Something Better Than A Kiss

Chapter 3

Sakura's POV

This is totally awkward.

I'm in his shirt, and he is shirtless as we walk towards where he instates. He said that I should spend the night at his place because he won't let me walk alone to mine wet and cold. He also has curfew. I don't even know if that is necessary. I guess Kakashi-Sensei just wants something to protect his ass from questions about Sasuke's freedom.

I look at him carefully, he reay changed a lot ever since that stubborn day of mine. His hair seems longer, muscles are evident all over his body, and his aura became different, unlike in the past. He also got taller. I think he is going to notice my attention so I immediately look away as I feel his pair of onyx eyes lay on my appearance. Somehow, I feel small and ugly because this tall and gorgeous man has his eyes on me.

I hate to admit it but yeah, I still find him good-looking. The silence breaks when he speaks, "Sakura, the things I told you after Naruto and I fought, they are all true. I meant every word I said".

I breathe in all oxygen I could get. "Yeah, I know". After all this time though, I still feel the hard thump of my heart when he talks to me. We arrive at the manor and... WOW, it is really huge! He comes in and says nothing so I follow him. My attention cathches the stain on the floor. They must be his parent's blood. His gaze is on me when I look up at him. He seems hurt for a bit and I don't know why but I say, "Gomen". He says nothing again and then goes to what looks like his room. I can't help but peek inside. He flicks the light switch. His blue and white mattress comes to vission. His bed is very neatly arranged. Pillows and blankets are in the right places. The dresser has quite a size too. Cabinet doors are polished and the window as well, reflecting the darkness outside the manor. His room is really big, like the pride of his clan.

He walks to his dresser and opens the cabinet door. My eyes wander around even more, trying to get a nice view of his house. It's too big for one person to live in and too much for a perdon who is always out.

Then his voice interupts my enviousness. "Here". He holds out a shirt and a pair of sweat pants.

"Arigato" I say.

"The bathroom inside is the only available. All the others in house are dirty" he says. All the others? He means there are many other bathrooms? I've never been to a house this big. Well, not anymore.

His bath area is also huge obviously. There's a shower and a tub, the walls were tiled and as well as the flooring. My lips can't help but open. There are also several towels at a side table at the corner of the washroom. I must say I'm impressed of how clean his manor is.

I get out of the bathroom. The shirt and pants sure are pretty big for me. I put the fabric of his shirt on my nose and smell the good scent of Uchiha Sasuke. Sasuke enters the room with a pillow and a blanket. He has clothes on now and he says nothing as he hands me the pillow and blanket but his lips form a small smirk. He turns to leave but right before he fully exits the room he says "Sleep well, Sakura" with his back in front of me.

My adolescent self kicks in again. My fingers touch my heating face andy lips form a grin. Damn it!

Sasuke's POV

After seeing her in my clothes, I can't help but feel something tingly that I couldn't understand. She just...just looks perfect in my clothes. I honestlt don't know what's wrong with me. I can't keep my lips for twitching.

I shake my thoughts away. Maybe I'm just sleepy. I peek at my now dark room. Hn. I close my eyes as drowsiness gets me. Right before I fall deeper, I see pink locks, emerald eyes and red lips.
