I am back from the dead! -Rises up all ghosty like- Wooooooooooo. Hey! Yeah I am alive! I got a few more reviews for my last chapter and now it's a biggie scene. Will there be wedding bells? Hmm, let's find out!

When we last left our heroes they were preparing for Sakura and Sasuke's wedding!

Romeo and Juliet – SasuSaku style

Chapter 10

Boys POV

"Well." Kakashi smiled. "Finally, something to be joyful about! May the heavens smile down on us!"

"Amen." Sasuke muttered. "But though we have suffered many hardships I don't think anything could ruin the joy I feel in my heart right now." If Sakura had been present, Sasuke would have smiled, but that smile was for her alone, so he simply smirked. He looked around. There had been no time to get the church dressed up specially, but there were white tablecloths and white flowers, so he supposed it would have to suffice. "Although I have only known her for a short time, nothing will give me more pleasure than being able to call her mine. Not even death can ruin my day now!"

"Aa. But Sasuke, don't forget, that these are not the best circumstances to be married in. 'Violent delights have violent ends' as they say. Even the sweetest, most delicious thing in the world is loathsome, purely because it is so delicious." At this point Kakashi stopped to rearrange his hat. He was wearing a long white, robe-like garment, with gold tassels around his neck, a white, pointy bishop's hat on his head and a brown, worn bible in one hand. "As I was saying, don't rush your love, it will crumble, take it slowly and it will last."

Kakashi looked at Sasuke fondly. He wanted to give the young boy sound advice, and this was the best way to do it. He couldn't help the feeling of pride within him as he watched the young lad trying to keep a calm stoic face, although Kakashi could easily see through that to the nervousness within. Not that there was much reason for Sasuke to be nervous. He looked fine in his tuxedo and shiny black shoes, not sandals, shoes. His clothes were black, contrasting with his pale skin nicely and bringing out the blue-ish black in his hair and eyes. His hair was combed into its usual style, but was glossy and it shone in the sunlight. Finally to top off the whole appearance was a single white lily in his buttonhole.

Sasuke turned as he heard the door open and his breathing quickened. 'Sakura shouldn't be here yet! We can't see each other until the wedding!'

As soon as he saw who it was though, he relaxed and smirked. In all honesty his friends didn't look half-bad. There was Shikamaru, in a black tuxedo similar to Sasuke's but without the flower, his hair let out of its hair bobble for once and resting lightly on his shoulders. Then there was Neji in a dark blue tuxedo with his hair firmly tied in its usual low ponytail. Finally there was Naruto. Sasuke was impressed and, although he wouldn't admit it, touched. Naruto had tried really hard to look good and be on time. He was wearing a light chocolate tuxedo, with a peachy shirt underneath (a pale shade of his favourite orange colour). He had combed his hair into a neater version of its normal sticking up self, so that it still stuck up, but not all over the place. He had scrubbed his face so he was very clean and his eyes were even more sparkly and clear than normal.

"Nice to see you made it on time dobe." Sasuke said smirking in a friendly way and giving a nod to show his approval and appreciation.

"Anytime teme." Naruto replied grinning. He was dim at times but he knew that Sasuke was only playing around. He was also glad that he hadn't let his friend down by dressing badly.

They all turned as they heard the door open again and gasped at the sight that met their eyes.

Girls POV

The girls shifted uncomfortably under the males' gazes. They had tried very hard for their best friends wedding and they hoped they hadn't disappointed. Ino was dressed in a baby pink gown that stopped just below the floor. It had spaghetti straps and a small flower where the bodice and the skirt met. Her hair was done up in an elegant bun, she had light make-up on and a small pink-sapphire necklace around her neck. Finally she had very small, pink stilettos on. Tenten hated dresses and was wearing a shirt and a skirt instead (although she hated skirts too). Her shirt was a light coffee colour with a very slight v-neck, while the skirt was a deep chocolate that stopped just below her knees and had sequins around her waist. She wore flat, brown shoes and had even permitted the other girls to put VERY light make-up on her, as a special treat for Sakura since Tenten loathed make-up with a burning passion. Her hair had been taken out of its buns and brushed down neatly to her shoulders, where a tiny yellow-sapphire necklace was just visible. Finally, Hinata was wearing a baby blue dress that just scraped the floor, even though she was wearing blue high heels. The dress had small sleeves and a square neck with sequins dotted all over it. Her hair had been put up into a cute ponytail and her celon blue-sapphire earrings could be seen quite clearly. Her make-up was, again, light, but it suited her complexion well.

