Confessions of an Avenger

4: The memory of you shielding me...

For my own match I had arrived late.

Inspite of that people were ready to debate.

The Uchiha Prodigy or the intriguing boy from sand.

Who will win and prove himself grand?

None of them were there for genuine support.

But I knew, eventually you'll be waiting for me to report.

To bother me with your worries about those painful curse-marks

and to express how much you missed me with your heart-warming remarks.

Even I admit that in the midst of that harsh training course,

I yearned for that annoying presence of yours.

But looks like our meeting will have to be adjourned.

Because of the enemy's invasion concerned.

So I followed three of them into the woods.

And tried stopping them since I could.

Problem began when my opponent turned half into a beast.

"You are my prey!" he declared, preparing for a feast.

For I had no other choice I went for the third shot,

making the curse-seal trigger right on the spot.

Unable to endure the pain, I faltered.

The enemy attacked, knowing my condition could not be altered.

I wondered if it would be the end of my miserable life.

Because that curse-seal did not allow me any strife.

Fortunately, at the last second, you and that idiot stepped in.

But you left me shocked as you were not ready to give in.

You stood up, determined to save me.

Had your feelings grown that deep for me?

"Sakura…you have to save her no matter what…"

I requested that idiot without a second thought.

And all throughout the fight, I couldn't get you out of my brain

because I didn't want to lose a precious person again.

So once more, in the bridal style, I caught you when you fell

as the memory of you shielding me, made my heart swell…

A/N: This one's about the final rounds of chunin exams when Gaara leaves the fight and Sasuke follows him. Remember how Naruto goes to save the day ans Sasuke says he doesn't want to lose another precious person?

I hope you all enjoyed.
