Lies/Promises
NaruHina Week Day 4
(T, Romance)
He's a liar.
He'd come back to his senses about the many promises he made her whenever he'd see her waiting for him in their room. Her face covered by shadow and dimness. Her eyes full of longingness.
This was not what he promised her.
This was not how he imagined things could be.
"I promised to make you happy." He whispered.
She inched near him and let herself be pulled into his embrace as he laid his cheek on top of her head.
"I also promised the same."
Her eyes closed while she listened to the beating of his heart. She heard it, it was calling out her name.
She looked up at him and met his eyes. At that moment, they realized that the fault was not theirs. The fault was in the universe. Both of them couldn't run away from the responsibilities and the many things that kept them apart, but they would never change the way their lives were, if it meant they'd lose each other.
He conquered her lips in a gentle kiss, but the yearning they've been holding was just too powerful to restrain. They kissed like time was running out, like they were both hungry of love. They both knew that there could be no other. This was what they needed, what they wanted and what they dreamed of.
And this was the part where the sun, moon and stars could never go in between. The part they forget about the world and make their promises alive.
