….It's my secret. That I intended to keep it hidden until the last day of my life came, but I was afraid, so afraid that I wouldn't tell you....Sasuke

‘Promise’

Naruto x Sasuke

#NaruSasu

Japan 1594

….It's my secret. I intend to keep it closed. Until the last day of my life came, I was afraid, very afraid of it. That I wouldn't tell you....Sasuke

A 37-year-old young ninja with black hair. The front hair covered one eye and was sitting under a cherry blossom tree. while eating rice balls with only one hand left to use Thin lips match the slender face. Even though he's 37 years old, he still has the charm of the hottest guy in the ninja world. When I was a teenager

Sasuke looked at the falling cherry petals. While reminiscing about the ninja village he was protecting, he hadn't gone back for two years. The children must have all grown into teenagers, and Sarada herself has grown into a woman. I guess he'll have to go back and appear as a deterrent to young men who want to flirt with his daughter.

I thought so. Thin lips stretched into a smile. Even if you say that However, he knew that Boruto was there to help him. At the mention of his "best friend's" son, Sasuke's smile fell. ...What will happen to that doctor now?...

'Thump!' The sound hitting the top of the cherry blossom tree signaled the appearance of someone. Sasuke's heart skipped a beat. He didn't think of the person he was thinking of. will appear immediately Sasuke knew this without even turning up to look, because with the chakra he could sense, the chakra of the 'Nine-Tailed Fox' that was available only to Naruto...

"What wind brought you here, Naruto?" Sasuke asked, still fiddling with cherry petals in his hand. But then the person appeared in front of him. Instead, make sakura petals. fell out of his hands

“Uncle...”

Sasuke looked up at 'Boruto' who called out to him in a soft voice. With a slight gasp from the rush to get here.

“Boruto...why? What's wrong with Naruto?!"

A tall figure stood up. He couldn't conceal his condition. How restless is it? Why is the nine-tailed fox inside Boruto?

“Let's hurry and go. Let's go find your father..."

Before Boruto could speak, Sasuke opened the Sharingan Sharingan that his hair had closed before the portal opened....

Konoha Village Hospital...

A tall figure with orange hair lay calmly on the bed. His face was pale and he lay staring at the clean white ceiling. His palms were firmly held by his wife and daughter. Next to him were his other close friends, Sakura and Sarada, all four of whom were looking at him with stern eyes. After sending Boruto out to go after Sasuke.

“Sakura-chan....How many more days can I stay?”

“I don't know....but you're not dead yet. It's considered that the Nine-Tailed Fox is very kind to you. Haha, you idiot!”

Sakura answered her best friend, who was still smiling with her breath falling. Before saying softly, 'Kurama is so kind.'

“Sakura Hinata...I won't be living in this world anymore. Can I say something? Just the two of you..."

The pink-haired girl didn't answer. Before nodding, he asked Himawari and Sarada to go wait outside first. A young woman walked over and held the hand of her best friend. He also dragged a chair and sat down next to Hinata.

"Sakura Hinata, actually to me Sasuke...that guy is very important to me....Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Naruto said as he averted his blue eyes. that everywhere it will be bright But today it's gloomy. Until it seemed like the sun would go out every moment.

“I understand and have always known. And you kept it all along. You did your best, Naruto. Please do your own thing. You've always done the right thing. Without caring about your own feelings, you're... the craziest thing... but that's it. If you don't do that There wouldn't be Boruto, Himawari, or even Sarada....hee hee hee."

Hinata squeezed his hand tightly. And cried even harder after Sakura finished speaking. Naruto himself had tears streaming down his face.

"I'm sorry, both of you. I'm...sorry."

"Naruto-kun...no need to say it. We understand. Hee hee hee."

Hinata spoke in a commanding tone. Before the portal It will be opened in the middle of the room where Naruto is sleeping. The owner of the story with golden hair looks at the newcomer. before smiling while the person who steps in There was only a blank stare. But even so Naruto knew that.

Sasuke tried to control his feelings. Seeing him in this condition

"Hi....I haven't seen you in a long time."

The remaining people in the room They walked out knowingly. Just leave it two young men Playing a game of staring at each other

“Can I hold your hand?”

Naruto spoke in a pleading tone, Sasuke didn't answer. He just came and sat down on the chair next to the bed. before reaching out to hold him with one remaining hand.

“Why did you have to give the nine-tailed fox to Boruto?”

Sasuke asked, still holding hands with him. His eyes were still staring at his hand as he asked.

“Because I know I can't take it anymore, keep it or take it off, I'll die anyway, because the Hokage's work is very hard. Kurama's Chakra It eats away at me every day. Even though Kurama didn't intend to, if he still kept it. I might die without knowing It's better to take it off. At least I still have time to tell you something…”

"tell what...."

