Thanks to you all, I have put up the third installment for Reading of Married Life Drabbles. If you guys want more of this, just rate and review this story. You guys can also recommend me some NaruHina stories which are either very short, like less than eight chapters, or one-shots, two, three-shots, related to one if my favorite pairing : The Lavender-Eyed Fox. ( Lemons will be appreciated along with NaruHinaHarem)


Note : I am going to try to write in present tense in this chapter, so please bear with me.

Three very special people are also coming in this installment. In total there are seven.

1. Older Naruto and Older Hinata.

2. Secret.

3. Secret.


Naruto stifled a yawn, as he kept an arm around Hinata, sitting atop the Hokage Mountain. Since Naruto was promoted to Chunin due to his work in the Suna-Oto invasion, he had all the time in the world to hang around with his girlfriend.

It had been a week since they last saw the future, with the help of Gekka-O. He even told Hinata of his burden. Expecting some sort of harsh reaction, he was totally dumbfounded when she just hugged him and claimed that that made him a braver man.

Naruto looks towards Hinata, who did the same. " Ano, when do you think Gekka-O-sama will show us more ?" He asks.

Hinata thinks for a while, before answering him, " I think it will be soon." She looks towards the setting sun, before telling him, " My father wants you for dinner tomorrow. He wants to inform the elders of our relationship."

Naruto notices the sadness in her eyes, " What's wrong ?"

" It's just that they will probably not agree to the relationship." Hinata's eyes began to water. " They might forbid me from seeing you again, or worse, send someone after you." She grabs his shirt, as she wore his jacket. She stopped wearing her own, as she became more confident with her body.

" Hey, nothing's going to happen." He whispers in her ear as he hugs her.

Soon, her tears were dried, thanks to Naruto wiping her eyes, and both of them were in a good mood. Night had fallen over Konoha and the couple were having the time of their life seeing the various stars. And with a flash, they were transported to the cinema they were to be brought to.

However, it seemed as if there were three more people with them. The first one had blond hair, similar to Naruto, and cerulean blue eyes. He wore the Hokage robe. Naruto's eyes widened, that was the Yondaime. So did Kakashi's, since the Yondaime was his sensei. " Minato-sensei ?" He asks him.

The second person was a female, having fiery red hair that reached down to her waist. She had purple eyes, which had a hint of mischievousness to it. She was wearing the standard Jonin uniform. Tenten's and Kurenai's eyes widened since they were in the presence of the Red Death. And again Kakashi asks her, " Kushina-san ?"

Hinata's eyes widened at the sight of the third person in the room. Ino noted that they looked quite similar. The woman had black hair, with hints of blue. And it was obvious that she was a Hyuga, due to her lavender pupil less eyes.

" Kaa-san ?" Hinata asks, her voice barely above a whisper, but audible to all. When the lookalike nods, Hinata rushes towards her mother, receiving a hug which could make up for all the time lost.

The Yondaime and the Red Death looks towards Kakashi and asks, " Where is Naruto ?" Naruto got stiff at this point. Were they here to finish what they started twelve years ago ? Kakashi simply points towards his blond student.

Slowly, both of them walk towards Naruto, who was a bit afraid at this point. The Red Death got on knee level and slowly reaches her hand towards Naruto. What she did next surprised not only him, but everyone, with the exception of the Jonins and Hitomi, who was still hugging Hinata.

She glomped him into a hug, which was later joined by the Yondaime. Confused with the whole event, Naruto asks her, " Ano, why did you do that ?"

" What ? A mother can't hug her son anymore ?" She asks him and at that point it became clear to Naruto that the woman infront of him is her mother, then by the same reasoning, the Yondaime, the man who is his idol, is his father. Teary-eyed, Naruto pulls them into a hug of their own.

Suddenly a voice boomed, " Aww, isn't that sweet ?" Gekka-O asks them. Only Kakashi nods to that. It truly was a sight to behold.

" Make sure you don't get diabetes, cause they are here to stay." Gekka-O chuckles at his own joke, but only Minato was able to understand the meaning.

" Thank you." He whispers.

" Don't thank me, thank Izanami and Izanagi, they are the one who decided to give you another chance." Gekka-O said. It had been a long time since the married creators of the universe decided on anything.

