Rain
~*~*~*~*~*~

Sasuke opened a bleary eye, wondering what had woken
up. He lay still for a while, listening to the drumming of the rain on the
rooftop and the sharp whistling of the wind. The storm. Was that what had woken
him up?
No.
His bedmate was
shivering, the tremors wracking his body. The brunette glared half-heartedly at
the pathetic-looking form. A gust of wind caught his attention, and his
transferred his glare to the open window.
They were experiencing
the peak of summer, the sun an unforgiving flamethrower in the sky and the
streets shimmering in the heat. The nights were no better. The air was flat and
still, with the quiet sizzle of crickets too tired to chirp. His lover had
taken to sleeping half-naked, sometimes completely in the buff, throwing his
boxers at the opposite wall with a frustrated “To hell with this!” He was also
the one who opened their windows in a fool’s hope that a breeze might just be
enticed into their room.
But tonight, he had
warned him that there was going to be a storm, and as usual the idiot ignored
him, throwing the shutters open and stripping as he made his way to bed. And
now, here he was, shivering so much that the bed shook, while the storm blew
icy gusts of air into their room.
Who had to fix the
problem? No one else but the now-awake Uchiha Sasuke, that’s who.
He closed the window and
locked it for good measure, but he couldn’t take his eyes from the inky
darkness. How many times had he stood like this, forehead against the cool
glass, staring out into the night while the rain pattered, echoing in his soul?
Always, he thought of the same thing, wondering whether it was better to die,
to give in to that welcoming darkness and to be free of his mock-existence. The
monotonous rhythm the he had put up with, a life that was composed of endless
days and nights, full of people who looked at him with unseeing eyes and saw
only the outside, saw only the all-important Uchiha name and the red of his
Sharingan and what he had made himself to be, the merciless, aloof avenger.
They never knew, no one did, about the nights he spent in his cold, empty room
with his hand over his chest, wishing that his life would just end, that
someone would break the wall of impenetrable ice he had put up around his heart…
“…’suke…”
The sound of his name
mumbled in a sleepy, yet needy voice broke his trance. Blinking the bygone
shadows away, he looked back at the shivering lump and went back to bed,
snagging the fallen blanket on the way. He settled back onto the pillows and
his lover instantly turned to him, as it instinctively seeking his presence.
Small hands caught at his shirt as a face burrowed into his chest, and he idly
wondered why the idiot had finally stopped shaking. Shrugging, he pulled the
blanket over the bare shoulders anyway.
A hand disentangled long
enough to push the blanket off before returning to clutch at his body, Long
legs pushed insistently between his and soon he was entangled within slender
limbs. He sighed and reached over the naked back to grab the blanket again,
this time pulling it over both of them. “It’ll keep you warm, baka.” He said, the
gruffness of his voice contradicted by his gentle caress over the other’s chin.
“Don’t need it…I like
this better…” came the drowsy reply, muffled by his shirt as the idiot pushed
closer to press a soft kiss on his chest. “You keep me warm better than
anything else…”
Sasuke smiled, burying
his face in blond hair and pulling the lithe form as close as it could get in a
clumsy parody of a hug. The ice of the past had given way long ago to this
perpetual sunshine.
“You keep me warm too…Naruto.”

Surprise, surprise! Wasn’t
that a complete shock? A SasuNaru (cue the gasps)
(hits herself) like I’d
write anything else. I’m hopeless.
Hope you all liked it!
