"(Y/n)!"

I blink dumbfounded as familiar faces rushed toward the Konoha entrance where sasuke and I stood.

"(Y/n)! Finally! I was so worried about you!" Naruto exclaimed pulling me into a bear hug.

"C-Can't b-breathe"

Letting out a sigh, Kakashi places his hand on naruto's shoulder and pulls him away from me.

"The land of iron enemies did not harm her but you might."

Naruto sheepishly chuckle "sorry about that"

"Here, these are for you." Ino smiled handing me a lovely flower bouquet.

"Thank you so much."

Choji rubbed his belly grinning "You must be starving! Want to head somewhere for food?"

"Choji why is it always food with you." Kiba facepalmed shaking his head.

The chatting voices in the background went muffled.

The mid-afternoon sky is a beautiful canvas graced with sky blues and pure milky whites. The blue in the depths beyond and the smooth, rounded, sugary sweet clouds in the foreground.

The air was pleasant and warm, but a fresh breeze kept it from being uncomfortably hot.

I could hear the sound of children laughing and playing, they were probably going to the park.

Feeling the warmth, I closed my eyes and take a deep breath.

Everything happens for a reason.

Maybe.

Just maybe.

That mission

that imprisonment

Happened to make me acknowledge what I was overlooking.

I look at the group with a faint smile on my face.

I was never alone...

I always felt like I had no friends and no support.

I never knew who I could talk to or what I could do to get myself out of the depressed state I was in.

For a while, I thought that was how I was going to live forever and that was how life was meant to be.

I never went out of my way to get help or pull myself out of the situation I was in.

For a long time, I never felt like I could tell anyone how I felt. I bottled up my feelings which caused me to drown in my emotions. I never knew how to deal with them.

But than

Sasuke showed up.

I started opening up to him around me and told him what I was going through, I slowly started getting mentally healthy.

When I finally decided that I wanted to change my life for the better, I started taking better care of myself and got rid of all of the negative people in my life.

Once I did this, I started feeling more energized and like myself.

I look at sasuke with a bright smile
"Thank you sasuke..for everything."

"Welcome home, (y/n)."

"Firstly Let's head to the Hokage office-'

"Sasuke kun! I'm so glad you have returned safely"
