Naruto, Time of Dawn

Naruto carefully removed the white silk ribbon on Itachi's face, bent down and stared into those dark eyes and asked:

"How about it?"

This was already the fifth day that Naruto had begun to treat Itachi's eyes, but Itachi's condition was really complicated, and Itachi's body could not withstand a large amount of yang power. Naruto had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and decided to treat himself. It took ten days and a half to slowly toss.

Itachi rolled his eyes and found that the previous discomfort had disappeared a lot. Although the progress was not very fast, it was already developing in a good direction. He believed that sooner or later, his eyes would be able to use the pupil technique again.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"you are welcome."

Naruto smiled back. This was the fifth time he heard Itachi say thank you to him. Itachi had to say it almost every day when he came to change medicine, which made him weird.

"father!"

Li Xiao pushed the door open and entered with a faint blush on her pretty face. She must have chased this child all the way from home!

"You agreed that you would accompany me tonight!"

"Hi!"

Naruto responded and increased his speed.

"Hey, Uncle Itachi, how are you feeling today?"

Ever since the child knew that Itachi was Sasuke's brother, he became more and more attracted to Itachi.Just like Itachi said thank you to Naruto, he asked almost every day!There was no intention of being vague at all.

"Much better, thank you Li Xiao!"

Itachi skillfully rubbed the little guy's soft hair, and Li Xiao, uncharacteristically, even gently rubbed Itachi's warm palm.

"Hey, Uncle Itachi, can you celebrate my birthday with me?"

Li Xiao raised his head and looked at Itachi with his big watery eyes full of expectation. Even the coldest person couldn't bear such a cute expression.

"Today is Li Xiao's birthday?"

Itachi was a little surprised. If this was the case, he wouldn't have enough time to prepare a gift for Li Xiao!

"Yes!" Li Xiao nodded, feeling a little proud: "After today, I will be four years old!"

"is it?"

Itachi's expression inadvertently softened a lot.

Sasuke was like this back then.He is small and cheerful. He always pesters me on birthdays and wants to accompany him no matter what.And he was always willing to pamper him, but...after all, he was the one who ruined such a simple and happy Sasuke.

"Sorry, I didn't prepare a gift for Li Xiao in advance because I didn't know."

"no, I'm fine!"

Li Xiao hurriedly waved his hands. He was too soft on accepting gifts today. If he accepted them any more, his family wouldn't be able to let them go!

Naruto also smiled and helped: "Itachi-san, don't give me any more gifts. If you continue to pamper me like this, he will become lawless!"

"Idiot dad, who is so lawless!"

Li Xiao puffed up his cheeks and glared at his idiot father, thinking he was very fierce, but he looked very cute and not lethal at all.

"It was!"

Naruto also took on the attitude of "no quibbling", and once again the whole family got into a fight like children and began to choke each other.

"Ow!"

Sasuke didn't know when he came in. Seeing the "happy" atmosphere, he immediately raised his hand and hit Naruto on the head.

"Sasuke what are you doing?!"

Naruto glared at Sasuke angrily, his blue eyes seemed to have flames erupting, which made Sasuke's heart soften.

"What are you still talking about? Leave me alone outside to enjoy the cold wind, eh?"

Sasuke raised his eyebrows, his cold and arrogant temperament fully displayed but not annoying at all, and he could even hear a bit of arrogance.

Naruto then remembered that yesterday, with Li Xiao's messing around, he had promised Sasuke to take Li Xiao to meet at Yanyan this evening, and now... look at the pitch black darkness outside!It’s well past the time!

"That's what Li Xiao said, not me!"

Listening to Naruto's defense, his voice was loud enough, but it sounded feeble no matter what.Finally, under the silent gaze of the three people, Naruto gave up his sophistry and chose to compromise.

"Okay, okay, it's okay if I'm wrong! Let's go quickly."

………………

Sasuke set up illusions on himself and Itachi. After all, the two of them were still rebel ninjas. If they appeared openly in Konoha, they would definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Daddy, hurry up!"

Li Xiao pulled Naruto and kept urging him.Normally he wouldn't be like this, but today was different. Today was his birthday. He was very happy with the gifts everyone gave him, and even more happy that Uncle Itachi and Uncle Sasuke could spend the night with him.So he doesn't care about the cold image or anything like that!

