Bring me to Life
By Animelover5.6
Wuz up? Nother Leesaku sonfic comin' your way. This one called Bring me to Life, song by Evanescence. Hoped i spelled that right. Thank god for spell check! This one is told from Sakura's POV, so enjoy!
Disclimer: I don't own Naruto, cuz if i did the world would probably fall into a black void of insanity.
It was a shock when I first found out. I had no idea after all this time, it was too late. Too late to change what we had into something more. I had actually hoped since Sasuke was gone, maybe we could have evolved our friendship into actual love
But it was too late now. The story had already played out.
And it was one I regret to tell.
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping Somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
When Rock Lee had first approached me during the Chunin exams, stating that he would love me and protect me until I die, I didn't look at that as a whole. I only saw the horrid bushy eyebrows and the ugly green jumpsuit. I didn't see what was really inside that statement; I thought he wouldn't keep to his word.
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
But that all changed in the Forest of Death. He showed up and we were enemies, he defended me with his life and proved to me that he would always be here when I was in a pinch. And I started to believe that, because he proved it.
Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
In the preliminaries, I heard him cheer me on, Have faith in me and what I could do, and even though Ino and I tied, he said I fought well, and that made me happy. Sasuke was still the obvious apple of my eye, and he still cared.
He still loved me.
And when he fought Gaara, I returned the favor. I applauded him and cheered for him with all my life. I saw the fire in his eyes, literally, and knew that he would win, for his shinobi way and for me.
Damn that Gaara.
I heard what the doctors were saying. I probably heard it before everyone else; I just didn't want to admit it.
My protector was gone. He could no longer be there when I was in a pinch.
All I could do was bring him a flower, to let him know that I was there, even though he didn't know it was me. But I no longer had any hope.
And then Tsunade healed him, and I was overjoyed. My knight in shining armor had returned to me. And I brought you more flowers. And we had something special going on, and I finally realized…that I had been so blind to something so right and so clear because of Sasuke.
But by then, it was in all probability too late.
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
Then two and a half years later, He returned to me. He had grown in strength, as well as muscularity was concerned, but not that I had paid attention. I mean, I don't go gawking around to every guy with nice biceps, triceps, and a good chest physique and broad shoulders and a six pack… Okay, I'm rambling. Maybe I did look, once…or twice…okay maybe about five more times, but I didn't concentrate on that. I concentrated on Lee and Tenten. Neji had said something about them going out, and I had gotten a little nervous about it, I'll confess it. I felt like I something in me died that day.
And I realized that I was too late. I had missed my chance on something beautiful.
Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead
All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
How I wish now that I wasn't too late. I want to revive the relationship that could have been…that should have been between us. I don't want to be all alone, not after what happened with Sasuke, please…
Please bring me back to life, Rock Lee.
(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
Bring me to life
Kinda sad, huh. But never fear! Me and my stubborn self can't stand to see Sakura and Konoha's Handsome Devil not together, so this is actually gonna have three chapters, next one Rock Lee's POV. And the third one,all three song fics, by the way, is when they get together. Please R&R I swear to god ifI listen to my cousins iPodonemore time, I'll have six more stories up in three days! Laterz:)
