Part 7: The Special Note

"Sakura, why were you so afraid to be up on stage? You have a wonderful voice," Sasuke complimented, feeling his cheeks warm to his comment. Sakura bowed her head. "Well, I always thought my voice was pathetic, compared to the voices of other people I hear. Naruto and Ino said I could be a pop star if I wanted to, but I never believed them," she said, almost sounding embarrassed.

"Well, next time you should listen to them."

"Maybe."

The walk seemed short, for most of it was in silence. As they approached the complex where Sakura lived, Sasuke stopped. Sakura looked at him with a curious eye. "Sasuke-kun?" she asked. "I've been wanting to give you something for awhile now. Just, with training and stuff, I didn't have the chance," he said, taking out the note from his pocket. He had in there since he took it from Naruto, but at least he placed it in an unopened envelope. He placed it into Sakura's hand. "Don't read it until you are in your house, all right?" he told her. Sakura nodded with a smile then headed inside. Sasuke watched as she entered the building and began to slowly walk away.

As soon as Sakura entered the house, she closed the door and leaned against it, Sasuke's note at her chest. She felt her heart beat fast in her chest, as if she was running. 'A note from Sasuke-kun...he gave me a note,' she thought. She sat down, next to the door, and opened the envelope. Inside was a small piece of paper, and she held it gently in her fingers.

Dear Sakura...

For the longest while now, I've wondered why there was a feeling in my heart that I couldn't decribe. You know this feeling all too well, and I hardly know it at all. I hoped that you, Sakura, could show me what this feeling, and share yours with me as well.

Aishite imasu.

Sasuke

The letter took Sakura's breath away. 'He...he loves me?' she thought, almost in shock. She held the letter close to her heart, and she could feel her heart beat fast through her chest. 'Sasuke! Is he still outside?' she wondered. She stood and ran out the door, outside in the night.

She didn't see him, and felt that she was too late. "Sasuke-kun..." she said, turning away. Suddenly, she felt a pair of familiar arms around her, holding her to that spot. "Aishite imasu, Sakura," Sasuke said. Sakura turned around, despite his hold and smiled at him through tearing eyes. "Aishite imasu, Sasuke-kun," she said, giving him a small kiss on his lips, and in turn, received one all her own.
