We Have A Child?!
Itachi was sitting on his bed in his room at the Akatsuki lair, reading a book when a knock on the door was heard. Looking up from his book and at the door, "Come in" said Itachi.
It was Konan, Itachi's girlfriend, who entered with a nervous look on her face. 'I wonder whats wrong?'Itachi thought. 'She only looks like that when she has something big on her mind' .
'Well I'm here now so I have to tell him'Konan thought to herself. She cleared her throat and swallowed a few times. 'No, I can't its not the right time. He won't understand.'
"Konan-chan" Itachi said breaking her silence and making her jump back a bit. "Was there something you needed from me?"
"I-I, Itachi I…" she started forcing herself to say the words. "Itachi-kun, I need to tell you something very important."
"What is it Konan-chan" Itachi replied staring into her wonderfully deep eyes, getting slightly worried when he noticed her extreme worried look. She usually was bright, cheerful, and had a sassy attitude, but now she was quiet and her eyes were downcast.
"I…We…" she started, but stopped in order to cease her slight trembling. She sighed. 'Why is it so hard to tell him? I'm sure he'll understand…. But, but what if he doesn't? What if he never speaks to me again?'
"Here," Itachi said motioning to a seat next to him, "sit down. Whatever you need to tell me will be easier if you are sitting."
Konan sighed again before trying again. 'Pull yourself together!'One more gulp and swallow of air later and she blurted out "Itachi, I'm-pregnant-with-one-son-and-you-are-the-father."
Itachi wondered if she even took a breath during that last sentence. He sat back, jaw dropped with a very surprised look on his face. After a few minutes of silence he managed to form the words "We have a child?!" "Why didn't you tell me this before?"
"I knew it!" she said, getting up and quickly walking to the door. "I knew it was the wrong time and that you wouldn't underst-"
She was unable to finish her sentence because Itachi had grabbed her wrist and pulled her against him while bringing them together into a tight kiss. Konan was startled at his sudden movement, but then pulled herself tightly to him and returned the kiss with more passion than before realizing Itachi's intentions. After what seemed like a perfect eternity to the both of them, they finally pulled away for a breath of cool oxygen.
"That was all Konan-chan?" Itachi chuckled as he sat them both back down. "You made it sound like you had contracted a horrible incurable disease."
"Well it wasn't the easiest thing in the world to tell the one you love," was her reply. " I thought you would be angry or something and that you would never speak to me again" she then said smiling slightly, her mood having grown from nervous to cheerful.
They both sat looking at each other with nameless expressions of love. The room had become silent, but it was a comfortable silence.
'I love it when she smiles' he thought. "Well…," he said after while, "what are we going to name our new son?"
"Well, I've been thinking about that lately. I like the name Sasuke. Does it sound good to you Itachi-kun?" Konan said.
"It sounds great to me." Itachi replied. He then layed down on his bed and pulled Konan to his chest. She made herself comfortable with her head laying sideways in the crook of his neck, and her arms around him with her eyes closed as she listened to his heartbeat and the sound of his breathing. He put his arms around her protectively and he rested his head on hers. She loved it when they laid like that. It made her feel so safe, so warm, so loved. She quickly drifted to sleep feeling so relieved knowing she had finally gotten what felt like a large weight off her chest. She was relieved he had accepted what she had said with open arms. Itachi smiled when he heard her quiet even breaths and realized sleep had taken her over. He then thought to himself 'How will we tell everyone else?', before wandering off to sleep himself.
