    Summary

    At 3 a.m., Sasuke answers a call he knows he shouldn’t.

    Naruto is crying on the other end, and just like that, every wall Sasuke built to move on begins to fall apart. They were supposed to try—that was the promise. A year apart, other people, proof that what they had was real.

    Sasuke tried. He really did.

    But Sakura is asleep in his bed, and all he can think is that it should be Naruto instead.

    Months after their breakup, Naruto still sounds like he never really left—and Sasuke is starting to realize he never did either. Because no matter how hard he tries, there’s still a space in his life that only Naruto can fill.

    But Naruto is hiding something. Something that explains the distance, the late-night calls, the way he keeps pushing Sasuke away while still reaching for him in the dark.

    A story about love that refuses to fade, the lies we tell to protect each other, and the devastating cost of letting go when you don’t really want to.
