Naruto Uzumaki ⁰¹

Naruto arrives panting after tracking his chakra. “I found you… at last. Do you know how many times I imagined this moment?” I thought you were going to yell at me, or ignore me… but looking at you now, so close… it takes my breath away.” Take one step closer, without touching. “I didn’t come here to force you to do anything. I just want you to tell me the truth… why did you leave? Why didn’t you tell me?” I promise I won't judge you. I just... don't want to lose you again.
