Chapter Text
He didn’t know how his legs carried him to the funeral, his head was swirling with none ending thoughts. How could he possibly be here? it doesn’t make any sense.
Sasuke hated funerals and the dark places surrounding them, and the weeping that filled them. He attended many of them that he definitely didn’t want to add his sun funeral to the count.
He was stuck, he didn’t want to confirm his biggest fears by opening that door. He was hesitant and his trembling hands was showing.
"Are you okay?" Sakura came into his view, noticing his stance. Her smile was wary, she was barely holding on herself. It took him a long time to reply, "I am. "
He took a sharp breath before forcing his legs to move, opening the ceremonial door. All it greeted him was the empty room, like how he remembered. He felt dread fill his entire body, he couldn’t look away from Naruto’s framed photograph. His smile was beautiful and charming. Surrounded by white chrysanthemums, weirdly enough the flowers can be counted by his fingers alone. He felt angry. Naruto had lived alone, and now he had died alone.
Now he realized that he was gone forever. His sunshine, his gentle touch, his comforting warmth. Everything that belonged to him was gone.
He sat down, his legs betraying him. Holding his knees to his chest, feeling like a lost child once again. Tears welled up, uncontrollably sobbing and a feeling of helplessness. Naruto never deserved such a funeral.. never.. he felt even lonelier. His grief was unbearable, choked and broken cries teared from his throat.
It was a sad sight to witness, his weeping filled the silence room. The more he cried, the more his pain grew heavier. He had lost his world, everything to him.
"Naruto, you know I hate funerals."
“You are so cruel.”
“I need you, nothing feels normal.”
“I’m scared…”
His stone shined with big letters.
