Sasunaru- Matters of the heart

Chapter 8

Take the time

Take the time to listen

To my heartbeat. Listen

Carefully as it screams out

Your name across the world.

Take the time to look deep

Into my eyes. See the way

I see the world, the universe

And you each day and night.

Take the time to count

My thoughts, not my tears.

Count each worry, each fear

I have for you.

Take the time to walk

In my shoes. Take each

Foot step as a journey to a

Lifelong memory.

Take the time to feel what I feel.

Each feeling is what gives

Me the reason to live and love you

More than ever.

Take the time to listen, look,

Count my thoughts and not my tears, walk

And feel... then maybe you'll understand me.

Naruto Pov

I was watching TV as Sasuke prepared diner in the kitchen. 'Whatever it is, it sure smells nice.' I thought as I watched idols play on TV. "Dinners ready!" He said. I turned off the TV and went into the dining room. "It sure smells nice." I said, he pulled a seat back for me to sit on and pushed the chair in once I was on it. I look on the table and was awe struck.

'No wonder why he took so long.' I thought, Rose petals scattered onto the table, soft romantic music played in the background and unscented candles were lit. He had taken in the pleasure to create a romantic atmosphere. "You sure know how to be romantic for a cold basted." I teased. He chuckled at my comment. He had prepared stake, stir-fried with shrimp. He poured wine in two glasses for me and himself. He handed me my glass and walked over to his seat.

I took a bite of my meal and moaned out at the taste. "Ow my God, Sasuke your food taste like it was sent from heaven." I said as I took another bite out of my meal. He chuckled, "What can I say when you're good your good." He said with a smug look on his face. "Don't be cocky Uchiha, I'll have you know I'm twice as good as you." I said narrowing my eyes at him. He smirked. "Challenge accepted." He said with amusement lingering in his voice.

We talked about random things as we ate our dinner. "No... you're lying." I looked at him in disbelief. "It's true... I ended up with detention for a joke that went horribly wrong." He said. "Well it serves you right. I would have done the same thing, only difference would be I would have killed you for putting a snake in my bag, deadly or not." I said as I took a sip of my wine. He shrugged and smirked. "The teacher was asking for it." He stood up and he walked over to me. Extending his hand to me with a soft smile on his face. "May I have is dance?" He said. "I don't know can you." I asked looking him in the eyes he chuckled. Taking one of my hands and pulling me up gently.

"H-hay wa-wait, I can't dance." I said as I tried to escape his hold. "Then I'll just have to teach you." He said placing one hand on my waist and used his other hand to guide one of my hands on his shoulder. He then to my other hand into his and we started to move according to the song. We look each other in the eyes as a light blush crossed my checks. I became trapped looking deep within his dark eyes. When the song came to an end he leaned in and gave me a kiss.

He pulled back and smirked. "Guess this makes us official what do you think Naruto. Want to be by my side." He asked. "Were I want to be Uchiha is where I should be. In your arms and in your heart. Is where I should be." I said and kissed him. 'No I am not hypnotized by Sasuke, I just so happen to fall in love with him.'