After a few hours, in which Naruto was given privacy with his parents, telling them about his life up to now, which they were no doubt pleased at, they were finally ready to see how Sakura was ( is going ?) able to woo Sasuke.

" Lets begin."


Sasuke stared at the Dango restaurant's clock, impatiently tapping his foot on the maple wood floors. It was 6:00 o' clock p.m. and Sakura still hadn't shown up. You would think after pursuing him for 15 years that she'd show up three hours earlier, but nope, she was nowhere in sight. 6:01 p.m... Sasuke's eyebrow twitched, almost offended that Sakura didn't even bother to come.

" Sasuke-Baka, I am not as bad as Kakashi-sensei." Sakura yells, in a brief moment of time when she forgot her infatuation to the Last Uchiha. It is a pretty comical sight, to Naruto at least.

Kushina, on the other hand, hummed as she knew that he is the son of Mikoto Uchiha, her best friend, beside Hitomi.

Seeing that the girl wasn't going to come anytime soon, Sasuke slung his travel bag over his shoulder and began to walk out.

The restaurant door suddenly flung open, revealing a disgruntled Sakura. Her long and flowy mauve dress hung over her knees as she stopped to catch her breath. Strands of pretty pink hair perfectly scoured her face, sticking to her rosy lips and cheeks. Sasuke just stood there for a moment, scanning her beauty as if were one of those amazing sights he'd see on one of his travels. She.. She was beautiful - but of course, that's not what the young Uchiha expressed out loud.

" But you just did." Naruto all but sang, getting on Sasuke's nerve.

" Shut up, dobe." Sasuke yells at Naruto, blushing as his more intimate thoughts were revealed to few. Silently, he pleads to Hachiman, the Shinto God of War who was held on high account for the Uchiha, ' Please kill me.'

"You're late." Sasuke said flatly, crossing his arms.

Sakura inhaled much-needed air before she apologetically replied to him, "S-sorry. I... I was getting ready, and lost track of time.."

" Maa, maa, Sakura, you really need to make up better excuses." Kakashi laughs, not affected by the glare his pink haired student gave him.

Sakura's excuse was completely transparent. She was trying her hardest to look good, and once she saw the time, she ran off as fast as her legs could take her in such an annoyingly long dress.

Sasuke uncrossed his arms, lightly sighing once he caught the meaning behind those words. He decided not to mention it with his signature arrogant smirk, and guided Sakura to her seat.

Sasuke saw a couple up ahead also about to sit down, and the man of the date pulled out the chair for the girl. Sasuke took it as a mission, and quickly pulled out Sakura's chair for her, earning him a slight blush from Sakura.

"Thank you..." Sakura uttered, trying her hardest to contain a smile.

"Yeah," Sasuke affirmed and quickly looked over the menu, "What do you want?"

"A salad." Sakura instantly replied, obviously wanting that particular item to be considerate of Sasuke's budget.

Sakura wondered why she chose that. It was obvious to her that by dieting, her female figure would not appear. She had asked Hinata a few days ago how she got her form. The reply, about strawberry milk and normal food was enough. But when she understood that her future self was doing this so Sasuke's budget wouldn't be affected, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Me as well," Sasuke agreed and called for one of the waitresses to come over. The waitress reluctantly came over, appearing shaken and scared of the infamous Uchiha, "Two salads. Extra tomatoes for me."

Sasuke's eyebrows rose, " Infamous ?" He asks no-one in particular.

But it was Gekka-O that replied, " Well, you basically betrayed the Leaf, joined Orochimaru, killed Orochimaru, killed Itachi, joined a criminal organization, threatened to destroy Konoha, then threatened to and actually attempted to kill the Gokages."

That shut Sasuke up.

"Yes!" The waitress hastily squeaked and ran off, comically crying.

"Annoyance..." Sasuke said slightly above a whisper.

Ever since all of the crap Sasuke had pulled over the years, everyone seemed to still not trust him completely - especially the villagers.

"Sasuke... Don't take it too hard, okay?" Sakura voiced, trying to cheer the "scary" Uchiha up.

"I'm not." Sasuke simply said, and refused to look up at the cheery girl in front of him.

The waitress came back, shivering immensely as she handed the two their food. She quickly set down Sakura's plate, and as she cautiously set the other plate for Sasuke she dropped it, startling everyone in the restaurant.

