Well let's get this final chapter up and running so enjoy

Ch10: Present Love

Laughter was heard in the back of the Namikaze's winter home, Sakura watched Naruto getting licked by his dogs, but Kelly decided to sit next to her. Her boyfriend had told her that Kelly had really taken a liking towards the rosette, and the silver and white female listened more to Sakura than Naruto. The blonde's laughed began to grow louder as the other dogs wouldn't get off of him, he used all his strength to get the huskies off of him, but Demon was the one he had trouble the most. Just like Naruto and Sakura were together, Kelly and Demon were mates, though they weren't expecting pups soon.

"All right Demon, I love you too boy, but I'd appreciate it if you got off of me," the blond commanded in-between laughs. The black and white mixed husky did what his master was told Naruto got up and wiped off the dog drool with a towel he brought out. "Ugh now I got to wash my face, thanks guys," the dogs barked in response. Sakura just giggled, this made Naruto look at her. "Oh so you think this is funny huh?"

"Yes," she said while giggling.

The blond had a devious smirk on his face, "Get her." The huskies ran towards their new target and began to give Sakura doggie kisses.

"Naruto-kun, call them off." Sakura laughed as she tried to push them off.

"Now you know how I feel like and besides you asked for it," he said as he sat next to Demon in the snow.

"Naruto-kun, please call them off," his girlfriend begged, Sakura's sides were starting to hurt.

The blond looked at Demon. "What do you say boy, think she had enough?" The dog barked in response, Naruto got up and called his dog off he walked towards Sakura and gave her his towel.

"Thanks," she noticed he was laughing. "What's so funny?"

Sakura yelped as the blond brought her up and close to his chest, his forehead pressed against hers. "Now we're both covered in dog slobber."

Before he could claim her lips, Sakura pushed him.

"Naruto-kun, are you nuts? I'm not going to kiss you tasting like dog." The blond laughed again.

"Aw come on Sakura-chan," swiftly, he claimed her lips. Sakura succumbed and returned it, but after a while she smacked Naruto with the towel. "Ouch, what the hell was that for?" smack, "Sakura-chan."

"That was for kissing me while smelling so bad, I don't like to have you kiss me smelling like a dog and I don't like kissing you smelling like one too, and the other smack was for cursing." She finished with crossing her arms over her chest.

Naruto just chuckled, "But still, you enjoyed the kiss."

"I hate you, but yes I did." She blushed as Naruto began nibbling her ear. "Naruto-kun, stop now," she said in a shaky voice.

"Fine," he whispered in her ear.

The two entered the house and washed up, they walked into town Naruto had his arm wrapped around Sakura's waist, while she rested her head on his shoulder. They bought some things for the winter house they also bought some decorations for the Christmas tree Sakura was surprised when she found a horse in Naruto's backyard as they came back from their shopping.

"Oh Sakura-chan, this is Thunder, he was my horse when I was young, except he was a pony." The blond let out a laugh.

"So he's going to pull the tree," she curiously asked.

Naruto raised a brow and smiled, "Yep, he sure is." Naruto strapped the harness on the horse he then attached a giant sled on the end of the harness. The blond grabbed the reins and guided the horse to the lumberyard, where Sakura would pick a tree and then he'd cut it down.

"Oh Naruto-kun how about this one," Sakura said as she pointed at the tree with a very luscious color and a healthy trunk, the blond nodded, he positioned the sled in the right spot and began to chop down the tree. It took him ten swings to bring it down Sakura blushed at how strong her boyfriend was. As soon as they returned, Naruto put the tree up and Sakura helped him decorate. The two went inside the kitchen and began to prepare their Christmas meal, while Naruto was working on the turkey, while Sakura was working on the cake. After dinner was finished and desert, Naruto poured them some hot coco, he entered the living room, where Sakura was sitting on the couch and looking at the decorated tree. The rosette happily thanked the blond as he handed her the warm drink. Naruto pulled the blanket of them, the two set the drinks down and cuddled, he had his arm around her waist, while the rosette rested her head on his chest. "Beautiful isn't it?"

"Not as beautiful as you are Sakura-chan," she looked at him and noticed he held a thick rectangular velvet shaped box. He opened it and she gasped, "It was my mother's, and I knew she would've wanted you to have it." He gently put the silver necklace around her neck, attached to it was a small silver heart.

"Naruto-kun," tears began to fall down her cheeks.

"Sakura-chan what's wrong?" He worriedly asked.

Sakura buried her face in her hands, "I didn't get you anything."

"Sakura-chan," he put her hands down and cupped her cheeks. "The greatest gift for me was you remembering me and that's all I really wanted."

The two stared into each other's eyes and both looking deep into their souls.

"Sakura-chan," before they knew it, their lips claimed each other. Naruto wrapped his arms around her waist, while Sakura buried her fingers in his hair.

"Naruto-kun," she softly whispered.

He looked into her eyes, "Yes Sakura-chan?"

"Take me before the fire," his cerulean eyes looked deep into her emerald ones, and understood that this is what she, no they wanted. And with that the fire blazed as their heat filled the room.

The sun shone brightly and gently touched Naruto's face he stretched and looked down only to find Sakura cuddling him. His small chuckle woke up the rosette, she cutely yawned and smiled and her lover.

"If this what life's going to be like waking up next to you," he buried his face into her hair, "I'm most definitely going to enjoy it."

"Same here," Sakura happily sighed as she cuddled again.

Then Naruto became worried, "Oh shit, Sakura-chan, I didn't use a condom."

"Its fine Naruto, I already took a birth control pill, so no worries." The rosette explained.

"Oh okay," he blushed in embarrassment.

"Now can we go back to bed, I want to cuddle some more." She mumbled against his skin.

Naruto couldn't help but chuckle, "All right Sakura-chan, all right."
