It was his eyes. Karin loved many things about Sasuke Uchiha, but it was his eyes she loved the most.
Karin looked down at him, his face nestled on her lap, where Sasuke had dozed off while reading a book. There was a loving expression on the girl's face which no one would have believed her capable of.
She gently stroked his cheeks with her finger lightly, careful not to wake him. She brushed away the messy bangs that were always on his face. No matter how much they bothered him, he would never get rid of them. She ran a hand through his hair, reveling in its baby soft texture. Heh, Sasuke would give her the famed Uchiha Glare of Death if she ever told him that.
His eyes were truly captivating. If she could she would stare into their depths all day long. Sasuke's eyes were actually a very dark brown. For some reason, brown eyes should have lessened his appeal as brown eyes were common, but for some reason they appealed to Karin.
When Sasuke got angry, those eyes would flash. His expression would betray nothing, but his eyes…his eyes said it all. Sasuke liked to believe he was unreadable and to people who didn't know him very well, he wasn't. Karin could read him and it wasn't the trivial fluctuations of chakra that betrayed his feelings. When Sasuke was happy, those eyes would turn sweet, like the darkest of dark chocolate. They would get bright and when he smiled, he looked…striking. It was also that those eyes were ringed with the longest eyelashes she had seen on a man; eyelashes that females envied. When Sasuke got sad, there was so much pain in those eyes that he would get this 'sorta kicked puppy' look. If Sasuke pouted, the look would be something to see. When Sasuke was on the verge of orgasm, his eyes would become glazed with pleasure and couple with his blushing cheeks, Karin wanted to keep him like that forever. When Sasuke was caught off guard, which seldom happened, his eyes went wide and he would look like a surprised child. Sasuke had grown up too soon. Much too soon.
She rubbed her thumb slowly over the dark circles under those eyes. Those circles stood out prominently against his pale skin. Karin wished she could rub them away; they made him look so vulnerable.
His eyes fluttered and they slowly opened, widening slightly when he noticed Karin looking at him. He was confused for merely a second before he assumed his usual expression asking, "What are you doing?'
"Thinking what long eyelashes you have," Karin sang. Sasuke's eyes widened and he blinked his mouth falling open slightly. Karin laughed.
Oh how she loved those eyes.
Drabble for zaaee. Prompt: eyes.
I really did enjoy writing this piece. Oh Sasuke, why did you have to turn so dark and cold?
I don't own a thing.