Naruto gave a mock impression of an angry Uchiha, " She dropped my food, now she must suffer the ultimate Uchiha technique, the glare of doom." Needless to say, that made everyone laugh, at the cost of a very angry ( and blushing Uchiha ).

Sasuke looked up, glaring at the waitress. The waitress bowed down several times, scared out of her mind.

"Calm down. Just get me another plate." Sasuke proposed with a twitchy eyebrow, and the waitress looked shocked at his calm demeanor.

"I apologize... There is no more lettuce available." The waitress managed to croak out, and Sasuke outwardly sighed.

"Okay." Sasuke mumbled, and the waitress asked if he wanted anything else "No" was his calm reply, and the waitress walked off.

Sakura studied Sasuke's expression. Obviously, Sakura wanted to take this chance to share a meal.

At this point, Sakura understood that the secret was near, so she began to focus on the scene. Unbeknown to her, Ino did the same, just to get blackmail material so she could make the Uchiha her slave.

"We can share-" Sakura boldly suggested, and Sasuke instantly turned her down.

"Just a bite of lettuce?" Sakura begged.

"No," Sasuke immediately replied.

"A single carrot stick?"

"No."

"A handful of eggplants?"

"No."

"A tomato?"

At that word, Sasuke began to slightly drool, just like Naruto would once he saw a sale of ramen.

Sasuke tapped his fingers on the table, deeply pondering over the offering of tomatoes. He finally agreed, despite the fact that he had to accept food from a non-Uchiha.

"Fine."

Sakura instantly brightened up, and lifted up a tomato with her chopsticks, slowly putting it towards Sasuke's mouth. He slightly blushed at the action, but decided to accept it anyway with an open mouth. After eating it, he hid his blush with his hand. He desperately wanted more, but he just couldn't ask.

Ino began to laugh, as Choji was jealous of Sasuke. He also wanted someone to feed him, but nooo, Ino says that he must mature first. Crazy blond.

Suddenly, Ino, Naruto and Minato felt a certain impulse to smack someone.

Sakura leaned over, her face dangerously close to Sasuke as she attempted to shove another tomato in his mouth. He quickly ate it, and looked away in embarrassment.

"Ehh? Are you blushing?" Sakura asked, grinning from ear to ear.

" No." Sasuke immediately denies.

Sasuke clenched his fists, furious that she would even suggest that. "No!"

" Way to be in tune with yourself." Asuma roared in laughter.

"Yes."

"No!"

"Yes!"

No!"

The rest of the night was flourishing with arguments and tomatoes, but it somehow, despite having such a blackened heart, made the Uchiha half-smile.

Sakura smiled at the prospect of winning her crushes heart.

" Alright, I have a date, enough chit chat, onto the next one." Gekka-O tells them.


"I'm bored." Naruto spurted, puffing out his cheeks.

" Aww, look at Naru-chan. All grown up." Kushina teases her son, something she should have done if she hadn't been dead.

Hinata blushed at the sight of seeing her future husband again. Hitomi gave a silent chuckle at the sight of her daughter. It seemed as if she had adopted Hiashi's habit when he was younger. Hiashi used to stutter whenever he was around Hitomi.

The couple was lazily sitting on the couch, obviously from not having to do anything today. After hearing Naruto's complaint, Hinata timidly gripped Naruto's hand as she wistfully stared up at the ceiling fan.

"Yeah.." Hinata mumbled tiredly, and searched her mind for something that they could do.

"You know..." Naruto spoke up, catching Hinata's attention, "We haven't gone out in a while."

"Mm..? You want to go out today? There are storm clouds out though." Hinata pointed out, but Naruto refused to give up on his idea and pulled her up from his lap.

Naruto and Hinata blushed at the fact that Hinata was using Naruto as a couch.

" Remember when we did those ?" Minato whispers to his newly revived wife.

All Kushina did was smile and get on the lap of her newly revived husband.

"Then we'll take a quick trip." Naruto quipped and picked out a large umbrella, "Come on, please?"

Hinata smiled lovingly at Naruto, and finally caved into what he wanted. "Okay. Let me put on my jacket."

