You smiled again...
That beautiful white smile that is known as my day and my night. How can anyone be so incredibly beautiful?
And you aren't just beautfiul on the outside, but on the inside as well. Too many people walk by you and think, 'what a monster' or 'keep away from me'. But the only thing I can think is, 'what a masterpiece' or 'stay one moment longer'.
I never noticed this connection we had until that year when you persuaded me to stay home, and not work under the council of Orochimaru. You became my best friend and my worst enemy within the first year we met, but somehow it always came back to 'what would I do without you?'
You saved my life on many occasions. Once on a bridge, once at the Valley of Ends, and a few times in between. You are my saviour of mind, body and spirit. Without your smile and wild colour I'd still be arid and half-mute most of the time. Without you... I'd be colourless.
Everytime you smile, I can feel the warmth returning to my heart. I can feel the reds, oranges, yellows come into my mind to set me at ease.
Everytime you smile, I can breath.
Everytime you smile, I'm happy.
In the sunlight you're my friend and confident.
In the moonlight you're my princess of sanctity.
I spend every day with you, but the night seems too unbearable.
I tell you not to stay, although you still spend every light in my mind.
You are Naruko Uzumaki.
That was my letter to her. That was me being incredibly pathetic expressing my feelings. Of course this would never reach her eyes. I don't want it to.
Imagine your best friend. That one person you can love and hate at the same time. Imagine throwing them a surprise party just to show you that you love them. Not as a birthday gift but as a genuine expression of your care. You worked weeks on the party, made the decorations yourself, stole their address book just so you could invite everyone they actually relatively liked, and created in some way a beautiful portrait or painting of the two of you. Now imagine them laughing. Laughing at your hard work and care. Shrugging off every detail, but then coming to you telling you about their life. You laugh and smile with them but then go home and whimper about your inner loss.
That's what I imagine telling Naruko the truth will be like.
She laughs everytime a guy 'confesses' to her. She sees it as a joke, everytime.
