A/N: I want to thank everyone who has been a part of this journey with me! I have had a ton of fun telling this story!
To the ones who've read it later, I hope you enjoyed binging this little fic!


EPILOGUE

A 16 year old in the jounin police uniform was sitting atop the head of Hokage Naruto on Hokage mountain when an Anbu ninja dropped out of the sky and sat down to relax with him.

"Still sitting on your dad's head I see…" the Anbu nin said

"I sit on both our dad's heads…" Boruto said cheekily "Get rid of the damn mask Dai… It's annoying… "

The Anbu nin took off his mask to reveal a 16 year old Daisuke who looked like a splitting image of his father except for the long pink hair.

"Cut that off will you… it's a dead giveaway…" Brouto said

"It's my signature…" Daisuke said flatly

"What did you want to talk to me about?" Boruto asked nonchalantly then added "if it's about Hima, you should really ask her… or you know dad… or your dad…"

Daisuke's face showed no emotion as he looked at Boruto who was smirking at him. "What? You really thought I didn't know? Or did they forget how to teach you to say thank you in the Anbu?… or maybe a wow Boruto, now I get why my dad hired you… or thanks for your blessing but I still think you sister is gross like we did when we were kids… that last one would totally make my day…"

Daisuke smiled ever so slightly and said "Just be grateful we don't make out in front of you all the time…"

"Okay that's it!" Brouto said getting up to chase Daisuke, who did a backflip swan dive off the statue head of his future father in law

Himawari who had been watching from above the mountain to intervene if her brother did something stupid just sighed and said "Boys… "

Flashback

Himawari had come over to train with Daisuke again and they were evenly matched again.

Anyone could see the way Daisuke had looked disappointed when Hima had not been placed in the same genin team as him. It had also not gone unnoticed that every time the clan meetings happened, he found a reason to sit next to her.

No one had missed how Hima's face had lit up when he had returned after the mandatory 2 year no contact training of the Anbu elite. His mother may have teared up and hugged him for 5 minutes straight but it was Himawari who's tears that Daisuke had not been able to wipe that had hurt more.

Everyone knew they were in love, except for Himawari and Daisuke themselves. Boruto had gotten fed up of all sighing and the angst and had finally gone to his Shishou to tell him everything. As it turned out, his Shishou knew and he told him to let the women handle it.

At the last clan meeting when topic of heirs and unions had been brought up it had been suggested that Himawari and Shikhadai could be a great match. Boruto had watched as Daisuke had lied about being summoned for a mission and just left. He also noticed Sakura Sama and his mother sharing a conspiratorial smile.

Since that day Himawari had been coming to train with Daisuke everyday. They sparred and ran and competed but hardly spoke. They were both angry and frustrated and this was the only excuse they had to come close to touching each other. Boruto had watched that from afar as well wondering when they would break.

Their kunai clashed as they glared into each other's eyes. Daisuke dropped to the floor and spun dropping himawari who had been a second too late. He caught her as she fell and they ended up on the mat. Daisuke on the floor and Himawari above him. Panting heavily. Before their minds could function. He had put a hand around her neck and pulled her down. She had come willingly and they had kissed. He rolled them over and they deepened the kiss. Brouto had spat out the apple he had been eating and looked away right at the start, when he looked back and saw the process he decided that was enough. He called out loudly "Hima where are you?! Oka San is looking for you!"

Daisuke had jumped off her and said "I'm sorry Hima… Hyuga San" he said correcting himself immediately. They were equals, both born to be heads of their respective clans, but Hyuga was still far more powerful than the Uchiha at least in terms of influence or numbers…

"Daisuke…" Himawari said a little sadly "Don't you like me?" She stood up facing him and he found he couldn't look away. He finally realised how his father must have felt when his mother kept rejecting him, 'but' he thought 'otu san always told her he loved her…'

"I don't…" Daisuke said seriously looking at Himawari

Himawari's eye's filled with tears as she looked down. He took a step closer to her and lifter her chin with his hand they way he had seen his father do countless times to his mother. Suddenly it was not gross.

"I love you…" he said

Himawari had smiled and blushed and then looked terrified and said "Oh my god! Boruto is going to kill us!"

End Flashback

"Sarada Chan… Enough training… you need to get ready…" Baasan's voice came from the porch

"5 more minutes!" She whined looking at her father "otu san! Please 5 more minutes…"

"How about you go in now and tomorrow I teach you the basics of the Chidori sword technique?" Sasuke asked his 9 year old daughter

"Promise?!" Sarada said excited

"Promise…" Sasuke said holding out his pinky so his daughter could grab it.

"But oka san I really don't want to…" a young boy who looked like the splitting image of Sasuke except her had green eyes…

"Itachi Chan… You have to… There is no point in focussing only on medical ninjitsu if you can't fight… if you want to be a medic nin, you have to train with your father too…" Sakura said rolling up the several scrolls her 7 year old son had been pouring over that were frankly too advanced for his age. Itachi was sulking on the floor in the library as Sakura ignored his tantrum.

"What if while training I ask you anatomy related questions so you can do two things at once?" Sasuke said walking into the library"

Still pouting he looked up at his father "… Can oka san ask the questions… no offence but her questions are tougher…"

"Yes.. oka san can do that… now go find baasan and get ready… we have to leave in a couple of hours…" Sakura said returning

Itachi still not happy about the compromise sulked out of the library

"Did he just call me stupid?" Sasuke asked as he pulled Sakura into a hug

"Maybe…" She smiled up at him

"Just for that, I won't train shirtless tomorrow…" Sasuke said narrowing his eyes

"Tomorrow is so far away… I was thinking we could 'train' together now while Baasan helps get the kids ready…" Sakura said running her hand along the nape of his neck as she rose up on her toes to come face to face with him "After all, it is our 10th anniversary party…"

Sasuke smirked and asked her "how about a time loop of 5 minutes instead?"
