So, I've decided that I will update every Saturday (the one's when I am not at my mom's [every other week]) because I never get to it on Fridays. Anywho, hope you enjoy my sudden turn of events :). Remember to keep following and leaving critiques! They are much appreciated! By the way, I do not own Naruto... Sadly xD Enjoy!
We stepped into the warm water and sunk down in it. The water felt nice as it caressed my aching muscles. I think I slept on my back weird last night. It feels so stiff. "Here, let me begin on your back." Sasuke offered, sounding almost seductive. I smirked and turned so my back was facing him. He first began massaging my shoulders. I threw my head back slightly and groaned. His hands moved in circles and his thumbs pressed pleasurably on my neck. "You're so tense." Sasuke whispered, putting more pressure on my shoulders. "Yeah, I think I slept weird on it last night." I circled my head and sighed when the muscles loosened and cracked. The rest of his massage continued in silence, and it got me thinking. Where was this going? Yeah, I wanted him desperately, but I needed him more in other ways. I didn't want a sex friend, but much rather my own partner in crime. Even so, I knew Sasuke couldn't feel the same. Sure, he showed his passion physically towards me. However, how could someone that truly loved me as much as I did him, leave me so effortlessly.
Just then, the pain of that day crowded my mind. Ironically, it was a gloomy day with speckles of rain dropping down the disappointing sky. Although, I was in my usual cheerful mood. I was merrily strolling down the streets of Konoha, when I suddenly bumped into Kakashi. "Oh, hey sensei." I smiled up at the taller Jounin and shot him a smile. "Hey kid, where are you headed?" He asked, stuffing his book away in his bag. "I was going to Ichiraku's for some morning ramen." I replied, licking my lips hungrily. "Of course you are." Kakashi rolled his eyes and then sighed deeply. "What's wrong?" I questioned, cocking my head to the side. "Oh, you haven't heard? Sakura found Sasuke last night, he said he was leaving to Sound today. We tried to stop him, but he's so lost in a mind of vengeance that our attempts failed miserably." Kakashi's voice lowered along with his single eye. "He what?!" I exclaimed taking a shocked step away from sensei. Before Kakashi could utter another word, I pushed past him and ran to his house. Tears were streaming down my cheeks and then flew away to get mixed into the drops of rain. "Damn it Teme!" I screamed into the dreary air.
Once I had arrived at the house, I busted in. "Teme, what the hell are you doing?!" I screeched, not even bothering to check if the boy was still here. "What's it to you?" A familiar voice of sarcasm sounded in the corner of the room. I turned my head and gritted my teeth when I saw Sasuke stuffing clothes into a duffel bag. "How could you leave m- I mean us?" I croaked, now fighting the tears more than ever. "Hmph, I wasn't interested in making friends in the first place. I only became a shinobe to defeat my brother, so that's what I'm going to do." Sasuke zipped up the bag and started to stand up, however I pushed him back down and kicked away his bag. "So, your best idea is to become a rogue ninja and abandon what little life you have began to have?" Sasuke sat in silence for a moments before saying, "It's my only option." I gaped and resisted the urge to slap sense into this long gone ninja. "What about those who care about you? You'll break Sakura's heart." I choked back saying my heart and replaced it with Sakura's. I didn't give two shits about that girl. I could care less about what she feels anyways. "You think I care about her?" Sasuke laughed evily. "What happened to you?" I breathed, unable to vocalize my voice properly. It was still too shaky. "What are you talking about? This is me. I guess if you were really my friend, you would accept that." Sasuke stood up and brushed past me. "Don't come looking for me, you'll only waste your breath." I winced at his harsh words and stood stiff until he slammed the door behind him. I collapsed onto his wooden floors and wept until I had left an impressive puddle of my own tears on the ground. I punched the ground until my knuckles started to bleed, but I didn't care. The pain of losing him was overwhelming and blinded my train of thought. "I'm worthless!" I yelled, punching harder at the ground. "I'm so stupid!" I kept repeating that to myself. Suddenly, I became tired and ended up sleeping on his floor that night.
Up until now, I had spent most of my days curled up in my bed weeping. Only recently did Shikamaru get me out of the house to do something fun. Even so, I was only masked temporarily. I know Sasuke and I exchanged soft words last night, however I could still hear his piercing words from 3 years ago.
"Naruto? Are you okay?" Sasuke's voice suddenly spoke worriedly. "Um, yeah sure." I mumbled, shrugging his hands of my back. "No seriously what's wr-" "Leave me alone!" I yelled and jumped up from my sitting position. "Naruto wait. Come sit down. Let's talk." He urged pulling on my hand. I shook it off easily and quickly slipped on my clothes. "I just need to go." I closed the bathroom door behind me and left his house. As I made my way farther from his residence, the more my heart began to split in two. I could almost feel it breaking. I clenched my chest and sniffed back intruding tears. Why did the teme have to make his way into my heart? I wish I had kept my distance and switched squads with another child. I could have easily avoided this never ending hole of pain and suffering. I could have wasted my breath on something more important. It's not like I could have gotten through to him. At that time he would have never stayed no matter what I said. I could have confessed to him, but he would have probably still gone. Then, he claims to have feelings for me so long later! "If you love me then why did you leave me!" I screamed angrily. As if the day was repeating itself, rain started to fall from the sky. "Perfect." I scoffed, chucking half heartedly. Let this be closure I guess. Maybe now, I can be the one to leave without feeling guilt.
Ah, the emotional part. How I love it so! So, what happens next? Find out next week! :D
