Sasuke : POV


It wasn't necessary for you to save me; you should have just let him kill me.

My life was meaningless, compared to yours.

When he wrapped his arm around your fragile body, and crushed you against the tree, I almost couldn't bear it.

I'll admit it - I was trembling, because I was scared of loosing you.

You are precious to me.

Too precious to loose.

I watched you tilt your head back against the tree in misery.

I saw the agony on your face; the pain in your eyes.

Then I saw your head fall down against your chest, and your eyelids close over your sea foam eyes.

I felt like I was going to cry, like I had only one other time, on that one night...

I wanted to look away from your beautiful, dying face.

I couldn't.

I made an effort to stop staring at your rosy pink hair.

It was a wasted effort.

Then, after what seemed like years, his grasp against your too-fragile body was released.

Relief first flooded over me.

Then worry.

I still was unsure you were alive.

I rushed to catch your unconsious body before it hit the merciless forest floor.

I caught you in time.

I felt you breathing.

I let out a silent breath of relief.

Then I realized something.

I care.
