*~*~*~*

 

Poking at one ear just to watch it twitch, Sasuke snickered as Naruto batted at him, glaring at his friend.

 

“Stop that, would you?” he groused, letting Ibiki pull him close and nuzzle into his hair. “So, we’re really gonna be able to finally talk with her?” he asked his lover, tilting his head up to gaze at the large man.

 

“Yes, you’ll be able to talk with her. We have all of the needed information that she had and she’s fully healed now,” Ibiki said, pressing a kiss to his head.

 

“It’s been a long time coming,” Sasuke drawled as he shifted. “Mi-chan is cooking up a storm for tomorrows dinner by the way. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much in our refrigerators,” he told the couple, talking about the engagement part for the two.

 

“She’s sweet for throwing the part, especially with only a few weeks of notice, on top of your own engagement party and wedding,” Naruto said softly, getting a fond ‘you idiot’ look from Sasuke

 

“She damn near has our wedding completely planned and set up already,” Sasuke drawled, shrugging with a smile. “It gives her something to do when she’s not working.”

 

“That reminds me, when is her surgery supposed to happen?” Naruto asked.

 

“As soon as we get back from our honeymoon,” Sasuke replied, the three of them turning to Ibikis office door as Deer opened the door, standing there with a bored stance.

 

“She’s in the interrogation room waiting for you guys,” he told them before leaving, the door closing slowly behind him. Naruto looked at Ibiki and Sasuke before standing up from the couch, pulling his fiancé up with him.

 

“Come on, let’s do this,” Sasuke huffed, hauling himself off of his chair, shoving his hands into his pockets. Naruto eyed him with a smile dancing on his lips.

 

“What, trying to mimic Shikamaru and his laziness?” he asked, hooking his arm through Ibikis as they left.

 

“Funny, really,” Sasuke drawled back, lip curling. “You two better be on time for your own engagement dinner. If I have to drag you there, I will.”

 

“We’ll be there, Sasuke-san, no worries. I won’t even let my dear fiancé distract me from what I need to do,” Ibiki promised, Naruto blinking innocently up at him. “Don’t give me that look. You like to tease me all the time, so no innocent look.”

 

“Not my fault you look delightful interrogating all of those ROOT nins,” Naruto cooed, Ibikis arm wrapping around his waist and squeezing him.

 

“Behave,” Ibiki growled, Sasuke gagging next to them as they made their way to the room. Naruto reached over and swiped at his friend, unsurprised when he dodged out of the way.

”Shut up. I don’t complain when you get kissy faced with your fiancé,” he said, sticking his tongue out at his friend.

 

“That’s because you never see me get kissy faced with her,” came the retort.

 

“You get…fluffy, as much as it pains me to say it,” Ibiki said, the two younger men looking at him with some surprise. “I can say the word fluffy if the occasion calls for it,” he stated.

 

“The first time I heard him say fuffy, cuddle and puppy was the first time I locked myself in my room and drank myself unconscious,” Itachi said, leaning against the wall next to the interrogation room door. He was dressed as a regular nin, arms crossed, hair pulled back and looking smug about something.

 

“You got laid. Again,” Sasuke snorted, making his brother smirk and push away from the wall. “Next time you plan on getting happy, can you please send a note so my soon to be wife can make sure your dinner is put away so you can eat it the next day?” he asked as he, Naruto and Itachi stepped into the room, Sakura looking up from the table she was chained to.

 

“Sasuke-kun,” she breathed, eyes wide as Sasuke and Naruto sat down before her. Ibiki closed the door behind them, leaving Itachi to lean against a wall, arms crossing once more. “I wasn’t expecting to see you again,” Sakura said, smoothing her hair down. The pink locks were longer than they had been at one time; pulled back by a hair tie, exposing the chakra binding neck cuff she had to wear outside of her cell.

 

“We decided to come by and update you on what has been going on since you were brought in” Sasuke drawled, sitting back in his chair.

 

“You see, my ears are permanent, no thanks to you, but luckily, not genetic,” Naruto told her, leaning forward on the table. Green eyes looked at him, glaring as he smiled sweetly at her. “Apparently my ears and tail are so cute that I have a long list of surrogates that are willing to give me and Ibiki babies. Tsunade is also really close to figuring out how to combine our genetics so we can have babies that are both of ours.”

 

“Freak,” Sakura snarled before cringing when Itachi shifted against the wall.

 

“Not really actually. Neji-kun, Iruka-san and Kakashi-sensi are looking forward to the jump so that they can have lots of children themselves,” Sasuke said.

 

“What?” Sakura asked.

 

“Yeah, lots of same sex couples want children that are theirs,” Sasuke mused, shrugging one should. “Ah, we should tell her about Danzo and what happened to the ROOT bases,” he said, looking to Naruto, who smiled brightly.

 

“We should,” Naruto said, the two sharing smug smiles.

 

“What about Danzo and ROOT?” Sakura asked, cocking an eyebrow as her eyes narrowed at them, darting back and forth between the two friends.

 

“Oh, he’s dead. His body is in the morgue, autopsied and waiting to be cremated before being used as fertilizer,” Naruto cooed at the pink haired woman.

 

“How?” she hissed, leaning forward, her chains rattling. Naruto idly mused that her glare looked mildly constipated, making him snicker quietly.

 

“From what we were told: death by rubble aided by one of his new recruits,” Sasuke replied, somehow keeping his voice even as he looked to Itachi who just gave him a vaguely interested look.

 

“I don’t believe you,” Sakura growled, the two friends shrugging with smiles on their faces.

 

“Don’t. We have no reason to lie to you,” Sasuke told her, looking to his friend. “You wanna tell her about our news?” he asked.

 

“Sure, why not?” Naruto chirped, playing with a ring on his left ring finger, the band a simple white gold. “I know it’s dangerous to wear a ring, but Ibiki had it done with special runes to hide on my missions. My bond ring will connect with this one. Sasuke bought one for his fiancé to.”

 

“She loves it to. Of course, Naruto is getting bonded before I get married, the pain,” Sasuke snorted, getting a smug look from his friend. “But it gives Mi-chan the chance to do something beyond plot our wedding and honeymoon.”

 

“Let me tell ya, I’m beyond happy to have Mi-chan doing this for me and ‘Biki,” Naruto chuckled. Looking to Sakura, he had to laugh at her face. She looked almost as if she had swallowed a lemon, her lips puckered and eyes wide.

 

“I’ll tell her when I go home again,” Sasuke promised.

 

“So, wanna tell her what she’s going to be doing for the rest of her life?” Naruto asked.

 

“What about me?” Sakura asked, her face becoming nervous as her hands clenched the chairs around her wrists.

 

“Well,” Sasuke purred, “you won’t be seeing the outside of a cell for a very long time, if ever.” Standing up, Naruto and Sasuke snickered as they left the room and her as she gaped after them.
