"Won't your family say anything?" Naruto asked as they walked to the breakfast table side by side.
"Like what?" Sasuke questioned.
"Maybe they won't want you to marry me?" Naruto questioned.
"Nonsense," Sasuke smirked. "Look at you. You are the best for me."
Naruto's cheeks turned pink. "Uhm, thank you."
"Accept it," Sasuke teased. "I'm also the best for you."
Naruto huffed. "Your ego could kill people, you know."
Sasuke chuckled. "But all I want to do is actually impress you. Do I impress you Naruto?"
Naruto rolled his eyes but couldn't help the giggle that escaped his mouth. "A bit."
"A bit is not enough," Sasuke's face fell jokingly. "Did I tell you about the time where I killed a dragon with my bare hands?"
"Pfft," Naruto laughed merrily. "Now you impressed me."
"I'm glad," Sasuke smiled as they entered the room. Unlike dinner, there was nobody besides maids to serve them.
"But seriously," Naruto nodded at the maid as she poured tea for him. "Won't they at least want to meet with me?"
"You are right," Sasuke nodded. "We'll go to see them once we get married."
"Okay," Naruto nodded. They started eating as they talked about useless things.
It was nice, Naruto thought. Never before someone had taken him serious and talked to him this much. Never before someone had made him laugh this carelessly. Never before had he felt this close to anyone.
Maybe they were the best match for each other as Sasuke insisted.
"You..." Naruto moved in his seat uncomfortably after the breakfast. "You want to have an heir, don't you?"
Sasuke gazed at Naruto with the corners of his eyes and then smirked. "Yeah, what about it?"
Naruto shrugged as he looked down.
Smirk widening, Sasuke faced his future bride. "Don't you want to have a baby? Our love's fruit?"
Naruto rolled his eyes and slapped Sasuke's arm softly. "Don't be shameless."
Sasuke chuckled. "No, but think about it..."
Naruto blinked as he looked up to his soon to be husband.
"A baby," Sasuke whispered. "A life that you and I created. A human being that will completely depend on you. He will always need you. He will always want you. He will always love you... Don't you want to have a baby, Naruto?"
Naruto nodded as if mesmerized. "I do."
Sasuke smiled as he brushed Naruto's bangs back slowly. "I think our baby will be so lovely. What do you think?"
"Yes," Naruto squeaked. "M-Maybe he will have your eyes."
"My eyes," Sasuke smiled as he caressed Naruto's cheeks. "Do you like my eyes, Naruto?"
"I do," Naruto admitted with a soft blush.
"Well thank you," Sasuke smiled, showing off pearly teeth. "I like them as well."
Naruto was speechless for a moment. "Bastard!"
Sasuke started laughing loudly as he tried to avoid Naruto's fists and slaps. In the end, he managed to hug Naruto into his chest, stilling his movements.
"You are so cute when you're angry," Sasuke said as he kissed Naruto's hair.
Naruto struggled against the prince but Sasuke only held on tighter.
"You should get used to hearing these things Naruto," Sasuke said. "You are beautiful. You are cute. You are so lovely."
Naruto blushed deeply as he looked up to the dark prince.
Sasuke smirked again before leaning over and capturing Naruto's pink lips with his own. Naruto's eyes widened and he tried to push Sasuke off but it was no use. Sasuke had trapped him in his iron grip and his lips were persistent. He moved them against the blonde prince's and kissed him again and again.
Naruto was too shocked to do anything at first but then Sasuke's kisses softened his own lips and the warmness made him lightheaded. He could never knew that a kiss could make him feel this much but it did. It felt like he was melting.
He was rather startled when the door suddenly opened and he broke apart from Sasuke, but the bigger male didn't let go of him, only turned his head to the source of the disturbance.
Sakura stood at the doorway with wide eyes.
"What?" Sasuke grunted. "How dare you enter inside without permission?"
"Uhmm..." Sakura looked down.
"I should have your head for this disrespect," Sasuke hissed, making her flinch.
