"(Y/n), we need to talk."
It was those dreaded words no one ever wants to hear, especially when they're in a relationship. They're the kind of words that spell trouble, that something terrible is about the happen. They're the words you hear when you're about to be broken up with.
The air was tense between the two as the blue haired kunochi stood in your room just across from you. You'd been polishing some kunai, but the words she'd spoke caused you to stop abruptly. You turned your head to gaze at your girlfriend, seeing her honey colored pools dripping with emotion. Your chest tightened at the sight, and you knew full-well what was to come. Her lips parted as she took a sharp intake of breath before speaking. "(Y/n), I know you love me, but I'm sick of lying when I say it back," she admitted.
It didn't come as much of a surprise to you. You'd been expecting this since you'd confessed to her, and she'd said she'd loved you as well. You'd known all this time she'd been simply staying in order to try to give you some form of happiness which she knew she couldn't fulfill in providing you for all her life. You knew she'd been trying to ease the pain that'd eventually come, for she was a girl who couldn't stand to see others in pain. Yet here she was now as she finally confessed to you her true feelings and although you'd been expecting this for some time, you still felt your heart breaking into a million pieces. You cleared your throat as you asked, "Is it because I'm not him ?"
She hesitated before nodding . You both knew exactly who you meant. It was no secret of her true feelings, and you felt no ill will towards her for harboring them. It wasn't her fault that her heart called out for him. It was destiny, and you both knew this. Her feelings hadn't changed even after all that had occured. She could never love someone as she had loved him. He'd been her one and only, her solemate. Unfortunately, his life had been cut short and the seasons had rolled on by as time went on without him. After you'd waited for years thereafter, you'd hoped you'd finally have a chance, but you'd been a fool. You'd been so in love with her regardless of her unrequited love that you'd blinded yourself to the truth in hopes it would fade away like memories often did. Now as she stood before you, you found that none of this was true. She'd never ceased in loving him, and she'd never loved you regardless of all the times she'd said it. It had all been a lie.
Although you didn't hate her for her feelings, you felt an intense anger for her willingness to lie to you and lead you on. You closed your eyes, anger bubbling in the pit of your stomach. You wanted so badly to fling a kunai at her, but you knew the consequences weren't worth it. You instead, grasped the kunai and slammed it into the oak table. Your eyes fluttered open to glare at the female who avoided your gaze and fixated hers upon the floor. "Konan, he's gone. You need to get over him," you said harshly as you allowed your emotions to take over.
"No he isn't! He's still here, he walks these halls just like you do," she protested.
"No he doesn't. You, and I both know that walking corpse is not Yahiko."
She flinched. Although your words rang truth, she couldn't accept them. That was Yahiko, the man she loved and yearned for. He was in their somewhere, he had to be. Even if he now possessed the Rinnegan, even if Nagato was controlling him and calling himself Pein, Yahiko had to be in their somewhere. Her golden orbs turned cold as she stared at your seated figure, emotions swirling inside her. Although she claimed to feel no sort of romantic emotions towards you, it still pained her to break it off. Maybe it was just seeing the pain you were going through, or maybe it was something more, something real , she didn't know. "He is alive, I know it!" she argued in complete denial.
"You're wasting your time, Konan."
"No, you're wasting yours. Save your breath and drop it. It's over between us, there is nothing left to say. I'll take my leave now."
With that, she stormed out of your room in a whirl of paper leaving a cool breeze in her wake, and your door wide open. You closed your eyes, pinching the bridge of your nose before standing up and going to close it. As you pulled it shut, locking it, you leaned against the door for support. It was over. The only person you'd ever loved had walked out of your life so casually after lying to you all this time. As you stood there registering exactly what had just happened, only then did the tears begin to fall at the overwhelming sense of loss. Your only star, heaven's angel had walked away from you and instead had returned to the man she praised as God.
