Words from the roseate replayed over and over again, so desperately trying to break through tumultuous and overwhelming thoughts of his own. Oh — how he felt like throwing his arms up and SCREAMING on the top of his lungs just to quiet this confusion, to curse the cruelty that fate had shrouded them with. The beating muscle within his chest had always been his reinforcement behind his fire, his decisions — his feelings towards anything. Just being this close to her broke down and s h a t t e r e d the walls his heart tried so hard to uphold. I love you — could he return those words back?
( He knew the answer, didn’t he ? )
Silence stood as arms only brought her closer now, a familiar warmth inside the embrace. Did ears capture the sounds that erupted from inside? And then — he could only hear the sound of her breathing, those devoted syllables resonating. The woman that he had always cherished, the woman that had never left his mind even after all these years — what was there to question? Here, it seemed like every doubt in the world disappeared — that it was just them and no one else around. ( Why was there question ? )
❝Sakura - chan —❞ He whispered.
Will fate allow us to love each other again?
❝How did I ever let you go?❞
A half step is taken once the pressure from his arms is felt, coming closer until her forehead was pressed against broad chest. She held it there for a moment or so before turning her head to the right, ear being pressed above the beating muscle - the most soothing sound of them all. A sound she had missed so badly, those nights where they would lay together with her head on his chest so peaceful and so perfect. That sound was enough to mute the noise inside her head.
Breathing remains deep, hands falling to the sides only to slide between his arms and waist, holding onto his sides tightly.
Please, don’t ever let me go again..
Chuckling while still teared up, Sakura shut her eyes and held onto him just a little tighter for a couple of seconds before returning her grip to normal, to how it was before.
❝ I was stupid.. Stupid for thinking that we wouldn’t be able to deal
with the distance, for thinking that our love wouldn’t be strong
enough.. I should have had more faith, i shouldn’t have let you go.. ❞
