If I Never Knew You
Chapter 2: I Never Thought That I Could Love Anyone
By: MysticFireBlood
Naruto waited a half an hour for Sasuke to pop up, "Oi, Naruto, sorry I am late, but a black cat crossed my path and…"
"Liar," Naruto cut in.
"Excuse me?" questioned Sasuke.
"You are as bad as Kakashi-sensei, no…worse. Now tell me the real reason you are late before I chop your head off!" exclaimed Naruto, armed with his sword.
"Calm down Naruto. Okay, okay, I was late because I was thinking about this date and if it was the right thing or not. I was actually going to call you and call it off, but the Sakura convinced me to go, and so I came."
"Why did you think it was a bad idea?"
"I don't know. I guess because you are Hokage now, I thought that somehow things would be different, especially with you."
"Because I am Hokage, doesn't mean I am different. I am still the village's number one knuckleheaded ninja. Nothing has changed just my rank and responsibilities. I promise I am still the same person you always knew."
"No, Naruto, you are the Hokage, the leader of the village. You are brave, sweet, and in charge. You are different, Naruto. You are better than me, and that scares me."
"Don't be silly, Sasuke. I always thought that you were better than me."
"No, I'm not…," continued Sasuke, before being cut off by a kiss.
"You are the best ninja. End of decision."
"Hmm, I am for once shocked and amazed, Uzumaki Naruto."
"How is that Uchiha Sasuke?"
"I didn't think you would kiss me like that."
"Want another one?"
"Aren't we supposed to be out on a date?"
"Doesn't answer my question; but to answer yours, yes."
"So, why are we still here?"
"Because we are, now do you want another kiss or not."
"Yes, please," and then Naruto kissed him again.
They continued their date at the steakhouse, and then went to Sasuke's house for a night cap, and well, I think you can figure it out from there. When they awoke the next morning, both men where smiling, finally having what they wanted, to awake in each other's arms.
