SasuSaku month day 23: Something borrowed

Title: A stitch on my heart // Summary: Sasuke and Sakura borrow Fugaku and Mikoto’s wedding clothing for their own ceremony.But Sasuke made sure to give his wife a new ring. // Rating: T

A/N: didn’t wanna mention any specific article of clothing bc 1. Too lazy to research 2. Narutoverse was changing a lot after the war so who knows what they really wore. In boruto they’ll prob wear sneakers or something smh Lmfao actually if you watch say yes to the dress im hearing all the consultants voices saying “she wants the pnina! Get her the pnina!” those short and see through dresses wouldn’t be my first choice, but sakura could wear anything and i’d support her

When Sasuke was ready to propose, he made sure he had the perfect ring for Sakura: a platinum band, fit perfectly to her finger, set with a dazzling ruby. Marriage was an important step for him; he knew Sakura would always be by his side, but it was the official start of a new family. The Uchiha clan was going to be doubled with the inclusion of Sakura.

Sasuke was raised quite traditionally, and despite Sakura’s claims that they didn’t need a ceremony, he wanted to have one anyway. The formality made it feel more real; the rituals helped ground him. He could hardly believe he was lucky enough to marry Sakura, and he needed something to hold on to. Besides, she would look particularly beautiful in her wedding outfit. There was no reason not to have the ceremony.

Sakura ran her hand over the smooth garment, admiring the way the Uchiha crest stood out proudly against the dark fabric. It was something she had seen on Sasuke’s back when chasing after him for so many years, her girlhood dreams of wearing the same symbol were coming true. The weight of the Uchiha name and crest was not lost on her. Sakura smiled weakly, “I’m sorry Mikoto-san, I’m going to have to borrow this for a while.”

Sasuke shook his head in frustration, “Sakura. You are an Uchiha. You might be borrowing the outfit, but the name, the legacy, the values, the clan, you are part of it all and it belongs to you too.” The Uchihas were proud people who loved fiercely—Sakura fit right in. Sakura blushed. She was perfectly satisfied with having grown up a Haruno, but she was excited to go through the rest of life with a forever partner and a new clan name.  

He admitted it felt a bit strange to wear his father’s old clothes, but the fan resting on his back gave him that sense of ownership over the clan. The Uchihas were always all about family and love, things to be shared, not kept hidden.

Sakura thought that besides the clothing, she could borrow a few things out of Mikoto’s book. From Sasuke’s stories, she learned what a strong, graceful, loving mother and wife she had been. She would’ve gotten along well with her, that was a fact. Sasuke insisted Fugaku would probably have ended up having a soft spot for Sakura. As the former baby of the clan, he knew what it looked like when Uchihas had a soft spot.

When Sakura became pregnant, it was the first time someone besides Sasuke had sewn the Uchiha fan in a long time. As he watched his wife thread the needle through an impossibly small onesie, ruby ring glinting in the light, Sasuke thought the entire clan would have had a terrible weakness for his future child. The current clan was certainly going to be no match for a new baby.

Departure

My Sasusaku Month contribution for the prompt : Departures.

I'm sorry for the mistakes, English is not my mother tongue. I hope you like it.

Night was falling on the streets of Konoha and a light breeze cooled the hot summer day that had just ended. Sasuke walked Sakura home after having dinner at Ichiraku with Team 7. It was a tradition, Sakura had told him the first time Sasuke had attended at one of these dinner. Once a week, Team 7 met at Ichiraku's. Even if time had passed and they had all changed, Sasuke could not help thinking about the moments they had spent at Ichiraku, when they were still genins.

He looked at Sakura who was smiling. He had tried to talk to her all day, but did not know how to tell her the news. It had been several days since he had decided that it was time for him to leave. He still had so much to discover, but he did not want to be alone anymore. He wanted to ask Sakura to come with him. He did not want to spend a moment away from her anymore, but he did not know if she would agree to follow him. She had asked him several times to go with him, but he was not ready. They were only children and his revenge obsessed him. He did not want to drag her with him into the darkness. Then he had to know who he really was and redeem himself. For that, he had to be alone. But this time, things were different and simpler. He was finally ready. But would Sakura still want to follow him ? She had a passion for her job, she was important for the people of Konoha. Her family, her friends, all the people she loved were here. Sasuke stopped walking. Sakura turned toward him, surprised.

‘Sasuke-kun, is there something wrong ?’

It was now or never, Sasuke thought.

‘I have to tell you something.’

Sakura nodded, encouraging him to continue.

‘I have thought a lot about it and it is time for me to continue my journey.’

‘If that's what you want, then you should do it.’

Sakura smiled, but there was something wrong. She tried not to show her sadness. Sasuke was angry at himself, he had not made himself clear and he had hurt her once again.

‘Do you want to come with me ?’

Sakura opened her eyes wide, not expecting such a request. She did not answer, wondering if she had heard correctly. Sasuke waited for her answer apprehensively. Maybe she will refuse. He was reassured when he saw a huge smile light up Sakura's face.

‘Yes, I want to come with you.’

Sasuke came up to her and kissed her. All he wanted to do was to travel all over the world with her.

******

A few days later, Sasuke and Sakura were on the edge of Konoha. Naruto and Kakashi were here to say goodbye, while Sai and Ino had just arrived. Ino took Sakura in her arms and refused to let her go. From where he was, Sasuke could hear Ino say to Sakura :

‘Are you really sure that's what you want ? You will not come back for a long time.’

‘That's what I want,’ Sakura answered.

Ino finally let Sakura go and came up to Sasuke with a determined step.

‘You’d be well advised to look after her, or else you'll have me to contend with !’

‘Ino, stop it !’ Sakura snapped.

Sasuke nodded. He wanted to smile. He never thought that one day Ino would have the courage to speak to him like that. Despite their rivalry, Ino was Sakura's best friend and although he was much stronger than her, she was ready to do anything to protect her friend. After a last goodbye, Sasuke and Sakura left the village. Sasuke looked at Sakura and he was sure he had made the best decision of his life.

The end
