Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ The Letters Of Your Name Spell My Love ❯ A is for Alone ( Chapter 1 )

Hello everyone! This is going to be a series of 26 themed drabbles based around the NarutoXHinata pairing, maybe with some others thrown in. Actually, it will be more then 26, because some letters may have more than one.

 

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. :P

A is for Alone

 

Ever since he could remember, he had been alone. Lived alone, ate alone, slept alone. There had been no one to cry to, no one to laugh with, no one at all. He hadn't had any friends.

 

Then there had been one. A teacher, named Iruka. Iruka-sensei was nice to him. He bought him ramen, and acted somewhat at a father figure to him. Naruto found he liked having someone, even if it was just one. But he was still alone.

 

Then there were others, three, to be exact. They were Chouji, Shikamaru, and Kiba. They got in trouble with him, and played with him. They were his first friends. He liked them. But as he watch the disgruntled brush off dirt, moms ruffle hair and dads rough-house, he felt very much alone.

 

Then there was Sasuke. The enigma, Sasuke. Sasuke, who was also alone. And as he grinned at the boy's back, he felt not quite so alone, knowing there was someone else who was alone.

 

There were others. Teammates, friends, sensei, each making the loneliness in his heart dwindle down until there was only a speck that only appeared when there really was no one around.

 

“I-I've always watched Naruto-kun, a-and he's not a loser! H-he's n-not a monster! I-I-I-I think he's th-the best!” Naruto stared in shock at the shy girl adamantly stating what she thought about him, and somewhere deep inside he felt that one last speck shrivel up and die. And he realizes, as he envelopes the blushing girl in his arms, that he was never quite alone as he thought.

Well, it was longer than I expected, but it came out fairly decent, I think! Please review!
