First Impressions

In a flash, everything around her meant absolutely nothing. Where she was, who she was with, and what she was supposed to be doing. All she could do was stare at the adorable boy across the room at. She tugged on Ino's sleeve timidly, not letting herself look away from him. "H-hey Ino-chan? Who's that?" Her friend looked at her like she was an idiot, which of course made her fell as though she was an idiot and blush.

"What're you talking about Sakura-chan? That's Uchiha Sasuke! Don't tell me you don't know who he is!" She said, looking down on pink haired girl.

"I've heard of him I just had never… seen him… before." She said growing quieter with every word she spoke until it was reduced to mumbling. He was coming toward them, and she had no idea what to say. Her heart started to beat fast and it felt as though it was in her throat. She clung to Ino's arm and looked down, trying to save herself from embarrassment, blushing the whole time. Ino however, was absolutely thrilled that he was coming their way, and seemed determined to strike a conversation with him. She began to wave violently, and Sakura was a little worried that she'd accidentally hit her on the head.

"Hi Sasuke-kun! You remember me? I'm Yamanaka Ino, you saw me last at my family's flower shop!" Sakura was always amazed at how confident Ino was when she talked. She doubted that she could ever be like that, talking to someone like Sasuke so casually. She was just as amazed however to Sasuke's apathetic response.

"Mm. Yeah, I remember." The hiding pink haired girl could tell that he was about to leave when her friend perked up again.

"Have you met my friend here? Her name's Haruno Sakura. You may not know her, since she's not from ninja family or anything. C'mon Sakura! Don't be rude, say hello!" The blond girl then pulled her arm out of the Sakura's grip and pushed her a little forward so that she was out in the open.

"Ah! Um…" She stammered, panicking a little. Her toungue seemed like it was made of rubber, and suddenly the ground become incredibly interestting, or at the very least she couldn't keep her eyes off of it. "H-hello. I'm Haruno Sakura. It's nice to meet you…"

"Uchiha Sasuke. Nice to know that the grass is more interesting than I am." He said plainly, although Sakura thought she heard a bit of annoyance in his tone.

Her head shot up and she blushed, although she was still unable to look him in the face. "I-I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to… I… I…" She was beginning to sound as if she might cry, but when she heard him sigh she meekly peered up at his face, and looked him in the eyes for the first time.

"It's fine." He said in an exasperated tone, not really trying to cheer her up. "Just remember that you only get one first impression." With that statement, he left the two girls, one in a fit of giggles and storm of words, and the other silently watching him walk away, hoping above all else that she would talk to him again.

Sakura's first impression: "He's so cool… Wow…"

Sasuke's first impression: "She seems a bit annoying, but not as much as her friend. I guess she's okay."

Several years, missions, tears, and hugs later, Sakura recalled this incident while with Sasuke on a date.

"Hey… Sasuke-kun?" She asked, peering up at him while clinging to his arm.

"Nn?" He grunted, as apathetic sounding as ever.

"You remember when we first met right? You said something about first impressions… well what was you're first impression of me?" She asked, trying to sound like she didn't care so that he wouldn't know how much she wanted to know.

"What's it matter? It was dead-on anyway." She said, taunting her.

"Oh come on Sasuke-kun! I want to know! Tell me!" She pleaded, tugging on his arm as he was leading her down the streets of Konoha. The cool boy she always dreamed about and the annoying girl who stood out in his mind.
