He's very relaxed. His lips are curved up slightly in a half smile, his eyes are light, and his head is clear. It doesn't happen often. Sasukes thoughts are often like raging storms and tornadoes inside his head; he has no filter for them, he just endures it.
But now his thoughts are placid. Hinata's light snores reach his ears and he can't even be annoyed.
Nothing about her annoyed him, really.
And just for a moment, he feels really annoyed at his own sappy patheticness and sort of shakes his head from shame.
He decides that at some point today, he will tell her how he really feels. How he doesn't want to be just friends with her-how he can't be just friends with her. He has to make her understand that he's never been this way with someone before. Sure he's had plenty of girlfriends before Hinata, but none as perfect as her. None as good. None as smart. None as beautiful. None of them were Hinata.
He drives passed another city, the buildings catch fire against the rising the sun, illuminating a path ahead of him.
He's sure now; he and Hinata have a bright future ahead of them.
