With the soft sound of the door being closed...

Uchiha Sasuke sat down next to the bed again, and the hand that was caressing the top of the girl's hair fell to her cheek. He came slightly closer, lowered his head, and was about to apologize when he heard her say...

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, I really didn't mean to do it just now." She stretched out her hand, gently wiped the water stains on his body, and said with guilt in her eyes, "I just accidentally knocked over the cup."

"I know." Uchiha Sasuke nodded, "You are not the person who would do such a thing intentionally." He knew this very well. Moreover, "The one who should apologize... is me."

The Uchiha belt also nodded and said: "One thing is another, I deserve an apology for what happened just now, and you really deserve an apology for what happened last night."

"..."

"You just left without saying a word. Do you know how worried I am alone? I don't know what made you unhappy, and I don't know if you will really go to Naruto. I want to find you, but

I’m worried that you’ll be angry, and I’m extremely worried when I stay in the house. I’m worried that you won’t have a place to sleep at night, I’m worried that you won’t be able to sleep well even if you sleep, and I’m worried that your arms will hurt...” Maybe it’s because you’re still feeling very uncomfortable.

, as she spoke, there were some tears in her eyes, "I am really, really worried! I have been worried all night!"

Then at dawn, I fell asleep in a daze, and when I woke up, I was in this, um, "fever" state.

There was a sudden surge in the young man's eyes, and he thought: Oh, this is really bad, I want to kiss her again.

However, this is definitely not possible.

If it were possible, everything wouldn't be like this.

Holding her face, he raised his right thumb and wiped the corners of her eyes lovingly, and whispered: "I'm sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't have left you alone and hurt you."

Worried all night long.”

"..." She lowered her eyes and said nothing.

"..." He waited patiently for her answer. In fact, it didn't matter even if she didn't forgive him. He was already mentally prepared accordingly.

After a while...

She raised her eyes to look at him, slightly puffed up her face and said, "Say it again."

"Um?"

"Say it again!"

Uchiha Sasuke reacted and said again: "I'm sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't have left you alone and made you worry all night." After a pause, he couldn't help but get closer to her.

His face was in contact with his forehead, his eyes met and he whispered, "I promise, I won't do this to you twice, and it will never happen again."

Even if they were separated, he would never leave without saying goodbye.

...and said goodbye solemnly.

She blinked and showed a small smile: "Then... I forgive you."

"..." Are you forgiven so easily? In this case, it is easy for others to take advantage of you and make things worse.

"Then..." she asked in a low voice, "Sasuke, are we reconciled to each other and reconciled?"

He replied affirmatively: "Forget it."

"Yeah, yeah~" Her smile suddenly became brighter.

However, through the movement of their foreheads touching each other, he felt that her forehead was really, really hot, so he took the initiative to retreat, raised his hand to hold her shoulders, and whispered: "I just took the medicine, please lie down for a while."

"Well..." She nodded and whispered, "I feel a little dizzy and have a headache after sitting for a long time." It feels so uncomfortable to be sick...

"Then lie down quickly." Uchiha Sasuke helped her lie down, then found the towel that had fallen on the bed when she got up before, put it on her forehead again, and covered her with the quilt.

He asked, "How do you feel now? Are you thirsty? Are you hungry?"

She felt it carefully and then answered: "My head is still a little dizzy and painful, but it is much better than when I was sitting; my body feels very hot and I have been sweating; I am not very hungry, but I still want to drink water."

"Want to drink some water?" Uchiha Sasuke stood up immediately, walked to the table, picked up the cup that Uzumaki Naruto had placed on it before leaving, poured another cup of water and walked back.

At this moment, he hated his own disability extremely.

Because he only had water in his right hand, he couldn't even do such a simple thing as bend down and pick her up. He could only watch her face turn red, her forehead sweating, her eyes moist, and she gasped slightly.

Suffocating, he sat up with some difficulty, took the glass of water from his hand, and drank it all in one gulp.

"...are you still drinking?" he asked with some bitterness in his heart.

"Um."

So he went to pour water again.

After drinking two or three more glasses of water, she seemed to have replenished the water lost in her body and was no longer thirsty.

