[ sasuke doesn't answer, and naruto doesn't add anything else to the air. inches in front of his feet, his bedroom door is closed- it's a barrier he feels but doesn't look up to see. there's a name for this feeling, and it's one he'd tried to decipher all day.
and yet here and now, blanketed in the hours before sunrise, he thinks he finally remembers what it is.
in the span of heartbeats that follow, naruto's hand extends between them- palm turned half up. open, but not grasping. a dozen fears and reassurances hang above them, unsaid. we can still do this, can't we? we didn't change again, we can resonate.

i'll still let you see inside my heart. ]
