A/N: Whoa whoa whoa! It's been quite a long time, hasn't it? Well, I won't delve into it much, but this is super short, but I really like it. It's a surprise I even wrote this, if you look at my profile about my stories. Well then, on the the actual story for you to read!
Spoilers of recent chapters!
Remember, Kishimoto is the one that gave us the beautiful confession from Hinata, not I.
Kiss the Sky
Rating: K
In her mind, his eyes were the perfect blue.
She remembers all the time she spent, looking up into the sky over the years. She noted the clouds and birds that passed, or whether it was dark with an approaching storm.
But she loved when it was clear, so she could see the ocean that hung above the world.
This ocean of blue that engulfed everything. She loved those days the best, with the bright sun and blue skies. They would be taking a break from training, and just rest as the only thing moving above was the bright sun.
Every time she saw that sky on the perfect days, it reminded her of him.
His eyes were just like the sky, she noted.
Closing her eyes, she could picture him perfectly, smiling back at her. His eyes were just as loud as his blond hair and his orange jacket, but it could bring peace of mind to you.
Her mind went back to that-
Confessing to him, and facing that man.
All her strength was ready to be unleashed- and she could remember his eyes staring at her in surprise. They were still that same color.
Here she is now, recovering. They all knew she had no chance against the Akatsuki member, yet she tried anyway. Just to help him, save him.
She's pretty much entirely healed by now, except for a minor bruise or cut here and there, and is helping restore the village. She has heard of the mission that the others have gone to, and how he followed. She understands, as the thought of catching Sasuke-kun now is a chance not to be missed. They're trying once more, but she won't know if it succeeds.
The thought of seeing him returning with his beautiful eye cast down in failure hurts her, though. She really hopes that won't happen. Being him, there surely has to be a breakthrough, with some ray of hope. Sakura-chan needs it. They all need it.
She feels a bit silly focusing so much on just the color of his pupils. It could be how his bright eyes are always a breath of fresh air, as it seems no one else has eyes as vibrant as his. If there was anyone with blue eyes, they dulled in comparison to his.
Because really, he was the sky. She could get lost in the ocean of his blue, with the constant yellow of the sun always there. It was really amazing, despite the absurd idea of his hair being something like the bright star and him having more gold than blue. Simply, he was those bright, sunny, cloudless days that brought warmth to every inch of skin it touched on her. She couldn't help but bathe in the warmth; everyone enjoys basking in the rays. It gave a sense of peace and comfort.
She stopped a moment, and craned her neck upwards. It was another day of that kind of sky- open with nothing blocking the view. The sun was high in the center, but it was starting to loom back down to the Earth, where it would set and the blue sky would turn dark.
She stared at the intense blue for a long time, and couldn't help but picture him in her mind. His eyes, the perfect blue they were, staring back at her with the same energy he always had throughout the years. She closed her eyes and stared at the image for a few moments, saving the memory before going back to helping.
If she could, she would kiss the sky.
A/N: When I was writing this story last night, I stared wondering about something... How much do they know of outer space in the Narutoverse? My head-canon says they at least know the sun is a star.
Well, I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, do leave a comment!
