SasuSaku Month 2017
Day 1: First Love

When he thinks of romantic love he thinks of Sakura. He
thinks of dark skies and promises of forever falling from her tongue. He thinks
of her lips as she utters his name, of the sound of her voice and he spent
years trying not to think of how her
words made him feel.

He hears her voice often now, knows the sound of his name on
her lips. As he opens his eyes, her voice is the first thing he hears.
“Sasuke.” He recognizes the scent of the hospital room immediately, it takes
him a moment to take in his surroundings, the blank sterile room. But it takes
him no time at all to hear her, the way his name falls off her lips; no quiver
in her voice, flat with a hint of worry she tries to disguise behind her
serious tone.

“You should be more careful.” She adds and he only nods in
response, his eyes finding hers just as her hand finds his.

“I was dying to see you.” He speaks, his voice a little
rough. It takes him a moment to realize there’s some drug in his system because
he wouldn’t have said that out loud otherwise.

She smiles. “Not exactly, but you know, if you really want
to see me all you have to do is stop by.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.” He replies and brings her hand to
his face, slowly kissing the inside of her wrist. “I’m sorry I made you worry.”

“Worry? Nah.” Her smile grows. “I’m just glad you’re home.”
