Prologue

His mind refused to acknowledge it. It could not accept the fact that he was gone. They were all gone now. The last of his friends had died. Slowly tears started to flow from his eyes. It had been a long time since he cried. Sobs started to wrack his body. He desperately clung to the body of his lover. The one person he had given his body and soul to.

"Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuukeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!" Naruto started to yell hysterical. It wasn't fair! Why did they have to die when he would stay forever young, looking like he did when he reached the age of 20?

At first it didn't strike as conspicuous. His friends would joke because he still looked like a boy in his early twenties when they had reached their thirties. They all thought he just aged a little slower. But the jokes slowed down when they became forty and he still looked as if he had just reached adulthood. They began to worry, and Sakura proposed to examine him. It became clear then, Naruto would not reach past the age of 20, all courtesy of the nine-tailed demon fox in his body.

And with this realization it became apparent that it would be difficult for them to continue their relationship. Naruto would stay forever young while his lover, Sasuke, would grow old and die. At first Sasuke wanted to break up. He wanted Naruto to find someone younger. He did not want to trouble him with is age. But Naruto had yelled that it didn't matter to him. He loved Sasuke and always would. Aging would not stand between them. They made passionately love to each other that day. Both needing the reassurance that they loved each other and that nothing would and could tear them apart. Many villagers frown upon their realation. Why would this young looking man stay with a man twice his age. But they overcame their burden, and they were happy with each other.

Their friends were hesitant at first, but Naruto was Naruto and they relaxed around him and forgot the fact that he looked so young. He joked around like he always did and was always there when they needed him. He was a great friend, and when they all got married and had children he played with them. But then disaster struck. They had gotten old and life as a shinobi was hard. Lee was the first to die. He was 36 at the time. He got ambushed during a mission, the poison was too much and he died. Ino was next, she left her children and husband. And one by one they fell, until a few of them were left. The 'happy few' became old and wrinkly. Eventually they too died. And they felt sorry for Naruto for when they were already old, he still looked young and handsome. He would forever stay in this world, doomed to lose his loved ones.

And so, there was only Sasuke left. He was already old, he had reached the age of eighty. As he laid on his deathbed he did not wanted to let go of his lover. He kept his hand and whispered sweet words. Naruto sat beside him, anguish tearing him apart. To live forever, without friends and lovers was scaring him. Sasuke was his one constant in his live, the compass he aimed his heart at. And he would fall away. Leaving him alone in this cold world.

"Promise me…love…" Sasuke murmured because he could feel death clawing at his soul.

"Anything" Naruto said, his voice shaking.

"When we meet again, love me as you loved me now…"

"Oh Kami-sama, I would travel the world to find you and love you,…. Sasuke??"

Naruto began to panick. Sasuke wasn't moving anymore.

He began to cry and the light died from the beautiful blue eyes.