However, when he turned around and walked back again, she did not lie back down, but continued to maintain her sitting position.

"Why don't you lie down?"

"...Sasuke, I'm sorry."

"...Didn't they reconcile just now?" He sat down on the edge of the bed in confusion, turned his head and asked, "Why are you apologizing all of a sudden?"

"Suddenly I remembered that I still had something to apologize for." She raised her hand and lightly hit her head. "It was so hot here that I forgot about it just now."

"So," he asked confused, "why do you want to apologize to me?"

"I'm sorry." She reached out and grabbed his sleeve, raised her head and said seriously, "I completely forgot about the past."

"..." No, this is not her fault...

"I also forgot how the two of us got along in the past," she pursed her lips, showing a guilty expression, "The behavior last night was normal for a couple, right? But... I considered that a rejection.

I killed you? I'm sorry...I, I don't know what I was thinking at the time, subconsciously..."

"..."

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, I will try harder to remember. And then..." She raised her other hand, and gently held his face, just as he had done before, and held it tightly.

Then, he suddenly raised his face and boldly approached.

"!" The black-haired boy widened his eyes slightly.

The next second, he only felt a soft and hot kiss on the corner of his lips. It was so short, like the moment when the wings of a butterfly vibrated.

"...I'm sorry." She quickly pulled back, looked at him with slightly red eyes, and whispered, "I...I tried my best, but it seems I can only take the initiative to this extent? I will...ah..."

She let out a low cry.

Because the person in front of her embraced her into his arms without any warning.

Uchiha Sasuke closed his eyes and hugged the person in his arms tightly. At least at this moment, he didn't want to let go because he couldn't let her see his expression at this moment.

——What did he do?

——What did the despicable person do to her?

——Such a bad joke deceived her to this point.

So, why would a shameful liar like him have the face to appear in front of her all day long?

after a while……

Uchiha Sasuke felt that the person in his arms was gently poking his shoulder with his fingers. He asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? My head hurts and I feel dizzy again?"

As he spoke, he let go of her.

Uchiha shook his head and whispered: "No, it should be because the medicine has taken effect and is better than before. But I suddenly remembered what Sakura just said. The two of us are so close now, will I be infected?

You?"

Uchiha Sasuke thought: Idiot, Sakura must have lied to you. It looks like you just have a fever and no symptoms of a cold. Normally it is not contagious.

but……

He said sincerely: "It would be good if it can be contagious. It is said that if it is transmitted to the next person, the previous person's disease will be cured."

He would rather have a fever for her, because in the final analysis, this matter is all his fault. He himself is the biggest culprit and should bear the most responsibility.

"But, Sasuke, if you get sick, I will also be worried." She raised her head and said with a smile, "Then, I will try to get closer to you, hoping that you will infect me again."

Uchiha Sasuke raised his eyebrows: "Then I will try harder to get it back?"

"Then I'll bring it back again!"

"Then I..."

…

After a little childish struggle, the two people came to their senses and laughed in unison.

Because the Uchiha belt was really uncomfortable, he subconsciously pressed it against the chest of the person next to him. He cupped his fists and covered his mouth and said with a smile: "You pass it to me, I pass it to you, and in the end we become a 'perpetual motion machine for fever'?"

Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help laughing. What kind of strange word is this?

He didn't have so many emotions at first, but when he was with her, he seemed to have a lot of emotions again.

"Okay." He laid her down on the bed again and said seriously, "Tsunade-sama said that you need to take medicine seriously and have a good rest. Then, you need to drink water and eat, so that you can get better as soon as possible."

She grabbed the edge of the quilt with both hands and nodded obediently: "Yes." Then she asked in a low voice, "Then can I take a bath? I feel like my whole body is wet and sticky now, so uncomfortable..."

"No." He rolled his eyes at her, "Absolutely not until I recover." He still wanted to take a bath, why didn't she say she wanted to take a bath?

"But it's uncomfortable! It's uncomfortable..." She stretched out her hand from the quilt, gently pulled his sleeves, and deliberately softened her tone, "Sasuke... please... okay..."
