This is an AU fic/ drabble, no pairing, but mainly just what would happen to Naruto and Sakura if Sasuke committed suicide, leaving them alone. Obviously Sakura doesn't take it too well. Enjoy the angst, and rate for my help!

Coma White

There's something cold and blank behind her smile

Ever since that day, he could feel the overpowering pain in her eyes, the eyes which had been so bright, so kind, and so full of love. It was easy to tell that the suicide had affected her in a way that it did no one else; Sasuke had been her love, the first one, the only one she'd felt as though something different could have happened.

She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile

There had been life in those eyes, no matter how hard Sakura had tried to make him care for her, make the raven-haired boy from her childhood act as though there was love under those years of pain and hate and pride. Those years of revenge.

You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today

Today to run away

Brushing the blonde jelled hair out of his eyes, watching from behind her as she stood on the edge of the overpass, mascara running. Ino would have a fit if she knew what Sakura did during those cold Saturday nights when she was turned down to go to the movies with her as a friend.

A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb

Naruto saw at school the tiny spots on Saukra's arm during Science, when they sat next to one another, the dead look in her eyes as she was excused during class to go to the bathroom, struggling with the box, taking one too many, drinking from the tap.

A pill to make you anybody else

That dead look Naruto knew all too well, having seen others with the same appearance- skinny, always chewing gum, the refusal to eat much of anything or too much, dark marks on their arms, and the dead look on their face combined with dark circles.

But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself

Shaking his head to snap out of it, he watched her twist and turn while dancing on the road, eyes closed. No one went on this abandoned overpass- it was too dangerous nowadays to put that many cars on it.

Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall

She was shaking by now, the pink dress loose on her thin frame, so cold out that his breath was visible. Walking slowly towards her, afraid that she'd fall or jump.

Just bleeding like a Polaroid that
Lost all her dolls

"What do you want?" she demanded, refusing the jacket he offered, arms hugging her torso, shoulder blades visible.

You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today

"I just want to help, Sakura. You've been so depressed after the incident, not talking to anyone, so I thought maybe that..." He looked down, ashamed for even coming to her.

Today to run away

"I don't need your stinking help, Naruto. I'm doing fine, just fine." She shivered again, frowning.

A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb

Walking towards her again, frowning slightly, he tried again. "Sakura, it affected me as much as it did you. Believe me. He was the closest thing I had to a best friend, and he threw his life away. But I think that we can pull ourselves together, even to just help ease away the pain."

A pill to make you anybody else

She nodded slowly, pressing her face into his chest, a quiet sob stifled by the thick material of his shirt, his arms slowly wrapping around her body, rubbing her back slowly, rocking her.
