It turns out one day, everything will line up, and it will all be happy. But in Konoha, it wasn't one day. It was days. It was weeks. It was months. It was years.
The Akatsuki were quickly killed by Anbu and the Hokage after the Hokage had returned. Orochimaru died of old age.
Sasuke was the head of the Anbu Black Ops. And Naruto? He was the Hokage.
Sakura ended up with Lee. Temari hooked up with Shikamaru. Gaara found Neji. Kiba found Hinata. And Choji was with Ino. Iruka had gotten Kakashi and TenTen got Kankuro.
And Sasuke got Naruto.
There was never a day when the sun failed to shine on the village. There was never someone or something the 6th Hokage couldn't help out.
The Village was a home to anything and everyone.

(((Naruto's POV)))
"I swear to god Sasuke, one day that old hag will die and she'll stop sending me all this paperwork," I growled, applying so much force to the pen that it broke.
I cursed, standing up.
Sasuke shook his head, and then suddenly I was swept into his arms.
"God dammit Teme not today! Im busy!," I yelled.
Sasuke kissed me to shut me up. "You need to calm down dobe," the Captain Anbu ordered.
It wasn't till I relaxed my muscles that I noticed how tense I was.
Raven boy set me down and took out a pen.
I reached for it. Sasuke held it back, smirking. "Promise me you'll finish the work quickly. I want to show you something."
I thought about it for a while. What would Sasuke want to show me?
"Ok...."
Teme handed me the pen and I got right to work.
An hour later, I was finished.
I sighed, setting the pen down.
Sasuke was still there.
Sasuke looked at his watch, then grinned.
Suddenly I was grabbed by the waist and forced over Sasuke's back.
"Hey! Teme! Let me down!," I yelled, hitting sasuke in the back.
Sasuke told me to 'shut up' and then he opened the window and we were flying and then bouncing off the rooftops.
I gave up trying to get him to put me down so just waited for him to stop.
Finally, I was put down.
It was on the bridge over the stream that had pink sakura petals in it from the cherry blossom tree's that surrounded it.
Everyone—and I meant e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e (Everyone as in friend ninja)—was there, talking to friends and couples.
It was like this huge gathering.
They all stop talking when they saw me.
And then: "Naruto!!!!"
I was suddenly the center of attention.
I didn't know why. I mean, they saw me everyday. What made it different this time?
But whatever, if they wanted to praise me, then praise away.
Kakashi came up behind me and gave me a can of beer.
I accepted it, taking a long sip.
"Hey Kakashi, I want to thank you for what you said to me back then," I told the silver-haired Nin, realizing I had never thanked him.
Kakashi smiled, patting me on the back. "It was no problem. I'm really happy for you." And then he walked away.
I was greeted by other friends and then in 5 minutes, everyone was wondering the same question.
"What is it like to have sex with Sasuke?," they all asked.
Blood rushed to my face. Sasuke suddenly wrapped his arms around me. "Yea dobe, what is it like to have sex with me?"
I turned to look at him. "I can't answer that."
Everyone groaned at my response. Except sasuke, who said, "Well, everyone, I think Naruto finds it really enjoying because sometimes he begs me to have sex with him."
"Hey!," I yelled, hitting sasuke on the head. "That so not true dammit! You teme!"
The crowd laughed, as did sasuke. A few minutes later, I wasn't the center anymore and everyone had gotten to talking to their own love partners.
I pouted, crushing the beer can in my hand and throwing it at sasuke— who dodged. I leaned against t he metal bars, watching the koy-fish.
Then raven-boy's hands were wrapped around me.
He grabbed my chin lightly with his thumb and index finger and raised it to look at the clear blue sky. I couldn't believe it, but there in the sky was the word Love in then wispy clouds.
Was it my imagination, or was it really there?
Sasuke rested his head on my shoulder. "Isn't that odd? I wonder how it got like that."
So he could see it too.
"Love is a really strong word,"I commented, smiling.
"It's a really strong pull too," Sasuke replied.
"Hey sasuke, I think I was right to fall in love with you."
Sasuke nodded. "Me too. Im very happy about it. You complete me so well."
I slowly turned around so I could wrap my arms around sasuke, and then kissed the raven-head in front of me.
Both our eye lids went low, and then we slowly pulled apart.
We starred at each other for a moment, and then I decided to kiss him again.
It was short, but the meaning was great.
I skimmed over Sasuke's lips for a second then kissed him fully.
After 4 seconds of contact I slid my lips of his and took him in a tight hug.
I buried my face in his shoulder, letting the tears slide down my face.
Sasuke ran his hands through my hair. "Why are you crying, dobe?"
More tears spilled out.
"I'm just so happy sasuke....i am so happy."
Your lips speak soft sweetness
Your touch a cool caress
I am lost in your magic
My heart beats within your chest
I think of you each morning
And dream of you each night
I think of your arms being around me
And cannot express my delight
Never have I fallen
But I am quickly on my way
You hold a heart in your hands
That has never before been given away
