My mind went from calm to frantic really quick the next morning I woke up. I had forgotten that I had stayed at Naruto's apartment yesterday.

Today was Sunday, meaning Naruto didn't have work this early.

I tried to make as little motion as possible as I rolled over to see Naruto sleeping beside me in his bed. My eyes widened, I hoped he hadn't tried anything sneaky while I was sleeping. I must've been tired, I slept all through the evening into the next morning. Wanting to sneak out without waking him, I slowly moved off the bed, tip-toed over to the other side of the room, slowly turned the door knob, and creaked open the door.

Naruto moaned, the small hairs on the back of my neck stood up. I looked back to see if he was waking. He still looked asleep.

I opened the door the rest of the way, and was able to escape back outside. I felt like we had had a one night stand and I was doing the "walk of shame" back to my apartment. It angered me, even though nothing happened.

I was able to get ahold of a taxi to drive me back to my place. It was almost noon when I returned home. I still felt weird and wasn't sure about my relationship with Naruto, I decided to leave him a text to keep things "stable".

"Thanks for taking care of me yesterday."

Because it was a Sunday, I decided to go shopping, hoping many people wouldn't be out. I tried some more home stores for decorations. There were some interesting things, I ended up buying a weird, fat, little cat figure. Although, I had no idea where I'd put it. Leaving the store, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket.

It was a text from Naruto: "Haha, you're welcome!" Followed up by: "Do you have anything your doing today? Do you want to stop by Starbucks, I've got a surprise for you!"

I was curious what the surprise could be, so I started towards Naruto's work place. Once I arrived, I sat at our usual table. I waited to see Naruto, but he wasn't at the front counter. I text him: "I'm here."

I suddenly saw Naruto out of the corner of my eyes, I looked over, he was switching shifts it seemed. A lot more people were here today. I attempted to wave; however, he didn't notice me. I didn't walk up to him incase I may be interfering with his work.

I waited until he wasn't taking orders. "Hey," I spoke quietly as I approached him. "Oh, Sasuke, hey! Sorry I was a little busy," He explained. "That's okay," I assured him, "... What was it you were going to surprise me with?" "Oh, yeah, just a minute."

He left into a back room and returned with two tickets in his hand. He gave one to me. "I received these from a coworker who no longer needed them. They are playing the movie tonight, it's a romantic comedy though... So, you don't have to go. I just didn't want to go alone, but I couldn't refuse the offer."

"Uh...," I thought about it, "Sure, I mean, I don't have anything better to do."

"Okay, cool... It starts at 7:30 tonight. We could meet up at the doors?"

"Yeah, that'll work..."

It was a little awkward going with him to see a romantic comedy, but maybe it would be fun. After leaving the shop, I became very nervous once I realized this could be considered a date. I mean, he DID kiss me, this could be his way of asking me on a date.

Maybe he purposely bought romantic comedies ticket for the two of us and he didn't receive them from a coworker.

My palms were sweaty.

At home, I looked up the title of the movie on my laptop. "You have got to be kidding me!" I yelled aloud.

Tonight was the premiere, meaning a lot of other couples would be there. It was going to be so embarrassing, but I would feel bad if I dropped out now.

I would have to do my best to make it not seem like a date.
