As soon as they finished eating, Sasuke paid for their dinner and the two of them left the restaurant and planned to drive to Sakura's house. Since it was getting late and the pinkette might be tired from work, Sasuke decided to take a shortcut.
And apparently, he was right. Sakura was exhausted from work... that's why she fell asleep.
While driving, Sasuke would half-rotate his head to the right, looking at Sakura's peaceful and sleeping face. He would do that minute by minute, and he didn't exactly understand why.
Well, she is beautiful, and that may be one of the reasons why he can't take off his eyes away from her.
Still, the ravenette decided to keep his eyes on the road to be safe. Even though it was just eight in the evening, the sky was awfully dark which didn't happen invariably.
Soon, Sasuke's car started to move in a slow pace which surprised him. His red ferrari abruptly stopped in the middle of the road, making his eyes widen and curse out loud- causing Sakura to wake up.
"Sasuke? Why did you stop?" The pinkette rubbed her eyes, tilting her head to the male's direction.
A vexatious sigh escaped Sasuke's lips as he answered, "The engine died."
"Oh wow the engine- THE ENGINE DIED?!"
"Yeah, I-"
"DO SOMETHING, SASUKE!"
"I will, calm down!"
The raven-haired male stepped out of his car and opened the hood, exposing the engine and other parts.
Sakura followed and walked beside Sasuke. She watched as he grabbed his phone from his pocket, dialing a number and placing it over his ear. He distanced himself away from the pinkette a bit to talk in silence with the person he was calling.
After a few minutes, Sasuke let out another sigh in frustration, putting his phone inside the car and massaging his temples afterwards. He walked back to Sakura's location, aggravated by what's happening.
"This sucks." The emerald-eyed lady stated, "Anyway, what's the problem? Did we run out of gas?"
"I don't think so." Sasuke shook his head. "But don't worry, I already called someone. He knows how to fix cars."
"Why are we even here? I don't think this is the right way."
"I took a shortcut."
"Huh? But this shortcut is so creepy! Look, it's so dark! Plus, I'm pretty sure that no one really passes here. God Sasuke, why did you take this damn road?"
"Because..."
"Because?"
"Because you're tired and I want you to have some rest already. I figured it'll be better if you'll get home to sleep."
Awkward silence.
Sakura shut her mouth after hearing his reply. And, not to mention, she felt guilty; he just cared but instead to be thankful, she even blamed him.
"Sorry," she apologized. "I didn't mean to-"
"It's alright." Sasuke shrugged it off and leaned against the door of his car. Sakura made her way beside him, doing the same thing.
As usual, the ravenette was silent, arms crossed. Even though they were in the middle of the road, there was no other cars passing by. Sakura hugged herself, trying to warm up after feeling the cold air.
Sasuke took notice of this, which is why he took off his coat and placed it around Sakura's shoulders. She smiled at him and mumbled a "thank you", which he acknowledged by nodding.
The pinkette stared up the sky, her grin unwavering. "Sasuke, can you wait for me?" She asked in almost a whisper; though she caught the male's attention.
Plus, he seemed to understand what she meant so he gave her a nod, "I can and I will."
"I see..." Sakura gripped on Sasuke's coat which she was wearing and faced the ravenette. "But you know..."
A pink blush dusted on the emerald-eyed girl's cheeks, gently reaching for Sasuke's hand.
"You don't really have to wait anymore."
For a moment, Sasuke was taken aback by what she said, but he ended up smirking.
Though... he didn't answer.
Sakura momentarily frowned and added, the sweetness in her voice fading. "Well? Say something, you dork."
He chuckled then pulled her to a tight embrace, planting a kiss on Sakura's head. "I only have three words to say, Sakura."
The pinkette blushed again and responded in a shy voice, "I have four."
"Then I'd like to hear them," he stated, "I love you."
And this time, she replied, her voice full of sincerity and tenderness.
"I love you too."
The two shared a deep and passionate kiss after that, and you could say that they're finally and officially together.
***
Thirty minutes passed and Sakura fell asleep inside the car again. The raven-haired business man pulled down the hood of his car and exhaled. He stepped inside, twisting his car keys, turning on the engine.
He took out his phone and saw six unread messages from the same person. He opened them and chuckled.
From: Naruto
Oi, teme! Did your plan work?!
Sasuke shut down his phone and drove away. It was really unexpected that his engine died for some reason; but he didn't really call a friend to help him fix the car. He simply took advantage of the situation so that he can spend some more time with Sakura.
And luckily, she finally said those words that he was longing to hear from her mouth.
I love you.

