CHAPTER 26! LAST CHAPTER EVER!! and an epilogue. ejoy.

"Well this is new." Neji said.

"So that's why he was so upset." Kankuro said.

"Again?" Iruka asked. Everyone was standing in the doorway of Sasuke's room staring at the two boys sleeping together.

"What do you mean again?" Shikamaru looked up at Iruka.

"So I was right." Kakashi smiled. Naruto heard murmuring and opened his eyes to see everyone there. Out of reflex he pushed away from Sasuke, but Sasuke's grip tightened and Naruto was slammed back against Sasuke's chest. Naruto looked up to see Sasuke glaring down at him.

"Sorry." Naruto said softly. Sasuke smiled.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Iruka shouted. Everyone looked at him. "Naruto, you get out of that bed right now!" Iruka snapped.

"No." Naruto said timidly.

"What? Naruto you listen to me right now and get out of that bed!" Iruka said angrily. Naruto shook his head.

"I'm not moving." Naruto said. Iruka growled.

"Uzumaki, as your superior, I order you to," Iruka started.

"You should check a calendar, Iruka-sensei." Sasuke said calmly as he cut Iruka off. Iruka paused and looked slightly confused.

"It's my 21st birthday today." Naruto said with a soft smile. "I'm no longer a servant of the Uchiha family."

"Wait what? I turned 21 last year and I'm still a servant." Shikamaru said.

"Looks like you can't do anything about it, Iruka." Sasuke said.

"This is ridiculous. Why are you two like this? Your father isn't here to punish you any more but that doesn't mean," Iruka started again.

"You seem to be under the impression that that last time was our first time, Iruka." Sasuke said calmly as he looked up at his old sensei. Iruka gasped.

"What?" Iruka asked.

"We weren't together to piss off my father. We were caught to piss him off, but we've been together for a very long time." Sasuke said. Iruka looked slightly dumbfounded.

"Wait, what?" Kiba asked slightly confused. Sasuke sat up and looked at everyone then at Naruto as he also sat up. Sasuke smiled at Naruto and took Naruto's hand and gently kissed it.

"Naruto and I are lovers." Sasuke said calmly. Naruto blushed brightly at how bluntly Sasuke had said it. Iruka nearly fainted. Neji and Shikamaru weren't all that surprised, it did explain a lot. Everyone else was just kind of confused about how to react to this new information.

"No." Iruka shook his head. Naruto laughed.

"What do you mean 'no'?" Naruto asked.

"Y-you two can't. It's just. It's just not right." Iruka shook his head.

"It's not like you can really do anything about it, Iruka. Naruto's 21 now." Sasuke said.

"But you were supposed to get married." Iruka said still very confused.

"Sasuke is already married!" Naruto snapped angrily at Iruka. Sasuke laughed softly as he looked at how angry Naruto was. He understood how frustrated Naruto was after sitting by for 17 years and keeping their 'marriage' a secret.

"What?" Kakashi asked. He had been right about the 'lovers' thing, but Sasuke being married was new. Iruka was just too stunned to even form words. Naruto pulled out the broken ring on the string around his neck.

"We've been married since I was 4." Naruto said.

"Wow, you two really have been together for a long time." Gaara said. Naruto nodded.

"No! This is ridiculous. You couldn't have gotten married when you were 4, Naruto. Neither of you were really old enough to know what marriage was." Iruka said.

"No, we had thought about it for a long time, Iruka." Sasuke said.

"That's right, we did fall in love the year before." Naruto said.

"What?" Iruka asked. "You were too young to fall in love."

"That's not true, Iruka-sensei." Sasuke said. "I was in love with Naruto even before that." Sasuke said smiling softly down at Naruto as Naruto looked up at him slightly shocked.

"What?" Naruto asked. Sasuke nodded.

"The first time I ever saw Naruto was when I was 2. I immediately was drawn to him and fell in love with him. I took him out of his parent's room and into my room. I even asked his mother if I could have him. I really did mean it. I wanted him more than anyone else in the world." Sasuke said softly. Naruto blushed and smiled. It was the first time he had heard that part of the story. Naruto pressed his face into Sasuke's back as he laughed softly.

'B-but two men together?" Iruka stuttered. "That's not right."

"How would you know? Have you tried it before?" Kakashi asked with a perverted leer.

"O-of course not." Iruka blushed.

"Well if you've never tried before, how can you say it's wrong?" Kakashi asked.

"It just is." Iruka blushed heavily.

"Prove it." Kakashi said. Anko hit Kakashi in the head.

"Shut up, Kakashi." Anko said.

