OMG BEWARE THE FLUFF! If you're allergic to fluff, then turn back now but you won't get to see the end to the story! This is the official last chapter, and again, it's short but I nearly died writing it I was so happy! I love how it turned out and there isn't even a lemon!

"Hmm, then it's a good thing I like my couch because it seems like you don't want to move."

"You would be correct."

"Is it really that comforting to you?"

Sasuke must have had to ask that due to the fact that I was beginning to slur my words in my comfortable state. I felt my eyes closing without my consent and my head was lolling to the side every now and then. I could feel Sasuke move his arms and bring them in front of me to form a very familiar seal. In a puff of smoke, a shadow clone appeared and Sasuke told it to go get something warm to drink and a couple of blankets for us. While the clone nodded his head, the real Sasuke maneuvered us so that we were both lying on our sides; with my head facing his chest. There was plenty of space to do this on the chaise we were on, hell it would easily hold up to four people if you squeezed, and it was long so there was a good foot and a half passed my feet. I wrapped my arm around Sasuke's middle and buried my head further into his chest and shoulder and he chuckled lightly. He brought one arm to hold me close to him and his other to cradle my head so that I was more comfortable. Sasuke himself had half of his upper body situated on the giant pillow behind him, so my other arm just slid right under him. The Sasuke clone came back after a few minutes with a nice cotton blanket and some jasmine tea. He draped the blanket over the two of us to the point where the edge came up to my nose, and handed the original Sasuke the tea. After the tasks were complete, the clone disappeared and my love and I were left to the comforts of each other and the sounds of the storm outside.

"Naruto…."

"Hmm?"

"You know you don't have to go through another lonely thunderstorm, right?"

"I know…I know now."

"I want to share them with you."

"I would like that, Sasuke…I'd love that actually."

"And not just with storms either."

"What do you mean?"

"I know how lonely you are. Even though the whole village reveres you as a savior, I can still tell that you're sad."

"I'm surprised, seeing as you haven't had any interaction with me for a few months."

"I know, and I can't apologize enough for it."

"It's okay, I would always forgive you."

"But I want you to come to me whenever you have problems. Whenever you want to cry or just talk…I'm always here. Also, I need you to know that I really do love you."

"I love you too, Sasuke. I always have and I, most likely, always will."

"I want to show the village that you're happy as well."

"You…you want to be public?"

"You don't?"

"It's not that, I want nothing more than to show everyone that we're together; but how do you think they'll react? In case you haven't noticed, we're both boys."

"Homosexual relationships are widely accepted in this village. Hell, when Kakashi came out to Iruka the whole place nearly held a party."

"Don't you think our situation is a bit different? I always knew I was gay – you just recently came out of your shell. Coming out of the shell and coming out of the closet are two different things."

"I don't care what people think of me. Most of the people here are still wary of my betrayal, so they can't really get a worse opinion of me. Not to mention that I care more about you than them."

"You mean that? You don't care?"

"Of course I don't care. I want the people who hurt you in the past to know that you're happy and damn well better off than you ever were when you were on your own."

"I never knew you had this side to you Sasuke. You can be quite the romantic when you want to be."

"You haven't seen the half of it. But be warned Naruto, Uchiha's are known to be extremely possessive. We like having what is ours stay ours."

"I knew that a long time ago."

"So you don't mind being mine? I'm warning you, I will get jealous when other men talk to you. I will get angry if someone looks at you with the wrong intentions. I may even hurt someone if they attempt to touch you. Are you willing to go through all that?"

"When I fell in love with you, I knew what I was getting into. I knew that if we ever became an item, there would be things about you I couldn't control or prevent. That possessive side of you was one of the things I knew I would either have to get used to or fight over with you. My choice was to get used to it because I didn't want to change you. I felt that if I changed you in any way, it would have affected who you are. I didn't want that – I want you for you. Plus I might like the attention that you lavish me with when Sai tries to say something about my dick."

"If he says anything about your dick in front of me there may be blood raining down instead of water."

I laughed lightly and I knew that I had made the right choice coming over to talk to him. Granted I was very hesitant to do it without Iruka-sensei pushing me out the door, but it all came around full-circle. Sasuke Uchiha and I are now a couple, I had my word for my storms, and I was overall content with the life I'm living. There were certainly many challenges ahead of me, but I knew that with Sasuke by my side everything would be fine. I soon found myself asleep in Sasuke's arms and I thought to myself that nothing in this world was more perfect than Sasuke Uchiha and a thunderstorm mixed together.
