Title: The Note
Note: Ano...This is from my fic, 'Don't Shed a Tear'. Lee had a note, and this is what it said.
--------------------------
Dear Gaara-kun,
You were right. I am a worthless exscuse for a man. A piece of shit. I have come to realize this.
Truth is, you were my only reason for living. As long as you were still alive, I was happy. As long as I knew you still loved me, I was happy. As long as I knew you would one day accept my apologies that I sent, never getting letters back, I was happy.
To explain. When you saw Sakura and I, we were not dating. She had fallen, and I had given her my hand to help her up. When you came to my apartment that day...Naruto and I had had a sleepover. I was still depressed from our breakup, he decided to stay with me, ensurring that I would not do something drastic. After you discovered that, no one talked to me the rest of the day. I sat on our couch the whole rest of the day. Never got up once. I came to the conclusion that you were living without me. And you were my lifeline. But that fateful day, my lifeline was severed. I had no other choice.
By the time you read this, I will be long dead.
But I only want you to know...
I always loved you. No matter what.
Gomne, and sayounara.
--Rock Lee.
-------------------------------
Gaara sat in his chair, too stunned to speak. Too stunned to do anything but breathe, and let the sting come once again to his eyes.
He had read the note over and over. Each time, it read the same.
'I always loved you.'
-----------------------------------------
Gaara was found dead the next day as well. No note, no weapon, just a dead Gaara in his office.
Gaara had not died from cutting. Not from hanging himself. And not from choking himself to death. He died from a broken heart, one that neither medicine nor time could heal. Once again, someone he loved had lied to him.
