And the last one. Now I can let this go finally, although if Smiter or someone else wants to do something like this again I'm game. I'll even try to write faster. Really, 26 100-word drabbles took me 8 months or so? Oi.
U is for Underneath.
Better late than never.
Ten months, three weeks, five days.
When Naruto left on his three-year trip, Sakura felt more anxiety and loneliness than she thought she would. For a long time, she didn’t understand.
Realization hit her one day – she missed Naruto, yearned to see his determined blue eyes, missed his energy, longed for… him.
Underneath that orange jumpsuit, past the loud declarations was someone worth knowing. Why didn’t she see it sooner? Sighing, Sakura got ready for bed.
Soon... soon, he’d be back. Sakura could set things straight between them. Mentally, she checked off another day.
Ten months, three weeks, four days.
This actually follows 'S is for Smile.' I might go back and edit that one slightly, it went darker than I intended when I first wrote it.

lol nice.
I like Sasuke's "sensitive words of encouragement" lol.
Even as Naruto's best man he can still be a bastard

Well, it's Sasuke. He just wouldn't be the same if he didn't have SOME bastardness in him.

Even though it took me forever, I had a lot of fun doing this. I'll almost miss this thread....
