[fluff]

"WHAT?!!?!!"

"Don't yell dobe I'm serious."

"We know that you always are but in this matter..are you kidding me?", Shikamaru furrowed his brows.

"I am serious. The damn serious."

"Is this some April fool prank you are playing with us."

"Wait.,you too Neji? And come on its July."

"We are sorry what again I think we didn't hear it right?", Naruto said.

"You heard it and YEAH TONIGHT I AM PROPOSING SAKURA TO MARRY ME!! We've been together for a year and I think its time.", Sasuke yelled.

" Okay fine.", Naruto sighed.

Shikamaru looked intently at Sasuke, "and how do you plan to do it? And you called us here? Dude its 6:00 am I wanted to sleep."

"I haven't thought about that yet come on that's the reason why you people are here.", Sasuke sighed.

"You want us to tell you how to propose to her, its not that hard Sasuke.", Naruto sighed.

"Really?"

"Yeah you know how I proposed to Hinata? I was thinking a proper simple confession but out of nowhere some bad guys came and I saved her. And that night I had a ring mom gave me and I proposed to her it was beautiful.", Naruto smirked.

"Ahm", Shikamaru faked a cough. " Correction. Naruto hired those guys to come and then he really beat their asses but the next day he was in hospital."

"So what it was okay.". Naruto frowned.

"What about you Shikamaru?", Sasuke asked.

Naruto and Shikamaru were the only ones who were married. Neji was still dating Tenten and the two had just moved in together.

"Leave it. It was a-"

"DRAG!!!". everyone completed his sentence and laughed.

"How about we three give you ideas and you'd have to choose one.", Neji suggested.

"Yeah I like that so? What you guys have in mind?"

"I'll go first.", Naruto grinned. "Take her to her favourite restaurant and then take a walk alone and propose to her in the middle of the walkway. Don't do it at night, evening is perfect."

"Hmm nice. That little brain of yours got something good.", Neji smirked.

"Watch your mouth you, asshole. At least I have something, you've only got your damn comments."

Neji sighed. "Well Sasuke how about taking her to dinner and drop the ring in her glass it would be best and then propose."

"Wow. Nice. Bachelor.", Sasuke smirked.

Everyone turned to Shikamaru.

Naruto narrowed his eyes. " You say what a drag one more time and I'll bang your head on the table."

"I do have something in my mind.", Shikamaru sighed. " Take her to the place which she'd love like the place where you first dated or something sweet and then propose to her."

Sasuke closed his eyes and thought for a while.

"I'll take Naruto's."

"WHAT?", everyone including Naruto yelled.

"Yes I mean its simple and I'm not the kind of a guy with those cheesy lines and stuff."

"Fine.", they sighed.

Suddenly Sasuke's phone beeped.
"Its Sakura's message."

The group looked at Sasuke's phone.

Sakura: hey baby! Come right now I'm missing you and we'll have some fun and then we'll go somewhere.
...

"Have fun?, Its eight am and what are you animals?", Naruto cringed.

"Its so good that she took the first step.", Shikamaru smirked.

"No I can't go there, I have to go to my cousin's house."

"Sakura is more important.", Neji said in a as-a-matter-of-fact tone.

"I know. But he has the ring for Sakura. We went to buy it together."

...........

Sakura rolled on her bed and smiled till her phone beeped.

Sasuke : Sorry babes I can't come gotta work.

"What its weird he never turns down this kind of offer. I offered him sex and he's like that", Sakura sighed.

......

"Hey Ino!", Sakura said as she walked into the cafe.

"Hi Sakura what's up, without Sasuke today huh?", Ino smiled.

"Yeah I told him to come this morning but he refused. It was a little-"

"Gay?!" Ino completed her sentence.

"No Ino.", Sakura chuckled "he's acting a little-"

"Gay again?", Ino laughed.

"No! Weird. Its weird maybe he's starting to lose interest in me.", Sakura sighed.

"Maybe his interest grew in boys I told you to keep him away from Naruto.", Ino sighed and the next think she knew was Sakura's bag on her face.

"Now one more word about him and you're off to hell."

"Ah..its Sasuke's message.", Sakura checked her phone.

"What is it.?", Ino asked.

"He wants me to meet me at the the restaurant two blocks from here."