Li Xiao took Naruto and looked here and there. If he saw something or a book he liked, Naruto would buy it for him. As for the two Uchiha brothers...these two unsociable bosses, apart from following Behind the two people, they nodded from time to time to express their gratitude, but they couldn't even get a word in!

Seeing the two of them rushing into the bookstore again, Itachi couldn't hold back the smile on his lips anymore and said:

"Sasuke, that kid looks a lot like you when you were a kid."

The same way she likes to cling to people she cares about, the same way she has harmless little tempers, but more importantly, it's her appearance.

He was surprised when he saw Li Xiao's appearance for the first time that day. He didn't care much at first, but the more he got along with her, the more frightened he became.Sometimes he even wonders, will Sasuke look like this when he has a child in the future?

"is it?"

Sasuke looked up and saw Naruto standing on tiptoes, trying to get a book for his child that he might not necessarily like.

"maybe."

Sasuke walked over and easily took down the book and handed it to Naruto.

"Thank you."

Naruto showed a decent smile, then handed the book to Li Xiao and asked, "Is this okay?"

Li Xiao flipped through the contents of the book casually and shook his head in disappointment.

"Dad, how about we go to the library."

"I'm not going!"

Naruto took back the book in Li Xiao's hand, and considering his height, he handed the book to Sasuke.

"I don't want to stay up all night in the library!"

You must know that the books in the library are never borrowed without the Hokage's permission. In addition, Li Xiao is too young, so he will naturally have to accompany him if he goes. And according to Li Xiao's obsession with those ancient books... he has reason to believe that if he brings Li Xiao has gone in. Don't even think about getting out without using some means!Just like last time, if this naughty kid hadn't been hungry, he would have stayed up all night in the library!

"whispering sound!"

Li Xiao curled his lips and expressed his dissatisfaction very clearly.

"Okay, don't be unhappy. When mother-in-law Tsunade comes back, you can go and talk to her yourself, okay?"

"OK then."

Li Xiao has always had his own sense of proportion and knows when something is enough.That's why he won't mess around, that's a stupid thing only a scoundrel can do!

A black figure walked past, and Li Xiao only raised his eyes slightly to see Uncle Sasuke's face clearly. Li Xiao pulled Naruto's sleeve and said:

"Dad, can we go to the river for a barbecue?"

Does he... need to talk to Uncle Sasuke?

"This one……"

It was almost winter now, so Naruto inevitably hesitated and worried about the child's health.

"Don't worry, I have a lot to wear!"

The little guy had a bright smile that was irresistible.

Naruto shook his head helplessly, no matter how he thought about it, he was prepared.

"Okay then. Itachi you..."

He was just trying to find a tactful way to say it and let the two brothers go back first, but Itachi got the better of him.

"We happen to be hungry too, Naruto-kun won't welcome us, right?"

Itachi chuckled, but looked at Sasuke.He thought that if he didn't stop the conversation first, Sasuke would be depressed to death.

"Okay!"

Li Xiao stepped forward and grabbed the hem of Itachi's clothes, saying, "Uncle Itachi's craftsmanship is great."

"OK then."

Naruto didn't object, and Itachi's cooking skills were really incredible.

………………

As soon as he arrived at the river, Li Xiao volunteered to catch fish, and he immediately grabbed a kunai and rushed into the river!

"Uncle Sasuke! Come on!"

"I'll help him."

After saying that, Sasuke followed.

Now that it was better, his original plan to fish and play with his son came to nothing, and Naruto could only go to collect firewood with Itachi miserably.

"Hey! Uncle Sasuke, look!"

The cold moonlight shines down, and the child standing on the river has a bright smile, as beautiful as an elf, and not like the fireworks of the world.

Li Xiao hugged a big fish with both hands and ran to Sasuke step by step, his blue eyes shining brightly in the moonlight.

Sasuke took the fish from Li Xiao's hand and threw it to the shore.

"great."

Li Xiaoming didn't say much, but he could see the brilliance in the child's eyes, and even praised him as "great" very naturally, so naturally that he was at a loss.

