This is the 2nd to last and final chapter!

Anyway

Hinode General Hospital

Hinata

I looked at the man; he didn't look like he was backing down.

I turned my attention to the woman in the park bench across from him; she wasn't going down without a fight.

"S-so you called me in," I crossed my arms, eyebrows raised. "On my Sunday-off morning after a week-volunteer trip...to help you guys choose where you want to have your wedding which, s-should I mention, a week away!"

Kazuki and Minako.

The fated couple.

They are meant for each other alright.

But then why am I dragged into this?

Kazuki got up from his seat, "We had a spot but she changed her mind all of a sudden, Senpai!"

The original location was supposed to be in this amazing, beautiful park in Okinawa. I heard from the director that had some family that live there so he wanted to book the place for them to come out without having to fly all the way to the main country of Japan. Mina agreed because she has never been to Okinawa and wanted to have their honeymoon there as well.

"I want it to be moved though, sweetie," she said.

"But we already have everything planned!"

"We could just un-plan it, right?"

"No baby," Kazuki sighed, heavily running his hand through his now brown hair. "We can't just move the location with only one week left!"

"Okay! Okay! Senpai speaking!" If I don't say anything right now, this can go on and on for maybe the rest of the day. 

I have my own family I have to get home to. I don't exactly trust Naruto with our sons quite yet considering he's been underground for a few months and probably isolated when staying with Tyro in his house.

Me suddenly speaking up caught both my juniors' attention.

"What did your wedding planner have to say about moving the date all of a sudden?" I looked at each of them.

Mina spoke first, "She said it would probably mess up the guest's schedule but she can make it possible if we really wanted it."

"My uncles already asked their company for that weekend off," Kazuki cut in, stuffing his hands in his lab pockets. "And my mom doesn't like airplanes."

"I just wanted to move the wedding to someplace..." Mina looked up at her fiancee, "A little more meaningful to both of us than some random place in Okinawa."

"Meaningful how?" the man blinked.

I was only surprised that Minako knew what the meaning of meaningful was in the first place. It's true that before she'd just be okay if they held their wedding at some random place but with her suddenly wanting to change the location to someplace meaningful?!

Wow...Naruto comes back from being dead for a whole year and Mina figures out that she wants to make her wedding special.

I don't remember hitting my head at all, though.

"Eskon," she nodded once, looking off somewhere else.

Kazuki uncrossed his arms just as we both exclaimed, "Eh?!"

The emotionless doctor barely flinched at our sudden loudness.

I'm gonna admit that I do miss our life in Eskon but it was never in my best interest to ever go back there at all. Especially since now my boyfriend and I share the same roof, bedroom and bathroom warmly in Tokyo.

Soft snowflakes started falling around us but they were doing their silent job so well. I didn't notice them until I witnessed a small puff of air escape Mina's mouth. That was until she whipped away immediately, away from both our eyesight.

"I know I've never been one to really care about these kind of stuff," her voice just cracked? Is Minako Soga, the emotionless nothing-breaks-her-will, actually crying?!

Kazuki looked at me, his face telling me he was probably thinking the same things. 

Then it's the clueless Kazuki Yasuda that has no idea what to do in situations like these!

I made some gestures to hug her, comfort her which he caught right away. The man quickly went over to her; dropping to his knees so he was leveled with her face.

"Hey, what's wrong, baby?" the smile he gave her along with the way he reached up and gently wiped those foreign tears melted my heart completely. It took every single one of my mature willpower not to jump and squeal at how cute they are.

Mina reached up grabbing Kazuki's hand which was caressing her cheek, "Eskon to me is one of the most special places."

"I want to know why Eskon is so important to you so I can make sure it becomes just as important to me," the way the man asked those words... dammit if I don't somehow flop around like a dolphin on land I'm gonna burst.

She sighed, "It's the place where the moments we spent together...they just became so precious to me."

"Meaning..." sir, you are one clueless man!

"It means," Mina giggled, (she flipping giggled?!) before reaching out and cupping his confused face, "It's where I realized that I had fallen deeply in love with you, Kazuki."

The smile on his face...

"Then Eskon it is."

I hate being a hopeless romantic so much. Because if I don't leave right at this second, they're going to lose so much respect for me. 

My work here is done anyway.

And it's the best time since they won't notice me if I just slipped -

I burst into a sprint until I was safely behind the glass doors of the hospital. I really, really want to shriek right now.

But I have to come to work tomorrow so that's not gonna happen.

A few blocks outside Konoha University

Naruto

We're here!

Painful two hour drive over!

I turned to my partner-in-crime, "Get up, jerk we're here."

Sasuke barely twitched with annoyance.

Which made me twitched with annoyance.

"We're here! Get up, asshole! I know you're faking!" I snapped.

"Alright!" he snapped back. "I don't understand why you just dropped your kids off with Sakura than drag me back to our college this early in the morning anyway?"

"Aww and here I thought you missed me," I smirked, remembering the story Hinata told me the day the former deputy came to tell her that I was gone. "Hinata told me that when you went to tell her about me you cried and cried and cried -"

He suddenly glared at me, "I was exaggerating because she looked lonely, okay?"

"Suuure," I unclipped my seat belt and got out. 

I walked a few steps before Sasuke's own boots hit the cement as we rounded the corner to a very familiar little store.

"Why didn't you just come here with Hinata, idiot?" Sasuke asked as I opened the door for him. 

"Because she got called into the hospital earlier," I sighed. 

The door barely closed behind me when a loud booming voice caught both of us by surprise.

"Naruto Uzumaki, is that you boy?!" 

I grinned brightly at the old man sitting behind the counter of thousands and thousands of jewelry everywhere.

"The one and only! It's good to see that you're still alive, Old Man!"

He got up, leaning over the glass, "Come back here for another bracelet for another lady did you?"

"Wrong," I laughed, bouncing over to him. "I'm actually looking for something else for the same lady I got the bracelet for."

The Old Man I never learned the name of looked rather shock, "Still with her even after all these years? Damn you are one committed man, son. You'll have to tell me your love story sometime."

"It's quite long sir."

"Ahh, I got all the time in the world," he smiled. "So! What are you looking for her?"

"Something small," I blushed as I spoke. "M-maybe a size six for a woman's finger?"

Old Man nodded, "Well our ring sel -"

He stopped, his finger half raised pointing at something between the floor and maybe the top of the glass cases.

I closed my eye, bracing for a sudden shout coming from him for my little plans.

 Sasuke was the one that completely lost it. His face was in this little awkward shape where he was confused, shock and then a tractor ran over his toe. He opened his mouth as the words came out, earth shattering might I add.

"OUI YOU'RE GONNA PROPOSE TO HINATA?!!!"
