After they finished eating, Naruto headed outside and stretched, since she felt sore from sitting for too long. Sasuke paid for their meals and then joined Naruto outside.
Naruto walked over towards him, when she saw Sasuke, and almost instinctively wrapped her arms arounf him, resting her head on his chest. She was sleepy and tired. "Ne Sasuke, let's go home..."
Sasuke was a bit taken aback by her actions but he returned the hug. Then he decided to walk towards the apartment but Naruto tugged on his shirt, with a big pout forming on her lips.
Sasuke had no idea why she was acting like that. Naruto was blushing as well but she refused to let go of him.
"What's wrong Naru...?"
She didn't respond, instead she looked at him with bright eyes and sparkles.
'Cute ~ ' Sasuke thought.
Looking away from him, she finally let her words out "C-Carry me... like before... "
Sasuke could literally feel his heart being pierced by Cupid's arrow right then and there! He abruptly turned his head around to prevent Naruto from noticing the crimson color that rushed to his face. But unnoticed by him, Naruto was blushing red as well.
Without wasting any more time, Sasuke cleared his throat, his heart pumping fast as he picked Naruto up in his arms again. And slowly he started making his way towards the apartment.
Naruto kept her eyes shut and her arms tight around Sasuke's neck. There was a peaceful silence filling up the atmosphere around them.
"I didn't know you liked being carried often ~ " Sasuke decided to tease Naruto a bit since he wasn't sure if the peaceful silence would stay peaceful or turn awkward.
"S-Shut up teme. I just didn't want to walk, t-that's why!" Naruto immediately protested with a pout.
"If that's what you want me to believe ~ I'm fine if you don't want to accept the fact that you like being close to me, Naru ~ "
"W-Who likes being close to you, huh...? Y-You're dreaming!"
"Okay okay ~ " Sasuke teased and laughed. Once again, it was a real laugh, and true enough that only Naruto was able to bring Sasuke to laugh his heart out. She was the only one that made Sasuke feel alive. Even when she was a boy, Naruto was the only person who could bring out any kind of emotions out of Sasuke. Only him. And it's the same now as well.
Naruto was mesmerized by his laugh. He looked so fascinating right now. At once she remembered the dream she had, him kissing her. And her entire face flushed. But he was just there. So close. Just a little effort and she could claim his lips.
"Go ahead kit. Kiss him ~ "
Unconsciously, she reached out her left hand to touch Sasuke's cheek. His skin was so smooth. She caressed his face gently and a small smile formed on her lips.
Sasuke was taken aback at her actions. He kept staring at her, trying to figure out what she was doing. He felt himself getting hot for some reason.
Naruto was feeling Sasuke's facial features when her hand trailed off to his lips. Sasuke's breath hitched when he felt her tracing her thumb over his lips. He slightly parted them, wanting to say something but no words came out. Naruto kept tracing his lower lip with a small smile as she mumbled ever so lightly "Mine."
Sasuke was too deep in his thoughts on what was going on, he missed what Naruto muttered. He fixed his gaze on Naruto's eyes that were in turn fixed on his lips. Slowly, she rose her gaze and their eyes met.
