Love Arranged Epilogue

A/N: Sorry. It's late. I'm kind of glad that you guys don't know where I live or anything because after this chapter you're going to want to kill me.

Acidic

Take my hear and pull it apart,

dip it in acid and

watch it melt.

Take away the silver to my night,

leave me in the dark.

Without the scarecrow watching me,

I feel alone.

Peel off the layers

crack my shell, find my tears,

the ones I shed for my unmasked hero.

Watch me cry and lose my form,

The shape that was held together,

before the acid in the storm.

(A.N: I haven't written a poem for about 7 years now. I think that's pretty good for being away for that long right? Yup I made that poem thinking of Love Arranged especially. Silver, masked, and scarecrow all being symbols of Kakashi. It's supposed to be in Arune's POV)

Rain poured above Arune as she sat fingering her dead husband's name on the memorial stone. Right below his sensei's name and to the left of his best friend's name lay his. She knew that her husband had his own honorable space near the ones he cared deeply for.

"Kakashi Hatake: copy ninja, Konoha's resident hentai, dear sensei and loving husband."

Shivering from the cold, Arune sat curled next to the stone. It had been a month since she had last seen her husband, one month since she had been married and about two weeks since she had turned 25. She hadn't given up on him yet.

She refused to believe Kakashi was dead. There was no way that he could die, especially if the prophecy that led them to be wed was true. For days she tried to convince Tsunade to let her go back to the Forest to look for him. Tsunade refused. Arune had gone as far as to run away from the village to look for him, but had been caught by Naruto. Now she was on surveillance and couldn't go anywhere without an escort.

"Onee-chan, stop it. You need to stop crying. You think Kaka-sensei would like it if you kept crying? Be proud that he died a noble shinobi death, protecting his village and you," said Naruto pulling his sister out of the rain.

It hurt him to see his god-sister looking so miserable. She had shut her normal self out and had become depressed as well as stopped taking care of herself.

"Naruto, you don't understand. He can't have died. We were married, well before the prophecy warned us about. We had just fallen in love. We had done everything the stupid prophecy told us. He's the last of his clan so until we had a child or something, it was impossible for him to die. The prophecy said as long as he and I were wed then neither of our clan could be extinct. He has to be alive." Arune replied crying underneath the tree, in the embrace of her brother.

Although Arune was affected the worst by Kakashi's death, the entire town was mourning. The bars had closed down for the week in memorial of their constant client. The women who had slept with him were mourning for the loss of a sex god, and the women who hadn't slept with him were mourning over the loss at ever having a chance to be bedded by him. His friends mourned for the loss of a great shinobi while his team mourned for their leader. But Naruto mourned because he lost a father-like figure and his brother-in-law. Naruto even knew the he wasn't Kakashi's favorite student but he was close to him never-the-less. He shared a bond with him, one of the few he had.

Naruto consoled his sister and she had finally stopped crying. Slowly the rain retreated and the two started walking back to the Hatake Mansion. Passing through the village and stopping in front of the locked door, Naruto pulled out his set of keys and opened the door. After turning the knob, he turned to hold the hand of his sister but came up with air. Frantically his first thought was that she had run away, again, to find her husband. Naruto stepped forward and looked at the ground. He spotted his sister lying on the dirt with her eyes closed. Naruto kneeled down and checked her breath and pulse making sure that she was still alive. He then picked her faint form up and ran to the hospital.

Hinata was in charge of the hospital today because Sakura was assigned a mission, alongside Sasuke, to tend to Itachi. As Hinata finally sat down from her rounds she heard a crash from the front of the hospital. As far as she knew there was no A rank or higher mission shinobi returning. Hinata got up, sighing and headed to the front.

"What do you mean you don't know what's wrong with her? Where's Baa-chan or Sakura-chan? Someone needs to check Aru-nee out!" yelled a furious blond holding his faint sister.

Hinata stepped forward to help her boyfriend. He hadn't known that she was back from her mission and heading the hospital for that week.

"Naruto-kun, what happened?" Hinata asked moving the nurse aside.

"Onee-chan just fainted out of the blue. She was in the rain all morning and I don't she's ate in a while."

Hinata escorted Arune into a private room and hushed Naruto down.

