Last time I'll be saying sorry for the late-ness on this story! T.T I started it when I said I would, but I didn't write much because I only had a few idea's at that time...I Really like how this chapter turned out! I think it's full of SasuSaku-ness ;) Sure, not as much as it could have...but it's cute all the same right?
Anyways...Um, I'm not gonna talk much up here so things about next story (ect.) will be down below!
I Just want to say Thank you to Everyone who Reviewed/Favourited/read/alerted and Whatever else! Thank you guys! I love you all so much & I hope you stay...tuned? for my next story! :)
ALSO! This chapter, it being the last is dedicated to Broadway-Naruto-Girl! She was the one who gave me The Amazing names for this story! Everyone go tell her how awesome she is! I mean it! Like, right after you read the chapter Or even before... ;) Anyways, A BIG Thank you to her!
So now enjoy the Epilouge! :D
Life is a game for Love Chapter Seventeen: Epilouge-Kiss me?
I felt something hit me. Something cold, and wet. Like...water. I opened my eyes to see the scene in front of me.
Sasuke stood holding his sword by his side and Nyx lay on the ground. Nyx's body twitched and then he... melted? It was like he was absorbed by the ground...Which sounds pretty strange, I know, but I saw it with my own eyes!
Sasuke turned around and looked at me. He smiled and my heart skipped a beat. I smiled back at him.
Sasuke walked over to me and held out his hand. I took it gladly. He pulled me up and into his arms.
"Sasuke..."
"SAKURA! SASUKE!" Sasuke and I whipped our heads over to our right to see Tenten, Ino, Shikamaru and Neji waving and smiling at us. My heart sank, in a good way. Knowing they were all safe was like breathing after holding your breath under water for a long period of time.
I felt tears escape my eyes, but I didn't care. They weren't out of pain or sorrow, they were tears of joy!
"Sakura...it's all over." Sasuke wiped a tear from my eye and I nodded.
"Yeah..."
"SAKURA! They're all waiting, Hurry up and get your butt down here!" Tenten yelled from down the hall of my new apartment.
I guess it'd be good to fill you all in on what exactly happened after Sasuke and I killed Nyx.
After we got back from Virtual Life, I told my parents everything that had happened there. My father seemed to understand, my mother...well, she didn't really care. She was too busy with her other man to care about me.
I found out that my father caught my mother cheating on him with that scum bag from a few weeks ago and they were getting a divorce. My mom didn't want me so she told my dad he could keep me. But my father had gotten a promotion to chief or something like that and he was moving to another city about six hours away from here. He told me I didn't have to come if I didn't want to, but since I had nowhere to go besides with him, he offered to buy me my own apartment.
I wasn't really sure at the time...But I decided to stay here with all my friends. So I took my dad's offer on the apartment. The only downfall was I had to get a part-time job to keep up with the rent. It's actually not so bad...
"Sakura Haruno! Don't make me come in there!" Tenten yelled again.
What a pain she can be!
Well, I'm just glad everything worked out the way it did...Even though we almost died...But hey. I have a bunch of new friends. Who are currently waiting in my living room for me so I better catch up with them...
"Finally!" Tenten sighed as I entered the room. I stuck my tongue out at her and pouted. She did the same.
"Alright, alright..." Sasuke said getting up from the couch. He walked over to me and put his hands on my shoulders.
"You look amazing..." He smiled. I felt a blush creep over my face.
"As do you..." I smiled back.
Tenten nudged me from behind. "Flirting are we?" She whispered. I felt my whole face turn red. It was pretty embarrassing. However, everyone else thought it was hilarious! Which it wasn't!
"Shall we go then?" Neji said heading towards the door. You know Neji, Arlys...Well...It turns out he was brainwashed, or his mind was taken over by Nyx so when we attacked Arlys, We must have knocked him back to him senses...Anyways, He's now part of our...gang?
"Yeah, we don't want to miss anything!" Tenten danced over to Neji. Oh, if you didn't guess this by now, Tenten has a crush on Neji...Who could blame her though, he is cute!
"Wait, we're meeting Ino and Shikamaru there right?" I asked as we exited my apartment building.
"Yeah, Ino just texted me asking where we were." Tenten said waving her phone at me. I rolled my eyes at her.
When we arrived at our destination we saw Ino and Shikamaru sitting down on a bench. Ino waved for us to come over.
You probably want to know where we were going, don't you? You see, every year our town has a huge festival in the upper class part of town. It's to honour all the people who made our town back like, 300 years ago...I guess you could say it's like The 4th of July or Canada day...
"What took you so long!" Ino asked putting her hands on her hips.
"Someone took too long to get ready..." Tenten looked over at me. I laughed nervously.
"Ha-ha...Really funny so let's get going..." I continued with my nervous laugh. No one seemed to care because they all walked ahead. All but one, that is...
