“You know you’re very lucky,” Sakura said, leaning over the table to reach for the soy sauce by Sasuke’s elbow, “getting a second chance like this.”
Sasuke just watched her, head tilting, flicking dark eyes toward Naruto before they settled back on the rose-haired woman. Sasuke finally shrugged, leaning his chin on a closed fist and closing his eyes.
“I’ve been running for a long time.” Sasuke replied softly.
“Well, now you don’t have to run anymore.” Naruto said around a piece of sushi, reaching for another piece. “You’re not eating.”
“I’m not hungry,” Sasuke said. “I’ll eat something later.”
“Eat something now. You’re going to keep saying you’re not hungry until the point you become nothing but bones.” Naruto admonished. “Eat.”
Blinking, Sasuke just held back the sigh and reached for the last piece of salmon sushi, popping the piece into his mouth before Naruto and Sakura could gang up on him. If that happened, there’d be no way that Sasuke could walk out of the restaurant without gaining a few pounds. Naruto watched him like a hawk until Sasuke ate a few more pieces of sushi and finished off a bowl of rice, and just as Sasuke was about to pop a piece of sashimi into his mouth, Naruto just gave a slow nod, allowing Sasuke to stop force-feeding himself.
“So, Sasuke,” Sakura ventured, smiling at the brunette, “what are you planning to do, besides guard Naruto?”
Sasuke tilted his head. “I don’t know… I’ll find something.”
“You could come to a few classes I’m teaching,”
“Healing jutsu?” Sasuke asked softly.
Naruto swallowed his mouthful of rice and nodded. “Yeah. Medical stuff and a few other things.”
“It’s for the older ninja. Jounin rank and above.” Sakura explained. “Mostly a refresher course, since we’ve gotten reports from Suna and Kiri about a new illness.”
“Things children shouldn’t know.” Sasuke said softly. “Things they need to be protected from.”
“Pretty much.”
Sasuke just nodded, leaning back in his chair. The classes would be beneficial in the long run, really, because it wasn’t like Orochimaru or Uchiha would deign to help him should a medical emergency arise. It would be easier to learn skills on his own, under the watchful eye of an expert.
I am an expert, Orochimaru muttered.
Uchiha rolled his eyes.
Sasuke just covered up his sigh and smiled at Sakura. Or he tried to at least. His lips just didn’t cooperate like he wanted them to, and he ended up giving her a sort of half-smile. Sakura’s returning smile was nervous at best. He let Naruto hammer out the details with the rose-haired kunoichi and turned inward enough to listen to Orochimaru and Uchiha argue and still keep himself conscious about what his Hokage was speaking about. It was a nice feeling, sitting here, being included even though it wasn’t like he was paying attention. It was just nice being wanted. Of course, if they knew who – or what – he was, it would never be like this. Worse come to worst, he would be someone’s pet project, something to be studied. Maybe even something to be experimented on. Sasuke decided it wouldn’t be prudent to dwell on that thought, simply because he had other things he had to worry about. Namely, his two parasites fighting over whom should control the body.
“Then I’ll see Sasuke tomorrow?” Sakura asked, finally truly smiling. Sasuke just blinked and looked at her, taking a moment to review the conversation he’d missed. Class at nine in the morning, hospital, second floor.
“I’ll be there.” Sasuke said softly.
Sakura nodded and stood up, placing a few bills on the table to cover her meal. “Then, tomorrow, Sasuke.”
“Uh-huh,” Sasuke said absently, watching the woman leave. A moment later, he turned to Naruto, frowning. “She doesn’t like me.”
Naruto blinked. “No, she doesn’t trust you. There’s a difference. It’s going to take time, Sasuke, for people to start to trust you again.”
“But you trust me.”
“I’m an idiot like that.”
Sure. Uchiha said rather nastily. He only trusts you because he’s got the Kyuubi.
Shut up.
Sasuke sighed quietly. “I’m free to go to the class then?”
“Yeah. I’m in the office then anyway, and besides, Hinata will be there.” Naruto’s voice held a tiny bit of disdain. Sasuke could only smile.
The two paid for their meal and left the restaurant, talking of inane things. Those seemed to be best, Naruto had decided, because Sasuke seemed to always clam up when the subject of Orochimaru was breached. He even froze when Itachi was mentioned, his eyes glazing as if he couldn’t quite figure out what the speaker meant when bringing up the subject of his brother. So they talked about the weather, they talked about training, about the Academy’s newest genin, and of people they knew. Sasuke talked of things that pleased him the most, and Naruto mostly listened. It seemed to be an easy existence. But not everyone was pleased with the idea of a nukenin being so close to their village’s leader despite the precautions the Hokage had taken to ensure his own safety.
Their new peace was soon to be shattered.
The pair just hadn’t realized it yet.
