The Agreement

Chapter 5: Prenuptials and Premarital Fights

Naruto looked like he was about ready to fall asleep as Sasuke and Hinata's lawyer went over all the details of the prenuptial agreement. Sakura was clearly not as interested either, but she was doing a much better job than Naruto by at least pretending to look like she cared. However, by the time that the lawyer began talking about the necessary documents for legal marriages in Konoha, Sakura was as zoned out as Naruto. Sasuke had a feeling if he and Hinata hadn�t been so attentive to how Sakura and Naruto would react, they would have been bored and zoned out too. Sasuke had never heard a more apathetic and boring speaker before.

"I strongly suggest reviewing all of the documents," the lawyer urged. "Everyone should know what they are signing for in these docs. Then, please sign and date on the lines where your names are written underneath," the old lawyer finally said. Naruto seemed to pop out of his stupor, his bottled energy returning to him in full force as he took the documents and signed his name, barely reading enough of it to know where his name went before practically dashing out of the room. Sakura was next, and she too did not bother to read the document before quietly leaving to follow her fianc� out of the room. Hinata and Sasuke both signed their names, handed the papers back to the lawyer who gathered his things, bowed, and then left.

Hinata looked at Sasuke rather bemusedly as they went to find where Sakura and Naruto had run off to.

"They didn't even read the legal papers," Hinata said quietly.

"Wasn't that part of the point? If they had, do you think they would have agreed to go through with it?" Sasuke asked.

"Well, of course, but we're misleading them Sasuke. I don't think I l-like this too much," Hinata said. "Should we t-tell them?"

"They should have been listening. The lawyer clearly stated that when the four of us wed that we would all be considered to be married to the other three. I didn't realize he was going to actually say that part out loud, but they were clearly not paying attention if they didn't say anything about it. They looked like zombies. We're not going to say anything if they weren�t even listening like they should have been. Don't you want to be married to Naruto?" Sasuke asked, feeling a bit putout that Hinata seemed to be backing down at the last minute.

"O-of course I do!" Hinata answered defiantly, "It's just, aren't we lying to poor Naruto-kun and Sakura-chan?"

"What about Naruto? Are you going to let him just be fatherless?" Sasuke asked. Hinata didn't answer. Sasuke sighed. "Do you really think Naruto will be happy with Sakura in the long run?" Sasuke asked seriously. He had asked her before, and she had said no. He wondered if her answer had changed. After seeing Naruto and Sakura together from the day before, he had felt slightly unnerved as though he could possibly be ruining Naruto's happiness with Sakura. Hinata didn�t answer, but Sasuke continued to press her, needing to give her closure that she was doing the right thing as much as he needed to give himself closure that he was doing the right thing. �Do you really think, knowing how alone Naruto has been his entire life, do you really think that he doesn�t crave for a family? Don�t you think he wants children, and do you think he�ll be truly happy, despite what he�s told Sakura, if he never has children?�

"No," she replied sadly. "But I feel like I've gotten closer to Sakura-chan since we started doing the wedding arrangements together," Hinata said, tapping her index fingers together nervously.

"When we all get married, don't forget that you'll be married to Sakura too, so if you feel that close to her, then we can tell her, and then all four of us will raise the children together," Sasuke said softly.

"Y-yes, that would be much better-"

"Except there's the fact that Sakura would hate you for loving Naruto," Sasuke murmured quietly.

"N-nani?" Hinata asked. Sasuke looked at her, and sighed.

"Ino and Sakura were best friends. Ino was the one who took care of Sakura when they were both younger. People always bullied Sakura, and Ino went out of her way to stick up for her. And it was Sakura who after being protected by Ino threw away their friendship because as mere children they both had a crush on me. How do you think Sakura would react to knowing that you're still in desperate and utter love with her husband, and you're the only one who can bear him children? It wasn't until after she found out that you were engaged to me that she bothered to look your way in how long? Don�t you think it shows just how much that she was angry at you for liking Naruto?"

"B-but, I-"

"And she was still upset about you marrying me in the first place. Naruto told me," Sasuke said, before Hinata could ask, "and he said that she seemed disturbed at the fact that we were marrying so suddenly, but was only appeased due to the fact that it seemed to be an arranged marriage and not due to love, so even then she seemed jealous of you-"

"But why would i-it matter that it was you I w-was marrying when-"

"Because I still think Sakura has feelings for me," Sasuke said.

