I DO NOT OWN NARUTO

IT IS OWNED BY MASASHI KISHIMOTO

Nesting

Sakura awoke to the semi-soothing noise of the mop being brushed across the floors in the home she and Sasuke shared. She still found it quite strange to say…'Sharing a home with Sasuke'. It was also quite a joyful thing to say as well though. They had recently updated to a home needing space now more than ever.

Finding out that they were expecting soon had sped up that process.

Sakura looked down at her pregnant belly, a smile finding it's way to her lips. She stroked her hand gently along her stomach, feeling the small movement of an arm beneath her skin, her child making her presence know.

Her….a daughter. A beautiful baby girl that was both a part of her and Sasuke. She could only imagine how beautiful she would be….

Sakura flinched looking down at her stomach, giggling then.

"Was I not paying enough attention to you?" Sakura said laughing, as she patted her stomach which had received a rather strong kick. Not surprising considering this was her daughter.

The increased sound of moping and spraying, and wiping continued to fill Sakura's ears.

She took a deep breath and carefully hoisted herself up, her one arm holding onto the bed, supporting her. She let out a large sigh once she was standing.

"Let's go see what your father is doing." Sakura said patting her belly.

Sakura wasn't expecting to find Sasuke in a frenzy when she walked into the kitchen. Their eyes met and Sasuke immediately calmed his facial expression, then walking over to Sakura and kissing her on the forehead.

"Good morning." He then said.

Sakura nodded."Good morning."

Sakura smiled when Sasuke's eyes drifted down to her pregnant belly, his hand then rested on top of her belly.

"How is she this morning." He then asked her in a serious tone.

"She's feisty as usual, kicking me." Sakura said giggling.

Sasuke nodded, a small smirk painted across his face.

"What about you? what are you doing out here?" Sakura asked, looking around the kitchen spotting the mop and cleaning supplies that lay across the counters.

Sasuke said nothing, instead starting to pack away the cleaning supplies.

"Well, it looks like you were obviously cleaning." Sakura said inspecting the counters and floor.

"Sasuke it's spotless! how long have you been at this?" Sakura asked.

"6:00am." Sasuke said.

"6 in the morning?! don't you think that's a little early to be cleaning Sasuke?" Sakura asked flabbergasted.

"Perhaps, everything just seemed so dirty though. With the baby coming home in a week, I don't want her to get sick because of any dirt or germs." Sasuke said trying to explain himself.

Sakura smiled before walking over to Sasuke, and kissing him on the cheek. She then started laughing.

"What's so funny?" Sasuke asked, confused by his wife's behavior.

"You're nesting Sasuke." Sakura answered, her amused laughter calming down.

"Nesting?"

"Yes, it's a way of preparing for the baby. It's an irrepressible urge that most mothers or fathers get. It's completely normal." Sakura said stroking his cheek.

"I think I'm just ready for her to be here." Sasuke said, pulling a hair away from Sakura's face.

"Tell me about it, I feel like I'm about to pop." Sakura said looking down at her large stomach.

Sasuke smiled. "She'll be here soon enough, I'm ready to hold her myself."

"I'm sure you are. You're not used to not being in control are you?" Sakura asked wrapping her arms around Sasuke's neck.

"You're in complete control in this situation." Sasuke said quietly.

"Pardon me? what did you say?" Sakura pressed, though knowing full well what he said.

"You know what I said."

Sakura smiled and rested her head in the crook of Sasuke's neck, relaxing in his embrace.

Sakura counted her blessings everyday.
