He's been staring at her from across the table for how many minutes now. And even though Sakura was already feeling self-conscious, tightening her grasp on the book she's reading, and biting her lip again and again, Sasuke's eyes never left her face as if he was scrutinizing every bit of it.

She couldn't help but mutter, "S-sasuke-kun, you're staring."

"Am I not allowed to stare at my girlfriend?"

"Eh?" Sakura's hardbound book landed on the table with a thud, calling the attention of the librarian who then shot a glare at them. "T-that's not what I—!"

He continued to stare at her, eyes fixated on a single part. "If I'd like to take your lips right now, would you let me?"
