Hello all!!! Sorry for the insanely long wait. I really am sorry. But now I have an update! Yay!
I kinda like doing the short chapters
I know everyone likes longer ones… but this way my inspiration doesn't run out as quickly
So I will be updating much more regularly now.
Because I know I've been ignoring you..
But no more!
I fell back in love with this story
Disclaimer: Would Kishi update this slowly? No. Because he owns Naruto and I don't
She knew where she was headed
Her tears had stopped
Leaving shimmery trails in their wake
Her breathing still shuddered occasionally
She walked slowly now
Letting each step jolt her body
reassuring her decision
Methodically she walked
Her long slim legs carrying her gracefully
She straightened her shoulders
If he wanted her..
Truly wanted her..
He would fight for her
He would chase her
So she would let him
let him prove his love to her
She had done all she could to show him
No longer would her shyness cripple her
She had told him what she felt
Her heart throbbed with mixed pain and pleasure
She thought of what he said to her
Yet..
Why hide?
She would test him
As he had tested the strength of her love
Everyday
As he ignored her
Pushed her away
Everyday
He flaunted his love for another
Making her eyes sting constantly
From thousands of unshed tears
Her step quickened
The sunlight made her squint
Soon she saw it
The place
The training ground
The place where she had her first real conversation
With the man she had loved wholeheartedly
Before any other
She had noticed him
And he had ignored her
It was time to prove himself..
Would he remember?
Would he know where she had gone?
Did he notice the subtleties of who she was?
As she did his?
If it had been him..
He would have gone to the Team 7 training ground
And touched the pole where he had been tied
But did he know her special place?
Did he know where she went?
He needed to chase her
Win her
His feet moved on their own
His gaze swept around wildly
Looking for flashes of dark locks
Looking for a slender figure
Looking for her
His heart seemed to crumble apart
Each step
And no sight of her
Where was she?
How would he know where she was?
He stopped suddenly
Shook his head
How could he claim to love her
When he couldn't even find the place she would run to
For comfort
For safety
He should know this
She probably knew all his favorite haunts
She knew everything about him
And there was the key
She knew all about him
She knew that he wouldn't give up
Knew that if he truly wanted her
He would never stop searching
Never stop chasing her
If it took him the rest of his life
He would find her
He would chase her
He would prove himself
Prove that he loved her
Even though he didn't deserve her
She was always there for him
He started walking aimlessly
He knew she watched him
Even when he was young
And it was because he knew
that she knew of his struggle
That he could let her see his
Smiley
Sunshine
Laidback
Attitude
His façade
His mask
Fall
When he first got the courage
To ask for outside help
To let someone in
that day when he thought he wouldn't make it past the preliminary
Back when he was still trying to rival Sasuke
Merely to be accepted into the team
It was on that day
When all confidence
All bravado
Had fled from him
That he saw her
Little ballerina movements
Betraying her timidity
Yet
She knew about him
She was the one who encouraged him
With small words
But each one
Lifted his heart to the weight of a feather
She made him feel easy
Accepted
Whole
Included
Loved
Loved… she made him feel loved
From the first moment he ever heard her voice
Back at the training grounds
The training grounds!
Naruto turned around and started to sprint.
He would find her
And more suspense
More more more
Although I must apologize for the long awaited update
I took forever I know.
I apologize.
Now I just have to update To the one I adore.
Love you all!
Review! REVIEW! Pretty pretty please
