Sakura cannot believe she is in a coffee shop with a guy who isn't her classmate or friend, well maybe he is her friend but to her, he is more than a friend. Uchiha Sasuke is her major major major crush. To repeat that, her MAJOR crush. He helped her with some duties she had in the campus once then they started hanging out from time to time and she thought that he was really cute. WRONG. He is dead handsome. A God-given angle to be honest. But she isn't the type of girl who would jump into him just to go out with him. She likes it more casual, and secret, she is not sure if her having crush is still a secret but she likes to believe it.

They are studying in this coffee shop near the school library, normal college stuff if you would say, they were really to stay in the school library but Sakura is surprised that he suggested to go to a coffee shop because she knows he doesn't want anyone seeing him with other people, especially girls, rumors travel easily in their campus, also his friends are loud and they can really tease someone to death if they wanted to. Sakura likes to study alone in her dorm, where it is quiet so she can focus more, but when your crush calls you asking if he can study with you, you wouldn't say no right?

"Sakura? You've been staring you know. Are you tired? Should I buy you another coffee?" Sakura snapping from her train of thoughts to look at this handsome guy in front of her.

"What? Uh no! I'm fine, I was just uhh… memorizing…yes!" she blushed a little by the thought of him looking at her, maybe, she doesn't really know as her mind likes to daydream today instead of paying attention to her surroundings.

She looks at their table, full of books and snacks. They bought their coffees already but she notices that Sasuke's coffee hasn't really been touched, she guessed he's more of a snack guy.

'He is a snack,' her inner thoughts speaking to her and her eyes widen by the thought of it. He is more of a meal if she would clarify that.

"I guess you don't really like studying in public do you," he asked while writing something on his notebook, maybe some notes.

"I'm more comfortable studying at home but this is fine too," finals are coming so Sakura needs to study anytime she can get, though she can't really focus when she's with him.

"I guess me too… but I really like studying with you," Sasuke said almost mumbling as he focuses on doing his notes, what did he meant by that?

"Huh?" Sakura looks at him a bit confused.

"You like to study, so you kind of rub that on me," he answered normally, his statement not even bothering him. Sakura wanted to ask more but she notices that almost half a day has gone by and the amount she has studied is not even close if she wants to pass, she needs to focus, she needs to study, this is what they came for right? Right.

The day has gone by and it's already 7 pm, they both wanted to study in the coffee shop more if the staff didn't tell them that they would be closing for the day. Sakura found her focus and she is a bit irritated that they needed to stop, Sasuke looks like he is a bit irritated too. They both didn't know that the shop closes so early.

"We have been there since morning," Sakura stated, she doesn't know what to feel by her statement as she just wanted someone to talk, she doesn't do well in the silence, so she wanted to start a conversation.

"Hn," Sasuke replied, she guessed it was a reply even though it is too short to consider one. She wants to spend more time with him, but maybe this is enough for the day, God has replied to her prayers more than once this time.

"So yeah… I'm goi-" She was about to tell him her goodbyes when he speaks again.

"Would you like to uhh… have dinner?" Sakura cannot even comprehend what he said, her brain is too tired. Maybe she misheard him? She realizes that his ears are getting red, maybe he's embarrassed? Sakura is trying hard not to blush too much by the offer.

"Yeah, sure… w-Where do you want to have dinner?" They are both blushing at this point, Sakura is trying hard not to stammer, should she consider this as a date? Oh my gosh what if this is a date? She is not prepared for a date, she is wearing slide ons! Sakura's brain is jumping conclusions after conclusions.

'No this is just a simple dinner dumbass,' Sakura repeated on her mind to calm her heart down, but she can't stop her own what ifs.

'God if this is a date, please let me have some sneakers or heels next time,'

"There is actually uhh… my mother sent me a message earlier… she said we should have dinner at our house, only if you want to of course, we can look for somewhere you like...," the last part is almost a whisper.

Sakura's brain is ringing all the bells it can ring, what did he said? Did he just say at his house? They are not kids anymore, right? This is normal, just normal. But holy shit.

'What have my past self done to be this lucky today!' her inner thoughts are shouting.

"Also, my mom said… she would like to meet you," Oh her heart is about to explode at this point. What is happening?! Why is he saying this? Sakura's mind is just going blank, she is just staring at Sasuke at this point, staring blankly, she is trying her best to remain calm.

