Bonds

Goodbye

   Sasuke has been at the village for about 2 months. In those two months him and Sakura have really progressed in terms of their friendship, relationship, whatever they were. Neither of them were sure. They spent almost every single day with each others company. Naruto was especially happy that their two friends were going on the right track. He knew not to ask or pressure them on their status. All he knew is that they were in love. Even if Sasuke emotionless ass wouldn't visibly show it. He knew, it was his friend after all.

   Those two months were one of Sakura's best months. But she knew and Sasuke knew it was going to have to come to an end. "Are you sure you have to leave?"  Trying to not let a tear escape, Sakura looks down to the ground. Sakura accompanied Sasuke and dropped him off at the Konoha gates. Naruto was with them but decided to give them some privacy so he held back. For the first time, in front of Naruto and in front of anyone he showed he was somewhat human. He allowed himself to have some emotion. He swept her tear away and held her face in his hand. "I'll be back."

   Sakura knew he'd be back, she didn't know when though. He took his hand from her face and hugged her. Naruto was watching as he whispered something in her ear. She looked up and smiled at him. "I'll see you later." He taps on her forehead where her seal is. She blushes. "Goodbye Sasuke-Kun" she yells, as she waves him goodbye.
