Borusara: Should I?

chapter 3

It took hours before Boruto even realize that was almost sunset. Sarada look at the window to tell the time

"Shouldn't you be going now? Instead of lazily laying there, you should start walking your ass off to your house, you know!" 

"Tch. Stop nagging, won't you invite me to dinner?" Refusing to stand up, burying his head to a small pillow

"I won't be having dinner here, I have to come home tonight to visit mom and dad..."

He looks back to her with a grin "then we'll head out the same time!"

She never utters a word and just sighs for a few moments, "You know, we can't always be like this?"

The confusion was the only expression he let go from his face, "what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that... we can't go on like this, you are now near adulthood. Stop being so childish and go home, do as you were told" softly she said it, making Boruto stunned in return

He just blinks there, shakes his head, and stood "well, I never listen to my old man, but I'll always listen to you!" he said smiling

Her face shows a light blush and smiles at him. Not long after that, she pushes him towards the door

"Okay, okay! I will go!"

Still smiling as he bent down, putting his shoes in. As soon as he stood, he reaches for the door handle

"Boruto..." he heard her from behind

"Yeah?" He replied while turning to see her

He expected something from her, at least something he never expects... He didn't know what this feeling of eagerness to know something, but... what is it?

She stares at his blue eyes, deeply that she thought she was drowning beneath the sea, but she can't drown that long since there's someone who owns that sea, who own that eyes, and who owns that man

"... Just keep this a secret, please?" She pleaded, her words were soft that he felt that he melted

He gave a wide grin that almost he closes his eyes from grinning "I will Believe it!" And he rushes out from the door

Looking at the corner where Boruto just stood a while ago, feeling lonely again "what's the point?... I cannot own anything that I wish to have, it'll bring dismay that will only cause me to grieve more... what can I expect to a dream in which can only be compared to expectation rather than reality?!... it's of course, harsh to me but... you can only realize that there's no beauty in a mere fantasy... Life's too complicated" she said to herself, feeling a little bit down

On the other side of the grieving Sarada, left Boruto a huge confusing atmosphere surrounding him

I thought that she was going to say something or make me accompany her a little more... heh! What can we expect from the Uchiha heiress, I'm just too assuming to what was she really wanted to say!

While lost in thoughts, he felt a hand hug him from behind. It was so soft and little when he touches it

"Sumire, you're too clingy!" Boruto giggle

He turns to face her, only to find her pouting against him "Can't I at least act all cute towards my 'boyfriend,' cause I know I have the rights thou!"

He patted her head gently "Well, at least restrain yourself in public"

"I don't wanna!"

"Can't stop you, can I?" He gave a sweet smile

"No!" She tiptoe stand and kiss him on his cheek

Sumire thought that he'll return a kiss to her lips but was stunned when he gives a gentle kiss on her forehead. Touches his mark above her eyes, she blinks. Boruto didn't notice Sumire's surprise look as he was to busy thinking where to go now

"Shall I walk you to your apartment?" He asks always grinning

She left that confusing moment and return to the present "Hai!" And they started to march downtown

***

"I'm home!" Called Boruto from the door

"Welcome home!" His Mom greeted from the kitchen

"Onii-chan!" Himawari runs towards him, always greeting him with a hug "you came a bit late than usual, ya' know?!"

"Ah, sorry. I was dropping S-" before she could finish his sentence he was interrupted

"Ahh!!! Onii-chan and Sarada-oñesan are dating now?" Her eyes brighten with excitement

Well, of course, his kid sister still hasn't yet know that he was dating Sumire, Although, his dad and friends knew about it except for his mom and sister, bet his mother have a hint in his actions but couldn't care less because he has the right to decide after all

"Eh, ah No! I was dropping a friend to her house, and that's Sumire!" Waving his hand, gesturing a 'No' to her

"Ohh..." she kinda looks disappointed hearing that his brother wasn't dating her Ideal sister-in-law or what she thought since young

"Dinner's ready in a minute!" Hinata called

"Coming!" Both replied and walk towards the living room

***

The next day, sparring at the training ground with chocho. Loud cling could be heard from both kunai as it collides with one another, and quickly detached by pulling it out from practically being connected in a short time. Giving a wide space between Sarada and Chocho

Still panting, both hands were on her knees, bending a little "You're so aggressive today, what hit you?"

On the opposite side from her, the same position was Sarada in "I just wanna get serious in all this, sorry if I was kinda hard on you"

"Nah, I know you won't go extreme!"

They both giggle while surprisingly a chunin teen suddenly appeared beside Sarada which made her jump a little

"Sarada-chan," the young chunin began

"Hey!" She said in unison

"I'm here to deliver a message address to you from the 7th Hokage, He wants to summon you to his office at once!"

"Just me?" She was stunned when she was summoned without her two teammates as they were the trio in everything. Constantly the young chunin nods and flew away

Chocho who came to her, raise her one brow "that's kinda unexpected... well," she pats her friend's shoulder "you better get going then!"

"Yeah..." she just stood there yet won't make a move

"I better go somewhere to eat something, bye!" Walk away from her motionless friend to get herself done with her deal

Why was I summon? And only me! I bet it will be big since the Lord Hokage doesn't want his son interfering in this... well, better get going!

And then all she ever did was walk towards the Hokage tower