"Stop the nonsense," Naruto said as he slapped Sasuke's chest. "I'm sure she didn't know we are here."
Sasuke wasn't so sure about it, but still, he didn't want to go against his bride's wishes.
"What is it?" Sasuke asked.
"The soldiers ask for your presence about a pressing matter," Sakura said quickly.
Sasuke sighed deeply. "Very well."
The moment he let his arms drop to the sides, Naruto realized how much he liked having them around him. They made him feel so warm, so safe, so wanted...
"I'm sorry, Naruto," Sasuke apologized. "I'll see what's this about and then we can discuss our ceremony."
"Okay," Naruto nodded and waved as Sasuke left along with Sakura.
Letting out a deep sigh, Naruto grabbed a green apple from the table and left the dining room. He wasn't sure what to do. Back in the temple, the priests would always work him around. Sometimes he wouldn't have a free moment to scratch his head but now he had countless servants to do anything and everything. He had so much free time that it was maddening.
Then again, after Sasuke entered his life, Naruto hadn't have a single boring moment. It was so strange. Sasuke was a foreigner to his life but he had colored it so nicely that Naruto couldn't think of going on without him anymore.
Sasuke had promised him everything Naruto could ask for, so he didn't want to let go of the man. Naruto was sure that they could work out everything together and maybe build a beautiful life for each other and their future family.
Naruto entered his room as he hummed to himself and walked to his bathroom, deciding to take a shower to kill some time. The warm water relaxed him further and he cleansed his long hair gently. As the strands took the water, they darkened and darkened, creating a breathtaking contrast against his fair skin.
He left the bathroom after putting on a thin yukata. He wrapped up his hair with a soft towel and moved to sit before the fireplace. He frowned as he heard shouts coming from out side of his room. With a sigh, he stood up and went to the door. He raised an eyebrow at the scenery that greeted him.
Sakura had her arms wrapped around Sasuke and she was trying to kiss him as the prince was trying to push her off.
"What's happening?" Naruto asked as he folded his arms over his chest. The towel slid onto his shoulders with the movement but he didn't bother to tidy it up.
Sasuke took Naruto's sight in. His hair looked longer in this state and the wet locks were reaching to his little of back. He had probably wore the yukata when he wasn't dry yet because it stuck to his skin at some parts, making Sasuke's mouth water.
"Well?" Naruto shook his head, demanding an answer.
Sasuke shoved the woman back and approached his soon to be bride. "I think I can explain."
Naruto rolled his eyes and entered his room.
He didn't close the door and Sasuke took that as an invitation. He walked inside after Naruto and with a second thought, he locked the door behind him.
Naruto sat on his bed and grabbed a comb, running it through his hair furiously.
Letting out a sigh, Sasuke sat beside Naruto and took the comb from his hands. "Let me..."
Ever since lying his eyes on him, Sasuke had wanted to touch Naruto's hair. He moved the comb gently along the long tresses. They were so soft... He couldn't help but lean down and bury his nose in them, inhaling the sweet scent deeply.
It was intoxicating.
"She's a part of my elite warriors," Sasuke whispered against those golden locks. "And sometimes my bed partner."
Naruto gritted his teeth. "Then you should marry with her. Isn't it what she wants also?"
"But I don't want her," Sasuke said as he wrapped his arms around Naruto's small frame. "I want you."
"Because you want the kingdom," Naruto pointed it out.
"No, it's already mine, you've given it to me, remember?" Sasuke nuzzled Naruto's nape.
"Then what?" Naruto squeaked.
"Told you, Naruto," Sasuke smiled. "We're the best for each other. I want to marry you because I simply want to."
Naruto huffed. "You are a bastard who is good with words."
"And your husband soon," Sasuke said with a smirk. "And the father of your children."
"Shut up," Naruto elbowed Sasuke's stomach harshly. "Go away, I'll take a nap."
With that, Naruto opened the sheets and curled up on the bed. He closed his eyes and stopped all of his movement, waiting to fall asleep. He frowned as he felt the bed dipping and then there was another body pressing against his.
