She tore open the door and threw herself in the arms of-

"Daddy!"

I stood there in complete shock, watching the old blonde stroke his daughter's hair and smile.

"I thought I'd find you engrossed in your laptop."

"You didn't tell me you'd come!" A sweet smile brightened her features, one that I've never seen before. It was so...pure... like...

"Hello Sasuke. How are you?" I shook his extended hand solemnly, muttered a polite reply and tried my best to not look at Kushina.

"Naruto is not here?" He looked between the two of us with hidden suspicion.

"No, uh..there's-"

"Sasuke and I are dating." Did she just do that! She did not!

Minato raised a brow. "You can tell me all about it when I show you all the things I got." He gently pulled her inside, while she mouthed 'I'll call you!' before closing the door.

"Bye Uzumaki..." A feeling of uncertainty overwhelmed me. Does this mean my father is-

I checked my phone. One missed call from-

Father.

Oh no.

Sasu! You awake!
No, I'm actually sleep-texting.
Naruto was right. You've got to stop hanging around me.

"Why'd you call?"

"I missed you."

"Excuse me? Invalid answer."

"So...dads..."

"I know right! Daddy got me all sorts of weird and exotic things and I want you to see them all and this nice dress that's very nature-y and are you listening?"

"Every word." I could imagine the slight redness of her cheeks, as I put both my hands behind my head (headphones) and relaxed on the pillow.

"You're-"

"I love you too." She was silent for a few moments but that didn't put me off, because I knew she was smiling (though she'd never admit it).

"Where are you taking me tomorrow?"

"Oh, I never knew I was."

"Uchiha."

"Uzumaki."

"Don't make me do it."

"Hn."

"I'm going to tell daddy exactly what you do when we're alone."

"..."

"He was not okay with this by the way."

"It's...natural..."

"I foresee many days of grounding because you're a sissy who can't break a rule so I have to be a man and do it myself."

"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear anything. Just dress casual."

"How's your dad?"

"He wants to meet you."

"Say what now? I already did."

"I didn't mention your name."

"And why not?"

"Because you had the audacity to blurt everything to your father."

"How dare you accuse me of such debauchery! You should've been

prepared."

"Hn."

"Goodnight."

"No wait-" I stared at the disconnected call for a few seconds. Did I really just... this didn't make any sense, she would've insulted me a billion times.

Teme! Wassup!

What's wrong with Kushina?

Must you mention her every time we talk?

She's acting weird.

The crazy lessened right? That always happens when tou-san comes, and I don't think she notices.

I made her upset, and don't know how.

Come on man! Don't give up!

I wasn't going to idiot.

Btw, Sakura wants the four of us to go on a double date.

Goodnight Naruto.

Kushina glanced at the clock. 8:30. She cursed to herself and mentally refused to get up. Turning away from the offending thing, her eyes widened when she saw a few bags on top of her bed.

"How the hell didn't I knock these over?" Her mom use to always tell her she's always in a swimming competition in her head. Kushina poked her bat a few times on the bags then slowly pulled it towards her.

One was full of different bath salts and scented candles; Kushina never smelt anything so amazing. She opened the next which had potpourri covering a long rectangular box.

"This is totally going to be something

fancy." She muttered, placing it gently between the potpourri with the notion to open it later.

The final bag contained an orange rose, a note and a few chocolates.

I hope all of this will make you feel better, the bath salts was indirectly for me since I love it when you smell 'fresh out of the shower' , though you always smell nice. Anyways, I know you didn't open the box, so you're going to wait until I come and see your reaction. Eat light (don't ask) and I'll see you at nine.
-Sasuke.

"Idiot..." A smile nevertheless was plastered on her face, followed by a frown."I'm becoming softer! Damn you Uchiha!" She yelled exasperated.

"For what?"

"Oh my shit!" Kushina glared when Sasuke came through the window, an eyebrow raised at her random outburst.

"You jerk."

He coughed in his fist, pointing at the bags around her.

"Hmph." She folded her arms and turned around. "What are you doing here?"

"Our date..."

"I never agreed."

"You told me!"

"You have no proof."

"Uzumaki.."

"Wha-" He held both her wrists above her head and leaned down, smirking when she looked startlingly gorgeous.

"What's wrong Kushina hm?"

"A turd thinks he can harass me in my own home." She gasped when his lips pressed against her neck, slowly trailing kisses down. "Sasuke..."

"Shhh." She gave out a soft moan as his kisses became more demanding, as Sasuke smirked against her.

"Open your gift."

"Aha." She punched his shoulder when he got off. "You were playing me all this time!"

"I'm not the only one whose extremely sensitive." Kushina rolled her eyes and pulled out the rectangular box and it's lid and stared down, blinking dumbly for a few seconds.

"Uchiha?" She gently pulled out a necklace with a pendant of the Uchiha clan symbol, and looked up at a slightly flustered Sasuke.

"I, uh didn't think you'd like it..."

"Put it on for me." He gulped when she held up all her hair, and delicately put it on, his fingers lingering for a bit on her skin.

"Now get out!"

"Huh! Why!"

"Like hell am I changing in front of you. We're close, but not THAT close." Kushina scowled and motioned for him to leave. He pulled her chin up and kissed her forehead before closing the door.

Ugh. Uchihas.

"Why must I be blindfolded?"

"You've been complaining since I put it on Uzumaki."

"Because I don't trust you." She screamed when he purposely tripped her and caught her before she hit the floor. "Sasuke you fucking moron!"

Kushina angrily pulled off the blindfold and held her fist ready before he turned her around and-

"Oh my god I love amusement parks!" She gushed, running inside.

"Wait up!"

Sasuke was pulled along to so many heart stopping rides by an excited redhead, and felt his insides unsettled as he stopped her from going on a rollercoaster again.

"Can we please do the stands?" Her eyes were so big and pleading and her lips jutted out.

"One more time, please Sasuke-kun?" She smiled evilly when he scooped her up and ran to the line like he'd die if he didn't. Muahahahahahah.

The Uchiha had to sit down for a few minutes to calm himself. He ignored the redhead impatiently tapping her foot on the concrete.

"Are you done you big baby?"

"I'm never doing this again."

"Ok whatever!" Psh, he thinks he's immune to me.

He aimed well before throwing a ball, precisely hitting the centre and making the bottles topple over. The stand owner grumbled and passed him a stuffed monkey, who he gave to his girlfriend.

"Yay! More!" She chanted like a child as they moved on to the next stand, which was the strength one where you had to get a nice score.

"Here." He gave her the mallet after paying for a round.

"Smart move." The owner cackled.

"Excuse you." Kushina glared menacingly.

"No offence girl, but you aren't very um, meaty. "

She slammed the mallet down with dark eyes; the metal ball soared up the pole until it broke the upper barrier and landed a few feet away. The owner stood stunned, his whole body shaking with fear as Kushina handed him back the mallet and pointed at a huge bear in a Santa costume. Seeing as the man wouldn't move for a while Sasuke snatched the bear and followed her to the next.

"I'm going to breed them, and they'll make benkeys or moars."

"Yeah, I'm not going to watch that."

"Thank you Sasuke."

"For what?"

"You're not as bad as I thought..." she smiled to herself.

"Was I ever?" He chuckled.

"No, you were worse you bastard!"

He pecked her lips. "You're mine Uzumaki. Remember that."

Sasuke is totally out of his mind.

"I hate you."

"And I love you."
