A huff of annoyance escaped your lips before you put on another fake smile, greeting the next donor. This was your friends "genius concoction of a plan" to gain donations for her family's sponsored charity: The Konoha Animal Refuge.

"Thank you for donating to the KAR, your contribution is much appreciated," you droned before licking your lips and leaning in for the kill.

Yes, you were working at a kissing booth. When your best friend asked you to volunteer with her at the local carnival for charitable purposes, you jumped at the idea. Yet you had no idea she had this in store for you. But it was too late to turn back, and as much as you were appalled at the idea of kissing strangers, the smooch booth definitely captured a lot more attention, and donations, as opposed to any other effort.

But you felt compelled to bail on the idea. Why would you lip lock strangers when there's only one special someone in mind? Of course, it's too late to go back now; your first kiss has already been blown on someone whom you have no recognition for their identity.

Yet still, your heart swelled just thinking about the one who holds your heart, although at the same time a vein became just a little more pronounced on your forehead in annoyance with your current status. It's true, and to your dismay that, the one and only Sasuke Uchiha has you smitten.

And we are all aware of Sasuke's personality; the poor boy is just too stubborn to love. He pushes people away and treats those willing to get close like dirt. He does everything and anything in his power to keep those at bay, preventing any relationship from forming. Although, you're fairly stubborn yourself, and clingy I may add. It was inevitable that a person as you would get attached to Sasuke so easily, which resulted in the formation of a one sided bond. Still, Sasuke pushes you away, and over and over again you try to win him over. You're very charming, and persuasive, yet you struggle in obtaining your goal. You're so drawn to him, but he's put up this fortress around him, guards and all, just to keep you away. And today was your last straw. You walked away from him, we all know it won't be long before you go running back, but still...

You pulled away from another unknown soul whom you allowed your lips to belong to for several seconds. Making sure to divert your attention away from the man, you took his money and greeted yet the next stranger. While you were on the verge of tears, your friend was in high spirits; this has been the most successful charity effort ever put into play. There wasn't a thing you could do to make yourself feel better, and even though your friend was ecstatic, a pang of guilt wracked you body for feeling nothing but dejection.

But when I said you walked away, leaving Sasuke to wallow in his own self pity and desolation, I forgot to mention how you didn't exactly leave on "good terms".

You began to feel more and more guilty; the emotion consuming your entire being. You're a very sensitive and empathetic person, and you couldn't help but feel as if you committed a great crime. Even though in real life, standing up to the Uchiha was something that needed to be done in order to preserve what little self respect the boy may have left.

Your hands gripped the length of your shorts as the gut wrenching feeling took over, while in your mind echoed the poem of destruction you serenaded the one you "love" with:

"You are not depressed, get out of bed. Stop thinking you are special for being broken. You think you're the one with fragile bones? What about me? I try to give you everything yet all you do is use your darkness as an excuse not to love me back. I tried to fix you, I tried to help you, yet all you did was push me away. And it hurts, to know that you will never look at me the way I look at you. So remember, the only thing wrong with you is your selfishness. I'm walking away so you can have the perfect view of the knife you left in my back."

As your heart rate increased and icy cold sweat ran down your neck, you failed to notice who stood in front of you. A startled gasp escaped your friends lips and a flash of raven locks crossed your line of vision, before your lips were captured in a tender embrace.

Tears ran down your face, as the raven haired Uchiha pressed his lips to yours softly, winding his fingers through the length of your chestnut locks. Sasuke's mouth eased yours open and right then and there, there was a moment where the world stopped for only the briefest of times and the only thing between you two was the anticipation of the kiss. Of his lips on your own, a moment so tense it hangs in the air, pulling you two closer. A moment so perfect, it felt as if it was being experienced in slow motion, and all of a sudden, it was as if you both were yanked back down to earth, all sense of consciousness returned.

Sasuke lips pressed harder and harder against yours, and with only a brief moment, he had you on the opposite side of the booth, his fingernails digging into the fabric of your shirt hugging your hips, as your legs wrapped around his torso.

Against your lips Sasuke mumbled "I needed you. I needed your body pressed against mine, your warmth, your smell; the taste of your kiss. My hands wrapped around your curves." And he did.

As you both broke for a air, it was as if every single person waiting in the line at the stands held their breath, for they all exhaled at once. You wondered if they felt what you felt, but there is no way they experienced the same spark, that same course of adrenaline spike through their veins the way you did.

Sasuke gently set you back on your feet, experiencing a euphoric energy not even close to imitating how any hardcore drug could possibly effect the human mind and body, as he clasped his hands around your own. And as your friend waved you off, a small smile of understanding on her lips at your early departure, a sudden realization struck you:

"Sasuke, what about your donation?"
