Chapter 1 – Think Of Me As I Do To You
"Oh My God! Sasuke's coming home!" squealed Ino as I rolled my eyes at her outburst. And I thought I was the loud one in the group! Yup, that's right; I'm Naruto Uzamaki, a full pledge ninja. And I'm dying to be Hokage of Konoha Leaf Village. I have blond hair, blue eyes and I'm very loud. Speaking of loud…
"Shut Up! We know he's coming back! You've been saying it since this morning!" I yelled back, Hinata—my girlfriend, trying to calm me down.
Let me introduce you to my friends and provide you some information about them. Let's start with the Hyuugas'. My girlfriend, Hinata and her over-protective cousin, Neji. They both don't have pupils but there's a bit of violet in their eyes. They're both quiet, but my girl is mostly shy. Neji likes sparring, so if you want to take out your anger out on someone, he's your man! Hinata is indeed cute, but if you try insulting me, Hinata will use her special, yes 'special' jutsu to teach you a lesson. I'm impressed! Now for TenTen (no last name), likes to spar also, so we all know she likes Neji. Isn't it obvious? Next is Shikamaru Nara and Ino Yamanaka (IDK why I even bother with her). Ino, like me, is loud! But… I'm twice as loud as her, hee hee, must be in my genes. Shikamaru Nara, lazy ass, but secretly a genius. And Sakura Haruno can't forget my teammate, my medic friend on whom I used to have a crush until I met Hinata. But when--- someone she cared for so lovingly fled, she's been in a coma ever since. I'll never forgive him unless Sakura forgives him first, if… she wakes up.
"Hello? Earth to Naruto!" a hand waved in front of my face, which snapped me out of my host position aka daze.
"What now?" I sneered at Ino, who popped me on the head. I glared at her.
"Calm down, we thought of going to the ramen shop! Happy now?" Ino hmp-ed away towards Shikamaru. I turned my head away, down the road stood my favorite restaurant, but hearing Sasuke's--- (Okay fine, brief info: I used to call him teme. His brother, Itachi, was accused for murderous crimes and was executed. Sasuke was my best friend (like a brother to me)/teammate until he left the village. I chased after him but then we went into battle against each other and it seems that he won. He told me that he never wanted to see me again. When I heard this, I was torn, my heart and feelings scraped the insides of me and the next thing I did--- I let him…go. I even promised Sakura I would bring him back, but that would mean I broke my word).
I slumped my shoulders and hung my head, "No thanks. I-I have to go see…Gai sensai!" My friends looked at me like I had two heads; Hina-chan noticed my reaction.
"Naru-kun, I---do you w-want t-to be a-alone?" she asked, "I-if so, w-we'll be a-alright." Her hand in mine as she gave me a squeeze, and I thought I felt bad, but right now, I felt terrible. I gave them a weak smile and turned to leave. Behind me, my friends wondered out loud.
"Unbelievable!" Ino exclaimed, "Thought I never see the day!" Shikamaru lending a hand and covered Ino's mouth as her voice began to muffle. TenTen crossed over to Hinata, "What's wrong with him?""He's j-just not h-hungry. C-come on." Hinata led the group away and I was out of ear shot.
I bit my lip and headed over to see Sakura. In the hospital, I walked into the room where Sakura was laid. I stood at her side, her natural pink hair laid on the sides of her face, and her fingers, slandered restlessly upon the white linen covers of her bed. The curtains pulled apart, the sun shining in, reflecting off her face. Her pale face looked peaceful, likes she's going to a better place. I swallowed and slumped in a chair beside her bed.
"Sakura…" I whispered, "I have special news for you… you'll like it, but you'll won't like it when I tell you. Okay, "I took a breath and let it out, "S-Sasuke is coming home, but I know him being here is good news. So here is the breaking news—I… I'm taking his absence." I slipped her hand in mine and kissed her hand, saying my farewells and left.
Outside, as I was heading to my apartment, there in the distance, were screaming and excited, 'I-Miss-You' commotions. I rolled my eyes then I turned and continued to my duty. I went and packed, ignoring the parade of Sasuke's return. After I was finished, I left a note for Hinata on her bed in her house; slowly I turned around memorizing the faces I love until I start my journey. Finally, I stepped out her window and left. Each step I took was what I was leaving behind; I'm leaving my friends; I'm leaving my girlfriend; I'm leaving Sakura; I'm leaving I'm leaving my home; I'm leaving Konoha just because Sasuke's coming home. His words still hurt me and I feel like going back and doing suicide right in front of him, just imagining his reaction made me smirk. My intentions are to make him feel bad; which is good. To make him feel as guilty or even in pain as I lay there dead beside his feet; which is cruel. To make him gasp out; yell my name out then slowly let his tears flow down his face, careless to mention, just to feel as I did when he said he never wanted to see me again. But I doubt he'll do neither, he's an ice cube, he'll never feel as I felt about him when I broke Sakura's word and let Sasuke go; his words still stabbed me. I was his friend, his best friend. I was his rival. I was his teammate. I was his competitor. I was happy. I was alive. There's a lot of 'was'' and 'is' to come; if only he would think of me as I did to him. Brother.
