Prince Charming [noun]
: a suitor who fulfills the dreams of his beloved
….
….
or
: a man of often specious charm toward women.
Haruno Sakura had long ago chosen the first definition.
There was no one who could go up to her and demand that he wasn't her Prince Charming. She made him her Prince Charming.
Yes.
Capital letters.
In every life that there is, on every path that is taken is one thing that set it all off.
An event.
An item.
An idea.
A person.
She modeled herself after a girl for this man: bottled up her inner self.
Because of this she would thrive later on.
She would strive to be the best.
She would bloom.
So as Haruno Sakura quietly made her rounds around the clinic she hummed happily.
It was because of him that she was here helping.
It was because of him that she decided to be a better person.
It was because of him that her heart would ache at night.
Haruno Sakura was not a moaner though, not anymore. She worked hard.
She told herself that it was for her benefit.
But secretly waited to throw it into his face.
"I'm the Hokage's apprentice. I'm the Hokage's personal assistant. I am a chunin. I am a best friend. I am not a lover."
"I have completed S-Class missions. I have saved over seventy lives in the past two years. I have set two best friends up. I have assisted in bring eight new lives into this world. I have not brought any myself."
"What have you done while you were gone?"
Rehearsed lines.
She would be gentle, quiet and kind at first. She would be the perfect nurse.
She would then let it out. She knew words are not meant to be bottled up.
She would tell him she cared for him.
And then proceed to chastise him.
Mother him.
And then one day he may rebel like a teenager and grow just a little more.
Because Haruno Sakura had matured more than he.
So once again Haruno Sakura looked at her clipboard.
She couldn't say why he was her Prince Charming. Minus the fact he changed her.
She was content though. It would come in time.
So Haruno Sakura gathered up her nerves. Rehearsed her speech and stepped in.
There was her Prince Charming.
Sleeping.
Her speech could wait. Her tender care could wait.
For her goal she would need the utmost patience:
To become his Princess Charming.
Though she could deal with being his
princess charming
for a while.
