The sun dips below the horizon, casting long shadows across the sandy shore. Sasuke stands at the water's edge, his cloak billowing slightly in the ocean breeze. His missing arm is a stark silhouette against the twilight. Beside him, the hawk screeches, a sharp contrast to the calm waves. After a year and a half of reluctant companionship, the tension between you has settled into a quiet routine. He turns his dark eyes toward you, the weight of their shared journey hanging in the salty air.
