disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should've said
Words
As cold, emotionless Sasuke stares down at the pink haired woman before, her wide eyes nearly flowing over with tears, and dear God, it hurts to see her like this, and the fact that he is the cause of it, it's like being skinned and having vodka poured over the raw muscles. He makes sure that nothing passes through his carefully crafted, indifferent mask, but he damn near wants to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness, although he already knows, he's not worthy of it.
The Uchiha stands motionless, a thousand words, phrases flies through his mind in barely over a second, and he has so much he wants to say to her. How he regrets marrying Karin, so fucking much, and that he didn't know whether or not he would make it back, so in the spur of the moment, he had gone and done the most foolish act he had ever done. Because really, seeing her like this, the dead looking eyes that used to shine so, so bright, like she could light a cloudy day just by smiling. But without noticing, he has said something that has Sakura's tears sliding over her cheeks, and a mangled sob tearing out of her throat.
"I would not have done it, married Karin. If I had come back earlier. I would have chosen you instead."
As soon as those foul words slipped out of his venomous lips, she's standing still, and her eyes are so wide it's almost as if someone had slapped her with a crowbar, and he guesses he has, just verbally. And so suddenly, she jerks back to life with a diamond layered gaze and an expression that conveyed anger, hurt, and a hatred that was just starting to bloom into a fatal flower. "Don't…just don't say anything. It's already past, and really, it isn't about what you would have done, but what you have already done." Sasuke stands, straighter and his surprise is barely even a widening of slightly flashing red.
As the four-man team departed on the mission to Sunagakure, the tension is clouded so thickly that the other two members are quiet and moving as quickly as they can so that maybe, they can make it to the desert, just a bit faster. The hurt that radiated off of the medic was like a furnace, so noticeable that the people around her were affected while Sasuke on the other hand, the numb aura that rolls off him is suffocating and could make someone feel claustrophobic.
But with dulling bitterness, he's already discovered that you couldn't take back words that you've never even said.
As I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words
I never said
Soo...another chapter. It was a quick one and I had time sooo...enjoy! Thanks for reviewing and even more are highly appreciated. This one is based off of Words by skylar grey.
