Chapter 3:
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKSlowly, Temari nodded. Suddenly a wave of doubt consumed her. Perhaps they weren't talking about the same thing at all. It was possible, but somehow, unlikely. She stared at Naruto, waiting for some sort of confirmation.
Naruto allowed this to soak in. A look of shock came upon his face, and he couldn't get it to go away. He couldn't believe that someone; especially someone like her was capable of loving him. It wasn't possible. In no way was this possible. He backed away from her, "You're lying, aren't you?"
Temari was taken aback by his sudden change of attitude, "No…?" She wasn't quite sure what he was asking her. "What are you—"
"You lied when you told me you loved me, didn't you?" He snapped at her. His expression wasn't vicious, actually it was more of the opposite. He looked like a child, hurt and alone.
Temari wanted to embrace him, to tell him she wasn't lying. But she didn't do it, she stood there, her eyes full of hurt. Why he had he doubted her? It didn't make any sense. "What are you talking about?" She asked, her bangs shadowing her eyes, "Why would I lie? I don't have a reason to lie to you!"
Naruto's expression didn't fade. He felt lost; he wasn't sure who to turn to. He wasn't sure whether to believe her. If he did, he could possibly be hurt in the end. But wasn't there a price to pay for everything—every desire? If he believed her, there would be a heavy price to pay. If he didn't believe her, he'd be haunted by why he did it for a long time to come.
"…Why are you doing this?" She looked up at the sky. It was a bright blue, as if mocking all the people below. No matter how much blood and how many tears are shed, the sky was almost always blue, unless it was raining.
Naruto realized how much she had hurt her, "Temari I—"
"Naruto, do you really think I lied?" She stared at Naruto; "Do you think that's the type of person I am?" 'Just answer the question, Naruto. I want to know what you truly think of me…'
"I never said that." He said quietly, almost too quiet for her to hear, "I didn't mean it that way."
"Then what way did you mean it?" Temari was a bit frustrated with the boy. If he didn't mean that, then what did he mean?
"I don't know… I just know I didn't mean it like that." Naruto was a bit flustered in this situation. He didn't have much experience with girls; he wasn't sure what to say that wouldn't drive her away.
"…Naruto…" She said carefully, as if she couldn't think of what to say. This situation was awkward. She didn't know what to do in awkward situations.
She didn't have much time to think about it anymore. She felt herself being pulled against the younger boy's chest, his breath near her ear.
The two felt something wet, something cold. Rain poured down on top of them, so hard, they were soaked in seconds.
But neither of them moved. They had the body warmth of each other and the weight in their hearts lifted, and their love took flight, their lips locked in a passionate kiss that lasted what they would swear was a lifetime.
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