"You know, you're pretty cute when you're nervous..." Sasuke put his arm around my shoulder. I blushed. You'd think I would be use to this kind of thing by now! Guess not...
"So? What would you like to do first, Sakura?" Sasuke and I followed our group of friends who were laughing and doing whatever they do...
"Um..." I looked at everything around me. The lights were bright and beautiful, the food smelled delicious, the games looked fun, the people sounded happy.
It was amazing to see everyone dressed up. Some people were wearing traditional kimonos; others were wearing fancy dresses and tuxedos. Me? I was wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt; a pair of blue Capri's and brown heels. Very cute and casual.
"We should play some games!" I pulled Sasuke towards a game booth.
A man in a tux was calling people over to play this frog game. I told Sasuke he should give it a try.
"Welcome, welcome everyone to frogs on a Lily-pad! Why hello there! Would either of you be interested in giving it go? All you have to do is shoot this plastic frog into one of those lily-pads." The man behind the counter said to Sasuke and I.
"Sasuke...I want the pink dog..." I tugged on Sasuke's sleeve. He chuckled.
"Alright, but If I win, I get a kiss..." He pulled out a five dollar bill and gave it to the man.
"A...A kiss...?" I stood behind Sasuke with a bit of a shocked look on my face.
He turned to look at me. "That's right...a kiss..."
The man behind the counter smiled a creepish smile. "A chance at a kiss! Everyone come on over to witness this plea of love!" He announced though his microphone. If my face was hot before, it was like 1000 degrees now!
"Uh...you don't need to do that...Sasuke, how about we play a different game?" I watched as a crowd started to form around the booth. I thought I was going to die on the spot!
"It'll only take a second, promise." Sasuke used his charm. You know what charm i'm talking about. The 'Sasuke' charm...The one where, when you look at him your stomach flips and fills with butterflies...We've all fell for the 'Sasuke' charm before...you can't deny it!
"Uh...okay...only a second!" I fiddled with the end of my shirt. Talk about being nervous! God!
Sasuke smiled and turned back to the game. He picked up a plastic frog and placed it on the shooter thingy. He aimed it for a lily-pad and then shot it.
It landed in a lily-pad at the far end of the little pond. The crowd around us cheered. The man behind the counter took the pink dog down from the wall and gave it to Sasuke who gave it to me.
"Th-Thanks..." I blushed. He smiled. "No problem..."
The man behind the counter started chanting in the microphone. "Kiss, kiss, kiss!"
And not shortly after, the crowd started chanting too!
Why! Why did Sasuke have to say something like that! A kiss! Really! God! Sometimes I wish I could just-
My thoughts were cut off by the feel of Sasuke's lips on mine. The moment our lips touched I melted! Not literally, but you get the point!
Sasuke's lips tasted like...liquorice. Just thought I'd let you know. Since, well...you aren't kissing him. Okay, okay! I'm sorry, but Sasuke's cute, hot, everything! Just knowing I'm the one kissing him and not some bitch makes me feel special.
When Sasuke pulled away I felt dizzy. He held out his hand to help me stay up.
The crowd around us 'ooh-ed' and 'aw-ed'. It was really sweet...I know!
"You want to go do something else now?" Sasuke whispered. I nodded. "Yeah..."
After that little...experience, Sasuke and I decided to play a couple more games. Only this time, I won something for Sasuke! I won him a green hamster in this race car game. It was fun to watch him lose against me, who fails at anything electronic!
"Having fun?" Sasuke asked sitting next to me on a bench by a flower cart.
"Yeah...Thanks" I watched the people walking by.
I saw a little girl with brown-orange hair sitting on the ground holding her knee. She had tears running down her cheeks. Then a little boy with black hair walked over to her and handed her a forget-me-not. It was a blue-purple color. The little girl took it. She looked at the flower and then at the boy who was now smiling at her. She wiped her tears away and smiled with him.
It was sweet to see young kids like that.
"What are you thinking about?" Sasuke said looking over at the boy and girl too.
"Nothing..."
"Sakura...Thank you."
I looked at Sasuke confused. He smiled and got up off the bench. He walked over to the lady at the flower cart and started talking. I sighed. I knew it was too good to be true. I bet he only asked for that kiss to get me worked up...
"Ahem..." I heard a cough. I looked up to see Sasuke standing in front of me. He held out a blue-purple forget-me-not. I looked at it, feeling the tears start to form in my eyes.
"Sakura...I just wanted to say this...I...like you, a lot..." Sasuke blushed and looked over to the left. I stood up and kissed him on the cheek. He looked down at me with a surprised face. I took the flower from his hand and smiled
"Me too..."
Awww! :D
How Sweet is Sasuke! Very! Don't you agree...If only he were like this is the manga/anime...Just kidding! I love ass-faced Sasuke ;) Sometimes I wish he wasn't so Stupid though -_- But what can you do?
