The little boy gazed at the round belly of the woman that was sitting in his house with his mother.
The two women were both nonchalantly chatting away, not paying any mind to the little boy that was sitting in front of them staring at the woman's belly.
"Itachi, what's wrong?" his mother questioned.
He paid no heed to her question but continued to stare at the belly.
The other lady then spoke up, "Would you like to touch my belly?"
Itachi looked up at the lady and hesitated slightly and slowly approached her belly, his hands shaking until he finally placed it on her stomach.
He gazed for a long time.
"There's a baby in there?"
The woman smiled down at Itachi and rubbed her stomach.
"Yep there is and she should be coming out soon."
"She?"
"Yep, her name is Koumori and I hope that you take good care of her Itachi."
"I will."
The woman laughed and looked at Mikoto.
"Your son is going to take my daughter away before she's even born."
Both of the women laughed.
"Who knows Shizuka, maybe if I have another son he will be the one that takes her away," Mikoto said between laughs.
Itachi looked at her mother questioningly.
"I'm going to have another brother?"
Mikoto looked down at her son and just shrugged her shoulders.
"Maybe Itachi. Who knows?"
The two women chuckled between themselves continuously thinking about the possibilities of the two families joining.
"Kaa-san, how are babies made?"
The two woman stopped laughing and stared at the 2-year-old boy.
"I'll tell you when you're a little bit older Itachi," Mikoto said.
And with that the subject was dropped.
"Onii-san! Wait for me!"
"Sasuke, mom told us not to be late."
"I'm trying to hurry."
Itachi sighed and stopped for his brother and knelt down.
"Get on my back. It'll be faster this way."
Sasuke eagerly got on to his brother's back and Itachi took off.
They had just barely made it in time to see Koumori coming out of the academy with her hitai-ite.
Sasuke jumped off of Itachi's back and ran over to the little girl.
"Kou-nee-chan! Congratulations! You are officially a kunoichi!"
The little girl patted Sasuke on the head and smiled down at him.
"Thanks Sasuke."
Sasuke gave Koumori a big smile and grabbed the hand that she used to pat his head.
The two walked back to their parents and Itachi.
Shizuka knelt down and hugged her little girl.
"Oh! I am so proud of you. Your father would have been so proud of you."
Fugaku and Mikoto both smiled at Koumori.
Fugaku came forward and ruffled Koumori's hair.
"Good job Koumori. I expect great things from you."
Koumori looked at the older man and smiled gently at him.
Her mother glomped her into a hug again and nuzzled her cheek against her daughters.
"Who knew that Koumori would follow in Itachi's footsteps and end up graduating from the academy at 7. But that's my little girl! I knew she would be the smartest girl in the village."
The girl smiled at all of the compliments that she was receiving from her elders.
A hand then gently was placed on the top of her head.
She looked up and saw that the hand belonged to Itachi.
"Good job Koumori."
"Thank you Itachi-san."
The two women shrieked with joy and tears of joy fell down their faces.
The three children and the man just looked at them with incredulous looks on their faces.
"Shizuka, this is the day that we were waiting for. It seems like my little boy is going to take your little girl."
"It's okay Mikoto as long as it is Itachi I don't mind."
Itachi, Koumori, and Fugaku sighed at what the women were saying. Sasuke being the only one that was looking at them confusingly.
"Okaa-san, obaa-san, I'm going to marry Kou-nee-chan when I get older, not nii-san!"
The women peered down at the little boy, shocked that he would actually want to take something that belongs to his brother.
"Oh, well look at that Mikoto, even Sasuke wants my little Kou-chan! I approve whether it is Sasuke or Itachi! I don't mind either. They will make cute babies either way."
Koumori intervened at this sentence.
"Kaa-san, I am only 7, I don't want a baby."
"Of course not now silly Kou-chan! When you're older! Now Mikoto, I think we should start planning out the weddings."
"Oh Shizuka and it would be so much more fun because now we can plan two different kinds depending on which of my sons will marry your daughter!"
"Let's go get this started then Mikoto!"
The two women stood up and began to walk away, eagerly chatting about their children's future.
Fugaku sighed and followed the women.
Koumori also sighed and looked back at Itachi.
"I'm so sorry Itachi-san, my kaa-san can be a handful."
Itachi patted Koumori's head.
"It's okay Koumori, it is also my okaa-san too. However, good job on your graduation."
Koumori bowed to Itachi.
"Thank you again Itachi-san."
Itachi just nodded and the two continue to stand there.
Sasuke not liking being ignored grabbed onto Koumori's hands and began to drag her away from his brother.
"Don't worry Kou-nee-chan, I will start the academy next year and I will become stronger than Nii-san."
Koumori smiled as Sasuke continued to drag her away. Itachi was also smiling, laughing on the inside of his silly brother's jealousy.
