Chapter 1

A breezy afternoon a young blonde guy sat upon a bench in front of the well known Ramen shop, Ichiraku. He was waiting for his favourite Miso Ramen to be prepared.

"Hmm still good as always..." Naruto thought. He wondered where Nabiki would be. She was never late for Ramen. "She must have been caught up in something." Then his miso was put in front of him.

He breathed in deeply and enjoyed the aroma of miso ramen. "Ahhh...it smells absolutely wonderful. Oh well, idaktekimasu." And with that he dug in.

Meanwhile in the other part of town.

It seems Sakura finally got her wish to wine and dine with Sasuke. The dinner was held at his place. Sakura was on her way towards the Uchiha residence. After so many years of asking he finally said yes. And there she was on her way towards his place for a quiet romantic dinner without any interruptions. Sakura was wearing her nicest dress she could find. It was a strapless black one. It definitely hugged her curves. She had this all thought out. First when she arrived she would have small talk with him, perhaps a few laughs, then during dinner they would chat and afterwards they would go for a moonlight walk. And she would ask him to walk her home. And then when they were standing in front of her home she would look into his dark eyes and slowly move towards him and then brush her lips against his.

Sigh, if it were only to happen as well. Sakura thought.

After a few minutes walk she finally arrived at his place. She knocked on his door. She heard something move from inside and then the door opened. Revealing Sasuke in the dooropening wearing black pants and a blouse. He moved aside to let her in, he guided her towards the dining room where the food was all set up. She first sat down at the seat he apointed her. Then he moved towards his seat across from her. It stayed ackwardly silent for a few minutes. When they both spoke at the same time.

"How have you been?" Sasuke asked. "How was your last mission?" Sakura asked.

They both blushed and said "You first." They blushed again.

"How was your mission?" Sakura asked. "It was ok. Mostly the same as u know." Sasuke responded in his monotome voice.

Sasuke still has the same coldness in his voice as usual. I guess i can forget about the small talk. thought Sakura.

She started to play around with her food.

Sasuke noticed this...

"I know I'm not the best kind of cook in the world, but is it really that bad?" Sasuke asked. "Huh, what? Noo! It's good it's just I'm not that hungry. I'm sorry." Sakura offered. "It's ok if you don't want to eat. I'm not that hungry myself either. How about we go and talk a walk?" he asked. "That sounds great Sasuke-kun."

The both stood up and walked towards his door.

Ok you're an Uchiha, you've fast worse dangerous situations than this. Compared to what you do on mission this is a piece of cake. Right? You can do it. Just tell her how you feel. Tell her and it would be over in a few seconds. It's easy. Ok...breath easy. You can do it. He guided Sakura to a nearby park and sat down with her on a bench. He turned towards her. He took in her beauty.

"Sakura, there's something i want to tell you."

TBC...
