You
I look at you from a distance and my heart skips a beat.
The way you smile, the way you walk, the way you talk, your entire mannerism has me entranced its mystery. Even your eyes held a sparkle like no other. I touched my forehead thinking that I must be really crazy.
Want to know why?
I love you...
I don't know where, I don't know why and I don't why it happened. It just did. It hit me like a train wreck one day when i watched you from a far. You were my best friend you know. I went through the list as to why I loved you. I fell in love with your smile, your laughter, that faint dimple on your left cheek, the scar under your right eye, the eternal happinesss that you seemed to emit, your vulnerable side that you only reveal to me. Yes I fell for all of those and many more. But I couldn't tell you for fear of ruining our friendship.
A year passed and still I did not tell you. My best friend read me like a book, she told me all the signs were there to reveal that i loved you. So she egged me on to tell you which I eventually would have anyway because I can never keep things bottled up.
March I spilled the beans to you, I was so nervous as to what you'd say. So much so that my eating and sleeping habits went haywire. Once I told you it was like a huge wait was lifted off of my chest for a split second before your response hit me like a punch to the gut.
"I'm sorry but I think we're better off friends for now."
I looked you in eye and smiled. I told you it was okay as you looked at me worridely like I might break any second. Honestly that look could not have been more well placed than at that moment in time. You asked me am I okay and I just nodded and said: "I'm just peachy." By God was that the biggest lie ever!
My heart felt torn but I wasn't going to let you know that not by a long shot. It was too much to handle. So here I am standing at the edge of the cliff rethinking my decision about letting everything go. Letting you go. So this is goodbye Itachi.
I love you...

Tragic ending I know but I couldn't help it. I neededa reprieve from all that sappy happy fic writing so here you is by no means anti-sakura. No flames are welcomed. Hope you enjoyed it.
