I ran as more tears leaked over the edge of my eyes. How could he do this to me? Was it because I left him? Does he hate me? I thought he said he loved me…
I knew where I was running to, I wanted to disappear. I wanted to leave, but I don't know. I wasn't thinking straight. Right now, I really, just wanted to leave.
I looked up, my cheeks were stained over with dry and wet tears.
I seen something pink in the crowd, I ran straight at it. But someone got in the way and I ran into them, I didn't know what to do so I wrapped my arms round the person and started to cry.
"Rin?" A familiar voice said.
I ignored it and continued to cry into the persons chest.
"It's me, Sasuke, why are you crying?" He asked, his voice was slightly angry, but not because I had a good grip on him. He was angry because I was upset.
I hiccupped "Gaara…" I cried "…He's with someone else"
Sasuke's brow frowned "with who?"
I shrugged lightly "I saw him kissing someone else…" My voice cracked and I went back to my crying.
Sasuke wrapped his arms round me "That idiot…" I heard him mutter.
"Sasuke…" I whispered "…I want to leave"
"Sasuke? What's going--Rin?" Sakura's voice said, she rushed over to me immediately. "What happened?" She asked in a worried tone.
"Gaara, she found him with someone else…kissing…." Sasuke said, angrily.
"That jerk!" Sakura said, hugging Rin.
"Sakura…" I cried "…I want to go home with you"
Sakura thought it over "I'd like that, I bet Kurenai and Tsunade are missing you…" She said.
"Can we go now?" I whispered.
"Are you sure you want to go now? Don't you want to talk to Gaara first?"
I shook my head quick and fast "No, I'm sure he's happy right now, I mean, he's with someone else, I'm sure she can comfort him" I said quietly, ignoring the pain in my voice.
"Alright…" Sakura started to drag me away, Sasuke followed behind. "…I'll get a coach and ask them to escort us home" She said.
3 days later Tsunade's P.O.V
I had a bottle of sake in my hand, and I was reading some reports that Shizune had handed me. But I was still wondering when they were going to come back, Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, Gai and Lee. They've been in Suna for the past 2 weeks now.
I smiled as I pulled out a familiar headband. Rin's headband. She was a smart girl, and very enthusiastic. That was until that god damn snake killed her, Orochimaru.
I sighed and put it back down. There was no point in looking back now, she's gone, but still, I like to think of her, she's like the daughter I never had.
The door slammed open and Shizune ran in, shock on her face.
"Lady Tsunade! They're back! But you'll never guess who they brought along!" She said.
"Shizune!" I yelled "Calm down, who have they brought!"
Shizune calmed before saying "Rin"
My eyes went wide and I gasped.
Rin's P.O.V
Sasuke had placed me on his back, carrying me the rest of the way to Konoha. We had just entered the village, and just as expected, Shizune was waiting there to greet them.
"Hello" She said, she then looked at Sasuke and I. "And who is this?" She asked politely.
"Really Shizune? You don't remember Rin?" Sakura asked.
It was only Sakura and Sasuke that had brought me back to Konoha, they rest were probably getting packed and already leaving.
Shizune's eyes widened "R-Rin!" She took off running, probably to inform the Hokage.
"Lets go…" Sasuke said, heading toward the Hokage's building with me on his back.
Suna
Gaara had sat in the dark corner of his room, he had stayed there for the past three days. Not once has he left to go to work. He was confused, he was sad, he was…lonely.
There was only one person on his mind, Rin.
He hadn't kissed Matsuri, she had kissed him. But even Matsuri hadn't known he was engaged. That was until Kakashi had told her and she had been left feeling miserable, not because his heart belonged to another, because she had ruined their relationship.
Gaara held the ring out that belonged to Rin, the one she had dropped on the floor before she left him.
"GAARA!" There was a loud thud at his locked door. Naruto's voice boomed from the other side. "OPEN UP! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU!" He yelled.
Gaara didn't move, he let his sand unlock the door then open it.
Naruto stormed in "Get up!" He ordered.
"No…" Gaara said, his voice had no emotion in it, but you could almost feel the pain in his voice.
Naruto grabbed the top of Gaara's robes and lifted him of the ground.
"You're coming with me to Konoha" He said in an angry voice.
"No…" Gaara hadn't known that Rin had gone to Konoha, he just thought she had left but doesn't know where.
"Yes! You're going to Konoha to see Rin! You're going to tell her what happened!"
Gaara looked into Naruto's eyes with clouded over eyes, he tried to hide his emotions.
"Gaara…" A sad voice said from the doorway "…I think you need to go see her, and I'm coming to, I want to apologise to her" Gaara looked over to see Matsuri with a sorry look on her face.
"And I apologise for hurting you both, I had no idea…" She trailed off.
"See! Don't you see! This was all just a big misunderstanding! So stop shutting us out! We want to help!" Naruto yelled in his face.
Gaara pushed Naruto away "But what if she hates me!" He yelled back.
Naruto shook his head "If she hates you, then why did she say she loves you? Explain or how about this, you figure out if you still want her and meet us at the gate in 30 minutes. If you're not there by then, we're leaving without you" With that, Naruto stormed out.
Matsuri gave Gaara a quick glance before following Naruto.
Gaara glanced out the window and whispered "Please don't hate me…"
Konoha, Hokage's office, Rin's P.O.V
Sasuke had just carried me though the Hokage's office doors and had set me down on my feet.
I was suddenly engulfed in a bone crushing hug.
"Rin! Is that really you!" Tsunade's booming voice said.
I smiled a small, small smile, but it never reached my eyes "Yes…" My voice probably tipped her off. I didn't have any tone to it, it was just blank.
She pulled back and frowned "What's wrong?" She asked.
I shook my head.
"Well, when you feel fit to tell me please do. Now…." She smiled at me "…my, my you have changed. You've become a woman" She commented.
"Yeah, and you don't look a day over 30" I said.
Tsunade beamed at that and hugged me "That's why you're my best friend!"
"Yeah…" I whispered.
Suna, 30 minutes later
"Well, it looks like he's not going to show up, lets go…" Naruto said, starting his walk out of the village.
"Wait! Naruto!" Lee said. "Look!" He pointed to an approaching person.
Naruto looked over his shoulder and smirked "Thought so…" He mumbled.
"Naruto…" Gaara's voice said "…I want her back"
Naruto spun round to grin like an idiot at him "And you'll get her back! I promise! If it's the last thing I do! I'll get you and Rin back together!" He declared.
"I'm with Naruto on that" Matsuri said "I don't want you both to be sad, and I am very sorry for what I have done" Matsuri bowed.
Gaara smiled weakly "Thank you…"
"Then what're we waiting for! LETS FIND YOUR LOVE AND PLEDGE YOUR LOVE FOR HER!" Gai boomed.
Kakashi chuckled "Same old Gai"
"YES! LETS FIND RIN!" Lee said.
"Lets go!" Naruto pointed out into the desert.
I think it's kinda corny, but I'll let you be the judge of that. Please review =D
