Deep In His Cold Heart
Chapter Ten: The Date
It was another beautiful and silent afternoon. Hours after Alyanna left Konoha, Naruto ate Ramen again for his afternoon snack. Kakashi continues to read his favorite book "Come, Come Paradise". Sakura went back to her house, thinking about Sasuke as usual. And Sasuke followed Sakura going to her house. He wants to ask her something. Something Sakura really wanted since they became genins. But Sakura doesn't notice that Sasuke is following her.
'I think Sakura doesn't notice me. I should make her notice.' Sasuke thought.
Sasuke walked nearer to her and touched her right shoulder. "Sakura," He mentioned her name.
Sakura grew surprised. She felt something warm touching one of her shoulders. She heard the voice who called her name. She faced her back and saw a very familiar face behind her. "Sasuke-kun, what are you doing here?" She asked as she recognized the smiling raven-haired boy.
Sasuke walked nearer to her and held her hand. "I'm here to ask you something." Sasuke replied.
The two stopped walking and faced each other.
"What… do you want to ask me about?" Sakura asked him again.
Sasuke blushed and went nearer to her. "Can we… have a date tomorrow?" Sasuke asked shyly.
Sakura blushed too because of shyness. "Okay, I would be happy if we would!" Sakura replied.
Sasuke smiled to her. "Our date will be in the forest tomorrow at 5:00 in the afternoon. Is that okay to you?" Sasuke told her.
Sakura nodded with her smiling, happy face. "Yes, Sasuke-kun. That would be fine to me."
Sasuke looked at Sakura's face. "Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow afternoon at the forest." He waved goodbye to Sakura and vanished to Sakura's sight.
'What is Sasuke-kun up too? He confessed his feelings already.' Sakura thought, walking back to her house.
Sasuke walked back to his house like Sakura did. He remembered his dream he had a month ago. They were in the forest, but Itachi suddenly killed his dear Sakura. 'I'll try to make her happy. Before that dream came true.' Sasuke thought. 'I hope that dream won't come true. I don't want to lose anyone I love again. I already lose my family and I don't want to lose Sakura!' He continued having thoughts about his "girlfriend" Sakura as he was walking back to his home.
It was another new day at the village of Konoha. The clock strikes eight-thirty in the morning. Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto are done training already. Now, they are free to do anything they want. Naruto was eating his breakfast as usual, at the ramen shop. Sasuke and Sakura are walking together again like in the days after Sasuke's confession. They were talking about the date later afternoon.
"Sakura, in our date later, I have a surprise to you." Sasuke said, starting their talk in their walk.
Sakura smiled at him. "Okay, I just hope that surprise will make me happy."
Sasuke smiled back at her, "It will make you really happy."
Sakura wanted to ask him a question. "Sasuke-kun, why do you want to date with me? You already confessed your true feelings that you love me back."
"There are three reasons. First, it's because I love you and the other reasons… you'll find out at the date." Sasuke said.
Sakura smiled again. "Oh… I wonder what those reasons are." She whispered.
Suddenly, they hear a familiar voice again.
"SAKURA! Help me cook lunch for our family!" It was Sakura's mom, calling her again.
Sakura sighed. "My mom's calling me, Sasuke-kun. I'll just see you later!" She said, waving her hand goodbye to Sasuke.
"Okay, I'll see you at the forest later five-o-clock in the afternoon!" Sasuke said, waving his hand back to her.
Sakura vanished to Sasuke's eyes, as Sakura went back to her house.
Sasuke went back to his house as Sakura did and waited for 5:00 PM.
It was already four-thirty in the afternoon at Konoha. Sakura looked at her clock to watch the time, 4:30 pm. She was already ready for her date with her "boyfriend" Sasuke. She was wearing her usual red dress, but she's finished taking a shower.
Sasuke was already in the forest, also wearing his usual clothes. He's ready to meet Sakura, since he's there since 4:00. He was holding a bouquet of flowers for Sakura. 'I hope she comes here on time. She'll come. She loves me as I love her back.' Sasuke thought.
Sakura walked down the stairs and asked permission to her mother. "Can I go out for a while? Sasuke-kun will walk me home."
"Okay, you can go out, but make sure to be back before 7:00 PM. You'll miss dinner." Her mom replied, slicing the ingredients for dinner.
"Okay, see you later, mom!" Sakura nodded and left the house.
Sakura walked outside, going to the forest.
It was already 4:55 PM. The sky is colored orange with a mix of pink, purple and other colors, showing that sunset is nearby. Sakura was walking nearer and nearer the forest.
Sasuke saw her from a distance and smiled. "So Sakura was already nearby… I just hope she'll be happy of what would I give her." He looked at the small box from his pocket. His face turned light red.
Sakura entered the forest already. She saw Sasuke from a distance.
"Is that Sasuke-kun?" She asked herself and walked nearer to him.
Sasuke smiled. "Sakura is not late. I see her nearby." He said to himself.
The two walked nearer to each other. "Sakura…" Sasuke called her name. "Sasuke-kun!" Sakura called his name. They already met each other in the exact time and place, 5:00 PM at the forest.
"You're just in time!" Sasuke said happily.
Sakura smiled and her face turned red. "Of Course… I want to be on time! You really waited for me!"
Sasuke gave her a bouquet of flowers, which he was holding a few minutes ago. "This is for you, Sakura."
Sakura was surprised. She really want him to do that last year and he did it NOW! Sakura smelled it. It has a very good aroma. "Oh, Sasuke-kun… you're so sweet! Thank you!" Sakura said with happiness, giving Sasuke an embrace of gratefulness.
Sasuke smiled and hugged Sakura back. "Okay, I'll tell you the second reason why I asked you for a date."
Sakura just smiled and showed him eagerness to know.
"It's because I want to give you some things. This is not really a date, but I just want us to be together alone in one place." Sasuke said.
The two stopped their embrace. "So, what are those things?" Sakura asked.
Sasuke gave her a very small box. "Open it." Sasuke told her.
Sakura opened a box and she saw a very beautiful necklace with her birthstone, Aquamarine on it. (A/N: Sakura was born in March) "WOW! This is so beautiful! It even had my birthstone on it!" Sakura said with joy.
Sasuke looked at Sakura's smiling, happy face. 'I'm really glad that she's happy of what I gave her.' Sasuke thought.
Sakura cried of happiness. "How about the third reason, what is it?" Sakura asked excitedly.
Sasuke looked at her face. "The last reason is that… I want to show you how I love you." Sasuke tilted Sakura's head nearer to his and gave her a kiss. Sakura kissed him back. The two really loved each other.
A few minutes later, Sasuke finally ended his very short "date" with Sakura. It's already 6:00 PM.
"Sakura, it's getting late. I'll walk you home." Sasuke said.
Sakura smiled. "Okay, I'm very happy! Thank you so much!"
The two walked back Sakura's house together, holding hands, showing love which changed Sasuke's life and attitude. It also changed Sakura's attitude. Love is a strong feeling for something or someone (It's even stronger than hatred!).
