Prompt: Secrets

A/N: Day 16. Better late than never

--

He was avoiding her.

He was avoiding her and she had enough. It has been two weeks since he last talked to her. At first, she decided to just give him space. However, two weeks was more than enough time for him to bask on personal space.

That's why she decided to do the first thing that came to her mind.

She stormed over to his place. She knocked so hard it was a miracle that the hinges were still intact.

The door opened and it revealed a very tired-looking Sasuke with big, black bags under his eyes.

"What?"

She placed her hands on her hips. "Why are you avoiding me?"

He froze for a second before looking passive as ever. "I don't know what you're talking about."

She glared. "Goddamnit, Sasuke!" She could feel tears forming on the corners of her eyes but she willed them away and focused on her anger. "One moment we were okay. One moment you're still talking to me. One moment you were suddenly hugging me and the next, you're avoiding me--even worse than before! When we were genin, you were avoiding everyone but that's not the way it is now! This is different, we--" she stopped. She felt her hands limping on her sides. "I just thought we were over this. I thought we were over having secrets. I thought you trust me."

She sighed, before turning around. "If this is what you want, then fine. Sorry for intruding." She was about to take a step before he grabbed her arm, pulled her closer, and hugged her from behind.

She tensed, a blush making its way to her cheeks not just because of their current position, but also because of what he said--no, growled--to her ear.

"You're making me feel something and I don't like it!"
