chapter 2

"I left because I was a coward. I couldn't take it when you was giving pieces of yourself to Neji. I didn't know what to do with myself so I left," Sasuke said with a timid voice.
"Sasuke.." Naruto started but was interrupted by Sasuke's, "let me finish..please."

Sakura felt like for the first time in her life she could understand Sasuke. because thats how she felt when she watched him giving his full attention to Naruto. She felt like crying for herself, for Sasuke too.

''Even when you were drowning in your emotions at that training trip, I couldn't save you. I just watched you drown but Neji came and let you hold him through all those nights and you were alright. As if he was all you needed to feel alright. whenever I saw you with him it looked like he was all you need to feel happy, he was all you ever needed.''

Sasuke finished a little breathless.
Shikamaru too felt breathless. Because he had seen how Neji had relaxed after fighting Naruto. How he has gotten more relaxed when he reached jonin and going out of village for solo missions just two year after Naruto left. So they met outside. then if Sasuke knew all this then he also had contacts with Naruto.''how they have fooled us.''he snorted out lightly.

Kakashi looked at him liike  he was thinking the same.

''I didn't know Naruto and Neji had hidden their relationship from us for that long.'' Ino said to no-one in particular. she was surprised she didn't notice anything earlier.

''we will probably never know this if it wasn't for Tsunade sama's seal''added Tented.

''Guy sensei..?'' Lee confusedly looked at his teacher.
Everyone else in the room looked at him.
''I knew Neji had a lover outside of the village, thats why I always gave him free reign after a team mission but I didn't know that it was Naruto,'' Guy said to the room while scratching his chin.

They couldn't continue farther as the other rooms occupants started to talk again.

''He is all I ever needed Sasuke,''it was said with such a serene determination that the people listening it all felt their heart clench.

''And he died happily leaving you when he clearly knew this,'' Sasuke countered bittterly, there was a booming laugh that was coming from Naruto.

Everyone was cofused by his laugh.

''He died happily because he was happy in my arms, he trusted me to do the things I promised I will do. I know he didn't have any regrets. He always believed that he will die before me and I am not angry at him for leaving me I just know I will never be able love anyone else with my whole being like I love him'' Naruto finally said after his laughing creased.
''and that's why I won't marry you, Naruto'' said Sasuke.
And there was silence with the occasional sound of drinks.

''I am not surprised at Naruto because he is a very passionate man'' said Shino while pushing his sunglass more farmly against his eyes.

''lets not ever use this seal again Tsunade sama'' Shikamaru groaned out and everyone chimed with a ''agree.''

They ordered more drinks everyone was on their on mind.
"Who knew Naruto had this side to him," chimed Kiba.
"Naruto is kind but he is not honest about himself to anyone," Sai said while drinking a glass of sake.
"Dosen't he trust us?" Choji asked, for once not eating.
"He trust us with his life but unfortunately not with his heart," Tsunade added solemnly.
"We shouldn't talk about this to Naruto," Kurenai added while grilling some meat.
"That would be the best," Guy added seriously.
"But did the fourth hokage really choose death because of his wife?" suddenly asked Kiba and all the members looked at him with wide eyes they almost missed that because of the other heavy topic.
Kakashi looked like he had constipation. He really didn't want to think that way about his mentor.
"I always wondered about that," Tsunade said with a thoughtful look.
"What do you mean Tsunade sama?" asked Sakura.
Now everyone was looking at Tsunade.
"You know Minato could've used deferent seal and still lived after sealing kyubi in Naruto and himself but there was no way to save Kushina," Tsunade said while drinking even more sake.
"Sound like he didn't want to live anymore," Shikamaru added after her.
Kakashi couldn't argue because deep inside his heart he too had doubts.
