The Mangekyou to my Sharingan (Itakashi)

Chapter 28

Pain & Konan

Pain's POV

It's been different for everyone... after Konan and I expressed the sadness we felt losing Itachi, we ended up growing closer than we ever were before and I was truly at peace with that.

And before I knew it December came by in a flash after your death in February.

I truly didn't think Konan and I would get married anymore, most people didn't know this, but I knew you were Konan's "therapist", so I know losing you took a major blow to her mental health.

Honestly, it's all thanks to you that these past couple of months have truly made me feel loved by the woman I have loved since the beginning.

Yet I'm no fool... I know she'll never fully love me the way she loved Yahiko... those two were soulmates, but if she can love me even a little bit I'll be satisfied with that.

Konan: Pain, what are you doing sitting down writing? Our wedding is tomorrow and I'm sure you don't have anything ready

Pain: Sorry my love, I was just writing to Itachi. I want to give these to Kakashi so he can give them to Itachi.

Konan: We saved a seat for him, and his ring will be used as our main decoration thanks to Kakashi... it's okay to be like this, but I love you being like this.

Pain: *blushing* I wish he was here and Konan you've been bold lately

Konan gently kissed the side of my cheek, and I could feel her warmth spread throughout my body

Konan: Both Itachi, Jiraiya, and Yahiko will be there, and it'll be the happiest day of our lives

I know she means well, but sometimes when she mentions Yahiko, it still feels weird... I know he was our best friend, but I don't know.

I feel a bit of jealousy when I shouldn't.

*Wedding day*

Konan's POV

I'm so nervous...

And I don't have any girlfriends to help me

Jeez, I knew I should've tried to befriend the girls in the village.

What am I going to do now?

*Knock Knock*

Huh? If it's Pain I'm going to sla-

Sakura: I figured you could use some girl help

Konan: Sakura...

Sakura: Don't worry I brought backup

As Sakura walked passed me, I noticed Ino, Temari, Tenten, Hinata, and Lady Tsunade walk past me.

I truly felt happy... I feel like I want to cry because I didn't know I had so many friends...

Ino: So, who's walking you down the aisle?

Konan: A-Ah well... I wished it could be Jiraiya-sensei, but well that's impossible so I asked Kakuzu to walk me down since he's basically a grandpa.

This moment right here is a core memory. 

We laughed and enjoyed each other's company, and I was truly at peace. I wanted to remain friends with these girls forever. I'm grateful to have them in my life. 

I wish he was here too...

*4 hours later*

And by the time I knew it.. it was time for me to walk the aisle and marry the future love of my life
