15 years later and I still find myself coming back to this. You were able to say so much with so little; when I need an example of beautiful writing I find myself looking this up. Thank you for sharing this with us.

This was sooo amazing. Emotionally, well written and everything that is good.
I'm amazed that you published this in 2005 but you guessed sooooooo perfect the way Sasuke was going to be more then 10 years later. Wow. Not that he changed that much from when he was genin, but not that he didn't either. Anyway. You did an absolutely amazing job on this. Thanks.

So sweet.

Lovely. What a beautiful insight on Sasuke Uchiha. I enjoyed the fast-pace, especially when it was so well written!

That was cute! :)

Mmm... {lacks the words}

Found myself going back to this, after reading the end of the manga, because you were right- "nothing so easy for Sasuke and Sakura." Still, if they were less complex, they probably wouldn't inspire great fiction like this, and I wouldn't love them as much (making me realize thatbI'm a bit of a masochist). This remains one of my all-time favorite pieces of work- fanfiction or not.

love it in tires it was beautiful if there was a way to mark it it would be a 1000 or more as high as it could go!

very nice

This was beautiful and sad and wonderful all at once...it was so good, I've never read a oneshot with this many reviews :)

Not a SasuSaku fan... I'm ShikaTema through and through but damn this was a good fic :D

Wow, very good!

Maybe this isn't what I wanted or even envisioned but this is Sakura and Sasuke. I've learned to be content with their own kind of happiness and budding hope. Because while I fancy her to be by his side, I've always felt it was one sided and had no possible future except for heart break. A bittersweet form of love. An unrequited one. But tumblr and lj convinced me that there was hope. That while he didn't return her feelings, he appreciated and cared for her in his own subtle way. He could learn to love and be happy together with her. If only he let her in. Like he did here, slowly but surely. A path to redemption and maybe a chance of happiness.

Good story.

That was both sad and wonderful, both if that makes any sense. He loved her but yet there was so much loss involved in the love. I can't help but think that the pain he felt could have been re leaved if he would have only admitted it when it first happened instead of concealing it.
