A Bottle of Sake (Part 1)

Drunk!Sakura and exasperated yet hopelessly in love Sasuke. Part 2 is here!

“That’s when I said, ‘Naruto! I bet I can finish a whole bottle of sake faster than you!’ And what does that idiot do?” Sakura giggles, stumbling a little as she walks. Sasuke subtly reaches out his arm to prevent her from bumping into any unsuspecting pedestrians. She blinks at the arm around her shoulders, then grins up at him, cheeks flushed. “Thanks, Sasuke-kun. What was I saying again?”

His lips twitch upward. Ever so seriously he replies, “You told Naruto you could drink a bottle of sake faster than him.”

“Right!” she exclaims, waving a hand vigorously in the air. “And then he said, ‘Sorry, Sakura-chan, but there’s just no way. I’ll kick your ass.’” She rolls her eyes. “So we bet that if he could finish it faster than me, I would have to treat him out to ramen for a month. And if I beat him, he would have to finally confess his feelings to Hinata.” Standing a little straighter now, she huffs, “That poor girl has been in love with him for a decade! There’s no way I was going to let her down.”

Sasuke maneuvers both of them around a street vendor. “I’m guessing you won, then?”

“Damn right I did!” she yells. Sasuke has to stifle his laugh with a cough. “When I tell you I’ve never chugged anything so fast in my life, I mean it. That sake didn’t stand a chance.”

She looks absurdly proud of herself, and Sasuke decides not to tell her that the sake seems to have done some damage as well. He’s never seen her so drunk. 

“And you know what that bastard said to me after I won?” Sakura looks up at him with indignant eyes. “He said he’d already confessed to her! They’ve been dating for a whole two days now, Sasuke-kun, and I had no idea.” Her shoulders slump. She bows her head and whispers, sounding utterly heartbroken, “I’ve never felt so betrayed.”

Sasuke lets out a laugh before he can catch himself. He can’t help it—drunk Sakura amuses him immensely and he’s dreading the moment they reach her apartment and have to go their separate ways.

Sakura’s head whips up at the sound of his laugh and he schools his features into careful indifference, staring straight ahead as she gapes at him. 

“Did you—did you just laugh at me, Uchiha Sasuke?” she asks, incredulous. 

“Perhaps,” he responds cooly, but he knows she sees the way he fights to keep his lips from curving.

“Wait.” His arm falls from her shoulders as she comes to a sudden stop in the road. He turns to find her grinning at him, all too excited. “Do it again.”

He raises a brow. “Do what again?”

“Laugh!” She points an accusing finger at him. “After all these years the great and stoic Uchiha laughed in my presence and I didn’t even see it! Can you do it again? Pretty please?” 

She gives him her best impression of a puppy. Sasuke’s shocked to find that he nearly gives in to her. He clears his throat to collect himself. “Stop joking around, Sakura,” he says sternly. “Let’s go.”

Now she pouts, crossing her arms over her chest. “Not until you laugh again.”

Sasuke sighs. “Come on. We’re almost to your apartment.”

Sakura lifts her chin and promptly begins walking in the opposite direction. “Fine,” she says haughtily. “You can go home, then. I’m going back to the bar.”

Sasuke watches her in amusement. “Sakura,” he calls. “I’m giving you three seconds to come back here. Three.”

She turns around for a moment to stick her tongue out at him. 

“Two.”

Her hand goes up, middle finger raised. 

“One.”

Sakura squeals as she’s lifted off her feet and into Sasuke’s arms. He enjoys seeing the shock on her face when she registers that he’s now carrying her bridal style toward her apartment. He enjoys the way her cheeks flush at their close proximity even more.  

“Y—you sneaky bastard,” she breathes. 

“I gave you three seconds,” he responds matter-of-factly. “You didn’t listen.”

She opens her mouth to argue, then closes it. “Well,” she finally mumbles, “I guess I can think of worse punishments than this.”

This time when Sasuke laughs he doesn’t hold back. He tilts his head back, shoulders shaking, and there’s even tears in his eyes by the time he’s done.

His gaze locks with Sakura’s when he feels her brushing one of his tears away with her finger. She looks at him in pure, unrestrained awe.

And then, to his horror, she begins to cry.

“What’s wrong, Sakura?” he questions, thinking he’s hurt her somehow. 

She buries her face in her hands and sobs, “I have never been so happy in my life. How is this possible, Sasuke-kun?”