He opened his eyes and came face to face with Sasuke's smug expression.
"I don't remember inviting you," Naruto said, his eyes twitching.
"I thought we should practice," Sasuke smirked. Holding Naruto closer, he closed his eyes. "Sweet dreams."
Naruto rolled his eyes.
He couldn't get any sleep as he found himself watching Sasuke's serene face instead.
Their ceremony was a small one. Still, it was held in the heart of the city so every individual could witness their union.
Sasuke had attended many ceremonies and occasions all through his life as a prince, but none of them had made him feel this way. Especially he couldn't tear his gaze away from his bride. He was beyond any beauty this world could offer. His white robes swished with the soft wind and his unkempt hair fell around his shoulders like a waterfall. There were flowers and ornaments in his hair which were all white.
When Naruto stood before Sasuke, he couldn't help but laugh gently.
"What is it, prince?" Naruto asked teasingly. "Cat got your tongue?"
A slow smirk covered Sasuke's face. Naruto was the perfect match for him. He was probably chosen by heavens to be Sasuke's spouse.
"Yes," Sasuke admitted easily. "I'm lost before your beauty."
Naruto rolled his eyes as he held Sasuke's offered hand. His husband was wearing completely black, contrasting with Naruto beautifully.
"Isn't it a nice day to get married to your dream prince?" Sasuke asked as they kneeled before the altar.
Naruto rolled his eyes again.
"How about you?" Naruto asked as the priest started talking, addressing them but the two were too busy talking to listen to him. "It's not like everyday you can catch an easy candidate like me."
Sasuke smirked. "You are not easy. I was scared for a moment there that you would actually refuse me."
Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Really? You never show it, you know."
"Years of training," Sasuke smirked.
"Then you should teach me," Naruto said.
"No," Sasuke chuckled. "I wouldn't want to corrupt you... yet."
Naruto couldn't help but laugh lightly at that. "Should I fear marrying you?"
"You probably should," Sasuke nodded. "But I won't let you go."
Naruto opened his mouth for a comeback but the priest cleared his throat loudly, looking at the couple pointedly.
Naruto blushed softly and looked down as Sasuke smirked.
Naruto didn't hear what the priest said after that moment. He held onto Sasuke's offered hand tightly and repeated after whatever priest wanted. Soon, they were standing up and Sasuke was smiling smugly at him.
"You are mine now," He whispered as he leaned down to kiss Naruto's forehead.
Naruto only smiled.
They turned together and greeted the people, their people together. Everybody looked happy for their union. They were all cheering and clapping their hands excitedly. So this was his country now... Naruto looked up as he felt Sasuke squeezing his hand. This was his family now. Naruto squeezed back and smiled.
He couldn't believe how his life changed in such a short time. In just two months, he had left his prison. He had found a home and a family.
Naruto walked through the crowd as Sasuke led him. There was a huge feast for everyone to enjoy. The newly wed couple also joined the people and for a long while, all could be heard was the music and laughter.
"Let's retire," Sasuke whispered into his spouse's ear and Naruto nodded with pink cheeks.
They stood up and left the festival together, going to their newly assigned chambers. The room was big and very much like Naruto's old one but Naruto guessed that the bed was bigger than his former one.
"So..." Naruto took a deep breath.
"So?" Sasuke stood before his bride and started taking off his hair decorations.
"Your coronation is tomorrow, right?" Naruto asked as Sasuke's hands moved in his hair.
"Mhhm," Sasuke nodded.
Naruto sighed softly. "You'll be too busy, right?"
"Yeah," Sasuke nodded. "What about it?"
"I just get really bored by myself," Naruto mumbled honestly.
"Oh," Sasuke cupped Naruto's cheeks and caressed them distractedly for a while. And then, a smirk appeared on his face. "I know how to keep you occupied just fine."
"Really?" Naruto smiled. "How?"
"We are going to make a baby right away," Sasuke said easily.
"What?" Naruto squeaked.
