Day 9 of visitation-
The streets of Konoha moaned like the wind as it came to meet Sakura Haruno. The light breezes made her somewhat relieved in the scalding summer month. On her way to Konohagakure prison, Sakura carried a cranberry-colored envelope in hand, with Sasuke's name encrusted on the backside.
Finally reaching the well-secured prison, she entered the darkened, stone building. Finding herself startled by the heat, Sakura swiped the sweat from her hardened temple, and sighed. Walking into the jailed area, Sakura greeted a different guard who watched over the Uchiha's cell. The Haruno eyed Sasuke's cell with soften emerald orbs. Looking stoic as ever, Sasuke stood, finally recognizing the pink haired kunoichi waiting outside his lonely room.
"Hello Sakura," Sasuke smirked between the bars that kept him from the outside world.
She smiled shyly before opening her pouty lips to speak. "Hello Sasuke kun." She softly spoke, with her gentle orbs staring back at him happily.
The Uchiha grinned realizing she had added the suffix with his name, something he hadn't heard for quite sometime. Finally opening the cell door, Sasuke walked alongside Sakura towards the empty table.
"How are you?" Sakura had asked as both of them sat down.
"I've been better," Sasuke admitted. He leant back into his seat, with a tired expression spread across his face.
"I'm sorry to hear that." The Haruno answered, eying him compassionately. She nervously gripped the envelope in her hand, as they continued to talk.
Catching his eye, Sasuke dropped his gaze to the cranberry-colored object in Sakura's petite hand.
"What's that?" He said motioning towards the envelope.
"Oh, this?" Sakura shyly responded. "This is for you." She hesitantly handed it to him, and while doing so a light, pink blush embedded onto her flushed cheeks. Sasuke stared absentmindedly at the envelope. Turning it around, he eyed the embroidery that spelled out his name.
About to open it, Sakura graced her hands with his, and stared at him embarrassingly. "Don't open it yet." The Haruno spoke, her voice shrill.
"Why not?" The Uchiha replied with an arched eyebrow.
"Please, just wait." She pouted while staring innocently at him.
"Alright," He said disappointedly. Sasuke tucked the envelope in his pocket, and sighed.
Sakura smiled graciously. Lifting her gaze, the pink haired kunoichi eyed the dark haired Uchiha realizing more of his sculpted chest was peaking through the light summer kimono he had wore for today. She couldn't help but stare a gape as beads of sweat trickled down his calloused skin. Sakura stared in aw, as the July heat made his skin glisten.
July-"July," She thought to herself. Going through the dates in her head, she had realized today was 21st of July. Sasuke's birthday was only in two days.
"What a way to spend your birthday," Sakura thought to herself. The pink haired kunoichi then frowned, which earned a look from the coal haired Uchiha.
"What's the matter?" Sasuke had asked with a concerned look.
"Your birthday is in two days." She had replied, feeling sympathy.
"Why does that make you sad?" He had asked in confusion.
"You have to spend it here." Sakura cried, with melancholy orbs.
Sasuke just shrugged. "It doesn't bother me." He replied nonchalantly.
Surprised, the pink haired kunoichi wondered if that's how he really felt. Nobody wants to spend his or hers birthday in prison. Not even Sasuke.
Finding herself staring temptingly back at the Uchiha, Sakura marveled at his muscled body once again, not being able to help herself. His arm muscles rippled through the fabric of his clothing, and this triggered her vivid imagination. Who knows how he kept his forearms so well built, so muscled. Catching the Uchiha's attention, Sasuke stared at the Haruno in amusement.
"Like what you see?" He said, triggering her back into reality.
"Er, What?" She replied with a soft blush emitting on her angelic face.
He had caught her staring provocatively at him, and she couldn't deny that yes, she absolutely did like what she saw. She had always liked what she saw. Hell, he made her feel like a horny little schoolgirl, every time he was around her.
Sasuke chuckled at her surprised facial expression. " I have to admit, I like what I see too," He said with perverted grin. He stared sinisterly across the table, adverting his fiery eyes in her direction. Sakura shuttered, as he looked her up and down as if she was something delectable to eat. The Haruno's face had turned a bright crimson, asking herself "Did he actually just say that?"
Suddenly, the room grew quiet, until Sasuke broke the silence.
"Hey Sakura." The Uchiha spoke hoarsely. He brought his calloused fingertips to her chin, and slowly lifted her face to look at him. "Thanks again for coming."
She smiled shyly before nodding her head. Both of them continued to talk, and reminisce about the old days. Until, to both of their disappointments, the guard appeared reminding Sasuke that his time was up for today. Sasuke sighed, before scooting his chair back slowly. Sakura slowly walked towards him, before saying her goodbye. To her surprise,
Sasuke pulled her into his embrace, and hugged her goodbye.
