Hello everyone! It's been a really long time since I've looked at this story and I apologize for that! I started writing this story when I was 15 years old (and very cringe worthy) and now three years later I've been craving to start writing again! I can't wait to get back into this story and I hope you enjoy!
Sakura's Point of View:
I woke up the next morning feeling a little groggy. I rolled over in my bed to check the time and it was already 9:30. This is the first time I've slept in since I got here.
I slipped out of bed and didn't even bother brushing my hair or changing out of my pajamas. I headed towards the stairs and made my way down to have breakfast.
When I reached the bottom of the stairs and turned the corner into the kitchen, I was surprised to find all of the boys already at the table eating. I'm usually the first one up on weekends.
Neji was the first to notice me come in. I watched as he tried to suppress the grin that was creeping onto his face. I raised a questioning brow and he just shook his head.
The rest of the boys soon noticed I was there and they seemed to find something extremely amusing. Naruto had burst out into full on laughter. I began to sign frantically,
'What's so funny? I don't understand why you're laughing.'
Shikamaru had a lazy smirk on his face and he signed,
'Sakura did you look at yourself this morning before you left your room? You have quite a bad case of bed head.'
I reached my hands into my hair and began to comb my fingers through it, only to be met with knots. I felt a blush crawling onto my cheeks as I fiddled with my hair.
Kiba began to sign,
'Get that blush off your face Sak, this is your house too! You're allowed to look a little disheveled whenever you want.'
His silly grin and the other boys nodding heads reassured me and I took a seat between Sasuke and Shino.
Sasuke ruffled my hair as I sat down. This was his way of saying good morning. I patted his cheek in response. I looked over at Naruto to see him whining.
'Sakura-chan! You and Sasuke are always having these secret conversations and no one knows what's going on. I want to have a special language with you.'
I shook my head and smiled. I signed to him,
'Don't worry Naruto, we can come up with one sometime.'
He smiled and went back to eating his breakfast. I ate and the rest of the boys finished up. Everyone was discussing their plans for the day and it seemed like everyone was doing something different. Shino and Kiba were going to hang out with Hinata, while Neji was spending the day with Tenten, Shikamaru was going out to lunch with his friend Choji and Ino. That left Sasuke, Naruto, and I alone in the house.
Out of all the boys in our house I got along the easiest with Naruto and Sasuke. It always seemed like one of them was by my side. They were my boys and I felt comfortable around them, even though most of the time they were at each others throats. I usually played peacemaker and kept them from breaking things around the house.
'Well boys, what's on the agenda today?'
I signed at the only two left at the table.
Sasuke shrugged his shoulders and Naruto's eyes lit up with excitement. Naturo began quickly signing,
'Today we should bond by playing a friendly game of Mario Kart!'
There was no way Sasuke was going to agree, but Naruto turned it into a challenge so obviously Sasuke had to accept. We found ourselves squished together on the couch. Sasuke to my left and Naruto to my right. The air was tense as we started the first race. The boys always were a little too competitive. I could feel Naruto shouting at my side as he fell behind both Sasuke and I. I smiled at the two boys who were both getting up and moving closer to the TV.
It felt really nice to be around people who know how I felt and were so similar to myself. It really had been an incredible experience so far. I made so many friends and I have a feeling Naruto and Sasuke won't be leaving my side for a while.
I saw Sasuke smirk and took a peek at his screen to see a blue shell. Naruto had pulled ahead to first place and he was in for a rude awakening. The moment Naruto saw the blue shell coming, he collapsed to the floor in defeat. Sasuke was too far behind to catch up to first so I came out victorious. I smirked at the boys who both had defeat written on their faces.
Naruto began signing, 'Teme I could have finally won this time! You had to wreck it.'
Sasuke shook his head and signed, 'It's not like I won anyways Dobe.'
I reached out for a high five from them both, which I received but I could tell Naruto was still sulking. I patted Naruto's head and signed that I was headed to my room to relax for a little bit.
They both nodded and Naruto mentioned he was going to go meet up with Kiba, Shino, and Hinata.
I sat in my room for maybe half an hour before Sasuke came in. He laid down on the bed next to me and signed,
'I kind of like your hair all messed up.'
I rolled to face him and smiled.
'You're so silly, my hair is definitely not nice like this. I can't even get the knots out yet. It was kind of nice staying in my pajamas all day though.'
Sasuke turned to face me and ran his hand through my hair. It was so soothing I couldn't help but let my eyes slide shut. I leaned over to kiss his cheek as a thanks and soon found myself sleeping.
Sasuke's Point of View:
I ran my hand through Sakura's tangled hair as she kissed my cheek and snuggled closer into her pillow. I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel anything for her. Her sweet demeanor and kind attitude would draw anyone in, but everything about her kept dragging me in further. The smell of her hair when she was close, the way she always found a way to keep things lighthearted, the way she got a small blush when she was embarrassed.
I was starting to care a little too much and I surprised myself when I felt jealous at the thought of her having a special language with Naruto. It was our thing and it was like having our own little world. She'd somehow unexpectedly wiggled her way into my life since the first day we met. But she can't hear and I can't speak, we were a match made in heaven.
Sorry that this hasn't been updated in so long but I really hope everyone likes this chapter! I'm so excited to keep writing!