"D-does she love y-you or N-naru-"

"I think she loves us both," Sasuke said, again cutting Hinata off, who was looking more and more miserable at Sasuke�s harshness. He honestly wasn�t trying to be mean but trying to be practical. "I think she'd rather be with me if she had her choice," Sasuke said, trying not to sound too disgusted with that thought, "but has come to care for Naruto enough that she will settle for him. I hate the idea of her settling for him. I hate it so much." Sasuke clenched his fingers into a tight fist, and it wasn't until he felt something warm and wet sliding down the bottom of his hand that he realized he had squeezed so hard that his fingernails had bitten into his own flesh, causing himself to bleed. "She's just settling for him because she knows that I want children."

"We're settling," Hinata replied in a small voice.

"It's different! We're settling because we have no choice!"

"W-well, S-Sakura-chan doesn't have a c-choice either," Hinata tried reasoning with Sasuke.

"This is different," he hissed again, his sharingan activating in his anger. "Naruto should never be settled for! He is the only one! He is above everyone else. I think that is why I can't stand the idea of Naruto and Sakura together. Even you and he would have been more bearable because he would have at least been loved completely, utterly, and unconditionally. He deserves to be treated as number one. I-" Sasuke's voice faltered. He realized he was scaring Hinata as he showed just how deeply obsessed he had become with Naruto. "For the longest time I wanted to be number one. I was number one. Then, I realized, that it's so much better if Naruto is number one, because it's Naruto, and no one who has ever met him � no one who hasn't been thick brained and stupid � could ever return to their normal life without knowing that the world is a much better place with Naruto at the top," Sasuke said, his eyes losing their red hue and returning to normal.

"Sasuke-kun," Hianta murmured softly, in awe of his revelation.

"I love him, Hinata, and I can't understand why everyone doesn't love him as much as they should. How can people be so blinded? How could I have been so blinded and stupid before...?" Sasuke asked the last question more to himself. Hinata had no answer for him. The two of them walked out of the Hyuuga complex and headed towards the gardens, only to find a surprising situation as they watched Sakura and Naruto arguing.

"I told you, Sakura, I'm not going without my shinobi weapons," Naruto said, apparently arguing with Sakura about his unhappiness at what he would be wearing at the wedding.

"There will be plenty of other people there who will have their weapons, why do you have to have yours? You have ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu. Well, I guess in your case not really genjutsu, but you still have ninjutsu and taijutsu if you need it. You don't need to carry weapons," Sakura argued.

"But Sakuraaaaa," Naruto whined.

"That's final Naruto," Sakura said before huffing away, Naruto looking crestfallen. Sasuke raised his eyebrows, finding the entire situation very odd.

"Hinata, are you letting Sasuke carry weapons?" Naruto asked miserably.

"I-I don't forbid him t-to do things," Hinata stammered. Naruto merely sighed. "Why don't I try and see if I can talk to Sakura-chan for you, N-Naruto-kun?" Hinata offered gently. Naruto's expression brightened.

"Thank you, Hinata!" Naruto said giving her a large grin as Hinata went to find Sakura.

"What was that about?" Sasuke asked. Naruto sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

"Sakura�s grandmother made her promise when she was younger that she wouldn�t carry any weapons at her wedding if she ended up becoming a shinobi like her father. Her grandmother didn�t really approve of her becoming a shinobi, saying it was too unladylike. But," Naruto said, scratching his head, "it would just feel weird for me not to have weapons. I don�t understand why I can�t at least have weapons."

"Even if Sakura doesn't let you," Sasuke said, trying to keep a sneer out of his voice, thinking how Sakura called herself a shinobi and wanted to be disarmed at such a political wedding that could cause all sorts of problems, "I'll be wearing my weapons pouch, and you can use some of mine."

"Thanks Sasuke!" Naruto said.

"I can�t believe she wants to forbid you from carrying weapons," Sasuke said incredulously.

"Well, she does have a point. I mean, I should be able to use ninjutsu, taijutsu, ...and genjutsu..." Naruto muttered the last bit.

"Maybe Hinata will bring her to her senses," Sasuke said.

But as it was, Hinata could not bring Sakura to her "shinobi" senses. It bothered Sasuke greatly, and it wasn't just because a shinobi should always carry weapons. The main reason it bothered Sasuke was because Naruto was going to actually listen to her. He always knew that Naruto tended to do what Sakura said, but it still bothered him nonetheless.

