The sun had gone down about two hours ago and I could not get to sleep for the world. I kept getting the feeling that someone was watching me. Who would be watching a lame-o like me, I don't know. I'd find out if someone was, though.
Since I couldn't get to sleep, I got up and dressed. My clothing had my family symbol, a rose, on the back in embroidery and on the pocket of my jeans was the symbol of our village. The yin-yang symbol was meant for balance, so it seemed kind of out of place in my mixed up world.
When I got outside, I walked down to the park and sat on a bench just staring at the sky. The song "Only Hope" began playing in my head. My mom had taught it to me when I was a kid.
"There's a song that's inside of my soul," I began to sing. "It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again."
A sound came from behind me.
From Sasuke's POV
I had heard her walk out of the house and followed her. When she began to sing, I accidentally stepped on a branch of the bush that I was hiding behind. Not the smartest move in the world.
Original POV
"I'm awake in the infinite cold but you sing to me over and over and over again
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands And pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours I know now you're my only Hope."
I began to cry remembering the way my mom had sang to me when I was little.
"Sing to me the song of the stars of your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again when it feels like my dreams are so far
sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands
And pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope
I give you my destiny I'm giving you all of me
I want your symphony Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands
And pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours I know now you're my only hope," I finished singing the song and wiped my tears away. Somewhere, my mom was watching me and smiling down on me.
"I'm such a crybaby," I said to myself. "If I could just stop crying, everything would be okay, but I can't. Mom where are you?"
An arm wrapped around my shoulders. "It'll be okay little avenger. I'm here for you."
I looked up into Sasuke's obsidian colored eyes. Then I lay my head against his shoulder. Sasuke had come to me in my time of despair.
"Can't we just be friends for now?" He grinned when he asked the question. I smiled and nodded. I had another friend. That was three. I hoped beyond hope that my friends would stay safe.
