I don't own Naruto
The tears. I never thought I'd stop crying that day. The day he was gone. It was as if the sunshine in my life was gone. In all are lives. I never knew just how much it meant to me when he was there. How much he kept me and everyone else together.
Konoha just seemed darker. We all felt it, every single person as time passed began to realize just what are sunshine meant for us. He was the person who made the village laugh with his lighthearted pranks.
The guy who stood by and listened to the girls as we cried over whatever bugged us. The guy you came to when you needed a smile and we never realized. We pushed him down so many times yet he never wavered. He gave everything for people to be happy. Even his own happiness. He gave us sunlight.
I remember when we all stood at the gate waiting. The others had already come back and were being attended at the hospital.
I knew though he would succeed. He always kept his word. It was the promise of a lifetime he'd told me, I believed him.
So I smiled when I saw the image of a person carrying someone else headed for the gate. My sunshine had come through. How I wish I'd been right...
I knew something wasn't right the moment it became clear it was Kakashi carrying someone else. Kakashi with his shoulders slouched and his face down. His posture shouted that it was wrong.
He was carrying my sunshine. A beam of light that was limp in his grasp as his head hung down. I realized as I felt my heart shatter with a terrible clarity of what had happened. My sunshine had set.
I wasn't aware when I fell to my knees or when the first scream escaped my lips. I couldn't have told anyone who had picked me up and carried me away as Kakashi passed with my happiness so cold in his arms.
Since that day I can't seem to stay awake to the world. Everything was like a dream or a nightmare as everywhere I turned I'd see his smiling face in one memory or another. It amazed me how much he'd been the heart of the village.
He'd been there for them all. At one point or another. It had been his way to help others.
He was my sunshine.
My only sunshine
And he'd been taken away.
