Tsunade: congratulations. She's finally legal to marry you.

Kakashi: eh? Legal... Wait she's legal?!! I've never really noticed. Hahaha.

Tsunade: you are a pedophile.

Kakashi: don't make it sound that way tsunade-sama.

Tsunade: so? Are you going to propose to her?

Kakashi: probably.

Tsunade: probably? I'm disappointed in you Kakashi. She's a really nice girl. Despite her age, she does need a man to take care of her. And not as a father.

Kakashi: I know that tsunade-sama.

Shizune: early congrats then.

Kakashi: arigato.

Sasuke: hey.

He was standing outside her house.

Ryuushi: what?

Sasuke: invite me in.

Ryuushi opens the door for him and enters after him " don't you have Sakura? "

Sasuke: I didn't come here for that. Tell me, who's stronger? Me or itachi?

Ryuushi: why?

Sasuke: I know you collected his body after his sharingan was taken, Obito told me. The body disappeared after kabuto died. Do you have it?

Ryuushi: and you only ask me now.

Sasuke: that's not the only reason why I'm here.

Ryuushi: what's the matter?

Sasuke: why did you hand over his body to kabuto?

Ryuushi: I didn't hand his body over. It was snatched away from me. Obito snatched it away from me. It was the last thing I would give.

Sasuke: he used sharingan on you?

Ryuushi: yea...

Sasuke: I wouldn't have come looking for his body if it is with you. I know you'll treasure it. Except... Did you love him?

Ryuushi: you came all the way here to ask that question?

Sasuke: will you waver if Kakashi asks you to marry him?

Ryuushi: sasuke... Itachi aishterunda... For a period of time when Kakashi wasn't with me. We had the same things and thinking. He's... A memory I'll never forget. As precious as papa and mama.

Sasuke: I see... That's enough for me.

She summons a scroll " here's itachi's body. "

Sasuke: you can keep it. It's better being cherished than in the ground.

Ryuushi: arigato.

Sasuke: you're outside aren't you? Kakashi.

Sasuke leaves.

Kakashi pov :

I heard everything. I walked in and she stood up " are you angry? " I hugged her " no. I'm... Happy. Marry me ryuu ryuu. I want to be someone you cherish. "

Ryuushi: you are.

Kakashi: aishteru ryuu ryuu... *kisses lips*

Ryuushi: mmm.... Aishteru.
