Chapter 1 – The New Born

...

It had been a normal Wednesday morning for Sasuke. He was soundly asleep in his comfortable bed and hidden well beneath the warm covers he cocooned himself in. The ringing of his phone was the only annoyance he woke up with this morning.

Pulling his cell from the bedside table with closed eyes, Sasuke peeked at the caller ID and sighed before answering. He blinked sleepily and awaited the caller to speak.

"Hinata's water broke!" Sasuke heard his friend exclaim loudly in his ear.

"Does the dobe realize that it's four in the morning?" Sasuke thought agitated.

"What do you want me to do about it?" he questioned Naruto with a lazy and tired slur of his voice. He was dead tired.

"I'm calling to tell my boss that I won't be in this morning" Naruto replied as if it was obvious.

"Hn. Good luck, dobe, you're going to need it" Sasuke knew that the blond didn't know what was awaiting him in the labouring room.

"I'll be calling you later. See you, teme!"

Sasuke sighed as he pulled the phone from his ear and placed it back on the bedside table. He was exhausted working around the clock at the Uchiha Police Department. He had left the UPD last night around 12 o'clock, said good night to the policemen he left in charge and went home.

He pulled the covers closer to his form and after lying comfortably under his warm duvet he fell asleep once again before having to wake up in a few hours time.

...

I gently shifted my hair behind my ear as I waited for my friends to arrive. Ino, my best friend, had made shopping plans at Konoha Mall, but I decided to invite Kiba and Shikamaru along with us to surprise Ino.

The truth is that Ino has a crush on Shikamaru, but doesn't have the guts to confess her feelings or act upon them. I knew that once Shikamaru arrived Ino would drag him all over the mall with a big silly grin on her face and I would be home free.

Inside I grinned at my smart plan. I would be free to enjoy a coffee with Kiba while Ino and Shikamaru roamed the mall in search of all things stylish.

I smiled as I noticed Ino among the crowd. Meeting up with me, Ino gave me a friendly hug. "Hi Sakura" Ino grinned as she pulled back from our shared hug.

"Hey Ino"

Ino's baby-blue eyes sparkled as she hooked her arm with mine. "Let us explore the possibilities of fashion, before all the good stuff gets taken" she stuck her tongue out playfully.

I giggled at my best friends antics. I halted her movement. "Wait, I have a surprise for you"

She beamed. "Really!"

I nodded. "I invited Kiba-sempai and Shikamaru to join us"

It seemed as if the blond's eyes sparkled even more radiantly after hearing Shikamaru's name. "And you said you didn't have a crush on Shikamaru" I thought.

"I haven't seen Shika-kun in a while" Ino said.

"I haven't seen Kiba-sempai either, that is why I decided to invite them" I admitted as I watched my best friend smile with excitement.

We started to converge in idle chit-chat when the men arrived. Ino could hardly hold herself in. "Hey Shikamaru!" she exclaimed as she smiled at her crush.

"Troublesome…" Shikamaru muttered as his eyes wondered off into an unknown direction.

Ino glared at him. "It's nice to see you too after such a long time"

I nearly giggled at the familiar antics of those two. "Hey Saku" Kiba greeted with a grin and I hauled over for a quick hug.

"How is it going, Kiba-sempai?" I asked as I stared at the grin that wouldn't seem to leave his face.

"It's going really great!" the brunette exclaimed still grinning widely.

"Okay, now I just have to know what is up with that grin of his. He's grinning wider than Naruto" I realized.

Kiba saw that I was curious to know what was going on with him. "Let's talk about it over some drinks?" he suggested.

I nodded smiling at him. "Shikamaru and I will be shopping, we won't be long." Ino swiftly grabbed Shikamaru by the arm and dragged the ever lazy male with her.

"What a drag." Shikamaru sighed but allowed himself get man-handled by the blond beauty none-the-less.

Kiba and I stared at them as the two embark on their shopping. Kiba turned to me and held his hand out to the direction of the food court. "Shall we?" he grinned boyishly.

"We shall." I giggled as we walked towards our favourite café side by side.

...

"Kiba that is wonderful news" I smiled at the man sitting across from me. My old friend from high school hasn't changed much since I had met him.

"Thanks, Sakura. I have to admit that I am pretty impressed with myself. I thought for sure that she would reject me." Kiba gave a sigh of happiness. "I still can't believe I'm a taken man."

I smiled at Kiba's blissful face. He really did look happy about his new girlfriend. She sounded nice too. "What about your love life?"

I started at him with blank indifference. "I'll take that as a 'I haven't found the right guy yet, Kiba-sempai'." He tried mimicking me. I laughed openly at his failed attempt.

"I do not sound like that," I stated "And you're right, I haven't found the right guy yet" I shrugged, accepting that fact.

I silently took a long sip of my beverage. "Sakura, if you don't open up to other people, men preferably," he joked "then you're never going to find the right guy"

I sighed. "You know that outings aren't really my thing, Kiba" I reminded him.

"I know" he replied, giving up.

"I'll find someone eventually it'll just take a little more time" I told him.

...

Sasuke was leisurely going through an important document when his cell rang. He dropped the file and answered his phone. "Teme!" Naruto exclaimed loudly.

Sasuke cringed inwardly at the loudness of his childhood friend. "Dobe?" he questioned.

"I need some vocal support" the blond told him.

"What?" Sasuke drawled lazily. He still hadn't gotten his much needed sleep.

"I can't take Hinata's screaming any long-," Sasuke suddenly heard a loud painful moan from the background.

Sasuke raised a dark eyebrow. "Are you calling me from the labouring room?" he had to ask.

"NARUTO!" Sasuke heard Hinata's voice confirming that Naruto was indeed calling from the labour room "You better get your ass back here or I'm naming the baby after Sasuke!" Hinata exclaimed, pain evident in her voice.

Sasuke blinked a few times at the very loud and out of character Hinata he heard yelling at Naruto over the phone. "This is a side of Hinata that I haven't met yet, and I don't think I want to" Sasuke thought.

"I gotta-…OH MY_" Sasuke was sure he heard a loud thud from the other end of the line. He hung up and smirked.

Sasuke knew that Naruto just saw a picture that was going to give him nightmare's for at least a few weeks. "Idiot."
