063: Falling

.

Sakura never understood her fierce affection that burned for Sasuke. It had come out of the desire to make his life bearable, to have someone always there for him. It was unexplainably sudden and brash. It had happened in a day: she never had time to fall in love. She just crash landed in it.

With Kakashi it was different. Slowly, through his perceptive kindness and hours of friendship, she started to realize this was what falling in love meant.

When she finally took his hand in hers and smiled, Sakura knew she had finally, comfortably arrived where she belonged.
