This man standing now in front of her, this man who showed her the true meaning of LOVE, he was her present. The only one her heart opened up to, the only one allowed to hold her hand, the only one to guide her in cloudy & rainy days. This was MINATO NAMIKAZE, a man she loved, unconditionally, deeply, madly.
He gave her affection, gave part of himself so she could become a whole & she gave the broken parts of her soul to fill the empty space on his being. For him, she would cross the ocean, fight battles for countless days with no rest, would sacrifice her happiness in order to see a smile in those so cherished features of his, for him, she would.
When thoughts of negativity filled her psycho, he would assure to light up the darkest corners of her mind.
For everything he had done for her, up until this exact moment, was thankful. And as every single day, would try to let him know the size of her love - this size that could not be given by using a measuring tape, an infinite feeling.
The presents, the cake, the little surprises the day would reserve — Oh, these held no importance in the moment. This was meaningless compared to the CONFESSION that would flow when her rosy lips parted;
“And... If I speak with my heart will my words reach you?There
were many questions such as this one that I had inside my mind
when I tried to confess years ago. Somehow you kept all of your
feelings for yourself during a long time, making me think that only
friendship emotions would fill your head when you heard my name.”
( a brief pause along with a faint chuckle; )
“Do you know how I feel looking at you everyday?Will you accept
my feelings?If you give into this love then I won't expect anything
else, you're enough. — I used to think this way, but never said a word,
because you know how bad I am expressing my feelings.”
Slender fingers would caress the tanned skin, plum-colored irises would examine every trait his beautiful face could offer.
, “Before I wish a happy birthday, before Naruto coming home with
your cake, before I lose the courage to confess my feelings for you
again as I've been doing for the past years, I want you to know, that
I found how love is important with YOU. There can't be happiness
without you, Minato.”
“Happy Birthday. I love you.”
