I love you
SakuX AU-ish
"What are you doing here?"
Sakura looked up at the familiar face and smiled. "Hey."
He sighed and approached the girl slowly, the blanket in his hands almost touching the ground as he made his way. "You know that you shouldn't be up this late... and what happened to your clothes?"
Sakura laughed and shook her head as he wrapped the thick blanket around her barely dressed self. "I couldn't sleep and I wanted to take a dip in the pond."
"As much as I like the idea of you skinny dipping, please don't forget that hypothermia is nothing to laugh about."
She punched him playfully. "It's not even that cold out."
"To you maybe," He sat down beside her and leaned into her side. "I'm freezing my toes here."
She opened the blanket and allowed him to snuggle up beside her. "Then why go out in the first place?"
He bumped his head to hers in a gentle manner. "What kind of husband would leave his wife outside in the freezing cold?"
"A sane one," She laughed and nudged her nose to his cheek.
He caught her lips with his own and glared. "A horrible one." he insisted.
She grinned. "Well I'm glad I married a man who knows how to treat his lady right."
"Damn right you are."
Sakura laughed once more and nudged his side with her elbow. "You dork."
"The dorkiest." He agreed.
She leaned against his frame, bringing the blanket closer to their bodies. "You know mindlessly agreeing to everything I say won't change the fact that you're an idiot."
"Ah, well you know how I threw away the need for common sense when I eloped with a girl with pink hair." He grinned. "Possible pink haired sons are my only worries now."
They laughed at that.
There was a beat of silence. He smiled and wrapped his arms tightly around her smaller frame.
"…You know you could still go back."
He blinked. "Whoa. No, where did that come from?"
She looked up at him, green eyes shimmering with tears. "You still have a family to go back to, a home." She pulled away. "A normal life with a normal family. It's not too late—"
He kissed her.
She kissed back.
He pulled away, resting his forehead on hers, inhaling her scent. "The moment I saw you in that crowded room…"
He stared into her eyes. "The moment you smiled at me and called my name,"
He gripped her hands and pulled her closer. "The moment you saved me from making the worst decision of my life."
She blinked back tears and smiled at him.
He grinned and wiped them away with his thumb. "I knew there was no going back."
He kissed her.
"I love you Sakura Haruno," He whispered against her lips. "And I will never stop loving you."
I'm just cleaning out dozens of untitled word docs with forgotten drabbles.
