A/N: Hey guys! I'M NOT DEAD! I'm sorry I haven't been updating A Thousand Miles. I've been experiencing writer's block. Hopefully, these drabbles will be able to get me moving. xD;
Exception
His eyes wandered towards the village that was increasingly growing in size as he grew closer and closer. A light blanket of snow fell over the Earth, and his eyes continued looking at the village.
I wonder how much has changed.
His mind wandered to the memories that he had left behind eight years ago. He wondered how much had changed between all the people he knew, and perhaps, secretly cared about while he was still there. He knew of Naruto and Sakura, and of their increasing popularity in enemy territory.
So Sakura finally blossomed after all.
He slowly walked into the large gates, his eyes wandering. The stars were above him, the villagers long asleep. He turned and wandered past the place where he had last left the cherry blossom, and continued walking towards his deserted manor. He would tell the new Hokage of his appearance later; he needed rest.
Did she move on?
He shook his head disapprovingly. It would be better if she had moved on to someone else; he knew that even though he had secretly cared for her through the years, it would be foolish of him to think of her to keep her promise.
I'll wait for you forever. I love you more than anything...
He sighed and ran his long fingers through his raven hair. He wondered if he would be able to love, show emotion; he had, after all, accomplished his goals. The only one remaining was to revive the Uchiha clan.
"...Sasuke?"
He completely stopped, his body tensing from the voice he had long forgotten. He sensed her slow and hesitant footsteps coming towards him, her heart seeming to beat faster and against her ribs. When he knew she was right behind him, he turned around, looking at her curiously. Her eyes were the same, tears beginning to form.
"Are you back for good this time?"
He hesitated for a moment, thinking of the most fitting answer. He couldn't guarantee his presence in the village; after all, many of the Sound ninja, and perhaps the Akatsuki, were after him. She seemed to sense this and nodded, a tiny smile present on her lips.
"I told you."
He again looked at her curiously, and was taken aback when her smile had fully blossomed, tears of joy slowly running down her pale cheeks.
"Forever is a long time," he harshly said.
She managed to let off a strained laugh, and shook her head, her smile still fully present on her rosy lips.
"But I waited."
He wasn't one to believe in foolish promises.
But he'd make an exception this one time.
