It was a sunny day, even though the weather was nowhere as hot as it seemed. The trees were deep green, and the dirt looked damp. The feeling of the soft breeze on his skin made him shiver, and he didn’t like it. He preferred the hot weather, the heat and the vitamin D of the sun going through his pores. All bright colors, they reminded him of her.
Sasuke took a sip of his tea, his other hand was safely in his pocket and his gaze was lost in front of him.
He never thought he would be needing to think about his life so soon, to ponder about his decisions and his future. He had just begun college, and he loved his career; since he was a child, he always loved to read and write, so studying Literature and Creative Writing had always been his dream. He was sure about that part of his life; however, his personal issues were something else.
“Sorry I’m late!” A soft voice called.
He turned to greet her. The pink strands of her hair waved as she walked, and her bright green eyes were focused on him. She was wearing a red cotton dress, black tights and coat, and Timberland boots.
Sakura Haruno had always been oh so beautiful.
“It’s fine,” he assured her. “You’re here now.”
She sat beside him and grabbed the edge of her dress softly, her knees pressing together just the way they did when she was nervous. She kept her lips pressed in a thin line for a while, both of them just hearing the people around and soft barks away from their spot. She sighed twice before she spoke.
“Do you… really like me?”
She’d always been so bold with him. Sasuke stayed silent and then closed his eyes. “Yes.”
“Why didn’t you say it before?” She switched her gaze from his face to his lap.
“I didn’t think that was what you wanted.” He kept his voice calm, but he was terrified.
He pushed his glasses back on his face with his free hand and the moment it went back to his pocket, a soft hand with trembling fingers held it tightly. It wasn’t the first time they held hands, but it was definitely the first time they did it as something more.
“I like you too, Sasuke.”
When he turned his head to watch her, all the guilty thoughts disappeared from his mind. Her pink cheeks, her plump lips and those freckles across her face were worth the disaster they had to go through.
He smiled at her, and they both knew where they belonged.
