Ino watched them as they disappeared, "And that leaves you.." she said as she turned her head and saw Sasuke with ice cream, "It's melting" he said as he handed her a coned vanilla, his however was chocolate. "Funny, I was a little hungry" Ino said, "We'll eat then…" Sasuke suggested, "Iie, I'm fine now… and it's late" she said, they began walking, with no idea where to go. The moon now up high in the sky, creating a silver lining in the surroundings, everything was in blue, black and silver except for the night lamps. "Funny, Sakura-chan let me walk alone with you ne?" Ino asked, he long blonde hair covering her whole back and half her cheek, Sasuke didn't answer. They were finishing their ice cream.
Finally they reached the meadows, Ino smiled and ran, Sasuke followed close behind her. "This is where me and Sakura used to play when we were little" she said. Sasuke didn't answer. Flowers were just like growing everywhere, various flowers, and what's weird is that the moon looke awfully big on this side of Konoha. Ino stood staring up at the stars, they were scattered like glass beads on a velvet cloth. "Pretty" Ino said, "Yeah…" Sasuke replied, looking at Ino. Then finally Ino caught him again looking at her, she laughed, "Is there something wrong?" She asked.. "Is there something on my face?"
"None.." Sasuke replied. "It's perfect" he said absent mindedly. Ino blushed, she felt her heart racing, and her face is getting warm. "Ok…" Ino thought, "Calm down. Its just Sasuke… Oh gosh no! IT IS SASUKE!" Ino tried to control herself, it was quite a while when finally Sasuke spoke to her. "Ino-san, I need to tell you something" Sasuke said, "Uh-oh" Ino said to herself, she can't reply, she just stood there looking at Sasuke. "I just want to let you know that… that.." Sasuke was blushing, he didn't know what to say next, Ino patiently but anticipating, waited for him to finish the sentence. "That.. I like you… a lot.. But then… I've thought about it… because I can't stop thinking about you, I was jealous of him a little while ago and I just didn't know what to do and I realized that I love you… there I said it…" Sasuke sighed, he looked down and waited for response but there was none so this was his chance to tell her everything.
"When I saw that body, I knew it was you, when I saw you I've thought about them.. My friends, I've thought about how I used to be.. I've thought about my family, with those things you said to me, they had me thinking a lot.. I decided to come back… I came back for you…", Sasuke said, his tone was calm and soothing.. Ino was shocked… she never expected this…
"Sasuke Uchiha…" Ino thought, "The great Sasuke Uchiha is in front of me right now, confessing, telling me that he.. Loves me.. That he came back because of me… this is too good…too good.. Just wake me up…after all those time Ino thought of the times she and Sakura used to quarrel about Sasuke how she used to jump on his back and hug him. "Every guy wants to be him, every girl wants to be with him and now here he is… why me, after two years…", then finally Ino caught up with her senses, she felt a tear make its way through her cheeks, "Why… me.. Is it because I've changed.. Did you ever see me when I was…young?" Ino asked, her crystal eyes waiting for a reply. Sasuke looked at her surprised to see that she was crying, he immediately wrapped his arms around her, Ino felt her knees weakening, Sasuke's arms is so strong, you feel that you can just collapse.
"Yeah..Ino.. I always did.." This made Ino cry even more, she buried her face on his chest, and she can't stop crying. "You were the only one who saw me… behind the mask.. "You really have changed…Ino.." Sasuke said, Ino slowly parted herself from Sasuke. "What did you expect, living without you for two years? No one to talk to about my problems devastated that you left without goodbye, ha Sakura was the last person who saw you. Wondering if you're alright…" Ino continued until Sasuke bent down and.. Kissed her…
It was the best feeling in the world, his arms embracing her, his soft lips unto hers; he was her only warmth in the cold night. She couldn't ask for anything more, he was all she needed and to Sasuke, she is his only missing piece and he needs her, he found his purpose. Sasuke caught scent of Ino, like all the flowers in the world, she smelled so good, that Ino felt him breath that slightly tickled her neck. It was a sweet, gentle kiss and if it wasn't or the shooting stars that colored the sky they wouldn't have parted, "Kirei.." Ino remarked.
Sasuke smiled, "yeah…" he said, right now, there is nothing more important to him than Ino. Ino looked at Sasuke and smiled, "She is the most beautiful flower there is.." Sasuke thought. After the display of colors in the sky, Ino held Sasuke's hand, "thank you.." she said, Sasuke smiled, "I'll wait for your reply.. Until then.. I"ll walk you home" he said as he held her hand tighter. Hand in hand they walked to her place.. When she got home, she watched him go from her windowsill.
Remembering the shop, she went down to check the flowers, but to her surprise, she saw something on top of the cashier table. It was a purple bud. Picking up the sprayer, she sprayed some water on it, to her surprise, the bud slowly bloomed, revealing another layer of petals that was pink. She was so amazed, it was so beautiful, it gave off a sweet fragrant, when it finally bloomed, and it was the most beautiful flower she has ever seen. With lilac and baby pink petals… just then she saw something carved on the pot, she recognized the character and remembered him.. "That guy…" she thought, the character says, "Love"
