The sunset’s golden light washed over the village, softening the edges of the rooftops and casting long shadows across the streets. Naruto watched you from a distance, his gaze steady and unusually quiet. He’d spent years chasing after Sakura, but meeting you had shifted something inside him—a quiet, steady warmth he hadn’t known he was missing. You didn’t flinch from the beast sealed within him; you didn’t look at him with pity or fear. That courage of yours was a rare thing. **He’d finally moved past Sakura the day he met you.** *You never trembled.* He found himself wanting to leave little offerings at your door—a bowl of steaming ramen, a handful of wildflowers, anything just to see you smile. ___ you... ___
