When he found them…

When he found his family Sasuke couldn't believe it. It had been so long, and he had been so alone.

He had been so desperate.

So it was insane that in this moment seven years later that he couldn't take the final steps. The steps that would take him to Naruto, and their children.

He jumped when he heard a squeal come from inside the home.

Sasuke had to do something. The sounds of happiness coming from inside were ones that he should have been a part of. Before he could do anything the door opened.

"I'm going to get that ice cream!" The man who yelled out ran into him. "Oh my gosh, I am so sorry."

He had nightmares that this would happen, but he had always thought that if it had happened, if Naruto moved on than it would be with someone like him. Because Naruto loved him, and had loved everything about him so of course if he couldn't have him than Naruto would choose a replacement.

But this man looked nothing like him, and staring into his eyes, devoid of any of the shadows that Sasuke knew his own carried. And physically he was as bright as Naruto. He couldn't…

"Do you need something?"

"Close the door! It's freezing." Sasuke could hear Naruto yelling, and his voice was getting closer and closer and- "You better get mint chocolate-"

Sasuke stopped breathing when his eyes laid on Naruto for the first time in a long time.

"What are you doing here?"

Sasuke took a step back. He should have known that Naruto wouldn't be overjoyed. He should have expected it, especially after his actions, but he had held out hope.

"I'm here to talk. That's all I want to do. You mean the world to me, and I want to see my children."

The light in Naruto's eyes burned bright at his words. "You didn't fight for them in the divorce, and I gave you the option. I wanted you to be able to see them, but you didn't care."

The man put an arm around Naruto's shoulders.

"I don't think this is a good time for you to come and surprise Naruto."

A hand laid itself on Naruto's stomach, and the look they shared held so much.

"Oh."

AN: So I told you guys that I was done, but then recently I was reinspired. And here I am. I kind of want to push this story as far as I can go, but just in case I randomly burn out I am aiming to end each chapter in a way that it could be the end. Kind of like those stories where it's like the author puts the story in a position that the reader can end it in anyway that they want.