Five minutes later - Konoha Streets

The clouds were definitely bleak as Hinata said - bleak enough to keep most of the residents of Konoha to stay indoors while the couple browsed around just for the fun of it.

"What should we do?" Hinata asked, curiously looking around.

Naruto looked equally curious, and wasn't exactly sure what the two could do other than to go out to Ichiraku's. But Naruto knew that Hinata wouldn't want to, so he continued looking around, puzzled.

" Naruto, you should choose other options for a date." Ino tells Naruto in a now-it-all manner.

" I could if most of the restaurants didn't kick me out." Naruto replied to her, making her hang her head in shame, as the Rookie Twelve were told of Naruto's condition by the Godaime. It made sense to her why Naruto was idiotically feared by the civilians of Konoha.

Unbeknownst to all, Minato and Kushina growled at the actions of the village they had sworn to protect.

"I don't know-" Naruto replied, but he was interrupted by Hinata's excited outburst.

"Ehh!?" Hinata noised excitedly as she stared wide-eyed at a poster, "There's an outdoor music theater just a few blocks from here."

Hinata was extremely enthused by the poster announcement; Naruto was as well, but Hinata's excited nature shined out much more. She clamped her hands together, her eyes sparkling with eagerness once her eyes met with Naruto.

"Can we go?" Hinata asked pleadingly, causing Naruto to blush from her cuteness.

Naruto, too blushed from her actions. It reminded him of them time he asked jiji to go to the park, under Inu's supervision of course.

"Yeah, of course." Naruto instantly agreed and chuckled as Hinata pulled him across the streets to the musical theater.

Hinata's eyes bulged out once she saw the bright lights of the music theater's light set shine on her, and she smiled so big she could barely contain herself. Naruto noticed her beaming happiness, and cocked his eyebrow with interest.

"You're oddly hyper.."

Hinata looked up at him, her eyes softened, "My mom used to sing to me a lot when I was young.."

Hinata just hugged her mother harder. Hitomi actually had tears in her eyes as she was reminded of the past.

Naruto's eyes lowered, and slowly reached for Hinata's hand. He gave Hinata his toothy grin - which always made the shy Hyuga smile back - and guided her to the center of the audience. (Which had barely any people around)

The next song immediately started, and Naruto winked at Hinata, causing her to do her signature tomato-red blush.

" And Hinata Shade # 5 has been discovered." Tenten announced, causing Hinata to blush again.

"May I have this dance?" Naruto asked in his best 'prince voice', and Hinata giggled at his silliness.

"Why, of course." Hinata agreed, and Naruto squeezed her delicate hands.

The two danced to the upbeat music, mostly doing their own type of dance. Naruto with his mixed version of 'The Chicken' and 'The Robot' and Hinata with her 'Clumsy Ballerina' and 'Raise the Roof' version. The two may have looked silly, but the song drowned out all of their worries.

Everyone, including Naruto and Hinata, laughed at their dance style.

You're whispering in my ear
Tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause that's true
That's what I like about you!

The couple laughed at each other once they caught wind of their horrible dance moves. They may have been amazing ninjas, but their dance moves needed a little bit of touching up...

What I like about you
You really know how to dance
When you go up, down, jump around
Think about true romance, yeah

"Sing with us now~!" One of the singers yelled into the microphone.

Naruto pressed both of his hands to his chest, grinning from ear to ear as Hinata snapped her fingers. They locked their gazes to each other, and laughed as they sung along.

What I like about you
You keep me warm at night
Never wanna' let you go
Know you make me feel alright, yeah

You're whispering in my ear
Tell me all the things that I wanna hear
'Cause that's true

That's what I like about you
That's what I like about you
That's what I like about you

The song ended, and the couple fell in unison on the dusty ground as droplets of rain began to fall. Naruto pulled out his umbrella and shielded them both from the rain as they heaved from exhaustion.

"You up for round two?" Naruto asked, making his beautiful wife look at him with competitive eyes.

"You're on."

Hinata and Naruto smiles at the sight of their future self. So did Minato and Kushina.

And with a flash of white, they were teleported away to Konoha again. This time, Hinata gave Naruto space since he had his parents again. And what a shock it was for Hiashi to see his beloved wife again. And he did the most Hinata possible thing ever : He fainted.


So here is the third installment. Rate and Review, and please no flames.
