(The following summer) Sakura smiled as the baby kicked, it would not be long until it would be born, in fact Tsunade had almost disagreed with her coming to the weddings, and while she had sadly declined to do more beyond helping plan the Hyuuga-Uzumaki-Uchiha double weddings she outright refused to miss her teammate-son's wedding.

Arashi smiled proudly at his son's side, what had been a mere ten months ago he thought he would never live to see his son live a full day, now he was being his son's best man under the alias of Minato Namikaze where as his other son stood seemingly bored by the uchiha prodigy who had he been from any other clan, he would have sworn he saw nervousness in his eyes. the knowledge of the Uchiha massacre had saddened him greatly, as had thedeath of Sarutobi. Though with the knowledge of his son's achievements, and the secret Tsunade had held from Sakura had done much to cheer him. He nodded lovingly to his Cherry blossom; and his unborn twins. They would get their wish to see their child grow up twofold and his 1st born was marrying the daughter of a man he had gone to school with.

Kakashi watched as his 'dad' seemed to leave mentally and observed the crowd rather to figure what thoughts ran through his head. It seemed everyone had paired of almost perfectly. Shikamaru had actually woke up before ten an was something of a feat he knew only accomplished by Temari or the younger man's mother, yes the wamn was glaring in his direction as it was; for a moment Kakashi hated the fact that he was up here with the lazy groomsman. He glanced to his teammates, Naruto his brother, god it had been odd when the young man had called him that; even odder still when his parents had recalled his ditty and the knucklehead had belted it continuously at tones the Kazekage could, and most likely did hear. HIs mom had alked the man into sitting beside her, no doubt to have someone to grab who it wouldn't hurt, and to have his 'rival's'copycat take the seat and hiss contradictions to her marriage regardless of her condition.

Naruto was close to exploding he had gone most of his life as a friendless orphan though the first part had slowly been altered the second had only changed just two seasons ago and it had been so fast so great standing there he hated to blink in fear it'd all go away. Instead the bridal music had just started and the kunoichi's slowly poured out of the doors each carrying a different bouquet. not that he would have noticed had not his mother and ino argued a whole week over who was getting what. Then just after the loud mouth blonde, his heart would have stopped, had it not been for the fox telling him that if he died he'd never get to kiss her again.

Sasuke activated his bloodline specialty memorizing the younger hyuuga girl as she walked arm in arm with her sister and father. It had been the day after naruto's proposal that he had noticed, really noticed, the young beauty, he had actually smiled without knowing it until she had complimented it mid conversation. After that the two were inseparable while they were awake and even then their separation had seemed to long to the last Uchiha. So on the young Hyuuga's birthday he decided to end it. After today they would never be separated again.

Tsunade smiled at her soon to be successor, and his friend/rival, they deserved the happiness the two Hyuuga's gave them, and as she conducted the ceremony she silently prayed for it to keep comming they had all been given storms to weather and had done so admirably, now was the silver lining now it was the beauty that could only be seen after the worst of storms. her eyes looked over to her apprentice as the Uchiha recited his vows, Sakura could easily surpass her once her twins were a bit older, perhaps Jairiya could travel with her some when she handed these titles over, maybe as a cristmas present.

(Reception)

Sakura was the first to congratulate her friend and son, had not he'd been kicked by his younger sibling he would have given her one of his 'renown' bear hugs. They had just Laughed it off and she went to hug the other Groom, "She's good for you Sasuke, strong enough to keep you from getting back into your pompous self." Sakura smiled, "And she makes you smile." He nodded and smiled at his bride who was in a conversation with her cousin's fiance, "Any names?" "Rin." At that her 'eldest son turned, "Rin?" She was hugged from the side in a rare show of emotion from the copy nin. She nodded, "Yes, with my strength apparently, she's been kicking since the rings were exchanged." That drew the attention of her daughter in law, "How often?" "I,, ah,," Sakura clutched Kakashi's arm, "Get your father. Now." He nodded and went into the crowd as sakura smiled at the newly weds, "Excuse me," And with that she followed, slowly.

Arashi was having fun talking to the children of the friends of his students. It was like looking at said friends again Shika-ino-cho were the same as the predecessors bar the blonde's ignorance of the phrase silence is golden. Iruka has grown to favor his mother in face but his father in persona, with lots of Sarutobi in him; the man had quite the legacy. Iruka in fact been talking of the 3rd's grandson, "Khonahamaru has really buckled down niw that Ebisu had himself admitted, Kakashi won the call on that, we thought he'd make it to see his next tormentor before he gave up and put himself in a paded c- Speak of the-, what's wrong?" "mum." Arashi paled, "Umino move. get Tsunade." When he saw Sakura freeze it was all he could not to use his more lethal abilities to clear the way to her instead he made copies and had them to escort her to him easiest way possible; carrying her.

Tsunade nodded to the confused Chunin and helped the stressed couple to a side room while it wasn't a hospitaal room she doubted the babies would wait through the trip and she wasn't dumb enough to risk the quicker method.
