July 20, the day before the Wedding of Uchiha, Hyuga, and Suna.

Suzuki awoke with a smile on her face, she turned over on her side and saw no one. She expected Kenji to be lying next to her, but instead she saw a piece of paper with a rose on his pillow. She held the note in her hands and read sloud.

"I thought I would have a day alone with Hiro, just the two of us on our last day of being a bachelor. I'll see you tonight at the Wedding rehearsal, I love you. Kenji." Suzuki read. She smiled to herself and got out of bed.

After getting dressed in a pair of blue capri pants and a black yukata, and eating salmon filled riceballs for breakfast, she went to her mother's old home. Where Sakura greeted her daughter, along with Hinata, Ai, and Tenten.

"Hi, am I really this late?" Suzuki asked when she saw everybody.

"Yes, Kenji said that you slept in." Tenten said.

"Speaking of Kenji, where are all the guys?" Suzuki asked,

"Well Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji decided to start a tradition where the men and the woman in the wedding, and the parents, all spend the day with the marrying couple or couples. So Kenji and Hiro are with them, and you girls are with us." Sakura said.

"We did this for our wedding too, when we were just a little older than you." Tenten said.

Suzuki and Ai smiled, they were excited and couldn't wait to follow the tradition by doing this with thier daughters or future daughter-in-laws.

:Later that day with the men:

"I remember the day you were born Hiro." Naruto said and put an arm around his son's shoulder. "Your mother nearly broke my wrist, she was in so much pain."

Hiro laughed. "Well at least it was worth it." Naruto said with a smile and looked at his son.

"I remember when Kenji was born, Tenten yelled and screamed at me. She kept blaming me why she was in so much pain." Neji chuckled as he remembered that day.

"Well since I don't have any son's Hiro and Kenji have been like son's to me. I trained them to excellent shinobi, didn't I?" Sasuke asked with a smile.

"You sure did sensei, thanks to you I not only know the rasengan, but also the Chidori." Hiro laughed.

Naruto smiled, "Neji and I are grateful that you took care of our son's during your missions. Thanks Sasuke-teme." Naruto said.

"Yes, we're really grateful." Neji said and smirked.

Hiro and Kenji shot each other glances and smiled at one another.

"Got any advice for the two men who are gonna be married?" Hiro asked.

"Yea, if fact we do. When you get married, you'll be extremely happy. You'll be in love deeply with the woman you married, but you also have to treat her with respect. Keep her happy, give her breakfast in bed for a surprise, open doors for her, train with her, protect her, and love her." Naruto said.

"Naruto's right, if you want your marriage to last long, don't change in any bad way. Always keep her happy, and keep yourself happy too." Sasuke said.

"And once your wives get pregnant, make sure you take extremely good care of her. Anything could go wrong, and you don't want to lose your child or your wife." Neji said.

Hiro and Kenji nodded.


:At the rehearsal dinner:

Suzuki entered the Hyuga Mansion wearing a silky white yukata and a matching pair of black pants that were also silky with a cherry blossom design on it. Ai was with her and she was wearing the same thing. When they saw thier fiance's they smiled and ran into thier arms.

"I missed you today Kenji-kun." Suzuki said when she grabbed her future husband.

Kenji smiled and held her back, "Me too Suzuki." he mumbled.

Ai ran up to Hiro from behind and jumped on his back, luckily Hiro grabbed a hold of her so she wouldn't fall. 'Hiro-kun! I missed you so much!" Ai said and kissed Hiro softly on the cheek from behind.

Hiro smiled and laughed, "I missed you, did you have fun?" Hiro asked.

"Yes, your mother is very kind, and so is Tenten-chan and Sakura-san." Ai said with a smile.

Neji, Tenten, Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, Hinata, and Garra all noticed thier childrens actions.

"They look cute, don't they Neji?" Tenten asked.

Neji nodded as he saw Kenji spin Suzuki around in his arms.

"I've never seen Suzuki so in love before, she looks happy, doesn't she Sasuke?" Sakura asked,

Sasuke smiled, "Yea, she does. I always knew Kenji would be the one I handed my daughter over to, isn't that right Neji?" Sasuke said with a smirk.

