Day 4 – Lean on Me (SSM17)

.

.

Typically Sakura wasn’t one to get so intoxicated that coherent speech and walking became a task of great difficulty. That blonde, shrill friend of hers (“Yamakana…I think”) had apparently started to become more a bad influence with regards to this. Not that Sakura wasn’t allowed to drink – it was her own choice after all.

Sakura is a grown woman. “What are you doing out here?” Sasuke asks gently, bending down so that he is eye level to his wife.

She sits on a milk crate, one placed in the alley behind the bar her shrill friend, and her other friends were in right now. They were celebrating something – Sasuke didn’t really care what.

But a call less than ten minutes ago, informing him that ‘perhaps its time to pick up his wife’ is the reason why he is here before her, “you’re not usually one to drink this much, Sakura”.

She looks up, as if only now realising who it is that speaks to her. Her cheeks are red, her eyes are glassy, “I…” she pauses, “I’m sorry”.

His expression softens, “what’s going on?”

Her fingers ring together, she looks genuinely ashamed, “I…um…”

As much as he’d like to think that he knew his wife, there are times when her actions contradict that notion. He can tell she’d been drinking not for celebration, as the rest of her friends had, but for some other reason.

Did she have a bad day? Was there something she wanted to forget?

“I’m…sorry,” she whispers again, “I’ve…” her hands turn to fist, “I’m, gonna go home now”. She stands up quickly – a mistake in hindsight. Sasuke catches her as she begins to fall.

“Sorry,” she whispers again. She grips onto his sleeve, and attempts to stand upright without assistance.

Sasuke does not let go of her arm, “let me carry you,” he says.

Sakura shakes her head, then grabs a fistful of her hair, “ogfh, shouldn’t have done that…dizzy…”

He tries not to smirk, “Sakura, just hop on my back”.

Her reply to him is a stubborn pout coupled with a slightly immature, “I don’t wanna”.

SasuSaku Month 2017
Day 3: Chemistry

Naruto was sick of it, they acted like an old married
couple. They thought that he hadn’t noticed, that the whole village hadn’t
caught on, but everyone had. And almost like a general rule, no one said anything.
Naruto was about to explode.

It was one of those rare days when Naruto was able to escape
Hokage duties to have lunch with his former teammates. They were at Ichiraku at
Naruto’s request, he was on his second bowl of ramen eating slowly as Sasuke
had just finished his.

He saw from the corner of his eyes as Sakura turned to him
brought a finger to the corner of his lips to wipe an excess of broth and then
she stuck the finger in her mouth. Sasuke just rolled his eyes as if their
exchange was the most common thing in the world.

Naruto stopped eating, forgetting altogether his ramen to
stare at his two best friends like they had just grown a second head. After a
moment they both turned to him and asked in unison, “What?”

Naruto didn’t know how to phrase a reply, he was acting as
if they had done such a dirty thing in front of him, but they might as well
have. Public display of affection was a line they hadn’t crossed before. “You
fingered him.” That came out wrong. Sasuke looked scandalized at his choice of
words, Sakura looked confused.

“You can’t do that!” He added after a moment.

“What?” This time it was Sasuke who asked, sounding
exasperated, Naruto wanted to hit him.

“Everything, all of it!” He had a mental list of all of
those things they should not be doing, Sakura would hit him on the head for
half of it. “I am Hokage, and I am declaring as of right now that you two can’t
be doing all those things you’re surely doing until you marry.”

“Naruto…” Sasuke started with that tone of voice that told
him he’d like nothing more than to punch him in the face. “We are married.”

“What?”

That day Naruto found out his two best friends had gotten
married on their travels, they had told him nothing, and he hadn’t even been
invited to the wedding. And so the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf spent the
remainder of the afternoon annoyed at the Uchiha’s for a whole different
reason.

He slips something into the palm of her hand and she stares at it curiously. It was a small pendant with no chain or hook. She turns it over it her hand to examine it in close detail. He had handed her a pendant of the Uchiha crest.

Sasuke clears his throat as he stuffs his mittened hands back into the pockets of his coat. “You can keep it… or throw it away… or keep it,” he mutters.

“You already said the last part earlier,” she tells him as she smiles and plays with the pendant and rolls it around in her palm.

He rocks back and forth on the balls of his feet as he glances up at the sky before answering her. “Just giving you options.”

Sakura nods as she pockets the pendant. Sasuke watches carefully as he lowers his scarf from his face. “Are you accepting the responsibility in keeping that?”

“You didn’t say there were strings attached,” Sakura retorts.

He scoffs. “Of course there are strings.”

She smiles as she strokes her chin. “It couldn’t be something corny like ‘spending the rest of my life with you’ could it?”

Sasuke bites his lip as he brings a mittened hand to hide his already reddening face. Quickly, he reaches into Sakura’s pocket in an attempt to get the pendant back. It proved to be difficult with just mittens on, however, and Sakura immediately reacts as she hops back and grabs his wrist at the same time. “Give it back to me,” he orders. “It’s too corny. I can’t do it.”

She laughs as she fights him off. "Come on, you can say it!”

“No.” He was always a stubborn one. He sits down on the bench behind them as he crosses his leg and looks away. Expressing himself outwardly was always difficult for him. 

“I love it, Sasuke-kun,” Sakura smiles as she comes to sit down beside him.

“Good, ‘cause there’s only one of that in the entire world.”

Sakura nods as she clutches the pendant tightly in her hand. She leans her head against his shoulder as she opens up her palm to admire the pendant again in the light. “Yes,” she says.

“Yes to what?” he asks as he turns to her.

“To spending the rest of my life with you. I thought I would just put it out there so you would know in case you didn’t.”

“Then yes too.”

“Yes to what?” she asks him back.

“Yes, I love you.”

Sakura seems surprised at his words but a huge smile spreads across her face. “I thought you didn’t like saying corny stuff?” she teases as she pokes him in the arm, clearly both pleased and prodding him for more.

“I don’t. But I thought I would just put it out there so you would know in case you didn’t.”

With a soft smile, Sakura slips her mittened hand into his as she leans her head once more against his shoulder. “I do,” she murmurs as she closes her eyes.

“You sure are happy mama, I bet it’s because now that papa has finally come home.” Sarada teases her mother, resulting the Uchiha matriarch to blush.

“What are-”

“I can read you very well mama.” She smiles cheekily and runs off to catch up to her teammates.

Watching her daughter run off fondly she thinks to herself ‘You’re probably the happiest out of everyone Sarada.’

After the fight with Momoshiki and Kinshiki…

Sasuke and Sakura peacefully watch their daughter and her team from the rooftop.

“I’m glad you’re home now.” Sakura gives her husband a joyous smile and comes down to stand next to him.

‘After all these years she still gives me this reaction.’ Sasuke thinks to himself, heat forming on his cheeks.

“Heh.” He does a small grin and holds her hand in his, savoring its warmth and lets her rest her head on his shoulder.

It felt so great standing next to her.

“Let’s go home.” He leads them back to their house, never letting go of her hand.

Once they arrive home, Sakura pulls him in a long overdue kiss.

“I love you, my darling.” She smiles once she lets go leaving him speechless as she walks into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
