Sarada POV
I woke up and saw that I was in my room. Weird... I swear that I remember drifting off to sleep on the couch with Boruto. I wonder if he put my in my bed after I fell asleep last night.

That's when I remembered that Boruto stayed at my place last night.

I walked out of my room to check on Boruto and when I went to the living room, he was still sound asleep. He looked so cute when he slept.

His hair was a mess, he had drool dripping down from the side of his mouth, his shirt was on the floor next to the couch, and his arms were thrown over his head while his legs were laid out straight.

I stared at him in awe and turned towards the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror and noticed that I had accidentally fallen asleep with my makeup on. My lip gloss was no longer on but my mascara was a mess. It was all around my eyes and my foundation was crumby.

I washed my face before turning on the shower. I then walked into my room so that I could grab a clean pair of clothes.

After about a minute of looking through my closet, I decided on a pair of black leggings and a navy blue hoodie with the Uchiha crest on the back. I was going for a more casual and comfortable look since I didn't really plan on going anywhere today besides the hospital to see Hima in a few hours.

I grabbed a towel out of the bathroom closet and hopped into the shower.

Once I got out, I dried myself off and went into my bedroom to change. (if you change in the bathroom after showering, you're weird) As I was walking into the hallway, I took a peak at Boruto and saw that he was still asleep.

I wonder how early it is. I haven't yet checked the time but I know that usually I wake up from the times of 7-9am. And Boruto on the other hand, he's... different.

I changed into my outfit and went back into the bathroom so that I could fix my hair and brush my teeth. My hair was dripping wet so I scrunched it with my towel after I put my hair products in.

As I was about to brush my teeth, I noticed that my hair might get in the way so I tied it up in a messy bun. After brushing my teeth, I stared at myself in the mirror.

What could I do with my hair today? I thought.

Usually I would just leave my hair down but that style just didn't seem right for the outfit that I was wearing. I decided to put my hair in a high ponytail and I went out into the kitchen to fix myself breakfast.

When I reached the kitchen, I noticed the time on the oven.

9:48am

I looked on the fridge and noticed that there was a note stuck to it. The note read, "Good morning Sarada. Your father and I left to go get breakfast alone this morning. Sorry for not taking you with us but since you were with Boruto, we figured we'd let you two spend time together. Find something to eat at the house, we'll be back at 11am. Love you!!
Love, Mom <3"

At least they left me a note so that I wasn't concerned about them. I sighed and opened the fridge door to see two avocados. Lucky for me, one of my favorite breakfasts is avocado toast.

I went into the pantry and grabbed the bread. I then went to the cupboard to grab the toaster. Once I had finished making my food, I sat down and began to eat.

I was surprised by the fact that Boruto hadn't waken up yet. Well... actually, no. I'm not surprised. Making avocado toast isn't really a loud and hard task.

While I was in the middle of eating, I felt my throat suddenly get dry. It was a sunny morning with clear skies. It was a perfect day to make my favorite drink. Iced coffee.

I grabbed all of my ingredients but when I was about to get my ice, I got nervous. The ice maker in my fridge is usually pretty loud and I didn't want to wake up Boruto this early. If I did, he would have an attitude with me for the rest of the day.

I started to get my ice as quietly as I could. I thought it was a success until I heard the dobe groan and say, "Could you be any louder?" Great. He's up.

I looked over to the living room and saw him sit up and stretch. "What time is it?" He asked. I looked over at the time and replied, "Just a minute before 10." He rolled his eyes at me and put his shirt back on.

Boruto stood up and walked over to my direction.
"What're you making? Coffee?" He said with his morning voice. God, he is so hot. "Not just any coffee. My favorite. Iced coffee." I said in response.

He went over to the pantry and grabbed the box of Frosted Flakes along with a gallon of milk from the fridge. Once he placed that on the counter, he went into the cupboard and grabbed a bowl and a spoon.

He made himself his breakfast and sat down at the table to eat his meal. I assumed that he would have something different for once but of course, Boruto ate his usual go-to breakfast meal. I continued to make my iced coffee and asked Boruto if he wanted some.

"No thanks. Coffee will disrupt your growth." He said with his morning voice. "Not true!" I exclaimed. All he did was shrug his shoulders in response and continue eating his food.

I grabbed my drink and sat down in the seat next to him so that I could finish my toast. Once we finished eating, Boruto walked over to the living room and cleaned his sleeping area.

After he was done with that, he walked over to the bathroom and I heard the water running.

Boruto POV
I decided to start getting ready since I was planning on going to the gym. I need to get my mind off of Himawari for a bit.

After the gym, I'll stop by my house and shower so that I can get ready to head to the hospital. And if I have enough money in my pocket, I'll stop at Aunt Ino's flower shop and get Hima-chan her favorite flowers.

I have my own toothbrush at Sarada's house since I used to come over all the time so I brushed my teeth and went back into the living room. When I got there, I couldn't find Sarada. I looked for her in the kitchen but she wasn't there either.

I walked into the hallway and saw that her bedroom door was slightly open. I quietly walked over to the creaked door and saw Sarada.

She was peacefully sitting on her bed, sketching a person. Usually I would find her with her nose in a book so the sight of her drawing is a bit unusual.

I opened the door a little more and leaned against it before speaking up. "Didn't know you liked to draw, Uchiha." I said to her. She chuckled and said, "Didn't know you could be so nosy, Uzumaki." I rolled my eyes at her and began to walk over to her bed.

I tried to look over at her drawing but as soon as I was about to get a glimpse of it, she hid it from me and her cheeks went pink.

"Hey! No snooping!" She exclaimed. "Whatever..." I mumbled as I walked away. I sat down on her floor, leaning against the wall and said, "I'm going to go to the gym for about an hour or so. Wanna come?"

She looked up from her drawing to face me and said, "I just showered and got dressed. Are you sure it would be a good idea for me to go to the gym now?" I rolled my eyes at her response.

"Come on! You never have any fun with me. It's just so that we can't focus on something other than Hima. And I promise that we can go see her afterwards." I said.

"Okay, fine. But I have to shower right when we come back." Sarada said in defeat. I stood up and walked over to her. She looked up at me in confusion until I held my hand out to her. "So it's a deal?" I asked. "It's a deal." She responded while gently shaking my hand.
