All the guests were waiting for the bride and groom to appeared once more.
Hinata couldn't walk quickly, Toneri helped her by holdin her hand.
"sorry..." said her.
"nothing... are you okay?"
"yeah-" she held her kimono so she wouldn't step on it.
"...it's really suit you," said Toneri so sudden.
"thanks-" she smiled. her face were blushing and she kept looking down.
then, when they were out, all the guests clapped their hands so lively.
'congratulation!' they kept saying.
Toneri and Hinata immediately went to their seat. then, He stood and gave sign to be silent.
"uhm... Good day, everyone-Thanks for coming here today. uhh... sorry-I forgot some words-" said him. Everyone was laughing including Hinata. "What I
wanted to say is... everyone here coming because of Hinata-I don't have anyone here... I only have her-that's why... I will surely make her happy-to all her
families and friends, please trust me on that-" he bowed deeply.
Naruto clapped his hand first, then the other guest followed him.
"it's a promise, you know!" said Naruto.
"...thank you-" said Toneri while sitting.
then, Hinata stood right after that and everyone started to watch her.
"Good day, everyone... Thank you gor coming today. I'm so happy to see all my friends and family here witnessed a precious moment of my life-" she felt her confidence slowly fading away. Toneri hold her hand gently and smiling. that gave her courage. "-I'm sure of my choice, even if I couldn't say what's his good point. as he said before, he didn't have anyone here. I want to make a home for him, a place where he could go back everyday. I hope you all could forget about his past and be in good terms with him. T-thank you" she bowed deeply and back to her seat.
Everyone clapped their hands again. but, there were other noise than it.
"Hokage-sama, mind to give some word?" asked Hinata's dad."oh... hmm-Well, allright..." said him. Naruto went to Toneri and Hinata. he asked them to stoid with him."First, I want to say... Congratulation for your wedding-"
"Thanks... Hokage-" Toneri looked delightful.
"I don't know what's in their head but let me say this as Uzumaki Naruto, not Hokage...""huh?" Hinata looked confused.
"Are you forget all the bonds with other shinobi? I came here because two of my friends are married. I don't know what the others thinking but at least... Me and Sakura here as your and Hinata's friend."Toneri was startled. he looked all his guests, they all see him the way Naruto did.
Before Naruto back to his seat, he patted Toneri's back.
"...we got scolded, aren't we?" asked Toneri to Hinata. she just shrugged.
the girls were busy taking photos everywhere. not to mention Hinata dragged to get in every photos and selfie.
"look at those girls... i mean... taking photos doesn't make them prettier than ever. why they took so many?" Shikamaru looked annoyed.
"let them be... when we were young they couldn't have it-" Sai commented.
"I still couldn't believe it... she's been crush for years and yet she didn't make it. poor Hinata-"
"Crush? who?" asked Naruto. Everyone looked at him, didn't know how to answer it.
"c'mon... let the past stil on the past-" said Toneri who suddenly be right behind them.
"no, no, we're just fooling around, ri-right,Sai?" Kiba looked panic.
"yeah, but i believe he's serious about her crush on Naruto-" Shikamaru shut Sai's mouth a bit late, but then Toneri just smiled.
"I know. That's why I saw a big chance, don't you think so?" he looked fine. but the other party looked so surprised.
"huh? seriously?" asked Naruto.
"she WAS, okay?" Toneri stated it to make clear.
"calm down, dude... Hinata is already yours," Sai patted his shoulder.
Toneri just smiled at them. he looked around the venue. Everyone looked happy. He felt strange to have a big party like this.
Hinata came to his side and looked worried. He just asked her to not worry him. Then, he suddenly wanted to hug her and asked for her permission.
"...We're already married, Toneri-" She answered awkwardly.
without any hestitation he held her tightly right there and become the main focus in there.
"Thanks... Hina-" he whispered on her ears. his fluffy hair tickled her cheek.
"...-mm" she nodded and held him as well.
