Izuna's vow to Tobirama:

Tobirama Senju.

Your eyes when we met where the most intense eyes I've ever seen in my life.

I will never forget how intimidating you were, yet how calm, how SAFE.

I remember I saw through your hard, polished outside, and one of my first thoughts were that you were someone who would do anything for someone you loved.

But Tobirama, my love, you took that interpretation I had and made it skyrocket to the stars.

Never in my life could I have imagined all the things you would go through just to keep me alive.

I am grateful to you.

Not only for showing me how capable I am of being loved.

For making me breakfast in bed on weekends.

For taking me out on fantastic dates.

For surprising me with trips.

But for my life.

You saved my life.

And I like to think that in a way, I saved your life, too.

And that's what we are to each other.

You save me, and I save you.

I am so immensely proud of all you have done in your life, of how you wake up every morning and se the GOOD in people and in that particular day, of how you don't look back on what happened to you with remorse, but as a gateway to me.

I see it.

I see the way you look at me.

As if you can't believe I'm real.

But I am real, and I will always be real.

I cannot imagine a life where you are not by my side, and now, as I vow myself to you forever, I don't have to.

Tobirama Senju, I promise to always respect and protect you.

To always love and cherish you.

To never take you for granted, to give you the life you deserve.

I promise to never hold grudges against you, but to always talk, to build a skyscraper together with a stable foundation, and then build bridges surrounding it to take us to all sorts of fantastic places.

I promise you that I don't need anything expensive, any gifts, any surprises.

If I wake up in our bed in our tiny apartment every day for the rest of our lives, I wouldn't desire anything else. As you are all I desire.

You have all of my heart in all of yours.

It's the safest it has ever been.

I love you.

Izuna, xxx
