YUSSS! I AM FANGIRLING SINCE I READ THE LAST TWO CHAPTERS!
I CAN'T BELIEVE ! AND THEIR DAUGHTER IS SO CUTE!
SARADA ! OMFG! *SQUEALS*
And I had to put up a new fic! I couldn't contain my excitement!
I hope you enjoy this canon fic!
"Sarada-chan, why won't you help me cut these tomatoes?" Sakura asks politely so as to distract her child from sulking. But she received no response.
It was a bright sunny spring morning in Konoha. The kids were happily having fun outside exept for one kid. And she was currently sulking in the dining hall looking out the window. She had her small hands on her chin, just like how Sasuke used to sit when he was young. Her face was in a scowl. She had no interest in listening to her mother. She was angry and mad.
Sakura sighed to herself. Like father like daughter. She reminded her of Sasuke so much. A small smile crossed Sakura's face. She could see so much of Sasuke in Sarada. She had the same stubborn attitude and arrogance . Of course she spoke less. When she did speak at all it would be with her and her father. She went behind her daughter and put both her hands on her little shoulders.
"Sarada-chan, its a beautiful day. Hima-chan, Bolt, Shika, Inojin and everyone else is out playing. Why don't you go join them?" Sakura asks sweetly.
"I don't want to." Sarada states in monotone.
"Alright then. What would you like to do?" Sakura asks as she turns her daughter towards her.
"Nothing. Leave me alone." She commands.
Sakura sighs and goes back to the kitchen. What else was she going to expect? Some nice answer? No duh! She was Sasuke's daughter after all. She would know no words that mean request. She was almost done preparing for lunch. It was a tradition that every week the Rookies and Team Gai as well as Sai would meet up each other at the Uchiha compound for lunch to catch up. And in an hour everyone would be arriving.
She started setting up plates and glasses. She looked around to see if Sarada was still there. She was no where to be seen. She sensed her chakra. It was resting peacefully. Sakura smiled to herself. She had alomst no hope of getting through to Sasuke. And to think that she is here now, well she is damn proud of the journey she has made. She is now a strong woman. An Uchiha too. She was soon cut out of her thoughts as soon as she heard her best friend shout.
"Sakura! Food smells really good! " Ino walks through and sits herself down in the dining room.
"Hey to you too Pig!" Sakura greets her best friend.
"Where's Sarada-chan? I didn't find her playing with the rest." Ino asks Sakura who was now sitting opposite to Ino.
"She's sleeping " Sakura answers as she stretches her hands and legs.
"Is she not well?" Ino questions as she pours herself a glass of water.
"She is well Ino. She is just angry." Sakura sighs.
"Angry?" Ino raises a brow at her.
"Sasuke-kun isn't here. Actually he's been gone for the entire week and that's pissing her off." Sakura states in a tired manner.
"Geez! Sasuke really needs to stop disappearing like that. No wonder she is angry. Inojin can't stay away from Sai for more than three days. Haven't you talked about it with Sasuke?" Ino askes in concern.
"I haven't got the time to talk Ino. He's either busy with some top secret shit with Naruto or away doing god knows what. I will make sure he gets an earful when he gets back this time." Sakura states in an angry voice.
"Looks like someone's having trouble controlling their husband" Temari mocks as she walks in with Hinata.
"Don't even remind me" Sakura spats.
Hinata and Temari take a seat around the huge dining table.
"Where's Sarada-chan?" Hinata asks.
"Oh, she is just being broody and emo like her daddy-dearest" Ino answers. Sakura just bends her head down.
"Here I thought she would take after you, Sakura." Temari comments with a smirk on her face.
"Shut up Temari!" Sakura throws a crumpled tissue at her.
"To be honest, Shikadai takes after Shikamaru . So freaking lazy! Thought he wouldn't be lazy considering you are the mother Temari!" Ino mocks her.
Temari only scowls this time.
"And we don't even have to speak about Bolt" Tenten comments as she walks in with Kauri.
The ladies all sat down to have a chit chat before the guys came in and caused havoc.
"I had so hoped that he wouldn't take after Naruto-kun" Hinata sighed
"At least Hima-chan takes after you" Karui comments.
"True. But Chou-chan takes after Chouji! Not to forget, Tenji takes after Neji! How pathetic " Temari comments.
"Looks like all the kids take after their father very much." Sakura says dryly.
"So true. So how has life been?" Tenten asks.
"Same old same old. Boring missions. House-hold stuff." Ino comments.
"Nothing new there . Its the same for all of us." Temari says as she gulps down water.
"By the way where is Sasuke?" Karui asks. All heads turn to Sakura.
"God knows where he is. Like he tells me where he goes. The only other person who knows is Naruto." Sakura hisses. She was so freaking mad at Sasuke.
"And Naruto is never going to tell where Sasuke goes and comes. " Hinata adds.
"I think you are not taking control Sakura." Ino accuses.