Sasuke felt as though Sakura were trying to make Naruto be less of himself. He was a shinobi, and as a shinobi, he wanted to carry his weapons. It was only natural. Naruto should have what he wanted, which was part of the reason that Sasuke had never tried (at least, not that hard) to persuade Naruto to not pursue Sakura. In a strange way, Sasuke felt that Naruto needed Sakura to accept him. It was something that Naruto had promised himself that he would do, and he never went back on his promises. Still, it wasn�t that Sasuke thought that it was good for Naruto to do want to be with Sakura, which was why he had made arrangements otherwise in desperate hopes that Naruto would change his mind after he saw how much Sakura would limit what he truly wanted. Didn�t Naruto realize that Sasuke would give him anything that he wanted? Everything that he wanted? Sasuke was even willing to help Naruto get Sakura despite the fact that Sasuke thought she was desperately wrong for him, wrong for making his Naruto do things he didn�t want to!

Thinking about how much he hated it when Sakura denied Naruto some of his pleasures, it was to Sasuke's pleasant surprise that Sakura was put in her place from an unexpected ally.

The day before the wedding, everyone was going through the rehearsal for the wedding ceremony, Naruto constantly asking for people to repeat where he was supposed to go when Neji spoke.

"Why don't you write a small note to yourself, and put it in your weapons� pouch and pull it out if you need to? Oh, but I had forgotten, you're not allowed to carry a weapons pouch," Neji said, obviously not having forgotten, though Sasuke did wonder how he knew about the disagreement between Sakura and Naruto in the first place. The idea of a list in the weapon's pouch seemed very impractical. Who would consult a list during the middle of a wedding? Nonetheless it appeared that Neji had been waiting for some way of brining up Sakura�s request to Naruto to not wear weapons; mentioning the weapons� pouch to hold a reminder note had clearly been the first opportunity.

"What do you mean, you will not be carrying your weapons pouch?" Hyuuga Hiashi asked, turning a frowning gaze upon Naruto.

"Well," Naruto said, scratching the back of his head nervously, "Sakura-chan requested that I don't carry one."

"I asked Neji-nii-sama if he wouldn't mind carrying some extra weapons for Naruto if he needed to use them," Hinata said miserably, though Sasuke now knew how Neji knew about the disagreement between Naruto and Sakura.

"I see," Hiashi said, disapprovingly. "And what is the reasoning that a shinobi, with the possible threat of such a highly anticipated wedding be unarmed?" Hiashi said, his face sternly looking at Sakura. Sakura seemed to shrink slightly.

"It was, I mean, o-our wedding, and m-my grandmother didn�t want me to carry weapons..." Sakura said, all excuses seemingly useless against the furious glare of Hiashi.

"Sakura, I�m surprised at you," Mr. Haruno said, looking at his daughter strangely.

"Hinata-sama has not asked such a thing of Sasuke," Neji said almost gleefully, and Sasuke finally thought he saw where Neji was going with this. He wanted to stir up as many problems between Sakura and Naruto that he could and place Hinata in a better light in Naruto's mind.

"What a disgraceful thing to ask of a shinobi husband," Hiashi said, clearly disgusted. The other Hyuuga members murmured their agreement.

"Indeed," Mr. Haruno agreed, clearly a very traditional ninja, and also clearly displeased that his mother-in-law had influenced Sakura�s traditions more than he had.

"B-but I agreed! Sakura didn't make me. She�s following her grandmother�s wishes," Naruto said, clearly getting angry that everyone was ganging up on Sakura.

"Of course you agreed, because you are a good husband. A good husband would not disobey his bride-to-be's request. It is she who is at fault for asking such a thing," Hiashi said firmly. It appeared that Naruto didn't have anything to say to this. If it weren�t for the fact that Sasuke was so upset with Sakura himself, he might have tried to stop the elder males ganging up on Sakura, but he didn�t. Sakura was strong, and if she were in the right, he was sure she would and could defend herself. As it was, he thought she was clearly in the wrong.

"G-gomen, Naruto. Everyone is right," Sakura said, finally giving in. However, if Neji and Hiashi had thought that they had painted Hinata in a better light and discredited Sakura in Naruto's viewpoint, they clearly didn't know Naruto as well as they thought they did.

Sasuke frowned, thinking that both Neji and Hiashi had just managed to make Naruto want to do what Sakura said more than he had before. Still, he couldn't help but notice that Naruto seemed happy at the idea of carrying his weapons� pouch, even if he was upset with the way that people had ganged up on Sakura.

No, Neji and Hiashi didn't know Naruto, nor did Sakura. She clearly didn't understand the pain she would have caused Naruto by denying him to wear his weapons� pouch, one of his proud symbols of being a shinobi.

Only Sasuke understood Naruto, which is why he would do everything in his power to make Naruto happy in the long run, even if he had to hurt him by showing him how wrong Sakura was for him.

Next Chapter: Wedding Day

As you can see, Sasuke is getting more and more psycho and obsessive over Naruto. It will only get worse. And Neji is finally starting to interfere a little. He�ll get more creative later on.
