My goodness, it's been a long time since I've written a story that I actually wanted to post here! Anyway, the summary covers most of it. The main pairing is NaruHina, but I want side pairings! Here are the side couples:
ShikaIno
SasuSaku
Please review! And while you're at it, is LeeTen or NejiTen better?
Underneath the Hokages' Monument, ten mourners stood, each dressed in their finest black suits and dresses. After all, he deserved the best.
Neji glared at the gravestone. He was in the middle of the semi-circle, so he was able to view everyone's expressions. They were all sorrowful, but, damn him! He relaxed as a tiny hand gripped his weakly. He looked over at her, giving her hand a reassuring squeeze.
Hinata smiled at the ground after her older cousin responded to her so kindly. It was helping. Really. However, she was turned away from her thoughts by Kiba.
"Damn. I still- I still keep waiting to hear him come racing up behind us shouting about . . ."
". . . About how his alarm clock didn't go off, and how he had to rescue a kitten from a tree - he is hokage, and how he just barely had time to finish his usual ramen," Shikamaru completed.
"That's not reality anymore. Reality from this point on will be learning how to survive without Naruto."
Shino's words were as true as they were heartbreaking.
"Perhaps he'll be like the others," Tenten offered.
"No."
All eyes turned to the pink haired kunoichi.
"Naruto has never been like anyone else. Shino is right, this isn't like last time."
"Sakura," Sasuke whispered, pressing his stomach to her back and holding her tightly.
She welcomed the warmth really, because, for the past few days, she'd been feeling so cold . . .
