How did we get here? I lay in the sleeping bag inside the dark green tent, listening to the Naruto's even breathing while he slept that was silencing the faint chirping of the crickets just outside the tent.

I tilt my head slightly, drawing my eyes away from the top of the tent, to look at Naruto. He was curled up in a ball while facing away from me, wearing an oversized plain black shirt that he wore almost every other day to bed and some dark blue basketball shorts.

He had been mad at me since we got into the fight right after putting up this stupid tent, he cooled down right after, but I decided that wasn't enough and relit that fire for some goddam reason because I'm a genius.

I grasp his shoulder and shake him ever so gently, "Naruto?" I call for him, "You awake?" He suddenly shoved my hand off of his shoulder and pulled his knees closer to his chest.

I really fucked up this time, "Naruto, I'm sorry," I apologize. It stays silent for a moment before Naruto spoke up, "Sure," he said in a monotone.

He didn't mean that, and I know it, "Naruto, please forgive me," I plead. "I tried already," he snapped at me, "But you didn't want to move from the fucking past now, don't you?" he asks me in irritation.

I wince. I didn't hear Naruto curse that often, only if he was angry, like the time when someone shouted at him in public and almost ended up knocking them out if I hadn't interfered.

"Naruto, please?" I beg him. It stays silent. "I'll make it up to you," I no longer see Naruto's back facing me, but I see his beautiful tan face, and his eyes looking straight into mine.

"I'm listening," he states. A faint smile is barely visible on my face, "How about we do whatever you want for a day?" I ask him, looking at him with a caring gaze.

He contemplates silently for a moment before answering me, "Then, can we go camping?" "Fuck no, never again," I
respond almost immediately. He laughs a little before I join in with him.

We laugh for a bit before the laugh turns into a giggle. We stop to look at each other before breaking into laughter once again. Once our logic returned to us, we stayed silent.

"So we're good?" I question him. He smiles and nods. It wasn't a moment later until I pulled his into a kiss. The feeling of his lips on mine was familiar and just as good as I remember.

We both pull away from the kiss simultaneously, right after I pull Naruto into a hug, pulling him out of his sleeping bag, and into my arms.

"I love you. You know that?" I tell him, gazing down at Naruto, who stared back at me in return, his eyes a beautiful ocean blue bright like usual.

He buried his face into my shoulder, "I love you too," he muttered. I feel my heart skip a beat before I tighten the embrace, and we slowly drift off to sleep.

Kakashi

What kind of emotional rollercoaster was that? They just went through literally 15 emotions in the span of 8 minutes. What the hell- I'll just leave. These two are strange.

Sasuke

I awakened up to the light dimly radiating through the fabric of the tent, which somewhat irritated my eyes, trying to stare directly at it.

I try using an arm to cover the light from hitting my eyes, but struggle to move it. I look down to realize that Naruto has my hand and his intertwined with each others.
