Summary
It's funny. He'd accepted a long time ago that Sasuke and Sakura would end up together. It had hurt, but he took it in stride and moved on, because all he really wanted was to see Sakura happy. Then he'd had to grapple with it all over again when the war was over, and he was lying in the hospital missing an arm happier than he'd ever been and struck with the realization of what that really meant. That one might've stung more, if only because he couldn't believe he'd been too stupid to realize it sooner. He was right, in the end, but he'd also never imagined he would end up wedged in the middle of it like some secret game of tug-of-war neither of them know they're playing.
Sakura is probably the world's worst girlfriend. Sasuke isn't running from love, for once, and it's ruining his life. Naruto would just like to know how he ended up in this situation.