"Sakura? You don't need to if you don't want you know," Sakura smiled, she thought Sasuke is cute when he's like this, all embarrassed but she remembered that she is too, maybe she even looks like a tomato at this point, too red.

"Uhh... it's a bit embarrassing but yes of course I would love too," Sakura said almost too fast, but when she finished saying that she also saw Sasuke smiled. Oh, to see that smile.

It is safe to think of this as a date, right? Sakura thinks it is more than a date, she is meeting his mother! Maybe, just maybe, this is her moment. Maybe he also feels the same.

Maybe she has a chance.

Going in the Uchiha household is a roller coaster ride for Sakura, mentally and emotionally. She still can't believe that Sasuke invited her. Transportation wasn't a big deal, she didn't know that Sasuke brought his car so they didn't have any problem, but that became Sakura's problem.

'Is this really alright? Me? Going to his house? Having dinner with his family? I. Am. Wearing. Slide. Ons.'

Not that wearing that is big of deal for her, but she knows she could do better when she is going to meet her potentially, future in-laws, is what she likes to believe. They are on their way to Sasuke's house.

"Sasuke-kun, is this really alright?"

"Of course. If you don't want to, we could have dinner somewhere else,"

"It's not that," Sakura do not know how to tell him that she is embarrassed, one of the many emotions she is feeling right now. She noticed that Sasuke is glancing at her.

"What are you looking at mister? Eyes on the road please," She began to tease him to ease her growing anticipation of what to expect when they arrive there.

"If you're worried about your slide ons, they're fine," Sasuke said while smiling as he looks at the road ahead. Sakura blushed as her embarrassment goes beyond the car roof.

"You are so bad!" Sakura exclaimed while Sasuke chuckled at her response. Sakura smiled at his action, why is he doing this? What is his game? As they fall into silence, she was feeling so comfortable with him.

"I could get use to this you know," she said while looking at the window beside her. As not to be awkward if he notices her blush.

"Hn,"

As they arrive in the house it's just what she expects, a very big mansion, she knows that Sasuke's family is good in businesses so she didn't expect less than this. Now her slide ons are shaking, what if they mistake her as a maid?

'They wouldn't, right? I heard they are very polite,' Sakura talks to herself as she observed the house. They were pulling up the drive way and it is a long drive way.

"My mother really wanted to meet you, she likes to meet all of my friends," Sasuke said while he turns off the engine.

'Right. Friends. Duh' her inner self talking to her.

Sasuke walks out of the car and she follows. The mansion is beautiful full of lights, bright lights that shows the house's intricate designs, it's a mix of traditional and modern house but more on the tradition side. As they walk through the front door, a very beautiful lady great them.

"Sasuke-kun! I am so glad you chose to have dinner here! You must be Sasuke's friend?" She hugged Sasuke and smiled at her. She looks so beautiful, she looks like Sasuke. Sakura couldn't help but stare at her, she is mesmerized by her beauty. Sasuke notices that Sakura has no plans of looking away.

"Kaa-chan, this is Haruno Sakura, Sakura this is my mother," Sasuke said and in an instance, Sakura looks at Sasuke with wide eyes.

'His mother! She looks like our age! What's with their genes?!' Sakura is freaking out, but she smiled at the beautiful woman in front of her and tried her best to talk.

"Good evening Uchiha-san, I am Haruno Sakura, pleasure to meet you,"

"Oh! Don't be too formal my dear! Just call me Mikoto-san, everybody here is Uchiha-san," Sasuke's mother said while smiling at her, smile so warm.

"Let's go and have dinner, shall we?" Mikoto-san continued and walks toward the right hallway of the mansion. Sakura notices Sasuke looking at her and she can't help her smile.

"Why didn't you tell me she's your mother?!" she whispered to Sasuke as they walk behind Mikoto-san.

"Doesn't she look like my mother?"

"She looks like your sister!"

Sasuke smiled at her, more like laugh at her but he's holding it in so his mother wouldn't notice. He grabs Sakura's arm and continued to walk while dragging her with him.

Sakura couldn't help her emotions. She wants to cry, cry to God for listening to her wishes. She feels so lucky. She finally decided, this is her time, this is her moment, this is God's will, she will confess to him, she will tell him her feeling, at this moment she knows, that there is a chance that Sasuke feels the same.

She will take her chance.
