Chapter 8

The next day Sasuke found himself going back to the bookstore where Naruto and the two others worked. Earlier, Neji had asked if he wanted to hang out at his house but Sasuke declined before heading straight home to leave his stuff, as he got home he regretted that decision. His pink haired fiancé was waiting for him at home. As usual she had taken his jacket and bag and handed it to the butler next to her and followed him, well that is until he reached his room. She still did not dare to enter that realm yet, much to Sasuke’s relief. But much to his annoyance, she talked to him through the closed door asking if they could have a nice meal together, again. He had once again declined and told her he had other things to do today, before opening the door and walking passed the pink haired girl.

Sakura had been a little bit surprised when Sasuke had opened the door again, but more surprised to find the boy dressed in a pair of track suit bottoms and a hooded jumper. Sasuke had found the clothes at the back of his closet, he used them once in a while when he could be bothered to go to the gym at the university.

Uchiha stood in front of the bookstore, the wind had picked up a little and some raindrops had begun to fall. The raven looked up on to the grey sky and felt a wee bit disappointed, he and the blond had planned to do some sparring and Naruto had said he would teach him some more kyudo. Sasuke shrugged a little as a cold wind blew through his clothes when he walked to the entrance of the shop.

‘Ding’

“What’s a date?” Sasuke heard Naruto say and looked in the direction of the blond. Naruto was sitting on the stairs along with Gaara, both having their noses buried in a magazine. Shikamaru on the other hand was leaning against the wall, sleeping with a book covering his face.

As soon as Naruto heard the bell on the door he lifted his head and looked in that direction. He noticed it was the raven that had just entered, a wide smile appeared on his face. Sasuke smiled back, he rarely smiled, he usually just smirked or didn’t smile at all. But with a smile the blond had, none couldn’t help but to be affected, this was something Sasuke had found out for himself.

“Sasuke.” Naruto shot up from where he was sitting and jumped in his arms, the blond liked being in the raven’s arms. There was something about him that made him feel safe and warm and most of all cared for… He was not sure if love was the right word to use as he did not really know what love was.

“Hey Naruto.” Sasuke tightened his grip on the blond and placed his lips on the other. The raven couldn’t deny it any longer, he loved how the blond tasted, how the blond attached himself to him and last but not least how the blond seemed to fit in his arms. The two parted and smiled to each other, Sasuke leaned in a little closer letting their noses meet. Making both of them look like two love struck puppies, which they were, unknown to themselves. Shikamaru, who had been sleeping up till then, stirred and lifted the book up slightly to see who had arrived. Once satisfying his curiosity of who it was, he put the book back on his face and went back to his own little world.

“Ne, Ne Sasuke.” Naruto released himself a little from the raven before continuing. “What is a date?” Sasuke raised an eye brow.

“You don’t know what a date is?” Sasuke asked looking a little puzzled. Sometimes the blond asked and did things very strange, like he had been isolated from the world. And he could not deny that he was curious of Naruto’s upbringing.

“No, so what is it?” the blond pulled the raven back from his thoughts. Gaara too, was curious to what it was.

“Well it is something boyfriends do, like go to dinner or a movie. ”Sasuke replied. Both Gaara and Naruto contemplated on the answer, the red head looked back down to the magazine.

“So that’s why it says…” Gaara held up the magazine to Sasuke and the raven read the first part.

‘How to Get the Guy of Your Dreams.’ the title read ‘First things first, where is the date? Your choice of clothing is controlled by where the date is. But that does not mean that you should wear your sweatpants if it is a hike or an exercise date. Even on an active date one can dress sexy and daring.’ Sasuke couldn’t help but to laugh a little, the image of two boys sitting and reading a girl magazine on how to get the guy of their dreams was rather amusing.

“Can you date even though you’re not boyfriends and girlfriends?” The blond asked.

“Sure, one usually asks for a date first before one becomes a couple.” Sasuke said handing the magazine back to the red head.

“So when you go on one of these dates one becomes boyfriends and girlfriends?” Naruto kept asking.

“Well a date does not necessarily mean that you becomes a couple,” the raven answered.

“Then how do you become boyfriends and girlfriends then?” The blond boy asked, looking a little confused. There was so much he did not know about social interaction.

“Well, it all depends on how well the first date goes, I guess. If it goes well you kiss and do other stuff and go on more dates, if it goes bad you usually don’t see them again.” Upon hearing the answer Naruto looked at Sasuke with wide eyes.

“Wait … what about us? We kissed first, we never went on a date. Does that mean we’re not boyfriends?” Naruto was starting to panic, according to the information he had just processed he and Sasuke had jumped the first and most important step.

Sasuke looked at the frantic boy holding his hand, it was rather amusing to watch how Naruto seemed to be new to everything. He couldn’t help contain the small chuckle that followed.

“Don’t worry, its not necessary to go on a date first. Sometimes the physical attraction is enough. Dates can come later.” The raven said pulling the blond closer to him.

“So does that mean we are boyfriends now?” Naruto asked and looked at the raven with his deep blue eyes. Sasuke was a bit surprised, he had never thought about their relationship status. He doubted with the confusion the blond had shown over what a date was, that he ever heard of the term ‘fuck buddy’. Not that he thought of the blond as one nor that they had been actually sleeping together to even get to that point. Sasuke looked again into the deep blue eyes, there was no denying how beautiful they were, the entirety of the boy was beautiful. The raven smiled at the blond in his arms.

“Yeah, we’re boyfriends.” Sasuke gave Naruto a kiss on the forehead and squeezed the boy a little closer.