Sasuke looked away from his clasped palms. Meet his azure blue eyes.

"I've always loved you, Sasuke...."

Naruto felt the pressure on his own palm.

"I know....you said it all along that I'm a friend..."

“Not like friends. Sasuke...I love you. The way people love each other Not like a friend...."

Naruto looked at the face that was covered in black hair. Naruto felt a slight tremor from the person in front of him, before his palm felt wetness dripping down... that guy was crying...

“I intend to keep it for the rest of my life because I am afraid that my feelings will not reach you. And I'm going to lose you. I'm afraid...so afraid, Sasuke. But you know what...the day I realized that I wouldn't live in this world anymore. I'm afraid that I won't say those words. Haha. How crazy is that?..."

Naruto looked at the figure as the tremors continued to increase. Along with the tears falling harder and harder against his palm.

"But now I'm about to lose you, Naruto...and me, what can I do?!" You only make the decision alone! Think for yourself! That your feelings didn't reach me Because you keep throwing the word 'friend' at me! I always said I didn't want to be friends with you! But you're so naive! And now...

Now you say it now. When you won't be here! You...are the craziest!!”

Naruto grabbed the chin of the person holding his hand and turned him to look him in the eye. Sasuke's bloodshot eyes appeared. Naruto had never seen Sasuke cry that hard. His heart hurts...it hurts so much. A palm wrapped in a bandage Lifted it up and tucked a strand of black hair behind his ear. Revealing the Sharingan Sharingan Accepting the long, slender face that Naruto found to be charming. exceedingly....

"I'm sorry, I didn't think you would...."

“You're crazy!”

Naruto smiled at the words of the man in front of him. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. As if it were a warning sign that his time was short, Sakura was right that Kurama had already been kind enough to him, considering his father and mother were stripped of their Nine-Tails chakra. Still alive spoke a few final sentences to him. But this...it's been a long time for him.

"Naruto!" Sasuke was shocked and gripped his hand tightly. As soon as he showed a tortured face,

“Sasuke, can you promise me this?

“See you next time. If I speak my feelings Don't deny my love...I'm afraid....”

“You have to promise first. You said that, you idiot!”

Naruto gave Sasuke a small smile. Before the last words came out of his mouth.

'I promise....Sasuke'

Naruto came out of the bathroom. Whistling in good spirits before seeing his own 'best friend' standing in front of the mirror using a hair dryer With the condition of wearing a student uniform with only a few buttons attached. and wore only boxer shorts Showing off beautiful long legs in front of the mirror.

A tall man with bright golden hair. Standing with arms folded, looking at the person in front of him with fascinated eyes that couldn't be closed. That's right...he loves his best friend. And I've loved you for a long time too.....but he intended it. I will keep my feelings. because of fear of damaging something precious standing in front of him So afraid...

Naruto walked over and rested his chin on the other man's shoulder. before speaking in a pleading tone on the other side

"Blow it for me -3- "

“My hair is as short as a frog's tail. Walked past it and it was already dry! Go ahead and get dressed.”

Sasuke pushed the other's face away. before laughing at the behavior of the person who was offended before continuing to blow dry his own black hair After that, dress properly. to go to the group with Naruto Today he had class at the same time, at 9:00 a.m., but today he finished earlier, at noon, while Naruto finished at 1:00 p.m.

Sasuke studies at the same university as Naruto. He himself studies ophthalmology, while Naruto studies engineering.

“Today you have finished class and come to wait in front of the faculty. Let's go find something to eat. A newly opened dessert shop at the entrance of the alley is said to be very delicious.”

"I don't eat dessert..."

“I know. Just go eat with friends. I'll stop by and buy some tomato juice. There's half a box left in the refrigerator, okay?"

“Ummmmmm, alright.”

"very good!"

Naruto ruffled the other's soft black hair. before being barked at by the person in front of him Before taking each other downstairs, piling on motorcycles to send the other person to the group before turning around in the car to go to their own group.

Naruto sat and watched the teacher teaching in front of the classroom with boredom. A thick palm flips the phone around. Along with unlocking the screen, a picture of him and Sasuke appeared over and over until his friend Kiba couldn't stand it.

“Why press turn on and off the screen? The sound is so loud I'm annoyed!”

“Who gave you the ear, Kiba!”

"Oh, wait a little, I'll be able to meet your 'wife' soon!"

“Ai Kiba! How many times have I told you? Don't call Sasuke that, that guy has nothing to do with me!"

Naruto shouted at his friend in front of him. He didn't like it when his friends teased him and Sasuke like that. If Sasuke heard, he might misunderstand. Or you can just hate him. And that's what he 'feared' the most....

“Oh, let's keep it real! I saw them stuck together like nougat!”

"Dammit Kiba!"

