"Our Song"
AU. Sakura asks Sasuke why they didn't have a song.
.

I was riding shotgun
With my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel
On the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says, "Baby is something wrong?"
I say, "Nothing,
I was just thinking
How we don't have a song"
.
.
.
"Sasuke-kun, don't you think it's time that we should have our song?" Sakura asked her boyfriend of 3 months.
But it would really be more like a year if she would count the time they've started to get closer without officially labeling it. Prior to that they have been friends or like quasi-friends who share a group of friends since they were 5.
.
.
She had to ask Sasuke what they were after being confused why the boys in their school were avoiding her. And he promptly answered "Hn. And I thought you were smart."
"Hey! What does that mean?!" she replied, affronted.
"Do I carry your books?" "
Yes, because you're a gentleman and they're heavy."
"Do I wait for you and take you home?"
"Because my house is on the way to your home anyway."
"Do I call you before you sleep at night?"
"Because you have a problem sleeping, right?"
"Do I bring you coffee every morning we have a long exam?"
"Yes, because you have this marvelous coffee machine at your house and I really need the caffeine to keep me up for the actual test."
"Do I pay for the movies or the times we go out to eat?"
"But I offer to split the bill and you refuse. And It's not like you'll be poor because of it."
"Did I give you flowers last Valentine's day?"
"But I also gave you chocolates."
"Did we go to the school dance together?"
"You were only avoiding your fangirls and I was the safest choice."
"Do you see me doing these with other girls?"
"Why, were there other girls?!"
"You're more hopeless than the, dobe."
"Now that's just not fair!"
"Would you say the things I did were things a boyfriend would do for her girlfriend?"
"Uhm...yeah, I guess so."
"You've been my girlfriend the first time I carried your books and took you home. We've had 52 dates. I have held your hand. I went to a dance with you and actually danced. I ate the chocolates you gave me last Valentine's and you know I don't like sweets. I have never given roses to anyone. I've introduced you to my family and I've met your parents. Now, does that answer your question?" Sasuke said, in what was his longest speech as of yet.
"How could I have known that? You could have informed me that I have a boyfriend and not find out about it from other boys who said that I was already in a relationship or perhaps courted me like a normal person would. Do you know how embarrassing that was? But no, you have to do everything your way-"
Sakura was cut off from her rant by Sasuke's lips. Yep, he's really stubborn not that she minded his methods that much. This kiss was actually brilliant.
.
.
"You should really stop hanging with Yamanaka. She puts too many ideas in your head." Sasuke replied.
"But she and Shikamaru just started going out a month ago and they already have a song." She pouted.
Actually the Nara was just too lazy to ask Ino out so Ino who got tired waiting for him was the one who asked him out instead. And he thought it was troublesome to fight Ino about the song.
"Hn."
"It's okay, Sasuke-kun. We don't need a song." Sakura said as she smiled lovingly at her boyfriend and entwined her hands with his.
.
.
.
And he says...
.
Our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date: "Man, I didn't kiss her, when I should have"
And when I got home ... 'fore I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
.
.
.
"Sasuke-kun, you didn't need to copy Taylor Swift's song lyrics."
"Hn."
"I know, I love you too."
