Naruto pov
We had practiced for over an hour and now we were all saying our goodbyes.

Everyone's decided we could have practice tomorrow and i got into sasukes car. I waved one last time to everyone then turned on music in sasukes car.

I know I told myself that I wouldn't ask him any questions yet but my feeling on uneasiness hasn't gone away since we left my house.

I was going to ask him when we got back to my house, I wasn't going to chicken out. In a way I deserved answers and It wasn't going to stop bothering me untill I got them.

I was apprehensive to ask him though.

'What if he isn't ready to talk about it?'
'Would he get annoyed at me?'
'What if I mess up somehow?'
'It'll be fine, he seems like he likes you again just ask him'
'Even if you lose him again it's happened before so it shouldn't hurt to bad right?'
I thought and clutched my phone tightly in my pocket.

He pulled into my driveway and I got out of his car with him following behind. My feeling of nervousness only grew worse as we walked into my house.

I took off my shoes and started thinking up a thousand possible scenarios. I sat down on my couch and I gestured for him to sit next to me which he did.

"You ok? It looks like somethings bothering you" he commented with a hint of worry in his voice.

I took a minute to think and let out a shaky sigh, keeping my eyes on the floor "listen I'm sorry if I'm rushing you, or if I'm pushing the subject but this has been bothering me all day. What made you change your attitude towards me to fast?" I looked up at him then quickly back at the floor.

I saw a look of realization and dread flash across his face "I....think I finally realized the way I had been treating you was wrong. I didn't have any reason to hate you and I want to make it up to you yet i don't know how to. I figured if I started being at least a little bit nicer eventually you would forgive me?" he answered quietly but it sounded more like a question.

My eyes widened in surprise and I smiled sadly yet relived. His reason sounded genuine "I want to know why you forgave me so quickly though" he added.

I started thinking not really sure myself "well at first I wasn't planning on forgiving you so easily, I was going to make you earn back lost time but i couldn't. I had the chance to get you back so i just took it without question even if it would have ended badly"

His eyes saddened and he spoke again "but I hurt you naruto, i know I shouldn't have gained your forgiveness that easily. I'm really glad I did, but why would you let me gain back your trust so easily?"

"Because it hurt to lose you, it hurt for years sasuke. You were the closest person to me and I genuinly missed having you at my side. As soon as I saw the opportunity to have you back at my side again I took it. Possibly quicker than I should have but I'm happy nonetheless" I said hesitantly. My words scared me. I didn't know how he was going to react and for some reason the only things that came to mind were bad.

"You didn't have any doubts? I was a complete bastard to you for ten years and you were willing to take me back that easily?" He questioned in a shocked voice.

I nodded my head but kept my eyes looking away from him. I knew my emotions wouldn't get across. I was mad. Mad that he could be so stupid and mad that he didn't think he deserved my trust.

In reality I knew he shouldn't deserve it but I couldn't help it when it came to him. He had been so close to me and to lose him so quickly hurt more than anything other than my parents passing.

He could probably hurt me a thousand times over and I would still care about him exactly the same. I guess I always had even though I acted the opposite. I took a shaky breath in and looked him dead in the eyes "i guess it's because for whatever reason, unknown to me, I love you. Even thought you're a complete idiot and bastard, something keeps me from hating you" I said somewhat angrily. "whether that be taken romantically or as your closest friend you need to get it through your head that you won't be able to lose me no matter how hard you try" I crossed my arms.