"Sorry, Iruka, but Naruto and I are going to stay together." Sasuke said.

"We'll wait and see what Itachi has to say about this." Iruka said.

"Itachi already knows. He's happy about it." Naruto said. Iruka sighed. He was at a loss at what to do.

"I see." Iruka said softly.

"You should be happy, Iruka." Temari said.

"I-I am. I'm very happy that they are happy. It's just... something I'll have to get use to I guess." Iruka said.

"Thank you, Iruka." Naruto smiled. Iruka looked up at Naruto and smiled back.

"I am happy for both of you." Iruka smiled.

"Well, now that we've cleared all that up," Neji said. "Sasuke's gotten his memory back, so that's a good thing."

"Yeah, that's right. How did it even happen?" Kiba asked.

"I had a dream and I just remembered everything." Sasuke said.

"More sunshine dreams?" Gaara asked. Sasuke looked at Naruto and laughed.

"You could say that." Sasuke smiled. Everyone was slightly shocked to see how lovingly Sasuke smiled. Neji, Shikamaru and Iruka, of course, had seen Sasuke smiled like that before, but this time it seemed different because they knew how much love that smile actually held in it.

"How about we give these two a little time to themselves?" Anko said as she and Temari started ushering the men out of the room. When everyone was gone Sasuke leaned forward and brushed his lips against Naruto's. Naruto started crying again.

"Damn it." Naruto laughed softly as the tears fell uncontrollably. Sasuke laughed too and wiped Naruto's eyes. As long as they were happy tears, Sasuke didn't mind so much. Naruto stayed in Sasuke's room, his bed to be more exact, for the rest of the day and half of the next day when Itachi showed up.

"Itachi." Sasuke said with relief when he saw his brother. The night Sasuke had left, he thought Itachi was dead. Even after Iruka had told him that Itachi was alive, Sasuke still just wanted to see Itachi for himself.

"Hello little brother." Itachi smiled gently as he put a hand on Sasuke's head. "How are you feeling?"

"Very good." Sasuke smiled as he looked over at Naruto sleeping at his side.

"I'm relieved you have your memory back." Itachi said. Sasuke nodded.

"Me too." He said.

"Are you ready to go home?" Itachi asked.

"Yeah." Sasuke nodded. "Itachi, do you think the acting troupe could live with us? They did save my life and I did become very close with them." Sasuke asked. Itachi nodded.

"Whatever you want, Sasuke." Itachi said. Sasuke nodded.

"Thanks." Sasuke said.

"Oh, I did bring something for you, but it's down in the car." Itachi said.

"Really, what is it?" Sasuke asked slightly confused as to what Itachi could have brought him.

"Something for you to give Naruto." Itachi smiled. Sasuke knew what it was and looked down at the still sleeping Naruto and smiled.

"Good." He said.

"How about you wake Naruto up and have him help you down while I go talk to your friends about coming to live with us." Itachi said patting Sasuke's head. Sasuke sniffed at him and pushed the hand away. Itachi laughed softly as he left the room.

"Sunshine. Wake up." Sasuke said gently as he brushed his knuckles on Naruto's cheek. Naruto's eyes fluttered open and he looked up at Sasuke.

"Sasuke." Naruto said softly as he smiled.

"Hey Sunshine, Itachi's here. We need to get ready to go home." Sasuke said. Naruto yawned and nodded.

"What about your new friends?" Naruto asked.

"They'll be coming with us." Sasuke smiled.

"Okay." Naruto smiled as he got up. Naruto had brought all of his things into Sasuke's room the previous day so it was easy to pack it all up. "Are you ready to go?" Naruto asked. Sasuke nodded. Naruto helped Sasuke get out of bed and get outside. Before Sasuke got into the car Itachi handed him a small box.

"Oh, Naruto." Sasuke said looking over at him. "I got you something." Sasuke smiled. It had been something Sasuke had specially made for Naruto a few years ago but didn't want to give it to him until Naruto was 21.

"What?" Naruto asked slightly confused. Sasuke handed Naruto the small box with a smiled. Naruto opened it up to find a ring similar to the ring that had been crushed that was currently dangling around his neck. Except this ring was the real thing, and it was mad for a man. The silver band was a bit thicker, but still somewhat delicate looking. The blue diamond was about the same size, but was in the band and not heart shaped. Naruto gasped slightly as tears filled his eyes. "Sasuke." Naruto breathed out.

"I actually had this made when the old one was crushed." Sasuke said. Naruto laughed softly.

"Thank you, Sasuke." Naruto smiled up at him.

