Yep. I have changed Ayumi's hair colour. She is now a redhead instead of a raven! Yay! This came to mind so randomly, I dunno, I just wanted to write a cute little family fic hehe~

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto-verse or its characters, they belong to Kishi-sama! I own Ayumi! :D

Sasuke had been doing the washing up in the kitchen, and as he walked out, Naruto came up in front of him, holding a sleeping Ayumi in his arms, her arms were wrapped around his neck, and he held her bridal style, her head resting against his shoulder with her eyes closed, sleeping soundly.

Sasuke could not help but smile, "Did she fall asleep at the table?" he asked, reaching a hand out to stroke her head.

Naruto smiled in return, "Yeah, this girl works too hard, I went to the bathroom, only to walk back in and find her slumped on the table, her pen still in hand, and she got some ink on her cheek though," he chuckled quietly, "She reminds me of you in that respect," he commented, as he turned, walking down the hall to Ayumi's room.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow, "Oh?" he asked, following after the blonde.

"Yeah, you know, always on top of everything work-wise, not slacking off, and she had always been able to pick up jutsu quickly too, always top of the class, or actually always competing for the top with Kaien," he chuckled at the memory, "And pretty much a perfect student, that's hardly changed since she was at the academy, in fact it's even intensified now that she's become a jounin," he explained in hushed tones, not wanting to wake the sleeping daughter in his arms, she deserved a good night's sleep.

Naruto stopped outside Ayumi's room, "Could you get the door?" he asked the raven.

Sasuke complied, mulling over what Naruto had just said, "I guess you're right," he said following Naruto into the room.

Sasuke pulled back the sheets, and Naruto placed her small body down onto the bed, he took off her shoes, and her head band, and unclipped her identical blue pins from her hair, placing them on her night stand next to the black fabric head band.

He pulled her duvet over her, tucking her in, Sasuke watched from the wall beside the door, smiling as Naruto carried out the night time routine they had not done since Ayumi was around ten years old. She had grown up so fast, she was fifteen already, and her sixteenth was coming up fast, and a jounin to boot. She had already discussed with Naruto about an ANBU Black Ops position, since he was the Hokage.

Naruto stood beside her bed, watching her peaceful face, a small smile on his lips, Sasuke walked up beside him, and felt a toned arm find its way around his waist, and he leaned into the blonde's radiating heat.

The moonlight filtering through the curtains shone their daughters beautiful features.

"You know, I was so, so happy to find that Ayumi had my kaa-chan's hair, it's so beautiful, she has the exact same shade and everything," Sasuke smiled as he listened to Naruto's whispering voice.

He felt Naruto chuckle against him, "I remember when I saw her that time, as soon as I realised she was my kaa-chan, I got so jealous of her beautiful hair, complaining that I should have inherited that instead of tou-chan's blonde hair, I thought I would have looked great with it… It was funny, I mean, she even said there were only two men in her life that ever said they loved her red hair, and she loved them both unconditionally… It was tou-chan and me," he paused for a moment, and took a deep breath, he had told Sasuke of how he had met his parents when he needed them, but he had never actually told him anything of the experiences in detail, and he listened intently, "It's just, when I saw Ayumi's red hair for the first time, I mean, you honestly have no idea, it-it just made me think, that even th-though kaa-chan is no longer... in this world, there is still that o-one piece of her l-lives on, you kn-know?" he took a shaky breath as he finished.

With the way he was stuttering, Sasuke assumed that Naruto began crying, but when he turned his Naruto's arm that had been wound around him, had gripped his waist tighter with each minute as he spoke, his blue eyes were merely watering. He was not letting his tears fall.

Sasuke wrapped his arms around his lover's neck, holding him tightly, and Naruto's spare arm joined the one already gripping his waist, and he held Sasuke against him, he buried his face into the raven's shoulder as he finally let the tears fall. It was still hard for him sometimes when he talked about his parents.

"I understand completely, I felt exactly the same way when I saw her red hair, I truly did," Sasuke whispered, and he was not lying just to comfort the crying blonde in his arms. Naruto had told Sasuke about his parents, he even had a picture of the two, looking so happy and carefree, and very beautiful. Sasuke admired her red hair, it was not like Gaara's bright scarlet, more of a deep burgundy, and when Ayumi came out with the same, he fell in love with it. That could have just been because she was his daughter though.

He just felt that it was so special, that red hair had been a symbol of the Uzumaki clan, and of Kushina herself, and what was more, Ayumi was the only on in Konohagakure with that red hair. That made it even more special, she was one of a kind.

"You did?" Naruto's muffled voice asked.

Sasuke nodded, turning his head into Naruto's neck, "Would I lie to you?" he asked, placing a soft kiss onto that tanned skin of his neck.

"You could do, teme," he said, this time with a more joking tone.

Sasuke chuckled, "Now when was the last time I heard you call me that? Dobe," he smiled, feeling nostalgia creep into his stomach, they had not called each other those- nicknames of sorts- names for years now, and possibly not since before Ayumi had been born. Sure if they argued the names would come out, but before they would call each other them in near enough every sentence.

He felt Naruto smile into his shoulder, "I recall last week when we ran out of ramen, an all-out war broke out, Ayumi had been almost as devastated as I was, if not more,"

Sasuke nodded at the memory, "Ah, yes, and from what I recall, it had apparently been my fault,"

"Well, before we get into this again, how about we get some shut eye?" Naruto suggested, and Sasuke's eyebrows immediately rose, it was rare for Naruto to be the mature one and end an argument.

They pulled apart from each other, although Naruto kept an arm around Sasuke's waist, who turned around and bent to give Ayumi a small kiss one her forehead, Naruto doing the same after, as the blonde pulled away from his daughter, the hand that had stroked her hair as he pecked her, gently stroked down her cheek. He stood straight, a smile on his face once again, his blue eyes shining with love and affection toward his daughter.

They walked out of the room with only one thought on their minds:

Ayumi was their special little girl.

The girl with Kushina's beautiful red hair.

"Besides, I couldn't stand it if you withheld sex again!" Naruto said gleefully, revealing his true reasons for ending the argument, followed quickly with a grunt as Sasuke elbowed him in the stomach.

"You aren't getting any tonight,"

"But Sasuke-temeeeee!"

Or not.

I hope you enjoyed this light-hearted piece of love! I honestly do not know what's come over me since watching the episodes with Naruto and Kushina, like, omg, I've turned into a totally girly, pansy, emotional... thing. Lol. Basically what Naruto and Sasuke are saying in this are the reasons for me changing Ayumi's hair colour! Anyway! Review please~ :)
