It was in little baby's first minuets of life in his mother's womb when tragedy hit him, he however, didn't know this. All he knew was that he could feel the depression in his mother, and it affected him. It hurt that his mother was like that and he couldn't understand.

The reason was, however, that his father died fighting against the Akatsuki. He didn't know that though. It was then when team eight and team ten found out that Kurenai was pregnant with Sarutobi Asuma's kid. It hurt Kurenai so bad that she didn't know what to do. Tsunade, the hokage, was now worried for the baby's health inside the womb.

The little boy inside his mom, tried doing what babies do when the feel their mom like that. They move. However, he didn't know that all babies do this and he remembered once his mom was ecstatic when he did that the first time. It made him happy. However, when he did it this time, she choked into a sob.

She got over it sooner or later, but the baby boy was worried so he did thing that he thought might cheer her up. He was the grandson of the sandaime, however he didn't know this, the little boy was very bright. Soon his mother's happiness was very often and she smiled whenever he kicked or moved, and soon she resembled like she ate a small melon in her close, like a cantaloupe or something.

One day she was with her team and she felt a kick. Hinata smiled when they were told, Kiba and Akamaru asked what was she going to name him.

"It could be a girl Kiba," Shino said.

"Yea so." That got a laugh from Hinata and Kurenai. Kiba smiled.

"Well if it's a boy I'm going to name him after his dad, if it's a girl I don't really know," Kurenai said. She always told Asuma "No" straight out when he said he wanted to name him after himself, but now the baby's father was gone, so she decided to name it after him, to preserve his memory. There was one name Asuma wanted for a girl that she would never use even to preserve his memory, Penelope, no way in heck would she name her daughter that, if it was a girl to begin with.

"So Kurenai-sensei how many months in are you?" asked a loud blond. She looked at Hinata who promptly blushed hearing her crush for so long, that none of them knew when it happened really. Though team eight noticed that her blush wasn't as pink as usual. Sakura was walking right next to him; Naruto's hand was clasped around Sakura's wrist. That made Hinata's heart hurt. Kiba and Shino took Hinata away saying that they had to train. Her eyes showed sadness.

"I'm seven months in Naruto-san, nice to see team seven again, hey Kakashi," Kurenai said as the rest of team seven appeared, "Hi Yammato, Sasuke-san, Sai-san," Three of them said hi Sasuke just nodded in noting it. Kurenai smiled as once again the baby kicked. Kakashi smiled looking at friends' kid.

She was very happy about her check up, the baby was defiantly a boy and he was very healthy and happy. She went to bed pleased that night, her gift from Asuma was there and he would be there watching over her and his son.

It was three in the morning when Hinata, Kiba with Akamaru, and Shino got a message to meet at the hospital. They ran in and was ushered in to see there sensei in labor. Two months early, that was what the baby was. Two months earlier then expected. Kiba's hand was being squeezed and he was screaming with Kurenai. She had a very strong grip and, after the doctor said that she broke some of his fingers and carpals; that made the two women laugh. Hinata was assisting the doctor in the delivery, and Shino was filming. That was his "mission" from Kurenai.

Kurenai cursed Asuma for doing this to her, but she loved him. Dang you Asuma, she thought. Hinata coaxed Kurenai into the different things and she kept squeezing Kiba's hand.

"Woman do you want to break my hand off,"

"Yes!" She yelled back.

Finally after eight hours of labor, which is the usual time, she had given birth to a bouncing baby boy. He was very happy and bubbly. She smiled at the baby. Sarutobi Asuma the second. Named after her husband.

Team ten was invited in after that and Shikamaru was in shock. The baby had his mother's eyes and his father's hair.

"What's his name?" Shikamaru asked.

"Sarutobi Asuma the second, named after his dad." Kurenai said smiling at the baby on her lap.

Tsunade came in and she was happy both mother and son were healthy and very happy. The baby slept peacefully as Shizune made records from him. Checking any blood disease, and any other genetic diseases that might have been passed. She also checked other things like the health of the baby and mother. Tsunade saw that Sakura, and Ino was also doting over the two. She wondered what happened to Hinata.

When here eyes hit the girl, she saw that she was looking over charts and filling out a report. She must have been the one on call that night, Tsunade thought. The doctor, had fainted when the baby started coming out butt first. Hinata took over from there. At least that was what Kiba told her but with more detail then that. Hinata was diligently doing her work. She had to take the night shift because of her other jobs. She was still a ninja, but she was also working in the diplomacy field, as a chunin teacher sub, next semester taking her title as the teacher of the class, and working in the hospital, oh and on top of it all clan things. Tsunade sighed at the girl, she was always working hard no matter what always doing what she was told. How she found time to train with her team as well she didn't know, much less even have fun.

Hinata explained what had happened and Tsunade was pissed at the doctor. He should have been prepared for anything not just the usual. Kurenai smiled holding her baby close. She knew who the godparents were going to be and both happened to be Asuma's choice the only one he made correctly in her opinion. She inwardly laughed at the memory.

She and Asuma were lying on the couch watching t.v. when he said. "If we have a kid I want him to be named after me or named Penelope."

"You're kidding right?" Kurenai asked.

"Nope,"

"No kid of mine is going to be named Asuma or named Penelope come on,"

"Fine then I can choose the god parents,"

"Fine,"

"I choose Shikamaru and…"

"Kurenai-sensei, Kurenai-sensei!" Kiba was yelling snapping her out of her day dream.

"What gaki?!" she yelled back.

"Sheesh pms man, Tsunade asked if you knew who the god parents were."

Kurenai took a deep breath and nodded, she knew this would break some peoples hearts and not others but she had to do it. She opened her mouth and was interrupted by more people coming in for the announcement. Then she yelled.

"WHAT ARE YOU ALL DOING IN MY ROOM GET OUT!!!" she yelled at all the new comers. Sheesh today was going to be a long day.