"Oh, and," Sasuke said as he pulled the ring out from the box. On the inside of the ring 'SLS' was engraved. Naruto laughed and let Sasuke slip the ring on his finger.

"I love you so much, Sasuke." Naruto looked up at Sasuke with joyful and teary eyes. He could barely contain his smile as he kissed Sasuke. Naruto started laughing when he broke the kiss. Sasuke just smiled at him. They stood there for a few minutes just looking at each other and smiling. "Why are you crying, Sunshine?" Sasuke asked softly.

"If I don't, I think I'll explode. I'm so happy right now, I'm overflowing." Naruto beamed at Sasuke. Sasuke smiled and wiped Naruto's tears.

"The only time I'll ever let you cry is when you're overflowing with joy like this." Sasuke said softly as he kissed Naruto's eyelids. Naruto laughed softly and pressed his face into the crook of Sasuke's neck.

"I'll be crying a lot then." Naruto laughed. Sasuke laughed too.

"Come on, let's go home." Sasuke said. Naruto nodded and wiped his eyes.

"Yeah." Naruto said.

--epilogue-

Sasuke's baby came first. Although, he wasn't really a baby. Naruto and Sasuke had been married for about two years at the time. Kiba and Temari were walking around in the front yard when they found a boy passed out at the front gate of the Uchiha manor. They brought him in and put him in a room. When the boy woke up he thanked them for their kindness.

"Could I stay here and work? I have nowhere else to go and you have been so kind to me." The boy said to Sasuke. Sasuke smiled. So far this boy was the only other person besides Naruto that could make him smile.

"What's your name?" Sasuke asked.

"Milo." He answered.

"Milo, what if I adopted you?" Sasuke asked. Milo's eyes widened.

"Really?" He asked. Sasuke nodded.

"You see, my husband and I can't have kids considering we're both men. I want to adopt you. Is that okay?" Sasuke asked. Milo laughed and nodded.

"Of course it's okay." Milo smiled brightly. Naruto had joked that Milo's dark brown hair and eyes matched Sasuke's black hair and eyes, but his smile was definitely more like Naruto's. Later they also realized his personality was a lot like Naruto's as well.

Naruto's baby came the next year. They had taken Temari to the hospital to deliver her own baby when a pregnant woman who had been in a terrible accident arrived. The doctors saved the baby, but the woman died in the process. Naruto heard two nurses talking about it in the waiting area right outside the big room with all the babies.

"Did you hear about the premature one in there right now?" The first nurse asked the other one.

"No, what about it?" The second asked.

"Well the mother was in an accident and after the doctors got the baby out, she ended up dying in her surgery. The mother has no family to speak of. That poor baby is gonna be sent to the orphanage." The first nurse said. Naruto looked in at the newest arrival. It was the premature baby. She was beautiful. What little hair the baby did have was bright red and curly. Naruto watched the baby for a few days. When the baby opened her big green eyes at Naruto and smiled at him, Naruto fell in love with her.

"Sasuke, I found my baby." Naruto said over the phone. Sasuke looked confused. Naruto had of course been in the hospital with Temari and Kiba for the past few days, but Sasuke didn't really know what his husband was talking about. "You have to come to the hospital. The baby's mother died and the orphanage is coming tomorrow to pick her up."

"Okay, I'm on my way." Sasuke said as he hung up the phone. Naruto showed Sasuke the baby girl the second he arrived at the hospital. Sasuke smiled at Naruto. "I'll see what I can do." Sasuke said kissing Naruto's head gently. Of course being that he was an Uchiha, Sasuke easily convinced the hospital and orphanage to allow them to take the baby home.

"Welcome home, baby Rina." Naruto smiled as they made it back home. Rina was yet another blessing for them. Milo instantly got along with his new baby sister. He was the perfect older brother and always tried to take care of her. Even if is attempts didn't always end well, Rina would still laugh and clap her hands, making Milo feel better. Rina was a lot like Naruto as well, but Naruto swore she had Sasuke's laugh.

"Daddy?" A three year old Rina called as she opened the door to her parents' bedroom. "Papa?" Rina called again as she walked towards the bed. She could barely make the bed out, but when a flash of lightning illuminated the room she saw it clearly. Rina cried and ran to the bed.

"Rina?" Naruto asked sleepily.

"I'm scared, Daddy." Rina cried.

"Come here, baby." Naruto said pulling Rina up on the bed. "Papa and Daddy will protect you." Naruto said softly as he kissed his daughter's cheek. Rina cuddled into the tiny space between Naruto and Sasuke. Sasuke smiled when he looked at the two fearful faces of his husband and daughter.