"Are you freaking kidding? Take control in the Uchiha household?!" Tenten gasps.
"Duh." Karui comments like its a simple thing.
"Hello, if you haven't noticed by now, I am married to THE UCHIHA SASUKE. The most arrogant, self-rightious , stubborn guy in the world. And you expect me to actually take control?" Sakura asked in a dejected voice.
"You know, she has a point." Ino sighs.
"FOOD SMELLS SO DAMN GOOD!" Kiba and Naruto shout as they enter the dining room. The ladies sighed.
"Looks like everyone's here." Shino comments as he sees the rest of the guys enter the room.
"Alright boys! Settle down fast." Temari commands.
The boys all settle down. The girls too.
"So how have all of you been?" Kiba asks.
All of them replied with a we are doing good.
The chat continues for another 40 mins.
"Where is Sasuke?" Chouji asks.
Now everyone turns to look at Naruto.
Naruto gulped. This was not good. He could feel Sakura's glare. It felt like Sasuke's infamous glare. When she mastered it, he doesn't know.
"He..Yeah, He is on a .. Mission. yeah. Mission." Naruto states nervously.
"Naruto , I know its a fucking lie. Where the fuck is that husband of mine?" Sakura asks dangerously.
"What? Sasuke isn't on a mission?" Shikamaru asks.
"No. Sasuke keeps going in and out as and when he likes and Naruto is the only one who knows where he goes and what he does." Tenten states blankly.
"What! Now that the shinobi war has been over for almost 8 years what business has he got?" Neji asks.
"That's exactly what I am wondering. So what is it that he does?" Shino asks.
"Well .. Ummm..Why don't you all ask the teme?" Naruto smiled nervously.
"There is something you aren't telling us Naruto." Kiba narrows his eyes.
"And from the looks of it, something is going on." Lee states icly.
"Gee! I can't tell okay? Teme will have my fucking head if I did utter one single word about it." Naruto finally screams.
"So there is something going on! You better spit it out Naruto-kun." Hinata says dangerously.
"i can't. Sakura-chan, why don't you ask teme? It will be much better. As for now, Sayonara" With that Naruto runs off.
"What do you think is going on? " Karui and Chouji ask at the same time.
"I don't know. But the last time I saw Sasuke leave that building, he was pretty serious and pissed. Not that he isn't serious all the time. He looked extra serious." Neji remembers.
"And I also saw Naruto stressing over few things even I wasn't allowed to see." Shikamaru contemplates.
"Do you guys really think something is going on?" Ino asks in doubt.
"Its kinda obvious. Why else would Sasuke and Naruto keep it a secret?" Kiba questions.
"Kiba has a point. Sasuke directly comes to the Hokage tower. Doesn't use the village gate. He just teleports. Naruto and him meet during the night when no one can hear." Lee informs.
"Sakura, Hinata, you guys better get to the bottom of this." Temari tells her tow friends.
"Come to think of it, Naruto asked to keep Jounin level ninja to guard the gates. Its usually chunin who does that. " Tenten says as she remembers seeing jounins patroling last night.
"From the looks of it, something is going on right under our nose. And if I remeber correctly, I saw Sasuke walking towards the Shrine in the Uchiha grounds and I heard voices." Sai spoke after a very long time.
"What do you mean voices?" Ino demands.
"I was coming back from a mission, my painted rats were carrying my brushes. They could hear better and I could sense Sasuke's chakra. But I dind't know who the other person was. " Sai recollects
Everyone sat in silence. They didn't know what was going on.
"I think we should corner Naruto before Sasuke comes. Otherwise we won't know what's happening." Neji states.
Shikamaru opens his mouth to talk about the plan but was soon cut short.
A very intimidating chakra was already in the house.
"There goes our plan" Chouji says.
The rest sigh.
Sasuke enters the dining room to see if Naruto was still here. He just takes a look at each of them and turns around.
"I am so going to kick that dobe's ass today" He mutters angrily and leaves behind a cloud of smoke.
"What the hell was all that about?" Hinata questions in shock.
"I guess Naruto did some slip ups and Sasuke is pissed." Karui comments
"GUYS! I think its time you all left. Sasuke will come back any minute and I am so getting to the bottom of this. " Sakura states in a determinded voice.
"Alright." With that everyone takes their leave.
Sakura sits down on the couch. She was beyond mad. She didn't know what was happening. Sasuke still kept her out. What was so confidential that he couldn't share with her? She would never tell a soul about what Sasuke says to her. She always kept their relationship under wraps. She never told anyone that Sasuke smiles at her before he goes to bed. She never told anyone that they talk for hours after Sarada is asleep. She never mentioned that Sasuke cried a few times. And the very few times he cried was because of Itachi . And the one last time he cried was out of joy, when Sarada was born. When he comes back she was getting her answers. She still had to talk to Sasuke about Sarada. Its not like she could not take control. But there were few issues she had no say in. She was soon broken from her thoughts as she sensed Sasuke's chakra. She did not get up to greet him.
