Ten years from the cursed date. If her true love has kissed her, on her birthday she awake.
...
"Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?"
The dark-rimmed mirror came to life after hearing the chant. A face appeared in the once pit-black reflection.
"Why my lady, it is only you, who is the fairest of them all."
An evil smirk came across the wicked Queen's face.

...
Though all good things, don't always last.
Such a shame.
...
Please allow me to conclude for you; your knight in shining armor is now here.
...
Isn't that right Sakura?

Here I am again. Striding towards the still beautiful, sleeping female. Her face still flawless, but her face has matured into that of a young woman. Just like the rest of the body. My love; Sakura Haruno. The angel from my childhood dreams have descended. I'm already certain, that the person I want is her.
I went to a corner of the garden. Slowly tying down my white mustang to the silver pole in the beautiful garden. The glass container lid opened as always. My eyes once again treasured the picture of my love in my memory. My dark onyx eyes, bore themselves into the features of the female below myself. I slowly bent my head down, lips slowly and gently caressed her lips.
I can't honestly imagine life without her by my side, how would I be able to stand the pain of being completely alone. Oh, my love, so tell me how am i suppose to retrieve something that's already been released?
Her lips are so warm. It was always warm. So full of happiness and sunshine, like the place she is in right now. Though...is that how she is mentally? What exactly made you this way? Or more like; WHO exactly made you this way?
"He kissed me again, I can feel my heart beating harder. I want to see; who it is that wishes to wake me up."
A rather cold, yet soft hand slowly rubs her rosey, pale cheeks. While the other hand holds onto her left hand lightly. All while the female smiles again. His touches are healing her. His touches are connecting with her. His touches are slowly...
"I'll soon be awake, and the I'd see you, whoever you are!"
...waking her up.
She belong to me, in my most beautiful dream. Not a dream, soon reality. Wanting to tightly hold hands. Tightly being, him and her holding each other's hand. Not just him holding her hands.
A reponse. Any reponse. The refreshing fragance from your hair, and your milky neckline leaves me completely mesmerized. I trace down from your rosey cheek, to your slender neck. I can smell the inoccence emitted from you. Why must you still be a sleep? How come I have this need to be with you?
Questions never really help. Though, I want you to open your eyes. I want to see you awake.
"That deep, sultry voice surrounds my ears, recurring and never being erased from my head. I always hear you talking. Your voice enchants me."
My heartbeat's increasing. I know it was love at first sight, but why must it have been you? Someone I can't communicate with. Someone who I barely know. It can be called: uncontrollable insanity. I can't afford losing you. You are...
a person...that needs to be protected.
I close my eyes, sighing in the process. I may sound cliche, even though UCHIHAS are dark, cool and NON-CLICHE people; I want us to depend on each other's heart. I already know, I depend on you. But, do you depend on me?
I try to push my doubts away and proceed with my normal routine. Gently cupping her left cheek, I swooped down placing a slow yet chaste kiss onto her pink lips. Once again. She does not wake up. Still, a smile is graced upon her appearance. Twice already, I've kissed her on the same day.
Another kiss. Again, it somehow leaves me breathless.
"Open your eyes please. I want to be the first person you see when you wake up." I whispered quietly, mumbling some words. It's a shame, she didn't hear it. Because if she did, maybe...she wouldn't have made a mistake.
"Hm...I wonder what you look like. Has he met Naruto and Hinata yet? I don't think nothing can change my liberty to love you. Even if I don't know you. One more week, before my birthday. One more week until I wake up. Wait for me prince."

Ten years before...
Date: March 23rd
"Who is she?"
"She's a cursed beauty."
"Why is that?"
"Envy, is such an ugly thing."
"..."
"Didn't expect that?"
"Will she ever wake up?"
"She will...once..."
"..."
"Once her true love kisses her."
"A curse, or a magical spell?"
"..."
"I didn't think you could answer that. A magical spell because, she's asleep and only her true love can wake her up. Once she wakes up, she'll be living a happy life. A curse because, it might never happen."
"Will you try?
"I will. Once fate allows me Naruto."
"A try will never hurt..."
"Only fate will tell."
...
"Will you be coming back?"
"In ten years."
A content sigh escaped from Naruto's lips. His eyes wandered towards the eight year old male infront of him. He took in the image him the boy staring down at the cursed girl. His eyes showing remorse and sorrow. Yet he was admiring her unique beauty.
"She's beautiful, isn't she?"
"Yes she is Gaara. Yes she is."
XxX
Is it possible that three lives entwine because of the same incident? Or is it twisted fate that the two males experienced the same situation? Was the curse a sign? The truth of the matter is, they won't know until it happens.

Here was another short chapter. I hoped you enjoyed it. The real drama is starting in chapter 3. When Gaara comes in. Chapter three will be I hope five to eight pages long. But chapter three will probably be updated in about two weeks. School is a little hectic. But thank you anyways for the wait. I apologize again for any mistakes or incorrect grammar.
