"Are you always this cheerful before battle?" Kakashi leaned on the tree trunk next to Naruto who was almost bouncing up and down with his excitement.
"I just have a good feeling," Naruto grinned. He had his precious people near him. They numbered more than he dreamed when he sat in Taisuke's room one year ago.
Naruto knew that Sasuke was part of his future, but before he could embrace that he needed a home. He needed to build bonds, strong bonds, and a rock solid foundation. He needed to set an example for his bastard to follow, to show him that there was more to home and family than blood. He needed to show Sasuke what he had learned, that life is to be lived.
So Naruto had chosen to come back at the end of his training with Jiraiya at the age of sixteen. He'd thought about trying to come back in time to stop Sasuke from leaving, but one thing he'd learned was that he couldn't live Sasuke's life. Since he couldn't stop the massacre, he decided to let the part after that play out, to let Sasuke grieve in his own way and, ultimately, save himself. He instinctively knew that was the only path to Sasuke ever being whole again.
"Is everyone in place?" Naruto asked for the tenth time, even though he already knew the answer.
"Yes." Kakashi shook his head in bemusement. "You're certain that…" He was interrupted by the snapping of a twig overhead. He gasped as Uchiha Sasuke dropped from the trees landing before them.
"You didn't come alone," Sasuke said.
"Naw," Naruto said, grinning like an idiot. "A little birdie told me there was going to be a party…" He shrugged. "If I didn't invite these guys..." He shrugged again, still grinning.
Sasuke just stared several moments then he nodded. "Okay." He nodded again. "Good. Akatsuki isn't far behind me." Whoops of excitement could be heard from several branches overhead. "They've come to collect the demon."
He glanced around and Naruto could feel his chakra reaching out trying to figure out who was here. "I came to try…to protect you," Sasuke added lamely.
Naruto nodded, his grin widening even more. "I promised these guys a good fight." He reached into his weapons pouch and held his hand out to Sasuke. In it was the Uchiha's scratched and frayed Leaf forehead protector.
Naruto nudged his hand forward. "Whaddya say? The cloud bastards should be some decent practice."
Sasuke just stared at the item in Naruto's hand for several moments. Then he smirked, snatched it out of Naruto's hand and tied it around his head.
Minutes later, Akatsuki appeared out of the mist. The fight didn't last long; they were taken by surprise, not expecting to be met by Leaf's finest. The sun was poking through the clouds when Sasuke stepped over the body of Hidan and walked over to Naruto.
Naruto watched his lips twitch as they heard Kakashi yell to Gai, "That's one for me!"
Gai threw his arm in the air, the one stray ray of sunshine dazzling as it found its way to his abundance of teeth. "We are even my friend. One for me, as well."
A snort of laughter did escape Sasuke when he saw their crushed pride as Sakura flipped through the air and landed between them saying in a saucy voice, "Well, too bad boys, that makes two for me."
Naruto stepped into Sasuke's personal space and met his eyes.
"Welcome home, bastard."
TWO YEARS LATER…
"Oh my Gods! They are naked again!" Naruto looked over Sasuke's shoulder to see Lee slap his hand over Sakura's eyes.
"Maybe we wouldn't be if you learned to knock," Sasuke said from his position straddling Naruto's lap.
"The door was open," Lee defended, standing just inside the Hokage's office.
"Oh, yeah? Well, where's my guard?" Naruto asked, his eyes twinkling. He draped Sasuke's gi top around them, effectively covering them from view.
"He appears to be in your lap, attached to your dick," Sakura spat, shoving Lee's hand off her face. She put her hands on her hips and tapped her foot in agitation.
"Oh, was it your shift?" Naruto asked rubbing his hands up and down Sasuke's back. Sasuke smirked and nodded.
"Seriously," Sakura continued, "I hope nothing bad ever happens in this village. You two will be the last to know."
That was completely untrue. Naruto's sage abilities let him know everything going on in and around Konoha. He had actually known Lee and Sakura were on their way, the first guests to the party, but hadn't expected the pair to just waltz into his office.
"You need to shut the door from now on," he said around the earlobe between his teeth.
"Well, then you need to quit yanking me in here by my obi. When was I supposed to shut it?" Then Sasuke added, "I agree this is a problem and I think the solution is to just move my post to right here on your lap."
Naruto grinned. "Can we make this your official uniform, too?" he asked pulling the gi top wide, looking at the body beneath.
"Naruto!" Sakura persisted. "The babies are right there."
Naruto shrugged. "They're two weeks old."
"Mine's older," Sasuke sniffed.
Naruto grinned. "Mine has more chakra."
Sasuke opened then closed his mouth, this round clearly going to Naruto.
"Your party starts in five minutes. You need to get up and get dressed," Sakura snapped. She grabbed Lee by the sleeve pulling him toward the door and added in an ominous tone, "Five minutes!"
Sakura was really getting annoyed standing in the hallway outside Naruto's office. It was well over five minutes and she was just about ready to…. Her thoughts were derailed when she heard Naruto's voice from the other side of the door, "Ah, ah. Harder, Sasuke. Harder!"
Growling, she shoved the door open, only to find Naruto and Sasuke, each completely dressed and holding a baby. Naruto was snickering.
"You're more trouble than you're worth," she sniffed, gently ebony colored hair on the tiny scalp in Naruto's arms.
"Naw," Naruto grinned. "You know you love us."
She put her hand on his cheek. "You're lucky that's true."
He covered her hand with his own and his smile gentled. "Yeah, I am."
Later, after everyone had left, Naruto knelt by the two babies, wrapping them up for the trip home. Sasuke scooted behind him and wrapped his arms around the broad torso.
"I think this time I want to try for two surrogates. I'm not rebuilding this clan one Uchiha at a time." He rested his chin on Naruto's shoulder. "You'll need another one, too. Think we can handle three babies at a time?"
Naruto looked at Sasuke out of the corner of his eye. "These two will be walking."
Sasuke lifted his head and tossed his hair. "Mine will be running."
"Mine'll still have more chakra."
Sasuke snapped his teeth together, this round also clearly going to Naruto. As he tried to think of a retort, Naruto said, "We'll need help."
"And we'll have it." He nuzzled Naruto's cheek and reached out to touch a tiny foot. "This village adores you. A half a dozen fist fights nearly broke out tonight as everyone fought over holding the babies."
Naruto snickered. "Uncle Kakashi…"
Sasuke laughed knowing the incident to which Naruto referred. Not long before the party was over, Kakashi navigated the room retrieving both babies, plucking them right out of the arms of his disgruntled, sputtering peers. Then he sat in the rocker that Tsunade had brought as a gift and informed everyone that he would be rocking them to sleep.
No one in the room was quite man enough to challenge this, although Sasuke could tell that Iruka was close.
Naruto looked up at the painting on the wall of his father and smiled in pure contentment. He, too, stroked a tiny foot near his knee. By having the babies, he was making a contract with the future, however long that was. He was agreeing to savor his precious people and cherish each new dawn.
