Chapter 2

Naruto sat there frozen, "Are you serious?" he asked hoping Neji was joking, Gaara and Neji shook they're heads, "I'm sorry Naruto I was there and I saw it happen" Gaara said trying to convince the blonde.

Naruto sighed, "Well this sucks and I was just about to ask her out…" Naruto groaned, "I knew I shouldn't have waited" Naruto said hitting his forehead. Neji sighed, "Um, Naruto" Gaara said in worry, "Yeah," Gaara looked up at him, "You said you rushed over here with Kiba…" Naruto blinked.

"Yeah that's what I did," Naruto nodded, "what exactly did you do with my children?" Gaara asked his eye twitching; Neji and Kiba went wide eyed and looked at Naruto.

Naruto scratched his head, "Hmmm, what did I do with them?" Naruto questioned himself, Gaara's grip on the table tightened and broke a piece off, Neji and Kiba gulped and looked at each other. "Oh that's right Sakura and Hinata came by and took them" Naruto smiled nodding his head.

Gaara, Neji, and Kiba all let out a deep breathe, "How are they anyway?" Kiba asked, Gaara sighed "They're good, Ryoku is just as energetic and annoying as his mother, but then again he defiantly got his anger from me and then he got the ability to control sand…it's like he's always finding new ways to annoy me" Gaara said.

Kiba laughed, "Welcome to parent and husband hood Gaara" Gaara shook his head, "Kiba you have a four year old and a three year old, what's to expect?" he asked, Kiba smirked "It just gets worse and worse and considering you have anger management and Ryoku sounds like a little of both you and Sakura" Kiba said thinking.

"Yeah, you'd be better of shooting yourself right now" Kiba laughed, "can we please stop talking about children I'm still trying to get over the fact my cousin is going to be my wife" Neji said angrily.

"Sorry Neji" Gaara and Kiba apologized, "all right Gaara you and Sakura are pretty much opposites right, but how do you know make her happy and get along?" Neji pondered.

Gaara sighed, "Well Neji I'm not going to lie to you, one of the key ingredients to a good marriage is…a good as hell sex life" Gaara said crossing his arms over his chest. "Really…?" Neji said, "Are you sure?" he asked.

"Neji I have been married to Sakura for five years, believe me I know what I'm talking about and then the rest we'll when Sakura's mad at me I'll go out and buy her diamonds or something, one time I went all the way to Konoha and bought a bouquet of cherry blossoms for her" Gaara said.

"Women go for that sappy lovey dovey stuff, you just need to know the woman you're dealing with" he said picking up his sake and sipping it. Kiba nodded "and for us normal guys who can't buy everything they want, I take Ino out if she's mad or down and but her lilacs"

Neji nodded, "Thanks, so Kiba do you know what Hinata's favorite flower is?" "Lilies" they heard Naruto say, they all looked at him, "her favorite flowers are lilies" he said again

They all fell silent, "thanks Naruto, I'm going to head out now guys" Neji said sadly getting up and walking out. Gaara and Kiba sighed and looked at Naruto, "I'll be fine" Naruto said.

Neji walked down the streets, he sighed and looked up at the Yamanaka flower shop, he walked in the small bell rang, he looked around 'I don't even know what lilies look like' Neji said in his head.

"Hello, my I…oh hi Neji" Ino smiled as she came from the back with a blonde girl following her, "hello Tsubame" Neji said trying to sound happy, "hi Neji-kun!" she yelled hugging him, Ino laughed, "she won't stop talking about you I think she has a little crush" Ino giggled.

Neji smiled and looked down at the little blonde, "Well that's just too bad because I'm getting married soon," Neji sighed. "Really to whom?" Ino smiled, "Hinata" Neji said quickly, Ino looked at him, "did you say Hinata?" she asked.

He nodded, "but-yes yes I know we're cousins but Hiashi said we have to keep my powerful Byakugan in the clan," Neji sighed. Ino nodded, "I see well can I help you with something of did you just come to stop by?" Ino wondered.

"Well I was wondering if you could get my some lilies, for Hinata" Neji said, "Of course I can" Ino said happily searching her flowers, "here we go," she said grabbing 12, she walked back to the counter and wrapped them in a beautiful blue, "here we go its on me" Ino smiled.

"Thank you," said turning to leave, "Oh and Neji if you see that good for nothing husband of mine, could you please tell him to come get Sanosuke, I can't work and watch a three year old that's just like him" Ino sighed. "I'll be sure to tell Kiba," Neji smiled and walked out.

