Chapter 6: Sasuke and Sakura's Valentine Day- Part I
An 'Accident'… kissSasuke woke up as the rising sunlight shone onto his face through his window. He had dreamt of Sakura last night. He sat up on his bed as his thought ran through his head.
'What an unusual dream… I'd usually would be dreaming of the horrible day when my clan was wiped out and there would be Itachi… laughing…'
Sasuke clenched his fist at the thought of Itachi.
'I'll get him one day…' Then an image of Sakura came back into his thoughts.
'Sakura… that was a weird dream… I dreamt that I… kissed her? It felt so… nice… I wonder what it'll feel like in real life?…argh… stop it Uchiha!… you're an avenger remember? ….but… I know that I love her now… and I did tell Naruto that I'd be…telling her how I feel… today… a Uchiha should never back down on his words…'
Sasuke then remembered what had happened last night. When he called out to her and she turned around with her hair flinging behind her. He felt his cheeks go warm. 'She looked so… beautiful…' He lied back down with his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling. Thoughts of Sakura ran through his mind once again as he saw an image of her smiling in his head. Sasuke chuckled to himself. He glanced at his clock on his bedside table- 6:45. He decided to get up and go do some early training. He took a shower and packed his bag for the day as 'requested' by Kakashi- Clothes for dinner in the evening and a towel and swimmers for the hot springs. He slung his bag over his shoulder and walked down the hall way and into the kitchen, where he grabbed some toast from the toaster and he had placed in earlier. He ate his 'quick breakfast' as he walked out the door. He locked it behind him and headed towards the gate.
As he did he glanced over at his mailbox and sighed at what he saw. It was the same every year. His mailbox was full of pink and red Valentines Day cards from his 'fan club'. It was packed full and there were even boxes of chocolates. He walked straight past and out his front gate. He stopped for a while and decided to walk the long way to his training area. As he did he walked past the 'Old Cherry Blossom Park'. It was called that because it contained the oldest cherry blossom tree in all of Konoha. Every time it blooms, it's blossoms were the most beautiful of all compared to the other cherry blossom trees around it. As he was walking, one particular blossom flew in the wind and landed in the pathway in front of him.
Sasuke stopped and picked it up. He gazed at its pink petals and its soft texture. So beautiful yet so fragile. It reminded him of how fragile Sakura's heart was. A pain of Guilt hit him hard in the stomach. All these years he had said those cold words to her. How they shattered her heart so many times and yet she still had faith in him and kept going back.
'Sakura…' Sasuke thought as he let the wind blow the cherry blossom in his hand away in the direction of where Sakura's house was.
BEEEEEP! BEEEEP!
The alarm of Sakura rang. She didn't want to wake up. She had dreamt of Sasuke last night and did not want to wake from it. It wasn't unusual for her to dream of him. She did dream of him almost every night but last night's dream was the best one of them all. Last night… was when Sasuke had finally opened up a bit and shown his care for her.
BEEEEEP! BEEEEP!
The alarm continued to ring. Sakura stretched out her hand blindly and tried to hit the snooze button.
'No, No, Not now…not at the best part!'
She didn't succeed and instead had knocked the clock onto the floor. It continued to ring, even louder as it seems.
She finally sat up and looked around for the ringing machine. "Aha." She reached down and hit the off button. She glared at the pink heart-shaped alarm.
"Why do you always have to ring at the best part!" She yelled at it. Sakura placed the alarm back on her bedside table and pulled the covers back on her. She shut her eyes tight and tried to recall the moment of her dream before her alarm rang.
Sakura's Dream
Sakura and Sasuke were walking down the pathway through Old Cherry Blossom Park. It was spring and the trees were full of beautiful pink cherry blossoms. They were holding hands as they walked. Sasuke's left in Sakura's right. Sasuke stopped abruptly and looked over at Sakura. She smiled back at him. Sasuke smiled back and led her to the Old Cherry Blossom Tree. There, he plucked a flower from one of it's lower branches. He turned around and smiled sweetly at her before carefully placing the flower above her left ear in her hair. Sakura was blushing the whole time and their hands were still linked.
Sakura's face was burning up now. She was as red as a tomato. Sakura looked at the floor in front of her where Sasuke was standing on.
"Sakura." Sasuke whispered.
She looked up and his dark onyx eyes met her light green ones. Sakura could see love in his eyes. He leaned in slowly. Sakura could begin to feel his warm breath as inched in closer…and closer…Sakura closed her eyes as she felt his warm breath on her lips. He leaned in closer once more and Sakura prepared herself for what she was about to receive and –
BEEEEP!BEEEP!
Her alarm rang.
End Dream
Sakura scowled. 'Damn that stupid alarm clock! Always waking me up at the best parts! Shannaro!'
"Sakura? Sakura? Your alarm rang already so wake up! Sakura!" Sakura's mum called through her bedroom door.
Sakura groaned.
"Oh so you're awake? Don't you have to meet some one today? It is Valentines Day after all…"
"Huh?… Oh yeah! It's Valentines Day! Oops! I almost forgot." She chuckled to herself.
"I baked some cookies so you can take some with you when you go to meet whoever you're meeting today." She opened the door and looked at Sakura curled up in her bed sheets. "I have to go to work now. I wrapped up up the cookies and they are on the dining table. I'll see you later okay?"
"Yeah, sure mum. Thanks!" Her mother closed the door and went to work.
Sakura finally sat up on her bed and rubbed her eyes. She looked at her clock- 7:45. Sakura got out of bed and picked out an outfit from her closet for tonight's dinner. She thought as she searched through her closet ' I want something that will make Sasuke-kun notice me… something pretty but not over the top…hmm…"
She pulled out a few dresses and held them up on her as she looked in the mirror.
