~Sasuke s POV~

I don't think Nirana realizes we've been together for just over two months. Though I suppose being in a coma for a week does through off your sense of time. With I sigh, I parked the jeep and got out, going to her side and opening the door for her. "Well, look who's being a gentlemen." She said in a weird happy tone I couldn't really place.

Once we were in and had our seats things just became to...quiet for my liking. "So, what's the reason for taking me to dinner?" She asked, taking a sip of her soda. 'She did not seriously just ask me that..' I sighed and said, "Well, it's our two month anniversary. I figured we should do something special." She laughed...wait..why would she laugh at that? "Funny, I would have never pegged you to be a cheesy romantic." She said with another giggle.

I felt my face heat up. "I am NOT a cheesy romantic, I just felt like doing something special." I said, stirring my soda with the straw. "Haha, ok sugar, if you say so." And with that the waitress showed up. "Alright, so what can I get you kids?" She said. Nirana glared at the waitress a bit and said, "We're not 'kids', we're 16. Now, i'd like to get an order of cheese fries to share," She turned to me, "If that's alright with you." I nodded and the poor now frightened waitress left to fill our order.

"Must you scare every person you meet?" "Yes, it instills the healthy fear that if you screw with me, I mess up your anatomy. And I haven't scared everyone I've met. I don't scare you, do I?" She tilted her head a little as she said the last part. "Nira, if you scared me, we wouldn't be together. I know your level of strength and because of it I have a higher respect of your boundaries." She smiled and said "Good. Because if you didn't, there would be serious problems."

Sometimes I question my attraction to her...But then, there are so many moments that make it clear.

~Nirana's POV~

As we sat there waiting for our food, I began to listen to the music they had playing. The story, by Brandi Carlile began to play, and I started to hum to the intro. "Whatchya humming?" Sasuke asked. I simply pointed to one of the speakers and began to faintly sing with it. "All of these lines across my face, tell you the story of who I am. So many stories of where I've been, and how I got to where I am."

~Sasuke's POV~

I laid my head on the table as I listened to her sing. This, is what I mean. A moment that makes me realize why I love her. When the song, and her singing, finished, I raise my head and smiled at her. "I love you." I said, reaching my arm over the table and taking hold of her hand. "I-I love you too."

The rest of dinner we talked about this and that, changing subjects like it was nothing. We went from game consuls to countries we wanted to visit, and then on to exotic foods. Speaking of, we're now having a mini argument over who's paying. "Please Sasuke, let me do it. You paid for the bowling." "Ah, yes, but I have my wallet. Do you?" At this she pouted and muttered, 'fine.' So I paid for dinner and we left. Not much more to it except taking her home.

~Nirana's POV~

The ride home was filled with a bunch of small talk, just as dinner was. I'm not normally one for small talk, but with Sasuke..i guess I just tolerate it better with him. I sighed and smiled, closing my eyes as I felt the movement of the jeep stop and the engine cut off. I got out and he met me at the door of the house.

"I love you." I said, kissing him on the cheek. He smiled a bit but said, "Oh come on now, that's no goodnight kiss." Saying this, he press his lips to mine. We stayed like this for a few moments before breaking the kiss. "All better now?" I said, teasing him. "Why yes, actually." He said, holding me a bit before kissing me again and walking back to his jeep. "I love you, hun."

When I got in the house, I stopped and looked out the living room window and watched as his disappeared in his navy blue jeep. "I love you." I said in a whisper, turning away and going to my room to get ready for bed.
