So what ifffffff team 7 went on a mission and Naruto gets blinded? When they get back to the village they find out that its (thankfully) short term and Naruto kinda has to deal with it on his own. But its EATING Sasuke up inside because he thinks its HIS fault Naruto is blind so he kinda just barrages into Naruto’s house and tells him that he’ll be taking care of him.
At first Naruto doesn’t want that because like hell will he let that bastard take care of him but then over time he realizes that he does need someone to take care of him.
And even though Sasuke feels guilty Naruto is still an idiot and is such a pain to take care of but then he see’s how lonely Naruto really is and because he’s blind he lets his guard down a lot more easier. He can actually see when Naruto is scared or sad instead of putting on a brave face all the time. And it takes Sasuke by surprise because he didn’t know Naruto could feel such deep emotions like that like the thought that Naruto can be sad just escapes him until he sees it. And he also starts to think that Naruto does have really pretty eyes because the blond doesn’t know when Sasuke stares at him because he can’t see him staring at him.
And they actually come to enjoy each others company and so many people tell Sasuke that they can take care of Naruto and he flat out refuses because he’s starting to really like Naruto’s company and when he’s not acting like a idiot he does have funny jokes and is really nice. And Naruto doesn’t want anyone other than Sasuke to take care of him because he already knows what his day to day life is like - at least that’s what he tells people but Sasuke over hears Naruto telling Iruka that he likes Sasuke taking care of him and Sasuke is actually really nice and sweet and he doesn’t know why but it leave Sasuke with such a warm feeling.
And they have to eat together and train together and after some embarrassment bathe together. Naruto really likes when Sasuke touches him, like on his back, and on his neck because his hands are rough but gentle and Sasuke really likes the little smiles (and sounds sometimes!) Naruto makes when he does touch him. And they have to sit next together so close that their legs touch and neither of them mind and whenever Sasuke stands he holds his arm out for Naruto who always takes it.
And then finally - FINALLY - Naruto can see again and its a little awkward for everyone because they’re not fighting, which is what everyone is used too, but they’re not touching each other or eating with each other and that’s what they’re used to and that’s what they like now.
And one day they just happen to be sitting next to each other again, legs touching, not trying to make it oblivious how much they like it because it might be weird for the other one and when Sasuke stands up he just holds his arm out for Naruto like its his second nature and before anyone can tell him other wise Naruto takes it anyway because that’s what he’s used too and it isn’t until they’re in front of Naruto’s house that it dawns on them what they just did and THEY JUST TURN SO FREAKING RED AND CUTE
Had to get that off my chest!