All the girls had dressed down, as they didn't want to overshadow Sakura on her big day. Kurenai and her friend arrived as well, and were dressed decently but nothing overly noticeable. The girls all watched the boys drinking in their appearance. Were they dressed alright?

"Wow Ino. You look, amazing." Shikamaru finally spoke up. All the other boys agreed.

"Hinata-chan! You're so pretty in that dress!" Naruto cried. Hinata felt herself blush and was trying hard not to faint.

"A-arigatou, Naruto-kun." She replied, while her Inner self did a victory dance. 'Oh yeah! Naruto-kun thinks we're pretty in this dress! Wooooooo!'

"Tenten, you're." Neji paused for a moment, as though trying to find the right words. "Beautiful." He finished simply.

Tenten grinned, although she tried her hardest not to. Her grin widened even more when he gave her a small smirk of approval. Ino cleared her throat.

"Um, thank you all but shouldn't we be getting into our places? Sakura will be here soon." She said.

"Oh my!" Kakashi exclaimed. "Ino's right. Everyone into their respective seats or standing area!"

They all jumped into position, awaiting the blushing bride. Suddenly, the music started with the classic wedding theme. The door opened slowly.

Sakura's POV

As she stepped into the church she could hear her heart pounding. She hoped she looked ok. As she walked down the aisle she heard her friends gasp. Tenten looked amazed, Hinata stunned, Ino proud. Well of course Ino was proud, she had taught Sakura everything she knew about fashion. Sakura turned her attention to the boys, they were all gobsmacked with their mouths hanging open, except for Neji who had settled for a mildly surprised look, although his eyes were fairly wider than usual.

Finally, she turned her attention to the person whose opinion mattered the most to her. Sasuke was stood at the altar. His eyes were sparkling in a way she'd never seen before, and she could see the beginnings of a smile he was trying to keep secret. She thought he looked so handsome, and from the look on his face, he wasn't too disappointed with her.

Sasuke's POV

He was doing his best to keep his smile a secret, but she was so beautiful it was very difficult. His smile was for her only, and he didn't want to look like a goofy sissy in front of his friends, but he couldn't help it. He broke into a full force smile at the sight of his fiancée. She was dressed in a long ivory dress that trailed quite a bit behind her. It had tiny sequins on the skirt, making it sparkle and a rose on the bodice where the v-neck ended. It was sleeveless and held up by only her breasts. She had a diamond necklace and matching earrings with no make-up except a touch of lipgloss. Sasuke wondered if it was flavoured, he would find out later. On her feet she wore small, heeled shoes and her hair was left down although it had been curled. On top of her head was a small white gold tiara with a white veil attached to it that went to about her bottom. In her hand was a bouquet of white lilies. Her eyes were sparkling and her cheeks were flushed, quite literally a blushing bride.

Girls POV

As Sakura reached the altar Kakashi smiled. They began the ritual. As Sakura and Sasuke were repeating what Kakashi said, Kurenai couldn't help but grin. Everything was going so well, for all the young ninja, not just Sasuke and Sakura. She could see Shikamaru and Ino smiling at each other, Hinata blushing and smiling gently under Naruto's gaze and wide grin, and Tenten seemed a little too close to Neji for it to be mere coincidence. Her attention turned back to the young couple.

"Do you, Sasuke Uchiha, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do." Sasuke seemed to be mesmerised, lost in Sakura's eyes.

"And do you, Sakura Haruno, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do." Sakura was in the same position as Sasuke.

"Then I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Kakashi was smiling. Not that Kurenai could see behind the mask, but his eyes were crinkled in the corners, so she assumed he was smiling. All the girls watched fondly as Sasuke and Sakura kissed at the altar.

Boys POV

The boys weren't partial to romance and 'mushiness' but they all agreed silently that the couple was sweet together. Even Neji, although he pretended the word 'cute' wasn't in his vocabulary. As they watched the couple each boy edged just a bit closer to his love interest. There were smiles, blushes and hand holdings all round.

Mysterious Stranger's POV

His hands clenched into tiny, balled up fists. How could she? She had been strictly forbidden from seeing Sasuke and yet she was marrying him?

'Wait till Tsunade hears about this. And wait till she hears that the girls encouraged Sakura. There's going to be an all out feud!'
