SasuPoV
I supported my wife as she walked and slyly looked around at the people we had left.
I had rescued her from Sound prison, where Orochimaru was torturing her a year after she had been captured. A half year later, I asked her to marry me, and she accepted. We've been married for only a year and a half. And it's been a good year and a half. We traveled, mostly in silence, and I observed the couples that had gotten together in my six years of absence.
They were all pretty predictable.
Naruto and Hinata. Naruto kept glancing over at us, then back at Hinata, who was holding his hand. I was surprised he hadn't tried to hug us yet. Hinata, unsurprisingly, was quiet.
Neji and Tenten. He looked stoic, as always, and she was talking, low, where I couldn't hear. They were holding hands, as well, and he would occasionally kiss her on the cheek.
Shikamaru and Ino. She was about to cry, and she kept stealing glances at us, then looking back at Shikamaru, who put his arm around her shoulders.
Lee was alone, and I was surprised he hadn't professed his love for Sakura yet. I'd have to beat him.
Kakashi-sensei looked utterly miserable. Sakura did remember him, I knew, but she didn't know how to react to him. I'd have to talk to her about all of these people later.
We arrived in Konoha and Sakura and I were taken to the Hokage's office.
We saw Lady Tsunade, and I wondered how Sakura would react to seeing her again.
Sakura let out a whoop of joy, limping into Tsunade's open arms. Tsunade hugged her tight, and she said, "Oh, Sakura, I'm so glad you're back home. I missed you so much, sweetheart. What happened to you?"
Sakura almost toppled over again, exhausted and in pain. She extended a hand to me. I took it, and Tsunade said, "Oh, let's sit down."
We sat on the couch, and Tsunade said, "Tell me everything, sweetie." She looked at Sakura expectantly, who looked at me. She stayed silent, not knowing exactly what to say. Finally, she took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what to say. I don't remember a lot of my life before Sound. Sasuke has tried to remind me, but I have a brain injury, and I have a lot of undiagnosed psychological problems… I don't know how to react to all this. I'm still trying to process being back in Konoha."
She yawned. Tsunade blinked, then nodded sadly. "I understand. You're exhausted. You need some rest. Then, tomorrow, you'll start your medical and psychological examinations, okay?"
Sakura nodded and leaned back into my arms. "Oh, and one more thing. You'll have constant surveillance at all times. Meaning someone from the Rookie Nine or myself will be at your house 24/7, monitoring you. The two of you are very dangerous, and you need to be watched. Now, you're dismissed. Naruto will be waiting outside the door."
We went out and sure enough, Naruto was standing there. He hugged me and I gave him a quick pat on the back, then Sakura shrank to my side.
"Hi, Sakura-chan," he said gently. She gave him a small half-smile. "Hi, Naruto."
I smiled at her. "You're doing good today," I whispered.
"Shall we?" Naruto asked.
I nodded and the three of us walked to the Uchiha mansion. I noticed that she kept looking over at Naruto, as if curious. Once we got home, I helped her up to our bed and let her change and stuff, then settled her in bed and kissed her before she went to sleep.
"Goodnight, Sasuke-kun," she said.
"Goodnight, Sakura-chan."
"I love you."
"I love you, too."
"Are you going to leave me tonight?"
"No. I'm going to go talk to Naruto for a little while, then I'll come to bed, okay?"
"Okay."
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah…just overwhelmed."
"It'll be fine."
"Okay, Sasuke-kun. I trust you."
I kissed her again, and she pressed into it, hard. Then we exchanged I love yous one more time and I left.