HELLO
(｡◕‿◕｡)
Lol :P
Just going to say that sorry if it sucks and lacks romance, I'm in a hurry typing this hehe. Also, I will be kinda inactive because school starts tomorrow and stuff. Tho I already typed the next chapter in my notes so ;)
Anyway, I was tagged by the 20 facts thing lol. I'll just put it here since I don't wanna make a whole book for it B)
20 facts: (I won't get too personal :P)
1. I'm a girl. (Obviously lol)
2. I'm a Filipino :)
3. I'm twelve turning thirteen this July~ (the gifts okay, the gifts)

6. I love chocolate and pizza. (Who doesn't? No, seriously. Does anyone hate those kind of food?)

9. I have this huge hate towards one of my classmates. I don't know if it's hate, or dislike... I just can't stand her attitude.
She's the vice president of the class while I'm the peace officer. She acts all goody-two-shoes whenever the teachers are there, and heck, even our classmates. But when she's talking to me, she's all bitchy and annoying. I can't stand her.
She thinks so lowly of others. She bullies them and I can't really see how she's capable of doing so. I don't know what I did to her tbh, but I think her hate towards me has something to do with the guy I liked. (Yes we have the same crush lmfao)
But whatever, she can have him. I deserve better //flips hair
(Lmao excuse my craziness xD)
10. I hate cockroaches. TT^TT I run away whenever I see one HAHAHA I'm so embarrassing xD
11. I suck at Mathematics.
Lol but I'm sooo thankful that I got an A during the fourth grading period omfg. Math is really my least favorite subject. Like, can someone tell me why we have to freaking search for the X in algebra? Ughh
(P.S, my Math teacher didn't teach us Algebra. I hate her >.< I only asked my brother to teach me lol I'm so gonna have a hard time on high school)
12. Favorite subject is English. I like Science too lololol
13. I love Naruto. (Quite obviously xD) btw when I first saw Orochimaru, I thought he was a girl :/ y'know, because of the long hair xD (lmao I'm so stupid)
14. I love food :-)
15. I like studying when there's food beside me. It gives me inspiration *^* huehue
16. I actually like something related to school. Lol it's the clubings. Foods and friends aside, the Journalism club at my school's really great. (That's why I joined in the first place. Lol nvm)
Plus I'm part of the staff oMFG :D I get to write about science, health and technology stuff (including cyberbullying).
17. Tbh I have a lot of friends at school since I became kinda friendly, but I only consider 2 of them as my real best friends.
18. Some of my other favorite animes (excluding Naruto since it's really my first fav xD) are Fairy Tail, Kuroko no Basket, SnK, Death Note, One Piece etc lol. (Though I wish One Piece would improve the art work tbh)
19. Sometimes I wish I was 16 years old because I can pair myself up with 16-year-old anime characters :P Like those from KnB hehe :3
(But Peter Pan doesn't want to grow up... so idk)
20. I like red-haired anime guys because they look hot lol (e.g Gaara, Sasori & Akashi from KnB) but I also like blonde boys huehue (Minato Namikaze, Kise Ryouta etc) and let's not forget black haired people loool (Levi from SnK, Gray Fullbuster and our beloved emo king, Sasuke Uchihaaa <3)
That's about it. :) I'm kinda in a rush so I can't tag xD
