Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto! I'm happy with the ending but if I actually own Naruto, I'd create a Hinata-harem.


(Gaara's POV)

There are things that I would like to tell you but can't. It might be the reason for you to leave me if you'll know. I don't like keeping things from you but if it's the only way to keep you, I will. It's not because I'd like you to suffer or anything, it's just me who doesn't want to suffer.

What will you do if you found out that I'm not the one who's meant to be with you forever? Will you hate me?

Yes. It's been going on since forever. Ever since I've found you.

Back then, you were really happy with him, and I knew that both of you were meant to be together from the very start. But some things are uncontrollable, such as my feelings. When I watched you every single day during that time, I found out that I fell in love with you.

I didn't mean to, but my heart hurts whenever I see you smile for him, ever since that day, I vowed to not let my heart hurt ever again, that's when I decided to find you when you're born again.

Yes. I'm an immortal being. And I'll never tell you that even in the future. Because what you knew about fate is all a lie, because I've been your fate ever since I loved you.

I was able to find you when you were born once again, I found you first and that's the reason why I was able to make you fall in love with me before he does.

We were happy, but your time is always short. You always manage to slip away from my hands and just die. Maybe it's fate's doing to make me suffer and to set us apart. To get rid of me. Fate has been doing its best to return you to where you truly belong.

I never gave up.

Every time you were born again, I always find you and make you fall in love with me again.

The cycle of our, or my, love continued.

Maybe it's fate's way of saying to just give up and let the truth happen. To not to disrupt the natural flow of your life or else, fate will take it just to restart everything once again without me.

But I never did.


"Gaara-kun…" she said while looking up to her boyfriend's face, her head resting on Gaara's lap while he's playing with her long navy hair.

"Hm?" he hummed questioningly

"Do you believe in fate?" she asked innocently

Gaara's eyes went wide for a millimeter, his mind went to what he has been doing ever since he fell in love with this girl. Does he believe in fate? Obviously not.

"Yes." He said to her. Even though he said the exact opposite of what he believes in, he must say that to make her believe that fate is indeed real, to make her believe that what they have is the real fate.

She smiled genuinely at him and he felt a pang of guilt, because that smile really belonged to someone else.

"Then I'd like to thank fate for bringing you in my life." She said honestly to him, Gaara wondered what her reaction would be if he tell her that fate isn't working for him, that the truth is, fate has been trying to break them apart. That he's been finding his way just to be in her life.

"Don't thank fate, thank love. Even though there's fate, I still believe that love is what truly matters." Was all he ever said.


A/N: This was made during the GaaHina week. I'd like to write multi chaptered fics but unfortunately, I do not have enough time and energy to do so. I have a lot of scenes going inside my mind but I could never write it down because I'm too lazy to do so, or if not, I'm too busy. *life*

So, what do you guys think about this one? Did you like it? Please leave a *kind* (hopefully) review! Thank you :D
