Chapter 13: Epitome Of Happiness

"TEME.. I'M GLAD YOU FINALLY snapped out of it. Seeing the two people I care deeply be together is the best thing to have happened to our team. May your relationship last forever" Toasted Naruto with his signature grin as the newly wed couple sat at their own table almost like king and queens.

"Sasuke..." started Kakashi "I'm quite relieved to say that I don't have to guess your sexual preference anymore" He joked and some people laughed, including himself. Sasuke's right eye twitched and Sakura sweat dropped, already preparing for her sensei's funeral speech in her head. "to the love of both of you"

"Sakura...you don't know how much it means to see your face shine with happiness and the twinkle in your eyes return after a very long time. You won Sasuke fair and square and I wouldn't have had it either way. He needs you as much as you need him and I couldn't be more ecstatic for you both. Take care of her Sasuke" Toasted Ino, the sincerity and generosity in her voice made Sakura tear up and she had to stop herself from crying. Sasuke gave her a nod of acknowledgment.

Next was Tsunade's turn, she gazed at her star pupil in pride and love that resembled much of a mother's "No long speech needed. To what Ino said, it's good to see you happy again, truly happy, after all these years. You deserve everything you've ever wanted and more. To you and Sasuke" she winked.

"I always knew this day would come!" said Hinata with glee, her small bump showing, her face glowing. Although her voice was still very soft there was a cheerfulness in it that kept surprising Sakura, she was coming out of her shell a little more. "I knew Kami would come through and that you both will finally be happy with one another." Everyone cheered.

More or less, other's gave them nearly the same speech, wishing for their everlasting happiness and marriage and toasting in their honor. Afterwards everyone came up and congratulated them personally, all the attention was mainly on Sakura but that was fine was Sasuke because this was her day and besides...all of his attention was on her too. When everyone had been chattering and eating the deserts Sakura picked out, a song came on. It's one he's heard her sing sometimes when they were younger, as he figured from the time he's spent with her thus far she listened to the song quite often. Sakura's eyes widened as she recognized the song immediately and her eyes looked up to the man who was standing, his eyes soft as he held out his hand to her. Stunned but happily so, she took it and let him lead her out to the middle of the clear floor where the Uchiha Crest laid large and unmoving. She sensed the heat rising to her cheeks as her drew her close, one of his hands on her lower back while the other held her hand. Sakura felt as if she might die and go to heaven right there and then, her heart hammered in her chest as their eyes locked and never moved from each other's as they swayed to the song 'For You' by Azu. The meaning of the lyrics wrapping around them like a warm blanket.

Part of the reason why Sakura liked this song so much was because it was a symbol of her hope and love for Sasuke whilst all the beliefs she held dear to her, it was the perfect song. She hadn't requested for any songs to play because she wasn't sure Sasuke had wanted to dance in the first place, she was surprised to find that he knew that this song was close to her heart.

Their foreheads touched and Sakura couldn't help but to close her eyes in complete sweet bliss of this day. Although the steps may be simple she wondered how Sasuke could dance at all, of course his mother could have taught him but she was fairly certain that the young prodigy Sasuke she knew could care less for dances and just wanted to focus on honing his skills.

"An elderly woman taught me" Said Sasuke, as if reading her mind. "When I visited a village that liked to dance whenever they were able." he pulled her closer and the smell of him intoxicated her in a good way, she loved the way he smelled, clean but edgy with his own natural scent that appeased to her. Sasuke's mouth tickled her ear and she shivered in delight, her body telling her of what it wanted "I learned it for this exact moment, for you" his voice was sensually gentle and a bit husky. She opened her eyes to peer at him, something wonderful passed between them as they gazed at one another. They stopped swaying and Sakura put her hands to her husband's chest and raised herself up a little bit "I love you" she whispered, just before the lips met.

"Okay girls!" Exclaimed Sakura grinning as she held her bouquet in her hands and turned her back the crowd of huddled girls behind her. All of them were ready and eager to catch it, more so now that the superstition upped 2x in belief since Sakura caught the bouquet before and got married weeks later.

"1!" Sakura swung in motion but didn't release it yet.

"2!" she swung a bit more

"3!" with a bit more force in that last swing it went over her head and she quickly turned to see the girls try and catch it, it bounced around as the girls tried to grab it but it landed in Ino's hands. The girls awed but Ino looked thoroughly shocked but gleeful as she waved it in the air in victory. Sakura couldn't help but giggle, good for her bestfriend.

The rest of the reception was filled with Sakura taking lots and lots of pictures, even a few with Sasuke for memories sake. She shared a dance with her father and reminisced with her mother. With help from Sasuke they cut the small cake and it was gone near the end. After a long while of the boys conversing with one another and the girls with each other the wedding ended and thus the newly wed couple stood at the gates of Konoha with their bags. It was agreed that Sakura would journey with Sasuke once they were married, he kept to his word and she didn't want to waste anytime going with him. Their friends and family clapped as they waved -Sakura waved- their goodbye. Sasuke to say the least, as cheerful as this day was, he was just finally glad to be able to spend some time with his wife alone.

As soon as they stepped out of Konoha Sasuke gathered his wife in his arms and disappeared at lightening speed, Sakura wrapped her arms around his neck as they traveled at the same insane speed, listening to calming beat of his heart. Just as she was beginning to doze a little bit they stopped in front of a resort where they'd be spending a few nights.

Sasuke checked them in and Sakura couldn't help but side glance the many women whose eyes lingered on him too long and then looked to her in surprise at figuring that he wasn't on the market. She smiled and Sasuke guided her to their room which was big and comfy and so was the bed as they began to wind down.

It was safe to say that Sakura was a bit nervous, she may be tired but that still didn't stop her mind from wandering to what every married couple did on the night of their first honeymoon but looking at her husband he was just as tired as she was, even though you couldn't really tell, she knew. They took off their wedding outfits and put on something comfortable, of course Sasuke went to the bathroom to give her privacy. When he came back she was in bed and he didn't hesitate to get in beside her.

They faced each other, still not saying anything but talking with the simplest touches that were so filled with meaning. It was clear to both of them that nothing was going to happen tonight but that was fine, because as he pulled her to him and smoothed her long hair away from her face she'd rather their first night be like this. Comfortable, intimate, soothing and every bit of happiness they've been feeling since reuniting. Sakura doesn't know how long it had been when her eyes began to droop listening to the rhythmic beating of his heart but as her eyes shut she barely heard Sasuke say

"Good night, Sakura"

A smile plastered onto her face, this is what the epitome of happiness must feel like.

A/N: I didn't want this chapter to be too long doing the honeymoon so I just transitioned into it. The next chapter will be all about it! and it'll be good believe me ;) See you soon! ~Ren
