Enjoy!

"Woah!" a certain blonde Jinchūriki yelped as he found himself yanked out of his seat at Ichiraku's, only to look up and see his boyfriend pulling him along. "Sasuke?"

"Hn." The Uchiha grunted.

"…You owe me a bowl of ramen, teme." Naruto huffed. "Mind telling me where we're going?"

"To the courthouse." He answered promptly, peeking his head out of the ally and checking for his horrible fangirls.

Naruto stared at Sasuke in utter shock, eyes open wide and mouth open, silently repeating the raven-haired boy's words.

"Excuse me?" he gasped.

There were few things that a ninja would go to a village courthouse for, since most things were handled by the Hokage.

The only thing he could think of would be—

"The council is trying to pass a decree to force me into the CRP, the Clan Restoration Program." Sasuke explained with a grimace, cutting off Naruto's train of thought before it could reach its destination.

Naruto flinched.

That was one aspect of their relationship that they hadn't talked about.

"Well…" the blonde began reluctantly. "You did say your ambition was to restore your clan."

It had to be said, no matter how much it hurt for him to do so.

He was surprised when Sasuke snorted dismissively.

"Ugh, please." The Uchiha heir shuddered a bit. "There's only one person I can stand having any physical contact with, much less that kind of physical contact, and I'm talking to him right now."

The blonde flushed a bit at his blunt statement, but a small smile found its way to his mouth.

"Continue…" Naruto urged, still not quite sure where this was going.

Sasuke rolled his eyes. "They're not just trying to get me to have little Uchiha heirs, but force me to marry some bimbo. That can't happen if I'm already married. The council can't force a divorce or annulment."

Naruto tripped as the full force of that statement hit him.

"The hell?!" he huffed out after a moment, regaining his balance. "That was the lamest proposal I've ever heard!"

Sasuke stopped, blinking at him in confusion, before a look of understanding graced his features, and he rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly.

"Ah." He said awkwardly. "I guess I did kind of jump the gun."

"Yeah, you did, teme." Naruto said wryly, crossing him arms. "Ask me, this time. Properly."

Sasuke took a deep breath and got down on one knee, pulling out a small black box from his weapons' pouch.

Naruto's eyes widened in shock.

Why did Sasuke have a ring? He'd made it sound like the council had only just announced their intentions, and that they needed to get married immediately in order to get around it.

Unless…

"I've had this for a while." Sasuke admitted with a shrug, confirming Naruto's suspicions. "Hadn't found the right time."

And an hour later…

"THE UCHIHA IS ALREADY MARRIED?!" one of the civilian council members roared furiously.

It surprised no one, considering the woman had offered up her own daughter as a candidate to be the Uchiha heir's future wife. Honestly, she probably would have offered up herself, if she could.

Tsunade's eyes glinted happily, though she kept her facial expression neutral.

She had been extremely irritated when a messenger had burst into their even more irritating council meeting,but with the news that two of the most prominent teenagers in Konoha had eloped, news she was more than happy.

Sasuke had found out about the council's plans, and instead of going along with them, he'd decided to stay loyal to Naruto.

Considering she still didn't quite trust him after he ran to join Orochimaru, this earned him a few brownie points from her. And Jiraiya. And Kakashi. And Iruka, when he heard about it later.

"Calm down, Kimiko." Another council member said calmly. "We simply have to annul their marriage."

"Actually…" Shikaku drawled with a bit of a smirk. "I doubt an annulment would be valid at this point."

The pair blinked in confusion before scowling as the implications of that statement hit them.

"A divorce, then." The woman said with an annoyed huff.

"Can't do that, either." Chouza butted in cheerfully. "Both parties have to sign the papers willingly."

"He went and got married to his boyfriend of six months, just so he didn't have to marry one of those creepily obsessive stalkers." Kakashi said, eyes 'smiling.' "A divorce is definitely not going to happen."

Chouza nodded in agreement.

"A boy who cannot give him heirs." The woman scoffed.

Tsunade shrugged. "The law is the law. I'm not about to break it for something as stupid as this. Besides, ever heard of surrogacy?"

At this, the woman's eyes brightened again.

"Don't bother offering your daughter again." Jiraiya called over his shoulder as he exited the chamber. "Those two are more than capable of choosing for themselves. If they even want kids."

"And if they don't, we have no authority to force them to." Tsunade added.

Both of them were well aware that the young couple were going to have kids someday. Naruto had always wanted a family, and though Sasuke had chosen him over a life married to a fangirl whose sole purpose in life was to pop out his kids, that didn't mean that he didn't want kids. If it was with the right person.

But the civilian council members didn't know that, and it was entertaining seeing them freak out about the prospect of losing the Sharingan forever.

The ninja side of the council knew better, however, and simply watched the show.