Sasuke entered the manor. He removed his shoes and went straight up to clean himself up. After twenty mins he was down at the dining room. He could see Sakura sitting down on one of the chairs . He was quiet surprised that she hadn't acknowledged him.
"Sakura" He calls as he sits down, opposite to her,
She just raises an eyebrow at him.
And at this, Sasuke knew she was pissed as hell.
"What's wrong?" He asks carefully.
"What's wrong?" She seeths and that's when she lost it.
"What's wrong is the fact that you are never home. There' s something serious going on. Neither you or Naruto is telling us a fucking thing. Forget about that right now. The fact that you leave for so long is taking a toll on Sarada-chan. Or did you forget the fucking fact that you actually have a daughter and she is not some vegetable we picked from the market instead needs love and care from both her parents?" Sakura spat in Sasuke's face.
Sasuke did not speak for a min. He knew she was right. He had not seen his daughter waiting for him along with Sakura. Instead she was sleeping.
"I haven't forgotten Sakura." He states calmly.
"Whatever Uchiha." With that Sakura storms off to find Sarada.
She had never called him Uchiha unless she was very upset. Sasuke sighed to himself. He couldn't just yet tell things to Sakura. Naruto and him had to figure things out first. And he knew he hasn't been paying proper attention to his family. he slowly finishes his lunch. He gets up and heads towards their master bedroom to find and explain things to Sakura.
He came into their bedroom only to find Sarada half awake and Sakura cutting some tomatoes for her. Sasuke walked in and sat at the edge of the bed. Neither of his girls payed him any attention.
Sakura because she was mad.
Sarada because she wanted her father to talk first.
"I can't explain what's going on. Just give me a bit more of time. I'll tell you eveything. I promise." Sasuke says in a low voice.
Sakura does not respond. But she is okay with what he said. Right now she wanted to hear another thing.
"Sarada" He calls out and stretches his arm towards her .
Sarada being the smart girl she was, knew that she had to take his hand. But being the stubborn kid she was, she just pouted and turned her face away.
Sakura sighed.
"This is exacly what happens when you don't pay attention. They grow stubborn. I'll leave you guys." With that Sakura gets up and leaves. She still had to clean up the mess.
" Hey, come here" Sasuke says in a soft voice. He turns his daughter towards him. She still had a scowl on her pretty face.
"I'm sorry, I haven't been home very much. But I promise I'll make it up." He says, slightly hoping she would give in. But he damn well knew she had both his and Sakura's stubborness.
To his surprise, Sarada had looked at him with those bright ebony eyes. It spoke of hope.
"Really?" She asked in excitement.
Sasuke nodded in return.
"Okay tou-chan. Lets go downstairs and take kaa-chan with us." She spoke in an excited little girl's voice . Soon she was seen running down.
Sakura heard the footseteps. She smiled to herself. Cold treatment always cracked her stoic husband.
"I am here Sarada-chan" Sakura calls out as she removes her apron.
"Kaa-chan, we are going out." She told her mother in an excited voice.
"Oh, did tou-san say so?" She bent down to her eye level and asked in a suspicious voice.
The girl blushed and turned away.
"Of course he didn't. " She says and ruffels her daughter's hair.
"We can go to the dock. The weather is warm. " Sasuke says as he sees the disappointed expression on his little girl's face.
"See! See! See! We are going out. " Sarada squeals like a happy lttle girl that she is and runs off to wear her sandals. Sakura just turns away from Sasuke .
"Seriously, you are going to keep acting like a bitch?" Sasuke was irritated now.
"I will act how I please." Sakura hisses
'' I already told you that I can't tell you right away what it is. I am not even sure." He growls at her. Why was she being stupid?
"And I told you that you can tell me what little you know. But seems like you don't trust me anymore. Come to think of it, you never did I guess." She spats.
"That's not true and you know it. Just give me a bit more of time dammit!" Sasuke knew he was losing his cool.
"Well Sasuke, how about this? You can be gone as long as you want . I am going to be the responsible parent and take care of Sarada and make sure she never gets hurt because of you ever again. And I will make sure she doesn't have to feel like she misses you ." Sakura looks at him levelly with determination burning in her eyes.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her statement. Oh she so did not mean what she said.
"You and I both know she would never like the idea of being seperated from me. And what? You are going to replace me with another guy? I would like to see you try." Sasuke glares back at her with anger. How dare she even think of leaving him. Much less get herself another guy!
"Don't forget that you are the one making me do all this" With that Sakura turns towards the door to follow Sarada.
Sasuke stands there, stunned. His marriage was going down the drains. And at the same time there were mysterious shit happening. He didn't know how he was going to balance it all out. He was not ready to lose his family. He had come to love them very much. If he was being honest with himself, Sakura and Sarada had become an integral part of his life. He felt compelete again. He sighed. He was going to have to tell bits of things he knew to Sakura.
