Differences
* I really wanted to do a songfic for SasuSaku, so here it is, I hope you like it.
*Disclaimer:I do not own the song, which is called "You wait for rain" by Kyler England by the way. Or Naruto, which is owned by Masashi Kishimoto.
*This is done from Sakura's point of view.
"It's more than a crack in the wall
it's a whole lot bigger than we thought, yeah
a hammer and a nail won't fix it this time
so bring on the wrecking ball."
Every since that day on the bridge when Sauske had tried to kill Sakura after killing Danzo things had been different between the two of them. Even though Naruto had finally convinced Sauske to come back to the village after a long battle between the two of them the damage had been done and Sakura knew that an apology wouldn't fix him trying to kill her. If he wanted a relationship with her, and that was a big IF, then he was going to have to gain back her trust, because he had totally destroyed it on that bridge.
"It's like we've been drifting along
pretending like nothing's wrong, yeah
we play the game, keep up the charade
but when the river runs dry we're on different sides."
Since Sauske had been back he had acted as if nothing had ever happened on the bridge, and he compleatly ignored Sakura even though they trained together every day and they were on the same team. They put up a good front for Naruto and Sai, but when training was over they each went back to acting like the other one doesn't exist. Sakura feared that it would always be this way between them, it always had been.
"You wait for rain and I chase the storm
we just don't see it the same way
you say you want to change but you're never sure
we can't go on like this anymore
cause at the end of the day
you wait for rain and I chase the storm."
Naruto though that since Sauske had gotten back that he had changed a little, i'm not so sure. He acts like he trusts us, but I can't help but wonder if somewhere in the back of his mind he's not waiting for one of us to betray him like everyone else has. He is never quite able to trust us all the way, I wonder if he will ever be able to do that, Naruto thinks so, but I can't help but to have my doubts.
"I was never good at standing still
always got a hunger to fulfill, yeah
don't think you ever understood that's who I am
what we gotta face is we're in different places."
I had finally come to accept at this point that Sauske would never apologize to me for what happened on the bridge, that's just who he is and I had made peace with that. I can see now how very different the two of us are, and though I still care for him and always will, I sometimes wonder if two people who are so different can ever be anything more than friends.
"How'd we ever get so far from where we started from?
The hardest thing about this is I still care
you know there's something better for both of us out
there."
I still care deeply about Sauske, but I am not as sure we are meant to be together as I once was. Will we ever be together? I guess I will have to leave that decision up to him, maybe someday he will come around, but until then I have to accept that maybe the best thing for us right now is to just be friends. After all isn't that how love begins?