"Yes. I knew, I could see it in Kenji's eyes. Everytime he looked at Suzuki he looked at her in a way he looked at no other person, not even us as his parents." Neji said and smiled when he saw Kenji kiss Suzuki on her forehead.

"Hiro has never been this way before. He acts so different around Ai." Hinata said.

"I guess Ai opened up a new part of Hiro for us then." Naruto said with a smile as he saw his son playfully but Ai to her feet and nibbled at her nose.

"What I've seen over the years, is that never once did Hiro have a crush on Suzuki. Even though he's known Suzuki since birth, am I right Naruto?' Garra pointed out.

"That's true, Hiro and Suzuki were born on the same day, and they knew each other for thier entire life, and I don't think Hiro ever did once like Suzuki." Naruto said.

"Well Hiro introduced Kenji to Suzuki when they were four years old, not long since Hiro and Suzuki were born. In fact only a couple of years. I overheard them at one time talking about Suzuki." Hinata said.

Flashback

"What!? You like Suzuki!"

"Shush! Hiro don't scream it out loud for the world to hear." Kenji said silently

Both cousins were only seven years old. "Well why don't you tell her then?" Hiro suggested.

"No way! Suzuki and I are really good friends and I can't tell her that. It'll ruin our friendship." Kenji protested.

"Hrm, well, You gotta at one point." Hiro said.

"I will, but not now." Kenji said.

"Good." Hiro said, and got up to leave the room.

"Wait Hiro." Kenji said.

"What is it?" Hiro asked.

"Do you like Suzuki too?" Kenji asked, serious coursing in his eyes.

Hiro turned around and looked at Kenji with a grin, "What kind of friend and cousin would I be if I liked the same girl you liked? Kenji, if you like Suzuki, then don't worry how I feel about her. Yea I've known her since birth, but she's like a sister, I could never love a sister, well not in that way at least. " Hiro said with a thumbs up.

Kenji looked at Hiro and a small smile formed, the kind he saved for only his friends to see, "Arigatou Hiro."

"Hey, what are friends for?"

End flashback

"So Hiro never liked Suzuki because he wanted to be a loyal friend to Kenji. He didn't want Kenji becoming his rival over a girl, Hiro's too kind hearted to be like that." Hinata said with a smile.

"That's sweet, it seems Hiro has developed the very kind heart from Naruto, and Hinata." Sasuke said with a smile.

All parents looked at Hiro, Kenji, Suzuki, and Ai with a smile. "If only Naruto and I would have been like that." Sasuke said and looked at Naruto.

"Yea well we can't change the past, but at least we're good now." Naruto said and grinned.

Sasuke smiled, and Naruto chuckled.


"I don't wanna spend the night without Kenji Oka-chan." Suzuki groaned as she plopped down on the couch.

"Me niether Hinata-chan." Ai said and sat next to Suzuki.

All the women were staying at Hinata's house the night before the wedding, the men were staying at Sasuke's home.

"It's a tradition, it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding, you two can't see them until the ceremony tomorrow afternoon." Tenten said to the two girls.

"Hn." Both girlz mumbled.

"Is it illegal to call them?" Suzuki asked.

"Yes!" Sakura said playfully, "No contact with the grooms until tomorrow. now enough questions!"

Both girls groaned and leaned against the couch.


"Aa, it's boring without Suzuki." Kenji said twirling around a kunai in his finger.

"Yea, without Ai, everything seems dead." Hiro mumbled and layed his head on the table.

"Oh stop complaining you two, it's only for a day. Once you get married you'll be with them 24/7. So relax." Naruto said and sipped his tea.

"Can we at least call the girls and see how they are?" Kenji asked.

"No, if your mother answers the phone I'll be the one getting an earful, and knowing her, she won't let Suzuki or Ai talk to you." Neji said.

"He's right, why don't you two go train or something to pass the time before we call it a day?" Sasuke suggested.

"Fine, why not, come on Kenji." Hiro said.


Kenji lay awake, staring up at the celing. He missed Suzuki, he missed being able to hold her at night while she slept. He missed giving her a kiss goodnight and snuggling up next to her. What he most of all would miss, was waking up the next morning to watch her sleep until she awoke. Kenji sighed and turned to his side, he looked out the window and suddenly got the urge to jump out the window and sneak over to the Hyuga mansion. Which is what he planned on doing now.

