The hitai-ate rested on his knees so he could look down at it, but it made his stomach clench painfully so he set it on the floor beside him.
Just as quickly as that, an emptiness settled in his chest; deep and unforgiving, so he picked it up and clutched it tightly in his hands. He ran his fingers across the surface, wincing as he caught a sharp edge of the deep scar that ran down its centre. The scar he had put there.
He couldn't bear to hold it anymore so he laid it gently at his feet and looked away.
He wouldn't hold it in his hands for long because it reminded him of the precious face- precious forehead the band should have been tied around.
He couldn't stand to be away from it for long because it was all he had left of his most important person. And he needed to hold onto that so desperately
He couldn't even stand to be in his own skin because it never stopped itching and crawling, as though it was trying to heal a vicious wound deep in its surface.
His mind swirled and a pool of despair bubbled up and filled him completely until he was drowning in loneliness.
He did the only he knew how to do anymore.
Naruto laid his head in his arms and cried.
