Chapter Seven: One and only wish

Except for the hooting of the owls the silence of the night was deafening but soothing to Sasuke. He was perched on lowest branch of a tree as he guarded the area where he and Naruto camped before heading to the Hidden Rock Village to deliver a scroll containing some new conditions of a particular contract. Sasuke look at the moon and deducing from its position it was now midnight- July 23, his birthday. But since the massacre he no longer celebrated on such day because he was too busy getting stronger and he had no one celebrate with and then it had became a habit. It annoyed him when his admirers always celebrated and sent gifts which always ended up in the trash.

He frowned knowing that when they arrived home, he would find gifts littering the entrance. Stupid admirers. Couldn't they just leave him alone especially that he was now married?

A voice softly calling his name stopped him from thinking further. He looked down and found a grinning Naruto. In a split of second, he found the blonde sitting beside him.

"It's not yet your shift," he stated. He wanted Naruto get as much sleep as he could.

"I know..." then he trailed off to produce a cupcake, twice as big as their usual size. He lit the sole candle at stared at those surprised black eyes, "I got this from the village we last visited. It's not much given our current situation."

Sasuke smiled, his black eyes glowing like black diamonds. "It's more than enough," he replied. Naruto's presence reminded him that he not only had a reason to celebrate but he now had someone to celebrate his birthday with.

"Don't forget to make a wish," Naruto reminded him cheerfully then a slight frown upset his calm face as he commented, "What could you wish for? You have looks, talent, brain… You have everything!" He then ended it with a pout, never bothering that he had just praised his husband.

Sasuke gave a low chuckle. "I definitely have everything," he agreed in a serious tone as he meaningfully looked at his wife who immediately blushed, getting Sasuke's idea. "But I have a wish to make."

"You do?"

He just nodded as he silently made his wish and blew the candle.

"Happy birthday, bastard," Naruto greeted and leaned forward to capture Sasuke's lips. The dark-haired ninja greedily kissed back, his wish echoing within him.

I wish for us to be together in life and even in death… forever.

See? Short and fluffy. Next chapter, Naruto to the rescue. He fears that what awaits him is the corpse of his husband. Hurry up, Naruto.
