(Sakura's POV):

The wind howls and the show begins.
My attention solely on the fireworks in front of me.
Anxiety melts away and my nerves are still.

Illuminating the sky, resounding in the distance.

Sasuke's arm grazes against my own, every muscle in my body taut.
His sable eyes shoot me an unexpected glance.

"I'm sorry." His voice, low and sincere.

Once the fireworks began, I had entirely forgotten Sasuke's existence.

Unable to focus, my mind begins to wonder.

He hasn't said much.. It makes me feel somewhat uneasy.

(Sasuke's POV):

The fireworks begin and the obnoxious chatter ceases.

Everyone's attention now focused on the radiant colors ahead.

Including one person in particular.

Sakura.

Her cerulean eyes gleam brilliantly.

Shuffling into a more comfortable position, my arm sweeps against her's.

Snatching away, eyes downcast, she seems anxious.
If not, inferior.

She's right here. Yet, I don't know what to say..

(Sakura's POV):

The wind sweeps my hat into the water.

"Ah!"

Dancing toward the ocean, bending, in attempt to grab it, the wind roars, carrying my hat farther.

Grumbling in frustration, I step moderately, slipping.

"Shit!" I hiss, soaking wet.

Rising, I take a moment to wring out the bottom of my sweater.
Removing the srunchies that fastened my hair.

An arm extends in front of me, scooping the hat from the water.

Needless to say, It's Sasuke.

Prancing to shore, clenching onto the hat, he shoves it in front of me.

"Here." His voice is murmurous.

"Thanks.."

A few seconds feels like an eternity, as they pass.

Though my head says "Now or never.", my heart is reluctant, but my lips move on their own.

"I just can't forget you Sasuke.." I mutter.

Silence between us, as the booming cry of fireworks continues.

Glancing in his direction, the shocked expression on his face catches me off guard.

"I'm sorry." The words slip from my mouth naturally.

"No. It's--." He pauses momentarily. "...Sad enough to say, I miss you Sakura."

My eyes widen gradually, as my body trembles faintly.

(Sasuke's POV):

"I just can't forget you Sasuke.." Her voice is small.

Shocked, I'm unable to process my thoughts.
