Chapter Text

“Oi! Watch it!” 

 

“You watch it, I’m gonna drop these chairs!” 

 

“Careful! Coming through!” 

 

“Boruto, control your clones! They’re totally going off the plan” Shikadai shouted 

 

Boruto looked up from where he had placed the final centerpiece “Clones, behave!” 

 

“Gee, thanks” Shikadai grumbled 

 

“How are the decorations?” Boruto asked 

 

“Totally a drag...but they’re done” Shikadai reported 

 

“Sounds good!” 

 

“Deliveryyyyyy” Inojin’s voice rang in the venue 

 

“Oh good the flowers!” Boruto said 

 

“You better appreciate these, bringing them from my mom’s shop was a pain. I don’t know why she gave me so much” Inojin huffed 

 

“They’re perfect! Hey sis!” Boruto called out 

 

Both sisters emerged from where they were currently finishing up the rest of the tables and cutlery. Himawari gasped in awe when she saw the luscious flowers. 

 

“These are beautiful!” 

 

“They’re just what we needed to tie the whole room together,” Sarada said as she took the flowers from the poor boy “Come on Hima and Inojin, we’ll spread them out and place some on the tables” 

 

Himawari nodded eagerly, already running off to place the flowers. Inojin groaned. 

 

“Can I at least get a break?”



“Nope!” Boruto said as he pushed Inojin forward 

 

“I have arrived!” ChoCho announced herself “I've brought the most important thing!” 

 

“Ah, I’ve been waiting for you. We have just the tables ready to set out the food” Mitsuki said as he stepped forward 

 

“It’s all right here. Tomato-based-dishes to ramen from Ichiraku’s” ChoCho said as she pushed the cart by the tables. 

 

“Need any help?” Boruto offered 

 

“Not at all, you stay here and continue watching over things,” Mitsuki waved off, joining the girl. 

 

Boruto merely gave a small smile, nodding at the two who began to place the food out. 

 

“Hold on, the food isn’t done yet. I brought the cake!” Sakura now joined the group 

 

“Careful Sakura-chan, we worked so hard on it!” Hinata urged the pink-haired woman 

 

“Relax Hinata, I won’t drop it,” Sakura said, dangerously swinging the cake. Hinata yelped. 

 

“Mom! Aunty Sakura! The cake looks amazing!” Boruto said as he ran up to them 

 

“Hello son, how have things been?” Hinata asked 

 

Boruto looked around the room, chaos wasn’t even the right word.

 

Everything was hectic. 

 

Today was the day of Naruto and Sasuke's surprise engagement party. Boruto had thought this would be a great idea to celebrate the marriage of his fathers. His siblings and everyone in the village loved the idea and supported him as the leader of all the planning for this event. Even though it was a surprise, that proved to be the main challenge.

 

How he was able to sneak this past his parents proved to be a much more difficult task. Even though they were always in the village doing their work, they still poked around him and his siblings. They had almost slipped up as they were becoming too distant (they simply didn’t want to ruin the surprise). Causing Naruto and Sasuke to refuse to leave their side for a good week. When he was finally gifted the perfect opportunity when they would be out of the village, Boruto wasted no time on getting to work in planning this party.

 

Everyone was eagerly waiting for the two most powerful ninjas to finally be together. All his aunts and uncles were more than happy to lend a helping hand, as well as his teammates. Even though Boruto appreciated the support, it proved to be overwhelming, everyone was in the venue helping him fix things and making sure everything was ready for the surprise. Having the family all together like this always meant something was bound to go wrong. Mitski had almost fallen off a ladder trying to hang up some streamers. His clones kept disappearing as they bumped into each other and drop things. Even Kakashi and Iruka were stirring up their own trouble as they kept arguing over where certain silverware was to be placed on the tables.

 

But Boruto couldn’t be happier, he was ready to see his fathers finally standing at the altar and vowing to be together forever. This is why he was so passionate about this party and despite the chaos, it was good to see everyone being just as excited to see Naruto and Sasuke’s love bloom. 

 

“Things have been good” Boruto smiled at his mother “Things are almost ready, they should be arriving soon” 

 

“Oh right! Come on Hinata let’s go place this down and get into our places” Sakura urged, balancing the cake on one hand and pulling Hinata by the other

 

As the women went away, a sudden burst of footsteps filled the air. Boruto turned and his eyes grew wide, greeted by a large crowd.  

 

“Bought the famous 12” Kiba smirked at the boy 

 


“Aunts, and Uncles, so glad you guys are all here! ” Boruto greeted  

 

“We aren’t too late are we? Ino over here thought we needed more flowers” Shikamaru threw a side-eye at Ino 

 

“Shut it” Ino growled 

 

 “Nope! They should be here any minute!” Boruto gestured for the 12 to enter the venue, each of them excitedly chatting. 

