Chapter One
I let it fall, my heart
and as it fell,you rose to claim it.
It was dark and i was over.
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
In retrospect, I should have known that things moved to quickly. Love is blind, and that is why we are so easily robbed. Some are robbed of their innocence, money, time, or sanity. Others are not so lucky. I was not lucky.
My name was Naruto Uzumaki. My story begins in the most ordinary of places, the sidewalk outside of Mings ramen shop. It's where I first met him. His name is Gaara. He had the most blank of expressions on his face. I was taken back by how little he seemed to care that he was almost about to run into me. I now know he wanted me to run into him. I wish I had never went out to eat that day, but regretting it now does me no good.
"Whoa! Sorry didn't know you were coming down the way." I said trying to be polite
"It's alright. I'm not hurt and if you are not either then we are alright." his voice was a deep sandy voice that despite it's coarse nature seemed so soothing.
"You going into Ming's?" I asked beginning to fall for his almost repulsive seductive mannerisms. I put my hand out for him to shake.
"I was only going for a walk. I didn't know I would find a golden lotus on my walk today." his voice was becoming more water like as he took my hand and kissed it. His lips brushed my skin like tanish pink feathers sending tingling sensations down my back.
"I didn't know i would run into a handsome red head either." i said the warmth of my cheeks turning them a light shade of pink. He smiled and i felt my body melt. He was handsome and strong. I craved him. He was the fruit of knowledge from the tree of good and evil.
"Would you like to walk with me or do you have pressing matters to attend to?" he said letting my hand go. I almost didn't know he said anyting because my mind was focused of the loss of connection between our bodies. I was falling rather quickly for a stranger.
"Sure, I have nothing better to do." I said almost happily. We walked through a park conversing about the small parts of life. Small talk. A type of talking rarely would you find someone to have mastered or even perfected. I was falling into his ravine I would guess. He had many skills of persuasion and seduction.
When we reached a large oak tree which the path through the park circled around we sat on the benches and continued our conversation until his true intentions became obvious but i was too blind to see it as anything more than a way of telling me he was interested. " Naruto, I do not know much about you but i would like to see you more. You have something I've been looking for in a person. I'd like to take you out on a date." his voice was still grainy but he was as smooth with words as egyptian cotton sheets are against bare skin. My seduced mind was enthralled with him to think of what he was saying, so i again blindly agreed.
After our third date he drew me into his arms and kissed me. I was so happy. He made me feel so protected, so loved and so important. People in my life have looked down upon me but this new person was holding me up. In my unexperienced mind i was being rescued by a handsome prince and all that was left was my happily ever after. No one quite knows how wrong they are until they find out the hard way, most commonly. Sadly, I was no exception.
