"What's so funny?" Sasuke looked back as he jumped from tree to tree.

Barely containing her giggles, Sakura replied, "It's our wedding night, Sasuke-kun. And yet, here we are, running like fugitives."

"Tch." Sasuke stepped off a tree and landed in a small clearing, his wife following suit. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "I told the dobe I didn't want a party for our wedding."

Sakura laughed again, her face illuminated by the full moon. "Then it was your mistake to tell Naruto when we were getting married!"

"There is no such thing as a surprise wedding." Sasuke pouted. "He even dares to feign innocence by saying he only invited our friends—the whole village was there!"

She placed her hands on her hips and sneered. "You don't have that many friends, Sasuke-kun."

He snapped his gaze towards her and glared. She stuck her tongue out playfully before sighing. "It was nice to see everyone gathered there for us, though."

His face softened. He knew that look. "Sakura, did you want to stay?"

She wrinkled her nose and teased, "I at least wanted a slice of cake before we left."

Feeling overcome with guilt, Sasuke averted his gaze. "Sakura–"

"It's fine, Sasuke-kun," she interrupted. "I know you don't like crowds." She placed a hand on his cheek and offered him a warm smile.

He held on to her hand. He hated how he always felt like he was holding her back from true happiness. "I'm sorry."

"Sasuke-kun," she chided him softly and planted a chaste kiss on his lips. "I don't need a big wedding, or a grand reception. What's important to me is that I have you."

The smile that Sasuke only showed Sakura appeared on his face. He leaned in close, until their foreheads were touching. She always knew what to say. She always understood how he felt. He meant it when he told her that he would love her, and only her, for the rest of his life.

"Sakura." He looked at her beautiful green eyes. "Thank you."

She poked his ribs. "You still owe me a slice of cake, though."

A/N: I realized I should have posted this before the previous one-shot so there's a sense of continuity (?). hahaha. Oh well.

Leave me a review and let me know what you think? :)