Ino smirked."so he's started making up to you. Sakura that restaurant's expensive. "

"Bye Ino I don't have time see ya.", Sakura said as she ran.
....

Sasuke sat at the table waiting for his girl.

"Hey Sasuke.", Sakura came in and sat down.

Sasuke's heart started beating fast today was the big day and Haruno Sakura was standing there in all her glory.

"Hi."

Sasuke and Sakura talked for like an hour and they ate. Sasuke was surprisingly was doing okay.

"Sakura you want to go out for a walk?", he said and she nodded.

Sasuke's heartbeat increased now this was the time. It was only the two of them.

"Sa-"

"Hey Sasuke I have a friend who's in a band and its there concert and I have two tickets. I'm really looking forward to and I'm sure you'll love it too. Should we go?", Sakura cut him off.

"Yeah.", he smiled and followed her.

'Damn it plan A failed.', he whispered.

...at the concert.

Sakura is enjoying herself while Sasuke...

"Ahh. Dude will you stop stepping on my foot.", he yelled but the next guy laughed not understanding a word.

"Sasuke you havin' fun?", Sakura yelled.

"What?"

"What?"

..Sakura and Sasuke finally came out of the mob.

"Aahh. It was fun. Did you enjoy it?"
Sasuke frowned.

"Yeah assmuch.", Sasuke cringed.

He thought of something immediately.
"Sakura let's go to dinner."

Sakura chuckled."did you find gold today?"

"No I'm serious."

The couple went to a restaurant and sat on a table. Sasuke ordered wine and kept the ring in it.

Sakura smiled and started drinking.

Sasuke smiled his dream was coming true. The plan is perfect. But suddenly something struck him.

Awkwardness... Anxiety... Unknown.. Fear.. Rejection.

"No you can't drink that.", Sasuke took her glass and drank all the wine with the ring in his mouth.

"What?", Sakura said.

"Yeah I ordered the wrong wine this one is like sewage. I won't let you eat sewage."

"Ah..okay.", Sakura said.

Sasuke sighed and kept the ring in his pocket.... a few minutes later they decide to head home.

"Ahh. Sasuke I guess I'll go home I had an amazing evening today. Good night and she kissed his cheek went.

Sasuke stared down on the road.

Why? Just why didn't he do it? He wouldn't reject her but the confusion and somehow the fear was too much for him. He sighed. " guess I'll go too."

..

Sasuke sighed and took out the key to his apartment. He went in and saw candlelight everywhere it as all beautiful. His eyes widened when he saw Sakura standing there smiling.

"Sak-"

"You wanted it to be a surprise.", she smiled.

Sasuke moved towards her as Sakura bent down to her knees.

"Sas.- Sasuke Uchiha..", tears coming out of her eyes. "All -f..a-all", she started sobbing. "There's a reason why girls don't do it.", she yelled.

"I'll do it.", Sasuke smirked and bent down too.

"Haruno Sakura. I have only loved you and I find my everything in you, you always make me happy. I was afraid. I thought that it mattered where I said it..How I said it but now all that matters is that you are the one to whom I say it to. You complete me I am nothing without you."

Sakura smiled and Sasuke took out the ring.

"Haruno Sakura will you..marry me?"

"Ye-yes I will."

Sasue slipped the ring on her finger. And the two hugged. They stood up and kissed. It was the beautiful scene ever.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"We are dying out here can we come?" Naruto yelled from outside.

"Naruto? Yeah come in."

"Congratulations you guys!" Naruto and Ino hugged them.

"We followed you here Sasuke.", Naruto grinned.

..Shikamaru and Tenten and Neji entered the room few minutes later.

"Congratulations.", Neji and Tenten said and Shikamaru hugged Sasuke.

"Where's Sakura?", Tenten asked.

"She's out in the balcony yelling. " I'm engaged". Didn't you heard that on your way here?", Ino said.

"Yeah we did.", Neji smirked.

Tenten chuckled." We did but we thought it was some stupid kid yelling at night.."I'm gay! I'm gay!"

Sasuke walked out of the balcony and turned to Sakura,"can we go in honey before the cops show up."

Sakura chuckled and kissed him.
"I'll tell them talk to my fiancé."

"Oh yeah."

It feels so right and simple no fear or hard feelings only love and Sasuke never had felt this.

I love you. Sakura.
