Sasuke arrived to his destination and gently placed Akeno down. He noticed that she looked a bit light headed from the teleportation which makes sense since it was more than likely her first time traveling like that.

"Hn the dizziness may last for a few more minutes, but you'll be alright." He said as he analyzed her to see if she was okay.

"Thank you..for saving me." Akeno said as she placed fingers on her head and rubbed her temple. "But why are we at a library?" She asked with confusion.

"Well..to read. I need information on a couple of things." He answered. He realized that Akeno looked a bit malnourished and didn't want her to pass out or anything of that sort.

Fortunately the library had a restaurant beside it so he figured that they could take a quick detour. After all, it's been a while since he'd had real food himself after being imprisoned for so long.

"Follow me." He said as he led the way to the restaurant and Akeno paused for a second, but then followed after him.

"You don't have to.." She said with incertitude. She wasn't used to such kindness from someone she just met. Usually when this type of situation happened, the other person had bad intentions and wanted something in return.

"Consider it a gesture to get us acquainted." The Last Uchiha said before holding the front door for her. He remembered being taught chilvary from a young age by his Mother. She would've been upset at him if he didn't do something like this.

Akeno let out a small genuine smile as she could tell that he was being honest and didn't expect anything in return. This is the first time she had smiled in a long long time. The last time she did was when her Mother was alive. It actually felt nice to do so.

"Okay Sasuke and thank you again." She said as she walked in the restaurant. She noticed that he held the door for her and thought he was sweet for doing so.

Sasuke nodded and followed in after her.

-Cutscene-

When he said that Akeno could get anything she wanted because he would use his Dojutsu to trick the waiter into thinking he had paid for the food, he didn't expect for her to get well..

Everything

She paused her eating and looked at him with her mouth full. "..What?" She asked, wondering why he was staring at her like that.

Sasuke slightly smirked at her. "Nothing..nothing at all." He said and looked down at his own food.

It was two of his most favorite foods. Tomato soup and onigiri.

He smelled the two deliciousness in front of him.

A genuine smile emerged on his face. 'How long has it's been?' He thought as he grabbed the spoon and took a sip of his soup.

His smile widened further. Too damn long if he did say so himself.

He felt Akeno staring at him and raised his head to see her eyes widened and a blush on her face.

He raised an eyebrow and she turned her head to the side in embarrassment.

"Akeno, who were those people after you?" He asked her with curiosity as he took another sip. He still didn't receive the memories back from his clone, so he wondered what they were up to.

Akeno's face expression immediately changed into one of dejection. She glanced at Sasuke in thought. 'I can trust him right? He haven't did anything to wrong me thus far..'

The Last Uchiha noticed her slight hesitation and change of emotion. He could understand if he was prying to soon, after all they did just recently met.

"It's okay if you don't want to te-" Akeno interrupted him.

"No..no it's alright. I can sense that you're trustworthy Sasuke." She said and offered him a slight smile. Her smile quickly disappeared. "Those people are my relatives and they tried to kill me because of my-" She suddenly paused as she looked at him with a self-conscious and insecure look.

Sasuke was silent and attentive as he listened to her. This conversation was definitely very personal to her, so he was patient.

Dozens of thoughts went through Akeno's head.

What if he hates me if I tell him I'm a Fallen Angel?

What if he tries to kill me?

What if he leaves me alone and doesn't bother with me?

What if..he doesn't like me anymore?

She then grit her teeth in anger.

She may as well tell him. Even if those things are the case, it's not like she wasn't used to it by now.

"Because of my Fallen Angel heritage." She said without hesitation and instantly looked at him for a reaction.

.

.

"Hn okay." Sasuke said simply and took a bite out of his onigiri now.

Akeno's eyes widened with surprise. "That's..it? You accept me?"

"You being a Fallen Angel doesn't determine your character. You seem to be a nice girl so far, so yes I accept you." The Last Uchiha replied. In actuality he didn't know what the hell she was talking about, but whatever made her happy he supposed.

He couldn't wait to attain information.

Akeno's heart skipped a beat at that.

'He accepts me?' She thought with disbelief.

'He accepts me!!' Her smile she smiled afterwards could have brightened up even the darkest of rooms.

She jumped over the table and hugged Sasuke tightly. "Thank you so much!" She yelled out.

Sasuke kinda felt awkward at the contact because he wasn't used to anyone being in his personal space.

A year ago he would've killed her for hugging him.

He at least rubbed her back. "It's no problem." He replied. "Let's finish eating so we can go to the library." He said.

Akeno heard him but didn't let him go. His body felt so comfortable and warm to her.

Sasuke glanced down at her and decided to let her be. After all, as foreign as hugging was to him, it did feel nice.
