First Kiss—Chapter 20
"...Do NOT look for Sasuke. If you do you'll be considered a missing- nin yourself and will probably be killed from a hunter-nin."—Kakashi, First Kiss, Book Three, Chapter 19
Naruto sat in his desk, clicking his pen onto a piece of paper, watching it go through, time after time, going in deeper into the papers below, as the ink started to create a deep, dark, blue pool. He started to think about Sasuke, where he was and what he was doing, why he had left. All those questions circling through his head.
"Why," he said aloud.
Sasuke, sitting in a desk of his own, sat doing exactly the same thing that Naruto was doing. He was thinking, it had been almost two years since he'd seen the people of the Leaf, of Konoha. Since then, he had relocated to the country of the Sand, traveling for a whole year, without finding the Einizigartig. His whole life had been wasted, in his opinion, and had no choice but to settle down. If he returned to a major village or the Leaf, he'd be killed.
For now he was in a small village, a village too small even to have ninja. He was the village leader, as the village had only three hundred people in its borders, and they'd never seen a ninja of his stature.
Since then he had mobilized the small village, creating a police force, a ninja academy, and so far had started what he was hoping to lead to Konoha. A whole village followed him, three hundred followers. He stood up, sighing, looking out his window. He was inside his own palace, his home, where he lived like a king. Sasuke walked through the house, all the way down the stairs, through seven doors, down some more stairs, to the door.
He threw them open, walking to the outside, green meadows greeted him, and the small village of Sachi stood in the distance.
He walked to the Academy, where he met with a ninja who was a teacher at the school. "Mr. Tao," said Sasuke to the man in front of him. The man was a normal villager, only with a chunnin vest on. "I need you to take this letter to the Leaf, you know where that is?" the man shook his head yes. "Once you get there go to Konoha, and find this address."
"Yes, sir, but that is a long trip are you sure you want me to make it?"
"How long will it take Mr. Tao?"
". . .probably half a month. I'll see you then Mr. Taguchi."
Time passed slowly, Sakura came out of the hospital, charged with an eating disorder, Naruto was given his own team and gave up hopes on finding Sasuke. That was in till Mr. Tao got to the Leaf.
Three Weeks Later
Naruto opened the door to see a panting man in front of him. "Who are you?" he sighed and wiped his eyes.
"Who is it?" said Aya behind him as she opened a cabinet door.
"I dunno some jackhole."
"This is from Mr. Taguchi, he wanted me to deliver it to you," he said through a series of pants. He gave Naruto an envelope. Aya walked up, behind Naruto, looking at the letter.
"You gonna open it?" she said.
"Yeah!" Naruto snapped at her. He quickly slid his finger through the top of the letter, slicing the folding part of the letter. He then took the letter out of it and started to read. As he scrolled through the page he started to get more serious and serious about what he was reading, thinking while reading instead of taking the letter as a burden. "Sasuke. . ."
". . .who's Sasuke. . .?" said Mr. Tao, and for the first time Naruto noticed his uniform.
"I get it. . ." said Naruto. "Mr., please come in." Naruto walked to his coffee table, reaching to a cabinet and getting paper and a pen. He started to write. He stopped halfway through his letter, dropping his pen and opening his mouth, finally reaching the point of Sasuke's letter. He stood up, getting his coat, running outside. "Mr. Tao! Show me where you live!"
Mr. Tao ran outside, following Naruto. Aya had no choice but to follow them. Naruto ran to the town gates, but as he reached there he passed by the Ramen Bar, Hinata sat on one of the stools, circling around, waiting for Naruto to come. She spotted them and ran to Naruto. "Naruto!" she shouted. Naruto stopped, looking around.
"Hinata? What?"
"We need to talk."
"Now!?"
"Yes!"
The line behind him gave him a weird look, and he reluctantly walked to the Ramen Bar with Hinata. They sat down and he sighed. "What is it. . .?"
"Why haven't you been talking to me lately, for the last month I haven't talked to you. I haven't seen you. . .and it hurts." Naruto gave her a surprised look.
"When did you become so open. . ." he put his hands on her shoulders. Aya watched, studying the two. She had hardly been out since she started to live with Naruto. A houseguest that never left. This was one of her first times out since then.
"Since you. . .stopped talking to me. . .I felt that if I were more open then maybe. . .you'd notice me more. We are dating aren't we. . .?" she started to cry.
"Listen. . .I want you to come with me. . ."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Sasuke."
"But—"
"But, I wont be gone if you don't come with me."
". . .okay. . ."
Naruto,
I wanted to make this letter short, mostly because I want it to reach you as soon as possible. There is much I want to tell you, though if this letter is ever picked up by a Leaf then I'll surely be killed if I told you what I wanted to tell you. Though there is some I can tell you that will not get me killed. I did leave yes, and I am at the following address: 305 Taguchi St.
Please go there as soon as you can.
Sasuke
AN: Wooh. We see more NaruHina soon. Sorry for delay, felt like you all weren't reading anymore.
