Title: First Date
Theme: #24 - Good night
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Her pale, warm, and bony fingers slid in between his cold and equally bony fingers. She rested her head upon his shoulder and spread her lips across her face. Sakura squeezed her hand and the one she was holding on to. "Thank you for taking me out..." She mumbled to the man next to her as she batted her black eyelashes.
Sasuke blinked his eyes and didn't reply, he looked almost nervous, an unusual emotion for his character. "Hn..." He replied in his usual tone.
The two walked together down the dimly lit road of Konoha from the Ichi-Raku to his her house where he was to drop her off for the date they had just finished.
Sakura was most certain he could have chosen a better place for a first date then Ichi-Raku, but it was better then not dating him at all, and spending yet another night alone while all of her friends dated the man of their dreams. And even though her friends were dating the man of their dreams, Sakura had snagged the best of them all. Uchiha Sasuke was one that was constantly wanted by the girls in the village, and she was one to luck out and have her feelings returned by him.
After dinner, he had taken her on a stroll around the village. Hand-in-hand, the two walked down all the famous date routes and well-known places to hang out at. The dim lights from the a few lanterns, the moon, and a few fireflies, made the moment seem absolutely perfect in every way.
At the steps in front of Sakura's house, there was only one visible light coming from her house. It was most likely her waiting parents who wanted to make sure that Sasuke had kept his hands to himself.
She released her fingers from his and blushed. "I had such a wonderful time tonight. And, once again, thank you for taking me out."
He shoved his hands into his pockets. "You're welcome..."
Seconds slipped between the two without any words and just as Sakura was to walk into her house, he grabbed her hand. "Good night...Sakura..." He leaned in to her slowly, and planted his lips onto her cheek.
The temperature in her face rose to an alarming rate, and she felt like she was going to melt from so much that what was going on with her at the moment. "Y-yeah...good night, Sasuke." She finally stuttered out after Sasuke's lips were pulled away from her face.
Once back in her house, and seeing that her parents had left the light on so she would be able to see when she came home, she slowly walked up to her bedroom and plopped down on her bed, still thinking about the kiss. "Oh yes...good night...it came in more then one way..."
Authors notes - Maybe if they could have a normal life; their first date could have turned out something like this.