“Naruto-kun, it looks like you've understood the part. Group work You just do it alone, is that good?”

"Uh.... Sorry."

The professor sighed slightly. before turning back to teaching Naruto turned and bared his teeth at Kiba. Before the phone he was holding vibrated slightly. along with the message of Sasuke says he's finished school. Naruto smiled at his cell phone. He turned back to studying when the teacher began to glare at him again.

The signal sounds for the end of class time. Naruto rushed down from the building. Kiba's voice shouting curses at him came loudly down the stairs.

"Oh my gosh Naruto, where are you going in such a hurry?!" Your wife isn't going anywhere!"

“Dammit Kiba! I told you not to say things like this!”

Naruto's cry causing classmates to walk down stop looking interested

“What the fuck is wrong with you? I'm just pretending to be teasing. If you don't like it, don't be upset! Eh! Or do you really 'like Sasuke'? Are you 'gay'? Hahaha.”

“Damn it! I don't 'not like Sasuke' and I'm not 'gay' either!”

Naruto leaned forward towards Kiba. while holding the collar of the other person's shirt tightly Until the buttons on the other person's shirt came off. With the enormous strength that Naruto had

As soon as Naruto Shouting in the other person's face The surrounding noise suddenly quieted down, as if someone had turned off a light switch. Naruto saw Kiba. His face was alarmed, as if he saw a ghost behind him. The tall figure slowly loosened his palm. Before turning around to see someone he most didn't want standing here.

"Sasuke...."

The other party didn't answer anything. Just turned and walked quickly away from him. Until Naruto had to rush after him and grab the other person's wrist tightly.

“Sasuke, that is...no. Kiba is just teasing. I....I didn't say you were gay..."

Sasuke looked at the other's face. that sent a pleading look his way With a face covered in sweat, the people who ran after him

“Let's go back to the room...”

Inside a square room, two people were sitting silently next to each other on the bed. Until finally Sasuke He said, breaking the silence.

"I'm going to stay in Juko's room for a while..."

Naruto turned to meet Sasuke's eyes. as if crying As soon as the other party spoke, they would go to the room of a friend studying veterinary medicine named Juko....

"Why...."

“I don't want to cause you any trouble. Your friend mistook you for being gay because I..."

Naruto stood up and walked over to kneel at the end of the bed in front of Sasuke. The thick palm held the other's hand tremblingly. ....What he fears the most It's the loss of the person in front of you....

“No, no, no one misunderstood, Kiba, he was just teasing. Gentlemen, don't worry. I will definitely not let anyone misunderstand you. Please don't go..."

Sasuke looked into the eyes of the man in front of him. while just smiling as if fully matching the gender of the person in front of him

"Better not. I don't want to be with you....right now."

Sasuke pulled his hand out of the other's grip. before walking to pick up some clothes for the bag casually That action made Naruto I heard a broken voice in my own head. A tall figure walked over and pulled out a backpack from the other party. Before speaking in a voice that made me feel goosebumps when I listened to it.

"I told you not to go!"

Naruto snatched Sasuke's bag. Ready to swing onto the table to eat next to. Until the white vase falls and scatters on the floor.

“What the hell is wrong with you? Let's calm down first and then we'll talk!”

Sasuke shouted at the other party. before walking away But a thick palm pulled the other person back. Until Sasuke's back Banging against the wardrobe Until it shakes

"no! Why? Do you really hate me?! They teased a little, teased a little. You can't even stay with me! How many years have we been friends? The script is unacceptable. I did it and walked away! Are you crazy?!”

'Shock!'

Naruto face Swinging with the force of the punch of the person in front of you. For someone as stubborn as Naruto His body didn't hurt that much. But his heart hurts until the tears flowed out.

Naruto looked at the sweet face of his best friend that he had always loved. The other person's eyes were bloodshot. Tears streamed down her cheeks. Naruto could promise himself. He had never seen Sasuke cry this hard.

"Let's not meet again, please...."

Naruto had no more words to hold him back. He let Sasuke grab his bag and walked past him until he heard the door close.

“Oh my!”

The blonde haired owner picked up a nearby chair and threw it towards the door. until a loud noise before walking to the room door with a heavy fist. Until it was a small hole. before walking over and laying down on the bed And lay there like that for 2 days....

18 Feb 2018   (12.45

n.)

The tall figure woke up with a strong heartbeat. Blue eyes slowly looked around the room for a long time. After his heavy eyelids opened, "Naruto" lay with his face buried in a large pillow. with another half-face buried in a white pillow Now there are tear stains that have expanded widely. Until there was not much of a comfortable place to sleep.

A tall figure lay spread out on a six-and-a-half foot bed that Naruto now felt like was too wide after "someone" disappeared....

