"Naruto I can't wait till the wedding." said an excited, and prettiest girl he ever seen. "Yeah, I know. But I don't want to plan it. Could you do it, Sakura?" he pleaded. "This is girls' stuff"
"Fine!" she said with a look of disappointment. "Hey! Your gay. Shouldn't you love this kind of stuff?" she asked, with a puzzled expression.
He was offended a bit. "I may be gay, but I don't like this girly crap." he answered back, slightly angrier than he meant. "Fine! Anyways… read me your vows." she with that smile girls get when they get overly excited about something. He took out something from his pocket. "You promised you wouldn't laugh." "Yeah, yeah, go on with it." she said losing her patience, but keeping her smile.
He opened the paper and started reading.
"It took me some time to get use to your bossy ways, always calling me a dobe, and not liking ramen. I mean who doesn't love a good Miso Ramen, but I look past that. You tolerated my loudness, my lateness, my clumsiness, and even my ramen problem. Yet, you still approved of me. You helped me over come my fears of loving another. You stayed with me through my struggle to find inner happiness. You showed me happiness, friendship, respect, and praise, which all I never had before. You believed in me. You protected me. You encouraged me. You loved me. So now, in front of everyone who is important to me, I, Naruto Uzumaki, vow with my life and my heart, to commit myself to the most precious person in my life, for the rest of my life, you, because I love you, Sasuke Uchiha. "
He looked up to see Sakura crying. "What's wrong? Is it that horrible?" he asked with a sad and confused face. "No, Naruto. It was just so…so… beautiful!" she wailed through her tears. Naruto gave her a ticked off face. "Thank god I'm gay! I can't handle these girls with their… e-mo-tions." He thought in disgust.
The memories kept coming back, until he remembered them all.
Out of Naruto's HeadNaruto blinked to find himself in the very same hospital room as before. He saw Sakura at the side of his bed sleeping. I looked like she cried herself to sleep. He nudged her awake. "…no…he cant…please.." she said in her sleep. Naruto nudged her harder to wake her up from her nightmare.
She woke up and looked up at Naruto and started to cry again. "What's wrong? I'm okay. I remember everything now. Don't cry." he said trying, to comfort her, but she kept on going anyway. Then it hit him.
He didn't want to seem rude but he wanted to know what happened to Sasuke, so he asked. Sakura started crying even harder when he asked, but manage to tell me. "Noooooo!" he yelled. He was angry, sad, and felt guilty. He wouldn't believe it. He didn't want to believe it. Five Days Later
It was a tough five days and no one decided to bother Naruto, which he was so grateful for. Cops said it happen due to self-defense and his lack of memory. He wasn't guilty, but he felt he was guilty. "It's all my fault. It's all my fault." He thought as tears came down.
Today was the funeral. He didn't hear what the preacher said. What his friends and family said. He knew none of them hurt as much as he did. When it was his turn to say something at the gravesite, he got up and said his vows.
"…You loved me. So now, in front of everyone who is important to me, I, Naruto Uzumaki, vow with my life and my heart, to commit myself to the most precious person in my life, for the rest of my life, you, because I love you, Sasuke."
People were confused at to why he was saying his vows, but Naruto just ignored them. He took out a ring on a necklace, walk over to the casket, and but it over Sasuke's head. And whispered to the lifeless ear, "You'll never be gone in my heart." He then straitened up and left the funeral. While walking he could've sworn he saw a ghostly Sasuke, smirking at him and mouthing, "I love you, too." He just smiled and thought, "Yeah, teme. I know you're not gone."
