Sasuke and Naruto had this similiar scenario happen at one point when they fought Haku. Sasuke saved him from Haku's needle things and proceeded to call him a "scaredy-cat." They seem to call each other this little nickname a lot so maybe Sasuke will end up coming to halp Naruto, acting all aloof and whatnot like nothing ever seemed to happen between them, and call him a "scaredy-cat." lol i dunno just a dumb theory. Even so, if that were to happen, I'm sure Kishimoto will make it happen better than I had poorly described it. ._.
I think we're all just overanalyzing it. We'll just to have to wait and see won't we?
