Suicide

Chapter 8

-Naruto's P.O.V-
Sakura's father was sentenced to life in prison for his abuse towards her. "That bastard can rot for all I care" I thought bitterly.

Sakura's funeral was held a few days after her suicide. The whole town showed up, the only thing you could hear was the preacher and people crying. After the preacher finished, her casket was taken to be buried. I let everyone leave and say their final goodbyes before I walked up to her grave.

"Hey Sakura, I hope your in a better place. I know I was a shitty boyfriend but, I really did love you Sakura. Please know that. You deserved better than me, you deserved to be cherished. Loved passionately, but mostly loved and accepted." I said in between sobs, sitting cross legged beside her.

"Naruto?" I turned my head and saw Kiba and Ino walking towards me. Ino looked like a wreck, her makeup was running from crying and looked sickly. She lost weight, since she refused to eat after Sakura's death. Thankfully she had Sai, patiently listening to her and helping her cope.

While Kiba became deathly quiet, his once outgoing self now began unresponsive. Every time he'd look in either mine or Hinata's direction I only saw hate. He no longer smiled, never showing any emotion.

"Hi guys, just thought I'd say my goodbyes to Sakura." Ino gave me a small smile before hugging me. "Will you be okay Naruto? I'm going to take Kiba home" "I'll be home soon, don't worry." Giving me another quick hug they were gone. "Well, guess this is goodbye Sakura, I love you." I could feel the hot tears stinging my eyes, while I stood up and dusted myself off, heading home.

Once home I went straight into my room collapsing on my bed, curling into a ball, having a small mental break down while memories of Sakura ran through my head.

~Flashback~

"Naruto! Get your lazy butt in here! I want you to meet someone!" Hearing Ino screeching at me, I groaned and blindly made my way into the living room. Opening my eyes I was face to face with the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen.

She had shoulder length bubblegum pink hair, which was pulled into a messy bun. She had beautiful emerald green eyes that bore into my soul anytime we'd make eye contact. She was wearing a Bob's Burgers T-shirt and black skinny jeans.

She was stunning, I timidly stuck out my hand introducing myself. "Hey I'm Naruto, Ino's cousin." "Sakura, Ino's told me a lot about you." She chuckled. I could feel my face heat up at the beautiful sound, reminding myself to save that into memory.

~End of flashback~

I wish I could've seen how much I hurt you Sakura, Kiba's right, if I hadn't sleep with Hinata you'd still be alive. I walked into my bathroom and started filling up my bathtub. While I took off all my clothing I began rummaging through my medicine cabinet, inspecting the different pill bottles inside. I opened a few and poured a handful of pills into my hand.

After that I closed the cabinet and stepped into the hot water, bringing the pills to my lips, swallowing them. "See you soon Sakura." I thought while my vision became blurred. I could faintly hear Ino walking in, screaming seeing my lifeless body floating in the bath water.
