Just a spur of the moment fic. I like reading fics where Sasuke and Sakura are already together, so I wanted to write one. This takes place after Sasuke's redemption trip. Ages: 19-20 ish haha.

Their apartment is not big, but it isn't small either. It is the perfect size for two people. But, honestly, more often then not, there is only one person in the house. Sakura is busy performing medical missions and taking shifts at the hospital, while Sasuke seems to be on a never ending array of missions. But, today is a rare day; one where neither has a mission to complete or a life to save.
Sasuke wakes up first and stares at the sleeping form of his girlfriend. She has matured so much. Her hair is mid-way down her back and is parted to the side instead of the middle. The silhouette of her hair may be tamed, but the color is not. It is bright and bubbly and fun, but also exotic and enchanting. Her hair is the shade of bubblegum, it is so bright, in fact, that sometimes he expects it to be sticky, like gum, when he touches it. But it isn't; it is still soft and silky. She is physically very attractive, but she is also beautiful on the inside. Sometimes, he can't help but wonder why she loves him.
He pulls her closer to him as she begins to wake up.
"Good morning, Sasuke," she whispers sleepily.
"Good morning."
She smiles at him and says, "We should probably get up," while she starts to stand up.
She feels a tug on her wrist before she finds herself on top of Sasuke.
Blushing madly, she questions, "Sasuke, what are you doing?"
"Let's stay in bed a little longer," he tells her, "I feel like I haven't seen you in days."
"Okay," she says with a pretty smile.
They lay in bed, talking-well Sakura doing most of it while Sasuke listens and interjects occasionally- about missions and work and unimportant, light topics.
He watches how her eyes brighten when she talks about her studies and how her eyes fade to a dark shade of green when she talks about a recent patient that doesn't have a good chance of survival. He loves that he can always tell how she feels through her eyes.
His favorite days are ones with simple moments like this where the only things that exist are her and their new life together.

This is a very short Drabble. I'm trying to get back into the swing of writing, so I'm sorry if it is choppy or awkward :( thanks for reading, please leave a review! Thank you!
