PHOTOGRAPH

a kinda song ficlet to the song "was it a dream" by 30 seconds to mars.

They sat at the park, minding their own business, laughing and playing like all the other kids, even if they were slightly older.

Sasuke took out a camera. "This just feels like a moment we should remember." he leaned in kissing naruto gently while snapping a picture. "There. Now we can always remember. This felt like a special day, eh?"

"I never knew the great uchiha sasuke was so sentimental!" naruto laughed, earning himself a smack in the head.

"There, you went and ruined my good mood." said sasuke, though he was smirking.

"Yea right. Let's go home.

/memories burn, etching them selves into one's mind/

Sasuke stood over naruto, the rain pounding against his sore back. His hair was sopping went, the water dripping into naruto's face. He bent down, his lips just ghosting over naruto's forehead. He slipped his head protector into naruto's grasp.

"Good bye dobe." he whispered. Though it faded quickly in the face of the angry rain.

/like a photograph, taken in someone's mind. Stuck there./

Naruto sat in the hospital bed, clutching sasuke's head band for dear life. It was the only thing left of him anymore.

Well... not the only thing. Iruka-sensei had stopped by earlier, bringing along thing from his apartment that he might need. As he had been going through naruto's drawers he had found a picture, worn a bit around the edges by hands that had held it too many times.

A picture, Of two twelve year old boys one kissing the other. It was sweet. If iruka could say anything about it at all.

He had brought it along, not really intending to give it to naruto, knowing that it would only make him feel worse. He had given sasuke that part of him hoping he would stay.

Iruka was nearly driven crazy that sasuke would dare abuse that. He had brought the picture anyway, but somehow it managed to slip in with everything else.

When naruto saw it, he burst into tears. "Is it just like this photograph? We take it and forget about it, put it in a box with other memories and never talk about it again? Not until we find the box and the picture again?"

"No naruto. You'll cherish it. You'll never forget." Iruka answered, trying his hardest to comfort his ex-student.

"Will he forget."

"I don't know."

"Was it not real? Maybe it was a dream. A very detailed dream."

/ was it a dream? Was it a dream? Is this the only evidence that proves it? A photograph of you and eye. A photograph of you and I./

OWARI!
