Note from the Author: Here's another random not-originally-written-as-fan-fiction-but-somehow-ended-up-that-way fic.

I guess it's NaruSasu. And I don't care which POV you take – it works both ways.

Firefly

I wonder if you were a firefly.

Flashing into existence, fading away, forcing the mind to consider that maybe you were never there at all, just a fleeting glimpse of a passing fancy, until you spark up again, and I was sure of it this time, you were real.

I remember vividly the way I caught you, wrapping my arms around you - like cupping you in my hands, sneaking delightfully sinful little gazes through my fingers at your evanescent beauty.

I didn't realize how trapped you were in my embrace - panicking, dizzied, frenzied, wing beats against my skin – until I let you go and you didn't come back - I set you free and you flew away.

I wonder sometimes if you were a firefly ...

After all, I never saw you by daylight.
