Sasuke eyes gently fluttered open to the warm and doting rays of the morning sun. His brow furrowed, he gently placed his hand on top of his scalp before he rose from the floor, groaning lightly.
"You're awake." The heavenly voice sang to him in his muddled state of awakening and he slowly lifted his eyes to see his adoring wife. There she stood, stunning as always and fresh from their bed, gently wrapped in a navy silk robe that bore the crest of their clan on the back, the sash tied above her protruding stomach. He couldn't resist a smile while his eyes scanned her from the ground up, catching a glint of a blush flourish her delicate cheeks and he loved that he could still make her turn eight shades of red if he wished. "I thought for sure you'd still be sleeping late into the evening" she continued, returning his smile while she poured a warm cup of tea his sudden embrace from behind sending shivers down her spine, resting his arms on her stretched abdomen, clad in nothing but his boxers while he kissed lovingly on her neck.
"UG!" Came a voice of disgust from the opposite room, Sakura and Sasuke lifting their gazes to stare at the sickly face of Naruto. "Get a room!! And some pants, Sasuke!" Naruto huffed while throwing the torn garments at his captain, Sakura laughing at his friend's distain.
"Hey," Sakura smiled tenderly at the two men who stared daggers at the other "I made some oatmeal with honey, if you want any." Almost immediately Naruto's eyes brightened at the sound of food and in a moment he was sitting at their table, utensils pointed at the ceiling to express he eagerness of food. The three of them spent the day together, laughing conversing and Naruto attempting to pick names for the Uchicha to be and quietly teasing Sasuke while he helped Sakura move in her disproportionate state.
Who would have thought the ice block would be having a kid… Naruto smiled at the thought almost shaking his head out of disbelief. Though Naruto was happy for his fellow team mates he was not envious of their affection for he had his own women to dote upon. Hinata had grown into a dignified women and with a man like Naruto by her side her strong willed personality seemed to shine and Naruto's weakness became present. He adored her gentle nature and soft voice that reminded him of the flap of butterfly wings and as long as he lived he'd never forget how her mystical blue hair shined in the palest moon. When they were together, that was their favorite pass time, walking through the woods and open meadows the night of a full moon and enveloping each other into their arms and breathing in the others presence. It was a time a peace of Konoha and the weary Ninja who had fought and trained sense they were willing and able greeted it with much enthusiasm, including Naruto and Sasuke but after last night the two comrades knew the air would soon become rancid with blood and again they would be called to the duty they were sworn to.
Naruto's face had grown somber and stern at the thought that ran through his mind, mixed with images of the battle from the night before that had sent them both fleeing for their lives but a quick jab from Sasuke set his senses straight. He quickly looked up into charcoal eyes that swirled with a warning and quickly Naruto changed his tune and smiled through his concern. He knew Sasuke didn't want to tell Sakura about the events that unfolded last night, nor give her chance to ask. She was pregnant and due any day and he knew the last thing Sasuke wanted was her to fall into an early labor due to something he or Sasuke said. Tsuande would be the first to know, regardless of what happened that day.
