to Suigetsu back then, and his decision was to make Naruto hate him.
"Didn't you say that you know everything?" Sasuke looked at him with indifferent eyes: "Don't you know about Itachi and the truth about the Uchiha family being exterminated? Then you should understand, I can't stop , I can't forgive Konoha——I hate Konoha Village."
Naruto didn't say anything, just bit his lip slightly and looked at his fierce eyes.
"So it's impossible for me to give up the idea of revenge. What's more, come back with you, come back as if nothing happened-living in this village, in this group of people living in the peace that sacrificed Itachi's life Among people who laugh without knowing it, why do you think I can do it?
"But... you still said something right."
Sasuke showed a somewhat self-deprecating smile, raised his hand and suddenly grabbed Naruto's throat, his fingers slowly tightened.
Naruto looked at him with an almost puzzled look.
Because... there is no breathlessness or pain at all, Sasuke didn't use any strength at all...?
"You're right." Sasuke's expression fluctuated a bit, that cold look of not caring about anything could no longer be maintained: "You're right...my only deathbed is you...Naruto." The young man's clear voice was a little hoarse: "If the person standing in front of me is you... I can't do it."
Naruto was completely stunned, and slowly stroked the hand that was clasped around his throat, took it off easily, held it in his hand, and helped him warm his cold palm and fingers. "Sasuke..."
"Since I can't kill you, but you have to stand in front of my goal, I can't complete my revenge anyway." Sasuke said lightly, without pulling back the hand held by Naruto: "But I don't want to Living in Muye Village... You can understand, I made the decision."
... Is your decision to die?Die at my hands.
Naruto's heart ached from the pain, and he didn't care what he thought or what he said, so he hugged him directly, hugged him hard into his arms, and relaxed a little when he realized that there was a wound on his chest.
"Told you to let me go."
"No." Naruto's voice was muffled, and he buried his face on Sasuke's shoulder.Most of the clothes in the hospital gown didn't fit well, and Sasuke was thinner than boys of the same height, so the clothes were loose, and his white neck was exposed, and he could smell his body.So... how can he let him die, or die by his own hands? "You're so selfish."
"I didn't deny it."
"I won't allow it."
"So, you are too self-righteous."
"It doesn't matter if you are self-righteous, anyway, haven't you been used to calling me a big idiot all the time? Since you are a big idiot, you are all self-willed, so I won't let Sasuke die...never, and I won't let you again left."
"What do you understand? Do you understand how I feel?"
"Because I don't understand, do you want me to understand?" Naruto raised his head, holding Sasuke's face in both hands, making him look directly at him.Those blue eyes were really angry: "I know that Sasuke lost the most important person, you are very angry, you want revenge. You said that I don't understand you, because I have nothing from the beginning, I can't Understand the pain of sudden loss. So, you want me to understand?—You killed Itachi, so you want me to kill you?"
Sasuke didn't want to mention Itachi's name at all, and was annoyed when Naruto mentioned it, but he shook slightly because of his last words.
Are you the most important person at the end of this crane?
So important, is losing yourself worse than losing Konoha's companions?Then I want to see... Naruto's face at that time.
Seeing Sasuke smile, Naruto was even more annoyed: "Do you understand! Do you understand what I mean!"
"Why do I have to understand? I don't have any reason to understand you. Go think about you." Sasuke pinched his wrist, but he had no strength after waking up from a serious injury, so the deterrent effect of this action was greatly reduced: "Why should I To think about your thoughts, whether you are sad or what?"
"That's right, you can't do anything to me." Naruto said coolly.
"..."
Sasuke never knew that even Naruto made people want to kill him when he spoke in such a tone.
Naruto saw Sasuke pinching his collar and glaring at him fiercely, but he couldn't say anything after staring for a long time, so he showed a somewhat smug smile: "So, don't be embarrassed, Sasuke, I understand very well. of~"
"What do you know again—stop being so self-righteous!"
"Ah, I really don't understand anything." Naruto was still smiling, looking at the boy's angry black pupils: "But... I will gradually understand everything in the future. I must understand everything about Sasuke. In the future, I will not let you have the opportunity to say this sentence again."
Sasuke was speechless for a while, sometimes he really wanted to know where Naruto's persistence came from.
It's just that he didn't think about it, and he who has been refusing to stop for a while and insists on revenge... is also a big fool who is so persistent.
Naruto carefully took Sasuke's hand away from his collar, and gently rubbed the back of his hand that was already bruised: "So don't move around during the infusion... Is Sasuke an idiot?" Get up and go to the side I took a tomato out of my fruit basket, Sasuke's eyes lit up slightly, but he still looked like a fool pretending that I didn't care, Naruto wanted to laugh when he saw it.Throwing the tomato in the past: "Sakura and Ino washed it and brought it, you can eat it directly. Do you like tomatoes? I don't know. It seems that those girls saw your bento when they were young. The conclusion... Tsk, by the way, you are really popular."
Sasuke took a bite of the tomato, and the sweet and sour juice was instantly satisfying.It's hard to get fresh tomatoes outside, so he ate happily, eating half of them before he gave him a blank stare as concern: "Big idiot."
"Aren't you going to say anything other than scolding me!!!"
"That's super stupid."
Naruto jumped angrily, but he didn't beat him out of the principle of not bullying the patient—but he wouldn't be willing to do it if he wasn't a patient.
Sasuke finished one, and reached out for the second with peace of mind.Naruto glared at him, but still took another one and threw it to him: "...Eating so much, aren't you afraid of becoming a tomato? Tomato Sasuke...sounds very good-woo!"
Sasuke ruthlessly covered his face with a pillow.
