*Sakura's POV*

Let me tell you, Christmas preparations are exhausting.

My day started with eating anmitsu and then being thrown with the decorations to turn this house into a real Christmas palace.

It's my fault, I volunteered last night, since I love the Christmas. But I didn't know it would be so tiring!

Last night, I've spent the evening with my family, we played some games and watched Kai's favourite movies.

My family returned to Konoha a week ago.

Which means, it's been a month since my incident with Sasuke.

It's been a month since I started reciprocating his feelings and believe me, letting my heart out of the cage wasn't the easiest case.

All the time, whenever I was near Sasuke, my heart would started skipping beats, even with the slightest contact, my cheeks would flush and I would start stuttering.

I stuttered even worth then Hinata does!

Ino and the girls would laugh at me and tease me but mainly, I tried to ignore it.

Naruto noticed this things to.

Naruto. Naruto noticed!

Which means, Sasuke noticed too!

This will be so awkward! I rejected Sasuke and a week after I started returning feelings! I let my heart escape, I let it love Sasuke and know I'm in complete awkwardness!

Sasuke probably hates me! I'm such a horrible person! I hurt him and know I have a hope that he still loves me? No way!

Anyways, as I was saying, I was decorating the house with my brother. Right now I'm standing on the ledder, trying to put ribbons on the chandelier.

Last time I was on the ledder, it resulted me to fall down and Sasuke to catch me.

Quite romantic, huh? It was horrifying!

I was so scared that I'm surprised I still climbed on the ledder again.

"Big sister, where should I put these?" Kai asked me, he was holding another box of ribbons.

"Put them on the chair, I'll take them when I get down." I asnwered and he did as I said.

"Can I go and help daddy? Or do you need my help?" He asked with his blue eyes gleaming with hope.

"Sure, you can go. I only need to finish this and then I'll send the invitations." I said with a smile and he happily ran away.

Oh, how much I love my baby brother! He's so cute! We have the same pink hair but unlike me, he has blue eyes like dad. I've got the same eye color as mom.

After I finished decorating the chandelier, I started sending invitations.

Mom wanted to have a little gathering on the Christmas night. She hasn't seen her friends in years and she missed them a lot, so did dad.

When I came up with the Uchiha's invitation, I kind of hesitated.

What if Sasuke won't come? What if he's super angry and hurt from what I said? How am I gonna face him and confess everything to him tonight?

'Get a hold of yourself pinky!' my oh-so-smart inner showed up.

'It's not that easy! Knowing Sasuke, he might 'hn' and ignore me whole evening. I can't take that!'

'He won't. He loves us. Besides, his inner's pretty eager to see us.' she said nonchalantly.

'How the hell do you know it, shannaro?!'