He relaxes slightly. “How is what possible, Sakura?” he asks in exasperation. 

She raises her head. Helplessly she says, “How is it that I’ve fallen in love with you even more? I didn’t think it was possible, yet here we are.” 

The words are a balm to his soul—they flood him with warmth, uplifting him, and he tightens his arms around her. 

He thinks of Naruto, his idiot of a friend who finally found it in him to confess to the girl who loves him after years of loving her back without her knowing.

And Sasuke thinks it’s about damn time he did the same.

“Tomorrow,” he tells Sakura—a promise. She wipes her tears away and eyes him in obvious confusion. “When you’re sober.”

“Huh? What are you talking about, Sasuke-kun?”

He simply replies, “You’ll see.”

And as she tries to bully it out of him, Sasuke thinks to himself that if his laugh was enough to make her cry out of sheer happiness, he cannot wait to see what she’ll do when he confesses.

Tomorrow couldn’t come fast enough.

AUs you didn't know you needed until now | SasuSaku

Well, in my opinion at least :P

In no particular order:

Sweet Cherry by @beatoneheart​ - It is not easy to be the daughter of Don Haruno nor to be the son of Don Uchiha, and it is certainly not easy to unite two of the most feared mafia families through marriage. (on going)

TRCG Note: This is basically an “Italian Mafia AU” for all Godfather’s fans out there. Plus: arranged marriage between powerful families, which is a treat itself! Their friendship is blossoming and growing into partnership.. it’s a slow burn of course. 🥰

🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅

Trial and Error by Manhattan Chase - Life as an associate at Konoha's most revered law firm was hard enough without Sasuke Uchiha showing up. (Slow burning / on going)

TRCG Note: Both Sakura and Sasuke are lawyers. They knew each other - barely - but things starts to heat up when an unexpected change happens in the law firm Sakura works, pushing them to work closely. They hate each other, and then they don’t, and then they do.. you know the drill. Delicious slow burn! 🔥

🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅

For A Cup Of Caramella by @beatoneheart​ - "Let me wake up next to you, have coffee in the morning and wander through the city with your hand in mine, and I'll be happy for the rest of my […] life." ― Charlotte Eriksson.

TRCG Note: This was surprisingly addictive! This is a Civilian/Kunoiche AU, first of the kind as far as I could find (correct me if I’m wrong), as most of the times Sakura is portrayed as the civilian. Sasuke has his own load of issues as does Sakura, and they don’t exactly fit in this world that’s half shinobi/half civilian, but they will try to make do. Lovely, and so heartbreaking *sigh*. Hopefully we’ll get an update some of these days! (*wink* *wink*, dear author-san!). Ahh quick warning/note: most of the characters’ personalities are reversed!

🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅

Bet Wrong by xRaianx - Who knew Tsunade's gambling problem would rub off on the wrong member of Team seven. (Shinobi AU / not-fully-canon compliant / completed!)

TRCG Note: Ok, this is a gigantic two-shot with many twists and surprises - you won’t be able to put it down! It’s also funny, fluffy and light-hearted. Give a shot to the unpredictable tale that ‘Bet Wrong’ brings us! ❤️

🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅

Hooked by pastel daisies Even as the chief of police's son, he didn't think he would get pulled over on a speeding ticket. Or felt up by an attractive police officer, that is. But by then, he was already hooked, and completely addicted. (one-shot completed).

TRCG Note: Ok, Cop!Sakura is 🔥🔥🔥! This one-shot is a big tease and it’s fun to see they dancing around each other. It was refreshing to read Sakura in another profession, and see how she got Sasuke wrapped around her finger. 😝

🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅🌸🍅

Fruition by @xxsilverechoxx​ - "B-but that's your woman, teme!" Naruto splutters. "Shouldn't you defend her honor or something? Those bastards are nearly salivating over her!" "Let them salivate all they want," Sasuke replies, smug. "I can't blame them." Such is the life of young, beautiful soccer players and their supportive boyfriends. (One-shot. Soccer AU)

TRCG Note: The girls are in a soccer team! and the boys are cheering and drooling! haha. This is an AU I never thought about before and it’s nice to see their dynamics, specially the boys proudly defending and cheering their girls. 😍

Hope you guys enjoy these stories! Make sure to drop a review with your thoughts, I’m sure the authors will love it! ❤️

~ Happy Reading!
