The two of you sat in the car, as the driver headed off towards your house. You sat on one side of the car, and Sasuke on the other. Between you and the onyx-eyed male was a bag, filled with a few of his belongings. Soon enough, the car stopped in front of a house. The two of you got out of the car, which quickly drove off. Sasuke whistled, as the two of you observed.
The house was a one storey, but impressive all the same. There was a neatly mowed lawn, spotted with fallen blossoms from a cherry blossom tree. There was a cobblestone pathway leading to the front door. Each side of the path was a very fine looking hedge, trimmed into simple rectangular shapes. The house itself was simple, and looked very welcoming. You both walked up to the door, and Sasuke pulled out the key that had been given to them, and unlocked the front door.
The two of you were welcomes by the sweet aroma of lavender essence. You had entered into a corridor, lit by fancy looking lights on the wall. Sasuke, having dropped his bag of belongings onto the floor, announced that he was going to check out the house. "You should take a look around too, seeing as you're going to be living here for the next- who knows how long you'll be here. Anyways, meet back in the kitchen in 10 minutes."
Before she could protest, he had left and gone down the hall, deeper into the house.
"H-Hey! Sasuke! Come back!" you called out after him, but he was long gone. With a sigh, you made your way down the hall. After checking out a couple of rooms, you made your way to the kitchen, and claimed your seat by the table. You let yourself slouch, and soon the silence around you was interrupted by light footsteps, echoing down the halls.
"don't slouch, it's bad for your posture," Sasuke noted, as he came into the kitchen, only glancing at your position. You groaned and glared at him, sitting back up.
"well, it's just like the lady said. There's only one bed in the whole house." he crouched down and poked his head into some of the cupboards, finally standing up and withdrawing his hand, a cup dangling from his long fingers. He then proceeded to open the fridge and brought out a carton of orange juice, pouring himself a cup.
"What?! She expects us to sleep in the same bed?!" you exclaimed. Sure, you heard Tsunade when she said it the first time back at HQ, but she couldn't have been serious… could she?
Sasuke stays silent, drinking his orange juice. Then, dropping his cup into the sink with a clatter, he sighed. "you know what, go change into one of those dresses that baa-chan said were available."
"why…? And does is have to be a dress?"
"yes, it does. Or, a skirt at the very least. If I'm stuck with you, for who knows how long, and we're supposed to be engaged, we might as well get to know each other and act like it." he explained. Still not comprehending, you raised an eyebrow.
"how oblivious can you get… we're going out for dinner." He stated bluntly.
"you could've just said that in the first place…" you grumbled, sulking down the hallway. You navigated your way to the master bedroom (although, it was the only room with a bed) and flung the closet door open. Expecting to find some very girly dress that were 2 inches from revealing your panties, you couldn't help but let your jaw drop. There wasn't a single short dress. There were knee length dresses, a few mid-thighs, some skirts, and a lot of jeans and shorts.
He said it had to be a dress or skirt, right…? After flicking through a few choices, you picked out a simple button-up collared-top and a black skirt. You tucked the top into the skirt, and checked yourself out in the mirror.
"oh my gosh…" you gaped at your hair which had become really messy. Quickly undoing it, you started to brush it, bottom up. This way, your hair was untangled painlessly. You braided your hair over your shoulder in a fish-braid.
The sound of someone knocking on the door startled you.
"Are you done yet?" Sasuke's impatient voice penetrated the wooden door.
"Give me two minutes! Jesus…" you rolled your eyes, and quickly scavenged the closet for a pair of shoes. Finally deciding on a pair of ankle high boots, you slipped them on and opened, the door. You yelped, having walked right into Sasuke's chest.
He simply rolled his eyes, and pushed u aside, making his way into the room. A few minutes later, he emerged in a black button up top, and red skinny jeans. You gulped, taking in the site before you. He was, in all honesty, hot.
"Done staring, yet? We've a dinner to attend," he said, already making his way to the front door.
"H-Hey! Wait up, Sasuke!" you quickly catch up to him, as he held the door open for you. You mumbled a quick thank you, as he locked the doors behind you.
"So, how are we getting there? We aren't- we aren't walking the whole way there, are we?" you stopped, the thought dawning on you.
"dumbass, of course not. We're driving.." he sighed, lifting a finger, and that's when you noticed the garage.
The two of you make your way to the garage, which opened at the click of a button, revealing a black Maserati. Sasuke, who seemed pleased by the car choice, hoped in the driver's seat, and you in the front passenger's seat. Without a word, Sasuke drove out of the drive way and onto the road
Hey guys!
Sorry I haven't updated in so long…
I know this isn't a very long chapter, but I promise the next chapter or two will be worth it.
I've a lot going on right now, so I won't be able to update once a week. Hopefully I'll update within a fortnight, but im not sure. Sorry, guys!
