Only For Myself

Chapter 7

I wake up and realize it's already around 7:30 in the morning. But since I'm not taking the Chunin Exams I might as well take a walk.

"Hey Irika, what are you doing here, the Chunin Exams are about to start" Naruto shouted. I walked right past him and start towards my house to have a proper breakfast.

"Hello, babe, what's wrong" he said.

"Don't ever call me that again, we're over Naruto, never talk to me again, you know what, just get out of my life" I told him.

His eyes softened. Those same eyes. Those are the eyes that Gaara had. Sadness. But why wasn't I sad like I was when Gaara gave me that look? Oh well.

I went home to see that Sauske had already left, so I decided to clean the house. I started with his room. Big mistake.

I found scrolls everywhere and mainly clothes but it was really disgusting. It smelled like a dead corpse. I just left the room because I couldn't take the stench. While I'm downstairs I might as well fix myself some breakfast.

I hear a knock at the door.

I open it and it was Temari and Kankuro. I slam the door shut.

They knock again.

"Go away" I yelled.

"We just wanna talk, it's about Gaara" the said.

"I don't care, go the hell away" I yelled.

"Please, just let us in" the pleaded.

"Look, I'm not in the mood to bring up this subject so cam you please just go away" I yelled.

I have to many scars. I can't let my wall down now.

After I ate, I went for a little walk. I saw Gaara on a bench and I did my best to avoid him.

"Irika" I yelled.

I just walk away.

I felt him grab my arm.

"Why are you still avoiding me, I did nothing wrong" he said.

You broke my heart.

"You broke my heart and your promise to me Gaara" I said softly.

I looked down at the ground trying to hold back me tears.

"I'm sorry Irika" he said.

"Sorry isn't gonna fix the pain you cause me" I yelled.

"Why do you care so much, it's not like we were dating, I mean, we were just kids he said.

We weren't even dating!?! Just kids?!?!

And to think. I loved him. I guess it's true. Love is an illusion that leaves you heart broken.

"Let go of me" I said.

"But I---"

"I said let go of me!" I yelled.

"Why do you treat me like some kind of monster, what did I do to you" he yelled.

"You wanna know what you did, you made think that I loved you then you broke my heart, all you do is hurt everything in your path, you have no idea what it's like to be hurt" I yelled with tears welled up in my eyes.
