Hey guys! :D

I have another one-shot for you guys.

Rated: T depends on how you want to look at it.

Summary: It's that time of the relationship Sasuke noticed. It was time to ask those those important 4 words, to the woman he hoped to spend the rest of his life with.


You fumble with the ring gin your pocket, as you walk home with nervous energy running through your systems. It's been weeks since you bought the ring, and weeks that you even grew the balls to admit that you wanted to marry her.

It's nerve-wracking though. Asking advice from Shikamaru, Asuma-sensei, and even Naruto helped a little bit with the nerves, but it still freaked him out. How on earth was he going to propose to her?

You wrack your brain for any idea, just anything to help with your erratic thinking process. It has to be romantic, but not overwhelming because Hinata is a relatively quiet person. She likes flowers, but roses are too cliché. Taking her out to a expensive restaurant doesn't feel right for the occasion. It had to be special. An Uchiha never does anything half asses ever!

But all the thinking was seriously making your brain hurt. And you surely felt that you'll get a heart attack, if things don't work out. Shaking your head, you try to push off every negative thought that came across your mind.

Looking off to the distance, your eyes flash seeing it all take place. You found it. The perfect place to propose.

Without a second thought, you rapidly called for reinforcements to prepare for the event, speaking rapidly in the phone. When you were done, you double checked the time seeing that you had a few short hours to have everything set up. That was enough time for you to get ready, and for Hinata to get ready.

You cross your fingers and prayed hoping that everything would go smoothly.

After calling your girlfriend to get ready, you began to recite your words over and over, hoping you wouldn't forget later. You had to get these words right, there's no way you plan on messing that up.

She would remember these words. She just had to.

Before you know it, you had to swing by and pick her up. She immediately noticed your sudden nervousness and asked, "Hey are you okay?"

"I-I'm fine sweetheart, just a little jumpy today."

She gave you once over , before you pulled out of the drive way and into the night. Small chat happened between the both of you, and it helped ease your nerves just a little. You reached over the console and gave her hand a small squeeze, as you finally reached your destination.

It was a small park where they first met, just on the outskirts of the village. It was the perfect place to have a night picnic, just looking under the stars. He peered over his shoulder to see his friends: Naruto, Kiba, Asuma, and Kakashi quietly sneaking away and giving you the thumbs up before disappearing altogether in the dark.

You turn to hear her gasp in awe, as her eyes locked on a blanket spread out under the tree, with dinner already prepped and sparkling cider in an iced bucket.

Motioning her to sit, you began to feed her as you retell your adventures that happened this morning. The night sky was filled with laughter, small kisses, and just overall happiness.

Sitting side by side, you watch her gaze at the stars happy that she was satisfied with their little picnic.

You knew it was almost time.

"Sasuke, what's with all of this? It's been awhile since we've been doing stuff like this." She admitted shyly, hiding under her bangs as her cheeks flush.

You took a deep breath, almost thinking that she had figured it all out. But you sighed in relief seeing that she wasn't even aware.

You pull from her touch and looked in her purple orbs, and gave her a sweet kiss before continuing.

"I just wanted to cherish the moment with you Hinata…Because you see I've been thinking lately about everything that happened between us. And I just knew that you were it for me. Even when we first met, I knew you were different. You weren't the girl that tried to reach for my attention. I was looking for yours. I knew then that I wanted you."

She giggled, but didn't stop you from continuing.

"And you even rejected me! Man, that hurt my pride a little," You joke, earning a slap from your girlfriend. "But in the end It worked out didn't it?"

"Yeah it sure did."

"And then I remember how I fell to the dark side with my brother dying and all, and became so self-destructive…For that I'm sorry for the way I treated you. You stood your ground and never let me sink any deeper. And I knew then I needed you. You said that you would be there for me, and you broke down my walls." You admitted your voice starting to get really shaky. "I never felt so scared letting my walls break, and I knew I wasn't the easiest guy to you know get to know…but you were there."

"And every day since we've been together. Every little moment we shared, the kisses we had, the fights we had. In the end, in my heart I knew that I will always love you. And I don't plan on stopping you not unless you tell me to." You felt a tear escape your eye, and you turned around, kneeling one knee, holding her hand with you left as you reached in your pocket.

She gasped, and you saw tears running down her cheeks.

You pulled out the box that had the ring, and opened it slowly. It was a silver band, with a sizable diamond on top. It wasn't so big, and it wasn't so small. Hinata always like the simplicity, you remembered. You felt it was the right ring for her. There were also the words engraved along the band, My Angel on one side, and the other read Forever.

Your heart rate was out of control, seeing her speechless, you swallowed deeply before asking, "You are the love of my life Hinata. You saved me from nearly destroying myself, you made me realize that's okay to forgive the things that went wrong in my life. You…you made me a better man. If it wasn't for you I may not be the man that stands before you."

"From this day on, I want to spend the rest of my life being with you Hinata…I want to see you carry our child. Watch them grow up, and I want to grow old with you. Just every step from here on out, I want to share it you."

"I will always love you Hinata…"You pause, before taking another deep breath, "And I'm here kneeling before you, hoping that you will say yes... Hinata will you marry me?"

You waited again, seeing her sob freely in front of you, you were nearly worried that you could've scared her. Her hands were clasped over her mouth, to keep from crying, as she tried to will her tears away, but the tears relented. Before you knew it you were tackled to the ground, with her lips pressed against yours making you smile in realization.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" She chanted, her voice still watery, "Yes I'll marry you!"

She held out her hand, smiling brightly as you slid the silver band on her ring finger. You continued to hold her hand, kissing it soundly before capturing her teary orbs whispering, "My beautiful fiancée."

She kissed you again, wrapping her arms around your neck as she whispered against your lips, "I love you so much Sasuke. Thank you."
