     Lord Danzo had killed for the Five Kage Summit Conference which was being held in the Land of Iron since it’s a neutral nation. He had become the Hokage when Lady Tsunade became unconscious when Pein had destroyed Konoha.
     We were away on a mission but apparently Naruto had taken Pein down all alone and saved Hinata. Now Sasuke had already killed Itachi and Orochimaru as well as tried to capture the Eight Tails Jinchuuriki. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. He really had joined the darkness.
     Because of the fact that Sasuke was a rouge from our village and the Eight Tails’ Jinchuuriki was the Raikage’s younger brother, the Raikage had ordered that a Five Kage Summit Conference take place.
     I walked through what was currently where we were all living hand in hand with Neji, whom I was now dating. We walked to the top of the Hokage Monument and looked at the breathtaking view.
     “(Y/n), I want to ask you something.” He said getting my attention. “What is it?” I asked. “(Y/n), I love you more than anything and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?” He asked as he got down on one knee.
     Without hesitation, I nodded and jumped on him, giving him a kiss. Carefully, he slipped a beautiful ring onto my finger.
     A few weeks later, we were once again walking down Konoha's streets. “I hope this goes well. It would be horrible to have a war right now.” I said worriedly. “It’ll be fine. Don’t stress so much.” Neji said reassuringly as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders and kissed me on the forehead. I rested my hand on the middle of his back and leaned my head against his shoulder.
     “How are we going to tell them?” I asked looking at him with a bit of excitement. He smiled and thought for a moment before looking back to me. “We could gather them all at the barbeque place and tell them then.” He suggested. I smiled and nodded happily.
     That night, all of our friends gathered at the barbeque place. Everyone began talking as I looked down at the new ring on my left hand. It had a thin silver band with a medium sized round diamond in the middle. “Are you ready?” A voice asked. I smiled at Neji and nodded as I took hold of his hand.
     “So what did you guys want to tell us?” Sakura asked curiously. I looked at Neji who nodded. I nodded back and we stood up, smiling at each other as we each held the other’s hand tightly. “We’re getting married.” I said happily as they started clapping. Shikamaru and Sakura laughed. “About time you two.” Sakura said. I smiled as Ino, Hinata, Sakura, Shizune, and Tsunade crushed me in a hug.
     Hinata then hugged Neji while Lee and the others congratulated us. “There’s one more thing too.” I said, getting a confused look from everyone including Neji.
     I looked Neji dead in the eyes and smirked, confusing them even more though he seemed to be slowly figuring it out, along with Shikamaru.
