The movie theater wasn't too far from Ichiraku's. Right around the block. Although, despite the sudden thought from Naruto, they had gone the opposite way of the movie theater. So Naruto and Sakura had to trail back to Ichiraku's first.
So, in that time, Naruto and Sakura had the time to talk. Sakura was a bit quiet though. She looked a little uncomfortable. Naruto became worried, and tried to lighten up the mood.(1)
"Hey Sakura," Naruto started, "why'd you ask me out anyway?" Sakura turned to him, she was staring at the ground before, and widened up her eyes a bit, as though she were exercising her eyes like she just woke up.(2) "Well, to be honest… I was just kinda bored. And I wanted to do something cool." Cool. She thinks it's cool to date me, Naruto thought. It made him smile.
"Really? That's awesome." It really, really is, Naruto thought, still smiling. Sakura smiled back. But then that smile disappeared as she looked back at the ground. "What's the matter? …I like that smile." Sakura looked back at him, and after a few moments, smiled lightly again. "Well… I'm just thinking…" She stopped, her smile dissolving a bit.
Naruto pulled at her arm lightly, to get her attention. "Yeah?" His face was worried and serious. Sakura lost her smile again. "…about… the whole thing with… you know." Sakura grew a frown, and bit her lip. Naruto just looked more worried now. "I understand… it's hard. I care about him too. But right now, we have to be happy for everyone."
Sakura just looked at the ground. Naruto smiled, and tried to flirt, in his own way.(3) "You know, Sasuke was always a bit angsty." he joked. Sakura laughed lightly, and bit her lip. Her face was a little sad, but her smile was back, and even though it was light and little, Naruto was happy to see that he could make her laugh, let alone smile.
Naruto wanted her to laugh a little more, but they had reached the movie theater now. Naruto's face went a bit shocked. He reached in his pocket and brought out his frog purse.(4) "Whew… I have enough." Naruto made a face that said, 'I'm so stupid,' and but his frog purse back in his pocket. Sakura laughed a little more.
They walked up to the window and Naruto asked for two tickets to Death Note 2.(5) He paid, and they walked into the theater, silent, although they had smiles on their faces and their fingers were entwined with each other's.
They walked up to the refreshment display(6) and decided to get some popcorn and few candies. "So Sakura, what do you want?" Sakura looked over at him, a gentle smile on her face still. "Uh, I guess I'll get some pocky. And you?" "I'll have some pocky too. What flavor?" Sakura looked at him with more curiosity and confusion on her face, mixing with her light smile. "You want me to choose?"
Naruto looked back at her, smiling. "Yeah, what's so weird about that?" Sakura looked back at the counter. "I don't know. Just doesn't seem like you." She shrugged, and a whole bout of happiness skewered over her face, as she turned back to him. Naruto gaped at Sakura's expression for a few seconds, unnoticeably, and smiled back, just as happy. "Uh.." He stammered, but Sakura started again, as seeing Naruto was embarrassed by the fact she was so happy all the sudden.
"I want pine."(7) Sakura said, her smile still big and bright. "Uh, okay." Naruto said, nervously.
As said, he bought pine-flavored pocky for the two of them, as well as a large drink and popcorn. Naruto gave the man the tickets, and walked with Sakura to the screening room for Death Note 2.(8)
They noticed that there was only one seat left (popular movie, huh?), so they compromised and Sakura sat in Naruto's lap.(9)
They began talking during the movie ads at the beginning. Sakura laughed a few times while they were talking, because Naruto kept cracking little jokes here and there.
As the movie started, they settled down and Naruto wrapped his arms around Sakura's waist. Sakura flushed, and comforted herself in a better position.
By the end of the movie, they had savaged away at the pocky(10) and both their cheeks were pink from laughing at each other's little squabblish jokes here and there.
"So, Naruto, where should we go next?" Naruto looked at the clock in the theater, and looked back at Sakura. "Are you sure we should do more? I mean, it's like 9:00 already."(11) Sakura thought about this for a few moments. Then she looked back, smiling. "I want to go over to your house."
Naruto blushed, and gulped a lump in his throat. He was silent for a second, but then came back with, "I-I guess. If you really want to…"

NO LEMON, I promise. X3
1. I read somewhere that boys go crazy at the smallest things.
2. Does anyone else do that when they wake up? You know, widen your eyes at nothing, just to get them used to being open?
3. You know, make her laugh. Lots of guys do that.
4. Believe me, it's a purse!!
5. I've never seen that movie. Sorry, I couldn't think of anything, and I was tired too.
6. That thing with all the candies and stuff up for display before you actually go in that room to watch a movie. I didn't know what to call it, so I just called it a "refreshment display." They have powders for your popcorn at my local theaters. Like caramel powder for your popcorn. It's soooo cool.
7. I love pine-flavored pocky. Yummy!
8. What do you call the room where the movie plays on that big screen?
9. I thought of that idea suddenly, and I just couldn't help myself! Oh, and by the way, Death Note really is a popular movie. VERY popular. 4 weeks in top box office thing!!
10. Pocky is ADDICTING. It really is.
11. I did some math real quick. Oh, and sorry for leaving so many notes. XP
Omg, I'm sorry for having to upload this and unupload this so many times. It kept messing up XP I don't care if it messes up again. Please read it.
