Chapter Five:
During the Summer, at the end of eleventh grade, Sasuke asked me to go on a date with him. I could just feel my emerald eyes shining as if they'd never shined before. But his weren't. I remember they were as dark as usual. Dark and uncaring. But I just couldn't waste time ex-cogitating about that. After all, I had a date with Sasuke Uchiha, the most desired, hottest guy in the school. Or maybe even in the entire country! But I might have been exaggerating just a bit.
So, that was the night I had my first date. Well, that's what I liked to think of it as. I had a few dates before, but that was the one that really meant something to me. At least, during the time I readied myself for it, that's how I viewed it.
He told me to meet him at Ichiraka's ramen shop, so I didn't dress too fancily. I wore a hot pink dress that reached down to my mid-thighs, and was spaghetti-strapped. For accessories, I put a green beaded necklace and bracelet on, which matched my eyes just perfectly. My shoes were almost the same color as my dress, only a little lighter in tone. They were simple; no heels or anything like that were attatched. I didn't want to trip and fall on my face, did I now? I just wore my usual blend of makeup. And I curled the front pieces of my hair. So, I didn't overdo it or anything.
When I met Sasuke, he was dressed in black shorts instead of the light kacky ones, and also a black short-sleeved shirt. Let me tell you: Black was most definitely his color.
His face was serious. I mean, more than it regularly was.
"Hey, Sasuke," I said as I took the seat next to him. "You look great." I smiled brightly.
"Hey, Sakura. What brings you here dressed like that?" he asked me. He actually had the nerve to ask me that! I was so abashed I really didn't know how to answer that. All I could think was, did he forget?
"Um, Sasuke..." Then a panic came over me. Was it the wrong night? was what I wondered.
He chuckled. "I'm just joking. Don't worry, I didn't forget."
My pink eyebrows crinkled in even more confusion.
"I actually wanted to talk to you. That's why I asked you out," he confessed.
"What do you mean, Sasuke? What do you want to talk to me about?"
A/N: I hate cliff hangers, but I didn't get a chance to snag the computer today until now, unfortunately. I hope it isn't too egregious of me. Heh, anyway, I just don't want to miss this movie that's coming on in a few minutes. It's on Lifetime, called The Capture of the Green River Killer. Did anyone catch the first part last night? Uh, okay then, so thanks for reading and reviewing! Wow, this note is longer than usual. :D
