Dreams
Neji isn't a dreamer. He doesn't believe in dreams. No, they were a waste of time to him. Dreaming will not change your fate. Nothing can. So day after day, Neji trained, ate, slept, and trained some more. He was alive, but he wasn't truly living.
Tenten loves to dream. She likes to fly, to soar over the white clouds. Dreaming hides the harsh reality of a shinobi's life. Tenten dreamt Neji could know how she felt, and they could be happy.
Tenten believes that if only they lived in another life, Neji would dream and she would dream and they would dream together, forever.
Once, Tenten asked Neji why he hated to dream. Neji had looked at her, but didn't say anything. Tenten never asked again.
Months passed, and Tenten soon forgot about their conversation, until one day, late at night, a note was handed to her.
Tenten:
You once asked me why I never had a dream. It is because dreams are too easily broken.
Neji
Beneath his name, Tenten could see a faint mark. She peered closely and saw: I Love you. She furrowed her brows quizzically, not understanding.
Later that day, Tenten found out that Neji died. And she cried. Months ago, she should have brought her dreams into reality. Now it was too late. There was no tomorrow for them.
In another life… Tenten and Neji would be happy together.
In another life… Dreams would become reality.
In another life… Caged birds would fly free.
In another life... They would dance until the moon showed her face and the stars wept to see them.
Too bad they don't live in another life, right?
This drabble is much longer than my other ones. It's kind of random. Oh well. And I still haven't left for my vacation, but I will shortly so updates will come slower because I have to pack. (Review please!)
