One night to you
Lasted six weeks for me
Just a bitter little pill now
Just to try to go to sleep
No more waking up to innocence
Say hello to hesitance
To everyone I meet
Thanks to you years ago
I guess I'll never know
What love means to me but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
Chapter 1 Returning
He came back after 2 long years. He walked up to the gates, there was fog everywhere, and it was midnight. He looked just the same as he did before he left. His ebony hair, and his mesmerizing, dark onyx eyes. Memories came flooding back as he walked through the village. He remembered how Naruto, Kakashi, Sakura, and himself, went to the ramen stand after every mission. 'Sakura' he thought. 'I wonder where she is?' He didn't dare of thinking going to her house at this time of night. So he started to walk to Naruto's house. 'I wonder what the dobe will think of me returning.' He continued to walk. Finally when he reached the hyper active's house he began to throw rocks at the windows. Finally, after about 20 minutes, he opened the window. "HEY! What's the big idea? Do you even know what time it is? You-you-yo.."
He looked down only to find the Uchiha prodigy sitting on the bench with his arms crossed. "Are you finished?" he asked coolly. "Sa-Sas-Sasu...Sasuke? What are you doing here?" Sasuke just stared at him, 'Moron' he thought. "Hang on I will be right there." Naruto went to his drawer and pulled out his orange jumpsuit. He ran down the stairs to find Sasuke waiting at the door. "So……you're back?" Naruto asked, "For good?" Sasuke nodded his head, "Yes." Naruto hit him in his gut. Sasuke flinched, a little.
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
"Do you know how much distress you caused? Mostly for Sakura?"
"That's in the past, I came to make things right."
"No. Not until you tell me what happened."
"What do you mean? I got my revenge on Itachi, and then I killed Orochimaru. What else is there to know?'
"What do you want now Sasuke?"
He didn't answer. He just early looked at the stars. How the light texture of the moon, reminded him somewhat of Sakura's porcelain skin.
"I realized what I did was a mistake. I hurt Sakura, and so many other people who cared and worried about me. I betrayed the village, and….." he couldn't finish, he couldn't think of anything else to say. "I don't need to explain myself to you, dobe. What matters is that I'm back and I am here to make things right."
Left my childhood behind
In a roll away bed
Everything was so damn simple
Now I'm losing my head
Trying to cover up the damage
And pad out all the bruises
Do you know I had it
So it didn't hurt to lose it
Didn't hurt to lose it
No but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
"You keep saying that. What do you have to make right, you got your revenge and to you that's all that mattered. Now you have nothing else here. As your friend I advise you to really see what you want."
Sasuke couldn't believe this, he didn't understand. He thought that one of his friends would have been happy to see him. Now he was asking him to reconsider what he was doing.
"I want Sakura. I love her, she was the last person to see me before I left. She threatened to report me so I left her on the bench. Before I left I kissed her. I love her, when she see's me tomorrow I will tell her that. Then everything will be how it should've been."
Naruto looked at the ground solemnly. "If only you would have came sooner." he said. The sudden happiness left the genins voice, and it was replaced by regret.
"What do you mean. Is there something wrong with Sakura? Is she hurt?"
Naruto just shook his head, "No…she's fine….But she's taken."
"…."
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
"She has a boy-friend, Sasuke."
"For how long?"
"About 7 months. She thought you were dead. Everyone told her that you weren't coming back, they told her you were dead. She didn't believe them, but 7 months after not hearing anything, or seeing you…..She moved on. There was nothing left for her. She was about to commit suicide, Sasuke. You were worth dying over for her, and you just left." His voice was breaking, he just started at the ground, in the terrifying memories.
"She didn't care for anyone, Anku came from the Village of the Swamp. Everyone told her to move on, he was interested in her and she gave in, she settled for him. Sasuke, you cant hurt her again. Do you know what it was like seeing her like that? Day after day, she cried, not eating or drinking everything, she was dying. Everybody watched her die slowly, so many people cried, they even had a funeral planned out. If you ever do something to hurt her again…I will kill you."
Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing
But don't worry about regret or guilt cause I never knew your name
I just want to thank you
Thank you
From the bottom of my heart
For all the sleepless nights
And for tearing me apart yeah yeah
Sasuke just looked at his ex-teammate. 'She was going to kill herself over me? She has a new boyfriend, she was basically killing herself. Nothing was as important as my revenge to me then…now looking back ….I was wrong. I never want to hurt her like that again.'
"So what am I suppose to do Naruto? I cant just ignore her, she'll find out sooner or later that I'm back. Then what? What am I suppose to do?" he said angrily.
"Nothing. Just let her go."
"I cant do that."
"You're gonna have to try."
"No. She has to know, I don't expect her to come back to me. She just has to know."
"No, Sasuke. Move on. You cant find someone else. There are plenty of fan girls that would be happy to see you. Just leave Sakura alone."
"I dont want anyother girl. Naruto, she's my friend too."
"Ex-best friend. After you left she swore never to talk to you again. If she ever saw you again."
"Well I'm going to have to change her mind."
"Just leave her alone. Don't talk to her, don't look at her, Sasuke. If you really cared about her you would leave her alone, its better for her."
"What about me? What am I suppose to do?"
"WHAT ABOUT YOU?" Naruto shouted, "Is that all you ever think about you selfish baka?! You hurt one of your best friends deliberately and now you just expect everything to be exactly the was it was before you left?"
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
"….."
"Well Sasuke, its not. I have already forgiven you…"
"I didn't ask for your forgiveness." Sasuke interrupted.
"Like I said, I have already forgiven you. If it would have been me I probably would of done the same thing, but handled it differently. So I cant be mad at you, but please don't hurt Sakura. Anyway….do you need a place to crash?"
"….Ya. I do actually." he said confused
"Fine." he sighed.
Sasuke walked up the flights of stairs to Naruto's room. Morning came in less than 3 hours. He woke up before Naruto did. When Naruto did get up however, Sasuke wasn't on the floor. There was a note where he was sleeping. It read: Going out to see Hokage. Then going to talk to 'some people'
'You better not be going to see Sakura' Naruto thought, how ever that was exactly where he was going.
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long, long, long, long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
