My Life
Chapter 9 Remember, when you taught me how to dance?
I walked up to Sasuke smiling at him as he smiled at me. He asked "Did they get to school alright, no complications?" I grinned, thinking of how much he resembled a mother hen. I nodded in answer to his question and he breathed a sigh of relief. I asked "So captain what are we doing?" He replied "Well we need to go paint the insides of the café, feel up to that?" I nodded smiling "Yep!" I replied. He smirked at me, grabbing my hand he led me to the café, which Yoko works in.
We entered and Yoko greeted us chirpily "Good Morning!" I replied back happily "Good morning to you too!" Sasuke nodded to her in acknowledgment and he told Yoko "We're going to paint the inside of the café, feel free to go help the others." Yoko nodded and did what Sasuke suggested, I waved bye to her and she responded doing the same. I grabbed towels and placed them down and around the walls. Sasuke set out the paint and I asked "what colour are we painting the walls? Orange? Red? Yellow? Blue?" Sasuke frowned lightly, replying "White." I nodded and quickly turned on the radio and immediately tuned the radio to HEART which had 'Next to me' on by Emeli Sande. I started painting over the chipped with Sasuke and I lightly hummed along to the music.
Sasuke rolled his eyes at my behaviour and I noticed a corner that was empty I asked Sasuke about it and he replied "My wife had an idea for it but never got round to doing it or telling me." I smiled asking "Mind if I paint it? I think I might know what she was going to paint." He thought for a minute before nodding saying "Yeah sure why not." I thanked him and quickly grabbed a thin paintbrush and small tubs of paint to use for the corner. Immediately I set to work, I was going to make this look really sweet and cute. Sasuke kept glancing back at me but I wouldn't let him see what I was doing. Every so often I unconsciously stuck my tongue out in concentration.
The song changed to 'Your Song' by Ellie Goulding and I sang along to the song's lyrics, completely forgetting Sasuke was in the room. Once the adverts came on Sasuke complimented me "You sing really well." I grinned lightly blushing and even though I was completely and utterly embarrassed I thanked him anyway. After a while I finally finished and Sasuke came over to look. He read aloud "The Little Zoo" I nodded saying "This corner can be a little play area for kids whilst their parents or whoever are in the café, like that idea?" Sasuke nodded analysing the paint and replied "I like it." He glanced at me and said cheekily "But…you missed a spot." I frowned leaning closer to my painting and asked "Really? Where?" He smirked saying "Right…here." I scrunched my nose up as he tapped it with his finger that was lathered in blue paint. I playfully hit him on the back and we both paused after Sasuke caught my hand before I could hit him, a song came on that I hadn't heard in quite a long time 'When you taught me how to dance' by 'Katie Melua'
Sasuke looked away awkwardly and I whispered "Sasuke…" He ignored me and tugged me up to my feet; I stood and frowned at him, confused at what he was doing. He led me to the middle of the café room and put his hand on my waist and held my hand with his in the air. My eyes widened as he slowly taught me how to dance with him. It was amazing how a piece of music held us and melded us into a trance. We swayed magically to the music never once did blue not meet black, both swimming in their own sea depths of the others, drinking in the sight, getting lost in the sight of pure honesty that was being held. Eventually little smiles spread across our faces and before I knew it we were both leaning closer and closer. I didn't panic as he wouldn't let me, for a brief second I felt like I had never died and this was just another romantic time with Sasuke and before we knew it, we had closed that little distance, our eyes closing, letting our minds drift into their own wonders as our lips met.
It felt like time had stopped at that moment and before we both knew it, the kiss had ended, Sasuke let go of me just staring at me as if something or other had triggered in his mind. I grew scared by the second, I dashed out of the café, into the woods, through the wheat field and up into the tree where I thought on instinct that I would be safe. I sat there and cried to myself, how could I have been so stupid! Sasuke was going to hate me! Yet another part of me wished for Sasuke to have continued, to remember me, to find out his wife was really alive and wishing for him to remember.
I must have fallen asleep at one point because the next time I woke Sasuke was at the bottom of the tree and the sun was setting. He climbed up and sat down next to me, but still enough space between us to not be uncomfortable. He looked out at the sun that was setting to the night sky and I whispered "I'm sorry…I shouldn't have…" Sasuke looked at me replying "It's fine, I started it and we sort of both got lost in the moment…" His eyes held such confidence and comfort in those black midnight eyes, something I wished to drown in. My eyes widened slightly and nodded, he quietly spoke "If you want to cry, go on, I don't mind." I started sobbing and he brought me into his own warm hug, I cried into his shoulder, he smelt of fresh mint and he felt so safe, warm and comfortable. Once again I drifted off into sleep but this time…in his arms.
Sasuke softly smiled down towards the woman he had in his arms, he stroked her hair as he watched her bright blue eyes slowly close and felt her breath even out and he finally whispered…
"We really did get lost in the moment…eh dobe?"
