This was her happy place. Her sanctuary. Her home away from home. The only other person who knows about this place was her new best friend, Ino.
Until now.
Sakura hears the rustling of leaves and then the sound of a boy’s voice. Quickly, she dives underneath a blanket and clutches her stuffed rabbit.
“Hey, is this your place?”
She blinks underneath the blanket. The voice sounded somewhat familiar. Slowly, she lifts her head from underneath the pink blanket and gasps. “Sasuke-kun?”
“Oh, hey. You’re in my class. Sakura was it?”
She nods meekly as this was the first time she has ever talked to a boy before. But his eyes seem warm and friendly as he stares back at her. It is silent as they stare at each other but finally he breaks the silence again.
“I was trying to look for cosmos around here. I heard they grow near here. Is that true?”
She nods again.
“Do you know where?” he asks.
She nods and points to the outside trees.
“Over there? Can you show me?”
She didn’t really want to. That would require more social interaction than she is used to. And with a boy also. She didn’t know what to say to them. But Ino told her that to get over her fear, she has to be brave and step out of her comfort zone. Which might mean requiring to speak to this boy.
First Love
