Who: Sakura, Sasuke and Naruto
When: Thursday, May 15th, 2008. Early evening.
What: Sakura found out that her parents are getting a divorce so Naruto saw fit to visit her, and so did Sasuke.
Where: Sakura's house.
Warnings: Angst? FRIENDSHIP?
AIM or LJ? LJ
Open?: Open but ONLY to Itachi, apparently, ...if he wants to randomly show up. XD

Naruto just couldn't wrap his head around the idea of divorce. He had never known his own parents, never really got to see other parents in action except for on TV and in the movies (but who knows how accurate those are). He saw Sakura's parents chitchat with one another minimally on the few occasions that he visited Sakura's house in the past, and they had seemed happy... Then again, it's almost impossible to know what's going on inside of someone; their thoughts and their feelings masked by friendly smiles. Poor Sakura didn't seem to see this coming at all either...

On one level Naruto was unnerved that this could even happen at all. How can two people who were in love start fighting and fall out of love? Falling out of love...that seemed impossible. Maybe the possibility of it just scared him, because it was the most terrifying thing he could think of; not being in love and not being loved in return was too much like loneliness -- that was the greatest pain, in Naruto's opinion.

He had Sasuke, whom he loved beyond mere words. ...Could he ever fall out of love with him? The thought alone would make his mind scream itself hoarse in protest. He also had Sakura-chan, who he couldn't bare to be without. These people meant the world to him... He imagined that's sort of what it must be like with parents, too. Ones who treat you right and are there for you, at least. And he imagined Sakura's parents were like that, because she was such a wonderful girl and she deserved no less.

It wasn't quite sympathy, but he felt for Sakura in a way that made his heart constrict.

So once Naruto and Sasuke had exchanged a glance and a nod, they set about going to her place together. But first Naruto grabbed a box of tissues like he had said he would, and they stopped at a video rental place to pick up a girly chick flick. Once they reached her front door, Naruto took the initiative to knock loudly in a characteristic way. He clutched the movie to his chest, keeping his eyes focused on the door, his smile at the ready to greet her with the hopes that he'll get a genuine one from her in return.

naruto, sasuke
