"Hmm, maybe or maybe not… unless you are trying to sleep with her." Kakashi winked, chuckling evilly.

Sasuke blushed, "No! I'm not that type of person! Don't think about that!"

Kakashi laughed, "I'm just making sure. Anyhow, I'm sure you'll do fine on your first date. Just have fun and enjoy yourself."

"Hai, I will." Sasuke smiled.


Chapter 6- Date

It was 8'o clock in the evening… Sasuke was waiting at the park ever since Sakura told him where to meet her. Sasuke was nervous for his first date because he didn't know what his date would be like. Sasuke checked his watch to see what time it was. It said, '8:05'.

"Where is she? Why isn't she here yet? Doesn't she know its cold out here…? I hope she gets here fast." Sasuke rubbed his hands together in an attempt to warm himself.

"SASUKE-KUN!"

Sasuke jumped, frightened after he felt two arms warp around his waist. He looked down and saw a pinked haired girl smiling at him, "Sakura, don't scare me like that! I thought you were a bad guy that wanted to mob me for my money or something."

Sakura let go of him and said, "Gomen nasai, I didn't mean to scare you like that! I'm excited about going out on a date with you and I'm sure you are excited like me, right?"

"I guess… I'm pretty nervous because I've never been on a date before." Sasuke rubbed his raven hair.

"Don't worry about that! I'm nervous too! To make you feel any better, this is my first time going on a date." She smiled.

Sasuke was in shock, "Nani? You can't be serious? I thought you went on dates a lot of times already!"

Sakura shook her head, "Nope, you're the first person that I've ever asked out. I'm sure this date will be fun! Anyway, let's go now!" She held his hand.

"Where are we going?" Sasuke asked politely.

"You will see!"

After 15 minutes…

"Here we are, Sasuke-kun!"

"This is…" Sasuke looked around.

They were at the Ice Skating Arena. There are lots of people skating around on ice and lots of couple who were holding hands and smiling each other. A few kids were skating as well. There was also cabin close by, and food and drinks were present as well. Sasuke knew right away that it must be a restaurant.

"Why are we here for?"

"What do you think, silly? We are going to skate! Isn't it great? We're going to have so much fun!"

"S-Skate? I have to skate too?"

"Sure, this is what I planned for our first date! I thought that first we should go skating, and after that we go eat. Doesn't that sound good? Well, let's go skate now!" She grabbed his arm.

"Matte, I don't think tha-Ahh!" Sasuke was dragged away and they went to get their skating equipment.

5 minutes later….

"Okay Sasuke-kun, let's go skate!" Sakura smiled.

"…You go on ahead… I'll be right with you." Sasuke sat on the bench.

"Okay!"

Sakura stepped onto ice. She started skating around. Sasuke watched her skate. He was amazed to see how good Sakura could skate. When she did the turning, circling around, it was as if she was doing ballet.

"Wow… Sakura skates very well. I never thought that she could be this wonderful… demo watching her is like an angel. I think I should give it a try." Sasuke thought.

Sasuke stood up and walked over. When he stepped onto ice, he slid in carefully, testing his balance, "Hey… This is the same as skating in roller blade. I guess it's not that hard. Maybe it isn't that BADDD-AHHHH!" Sasuke fell down, landing heavily on his behind with a grunt.

"Ow! I take that back what I said… This is worse than roller blade." Sasuke groaned, rubbing his behind.

The people laughed and most of girls were giggling at him which made Sasuke's cheeks tinge a dark red.

One of the kid said, "Haha, stupid guy. Look at yourself, you fall so easily. Is this your first time skating? Man, you must be really suck!" He laughed and skated away.

"…That was really embarrassing. I never thought this kid would say that to me." Sasuke felt both embarrassed and ashamed.

"Sasuke-kun, are you all right?"

The raven haired boy looked up, staring at the pinked haired girl who had a worried face.

"I'm fine… I just slipped off, that's all."

She giggled, "I see. It seems that you've never skated before right?"

Sasuke blushed as he was looking down, "Um… Hai, you can see that."

She giggled even more, "No wonder. Why don't I teach you to skate? It'll be much easier. Here let me help you up!" She held her hand out, grinning at him.

Sasuke grabbed onto Sakura's hand. He stood up, "You don't have to. I don't want to cause any trouble."

"No trouble at all. Come on, let's go have fun!" She held his hand.

"Oh no…"

Sasuke held Sakura's hand tightly, hoping he doesn't fall because he doesn't want to get his butt hurt again or get embarrassed from people watching him fall - and then they would probably laugh at him again.

