Epilogue: A Christmas Wish

"Sakura-chan!"

Sakura glared at her blonde friend as the snow continued to fall around them. "What, Naruto?!"

"Are you sure you should be out here?" he asked worriedly.

Kakashi smiled. "She'll be okay. We won't be out here long otherwise I'll just carry her back home." he smiled, the streetlight gleam bouncing off the gold band around his finger.

She sighed. "I'll be fine. Where's Sasuke?"

"I'm coming!"

Sasuke came up the sidewalk carrying a crying Aiko as he held the small hand of Fumio who held the hands of his brothers and sister. "Chinatsu thought it would be fun to shove Aiko into a pile of snow." he said as he sent a stern look to the young girl who looked close to tears. "I swear, she's a handful by herself, but with her brothers and sister, ugh."

Kakashi smiled and tapped Aiko lightly on the shoulder. She turned and squealed in happiness before squirming towards him. Sasuke allowed Kakashi to take her and she landed happily into his arms as Sakura smiled, stroking her raven hair. "Hello Aiko-chan. Do you like Kakashi-kun?"

Aiko looked up with wide eyes and nodded her head. "Hai," she said and Sakura smiled. "I like him too." she said.

Sasuke glanced at her. "How far along?"

"Not long, about four months." she replied.

"Hn."

Kakashi smiled and kissed Sakura while the children covered their eyes. "And we were never happier." he said.

"Guys, we have to hurry. I need to get back to Hinata."

They nodded. "You all have them?" Sasuke and Naruto nodded. Chinatsu, Fumio, Hiroki, and Kioshi also nodded while Aiko pulled a letter from her jacket and waved it in the air. Kakashi chuckled. "Santa better watch out. She can charm the pants off anyone."

"You're going to have a hard time being firm with her, Sasuke." Sakura chuckled.

"Hn."

Naruto was first. Pulling the opening of the mailbox, he slid a letter in. Keeping it open for Sasuke, the Uchiha slipped his in before grunting as he picked up the four children in the ground and watched as they slid their letters in. Aiko squirmed towards the box and Kakashi chuckled. Sakura held the box open and smiled at the two. "Come on, Aiko-chan, you can do it." Aiko nodded and let the letter slide into the mailbox before Sakura slipped their letter in.

She turned and saw Aiko refusing to let go of Kakashi. Sasuke sighed. "I swear, Kakashi, she likes you way better than me. I think she actually thinks you're her father."

"Hn. Aiko-chan, let go and go back to your daddy, k?" he asked with a smile. She nodded and unlatched herself from his jounin vest before returning to her father.

"I think she likes the attention she gets from him. She knows she's his favorite. Just pay a little more attention to her Sasuke and you should be fine." said Sakura. Sasuke nodded and led his children away, Aiko waving goodbye over his shoulder.

Kakashi smiled. "Well, we better get going." he said. Sakura and Naruto nodded.

"Bye Kakashi. Bye Sakura!"

They nodded farewell and watched him disappear in a cloud of smoke before disappearing themselves, the leaves and petals that signaled their leave carried away in the breeze.

Santa sat at his desk again as he sorted through the letters from people all around the world. He was down to the last few, all from Konoha. Smiling to himself, he opened the first one. It was from Hiroki and it was a picture of the sun. Next was Chinatsu with a picture of a ball. Fumio drew a picture of a heart and Kioshi drew a picture of a cat. Lastly, he settled on a picture of Aiko's, a picture of her and Santa and he smiled.

'Aiko is quite the charmer.' he mused as he opened the letter from their father.

Santa,

How are things up there? Things in Konoha are fine. Those babies are quite the handful, especially Chinatsu. Since the children can't write yet, I wrote their wishes in their stead. Hiroki wanted a red ball, Chinatsu wanted a doll, Kioshi wants more crayons, Fumio wants a blue ball, and Aiko wants a teddy bear. As for me, just some kunai will be fine. Oh yeah, thanks for the kids. I don't think I can ever repay you.

From Uchiha Sasuke

PS, There are photos of them all with this letter.

Santa looked in the envelope to see pictures of all five babies and chuckled. He placed the letter away and opened the next one.

Hey Santa, what's up? Well, Hinata and I got together a little after Christmas last year and we haven't stopped since. I proposed to her in February and we got married in April. We have a kid now! He was born earlier this month. His name is Hatsuharu. Weird, seeing how he was born in winter, but anyway, thanks for getting us together. Oh, instead of ramen, can you just give me diapers and a toy for the kid? As for Hinata, she said a book would be fine. Thanks.

From Uzumaki Naruto & family

PS, we have a photo of us. It's in the envelope.

Santa dug around to find a picture of the Naruto and Hinata looking at the baby boy who slept peacefully. He placed the letter away and put the photo on top of the other pictures he got. He picked up the last letter and opened it, a warm smile on his face as he read.

Dear Santa,

Hi Santa. Well, we opened the boxes and found the lockets. We both love them and wear them everyday, even on missions so we feel close to each other all the time. Well, I'm pregnant. He almost passed out when I told him. I'm four months along.

Kakashi proposed to me in September on his birthday. He was so nervous. I said yes and we got married last month. I can't wait to see what the baby is going to look like. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl. I hope it's a girl, but I'll still be happy if it's a boy. I just hope it isn't as painful as when Hinata gave birth to Hatsuharu. She almost snapped every bone in her husband's hand. Poor Naruto.

We managed to get Tenten and Neji together last year and their wedding is expected sometime next summer. Lee was crushed, but he got over it. He's now corresponding with a girl from Suna that Temari introduced him to when he went on a mission with Shikamaru there. He showed me a picture of her and she's gorgeous. I hope she's happy with him. From what Team Gai told me, he's head over heels for her.

Sasuke is fine. He's having a bit of trouble with Chinatsu, but I think she's just going through some phase. Hopefully she gets out of it. Their personalities are coming out well. Fumio seems to be a lot like Obito. Hiroki seems to be like how Sasuke is now, reserved, but friendly. Chinatsu is a lot like Ino, shockingly. (She's been hanging around her too much.) Kioshi is becoming quite the artist and Aiko, it's hard to describe her. All we know for sure is that she loves getting attention and being Kakashi's favorite. Sasuke's convinced that one day, she'll start calling Kakashi her father. She's so cute and quite the charmer. I wonder how they'll turn out.

For Christmas this year, I want all my friends happy. Kakashi says he doesn't care what he gets this year. He's happy enough with me and he better be, but I trust him. He even shouted his love for me from the Hokage building once. Love does strange things to people, ne? You should come visit one day. I think it'll be fun. Thank you for getting Kakashi and me together. We've never been happier.

From Sakura and Kakashi Hatake

PS, I sent you the cookie recipe you wanted along with some photos.

Santa chuckled and looked at a wedding portrait of the two, smiling into the camera with Kakashi in his signature mask. He smiled at the photo and placed it with the others before fishing around the desk. Finding a small photo album, he placed the photos inside.

He closed the book and left the room, the light illuminating the cover. Suddenly, the wind blew through the room, the breeze flipping through the book, pausing on a recently taken Christmas photo of the rookie nine, Team Gai, the teachers, and Shizune and Tsunade as they smiled and smirked into the camera.

Tenten and Neji held hands as they stood near the spandex lovers. Naruto stood with his hand around his wife while she held their child. Sasuke stood in front with his five children, and Sakura and Kakashi stood with each other, their hands clasped together, the rings resting on their fingers.

Amazing what can come from a Christmas Wish.