But he always restrained his emotions, and quickly pulled himself out of this daze, clenched the kunai between his fingers, and threw it out with force on his wrist.

His speed was so fast that Li Xiao didn't even have time to react before one fish after another floated up.

"Uncle Sasuke is so awesome!"

Li Xiao praised and imitated Sasuke's behavior before throwing the fish to the shore.After a while, he threw all the floating fish onto the shore.

"Let's go."

"Hi!"

Sasuke took off his windbreaker and threw it to Li Xiao.

Naruto would have to worry again if the child got sick.

Li Xiao calmly changed out of his clothes that were wet by the river water, and sat down next to Sasuke obediently.

"Hey, Uncle Sasuke. Can I ask you a question?"

"Ah."

"What exactly does Uncle Sasuke think of me?"

Li Xiao curled up and looked at the sparkling river. Feeling a little desolate, he had to bury his head between his knees.

"I always feel that Uncle Sasuke is very far away from me. Even if I sit next to Uncle Sasuke, I still feel that Uncle Sasuke is too far away from me."

Just like the compliment just now, it felt like it was just perfunctory, without any emotion at all!

This feeling was very bad, very bad, and always made him feel aggrieved for no reason.

He didn't dare to look up because he knew how embarrassed he was now.He is Uzumaki Li Xiao!How could the person who decided to protect his idiot father forever be so weak?

"Now, Uncle Sasuke, do you know? Except for that time in Yaowang Valley, you were always taciturn, quiet and sad. And then the way you looked at me became very strange and strange. Uncle Sasuke, can you tell me Why? Why did you change after meeting you in the Uchiha clan?"

It's not that he doesn't know the struggle in this person's eyes when he looks at him, it's that he doesn't understand that even if the other person's eyes are gentle when he looks at him, there are always things that cannot be expressed in words.

His eyes were so contradictory, tearing him apart and hurting him.

His young voice became choked, as if he would cry the next moment, but he didn't. He quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, quickly looked up at the dark night sky and the bright moon, and clumsily tried to pour back the tears.

"Uncle Sasuke, I like him very much. I like Uncle Sasuke very much. Although Uncle Sasuke always looks cold, I know that Uncle Sasuke is a very gentle person. He is not inferior to my father's gentleness at all."

Sasuke finally stopped what he was doing, his midnight eyes unable to look away after seeing the child beside him.

"Sorry, I just don't know how to face you."

The magnetic, deep voice echoed in the ears like a cello solo, easily breaking Li Xiao's last strength.

Seeing Li Xiao who was still pretending to be strong with tears streaming down his face, Sasuke felt heartbroken and he slowly hugged the child.He didn't know what to say. Apart from hugging the child tightly, he couldn't think of any other way to comfort the child.

Li Xiao stretched out his arms and put his arms around Sasuke's neck, trying not to let him see his embarrassment.

His uncle Sasuke has always been so cold and noble. Even if he is in danger, he still retains his arrogance, like a god's mansion, which no one dares to blaspheme.

So don't look at him, he shouldn't show such a cowardly side in front of Uncle Sasuke!

After a long while, Li Xiao took a deep breath and slowly spoke, as if whispering in the night wind:

"Is it because of dad?"

Uncle Sasuke, only in front of your father will you show your little temper, and you will act like a flesh and blood man, not a god.So Uncle Sasuke doesn't know how to face me because of my father, right?

"..."

"Uncle Sasuke doesn't say anything, so I'll accept it as my uncle. But uncle Sasuke, you can do anything, except your idiot father, who can't give in no matter what!"

Li Xiao tightened his arms, and his tears could no longer be controlled, falling one drop after another.

I'm sorry, Uncle Sasuke, I know you like dad so much, but I still stubbornly hope that you can stay as a friend and stay with us.I know this is difficult, but I really like Uncle Sasuke, so Uncle Sasuke, please forgive me for being selfish, forgive me!

Sasuke sighed and let Li Xiao cry on his shoulder.It wasn't until the other party was tired of crying that he pulled the child in front of him and gently wiped the tears from his face.

He knew Naruto, that idiot had Li Xiao in his heart and doted on him.He believed that no one or anything could separate Naruto from this child except death.

Because of this, he didn't know how to face this child!
