This is my first fanfiction so bare with me …
Wayward Children
"When my mom was pregnant with me she did three things to jeopardize a babies life. Everyone thought she would miscarry but she didn't. And my Dad always said that it was because God had a special plan for me. I liked the thought at the time but now I know it's not true. If there was someone who had this planned for me then it sure as hell wasn't God…"

"Sasuke wake up." Sakura stood over her husband who groaned and rolled over.
"I'm going to run some errands today ok?" Sasuke open one eye in a glare and Sakura turned away.
"You know what fuck you Sasuke!" she began grabbing her things angrily all thewhile cursing under her breath.
"Shit." Sasuke thought to himself. "Sakura? Baby come
on?" He stood up and walked across the room. She turned to him anger stained her face.
"What the hell is up with you? When we first met you were closed off but we've been
together for seven years now. Seven fucking years and you haven't changed at all."
Sasuke calmly slid behind his wife and kissed her neck. "Sweetie, don't you think your over reacting?"
Sakura's scowl thickened "Overreacting? OVERREACTING!? You're my husband and you don't care what I do, I tell you I am going to run errands and you glare at me! GLARE AT ME! It's so… so…" Sakura then burst into tears and grabbed Sasuke.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I love you, you know I love you don't you?"
Sasuke sighed and chuckled. "These pregnancy hormones are killing you." Sakura smiled through her tears. "You know I love you Sakura?" she nodded and turned back to getting her stuff. "Uzumaki is coming in thirty minutes. So I'm free till then, we can have breakfast. Would you like that?"
Sakura thought a minute,
"Yeah, what's leaving thirty minutes later going to do, they are just errands." Sasuke smiled and the two of them sat for breakfast.

Shikamaru head was submerged in in water of his sink.
Bubbles slowly rolled out of his nose and up to the surface. After almost a minute he pulled his head from the warm water and took in a large sum of oygen.
Hair hair was free from its usual ponytail and hung, wet, in his face.
He lazily brushed the hair from the right side of his face to the left side and walked from the bathroom.
"Please, Shika, please don't do this, for me?" Shikamaru walked out of the bathroom and set on his bed by temari.
"I have to go through with this, you know the other guys, without me they're fucked." Temari stared at her lover "That's not what I meant you egotistical prick and you know it. I don't think any of you should do this. It's stupid!"
Shikamaru raised his head and looked at Temari. "First of all my plans aren't stupid, were gonna be two steps ahead of the cops on everything. Secondly we need this, all of us. Kiba and Hinata have two kids that they can barely feed, Shino has amassed quite a gambling debt, and Choji and I can't get honest work, we bounce from job to job making shit at each one. Plus if I pull this off… I can finally buy you a ring." Shikamaru slid his hand on top of temari's and tightened his grip.
"That's true," Temari spoke "but how will you get it for me in prison, cause that's where you're headed." Shikamaru laughed and stood up. "I made a promise. I can't back down and you know it." Temari nodded and looked up at Shika as began making his coffee.
"Just promise me one thing," Shikamaru turned around with one eyebrow cocked. "Promise me you won't let them take you to prison." Shikamaru let out a cocky grin and learned back against the wall. "They're is know way that a single cop will lay his hands on me."
