When Spring Ends
Flowers blossomed beautifully in the large area in front of the small house. Clouds hung in the clear blue sky as birds and other animals basked in the sun shining down. Blue eyes watched forlornly at the life that was being expressed in everything. He wished he could be like the flowers, the sun, the trees, and the wind, anything that thrived in the spring. He hated how he was now, always being sad and missing Sasuke.
"It is all your fault," Naruto muttered glaring at the picturesque scene that was in front of his house. "It's all your fault!"
Everything. He hated everything.
He was mad. Mad at Sasuke for all that had happened. The memories of them happy and the memories of his death, made him so angry. Sasuke just selfishly died leaving him behind to have to deal with all the pain. But where was Sasuke? Nowhere. He didn't have to feel the pain. He didn't have to suffer. It was so infuriating thinking about it.
It was all Sasuke's fault that he was like this. Sasuke was to blame. He glared at the photo of Sasuke that sat on the coffee table in the living room. The picture was of a nineteen-year-old Sasuke smiling slightly at the camera despite the rain that was cascading down on him. Droplets of water fell from his face and his hair stuck to his head. Mud was on his clothes, but he was able to smile in the situation because Naruto had been taking the picture and remarked how Sasuke looked like he had when they had been twelve and gotten in a fight in the rain. It had been the same day that they had first kissed…

"Sasuke-teme! You got me in trouble with Iruka-sensei!" Naruto yelled angrily ignoring the rain falling on him.
"Tch, Dobe it's not my fault you yelled out in class," Sasuke replied coldly keeping his umbrella above him blocking the rain. Naruto growled and lunged for the raven-haired boy. The sudden attack caught Sasuke of guard and he let go of the umbrella and moved to defend himself, but the slick ground caused Naruto to slip and crash into Sasuke. They fell to the ground as murky water splashed around them from the impact.
Naruto's head was on Sasuke's chest and he moved to sit up. Sasuke groaned as he managed to lift himself up. He held the side of his head as if in pain and Naruto immediately felt guilty.
"Sorry," Naruto said reaching a hand out quickly and putting over Sasuke's trying to move it away.
"It's fine dobe," Sasuke growled out glaring at the blonde.
"No! It's not! I hurt everyone!" Naruto yelled pulling the hand away to see blood trickling slowly from the back of Sasuke's head. He gasped and let his hand fall limply to the ground. "I'm sorry…"
"I'll be fine, just get off of me," Sasuke said pushing the blonde off him only causing Naruto to fall backwards onto the ground. Sasuke watched as Naruto lay on the ground letting the icy rain pelt down on his skin. The rain falling on him stung his body, so he knew that Naruto's face was most likely burning with pain. "Dobe get up."
"No…there's no point…" He began lifting an arm up to his face to cover his eyes. "I have no friends and I'm an orphan…I have no one…"
"You're a liar," Sasuke said angrily pulling Naruto's arm off his face as he hovered over the blonde. The anger vanished though when he saw the tears falling from the blue eyes. It was hard to tell from far away but up close he could differentiate the tears from the rain. "You lie everyday."
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked weakly.
"You act so happy and laugh all the time," Sasuke said looking down causing his hair to fall in his face. "It's so stupid to hide like that and lie to yourself and everyone else. Just be yourself…"
"Why do you care?" Naruto yelled sitting up quickly pushing Sasuke back but their bodies were pressed against each other's. His eyes held fury as well as pain. Sasuke glared and wrapped his arms around the boy in front of him.
"Because you are my friend!" Sasuke admitted. "You're the only one who doesn't treat me like a god."
"Wha-" Naruto began getting cut off by a pair of chapped lips. It lasted only an instant but the warmth and comforting feeling Naruto got from the kiss relaxed him. "Why?" He had to ask though.
"Actions speak louder than words. With you I'd have to show I cared and not just say it," Sasuke said smirking.
"What are you trying to say?" Naruto said squinting his eyes in suspicion.
"That you're stupid dobe," Sasuke said smirking even wider as he watched the blonde's cheeks puff out in anger.
"Don't call me that Sasuke-teme!" Naruto yelled pushing Sasuke back down into the murky water covering both boys in mud once again.
-
The kiss had been from affection, as a show of friendship. They didn't fall in love until a couple years later. They had been content with friendship. But now Naruto wished he had never been close to Sasuke.
It was all Sasuke's fault. It was Sasuke's fault that he fell in love with him. If Sasuke hadn't been his friend, he would never have had to feel this pain and aching sadness.
He hated Sasuke for this. He hated him and was angry. So angry about being left alone.
"You left me!" Naruto yelled picking up the picture and yelling at it. "I'm all alone now! You died and left me! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" Naruto kept chanting those three words over and over again until the fatigue of not sleeping and not eating caught up to him an hour later as he choked with a raspy voice on 'hate' and stopped talking, rubbing at his aching throat. He then set the picture back on the table and walked slowly back to the window, anger still radiating from him as he stared at the setting sun glowing orange in the scene before him. It was so beautiful, but he could only hate it for being just that.
He hoped he wouldn't be mad forever at Sasuke though.
I love you Sasuke…don't make me hate you. Let me forgive you when spring fades away.