Hinata then proceeded to pull off Arune's wet clothes and changed her into the hospital gown. Laying down her boyfriend's sister, she activated her Byakugan to check her vein and nerves, her Byakugan went up another lever to check her chakra flow. Hinata's already wide pulsed eyes grew even bigger when she looked at her patient's body. Gently covering Arune with a sheet and after making sure she had all the required nutrients, she left the room then. Running past Naruto, she assured him that everything was okay, Hinata stormed into Tsunade's office.

" Gomen hokage-sama demo I need your help. Arune-nee-chan is in room 121 and I think you should check up on her, Hinata said gasping for breath.

"Hina-chan I think you are more than capable to handle Arune," said the busty blonde.

"No Hokage-sama you need to check this out. She's ..."

"...pregnant," said Tsunade to Naruto. She had finished checking out Arune after Hinata had nearly dragged her to the room. Now she sat next to Arune's bed, who was now wide awake, and on the other side of Naruto was Hinata.

"Pregnant," repeated Arune. She numbly led her left arm down and circled her womb remembering how Kakashi would do so after their romance and love-making.

Tears filled her eyes and graced her face as she realized that no longer could she hold onto the idea that he, Kakashi, would come back. The prophecy only demands an heir to the houses -an heir which was growing inside of her. Keeping her left around her womb, she moved her right hand wipe her tears.

Nine Months later...

The next nine months passed very quickly. Sakura and Hinata would routinely check up on Arune. Naruto learned many recipes (mostly from Hinata) and provided his sister with nutrients and proteins. Arune stopped being gloomy and depressed after realizing that some form of Kakashi was still with her. She had a reason to live: The love symbol that Kakashi had arranged to leave behind for her.

As Arune lay after labor she looked down at her child and smiled. Closing her eyes and pulling her offspring closer she fell into a blissful sleep. As she slept, a dark shadow swept into the hospital room. Seals could be seen forming as Arune shifted uncomfortably in her sleep and her eyes fluttered. Hours later she woke up. Feeling her child close to her she called for the nurse, but Tsunade came instead.

"Hokage-sama. I can't remember who the father of my child is. I remember everything besides anything connected to him," Arune said sobbing. Forgetting the most important part of one's life is difficult.

Tsunade looked shocked. A few hours ago Arune could not stop screaming Kakashi's name but now she claimed that she didn't know who he was. Tsunade sighed and could not helpt but think "the man she loved, who arranged a memoribillia for his love, yet she can't remember him."

As Arune crept back to sleep her memory was non-existant. She felt tears dropping from her eyes while her son wiped them away ever so brilliantly for a new born baby. Yes, he was defiantly the child of a genius.

Once again the shadow crept about and a smirk could be seen.

The End of Love Arranged...

Scenes from Forever Love:

1. Naruto bent down and enveloped the owner of the silver hair. He sighed a breath of relief as he finally found who he was looking for after all of this time.

2. Arune felt his hot breath on her neck and shifted uncomfortably. She didn't want this right now and prayed for something to interrupt her husband from taking things too far. Thankfully her son knocked on the door right then.

3. "I do" those words didn't register in Arune's mind when she heard her younger brother say them to his new wife. She wondered what type of wedding she had had.

4. The man found the young boy in the river and took him home. It was obvious that his parents didn't care much about him.

5. She wanted another baby. But she wasn't comfortable especially right now.

I know. I'm cruel. The scenes from the sequel are killer. I had to write them vague but I knew that you would want something. Sorry for the delay in the posting of this.

I told you that you would want to kill me.

Guys, from now on though I'm going to make everyone log in to post comments. It's murder trying to want to reply to your posts but I can't because there's no way to do so. Anyone know how to do that?

-For those who asked me if Kakashi will come back to life: wait and see.

-Even though there is a sequel to this story it won't focus much on Kakashi and Arune, since as of right now Kakashi's dead.

-The sequel will be about twice as long. It'll come out sometime after the third week of May. I have finals coming up so no writing for me.

-I'll give you guys a sample of information. NaruHina will be a bigger character pairing in the sequel, meaning there's gonna be lemons for them. And for Sasuke-just because he's hot. Lol. I've got a total of three lemons planned for the sequel for you lemon lovers. Each will go with the situation and the characters.

-Arune just had a son. I didn't mention his name yet but it'll be what Kakashi and Arune discussed. Apparently she still remembers that conversation.

A.N Thanks for reading and reviewing. I have over 100 reviews. Much more than I EVER expected.

Thank you, Arigato, Gracias, Shukria, and Merci.

For the last time please review. Tell me your opinions. Flames will be alright also. Lol.
