"Sarada! This is the last one, let's go!" Boruto called, having him carrying one midium box while his bunshin are going own from the building

Sarada was talking to a 70 year old landlady, she turn her gaze to the blonde guy

"Just go down first, I'll be there in a minute!"

He just shrugged and just went down as told, Sarada continue to talk with the landlady... a pleasing word of goodbye

"That young man sure is handy! You got good eyes!" The landlady wink

She laugh lightly, "We've known each other since birth, even thou we got together we still have the same attitudes towards one another!" Her smiles made her beautiful

The landlady saw how happy she is, just so happy that she wouldn't trade her current life in any price

"But still, you hit the jackpot! Aside from being the son of the Hokage, he is the hidden leaf's prince charming!... tell me, is he good at taking care of you?"

Sarada think for a moment, "I think I'm the one who's taking care of him," she smiled so assuring "So all the praises he gets must be credited for me!"

The lady infront of her threw a fit of a giggle, "shouldn't you be worrying that someone might steal him from you?"

By saying that she became a mute for a minute. It was the exact same question she ask herself. It was still just 3 months, even if they've been at each other's side since birth... she couldn't sat assured of this, it was a worst question to ever ask her

She just eyed the landlady, as if she didn't have her answers right, well it wasn't.

She slowly open her mouth but only air came out. She wanted to say something now, but how?

Her lips curve into a wide smile "then if he's loyal, he won't be easily sway off from his feet!"

The landlady saw how she hesitate to answer her from earlier. Even age that matters, she was indeed mature dispite being so young

The landlady was sure she was still unsure of her present situation. Shouldn't she be at least proud that she could hold hands with him? Kiss him everywhere on the face whenever she wants? Lean on his beating chest, hearing that pumping heart that only beats for her?

Her smiles still shows how hard she was doing it, the feeling of hesitation does give you stress no matter how you think its normal

"Well... better run along! Visit me sometimes! I can wait for a little hand clutching yours sooner!" She tease

Sarada had a shocking look while a pink stain was on her pale cheeks. She bent down to a bow

"I'll be on my way now!"

It was already night when they've finish unpacking...

"So tired!" The blonde boy sat lazily on the sofa, his hands hung on each side. Laid his head on the upper part of the sofa

"I told you I can manage! It's just some furniture to be place in its very location... there's nothing to fix here cause I already had the carpenters built the house last month?!" Sarada came back from her bedroom

"But you're missing one thing!" He sharply said

Sarada think, she've think the possible thing that could be missing but none.

"I'm not missing anything?!"

He raise his head and look directly on her onyx eyes. She was standing before him, eyes norrowed at some point

"You missed to put me here! Don't you want your 'husband' to be in a place where you see me everytime?"

Sarada's eyes became wide, she gave a chuckle that only became a insult to him.

"Husband? Boruto, why are you saying weird stuffs? From the past few months you've been calling me your 'wife'?! You're not going to propose are you? It's still a little early!"

Now she got curious, its not like the blonde infront of her is hiding something. Actually, it's not that bad to happened, isn't it?

Boruto mustn't tell the deal between his sensai. It was him who was willing to take a one year challenge to give her all his affection. He may not give the life of a complete without worries but he can give her the warmth that she needed.

In one year that she didn't complain, he would quickly drop on one knee and propose to her.

"Well, can't I call you that?"

Sarada cross her arms with a face of annoyance. "Is that what you called Sumire before?"

"NO!... the 'wife' term was specially reserve for you!" He quickly answered her

"So, from the very beginning it was only reserve for me?" Still on that bored face

He stand up, holding two of her hands and pulled her into a hug. He was light spinning her, like dancing in each other's embrace

"Jealousy will take you to nowhere, ya' know!"

"I'm not jealous! I'm just asking!" She utter down his head, her face was inside his jacket

"Like hell I'd believe you!"

Silent fell before them, they just hugging and swinging. It was a perfect night... well, every time she was with him seems like the world has an unending feeling of warmth. Her head was leaning against that hard chest of his

"Would you believe that I only have eyes for you?" Boruto's heart was beating fast. She could hear it, made her smile to the sound

"I cannot tell... you're a man, and you're you... I don't know what your thinking anyways!"

"But if I'm thinking about you always... would you feel at ease?"

"... but if some random girl tried to get you, would you still think of me?"

"As long as you're with me... no other girls can catch my attention other than you... my heart is your price possession and I know you'll cherish... and for that reason, I'll always be yours."

Her hands tighten the hug, snuggling her face into his warm  chest. She was cute, for him she was always cute

"You know, you're like a little bunny trying to snuggle into me?!"

"Can't I? Because as far as I know I have the rights thou!"

A glitch of familiar feeling in her sentence, "I think I've heard that before?!"

"Hn, I bet Sumire!" She just said it without her concern

"You're being jealous again!"

She didn't said another word. She let him say anything he wanted and she didn't mind.

Another night of him with her, another time to cuddle close from the cold aura of the night...
