Under the Rain

"Why'd you tell me you hated me when you knew your heart said otherwise?!"
Teardrops spilled from her eyes, blending in flawlessly with the rain that relentlessly continued to pour. I remained unfazed, ignoring the fact that my heart wrenched oh so painfully. Indeed, she had waited for me to return for a long time. A decade of waiting is a long time, isn't it?
I thought so.
"What are you doing?! Don't leave me again! I'll die if you do!" she cried, sobbing.
'Such a worthless girl,' I thought. I looked at her with a mirthless smirk plastered unto my lips.
"Tell me!" the girl—no, woman—I left behind demanded so harshly that she sounded almost pleading—desperate even.
My gaze went blank. I raised a brow and looked at her as if the answer was exceedingly obvious.
"Are you that stupid?" I asked as I took a sharp inhale, daring myself to look at her once more. "You deserve someone better than me. Someone that will never make you cry... Someone that isn't me. Someone..."
My body grew numb.
"… Someone… Who can give you what I lack...…"
I didn't know when the tears ran down my face. Tears of frustration... Tears of anger... Tears of all emotions I kept from the world---from her...
I didn't notice when the rain stopped, either.
Yeah... Teh angst. Y_Y Anyway, I decided to post this. It's a SasuSaku, I think OoC. Might be the last of my fics for this fandom. I got tired of Naruto recently. :(
It's an angst drabble--can also be found in my deviantART. :D
