Request from: Tsuray

Sakura x Kuuga

~Narrator's P.O.V~

The warm rays of sunshine shone through the school's window, almost as if it was reaching out to hold the bubbly pinkette in it's embrace while she leaned against the window, broom held loosely, looking towards the clear sky that was slowly turning into a bright orange hue with hints of purple and yellow. The pinkette's thoughts slowly drifted towards a certain blond haired singer who she was currently, and happily, dating.

"N-ne, Sakura, um... Why are you like.. Glowing?" The said pinkette snapped out of her reverie and looked across the room to see Misaki and Shizuko covering their eyes to shield them from the dazzling light that Sakura was emitting.

"Hmm? I'm glowing? Really? I don't think so..." Sakura's reply slowly turned into a mumble as she searched her body for any sources of light, Sakura Knew they didn't mean it in a literal sense nevertheless, she continued to search for a light source that was supposedly making her glow.

"I suggest that you step out of the light before you blind us all." Shizuko stated in a monotonous voice yet her face showed that she was more that uncomfortable with the bright luminous light that the bubbly pinkette was giving off. As Sakura started to move away from the window she felt a quick repetitive vibration in her skirt pocket, she pulled out her phone to see it was a message from Kuuga.

When you finish school wear something adorable~,

I'll pick you up at your house and we'll go somewhere fun.

love you~ Ja ne!

- Kuuga~ 3

Sakura's face exploded into a cherry hue as she read the message, she had never been this excited to go on a date with Kuuga; or course, the blonde haired singer did take his girlfriend out to dates but it was usually at the last minute or in surprise when she least expected it, so it came as a surprise to her when he had messaged her.

"Sakura. Sakura. Sakura! SAKURA! PLEASE DON'T DROWN US" Sakura turned her head as she saw Misaki and Shizuko drowning in little moe flowers. She looked at them with a dazed look until she realised what was happening; she quickly went over to them as she started to free her friends from the thousands of moe flowers that were flooding the room throwing apologies to her friends in a fluent and almost threatening motion. As they continued their cleaning duty Sakura couldn't help but switch between cleaning the blackboard to checking the time which was ticking by ever so slowly as if mocking her and taunting the poor pinkette; However, when cleaning duty was finished she wasted no time in hastily grabbing her bag and running straight past her two close friends as they stood adjacent to each other with a blank expression evident on their face. Sakura got home as soon as she could and with a speed that could even surpass light itself, she took very brisk shower and packed necessary items such as her phone, mascara, lip gloss, keys, a mirror, her purse, etc. in the small pastel sling bag that was matched with a light violet sun dress accompanied with yellow heels, she then simply tied her hair into her signature pigtails and she applied her make up. It had been around 3:30 pm when she arrived at home and she glanced at the clock and saw that it was 3:45, she looked outside her window to look for the familiar car the Kuuga drove only to find that the streets were empty.

2 hours had eventually passed and Sakura had practically given up hope that he wasn't coming; she settled on going out and walking around because she didn't want to waste the make up and clothes that she had prepared for him. After walking aimlessly down the long winding streets and she had decided to visit the park that was oddly, yet perfectly, fit within the busy neighbourhood. She sat there for a minute and couldn't help but feel as if she was going insane.

'Sakura!'

Was she hearing things? She swore that someone had yelled her name but no one else was in the park aside from her, who was currently lying down on the bench stomach up, a couple of elders walking by and families who were picnicking on the grass. The pinkette covered her eyes to shield her eyes from the everlasting sun as her strawberry tresses fell from her shoulders and were almost touching the concrete ground.

'Oi! Sakura!'

She heard the desperate voice come closer but she didn't bother looking around and in all honesty, her legs hurt from walking around in her heels. She froze in her place as she felt someone loom over her and her breath hitched when she felt a slight gush of air flow towards her in a desperate yet rhythmic pace. The stranger that loomed over gently removed her arm from her eyes and she squinted; successfully attempting to re-adjust her eyes due to the drastic change of lighting and she couldn't help but gasp to find out that the mystery person himself was none other than Kuuga who was drenched in sweat and was slightly crouched to catch his breath.

"S...Sorry Sakura... I... I had something... planned... but th...there was a photo shoot.. that I.. didn't... know about... I'm really... sorry" he kept huffing between his speech and Sakura couldn't help but release a giggle, he flashed her a grateful smile as she sat up and gave him room to sit along side her.

"It's okay.. I guess it must be hard for you, don't worry about me okay? If anything pops up about your work don't be afraid to message if you can't come or you're going to be late." Sakura gave him a bubbly smile and she felt relieved and happy that he had looked for her and had told her in person. They both sat in a comfortable silence as they watched the sun slowly go down, as if allowing them to have more time with each other before they had to part. The pinkette smile and leaned against the back of the bench slightly humming to herself; She didn't expect Kuuga to suddenly lay his head on her lap which she released a gasp as well as a warm giggle from her. He smiled and grabbed one of her hands, situating it on his stomach and he closed his eyes listening to her as she started to hum one of his many songs which managed to elicit a rare, gentle smile from him.

"I love you."

Sakura's humming paused as she tried to process the statement and she looked down to see Kuuga staring at her, she started to blush profusely and looked towards the sky as he didn't look away.

"Look at me."

She got redder at the statement and kept her flushed gaze up to the sky.

"Please."

She slowly looked down to meet his eyes and saw that she wasn't the only one who was flustered; his cheeks were tinted a bright red and his lips were slightly quivering.

"I really do love you." and with that statement he slowly got up so that he was eye level with her and carefully leaned in. Their kiss was sweet and passionate and it made both of their hearts accelerate and they eventually had to break away too to embarrassment of public affection and the lack of air, and it didn't help for the fact that an elderly couple had passed and had stated towards them.

"Ahh~ young love, their hearts as pure as gold~"

"They are such an adorable couple, I remember when we used to be that young; seems like yesterday"

The now flushed couple had finally decided on cuddling as they watch the sun that had yet to set, flustered and happy they fed off each others warmth as a gush of cold air briskly swept passed them, and after what was deemed as a couple of hours, which was in fact a couple of minutes, Sakura had spoken up.

"Ne, Kuuga-kun.."

"Y-yes?"

"I really love you too."
