"I see"

She smiled softly, on the verge of tears.

"I had hoped that it wouldn't happen this way..."

He turned his head to the side, avoiding her gaze studiously.

"Well your hopes were torn asunder, weren't they?"

He sighed a little and bit his lip, finding intense interest in a crack on the wall.

"Look at me."

He raised his head, and Onyx met Emerald for the first time that day.

"I still love you. No matter what."

He laughed halfheartedly, and pulled her into a tight embrace.

"I will always love you, too."

And with those words, he released her and vanished into the cold night.

"Farewell, Sasuke Uchiha."



A/N: Another one written at around midnight. Maybe I should just become a full time insomniac...
I'm still shellshocked at the fact that I A) wrote such cheesy stuff, and B) wrote a non-yaoi fanfiction. Maybe someone drugged my tea..
