A/N: I needed a little bit of time out from my fics, so I asked my readers at tumblr and Y!Gallery to give me prompts for drabbles, and this is one of them.

Written for 2buffy102 from tumblr. She wanted Sasuke and Naruto on a first date, ending with their first kiss.

This is my first time doing drabbles, so I'm really having fun with this experience!

Not betaed.

Naruto and Sasuke belong to Kishimoto Masashi.

Drabble One

Under the Fireworks

It was a dream come true, Naruto thought, grinning happily at his companion as they walked side by side, hand in hand. This kind of stuff only happened in movies, and something that, two weeks ago, he would definitely claim impossible to happen to him because he was the unluckiest guy ever to step the face of the earth when it came to the matters of the heart. That was, until he came along.

"Oi, stop smiling like a lunatic," said the guy, who was currently the center of his universe, eyeing Naruto in amusement. The blond merely grinned even wider.

"I can't help it when I'm this happy," he replied, honestly. "I haven't been on a date since forever, and especially not one that actually went as well as this one is going."

"As if I'd ever let anything go wrong," Sasuke muttered cockishly, offering him a self-assured smirk. And Naruto knew that he was right, so he merely shrugged a bit sheepishly before taking a small bite on his caramelized apple.

From the corner of his eyes, he observed his companion in a dissimulate way. Sasuke was, by far, the most attractive person he had ever been with, and even though he loved seeing him in casual clothes, there was no doubt that he looked great in his dark blue yukata, the color contrasting rather nicely with his pale complexion – which looked almost ethereal in the summer moonlight.

Sasuke was the polar opposite of him in every way possible, but at the same time, he complemented him like no other before him. Naruto didn't understand how someone so quiet, smart and aloof could handle his own loud, friendly and energetic personality, but it wasn't like it really bothered him.

They had met on the subway a few weeks ago and Naruto had approached Sasuke because he had noticed he was reading a manga he was following. While the dark-haired young man hadn't seemed too fond of being interrupted out of the blue, somehow the two actually made small talk and next think they knew, they were exchanging emails and phone numbers. Before Naruto understood what was happening, casual meetings became an everyday occurrence and he could no longer imagine his daily life without eagerly waiting for that time of the day when he would see the handsome young man.

And then, the awkward tension started, but luckily, Sasuke wasn't one to beat around the bush, so they both ended up talking about it and spilling the beans, and it became obvious that they were both developing feelings for each other.

Which was why, on that beautiful night, Sasuke had taken him to that festival for their first official date, and Naruto couldn't remember being happier. They had already played a lot of games and had probably tried all the food available. Sasuke was, as usual, very quiet, but his relaxed demeanor, and the way his fingers caressed Naruto's once in a while told him he was having fun.

"You want some?" Naruto asked, extending his apple towards his friend. He had already taken a few bites out of it, but he didn't expect Sasuke to be disgusted.

They stopped walking, ignoring the sea of people surrounding them. Sasuke eyed the apple for a few seconds before grabbing Naruto's wrist to steady it and taking a small bite, his dark gaze never leaving his. The blonde watched him in mild fascination, mouth slightly open. For a moment there, he felt mesmerized and his grip on the stick that was stuck in the fruit almost faltered, but he simply swallowed hard and held it tighter.

Sasuke chewed, slowly. "It's too sweet," he said, in a low voice, and Naruto couldn't help but notice how close their faces were to each other, and how intense Sasuke's gaze had become. Then, unsure of who had moved first, all he knew was that they were leaning in at the same time until their lips met. The kiss was, by no means, hesitant, and even though they still had to get used to each other, neither was shy in moving their mouths against the other's. Tongues touched for a few seconds and Naruto decided that he loved Sasuke's taste, even though he did taste sweet from the caramel in the apple.

When they broke the contact, both were a bit out of breath, but Naruto couldn't help the huge grin from spreading across his face once more.

"I disagree," he said, licking his lips. "I think it tastes perfect."

In the sky, fireworks were exploding all sorts of colors and shapes. Looking at Sasuke and seeing the soft smile on his face, Naruto wondered if there was a saying that had something to do with two people kissing and fireworks. It didn't really matter, anyway, because he didn't need some superstitious bullshit to tell him that they would be together for a long time. Some things you just know, and Naruto knew. Hopefully, Sasuke already did, too.

The End
