Eh... I know songfics are frowned upon here, but I've been wanting to do one for a while. Far Away is basically an amazing song, and the Sausaku pairing... well, I don't like it all that much (even though it's cute as a freakin' kitten). But personally I would rather have Sakura be with Sasuke, only so that Naruto could be with Hinata. -hee-
Enjoy my songfic! I've never made one before, so be kind! Flamers, that means you! Just kidding! I don't have flamers.
-looks around-
Do I?
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait?
Sasuke had been such a fool. He'd made so many mistakes in his life, too many to count. It was too late to change them. But his biggest mistake of all was leaving the girl he loved behind. And there was nothing he could do to change that now either.
Her name was Haruno Sakura, and she simply adored him. He had no eye for her affection at the time, and coldly left her behind as he left to fulfill his destiny, despite her plea for him to stay.
Just one chance,
just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
She'd wanted him to stay. More than anything, she didn't want him to go. He was her Sasuke-kun. They'd been through so much, but he didn't seem to care.
Cause you know, you know, you know...
She loved him with all of her heart.
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
Sasuke had known that all along. But there was no room in his heart to love. He had felt something when he had left, watching her sob and beg the way she did for him to stay, but nothing could be done. He had to leave. And he's been gone for so long, he was scared. Scared to go back and face her, after being away for so long.
I keep dreamin' you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathin'
if I don't see you anymore
Sasuke didn't know what he would do if he never saw her again.
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
all of hell to hold your hand
She could remember it so well. It was a clear night. She had found him leaving the village, and, in shock, she asked him to stay.
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
"I love you more than anything!" She'd shouted, and he'd said "thank you".
Cause you know, you know, you know...
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
And here she was now, still waiting for him to return. She thought about it everyday, and she didn't think she could last much longer without seeing his face again.
I keep dreamin' you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathin'
if I don't see you anymore
Sasuke was determined to make it back to her. He'd given up everything he had once wanted, once dreamed of. All he wanted now was Sakura.
So far away, so far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away, so far away
Been far away for far too long
He could barely feel his legs as he ran through the forest, knowing he was nearing his village... feeling that she was waiting for him.
But you know, you know, you know...
Sakura felt the breeze ruffle her pink hair as she stood under the moonlight, in the very same spot where Sasuke had left her. She wanted so badly to see him, to hold him in her arms.
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed
I need to hear you say...
"Sakura!"
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For bein' away for far too long
She turned her head as she heard a familiar shout. Her heart leaped as she saw Sasuke standing down the road, looking different but still so much the same boy she had always loved. Her mind racing, in disbelief, she ran his way as he opened his arms to her.
So keep breathin'
Cause I'm not leavin' you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
She held on to him as tightly as she could, taking in his warmth. It... was really him. It was really Sasuke.
"Sasuke...?" she asked, feeling his arms wrapped around her body. "Is it... really you?"
"Yeah..." he said, a smile forming on his lips. "It's me... Sakura."
So keep breathin'
Cause I'm not leavin' you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
"Sasuke, I..." Sakura said, as tears slipped down her face. "I... I kept dreaming that you'd come back to me... I never lost hope... and now you're here..."
"Sakura... do you still love me?"
"Of... of course, Sasuke! I always have!"
"Sakura... I came back because of you. To see you again. I never meant to leave you."
Keep breathin'...
As he stared into her eyes, they kissed, long and slow. Sakura couldn't have imagined a sweeter moment.
She was finally with her Sasuke-kun once more.
Hold on to me and never let me go...
OWARI
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
How was that? Overly fluffy?
Good. I've done my job, then.
Review, while I beat potential flamers away with a knobbly stick.
