22 -Clumsy-
Sasuke's POV
I invited [Name] over for dinner the next day so she could meet my parents. Well, mostly my mom; my dad doesn't care who I decide to date. I've already told my parents about how [Name] uses sign language to communicate. My dad doesn't know sign language so, my mother is going to have to translate for him.
My mother was the one who taught Itachi and I sign language, saying it would come in handy one day. I'm so glad she did because I would have never understood [Name], and I might've never fallen in love with her either.
"Hey Sasuke!" my cousin Shisui sang from the other side of my bedroom door. "You're girlfriend's here!"
I stand up a little too quickly and get light headed but run towards the stairs anyways. My foot gets caught on something at the top of the stairs and I fall. All. The. Way. DOWN!
While I'm cradling my poor left arm, I hiss in pain. The laughter at the top of the stairs echoed into the foyer; that's when I knew it was all just one of Shisui's stupid pranks that ended up in me being in pain.
I stand, yelling, "Fuck you, you piece of dog shit!"
"Ooo!~ Someone's a little angry," Shisui teases. He slowly makes his way towards me. "At least you didn't hurt your noggin."
That's when I realize the shooting pain on the right side of my head. The aching increased every second, making me dizzy. I shut my eyes, hoping the pain would stop soon.
"Did it work?" I hear Itachi's voice call out. "Did he fall?"
"Yeah dude! He totally tripped over the string we placed down!"
Their voices started to fade in and out.
"Guys, I'm...not feeling too well," I mumble. The world around me was spinning and I had a pounding headache. My balance was terrible and I found myself on the cold floor within seconds.
"Oh shit! Sasuke! Sasuke?!"
I open my eyes, and in front of my face is a blurry Itachi.
"You okay?" Itachi asks, brushing some of my hair away from my face. "I think you got a concussion."
"H-How'd I get a concussion?"
"You fell down the stairs."
"I...I did?"
My head hurt way too much, I don't remember falling down at all. Itachi sighs, picking me up in his arms. I close my eyes again, hearing Itachi's faint voice in the background.
"My poor baby brother. I'm sorry."
...
An intense coldness is pressed against my head. I open my eyes and realize I'm back in my room. A gentle hand cups my cheek, turning my head to the right. A beautiful smile that makes my heart go wild.
"[Name]. You're here," I say, happiness swallowing me whole. I can't help but smile at the girl I've fallen in love with. Slowly, I sit up in bed and an icepack falls into my lap.
[Name] moves to sit in front of me, a smile still plastered on that beautiful face of hers. I just wanted to jump on her and kiss her all over; do so many unspeakable things to her.
I swatted my dirty thoughts to the back of my mind while [Name] signed to me.
*I've already met your parents, and we already had dinner.
"Oh? Really? Does that mean you have to leave?"
She nods. *Yeah...my mom wanted me home right after I had dinner. But I came up here to see how you were doing since you didn't come down at all.
Her cheeks puff out a little when she begins to pout. It's the cutest thing I've ever seen. I just wanted to pinch her cheeks and cuddle her.
*Itachi told me you got a concussion and blacked out. I'm glad to see you're okay.
She pats my thigh and get chills. I close my eyes to compose myself, but when I open my eyes again, [Name] is walking out my door.
Quickly, I stand and say, "Can I walk you home? Please?"
She shakes her head and continues to leave me behind. I click my tongue, grab a jacket and to follow her. When I catch up, I grab her arm.
"I'm walking you home whether you like it or not. A young lady shouldn't be walking home alone at night."
She smiles as we walk out together, arms interlocked. I could hear my brother whistling from his bedroom window, yelling at me to "Get some".
I roll my eyes and ignore him while [Name] chokes down her laughter. Tugging her along, we walk down the dark sidewalk; the chilly air seemed to be getting to [Name]. She shivers slightly when the wind blows.
"Would you like my jacket?" I ask, taking my red jacket off. She shakes her head no but I've already wrapped it around her shoulders. "Can't have you catching a cold."
With a concerned look on her face, [Name] stops walking. *What about you? Won't you catch a cold?
"I'll be fine," I reassure her. "Plus, if I do get sick, you'll come over and take care of me, right?"
She smiles and nods. My heart flutters in my chest when I see her smile like that. That beautiful grin, shining brighter than any other star out in the midnight sky. We continue walking but me, still dazzled by her smile, forgets to look where I'm going and a low tree branch hits me square in the face.
"Aw fuck!" I cry out, stopping to hold my nose. [Name] doesn't even look back, she walks without me. I jog to catch up but she crosses the street before I can get to her. Without looking both ways, I cross, trying to get to her. Half way to the other side, my foot gets caught on a pothole causing my body flop to the ground.
"Damn it!" I curse once I stood back on my two feet. [Name] was waiting for me, her hand on her hip looking impatient as I stand awkwardly in the street. Quickly, I shuffle back to my love, dusting my hands on my jeans.
"Sorry," I apologize, scratching the back of my head. She sighs and begins to sign.
*Maybe you should hold my hand so you won't get lost, or left behind.
She holds her hand out to me and I hesitate. My palms felt really sweaty all of a sudden.
"Y-You want m-me t-to hold y-your hand?" I squeak out, stumbling over my words. She nods firmly, with her hand out for me to take. My breath hitched in my throat and my hands were shaking as I reached up to hold hers.
What the hell is wrong with me?! Come on Sasuke! Act cool and detached like always!
"Hn. Whatever," I grumble, though I could feel my cheeks get a lot warmer. I hope the darkness could hide the fact that I was blushing, but I could hear her sweet giggles and I nearly melt.
She squeezes my hand and I squeeze back as she walks with me.
...
"Well here you are," I grumble, reluctantly letting go of her hand. We stood at the front door of her home. She turns to me and grins.
*Thank you for bringing me home. You're such a gentleman.
That's when [Name] stood on her tip toes to kiss mcheek. She waves bye as I stumble my way back home, dazed by the kiss.
She kissed me! SHE KISSED ME!
I felt like skipping all the way home. I've never been this happy before.
"I wonder if she feels the same butterflies that I'm feeling."
I had to mentally slap myself and pull my emotions back into the little glass jar I call my heart.
"What has love done to me?"
The only answer I got was chill down my spine and my heart fluttering in my chest. I couldn't help but smile.
"She kissed me."
A/N: this chapter is a little bit longer since, well, it's been so long. hope you enjoyed it. love you bye!
P.S: if you lovely readers give me a word, I will definitely make a chapter out of it. (Unless it's like something unacceptable)