The room's condition now shows how much the war has been through. scattered water bottles The wooden door was dented by his heavy punches. Or even pieces of a vase that are almost completely broken. A war caused by "holding back" someone else from going. The tall figure held the other back with all his actions. But I didn't know that.

To be able to stop all of this There is only one thing to do and say. He didn't choose to say it until last night's "dream" made him finally decide.

“Sasuke? He didn't come here.”

Naruto still greeted the tall young man. who told him about Sasuke While still feeding the large parrot that still clings to the mountainside

“Thank you, Jugo....”

Naruto nodded with swollen eyes. The cell phone couldn't contact Sasuke. I called and the phone was always turned off. Or should he call that guy's brother......

"Oh, hello, Itachi. I mean..."

'Sasuke is at home. Hurry and take that pillow back...'

Before Naruto could ask, Itachi's words were hurling words at him. Until he almost rushed towards Sasuke immediately.

“Th...thank you. I'll hurry!”

'Wait a minute Naruto...I really don't like seeing my little sister cry. I think you'd better hurry and tell that guy if you have something. Don't make easy things difficult.'

"I understand...."

Naruto responded with tears in his eyes. That's right...he always thinks for himself. Decide for Sasuke How to feel But today he knows. The matter is just a little simple. Just say it. all his feelings Everything..in his heart And he's not afraid to regret it. Because that doctor had already promised.

No matter what, there's definitely no way to ignore him.....

It took him 2 hours to drive after he traveled back home to get a car to drive out of the provinces.

Naruto drove at the speed of life. If the father was born, he would know. There will definitely be complaints.

A luxury car turned into the Uchiha family's house late in the evening. Naruto saw Itachi who had just returned from the eye clinic he ran. The young man raised his hand in greeting.

"Hello, brother...I'm..."

"Sasuke, it's probably in the backyard. Go take a look."

"thank you"

Sasuke's house was still decorated in the traditional Japanese style. Because this house has been passed down for more than hundreds of years. The Uchiha are a large family. Therefore, there are many guest houses. The house area is spacious. Around the back of the house if he remembers correctly. There will be a large pond with a wooden bridge leading down to it. On the side was a wide grass field.

When he was a child, he used to live in a house near Sasuke. So they like to play together often. Until he reached middle school, his father and mother went to buy a house in the city. Because I run a real estate company there. Therefore had to move to the city. But he continued to think about Sasuke every day until finally he came to the same college.

As soon as he walked into the backyard The image that appears in front It surprised Naruto. The wide pond is still in the same place. But the surrounding area was filled with sunflowers, facing the setting sun. The yellow color of the sun flower Contrasting with the golden orange color of the sun that is about to set behind the ceiling.

Naruto saw some figures standing with their backs looking at the setting sun. Surrounded by sunflowers The young man smiled slightly before walking down to the other party.

The tall figure stopped at Sasuke's side. who was still staring blankly at the sun, his slender face plastered with a golden-orange light from the sun The more Naruto I miss you so much.

“I like to stand and look at the sun at this time. Because the color is like your hair..."

“I gave it to the house to grow. 'Sunflower tree' has been written for a long time because it is bright 'just like you' "

"Sasuke...."

Naruto slowly picked up the other's body and brought him to face him. As soon as he turned, Naruto saw the other's wrist. Wrap it in a stretch cloth.

“Your hand…….”

“Punched a buffalo and his hand got stuck...”

Naruto smiled at the other's sarcastic words. Before lifting your wrist Gently kissing gently

“The buffalo has come to apologize. Can I forgive you?”

"I don't want to say 'sorry'."

Sasuke said while staring into dark eyes and the tall figure in front of him. Before Naruto smiled faintly. Touch your forehead to the person in front of you. with bright blue eyes Reflected by the orange light that was plastered onto the two people's faces.

“I love you...I've loved you for a long time. longer than imaginable And I will love you forever, Sasuke."

Naruto only heard soft sobs in response from the other side. before pulling the body in front of him into his embrace with his lips pressed against the other's ear

“Don't be rude to me. You...made a promise to me.”

“When did I make a promise to you?”

Naruto hugged the small body tightly. It was as if he was afraid the other party would disappear.

“A long, long time ago, before I died..”

“I was waiting for you to speak....I thought you weren't going to keep your promise...”

Naruto pulled his small figure out and faced him with shocked eyes. before asking with excitement

“You... see...”

“Yes, I have had a dream for as long as I have been planting sunflowers. This...because of you.”

Naruto smiled, eyes closed together. before supporting the other's face Keep your lips close to the other person's for a long time...

It's like a movie that continues until the end. unraveled yarn The book has been torn. Found the rest until able to read to the end

Naruto only knew that Sasuke was a valuable treasure. that he must preserve to the end of his life and forever....
