My darling Hayate,

It's been two hours since I last kissed your lips, and all I can do is smile. We've only been away from each other for two hours, and it is not as if you have left the village. You are just on night watch. You will more then likely read this later tonight. I can see you now. You will read this and then smile. You will kiss my cheek and then we will go to bed. But I just wanted to say how much I love you Gekkou Hayate!

Love always,

Irrika

My dearest love,

It has been two days since they found your….found your body. They came and told me, but I already knew. You did not come home that night and at the time of your death…I felt a pain in my chest and I knew…I just knew my darling.

We put you to rest today. I kissed your cold lips and wanted so badly for you to sit up and lace your fingers in my hair, pull me to you and tell me it would be all right, but you didn't! I watched them lay you in the cold earth! A little piece of me went with you then. I fell to my knees, wept, and wanted to follow you. I know I can not. I have to live…for both of us. I will always love you Gekkou Hayate!

Now and Forever,

Irrika

My one and only,

Two weeks have gone by since we have put you to rest. Right now I am watching them put you name on the memorial stone. Everyone says how proud I should be…how happy that you're name will be with all the other heroes. But I'm not my love. I have not felt anything except pain and sorrow since we put you in the ground. It has been two weeks since I've felt anything stirring in my heart. All I can do is hurt my love. I do not know what to do anymore. I just want to die and be with you, but they will not let me. Genma, Iruka, Kakashi, and Anko are always here. They are the only things keeping me alive. That and your memory. Genma and Iruka are here the most…keeping watch on me and trying to make me smile. The have been my life line. We have some wonderful friends. I love you my darling Hayate.

Love you for all eternity,

Irrika
