So, there my thanks are done. Here's the next chappie. Mind you I didn't re-do this at all eversince I wrote it last year. If anyone wants to read in advance go to gaiaonline and search for a thread at fanfiction forum under SasuNaru fanfic made by me, Nick_austin90.

"Naruto, this Shizune. She's from grandma's house. Shizune-san, this is my son, Naruto," Kushina introduced Naruto and Shizune.

"Douzo yoroshiku, Naruto-kun," Shizune said with a small bow and a smile.

"Kochira koso douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu," Naruto said as he too bowed.

"Shizune-san will be tutoring you about the wedding ceremony and etiquettes," Kushina said. "Do you know that we'll be doing the Screen Wedding?" Naruto nodded and Kushina seemed surprised. "How did you know?"

"My friends told me about it last week. Why is Shizune-san the one tutoring me? Why not Iruka-sensei?" Naruto asked. Kushina and Shizune exchanged looks. Kushina turned to her son with a fixed smile.

"Sweetie, you might be upset about this but you are going to be the bride," Kushina said apologetically.

Ah, so I was kind of right, Naruto thought. He nodded in understanding.

"I kind of, did, expect that mom," Naruto said with a smile. "So it's okay." Kushina smiled apologetically once more and kissed him before leaving him with Shizune. He looked over at Shizune and saw her looking at him with a smile.

"I haven't seen you since you were a baby, Naruto-kun. How are you?" Shizune asked. Naruto smiled back.

"Great," he said.

"That's good. Shall we begin then?" She asked and Naruto nodded.

"Your mother and I have made a mock Vow Room and we'll practice there. Come with me," Shizune said and Naruto followed her. They exited the current room and entered a room where a few screens were placed. His father awaited there with Iruka-sensei.

"Hey sports," Minato called and Naruto smiled when the other men greeted him too.

"Iruka-sensei, what are you doing here?" Naruto asked.

"Your father invited me to help you with the wedding practice. I'm going to be the one who will listen to the vows," Iruka explained. Naruto beamed.

"And what will you do, dad?" Naruto asked.

"It's customary that the fathers of both sides be present in the Vow Room. However, I will be sitting with the groom and his father. Shizune will be you escort and she will be sitting with you at the other side. So, off you go to the other side," Minato shooed him to the other side of the screen with Shizune trailing behind him.

"Okay, when you are in your wedding robes you'll also be wearing a veil. This is so that in case the screen broke, the veil will keep your face hidden. For now, a handkerchief will do," Shizune explained and produced a silk handkerchief and covered Naruto's head. "Now, it's crucial that you don't say even a word while the priest, Iruka-san in our case, talks to your fiancé and his dad and yours."

"Okay Iruka-san, Minato-san, you can begin." Shizune said to them from the other side. The door on the other side slid open and someone else entered. Naruto wanted to ask who it was but Shizune placed her forefinger on her lips telling him to be quiet.

"We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of two of the greatest family of our village, The Uchiha and The Namikaze. Will the fathers please state what the bride and the groom bring for each other so that their coming days are filled with joy and understanding," Iruka said. Unseen to Naruto, Minato and the other man faced each other and bowed their heads slightly.

"I, Namikaze Minato, shall speak for the bride;" Naruto badly wanted to blanch, "the bride offers devotion to the household and skill at running a household. The bride also brings skill at managing the groom's financial so that it may never be squandered if anything were to happen. The bride also brings skill with children so that one day when they shall have young ones, the bride can care for them." Minato bowed once again and was quiet.

"I, Uchiha Fugaku, will speak for the groom." A man with a gruff voice spoke. Naruto clearly did not know who he was. "He brings with him his mastery at weaponry as a job. He brings with him a house well furnished with anything that is necessary and he brings with him his honor and the honor of the Uchiha family. Along, he brings his trust for his bride to manage his life and house and a dowry for the bride." Fugaku nodded and stayed silent. Both Minato and Fugaku faced Iruka once again.

"Are the terms brought by the groom and the bride accepted by each father?"

"It is accepted," both men answered in unison.

"Then the groom shall please come forward and write your vow," Iruka said. After a second of silence a paper was handed at the end of the screen where Iruka was seated at. Shizune went and took.

"Now the bride shall write the vow," Iruka said and Naruto panicked. Shizune motioned him to be quiet with a smile and shook her head meaning not to worry. Then she handed the paper back to Iruka.

"The vows have been made. Now I shall let the bride and the groom read in silence." Iruka said and that part was skipped because Iruka just continued, "Now that the vow has been accepted by each, I pronounce the groom and bride as wedded." Unseen to Naruto, the two men bowed to each other and once again the door slid open and the other man, Uchiha Fugaku, left.

Naruto's eyes widened. Uchiha Fugaku! His fiancé's father! He had just heard the voice of his soon to be father-in-law!

"Well done, Naruto. I haven't heard you that quiet in forever," Minato laughed as he pushed the screen hiding his son the side. He saw Naruto's expression. "What?" he asked.

"W-was that man," Naruto gulped, "my future f-father-in-law?" Minato smiled.

"Yup. He told me he wanted to be here when we do rehearsals. So, what do you think? Of the ceremony I mean," Minato asked. Naruto looked around.

"Simple enough," Naruto said. "But why didn't you tell me that I had to write a vow?" Naruto asked Shizune heatedly. Shizune giggled.

"Don't worry, Naruto-kun. This isn't the real thing. We actually missed out a few other things besides the vow," Shizune said. Naruto looked at her in question but it was Iruka who answered.

"In the actual ceremony, the groom's father will also state what the dowry consists of. And also the groom will need to speak once after everything has been presented by the fathers. He will also add what he personally brings for the bride, which is you," Iruka said.

"Why didn't you tell me we were going to do a rehearsal in the first place? I thought I was allowed to ask questions while you guys go through with it," Naruto said.

"We just wanted to see how you'd do on the first try," Minato said with a small smile. Then he ruffled his son's hair into a very messy mop. "Your mother would have been proud at how you were doing," he smiled brightly at Naruto.

"How come mom wasn't in here?" Naruto asked.

"On the actual ceremony, she will be your escort. Today, however, she went out with your future mother-in-law for some extra shopping," Minato explained and Naruto flushed. He had heard his future father-in-law's voice today and his own father was speaking of his future mother-in-law. It was kind of embarrassing, and pleasant.

"S-so, do I have to make up my own vow or something?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, Shizune said. "Don't worry about it. You have 2 weeks to do that. You can ask your friends for help if you want to," she smiled.


There ya go. Just a tad bit intro to the ceremony.

RnR please!
