Maybe –SasuSaku

Sakura knew that when he said he wasn't coming back, he meant it. Despite that, she still prayed every day that something, anything, would change his mind so that, maybe, just maybe, he would return home safe and sound. About three or four years later, a great surge of rumors swept across Konoha. Sasuke Uchiha had returned to Konoha. Sakura heard the rumors as she was shopping for groceries at the market stand. Upon hearing this news, she promptly dropped her bag of groceries and took of through the streets of Konoha, thinking desperately, "Maybe, just maybe the rumors are true. Maybe he really has come home. But how much has he changed?" She turned the corner and her crystalline jade eyes were peering into onyx orbs. She began to cry as she recognized the owner of those mesmerizing eyes. "S- Sasuke-kun . . . have you returned for good? Will you stay here by my side?" she pleaded with the boy that was once her teammate and crush. Now, he was just someone who she loved and desired recognition from. Sasuke looked at the girl that was once his childhood crush (well hidden that secret was though), who was now the woman he had been crazy to ever leave. He pulled her into a tight embrace, and murmured the words she had held so close for these long, cold years, into her ear, "Maybe . . . just maybe. . ." She smiled and hugged him in return. They went to the path that led to the village gates, the same path that Sasuke had left her unconscious on a bench, but that was so she wouldn't get into anymore trouble, or anymore danger because of him. He looked at her, peered deep into her jade eyes, and felt himself getting lost I their crystalline depths. He pulled her close once again, but this time, he kissed her lightly on the lips. She looked at him, and asked in a quiet voice, "Sasuke-kun, what made you change your mind? What made you come back?" He looked at the girl, and replied, "You. . ." The girl looked startled at this information. "I . . . made you come back? How?" He smiled as he saw your eyes grow wide with confusion. "You made me come back . . . that's because. . . I love you Sakura Haruno. I always have, and I always will." She was a little shocked, but then reality and happiness crashed over her. 'Oh Sasuke-kun!" she exclaimed. "I take that as an 'I love you too'." She looked up at him, and breathlessly told him, "Sasuke-kun, I love you too. I always have and-" "and always will. . ." Sasuke finished you r sentence. You beam at him and he pulls you close, this time, kissing you passionately on the lips. "Maybe, just maybe love really does exist. Maybe, no, definitely, this love will last." The girl thinks happily.
