Author's Note: Don't ask why I wrote this…I'm in a very happy mood! I have never been happier before…So…happy! I don't know how I write stuff like these when I'm happy. It's so unusual. Read this and find out…I am a weird person…writing these kinds of things when I'm happy…This is a theme song from Inuyasha…translated in English… this is a very weird fic, trust me.
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of this fic. Nil. Zilch.
Thinking of you made me cry, so my eyes
They were filled with tears and all I got
Is my will to be with you again.
-Dream, My Will
Haruno Sakura was sitting on the edge of her bed. She wasn't moving, barely blinking. She breathed out a sigh.
It's been two days since Sasuke left konoha. She would never be able to forget that night, never.
She closed her eyes, and took a deep breath, only to let it out again.
She stared at the floor, and then the picture on her desk caught her attention.
Kakashi-sensei over her head, his masked face, still a mystery to her; Naruto on her left; and Sasuke, not smiling, on her right. They looked like a normal team. Strong, stronger and strongest; weak, weaker and weakest; good, better, and best. Now, all that was left was the good and the best. The one in the middle, the one that held it all together, was gone. He was never stronger than Naruto-san, she just realized that now…Naruto would never cave in to his bad side just to get power. Why would Sasuke leave to be stronger if he was already the strongest? Well…he wasn't.
She stared, but she wasn't looking. Her finger traveled to her cheek. It was still wet with tears. Her eyes were still weary because she had not been able to have a peaceful sleep since two days ago. Her lips were dry given that she hasn't opened her mouth too speak for two days. Her cheekbones began to take shape because she hadn't eaten anything since that night. She starved herself, hoping that this whole thing won't bring her to cause her own death. Although death didn't seem cruel at the moment. This was cruel; this, what she's doing now, is torture.
She closed her eyes again, longing for tears to pour out once more. She just wanted to cry it all out, hoping to cry out his memory along with her tears. She failed miserably at the effort to cry again. She had so many tears that it seems like she had drained herself of them.
What could she do to forget him?
She ran her hand through her hair, a mannerism that helped her think. Her grip loosened as she passed her chin. It was still short since she had cut it in the chuunin exam. She had cut it trying to protect Sasuke. Since Naruto was there, she could say she was protecting her teammates, but truly, she was just protecting Sasuke. Just Sasuke.
Her heart skipped a beat. She had remembered when Sasuke's curse seal spread through his body. She was scared…not of him, but for him. She was afraid that he would never go back to being the himself again. She was scared.
Her lip quivered and she had cried again. Crying felt good. Crying felt great, but it didn't really help. She cried her heart out, but meant nothing at all.
In the short span that she was with her teammates, she had forced herself not to cry in times that she wanted to. But now…now that crying was the only thing she COULD do…she realized…that it just brings you back to where you started. Back to why you cried in the first place.
She stopped, then wiped her tears away.
What could she do to forget him? How can a person who lost someone she loves forget him?
The answer: you can't.
