Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but if I did, Haku would have never died!

"Hey, it's snowing!" Naruto shouted.

"Really?" Sakura asked. She stepped out from underneath a tree team 7 was sitting under. She stood next to Naruto, who had his head up towards the sky.

Sasuke walked over next to them.

"Remember when it snowed in the land of the waves?" Sakura asked absent mindedly. She looked up at the grey sky like Naruto.

Sasuke nodded.

"I met that kid in the forest earlier," Naruto said. "He was nice."

"He shouldn't have died," Sasuke said softly.

Sakura nodded.

"And Zabuza really cared for him, didn't he," Sakura added.

"Only because I yelled at him," Naruto said.

"He cared for him before you met him, loser," Sakura said.

"Well I helped."

"No you didn't!" Sakura hit him over the head. Naruto yelled back and they went back and forth like they normally do.

Mean while, Sasuke was looking down the small street. He noticed a faint outline in the distance. The outline made up two people, a tall person with a large sword on his back and a shorter person wearing a robe-like outfit.

"Rest in peace, Haku," he muttered. "We'll remember you when the snow falls."

The figures turned around and the shorter one smiled at the group. Naruto and Sakura stopped when they saw the figures and watched them.

Sakura smiled back and Naruto waved to them. The shorter one waved back and the taller one smiled slightly. Then they turned around and walked away into the snow covered street.

The group smiled, and Naruto picked up a handful of snow and threw it at Sasuke. Sasuke glared at him. Sakura picked up a handful and threw it at Naruto. And as the other teams joined in, the biggest snowball fight started in the Konaha village. And only team 7 knew the reason why.

I think that was sad. I was almost in tears as I was writing that in school. January 9 is Haku's birthday. And the weird thing is, on January 9, 2007, it snowed where I live. It was amazing.

Remember Haku when the snow falls. And if we do, he will truly never die.

Happy Birthday, dear Haku. Happy Birthday to you.

P.S. Yes, I already know I'm obsessed. Please don't leave me reviews telling me that.
