Naruto and Sasuke aren't mine.
Watch out for angst... friendship, SasuNaruSasu if you perceive it that way. A very short drabble. Sorry I'm late for Valentine's Day.
Naruto writes a letter to Sasuke on Valentine's Day because of a quote.
---
Sasuke,
I've decided to write a letter to you.
Because if I don't even pretend to communicate with you in some way, I think I'll go insane.
Nobody has understood me since you, Sasuke. I still don't really get why you left, why you tried to break those bonds.
Why you didn't break them when you had the chance.
Because if you had broken them completely, I would be dead by Chidori through the heart. But I'm obviously not.
So anyway, it's Valentine's Day.
I'm alone again, Sasuke.
But how're you?
I hope you're having fun with Orochimaru. Yeah. Right. He's probably raping you this very minute or something. When you said that "you would give up your body for revenge," it hit me in more ways than one.
Maybe Jiraiya's perversity is catching on.
So, somebody said to me recently, "Wars will be won and lost. Nations will rise and fall. But a true friend is eternal."
So, I've been contemplating that. Hard to wrap your mind around, eh? Me, contemplating something? Well, I have been contemplating that quote. And I thought to myself, so if that's true, you weren't my true friend to begin with? Those bonds meant nothing?
Or, you're still my friend? It's possible, if not plausible. Not everybody's idea of "friendship" is ramming a Chidori through said friend's chest. But you know, everybody's different, right?
So, I'll cling to that hope.
Because hope is what drives us forward.
Hope, dreams, all of that stuff you would normally find in some mushy romance novel.
But you know, it's true.