When he reached the window he heard a voice come up behind him.

"And what are you planning on doing?" Neji asked his son.

Kenji sighed and gave up, he turned around and looked at Neji, who had his arms crossed over his chest and was leaning on the doorframe.

"Oto-san I really want to see her." Kenji said and looked down at his feet.

"I know Kenji, but you have to be patient. You're going to be spending the rest of your life with Suzuki, there's no need to rush into a lifetime. Once you two marry then you'll be able to hold her, kiss her, love her, and please her. You just have to stay patient." Neji explained.

"Knowing Hiro, you probably told him too, right?" Kenji asked.

"Not me, Naruto. I told Naruto to handle his son, just like I'm handling mine." Neji said and sat on the bed next to Kenji.

Kenji smiled and looked at his father, "Oto-san, what was it like when you married Oka-chan?" Kenji asked.

"I was pretty much like you, excited, nervous, happy, in love. I loved your mother very much back then, and I still do. But the happiest day of my life, is unforgettable." Neji said.

"What day was that?" Kenji asked.

"When you were born. I remember all the emotions I had, I was happy, nervous, scared." Neji explained.

"You? Scared? Nervous, unblieveable." Kenji said.

"It's true, I may have always been strong in your eyes Kenji, but deep inside I have a great fear that something bad might happen to you or to Hiro, and even Suzuki. Just like Sasuke see's you as a son, Suzuki and Hiro are like children to me, and I don't want either of you to get hurt." Neji said.

Kenji smiled, "Arigatou Oto-san." Kenji said.

Neji smiled and pulled his son into a tight hug, "No problem Kenji, I'm your father, it's what I do best. I'm so proud and happy for you." Neji said.

Kenji was shocked, the last time Neji hugged him like this was the day Suzuki had gotten very badly hurt, he remembered that say like it was yesterday.

Begin flashback

Kenji was running, running very fast, as fast as he could. Tears were streaming down his face, tears of fear, and anger. Suzuki was hurt and he couldn't do anything to save her. He just stood by and let her get hurt, Kenji ran all the way to the cherry blossom tree. It was raining heavily in Konoha, but Kenji didn't care how wet he was, all he cared about was that the girl he loved might die, and it scared him.

Anger swelled up in Kenji, he began to scream and punching the tree.

"You stupid, stupid, stupid tree! I hate you! I hate everything!" Kenji cried and punched the tree again.

He looked at his hands dazily, he put so much strength into puching the tree that his hands began to bleed. More tears formed in Kenji's eyes and feel constantly on the ground. His heart felt as if someone was tearing it to pieces, his emotions were running wild, and a web of thoughts filled his mind. All he could think about Suzuki, all he could say was Suzuki. He couldn't believe this was happening to him. He felt like someone was killing him emotionally. Tears kept streaming down his cheeks uncontrollably as he pictured Suzuki's lifeless eyes and beaten face. He leaned against the tree and mumbled,

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, please forgive me."

He looked up at the clouded black sky, the ran fell heavy on him, yet he felt as if he was surrounded by nothing but his breathing and beating heart.

"Suzuki!!!" Kenji cried out into the sky, expecting no response.

He dropped is head down and cried harder than ever, then he heard a familiar voice call to him.

"Kenji? Kenji what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Neji, his father, had asked.

Kenji looked at him with sad eyes, "Suzuki...she's...dying." he mumbled painfully.

He then buried his hands in his face. Sobbing uncontrollably. He didn't hear anything else but the rain and his deep sobs, what he felt next seemed to relax him a bit. He felt his father pull him into a tight hug, Kenji didn't question it, he just cried as Neji held him for comfort.

"Everything will be okay Kenji, don't cry." Neji said soothingly.

Kenji sobbed, Neji rubbed his back gently. "Shh, don't cry my son." Neji said.

End flashback

Kenji smiled and hugged his father back, "Arigatou Oto-san." he mumbled.

Neji smiled at his son after the hug and laughed with his son.