"Yes," Sasuke kissed the tip of Naruto's nose. "That way, you will be too busy with taking care of our baby to actually get bored."
Naruto considered Sasuke's words for a moment. "Y-You are right," He admitted with a blush.
"Of course," Sasuke smirked and run his hands through Naruto's free locks.
Naruto nodded, his blush deepening as Sasuke leaned down to kiss his cheeks.
"I think we should start... like now," Sasuke whispered as he untied Naruto's obi.
Naruto nodded and didn't protest as his husband stripped him down.
It was silent for a while.
"You are so beautiful," Sasuke whispered in awe as he took is spouse in his arms.
Naruto closed his eyes and let Sasuke convince him.
Naruto opened his eyes slowly. The sun was kissing his naked shoulders, disturbing him slightly. He tried to move away and strong arms wrapped around him tighter, drawing him against a naked chest.
Naruto opened his eyes wider and gazed at his husband's sleeping face, his heart skipping a beat.
Naruto had fallen in love.
Last night, he fell for his husband. He fell for his touches. He fell for his care. He fell for his gentleness. He fell for his bottomless eyes.
He caressed his jawline and bit his lips as his husband stirred. Naruto didn't want to wake him up yet.
Sasuke parted his eyes slightly. He looked down to see his lover watching him with soft eyes.
"Naruto," He croaked and held him closer. "It's still early, go back to sleep."
Naruto nodded and pressed his face against Sasuke's chest as his husband buried his nose in his tangled hair, taking gulps of air, inhaling Naruto's addictive scent again and again.
The next Naruto opened his eyes, he found his husband's intense eyes watching him.
"Good morning," Naruto sighed sleepily.
"Morning," Sasuke replied, kissing Naruto's forehead.
Naruto cupped Sasuke's cheek and caressed it with a smile.
Sasuke couldn't help but smile back. He knew that this union with Naruto would be a blessing and he wasn't wrong.
"How are you?" Sasuke asked as he held Naruto tighter.
"Fine," Naruto smiled. "I think we should get up. Your ceremony will start soon."
"Ah, yeah," Sasuke blinked. "I had forgotten about that."
Naruto giggled. "Married for only a day and you can't think anything besides me?"
Sasuke smirked. "Well, I know my priorities."
Naruto smiled softly. He sat up first and listened to his body for a moment. Only his hips were hurting a bit but it was normal, as Sasuke had told him last night. Naruto was raised in a temple so of course he was foreign to the bodily pleasures but Sasuke was happy to show him.
Sasuke stood up and turned around the bed, helping Naruto up.
"Put on something!" Naruto cried as his husband led him to the bathroom.
"Why?" Sasuke smirked. "We need to take a shower."
"Together?" Naruto blushed deeply.
"From now on, always," Sasuke promised as he started the water.
Naruto watched from where he stood as the head adviser placed a fancy looking crown on Sasuke's head. His husband stood up, gave him a smile and turned around, facing the crowd of people who were watching his coronation.
He clapped his hands and walked to his king's side as Sasuke held out a hand. He smiled at him and his eyes widened as Sasuke put a crown over his head.
"Sasuke, I-"
"It's okay," Sasuke soothed. "You are my consort. You need to be by my side even if you don't do anything about it, okay?"
Naruto nodded reluctantly.
"Don't worry," Sasuke smiled. "I'll take care of everything."
Naruto nodded again. Taking a deep breath, he put on a smile and waved at his cheering people alongside with his husband.
Sasuke grabbed Naruto's hand as tight as he could. He had done it finally. He had defied his own destiny and become a king on his own. And along the way, he had conquered the most beautiful queen of all. Naruto looked perfect as he stood beside him. He looked breathtaking. Sasuke couldn't wait to spend more time with him. He wanted to own him completely.
When he felt his stare, Naruto looked up to his husband.
He gave him a shiny smile and Sasuke knew that it was Naruto who already owned him, not the other way around.
This is a sweet romance story, isn't it? No angst before love as I normally like lol. I'm saving the good, old angst for other stories. Hold on tight, see you next week!
