SasuSaku. Post 699. It is a quiet love that blooms between them. It is a love shared between trivial conversations, and passing intimacies. It is a love expressed through gentle stares, and timid blushes. It is an unspoken bond, tied up in history, and it is a secret that everybody knows about.

SasuSaku. Three-shot. Sasuke has been brought home after five long years, and as time goes on an evolution begins. Sakura's kind to him, when she finally stops ignoring him, but not overly so, and Sasuke finds that being in her presence is something of a novelty. She's different from what she used to be, and he's indifferent, as always. "Welcome home, Sasuke-kun." "Aa."

She thinks it's impossible to get over something that never was. He thinks there's nothing left. A few years later, Sasuke and Sakura pick up where they left off. Sort of.