"Oh man… I feel so retarded. I'm letting a girl teach me how to skate while people are watching me. They must be laughing their heads off behind my back... I can't believe this is happening." He sighed.

"Now Sasuke-kun, it goes like this, left, right, left, right." She held his both hands pulling him forwards as she skated backwards in front of him. She was teaching him to skate.

Sasuke followed her instructions and he did what she told him to. After 30 minutes past, Sasuke finally got it. This time, Sakura released his hands and Sasuke started skating himself. He wasn't as good as Sakura, but at least he knew how to skate now.

"Sasuke-kun, you did it!" Sakura shouted happily.

"Yeah, thanks to you, I wouldn't able to learn to skate this fast. Arigatou." Sasuke thanked her.

Sakura's cheek turned slightly turned pink, "Oh Sasuke-kun, you're embarrassing me, but I'm so glad!" She hugged him tightly.

"Chotte matte, Sakur-AHHH!" Sasuke fell down.

Sakura was still hugging Sasuke even they fell together. Sasuke felt the familiar pain of his behind and grimaced slightly. Sakura's weight wasn't helping any either.

"Sakura, how long are you going to hug me?"

"Oops, gomen." Sakura removed her hug, "Gomen, I didn't mean to cause you to fall. Here let me help you up." Sakura helped him up again.

Sasuke grabbed her hand again, stood up and he was rubbing his butt again. Sasuke and Sakura left the ice arena. They took off their skates and returned to the counter.

"Okay Sakura, what do you want to do nex- Huh? Sakura, where are you?" Sasuke looked around.

"Over here, Sasuke-kun!"

Sasuke twisted his head around, his eyes were widening when he saw something white coming straight towards his face.

SPLAT!

A snowball hit at his face, Sasuke wiped the snow off of his face.

Sakura began to giggle, "Hehe, you got hit from my snowball!"

Sasuke knelt down and grabbed some snow. He made a snowball as well, "Oh so, you wanna have a snowball war? Well, you got it!"

"Noo!" Sakura ran away from him.

"Come back!" He chased after her.

Sasuke and Sakura kept playing at the snowball wars. Most likely, Sasuke was having a good time throwing snowballs at the pink haired girl. It's been a while since he had so much fun since he had been working all the time. After an hour past, they stopped their little game and sat on the snow, both panting heavily.

"Sasuke-kun, I'm hungry! Let's go to the cabin and drink some hot cocoa!"

"All right then. Let's race it; last one in is the rotten egg!" Sasuke ran ahead.

"Hey, no fair! You cheater!" Sakura ran too.

Sasuke was fairly close to cabin, and after he opened the door, he walked in. He stopped and was completely shocked to see that Sakura was already there, breathing ghastly.

"Where did yo- How did you get in here fast?" He asked.

"W-What do you think? I dashed here. You thought that I wouldn't able to get here fast enough, didn't you? What makes you think that I could run away from that old man in the beginning?" She coughed.

"…" Sasuke still didn't understand or how she gets here in.

"That means you're a rotten egg. Haha." She laughed.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm a rotten egg… Anyway, let's go drink hot cocoa."

"Okay! I want mine with lots of marshmallows!"

They sat down. The waiter came by. Sasuke and Sakura ordered their food and drink - of course, hot cocoa. The waiter wrote it all down on a notepad and walked away.

Sasuke and Sakura were staring at each other, which made Sasuke more nervous because he had never eaten dinner with anyone but himself. Except his friends. But that was only a couple of times. He still wasn't used to it.

Sasuke thought, "Come on Sasuke… Think of something to say... You don't want the girl to get bored from on the very first date! If I don't say anything, she might not be having a good time. Okay, stop talking and say it now!"

"Um… Sakura?"

"Hai?" Sakura stared at him.

"I… Uh…" Sasuke couldn't think a word to say.

"What am I supposed to say? I never talked this intensely with a girl before. Oh no, she's staring at me! She must be waiting for me to say something or… got bored of me. Damn, just ask her a question! But what question do I ask? Okay, it can be anything. I can do this, I can do this!"

"Uh… Nice backpack…" Sasuke stared at her backpack, "Baka! Why did I say that! I'm supposed to ask a question. Oh man, now I'm screwed!"

"Oh Arigatou! I'm glad you like my backpack." She smiled.

"Oh… no problem. I thought it looks nice on you." Sasuke thought, "Okay… That wasn't that bad. At least, I said something."

