Something is wrong with the sum of us That I can’t seem to erase
— “Naruto was crying today. I found him hunched over in the living room, in the dark, stifling his tears. When I asked him what was wrong, he wouldn’t say anything to me except ‘you wouldn’t understand,’ and then he asked to be left alone. “I’m scared for him.”
*** I’ve mostly been wanting to sketch, recently. So I just took the first thought that came to me from the song I was listening to–'Could I Be You’ by Matchbox 20–and ran with it. In this picture Naruto is terrified of himself, and the overwhelming things he’s been feeling for a certain friend. *cough* Sasuke *cough*
Anyway, he knows that whatever he chooses to do, whether he ignores or indulges these feelings, will devastate him in one way or another. He can’t win.
