A/N: just a thought I wanted to share. It's set in a modern day AU.

Dear Itachi,
I miss you.
I must admit, this is probably not the best way to start a letter, but you asked me to be direct and honest if I wanted to write to you. So I will be.
I miss you, Itachi. Terribly. It's agony to wake up, and turn around to smile at you, and realize that the bed is empty. To want to ask how you are and not be able to because you're not with me.
You know, I've always found fairytales boring. Most princesses don't do much, they wait around for their prince. I always thought that it was a bit ridiculous. But now, it's me who is waiting. And I am beginning to understand fairytales a little better.
I'm sorry. This part is clearly not what you'd call 'direct'. But it's honest, so I will not erase it.
By the way, I still can't understand why, in the era of increasing informatics, you insisted on letters. I mean, I can understand your dislike of excessive technology, but wouldn't emails work too? They're faster to write and easier to correct.
However, I can see the beauty of a handwritten letter. It's kind of romantic, actually. Is that why you insisted on letters?
Please come back soon. I really miss you, and if you love me, if you really love me like you whispered in my ear before taking the plane, I think you miss me, too.
Yours always,
Sakura
PS: and if it wasn't clear in every moment we spent together, in every embrace , in every kiss we shared, in every single word I wrote in this letter… I love you, too.
