………………………………………………………………………………

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

When I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide

I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide
Don't stop here I've lost my place I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide – By Howie Day

Chapter.3 Collide

How could she explain what Tobi was? It was harder than she thought it would have been. It wasn't that he was a complex kind of person he wasn't Kakashi or Sasuke. When you learnt psychology, you had to analyze the exterior before you got to the interior. You had to study there habits, and lifestyle.

Tobi's day consisted of pretty much walking around and looking at her. So instead, she spent her time cleaning the old building. Finding new and interesting crevices to wash and renew, making it shine and sparkle. So Sakura decided today would be Tobi's first session, or Madara's whichever came out. Although truth be told she wished it would be Tobi, she was safer with him.

Tobi sighed; Sakura had decided today that they would start there sessions. He hoped Madara would not talk, but Tobi was not known to have much lick. He sat awkwardly onto the couch that was placed in the sunlit room. The drapes gently swaying to the rhythm of the wind. Sakura walked in and sat on a chair looking directly at him.

The sound of paper being shuffled and cleaned up were the only sounds in the room. Finally, Sakura placed them in a small pile next to the chair, with a paper weight in them. She held a notebook and a pen in her hands, prepared to interrogate him. Tobi hoped the questions wouldn't be to hard, he hated tests. "Take a deep breath", Tobi thought.

"What is your favorite color?" Sakura said, clearly in the quiet room. Tobi thought this would be hard. "Orange," Tobi said, to which Sakura quickly jotted down. "What is your greatest fear, Tobi?" Tobi panicked for a moment, what was his greatest a truest fear. Over the years, Tobi had had many; like spiders, the dark, being alone, and Madara.

But maybe Tobi's greatest fear at the moment was having Sakura leave. Life just wasn't fair, to bring a woman into his life, and then take her away. It was an odd form of torture Tobi was not familiar with. Sakura was still waiting patiently for him to answer. "Tobi is afraid of the nightmares Tobi has, Miss Sakura."

Sakura wrote down "nightmares", she was curious to know what sort if nightmares. "Tobi can you tell me what sort of nightmares you have?" Sakura said gently, so as not to pressure him. "Tobi does not wish to speak of nightmares anymore. Sorry Miss Sakura if Tobi has disappointed you. Tobi will go now." Before Sakura could say otherwise, Tobi was up and out the door. She had asked only three questions, had gotten two answered. And was still suspended in suspense about Tobi's nightmares.

Tobi really did feel bad for ditching Sakura; he just wasn't ready for that kind of question. His nightmares were for him alone to know, and for Madara to make fun of. They were personal, and had been accruing ever since he could remember. His memories though were jumbled and very few. So making new one's were crucial to saving his humanity.

Sakura still sat, looking at the spot where Tobi had once vacated. Tobi was an open book sometimes, and other times was closed and locked up. Her world had collided with Tobi's, but she didn't mind. She didn't mind at all.
