It seems that all of us, every human, animal, and plant alive, learn to late what is most important. While I lie here tonight, with the man I would give my life for. The idiot who's made me cry, and laugh; I've almost given everything I had for him. Yet I don't regret it. I would do it again and again. As long as I could have him next to me. I realized what is most important, not just for me, or even for the human race, but for everything. What I realized was, all we seek for as we live our lives, is to touch and be touched. To love and be loved. To want him and know he wants you. In some form we seek approval from those we wish to love.

Like everything else, I realized this to late. I haven't told him. Told him how I feel, or what I wish our lives can be. Could be…wish to be. I can't tell him now. He has to leave. I'm scared that if I told him, he would laugh at me and say it was a game of lust.

It would kill me to hear that. Letting him go will be the best. No matter how much pain it will cause. It's to late to change how he feels. Regardless, I still love him. I LOVE HIM, I LOVE HIM, I LOVE HIM! I just wish I could tell him.

I felt something wet on my face. I was crying. A silent laugh escaped my lips. Sasuke turned around; I quickly hid my face under the blanket.

"Naruto." I said nothing. I felt him climb on top of me. "Naruto." He whispered. His voice was right by my ear. "Did I hurt you?"

"Like you care!" I spat. I love Sasuke (god how I love him) but he can't all of a sudden give a crap. My words may have been strong, but my face was crumbling. The goddamn tears wouldn't stop.

'Did I hurt you?' What the hell Sasuke. Like leaving the village didn't hurt me. You did everything you had set out to do. Kill your brother. Yet you didn't come back. It only nearly killed me to stand up for you everywhere I went. Yes, Sasuke you hurt me. You've hurt me more then anyone, or anything. I'm broken because of you.

Sasuke swiped the blanket from my face. He placed both his hands on my face, so I couldn't look away.

"I'm sorry." his eyes looked onto mine, "I am so sorry for hurting you."

For the first time that night Sasuke kissed my lips. He kissed them with the same passion he had shown earlier.

"Naruto…I lo-"

I opened my eyes. No one was on top of me, no one was beside me.

Was it a dream? I went to rub my eyes with my hand, and found a note.
