Impenetrable {Naruto Fan-Fic}

Just Like You

Yuyan's POV

"There's no one around to help you, you have no friends and family to save you, you're all alone."

All I remembered was falling into the water after Ino said that, I couldn't swim, so I wasted my breath trying to resurface. I tried to hold in to whatever breath I had for a while, but it's hard to hold you breath for about 2 minutes. After that, I lost consciousness believing I was going to die there.

After that, I felt someone pull me out of my trance. I didn't know what was happening or where I was, but I woke up and saw that I wasn't in my house.

"Where am I?"

I looked around then saw him walk through the door. He had a towel on his head and he looked at me as if I had been brought back from the dead.

"S-Sasuke?!" I jumped off the bed, judging from the towel on his head, he must've saved me. Why? I thought he didn't care? Did he just save me so those girls could bully me even more?! I ran out the room and tried to look for the way out

"Yuyan! Wait!" his voice sounded demanding.

I just stopped against a wall and covered my face. I began to cry, something I hadn't done in the past five years, why did I cry now? Why was I still weak? I trained so much and so hard but I would always be the same. I tried to stop the tears but I just began to sob.

"Yuyan.."

"Why did you help me?! You just made it worse! Didn't you see those girls almost killed me, who knows what they'll do to me now! You even said yourself I'd be better off dead! So why?! Why help me?! You should've let me die!"

I couldn't keep any of my promises to anyone. To Itachi ni-san, to Hisui, Kiyoko, Naruto, Sasuke, and Shisui. What good was I if I couldn't protect anyone?

You're all alone

"I'm always alone, why didn't you just let me go, now one would care anyways!"

I gasped when I was pulled into his embrace. "I'm sorry, please forgive me Yuyan. Please stop crying, please be my friend, please, please, please." He held on tight, he was warm and it felt sooo... right. His face was buried in my neck so I could feel his breath when he spoke which sent shivers down my cold body.

I cried in his shoulder, I didn't know if I was happy or confused. "Please don't cry, don't ever listen to those girls, they're idiots, I won't ever let them lay a single finger on you ever again, even if you don't want to be my friend, I'll still protect you."

"W-What are you talking about?" I sniffled, "Of course I want to be your friend." He pulled me away, holding onto my shoulders and looked straight into my eyes. You wouldn't expect someone as serious and emotionless as Sasuke to have such a surprised look in his face.

I couldn't help but smile a little at him, I felt a little more tears fall down my face. "Wait, you're serious? Even after I didn't help you all this time? And even though I said all those things to you?"

"Why wouldn't I?" I laughed this time. And he sort of laughed along with me, it felt normal, like the way it was before. He looked happy like a little kid, had it really been because I said I'd be his friend?

"You look really great when you're smiling."

He blushed a little and looked away, letting go of my shoulders. "Whatever."

"So the great Uchiha does have some feelings does he?" I teased.

He turned around and pinched my cheeks, something I hated besides when people tickled me. "Hey stop that!" I tried to swat away his hands, "that hurts!"