She giggled, "Thanks. I think you looked so handsome yourself."

Sasuke blushed, looking away, "Handsome? Um… Gee… Thanks."

"Hehe, Sasuke-kun, you're so cute when you blush. That makes you looked even cuter." She giggled even more.

"Sakura, stop saying that. Are you trying to humiliate me?"

"No, I just wanted you to know what I thought of you." Sakura couldn't help herself but to giggle even more.

Sasuke wasn't mad at her for laughing at him, but he never thought that Sakura would be so cute when she giggled. Here he is, staring at her giggle and watching her cute smile, which made him smile even more.

After that, the waiter came back and brought their orders. He walked away. Sasuke and Sakura were talking and asking a bunch of questions to get to know each other. Sasuke had never felt this way before. Talking to her was really making him happy.

Later, when they had finished eating their meals, they looked at the time. It was already getting late. Sasuke and Sakura left the cabin and went walking together in the direction of downtown.

"Sakura let me walk you home." Sasuke offered her.

Sakura paused, "Um… That's okay, Sasuke-kun. You don't have to."

"No, I insist."

"No, it's okay. I could walk by myself."

"I don't think that's good idea. It's not safe for a girl like you show walk by yourself at this late evening."

"Sasuke-kun, you're very sweet! Don't worry. My house isn't that far. I'm almost there."

"Okay… I'll let you go this time. But just be careful okay?"

"Okay, I will!"

Sakura stopped and faced at him, "Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke stopped as well and stared at her, "Hai?"

"…You have something on your face."

"Huh? Where?"

"Here." She pointed.

Sasuke wiped his cheek, "Is it gone?"

"No, it's still there. Come closer, I'll help you."

Sasuke came closer. He was close to Sakura's face. His eyes were widening when Sakura kissed his lips softly. She backed away from the kiss and she smiled. Sasuke stood there, stunned.

"Thanks for the date. I really had fun! Let's do this again sometime! I'll see you later! Ja ne!" Sakura waved as she ran off.

Sasuke watched her left.

Sasuke had a small grin on his face, "Just like how we met… she had been running, too."

Sasuke was speechless; he touched his lips where Sakura had kissed him. He wasn't expecting that to happen. He wasn't sure what to think or how he felt. Sasuke walked back to his apartment.

He opened the door and walked inside. He took off his shoes and marched to his room. He changed from his regular clothes into his pajamas. He laid on his bed, still thinking about the kiss that he had received from Sakura. After an hour, Sasuke fell asleep.

"Sasuke-kun! Come on, let's go skating!" The pinked haired shouted.

"No…I don't want to." Sasuke said.

"Why not?"

"…If I tell you, you'll laugh at me."

"I won't laugh at you, I promise! Please tell me!" She begged.

Sasuke sighed, "…I don't know how to skate."

"Aw, is that it? Then I'll teach you how to skate!"

"No, that's not a good idea!"

"Why is that?"

"Because… It's embarrassing that a girl teaches a boy how to skate and people might watch and laugh at me."

She giggled, "Don't worry! It won't happen! Come on, let's go skating!" She held his hand.

"Matte! I-AHHH!" Sasuke was dragged away by the pinked haired girl.

They went skating together. Sasuke kept on falling down. People started laughing at him; he quickly got up, and slipped again. Sasuke wanted to get out of here, but he couldn't because he doesn't want her think that he mad at her. Watching her skating, it was making him feel like a baka. When she came back, she helped Sasuke up. She taught him how to skate even though, he still fells many times. He still had fun with her.

They went to sit down on the bench, "Sasuke-kun, did you have fun?" She stared at him.

"Yeah, I really have fun, even though, I couldn't skate well. But it doesn't matter, it was fun." He smiled.

She giggled, "I'm glad you did. Let's do this again sometimes."

"Sure, why not."

"Good! Then it's a promise! Promise that you won't forget?" She took out her little pinkies.

He nodded, "Hai, I promised!" They embraced their pinkies.

The alarm clock sounded, "WAKE UP, WAKE UP! IT'S 5:30AM! TIME TO GO TO WORK, WORK, WORK! TIME TO EAT BREAKFAST, BREAKFAST, BREAKFAST!"

Sasuke reached for the clock and turned it off, "…Skating? Why did I dream of that? Have I skated before? I don't remember… That girl is always in my dreams. What is the meaning of this? I don't understand… I've got to get ready for work." He stood up from the bed. This would have to wait until later.
