It was too much.
He couldn't handle it anymore.
Damn bastard was always just out of his reach.
Gleaming like a chance at glory, a new slate, a new life.
It seemed as if he would just come to him.
He was always boasting about how he would bring him back, no matter how long it took him.
It didn't matter if he lost himself along the way. He hadn't thought of that possibility when he made the promise though.
The Promise.
Why had he listened to Sakura?
It had made sense back then. He loved Sakura and would do anything to make her happy. Even if it meant having to deal with the Teme all the time.
Now?
He'd rather die.
It was what he had been planning to do.
He stopped himself though.
Heh.
He wasn't even capable of doing that.
Life didn't seem worth it.
But then again he had Sasuke on his mind.
What if he forgot him?
Would it all go away?
He couldn't though.
He still cared.
Sasuke still wasn't worth it,
But maybe,
Maybe,
He could move on.
