~~~~~flashback
"Teme!"
Sasuke was leaving the hospital from checking his wife. The baby was suppose to be coming in a few weeks. The fifth Hokage was informing him that he needed to make sure that Karin stay rested and she can't use any of her chakra at all.
"Hn." Sasuke said when the blonde caught up with him.
"So what are you doing here?" Naruto asked.
"I went to check on Karin. They wouldn't let her out the hospital for some reason."
"Oh..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...so...how did you meet Karin?" Naruto asked, not comfortable with the silence.
"Karin was part of my group when I was with Orochimaru. With her unlimited source of chakra to give, it was only natural that I marry her so I can revive my clan."
"Was you wedding anything special?" Naruto asked.
"Hn."
"Do you even love her?"
"Hn.'
"Come on Sasuke you got to do better than this. Hinata-chan's and my wedding was amazing! Even Neji, the once cold-hearted Hyuga is doing better than you!"
Sasuke raised an eyebrow at Naruto, but Naruto was too busy talking to notice.
"In fact, his porposal to Sakura almost scared her to death."
"When did he porpose to her?" Sasuke asked, his interest a little peaked.
"Immediately after the first war. He must have been 16 by then. It was surprising that he had everything planned out before he even went to war..."
~~~~~flashback~~~~~
Neji limped to the hospital room still clad in his ANBU outfit. He and Naruto just came back from the first was against Sound. He and Naruto fought against Sasuke in the final battle. Naruto had Neji leave the area to ise his last move, the giant rasengan, on Sasuke, who was using chidori.
After the blinding light faded, Sasuke, Orocjimaru, and the rest of the Sound nin that survived fled while Neji had some of comrads carry an unconcious Naruto home. The war was over, and Konaha won.
When his team/army(?) came back to Konaha, he sent his teamates to bring Naruto to the hospital to get healed. Neji believed that the gash on his side wasn't that bad, so he bandaged it himself and left the hospital. He had something to do before he met Sakura.
Now with that task done, he went back to the hospital to check on Naruto. Before he opened the door, he heard Naruto talking to someone, or more like arguing with them.
"What do you mean you don't know where he went!?" The voice he soon found out it was Sakura's said. Her voice was filled with horror and anger.
"I'm sorry Sakura-chan, I don't know what happened. Neji and I were fighting Sasuke and then I clashed my giant rasengan to Sasuke's chidori and when the bright lightseemed to fade, I didn't see him and I fell unconcious."
"You guys didn't try looking for him?" Sakira's voice was desperate.
"I woke up in the hospital. I tried asking the team if they saw him, but they said they didn't know where he went."
There was a pause. And then foot steps towards the door.
"Sakura-chan, where are you going?"
"I'm going to look for him. I need to know where he is. I...I can't loose him..."
Neji's heart sunk. She's still looking for the Uchiha.
He thought that she would have at least gotton over the traitor since they were together for over a year, but that just wasn't the case.
Before he could turn to leave, the door whipped opened, amd he was staring into shocked, slightly red and puffy, emerald eyes.
"N-neji?" Was her startled reply.
Before he could say anything, Sakura's eyes were filling with tears again before she jumped on him. "Neji-kun!"
Neji was so surprised at her actions that he lost balance and fell on his butt with Sakura on top of him. Sakura took his head in her hands and kissed him fiercely.
"Baka! Don't you EVER scare me like that again!" She practically yelled at him. Then her eye started to water again "I thought...I-I thought I lost you...I-I thought y-you were...were..." she collapsed in tears on his chest as she clinged to him.
Neji's eyes widen in relization. She wasn't looking for the traitor, she was looking for him! He still needed to know for sure though.
"What about the Uchiha?" He said to her softly as he rubbed her back.
"What about him?" She replied and Neji smiled. That's all he needed her to say.
"Nothing..." he said as he kissed and answered back hungrily.
"Ah...there you are Neji. Everyone was saying you dissapeared after the battle." Naruto said as he came out of his resting room. He was bandaged everywhere except his face.
"Where did you go?" Sakura said as she found and healed the gash that was poorly bandaged under his ANBU vest.
"I had to go get something before I saw you." Neji said. Sakura raised an eyebrow when Neji reached into his pocket and pulled out a velvet box.
"Neji...?" Sakura questioned, sitting up from him a little but still is straddeling his legs.
"Sakura, I know that we only been together for over a year, but the life of a ninja is unexpectantly short..." Neji opened the box to show a diamond ring. Sakura gasped.
"Sakura, would you marry me?" Sakura was speechless for several seconds before tears began to form in her eyes. Neji, thinking that she was rejecting him, was getting ready to apologize.
"Saku-"
Neji's apology was interupted when the pink-haired medic nin jumped on him again.
"Yes..." she whispered in his ear. Neji sighed in relief as he hugged her. He pulled apart from just a little so their eyes can meet.
"I love you..." Neji said. Sakura giggled as Neji kissed her.
"I love you too."
~~~~~end flashback~~~~~
Naruto smiled at the memory. "No one could pull them apart after that. At least Sakura-chan is happy now huh Sasuke?"
"..."
"...Sasuke?" Naurto looked around to find that Sasuke was long gone.
"Teme!" Naruto yelled at nothing. "Don't leave me when 'm talking to you!"
