He didn't like how she made him feel unimportant.

Because all his life he always felt he was important. His mother would dote on him excessively (although much to his chagrin), his father held high expectations from him, Itachi (his older brother) never failed give him his time, his friends were by his side most of the time, girls flocked to him.

Not Sakura Haruno though. Not her. And somehow, this offends him.

More often than not, he'd caught her staring off somewhere aimlessly while in his presence. Of course, he's aware how he was starting to sound overly egotistical but come on.

He's going out of his way to distract her and she's just ignoring him.

Like right now.

They're walking along the foreshore while the sun retreats back to the horizon when Sakura suddenly stopped and just stared off aimlessly towards the ground.

Is she cold? he wondered, after all it's winter at the moment and snowing—both something she's never experienced before her great escape here in Oto.

If she was, Sasuke was certain that wasn't the reason she stopped at the sight of frown.

She's probably thinking about… whatever the hell happened before the summer.

Sighing, there was only one thing he could think of doing to bring her back to the present. He bent down to grab snow in his hands and balled it before throwing the ball at her face.

Her surprised gasp made him smirk.

"You asshole!" but he'd already see through to her. Beneath this angry façade was a grateful heart.

"Anytime."

tbc.

okay, title changed! to those who remember, this drabble fic was previous called as 'here we go again' and now it's called 'no other love'—let's just i was listening to some Chopin the other day *wink* and the lyrics made out of his beautiful etude fits this story more perfectly. i'll post the lyrics on my tumblr ;)

thanks to MirageDream for reminding me to update this ;)