"Too short. Too big. Too revealing. Too sparkly. Too casual. Not casual enough. Not pretty enough. Too UGLY. Don't like the colour. Too long. Not sparkly enough. AHA!"
She pulled out a white dress and held it up over as she looked at herself in the mirror. It was a white dress with pink cherry blossom pattern scattered all over it. It had white shoelace straps and cut off just above her chest and a little pink bow in the middle to finish it off. The dress finished off just above her knees and was made from light material. Sakura grabbed one side of the dress and the other hand pressed the dress to her chest as she spun around in front of the mirror. She giggled to herself and grabbed something else to go to the hot springs. She went back tot eh closet and pulled out a pair of jeans and a black top, then went to take a shower.
She came out in her casual outfit and looked in the mirror of her dressing table. She blew dry her hair and tied it back in a high pony tail. She left a few strands to frame her face at the front.
'I dun think that I should wear make-up for now. I'll put some on after the hot springs before the dinner.' She carefully folded her dress neatly and carefully placed it into her bag along with her make up bag. She made her bed and cleaned up her room a bit. When she was satisfied, she walked down the stairs and into the kitchen to eat breakfast. As she made her way into the kitchen, she saw the box of cookies wrapped neatly in a square pink box with a red ribbon on top. She placed it into her bag also but as she did a thought hit her.
' Oh no! it's Valentines Day and I forgot to buy a present for Sasuke-kun!'
She hit herself on the forehead
' What do I do? What can I give him? Aww…I can be so forgetful sometimes. I guess that these cookies will have to do.' She sighed. ' It's better than nothing.'
Sakura finished her breakfast and headed out the door. She locked it behind her and slung her bag over her shoulder and was off.
As she walked down the road to the bridge, memories of last night flooded back into her head. Sakura's cheeks reddened and she hugged herself to bring back the memory of Sasuke's shirt on her. The warmth and comfort it brought.
Sakura walked past Old Cherry Blossom park and she remembered her dream last night. She giggled to herself.
' I wonder if it will come true?…I doubt it…He would never be so sweet… no matter how much I didn't want to admit that… but considering what happened yesterday…it might be a possibility…'
Sakura smiled at the thought. She was almost at the bridge. No one was there when she arrived. Figuring that Sasuke probably got up earlier to go train or something, she sat down under a nearby tree. She pondered for a while before finally deciding to quickly make a Valentines Day card for Sasuke. All she had were eyeliner pens and some paper she found in her bag.
'This is hopeless. The Cookies will have to do.'
She looked around and sat quietly listening to the sound of birds singing in the early morning. Soon, she slowly dozed off into a dreamless sleep within the peaceful environment.
SMASH!
Another tree clashed to the hard forest floor. Sasuke stood there panting. He had been training all morning but he did it all half mindedly. Half his mind was focused on his training and the other half was thinking of Sakura, and the incident of the dream last night.
' Why can't I just get her out of my head!' he yelled to himself and threw another punch to a new tree trunk. ' Because you LOVE her…' said a voice at the back of his head, emphasizing the word 'Love'. He stood there frozen. The same thing had happened the day before. He now knew what all these feelings had meant. The jealousy, the worry, and his heart melting at her beauty. He decided to take a break from his training. He walked over to his bag and grabbed out a drink bottle from his bag. He sat down and drank as he relaxed his body against a tree. The sun had fully risen in the sky now. He checked his watch- 8:30.
'We were suppose to meet Kakashi at 9. I'd better head over. I bet that Sakura's there already.' Picking up his bag, he began walking out of the forest and towards the bridge. While he was walking there he saw a figure sleeping under a nearby tree but did not recognize it. He decided to conceal his presence as he approached the figure. Jumping silently from tree to tree, he finally reached the tree the sleeping figure was leaning on. Lowly and as quietly as he could, he climbed down the branches. As he got closer, her pink hair came into view and he instantly knew who it was. He jumped and landed on the floor a few metres away from her. A smirk appeared on his face as eh saw that she was asleep. She looked so peaceful and innocent. Her lips were lightly apart and her head tilted slightly to one side. Her chest moving up and down in a steady rhythm.
Sasuke found himself staring and taking in her features. From her bangs slightly covering her right eye to the soft lips that were parted slightly. He felt the urge to kiss her, to hold her in his arms until she woke up. Without thinking he approached the sleeping figure and lowered his head until it was just hovering above her face. He wanted to capture those plump lips but thought otherwise. Suddenly he stumbled a bit on a rock he had stepped on earlier and his head leaned forward causing his lips to collide with hers. His lips met her soft ones. He broke off quickly and fell backwards onto the floor. He sat there staring with eyes wide, still trying to take in what had just happened. Still staring at her sleeping face, he silently prayed that she would not wake up because of it.
Sakura was in a deep, dreamless sleep. She had felt something soft pressing against her lips but the feeling left before she could enjoy it.
Sasuke was still staring at Sakura, expecting a reaction of some sort from her. Sakura's eyes twitched a bit and she frowned slightly before relaxing again back to her slumber.
Sasuke let out a silent sigh of relief.
'Did I just kiss her?…No! It was an accident…but…what is more questioning was that…i.. liked it…Her lips were so soft…and sweet…I hope that she didn't feel it though…'
Finally coming to his senses, knowing that he hadn't taken his eyes off of her for a while now, he got up off the floor and jumped up into a tree. There he sat on a branch and closed his eyes. The two waited silently for the arrival of Kakashi.
