A/N: Hey guys! I'm working on 3 other new fanfics but then I chanced upon this really sweet and cool website that had me saying 'awww' practically the entire time. Check out my profile if you want the link :) Anyway, I was really inspired (is that the right word? Lol..) by some of it so I decided to write it out as a SasuSaku fanfic! BTW, LGMH is Love Gives Me Hope...

Disclaimer: NONE OF THE LGMH belongs to me! And Naruto doesn't belong to me. either.

Chapter 1: 3rd person's point of view.

LGMH: When my sister was younger she came home from school one day and demanded I take her to the library so she could get books on sign language.
I asked why? She told me there was a new kid at school who was deaf and she wanted to befriend him. Today I stood beside her at their wedding watching her sign "I DO". GMH

Summary: When my daughter was younger, she came back from school one day and asked me to get her a book on sign language. When I asked why, she replied that there was a new kid in school who was deaf and she wanted to be friends with him. Now, 16 years later at her wedding, I watched proudly as she signed "I DO".

Chapter 1

Loving Sign


"Mummy! Mummy!"

I looked down, seeing my little Sakura, dressed in a cute pink dress to match her pink hair, tugging on my dress.

"What's wrong princess?" I asked, lifting her up easily.

"Let's get a sign language book!" she exclaimed.

"Whatever for?" I was puzzled, as there was no one in our family who need to use sign language to communicate.

"There's this new boy in my class! He cannot hear...I want to be friends with him!" She said, smiling cutely as she explained.

'He's deaf... poor thing...' I thought silently as I carried my six-year-old daughter to the nearest bookshop.

"Sure sweetheart." I replied as we entered the store.

She spent a few hours studying the book each day for a month.


Finally, at the tender age of eight, she learned the basics for sign language.

The boy she was talking about, Sasuke Uchiha, came over practically everyday to try and help her communicate with him.

In fact, it felt like I suddenly had another child. I had to prepare two lunch boxes everyday due to Sakura's request.

She explained that Sasuke was an orphan so she would give him the extra lunch box.

I would smile, because it was amusing to see her try to sign with Sasuke.

Now, she is 12. She's still in the same class as Sasuke, and they were best friends.

Since Sasuke came over so often, even I learned sign language.

There was always a smile on my Sakura's face, and I'll have to thank Sasuke for that.

Whenever Sakura was upset, Sasuke would be the one consoling her silently.

Although it was expected, it was still good to know that their friendship slowly blossomed into love.

They started dating at age 16.

My Sakura grown to be a beautiful girl. With her unique cherry-blossom coloured hair and her dazzling smile, she was always seen with Sasuke, smiling like there was no tomorrow.

Sasuke grown to be very popular with the girls. But, let's face the facts; the only one he wanted was Sakura.

To me, Sasuke was like the son I never had.

So, it was no surprise that I supported their relationship.

After all, they were a perfect match.


They had their first big fight when they were 20.

He stormed out the house, while she cried uncontrollably.

For a mother like me, the most painful thing to see is your child being hurt.

Emotionally or physically, it hurts.

I gave her a hug as she continued to cry in my arms, making the blouse I wore wet.

It was the first time that they fought so badly.

It was raining heavily that night too.

Sakura felt asleep, exhausted from all the crying at around four in the morning.

In the morning, when she woke up, she headed straight to retrieve her phone, which was left on the table.

The hopeful look on her beautiful features came crashing down when she checked there was no new messages.

Sighing, I grabbed an umbrella, opened the front door ready to get the morning newspaper.

Sitting a little in front of the door was a young man, shivering from the rain as it fell heavily upon him.

He had nothing at all to shelter him from the downpour.

"Sasuke? What are you doing? Get in!" I said, seeing him shiver from the coldness, momentarily forgetting about the newspaper.

No, I'm not going in until Sakura forgives me. He sign.

"SAKURA! HURRY UP AND COME OUT!" I shouted, trying to shield Sasuke from the rain.

"Mum...? What's wro-...S-Sasuke..." She ran up and hugged him.

I'm so sorry... forgive me Sakura. He sign as he held the nearly-soaking girl in his arms.

Come in! I don't want you to be sick! She signed back, as she held his hand and pulled him into the house.

"I'll go get both of you a towel." I said, excusing myself.

Fetching them both a cup of hot chocolate as well, I made my way to the living room, where the couple were.

They were in each other's embrace, not saying, or rather signing a single word.


She was all smiles when she came home.

"What happened dear? You seem so happy." I said as I smiled warmly.

"Mum! Sasuke proposed!" She squealed as she giggled, and showed me her engagement ring, now placed on her left hand, fourth finger.

I chuckled. Sasuke had already discussed with me about his proposal. He had asked me for my daughter's hand in marriage a week ago. Now, he had finally done it.

The wedding took place a month later.

I watched proudly, as my daughter, Sakura Haruno sign the two words.

I DO.
