"Mama! Mama!" A spiky black haired five year old boy ran towards a blonde woman, who spread her arms wide and caught him. She peppered his face with big smooches, before picking her up and carrying him. "Menma-kun! How's my little kitsune?"

Menma Uchiha, their family's ray of sunshine and rising star. There was some complications with Menma's birth so he was born prematurely. As a result he was a tiny, weak baby. The doctors were all convinced he wouldn't live beyond a week

But their baby was stronger than he looked, much to the pride of Sasuke. "He's a fighter" he had told his wife. "He's like you"

His first three years was rough. They had to take scans on his body and he was treated with extra care and delicacy, fearing he would break at just the smallest touch.

The little Uchiha was stubborn and from the start rebellious. He was always trying to go outside, or climb up to a high place. He wanted adventure

"He's the perfect combination of Sasuke and Naruko" Kushina had commented.

It was true. Menma had Sasuke's ink black hair and ivory skin, but he also has his mother's lovely blue eyes. He was also born with three black lines on each cheek, resembling whiskers. His personality would shift between being a prideful Uchiha or a fiery Uzumaki.

He was simply perfect, their perfect little darling, the embodiment of their love

He was their everything

"Where's papa?" Menma asked, nuzzling against Naruko's neck. The blonde woman smiled tenderly at her baby boy. "Work, sweetheart" she said "but he'll be home soon!"

"He better not be late" Menma grumbled. "Today's special day" he looked up at his mama, his diamond blue eyed sparkling with adoration and intelligence. Menma surprised his family by speaking full length words at the age of two, granted he was still a little slow, but his grammar and pronouncing was almost perfect

"He's going to be grow up and do amazing things" Naruko had thought. "He's going to do big things one day"

"Yep, he better not, because if he does then he's sleeping on the couch!" Naruko declared, pinching Menma's chubby cheeks.

Soon they arrived home, where the mood was filled with great excitement. Staff ran around in a  hurry to fulfill last minute touches, Naruko can hear her mother-in-law ordering a maid to do something

"So noisy" Menma said, annoyed. Naruko giggled because her son resembled his father whenever he'd get annoyed.

Sasuke and Naruko were going to renew their wedding vows to celebrate their eleventh wedding anniversary.

The venue was held at their mansion, since it was large enough to accommodate hundreds. Naruko originally wanted a small get together, but her husband and his family were insistent that this ceremony had to be extra special

After much back and forth she gave in and let her husband and in-laws have their way.

"Besides" Sasuke had told her once. "You won't be doing anything, so the stress won't affect you, let us handle it"

Naruko sat Menma down and started couching him one more time about when he was supposed to appear. He was going to be the ring bearer.

"If you make a mistake, it's ok" she promised him. Menma nodded "Ok! I got it"

Suddenly strong arms wrapped around her lithe waist "I missed you" Sasuke whispered, kissing her shoulder and neck.

"SASUKE!" Naruko squealed, spinning around and locking him in a bear hug that had him gasping for air.

While it was traditional that the bride and groom would not see each other before the ceremony, that custom had to be thrown out the window. Both of them knew it would help everyone's anxieties by being transparent.

Speaking of which, Sasuke needed to get Naruko alone. Which wouldn't be easy, given the situation. Their parents would be looking for them, his mother and mother-in-law would be dragging Naruko away soon to dress her up for the ceremony

The wedding would be held in the garden

They would come out on opposite and join hands once they were at the center, they would descend on the smiles and flashing lights waiting for them.

"Sasuke what are you-"

The black haired man pulled his blonde through the swarm of people and into a room. He proceeded to lock the door before turning to face his wife and kissing her with a persistent tongue.

"Sasuke where did this come from?" Naruko giggled.

"I told you I missed you didn't I?" Sasuke smirked.

After how long this busy month has been he was determined to having his wife all to himself after this event. He booked a flight to Brazil, where they'll be spending their time together without their nosy family. And as much as they loved their son to the moon and back, they really wanted some time for just the two of them

"There's something you need to know about" Sasuke whispered. Naruko tilted her head, curious. "What is it?"

The dark haired man looked to his left, and Sakura emerged from behind the thick curtains. "H-hi" Sakura greeted awkwardly.

Naruko stood there, shocked.

Sasuke bumped her shoulder "say something you beautiful dobe"

"You... you look great" Was all Naruko managed. Sakura smiled "me? You look amazing Naruko! I see your husband's been taking great care of you"

Naruko turned to her lover. "He sure has"

"Umm... Sasuke told me you have a baby now?"

"His name is Menma, he's five" the blonde revealed. She took a deep breathe "He uhh, he once found a high school photo of the three of us, he started asking questions about who you were... he was really curious, but I got angry when he kept asking and... " now Naruko was crying.

"Oh, Naruko I'm so so sorry!" Sakura walked up to her former best friend and embraced her tight. "I'm so sorry please forgive me! I don't even remember the reason I did what I did eleven years ago.." The pink haired woman cried "I just remember feeling angry, and bitter, and... "

The two women were sobbing.  Naruko was slow to hug back but when she did it was like she never wanted to let go. "It hurt a lot. But I'm tired of being angry, I just want my best friend back, the Sakura before the wedding, the Sakura who was my best friend"

Sakura's arms went tighter. "I'm here"

"But what about-"

"Your parents know I'm here, they weren't happy of course but they didn't stop me either" Sakura explained.

"Itachi was the most welcoming, but he did threaten to chop my body to miniscule pieces and then feed me to his crows if I pull a similar shit move again"

Naruko laughed, wiping away her tears.

"Would you like to meet Menma?"

"Absolutely!"

The three exited the room, and right on time too, they bumped into Menma. "There you two are! Where have you been?" Menma frowned at his parents.

He looked at the pink haired lady with them. He recognized her from the photo he found. "Hello" he greeted 

"Hey little guy" she knelt down and smiled at him.

"Menma-kun, this is your auntie Sakura" Naruko introduced. Menma offered his hand, and Sakura shook it, impressed with his strong grip.

"Are you gonna be at the wedding?"

"Yeah" Sakura said, smiling. "Wouldn't miss it for the world"
