"You know… I wouldn't mind if someday I do get to here the little pitter patter of Nara feet in here."

"You know, it might be sooner then you think."
'INO! You mean you're…"

"Yep."

"…shit…"

"What!"

"We gotta get married."

Shikamaru's POV

Ok I have to say, honestly I should rethink anything I ever said about my mum and mood swings. The mood swings of a pregnant woman are so much worse. One minute she is all happy and glowing, the next she is screaming and throwing things around. And then she is asking me sweetly for pickles and ice-cream. Pickles and ice cream is what she chose as her new favourite food. Its disgusting and its even worse to watch her dip the pickles into the ice-cream and shove it into her mouth, I want to vomit every time. We aren't married yet. I wanted to get married right away, but Ino insisted we wait until after the baby was born. She didn't care if it was born out of wedlock; she said that there was no way she was going to get married with a giant stomach. She is only a few months along and has barley gained any weight, just a tiny little tummy which I personally adore, but already she is complaining and getting depressed. I am scared of when she has the huge belly and swollen toes. But, I have a feeling by that time it will hit her that it is our baby in there and not mind as much. Her father of course was NOT pleased when he found out. We told our parents together. We sat them all down in one room, her dad and my mum and dad. And we told them straight-out. My dad just sighed and muttered that I was a stupid kid. Ino's dad was furious, but it all straightened itself out when my mum, god love her, squealed that she was going to be a grandma. Then it hit Mr. Yamanaka that he too was going to have grandkids, and then we explained that we were getting married right after when Ino looked "beautifully slim again" to quote her, he cheered right up. He even shook my hand and gave me his blessings. We weren't engaged yet, but it was obvious that we would be soon. With Ino it was as simple as to just assume that we were engaged, there had to be that big surprise, huge dinner…then down on one knee, speech crying, flowers EVERYTHING. I'll do it for her despite it being troublesome she is worth it, but as I said…it's troublesome.

Now I am stuck in the waiting room at the hospital waiting with Ino for her check-up. I don't know why I have to come to these things. The fist one I understand, seeing your baby for the first time on the monitor is an amazing feeling, it took Ino 15 minutes to find it, but the 4th one now, I am not needed. I just sit there and look at a magazine while Sakura looks and makes sure everything is safe with Ino and the baby. When Sakura finally arrives we go in and I take my usual seat in the back with the latest copy of ninja weekly, and by latest I mean the issue from three months ago and the appointment goes on completely without my involvement, so much for fatherly participation, not that I'm complaining. The concepts of these checkups baffle me beyond belief. A little gel and a scope can show you your unborn child on a monitor…what's the point? Why not just wait… its not like you can really make out anything about the child anyways… but then again that is just my point of view, I suppose other people find joy in this…I know Ino does.

"Alright, lets see how things are looking….oh..Is that…oh my god!"

That got my attention; I looked up from my article on shoe support. That didn't sound particularly good, but then again Sakura was the kind of person who always blew things out of proportion. This could simply be an "oh my god there is a fly on the screen"… but then again it could be something like "oh my god the baby has no head!"

Before I could say anything to express my worry, Ino beat me too it, in a more panicked way then I might have, but it was basically the thoughts that were throwing themselves madly though my mind.

"What's wrong? Is my baby ok! What's wrong" Ino cried, and struggled to sit up on the examination bed.

Sakura smiled and pushed her slowly back down.

"Everything's fine, I was just startled is all" she said, "There is something big I need to tell you, but it is not bad…in fact it is a good thing."

This had my attention I stood and walked to Ino's side and held her hand. She squeezed back, and we both turned are attention to Sakura. She smiled more and turned the monitor around so we could see it, as she did at every appointment, only this time I was leaning forward hoping to spot what the big "problem" was. But all I could see was, as usual, a black and grey mass of moving image. Sakura pointed to the screen, her finger outlining something

"Ok do you see this here, the head, the body the legs"

We both nodded, the baby was bog enough now to actually see it. She smiled more now, her finger moved to the side a little

"Now do you see this arm and this body?"

We nodded slowly. And then it hit me. It hit me before it hit Ino. Twins. We were having twins. I could tell when she realized because her eyes lit up, and she smiled such a huge smile. I to couldn't help but smile, and I squeezed her hand tighter. I not only gave the love of my life a child, I gave her two.