 

“Alright Boruto, everything is all set” Mitsuki stated 

 

“Nice! Now we just wait. Everyone get to their hiding places, I feel their chakra” Boruto instructed 

 

Chakra sensing training really was starting to pay off…

 

Orochimaru cut off the lights “How exciting, our precious grandchildren are to wed. Time really flies doesn’t it, my dear Tsunade?” 

 

Tsunade pushed the man’s head under the table, hiding under there herself  “Don’t remind me…” 

 

A quiet moment passed, everyone tucked in their places and hid their chakras so no one would sense them. Soon, the doors slammed open so hard the place shook.

 

“Where is the enemy Kawaki?” Sasuke’s cold voice rang 

 

“RASENGA-” 

 

“WAIT! DAD NO, STOP!” Boruto yelled, coming out from his hiding before his father could blow up the place.

 

“Son?” Sasuke and Naruto voices called out in unison 

 

“SURPRISE!” The lights turned on, revealing the party and guests that had gathered around.

 

“What’s going on?” Naruto blinked 

 

“This party is for you! To celebrate your engagement” Boruto exclaimed 

 

“...but Kawaki said there was an enemy attack here” Sasuke now said dumbfounded 

 

Boruto threw an angry look at his brother “Kawaki? What the hell?” 

 

“What? You said to bring them here in a way they wouldn't suspect anything” Kawaki crossed his arms “So I did just that” 

 

“Yeah, but I didn’t think you’d bring them here ready to fight” Boruto pinched the bridge of his nose “Anyways...Congratulations fathers!” 

 

The two men relaxed from their battle stance, they looked at their son with huge smiles.  

 

Everyone gushed at the interaction, adoring the happy Uzumaki and Uchiha family and celebrating their love. 

 

Iruka blew his nose into a napkin as he cried “MY BABIES! LOOK AT THEM SO HAPPY” 

 

“Enough with the tears Iruka” Kakashi patted his husband “Come on everyone, let’s celebrate!” 

 

The crowd cheered, more than ready to get the party started. 

 

“Boruto, did you do all this for us?” Naruto asked 

 

“Well…” Boruto blushed “I had help from everyone else” 

 

“Quit the humble act. It was all his idea Dads” Kawaki, enjoying how flustered Boruto looked in front of everyone. 

 

“Son, thank you. And thank you to everyone” Naruto hugged his son

 

“You too kids,” Sasuke said as he brought Kawaki in for a hug “We love you so much” 

 

“Dad, not in front of every-OOF” Kakwai was cut off as his sisters, brother and other father all joined in for a hug 

 

“I couldn’t have asked for a better family” Naruto sighed happily



*************

 

 

Shikamaru sighed, stepping onto the stage, leaving every ounce of his dignity off the stage. 

 

He grabbed the mic, clearing his throat as he looked out into the huge crowd of guests.

 

“Uh...hello everyone. Thank you for coming to Sasuke and Naruto’s wedding. Once again, congratulations to the happy couple” 

 

Naruto and Sasuke raised their glasses from their table, they were excited at what was to come.

 

“...So, you’re probably wondering what I’m doing up here” 

 

“AH YES! TIME FOR TOAST” Lee shouted drunkenly

 

“No not the toast- Lee sit down!” Shikamaru told the bowl cut man “I’m here to…man what a drag…” 

 

“Go on Shikamaru” Tsunade smirked, counting her newly won money

 

Kakashi held up the video recorder, ready to capture this lovely performance. 

 

Shikamaru gave an embarrassed sigh “I’m going to sing a song for Naruto and Sasuke” 

 

The crowd erupted into cheers and whistles. 

 

Shikadai buried his face into his hands “This is so embarrassing” 

 

“Oh my god, this is the funniest thing ever” Kawaki snickered

 

“I can’t believe he has to do this” Boruto laughed 

 

“Guys! Give him a chance, it won’t be that bad” Sarada said 

 

“Uh...sure, sure it won’t” Himawari tried to say hopefully 

 

“This is the best wedding gift ever,” Naruto said as he kissed the side of Sasuke’s head 

 

“Dinner and a show? How lovely” Sasuke mused  “We’re never going to let him live this down” 

 

“Absolutely not” 

 

Temari played the music, more than happy to betray her own husband. 

 

Shikamaru took a deep breath, why did he ever agree to this stupid bet? Who would have ever thought these two idiots would actually get married? He stepped to the mic: 

 

“WHAT IS LOVE? BABY DON’T HURT ME” 

 

The crowd exploded with cheers, Naruto and Sasuke almost falling off their chairs in laughter. 

 

“A wager well-won” Kakashi smiled

 

“You’re telling me. They don’t call me the gambling queen for nothing” Tsunade laughed 




*HALLOWEEN SPECIAL* 

 

Naruto walked up to his house, the Uchiha compound was particularly chilling that night. The cool wind blew loudly around him, an owl cooed in the distance, and the clouds blocked the moonlight. Nothing but darkness surrounded him. 

 

No one was home, the chakra of his family was gone. It was quiet...too quiet. 

