Drabble Title: Perfect World
Genre: General/Romance
Summary: Maybe.
Naruto sometimes wonders what it would have been like in a perfect world.
Maybe the Kyuubi would never have existed, and his parents would still be alive. Maybe he’d have a mother to bake him delicious cookies and a father to grin and tell him that he was proud of him. Maybe he’d be the pampered prince of the village - the son of the Yondaime, instead of the demon they all thought him to be.
Maybe he’d be considered a genius, instead of a moron. Maybe he’d reach the rank of Jounin at fourteen, Anbu at sixteen, and Hokage at twenty-five. Maybe he’d be respected instead of being scorned and hated.
Maybe he’d be happy.
And what about Sasuke’s perfect world?
Maybe Sasuke would not have had to live in his brother’s shadow. Maybe Sasuke’s father would have loved both his sons equally. Maybe Sasuke would not have had to fight for his father’s approval every step he took, only to find him apathetic to everything he did. He was, after all, only the spare to the Uchiha throne.
Maybe Itachi would never have gone psycho and killed their entire clan. Maybe Sasuke would not have had to swear vengeance on the brother he had once worshipped and looked up to. Maybe Sasuke would not have felt the need to betray Konoha and run to Orochimaru in an attempt to gain more power to defeat Itachi.
Maybe Sasuke would be happy.
But then again, Naruto realizes, if they hadn’t gone through what they had gone through, maybe they would never have become as close as they are now. Maybe they’d only be polite strangers. Maybe they would not have fallen in love.
And even if they had fallen in love with each other, maybe their families would not have approved of their relationship. The Uchihas were a proud, arrogant clan, and Naruto seriously doubted that they would have looked kindly upon the fact that one of their heirs was in love with another boy. Naruto’s own position as the Hokage’s son would also have made things difficult for them. People did, after all, have expectations from you when you were important, like finding some nice girl and marrying her and producing heirs.
When Naruto comes to this part of his musings, he’ll usually thanking God for all he has right now.
Maybe the perfect world isn’t that perfect after all. The life he and Sasuke are living now might not be a bed of roses, but at least they aren’t completely miserable either. Maybe they should be happy for what they have.
Maybe the world is already perfect enough now that they have found each other.
End.
