BORUTO

0103| I saw her today

It started as a regular day. My friends invited me to a party and I was not in place to deny any alcohol so I promptly accepted.

When I spotted her smile on the other side of the room it was no longer a regular day.

Memories were clear in my head and I was completely aware that I was the one that had failed. Consciously, I'd rather let her live happy without me than coming back and end up hurting us both again, however, in a weak moment, my steps guided me towards the girl of my daydreams and quickly I was by her side greeting her as if she was only a girl at a party.

I remembered her like there were mere seconds since we had our last conversation. I remembered her clearly, as I had never left, from the way she enunciated words to the way she tied her hair up. It's not that I can't forget her—maybe I can, who knows—I just never wanted to. Perhaps that's why seeing her again made me believe that, for love or hate, she would keep me in her mind as well.

Sarada was my first love. We met even before any of us learned how to say any words. We were small babies side by side, holding hands in pictures and smiling at each other, playing together and fighting for silly reasons. We grew up to be an unstoppable duo.

We grew up to fall in love with each other.

Or at least I'd like to think so because that was the impression on the night we kissed. I chose to believe that she was mine after we shared dreams under the moonlight, when she took off her clothes for me and said my name in between low moans. Her silk skin rubbed against mine like we were meant to be and I knew that after that I would never be the same. I was her first; she should've been my last.

She is the kindest person in the world, she is the one I will forever want to share my life with.

For her, I'm somebody that she used to know.


A/N: Not gonna lie, these 371 words hurt me. A lot. Anyhow, I hope yall enjoy my new work, it's intentionally quick and small but I'd say full of emotions but :).