"Papa will protect you, Rina, since your Daddy is scared too." Sasuke said kissing the girl's forehead and then Naruto's lips. They were laying there for a few minutes when the door opened again.

"Papa? Daddy?" Milo called into the room.

"Don't tell me you're scared too, Milo?" Sasuke smiled as he felt the bed dip and Milo lay down next to him.

"I'm eight, Papa. I'm big enough not to be scared of a stupid storm." Milo scoffed. "I just came here to make sure everyone else is alright." Milo added. There was a flash of lightning. Rina cried, Naruto flinched and Milo whimpered. Sasuke smiled and pulled Milo closer. Rina was pressed more into Sasuke's side as Naruto also moved closer to Sasuke.

"Papa, tell us a story." Rina said. Sasuke smiled.

"Okay." He said softly.

Once upon a time there was this little prince. This prince was very spoiled and whatever he wanted, he got. One day when he was walking with his mother he looked up at the sky. The sky was the most beautiful blue he had ever seen and the golden streaks of sunshine were so warm.

"Mommy, I want that." The little prince said.

"I'm sorry, baby, but you can't have the sunshine." His mother told him.

"Why not?" The little prince asked.

"Because it's impossible to capture. The sun is too far away." His mother said. The little prince, however, didn't believe his mother. First he decided to catch the sun with his hands, but the sun looked kind of thin and he was afraid he would crush it. So, he tried capturing the sunlight with a jar. But he couldn't catch it. The prince held up the jar to the sky and realized that it was much too small to hold the sun and the sky. So, the little prince got his net and went out to capture the sun. No matter how much he swung his net, he couldn't catch it. The little prince then remembered his mother saying the sun was far away.

"The sky is pretty high up. Maybe if I climb that tree I can catch it." The little prince said. He climbed the tree as far as he could but it still wasn't high enough. The little prince was very sad. He was climbing down the tree and something on the ground caught his eye, something that was the same golden color as the sunshine. The little prince was amazed to see the sunshine was down on the ground. The little prince got to the ground and ran over to where the sunshine was. He swung his net and caught something.

"Ow." The caught thing said. The little prince looked up to see it wasn't sunshine he had caught but a boy.

"Oh." The little prince said taking the net off of the boy. "I'm sorry."

"What were you doing?" The boy asked.

"I thought you were the sunshine. I was trying to catch it." The prince said. The boy laughed and the little prince felt warmth coming from this boy.

"You can't catch the sunshine." The boy said.

"Why?" The little prince asked.

"Because that wouldn't be fair to everyone else. If someone caught the sunshine then no one else would get to see it." the boy smiled. The little prince looked into the sky blue eyes of the boy. This boy with his sunshine hair, his sky blue eyes and his wonderful warmth made the little prince think that he was sunshine in human form.

"Then I'll keep you instead." The little prince said. The boy looked shocked.

"What do you mean?" The boy asked.

"Well I did catch you. And you have everything that I wanted from the sunshine anyway. So I'll keep you instead." The little prince said. The boy laughed.

"You really want to keep me?" The boy asked.

"Forever and ever." The little prince said. The boy smiled and held out his hand.

"Okay, you can keep me if you promise it will be forever." The boy said. The little prince took the boy's hand and smiled brightly.

"I promise." He said. And he had never been happier. He finally had his sunshine. And the little prince kept his promise and was with the boy forever.

The next morning Itachi opened the door to Sasuke and Naruto's room and found the entire family cuddled together happily. Itachi smiled as he went to the bed. He gently brushed Rina's hair and woke her up.

"Come on, Rina, it's time to wake up." Itachi said softly. Rina nodded and allowed her uncle to pick her up from the bed. Itachi, while holding Rina, then went to the other side of the bed and gently shook Milo. "Milo, it's time to get up." Itachi said. Milo blinked at Itachi and nodded as he got out of the bed.

"That story that Papa told last night was about him and daddy, right?" Rina asked softly. Itachi smiled and nodded. Itachi started to take the kids out of the room when they heard shifting on the bed. They all looked back to see Naruto curled into Sasuke's chest and Sasuke's arms wrapped protectively and lovingly around Naruto. And both of them had small smiles on their faces.

"Why are they always so lovey-dovey?" Milo asked.

"Because Papa finally has his sunshine." Rina said. Itachi laughed softly.

"You're right, Rina. Sasuke finally has his Sunshine." Itachi smiled as they left the room. Leaving the two men sleeping blissfully with the one they loved the most. THE END.
