'Thinking'
Normal
Knock, knock.
The door opened by itself, I had decided to visit Sasuke since he's been acting differently. I peeked my head in and noticed no one was home. I brought him some food, in case he was hungry."Sasuke…?" I whispered, only to hear the echo of my own voice.
I started going upstairs admiring one of the pictures on the wall. It was us when we were about 4 years old. I smiled, to remember what we used to be like. Next to it was a picture when we were a little bit older, about 6. I remember that day so well.
I was sitting in the living room with Sasuke, his mom cooking something that smells oddly delicious. I could still remember hearing each vegetable sizzling as it hit the pan.
"Let's do something today!" I yelled out and ran out the door.
Sasuke was behind me as I ran up to the tallest hill in Konoha or at least it felt like that when I was little. We were laughing as we knocked over people to get there. The sun was setting and it seemed perfect. Just sitting here with my best friend and all the time in the world was amazing.
"Hey Sasuke?"
"Hn?" he grunted.
"Promise me that no matter where we go, we'll always be the bestest of friends?" I smiled. "No matter how long we don't see each other, no matter how mad we are at each other, we'll stick out our pinkies and say that we're still friends."
He smiled and locked me pinky, "I promise!" we both said and laughed. We laid down on your stomachs and watched the orange-pink sun disappear.
I smiled as I remembered the good old times. Were he used to be full of life. As I got to his room I set he food down and noticed some commotion outside.
The Sound Nin.
"No." I whispered to myself.
But I knew this had to happen sooner or later, after he got that curse mark. It ruined everything. I watched through the cracked window as Sasuke fought the sound nin. I wanted to do something, but I couldn't expose myself. I watched him as he flew into the tree and cringed.
He performed quite well with the lion barrage even if it shook up the whole house. As one of the sound nins held him by his foot he noticed me looking and I ducked away. I couldn't help it but to look. I couldn't stand what he was about to do, but it was his decision.
I was happy with whatever road he chose, right? As much as I wanted to be okay with this, I couldn't admit to myself the fact that my best friend was leaving me.
As he came through the window I ran towards the hallway and sat to watch him. He packed all his stuff in his backpack while healing his small wounds on his body. He changed into his normal attire and went to his picture frames. I sat there while he stared at his team portrait.
He noticed I was in the hallway and looked at me out of the corner of his eye. Maybe I shouldn't have left the food there.
"Break all bonds…" the sound Nin had said. I felt tears whelm up in my eyes.
He quickly turned the picture upside down. He did that to every one of them, including the one of us as toddlers. Deep down, I know he cares about all of them, even Sakura. He turned to walk out the door and looked at me with a sad stare. It was hard for both of us. One tear escaped my eye, and he bent down and touched my shoulder.
"Thank you, Meya." He said. I stuck out my pinky as soon as he was about to get up. He started at it, no expression on his face.
"Break all bonds…" the voice echoed in my head.
He didn't know what to do. He wasn't supposed to care about anyone anymore and those tears were just building up more. He pushed away my hand and looked away. I don't think he didn't want to see me cry.
"It doesn't matter if you didn't keep out promise…bestest of friends." I whispered. "I promise." Hoping he would hear me.
He looked down and whispered, "I promise.", and slammed the door.
He was gone, and I was alone. I looked over to his bed, the food was gone and I smiled. I'm happy, right? I slowly got up and walked down the stairs. I looked over to the picture frames, and took them.
I put my hand on the doorknob, took one last look at the house and left. As I walked out the cold air hit my body and made me shiver. The walk was going to be long, but good thing I wanted time to think.
Sorry it was so short, I guess it was the intro. Hopefully I'll continue to write more.