“Does this mean we get to go on a date?” Sasuke snickered at the blond’s question.

“Yeah … that means we can go on a date,” the blond grinned at the statement before burying his face into Sasuke’s shoulder.

Gaara had a long since left his seat on the stairs and had wandered over to the sleeping brunette. The information Sauske had provided was both interesting and confusing. Shikamaru who had gone back to ‘sleeping’ with a book over his head had also gained some knowledge, the images of what he and Gaara had done last night crept into his head. The brunette began feeling something in his lower region when he remembered the flustered and moaning red head lying underneath him.

“Shikamaru?” Gaara’s voice broke the brunette’s line of thoughts.

“Hmm?” Shikamaru lifted the book and looked at the red head standing in front of him.

“We need to go on a date,” the red head firmly stated.

“What?!? … Why?” Shikamaru said in his usual lazy sounding voice.

“Because we have been doing it all wrong, one shouldn’t be kissing or doing other stuff before one has gone on a first date.” Gaara held up the magazine and pointed to the article. “See!?!” Shikamaru tipped the chair back on to 4 legs and leaned closer to the article, closing the book he had had on his head.

“Troublesome.” He muttered, he looked up at Gaara again. His green eyes was both soft and stern at the same time, this was probably Gaara’s attempt at making puppy dog eyes. Shikamaru found it incredible cute, he sighed, he couldn’t say no to that.

“Fine … we’ll go on a date.” As he looked at the red head he immediately knew he wouldn’t regret it, as soon as Gaara had heard the answer from him. The red smiled a real smile. Shikamaru was lost for words, and thoughts. The smile Gaara had was not like the blond‘s, it was small, yet very clear for anyone to see and unlike Gaara’s usual expression and composure it was soft and made Shikamaru’s heart skip a beat. It didn’t take long before the brunette was struck by panic, well it was more nerves than panic as he realised he had no clue how to go on a date.

*********************************************************************************

The next day, like any day, Shikamaru and the two others had done their routines and chores before opening the book store at 10 am. But when Shikamaru was out buying them lunch; he ventured to the magazine section of the food store. The brunette figured that there had to be some magazine that could inform him on how to go on a date.

After some searching he found a magazine that had a small headline saying ‘How You Should Behave for Your First Date.’, ‘Bingo,’ the brunette thought and picked up the magazine, ignoring the look he got from the cashier when he picked it up and began reading it as he walked out of the store.

Sasuke, on the other hand, had arrived home after his last class at 2 to find the annoying pink haired girl waiting for him.

“Welcome home Sasuke-sama,” she said bowing slightly before taking his bag and jacket and giving it to the butler next to her.

“Hn,” Sasuke replied in his usual cold, un-interested tone of voice. He walked past the annoying girl, who much to frustration. followed him as he walked towards his room.

“Sasuke-sama would you please join me in the living room?” Sakura asked as she followed him.

“No I would prefer not to”

“Please Sasuke same … your father and mother went through a lot of trouble in order to let me stay here for the week.” Sasuke inwardly growled, not because the use of his parents, she could use them to try and cause a guilt trip on him but what she did not know was that Sasuke could care less what his parents did as long as it did not affect his inheritance and lifestyle.

“Please.” She began pleading. Sasuke hated when she did that, she was already annoying but listening to her repeat the word please for any length of time was like putting up with someone dragging their nails down a black board.

“Fine!” Sasuke gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes before stomping into the living room. When he entered, he planted himself on the sofa and expected the annoying pink thing to sit down on the sofa opposite him, to say he was surprised was an understatement when the pink haired girl sat next to him and pressed breast against him.

“Whoa!?!?!?!” Sasuke half yelled and shot out from the chair, leaving a very confused but blushing Sakura. “What are you doing?”

“What? It is only natural, I mean we are going to get married.” Sasuke just stared at her. “I know, and tradition says we’re suppose to wait until our wedding night, but there is no point to wait. What they don’t know wont hurt them.” The pink haired girl giggled a little before loosening the upper part of her kimono.

“Okey hold it right there.” Sasuke turned as he saw the exposed flesh, he was a bit confused of his own actions. He was a healthy young man with urges like any other yet he had just turned away from a girl willingly taking off her clothes for him. Sure it was a polite thing to do, the only difference was that Sasuke actually turned away in disgust. “Please put your clothes back on”

Sakura frowned at Sasuke’s comment and she was slightly angry that she had not managed to seduce the raven, she was his fiancé and in less than a year she was going to be his wife. Sakura fixed the top part of her kimono and looked at Sasuke who was still standing with his back to her, she noticed the way he was carrying himself had changed a little. He seemed more relaxed, his clothes had also changed when he went out. It was something he had been doing every day after he finished his classes at the university.

“You can turn around again, I am all dressed,” the raven turned slightly, he was just going to make sure she was not lying.

“Well if that was all I’ll take my leave now.” He said and began walking towards the door.

“Wait!” Sakura shot up from the chair. “Don’t go.”

“Why, all you’ve done so far is undress.” Sasuke said not stopping.

“Sasuke-sama, please stop.” She ran to take his arm and pulled him to a halt. Sasuke glared at her, sure he had a ice cold look normally but right now if he had any sort of power he could probably freeze the whole room.

“Give me one good reason.” The raven said in a cold tone.

“I am your fiancé,” she formed her ‘puppy dog’ eyes.

“Not good enough.” He pulled his arm out of her grip and stomped up to his room, leaving Sakura to digest the words he had just spoken.
