♡ Part 93: seething sorrow ♡

TO SASUKE

did he really deserve to have the chance to speak to naruto again? after everything he's done?

'.....'

naruto: i'm just, dammit. teme, we need to talk 

the blonde released his loosely tightened fists as he dragged his eyes back up to meet the slightly confused ones of the raven. shikamaru barely ever placed his input into many conflicts--- but the fact that he did now, for this, it went to show that there was no longer a reason to keep this conflict going. 

was there even a reason in the first place?

sasuke: hmph

suigetsu: i'll keep the practice going, you can go talk to naruto alone, man. 

sasuke's response to suigetu's kindness was a blink and he steadily made his way to the boy who eagerly waited for him at the bench. onyx traveled down to the floor but before they reached it, they were met with an ankle that obviously hid a brace with his pants. a delicate frown creased his face but he then made his way to naruto. 

shikamaru: i'll let you guys sort this troublesome problem out

the nara laced his fingers above his head and left the duo to speak alone. 

although that only let a cold feeling to run through the both of them. 

sasuke: let's go into the hall

naruto: yeah

TO SAKURA

lunch seemed like it was much longer than what it should have been. once she looked towards the clock that hung itself proudly on the wall to remind the students of the amount of time they had before their dreading and boring classes began again, she noticed that there was still 10 minutes until the bell was supposed to ring. 

ino: you keep looking at the time

sakura: that's because lunch is going on forever

ino: and you're not happy about that? 

sakura: ...

she shook her head and continued to speak with her friends despite the cloudiness that accompanied her head. 

TO SASUKE

he was pushed to a wall with a pair of hands that tightly yet shakily gripped onto the neck hole of his shirt. naruto held onto sasuke as a type of seething sorrow lingered in his eyes

naruto: how does it feel when you're the one who's about to get beaten up? 

sasuke: ....

naruto: all i wanted was for sakura to be happy. she's gone through so much y'know.... and now look at us? we've only added to that list

sasuke: then beat me up and we'll be even

naruto: this isn't about getting even, sasuke. 

even though his words didn't seem like he'd do this, he kept his left hand tightened around sasuke's shirt while the other began to go up on his neck and grab a hold of it. the raven's eyes returned to it's uninterested look as he stared at naruto

naruto: i really want to beat you up. not to get even but for everything you did to sakura. all she ever did was love you! why couldn't you see that! 

sasuke: she kissed you behind my back and didn't even tell me, hmph

naruto: i kissed her, she didn't kiss me

the raven's brow twitched

naruto: she didn't do anything like that at all. we were alone on the balcony and she said stuff about the cloud and stars but then i took it the wrong way because i was just jealous. she never initiated anything romantic y'know, but i was the one who confessed. i was the one who made things romantic. i'm the one who kissed her without permission, twice
