This one-shot is pretty short but it was just mainly to convey Kakashi reluctance about his wife's pregnancy. Airi my oc has black hair and hazel eyes. She is Uzumaki Kushina's (aka Naruto's mom) baby sister making her Namikaze Minato's sister in law. I just had to add Kushina in this because you don't hear much about her or her family. For those of you who read these oneshots before I reposted them I'll say a few things. Naruto and Kaiya are still cousins, it was decided after the thing that happens to Kushina and Airi that it would be wiser if Naruto didn't know about his mother's family though he bears the Uzumaki name. No one is going to come after him because he doesn't bear the birthmark that Kaiya does. Naruto and Kaiya will learn that they're cousins though probably not till way later. Also this Kushina and Airi share the same father but not mother. Airi's mom is Tsunade. And before you get all mad at me I did that because yes I wanted to but also because I've looked all over and it never came out in a straight answer that Tsunade and Dan were together as in getting married or seeing a future together. This is a fanfic story so please just deal.
Also I know Kakashi is like 26 in the beginning of the series but if I kept it that way he would have to be like 14 when he got Airi pregnant and my cricket guy just wouldn't let me do that. So I made him 17 because that's how old my mom was when she had me.
Artemis looks exactly like Kirara from Inuyasha and even has a saber form to. Basically she is Kirara just a slight name change.
I hope you like this! Oh and I do not own Naruto.
Oneshot 1: Things We've Handed Down
Kakashi laid next to his wife listening to her gentle even breathing as she slept peacefully by his side, her hands lying protectively over the growing bulge of her stomach.
He still couldn't completely grasp the fact that he, Hatake Kakashi, the Copycat Ninja, was going to be a father in a mere matter of six months.
Maybe the idea was so difficult to understand because he was only seventeen. True, he loved Airi more than life itself. She was his only remaining teammate from his Genin days and had been his light in the days after Obito's death.
The small demon cat Artemis laid curled next to Airi, making him frown as he rolled on his back to stare up at the ceiling. He hated cats and OF COURSE his wife owned one. Figures.
His biggest fear about this child was if he could be a good father. When he had voiced this fear to Airi, she had simply giggled before kissing his cheek and telling him he was going to be a great father.
Hell even Minato and Kushina; who was also about five months pregnant, kept telling him he was going to be just fine.
Though Kushina did threaten him within an inch of his life that if he ever harmed her sister or her niece/nephew she'd personally make sure he never had to worry about children again.
A little shiver ran down his back as he remembered her cheerful tone and happy smile as she had told him this.
Soon though, as it usually did, the fear gave away to a sense of wonder and curiosity.
Airi and he had created a new life. That was a pretty amazing feat in his mind.
Turning onto his side he gently brought Airi into his arms, he smirked as she snuggled into him in her sleep with a little smile on her face. It was hard to imagine that at one point in time that they could barely stand to be in the same room with each other, let alone the same team.
Slowly he laid his own hands on her stomach feeling for himself the growing bulge that was his child.
He couldn't help but wonder if it was going to be a momma's boy or a daddy's little girl. If it was a girl would her hair curl like her mothers or if it was a boy would he look just like his old man? Would the small child be a perfect blend of both it's parents?
"Hmm…" Airi murmured in her sleep to turn in his arms her black hair sliding down one shoulder as her hazel eyes slowly blinked open to stare into her husband's mismatched ones, "Go to sleep Kakashi." She said softly before nuzzling her head under his chin.
A small grin crossed his face as he held his wife an unborn child in his arms until the morning light filled the room.
REVIEW! Oh and the title to this oneshot comes from a Marc Cohn song of the same name. Really good song but hey can't make song fic's now can we? XD
