Y/n's POV

I always had this bad habit of being shy. It was my main obstacle to almost anything. It was stopping me from enjoying something really awesome or meeting new people. It was stopping me from going out and proving to everyone what I could really do, who I really was.

From a young age I had almost no one by my side. I was alone, because I was too shy to talk to the other kids or even try to play with them. So I always ended up in the corner with a book in my hands to read or my sketchbook to draw. I felt bad for myself. I was pitiful. I always was. Until one day the new kid decided that I was the best choice for a friend among all the other kids. I still remember that day. The day that the new black haired kid walked up to me and sat beside me to draw together. The day that I made my very first friend.

-"I am Shisui Uchiha! Let's be friends!"

After that day he never left me alone. He was always there by my side ready to help me as a true friend would do. He always stick up to me. He never let anyone to bully me or even try to be mean at me. He always had my back. He always defended me. Sometimes I thought that he was my friend out of pity. However, I never had enough courage to ask him that. Even if it was true, I wanted to continue living in that little lie.

Shisui was a bold person. Most of the time he acted without thinking. He also had that strange humor that made everyone laugh despite how bad the joke could be. He was always happy. So happy that it made me wonder how hard he was fighting with his demons. He never let that smile disappear from his face. He always had it there, even in the most tough days.

Years passed faster than expected, but we never lost touch. We always found ways to talk to each other and meet up. We always found ways to be together. And the most amazing thing was that he never let me down. He was there to make sure that I wasn't going to miss anything. He made sure that I will experience everything even once in my life. And indeed I experienced everything, even love. After a few years he became the only reason that I would wake up at the morning. He was the reason I was checking my phone all day. He was the reason I wanted to be happy. Loving someone is such a great feeling. It made me feel so much more confident than ever. So confident that eventually I built enough courage to reveal my feelings to him. I was ready to confess to him.

-"(Y/n) let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Izumi."

I was late. If I wasn't so shy, so stupid, I would have been able to reveal my feelings to him. I would have been able to be happy.

After that day I distanced myself from him. I distanced myself from everyone. I wanted to be alone. However, that was impossible, but still with time I managed to make Shisui stop talking so much to me and trying to make me go out. We became two people that knew each other. We were almost strangers.

That's what I deserved for being so shy my entirely life.

-"(Y/n)?"

A voice asked me making me look up from the book I was reading. There, right in front of me, was the only person that I was trying to avoid, the only person that I wanted to forget.

-"Shisui? Hey, how are you doing?"

My smile was fake and I am sure that he could tell that himself as well. However, he just played along and hugged me as he sat beside me on the bench. He was much muscular from the last time I saw him and his hair had gotten longer. He had a more mature look on his face that matched perfectly the black suit that he was wearing. He looked amazing as always.

-"I have been great. You know as great as I can be with my work in the police station." he answered as he put his hands around his hot drink to keep them warm from the cold weather.
-"How have you been? It's been so long since we last went out."

-"I am good actually. Busy with work and stuff, but good enough to be able to relax with a book outside before the snow comes."

-"Ah yes! You published a book, right?" he asked me excited.

-"Yes, but not something special." I answered with an awkward smile.

-"Of course it's special! It's your first book!" he told me with a bright smile.
-"I am searching for it so I can buy it as well. It's harder than I thought to find it."

-"Yeah. It looks like it got famous fast." I told him as I put the book I was reading in my bag.

I wanted to leave. I wanted to disappear as I always do after an encounter with him. It reminds me all the things that I want to forget. It reminds me of my love for him.

-"Other than that, I was planning on calling you anyway." he said as he reached in his pocket pulling out a small white envelope.
-"This is an invitation to my wedding."

For a moment I felt my heart breaking even more. For a moment that fake happy smile disappeared from my face. For a moment I was ready to cry and scream from all the pain that I was feeling. However, I quickly pulled myself together and hugged him as I  congratulate him with a bright smile.

-"I am really happy for you! Congratulations!"

-"Thank you." he answered as he returned the hug.
-"Izumi and I would be more than happy to see you in the wedding or at least the ceremony."

-"I will try my best, but don't expect much." I told him as I took the envelope in my hands.

-"Please try harder. I missed us hanging out." he told me with a somehow sad look in his black eyes.

-"Well, I have a career to look at. I can't always play around, can I?"

-"You changed."

-"People change Shisui."  I said serious as I stood up ready to leave.
-"It was nice talking with you. See you around."

I didn't receive an answer, but I wasn't expecting one either. It was clear that I didn't want to be around him and if he didn't understand that now, he won't understand it any other time. I know that I was a little harsh with him, cruel, but it was the only way. It was the only way that would make him stop following me around. I didn't need him anymore. I had more serious things to look at, such as my career as a writer, which was in a really good way.

-"Sorry Shisui, maybe another time." I whispered as I threw the envelope in a bin far away from where we were sitting.

There are many unfinished stories waiting for me at home. I don't have time to play around. I have to be serious. I have to forget.

The end.
