The Mystery of Love Hurts *ON HOLD*

Chapter 5: The Start of the Lovers Mystery

Flashback:

Naruto’s POV:

I’m glad that  I invited Sasuke over. We’re having a great time…though I feel a bit embarrassed about crying earlier. But now we’re just sitting on my bed watching tv, well, he is anyways. I’m fighting to keep my eyes open. I guess I gave in to my tiredness, because the next thing I knew, I was laying down on the opposite side of my bed and Sasuke was about to cover me.

“Sasuke? What are you doing?”

“Y-you fell asleep I was...putting you to bed..” His face was so flushed, I could tell he was beyond embarrassed, but I thought he looked cute. I couldn’t hold back anymore, there he was, completely adorable and putting me to bed, so I tried my luck. I smiled and pulled him over to me. I ignored his protest, and kissed him. I could tell he wasn’t expecting me to do this, but I was so happy that he returned the kiss. I wanted to stay like his forever, but breathing was becoming an issue and we both had to pull away for air. Now we were just starting at each other.

“I’ve been wanting to do that since you came to the school.” I put my forehead onto his looked directly into his eyes. His eyes were perfect, huge, solid black eyes that stared directly into your soul.I didn’t want to look away from them, I didn’t think there was anything that could distract me from their beauty, well until he kissed me again. It was my turn to be a little shocked, but I quickly melted into the second kiss. Neither one of us wanted to pull away, it was quite obvious, but the lack of air was getting to us again and we had to break apart once again.

Repeating what we did the last time, we stared into each others eyes. Then I realized something, not only were the eyes I was staring into were the ones I loved, but they were also the ones I hated, and were terrified of. They were just like hers. I stared at him, terrified for a moment before I spoke.

“Y-your eyes...their...their just like hers…”

Sasuke’s POV:

What? What was he talking about? My eye’s looked like her's? Who’s her though?

“W-what are you talking about? Who is ‘her’?” I was actually kind of worried, did my eye’s look like one of his ex-girlfriends or something, would he hate me for it? What should I do if that’s the case? He didn’t answer me, instead he pulled me into a hug and my shirt was becoming wet again. He was crying again, and all I could do is hold him, and hope he would calm down. I feel so helpless like this, I have no idea what he’s talking about and he’s upset about it. How do you comfort someone when you don’t know why they’re crying?

“Hey, Naruto, if you don’t mind...could you tell me why my eye’s remind you of someone? I really want to know. I don’t want to have you look at me and see someone you don’t like, it could drive you away from me, and I would hate for that to happen.” I started to pet the top of his head, and he seemed to calm down some. He pulled away, and moved over on the bed, motioning me to come to him. I moved over to the empty space next to him.and put my head on his chest.

After a few moments of silence and him playing with my hair, he finally spoke.

“I’ll tell you, it’s only fair that I do. I don’t need you worrying about me or me leaving you.’ He smiled and kissed the top of my head. I couldn’t help but smile, how can he be crying one minute and then make you seem like the most prized thing in the world the next? I swear, he’s magical or something. I nodded, letting him know I was ready to hear his story.

He started telling me about his nightmare that he has all the time. It was heartbreaking, hearing how he was able to remember such a traumatizing event from when he was still just a baby. It brought tears to my eyes as well, I didn’t even know how to respond to how much pain he must feel. Being able to remember that is one thing, but to have it constantly come back to haunt you as a nightmare must be horrible. He stopped when he got to the part where a women followed his mother to his room, and created the whisker-like scars on his face.

“She’s the one I was talking about. She really does have the same eyes as you. I swear she could be related to you or something.” He looked down at me and looked into my eyes again. I blushed slightly, his gaze was filled with an overwhelming sense of love. “The only difference between your eyes and hers is how kind yours are. Her eyes were filled with so much hate, greed and were so murderous. It was terrifying. But,” he pulled me closer to him and hugged me again, “your eyes are filled with too much love and kindness, you could never be like her.” I hugged him back, and failed to keep my silent tears from falling. It’s insane how he can say something like that and truly mean it. I never thought anyone could see past my ‘Uchiha’ presence and see how much I actually feel.

“Hey, why are you crying now?” he pulled out of our hug and looked at me. He wiped away my tears and smiled, “Let me guess, what I said about you was very unexpected and it made you so happy you cried?” See what I mean? He sees right through me. I couldn’t even answer him, but I think he knew he was right because he asked if I wanted to hear the last bit of his story. I nodded and he continued telling his nightmare.

***************************************************************************************************

“And that’s it.” he said after saying the last bit of his story. “I never got told who did it though. They kept it a secret from me and everyone else. The police covered it up, saying it was just a robbery gone wrong or something like that. But I heard it was a rival company that did it. Like the owners of another big company were the ones that actually broke into my home and killed my parents, and they died as well, since my parents put up a good fight.” He sighed and rubbed his eyes. I got a great idea right then. I found my voice, that seemed to have disappeared while he was speaking, and told him what I was thinking.

“Maybe we should do our own investigation. I know a few people in the police force, I think I can get them to give us some information on your parents case. We might even be able to figure out who did it.” I looked up and was met with arms wrapping around my neck, practically choking me.

“I would love to do that! You would actually do that for me?” I swear, if it wasn’t for the fact that he was strangling me right now, I’d hug him too.

“Y-yes…..I...would….but….can….you...let go….can’t...breath..” it basically came out as a whisper, but he heard it and let go.

“Sorry...just that, I’m really happy that you would go that far for me.”

“Naruto, remember this: I will always go that far for you. You mean that much to me.” It was my turn to pull him into a hug.

“Thank you Sasuke.” He hugged me back, “We should probably get to bed now, it’s way past midnight..” he pulled away from the hug and yawned. I smiled. Naruto is probably the only person able to change the mood of a situation that quickly.

“Yeah, I guess so.” We moved around in the bed until we found ourselves a good spot to sleep in. Naruto moved so his head was resting on my chest, and I wrapped my arms around his torso, making him move closer to me.

I was really close to falling asleep with him laying on top of me when he spoke.

“I love you, Sasuke.” I blushed, I don’t think I’ve ever heard such a beautiful phrase like that in my entire life. I was so happy to hear those three words paired with my name, and I smiled.

“I love you too, Naruto.”