 

He reached out to open the door, yet was stunned to find that it was already unlocked. The door squeaked creepily as it opened. He gulped as he walked inside, the wooden floor creaking with every step that he took. 

 

The house was pitch black, Naruto could barely see if it wasn’t for the small rays of muted moonlight that flooded into the house. 

 

“H-Hello?” Naruto called out into the empty space

 

He was met with pure silence. Naruto would admit, he was never one for the darkness or scary situations. 

 

He heard scattered footsteps, he snapped his head up. 

 

“I-Is anyone there?” Naruto said nervously 

 

Naruto had always had his suspicions that Sasuke’s house was haunted, yet his husband always called him crazy. He knew he was right, there had to be a ghost here! 

 

...and Naruto did not like ghosts one bit, especially on Halloween night. 

 

Something dropped inside their house, Naruto yelped. 

 

“W-who’s there? Is it a g-g-ghost?” Naruto stuttered 

 

The house went silent, Naruto moved to turn on the lights. 

 

“BOO!” 

 

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” 

 

Naruto screamed bloody murder as he fell to the ground. He was met with 5 white figures…who were laughing? 

 

Boruto took off the sheet over him, laughing as he rubbed his ear “HAHA! TOTALLY WORTH THE HEARING LOSS HAHAHA” 

 

“I CAN’T HAHAHA I CANT BREATHE” Sarada said, holding her stomach as she laughed from under the sheet. 

 

“We got him good, Dad!” Himawari giggled as she came from under her own sheet 

 

“BAHAHAHAHAHA, DAD THIS WAS THE BEST PRANK EVER” Kawaki laughed as he gave Sasuke a high five 

 

“I knew this would get him” Sasuke revealed himself from the draped sheet 

 

He bent down to a white Naruto, who was currently holding his rapidly beating heart from such a fright. Sasuke smiled sweetly at him.

 

“Happy Halloween!” 

 

“You fucking bastard” Naruto gritted

 

“Aw come on dear, it was only a joke,” Sasuke said innocently, yet his evil smirk betrayed him 

 

“You know I’m terrified of ghosts” Naruto snapped 

 

“Yes, believe me I know. Which is why we had to pull this prank on you!” Boruto defended his father 

 

“Don’t be too upset daddy, we’re just having fun!” Himawari said as she came down to hug her dad on the floor 

 

Naruto couldn’t resist the smile, he hugged his youngest “Alright, ya got me good” 

 

“Damn right we did” Kawaki smiled

 

“What better way to celebrate Halloween?’ Sasuke said, Himawari now jumping into his arm for him to carry her 

 

“I thought we were going trick or treating,” Naruto said as he finally got up “Not almost giving me a heart attack” 

 

“We are father! We’re already dressed in our costumes!” Sarada said, she showed her dad her costume “Look I’m a vampire! Totally cute right?” 

 

“Put a cloak on, I don’t want any boys looking at you” Naruto crossed his arms 

 

“But dad-” 

 

“No buts!” 

 

Sarada grumbled as she grabbed her cloak that had the combined Uchiha and Uzumaki clan symbol on it. 

 

“There, now you look cute!” Naruto nodded approvingly 

 

“You can barely see it-” 

 

“I’m Dad!” Boruto said as he cut off his sister. He proudly adorned Sasuke’s famous blue shirt and white shorts that he would wear when he was Boruto’s age. The arm warmers present on his arm as well. 

 

Naruto chuckled at his son, reaching down to touch the Uchiha clan that was on the back of his shirt. He smiled when he saw Boruto also had on Sasuke’s old headband that he held on to for all these years.

 

“You look just like him. But why didn’t you dress like me, you’re costume would have been perfect” Naruto asked 

 

“Uh well…” Boruto said, not wanting to hurt his dad's feelings after giving him such a scare 

 

“Because I’m the better shinobi” Sasuke answered “Obviously” 

 

Naruto playfully rolled his eyes and scoffed. 

 

“Don’t worry daddy, look at my costume” Himawari waved her arms for Sasuke to place her down 

 

Himawari spun around, she was dressed as an adorable fox “I’m Kurama” 

 

“...I love it. Such honorable attire. Finally, someone who understands how amazing I am” Kurama said from inside their domain 

 

“It’s very cute Himawari. Kuruma loves it just as much as I do” Naruto smiled “What about you son?” 

 

“I’m a skeleton,” Kawaki said casually, although his face and parts of his body were painted intricately painted to look just like a skeleton “Dad, did the makeup. Pretty cool” 

 

“Sheesh Sas’, you went all out this Halloween huh?” Naruto looked over 

 

“What can I say? I love Halloween” Sasuke shrugged 

 

“More than me?” 

 

“Absolutely” 

 

The children laughed, the Halloween excitement front their father reaching them too. 

 

“Alright, alright. Let’s get a move on, and remember...Your father and I get 50% of the candy you guys get!” 

 

The Uzumaki and Uchiha children made their way out the door, ready for a night of tricks and treats.
