what if naruto x haku

how we feel part 1

Naruto stared into Haku's eyes for another moment before the other looked away and dropped the hand touching his cheek.

"Do you still like that pink haired girl?" Haku asked suddenly.

"Sakura?" Naruto scrunched his nose up as he responded. "No. That crush had died a long time ago."

"Who do you like now Naruto-kun?" Haku asked.

"No one, I guess." Naruto answered after a few seconds. He didn't know where this line of conversation came from, but he was willingly to go along with it since it was with Haku, Haku who was supposed to be dead but was alive and sitting on his bed.

"Do you prefer boys or girls now Naruto-kun?" Haku asked. Naruto started when he was pinned with those sharp eyes, demanding an answer.

"I don't know." Naruto said but when Haku's glare only got sharper he continued, "I think I wouldn't care about gender. I want someone who would accept me, someone that can see past the lies, someone calming and supportive. I just want someone who would love me and never want to leave." He could feel moisture gathering in his eyes as he spoke, but he ignored it.