-

"You're marrying Neji?" Tenten said shocked, Hinata nodded "didn't see that coming," she said sipping her tea. Sakura huffed; "Yea like everybody saw you and Lee getting married" Sakura smirked.

"You're one to talk, Sabaku no Gaara, didn't he try to kill you way back win, old lady" Tenten stuck her tongue out. Sakura's eye twitched "you're older then me, beside just because I have children does not make me old" Sakura stated crossing her arms.

"Then what does it make you?" Tenten asked raising an eyebrow, "I simply have a better sex life then you, I bet you and Lee maybe fuck once every two weeks while Gaara and I well we fuck every night, in exception to when I was pregnant" Sakura laughed.

Tenten rolled her eyes, "at least Lee's more romantic then Gaara," Sakura spit out her water laughing, "I don't think so, Gaara buys me roses and diamonds every week telling me how special I am to him, his 'precious desert rose'" Sakura smiled hearts in her eyes.

"I couldn't wish for a more romantic, strong, over protective, psycho husband" Sakura said dreamily, Tenten and Hinata giggled together, "perfect for each other right Hinata strong, over protective, and psycho especially" Tenten laughed. Hinata giggled as they notice Sakura steaming.

Hinata sighed "I guess it wouldn't be too bad to marry Neji-san, he's nice, strong, and loyal" Hinata said trying to stay positive. Sakura eyed her, "I didn't know better I would say you had a crush on your cousin" Sakura laughed.

Hinata blushed madly "I do not I was just saying that I wouldn't mind marrying him and it's not that bad" Hinata said flustered at the thought of her having a crush on Neji. Sakura laughed "chill out Hinata I said if I didn't know you and I know you very well, but what are you going to do when you know…it comes time to make babies"

Hinata went wide eyed, she had never thought of that, the very thought scared her to death…her and Neji having gulp sex. "Hinata are you ok?" Tenten asked waving a hand in front of her face.

'Would it be enjoyable or maybe painful emotionally, would I call out his name in pleasure' Hinata shook theses thoughts from her head, "Well it's getting late, Sakura and I should go" Hinata said. She picked up Ryoku who was in the chair beside her and Sakura got Rikou, "bye Tenten" the both waved and headed out.

As they got back to the estate some lead Sakura to her room that Gaara was already in, Hinata smiled "good night" she said, "night" Sakura said back as she carried the two sleeping children down the hall. Hinata went and sat out in the court yard, she looked in the small pond and sighed, "Um, Hinata" she heard and turned around to see Neji.

"I got these for you" he said averting her and handing her the lilies, Hinata smiled "thank you Neji-san" Hinata smiled looking at the beautiful flowers, she grabbed his hand. "Please help me put these in some water" she said happily, Neji smiled and followed her.

Hinata opened the wrapping and laid them all out on the counter, she grabbed some scissors and began cutting at the bottoms diagonally, "Neji-danna, could you please find a vase," Hinata instructed.

He stared at her for a moment, "Danna?" he asked, "well we are going to be married soon aren't we?" Hinata said looking back at him, he smiled "right Hinata-fujoshi" he said back looking for the vase.

"Here," he said placing it beside her, Hinata took it and filled it with water, she grabbed the flowers and out them in one at a time, "there" she smiled, "beautiful" she said happily. "Now where to put it Danna?" Hinata said asking Neji, "how about in the front room?" Neji said after awhile, "perfect" her voice chimed.

Neji walked Hinata to her room after they placed the flowers in the front room, "Night Hinata" Neji said opening her door for her. Hinata smiled "thank you Neji and for the flowers they were beautiful," she said.

They stood there for a second when Hinata leaned and quickly kissed him on the cheek, she was completely red, "well good night Neji" she said shutting her door, Neji blinked and then blinked again. "That freakish felt really good," he said to himself before walking to his own room.

-

Sakura sat up and yawned, she looked at the clock '3 am' she groaned and looked beside her at the shirtless sleeping Gaara; Sakura smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

She stood up, "I'm really thirsty" she told herself, she walked out of the room and into the courtyard. Sakura stopped and looked around "who's there?" she whispered and reached for her kunai, when she realized it was gone, Sakura mentally slapped herself in the face.

Someone jumped in front of her and held her by her arms, "well, well Sakura what are you doing here?" a voice asked as she starred into crimson eyes, "Sasuke" Sakura glared. "I really didn't expect you to be here, I was coming for the Hyuuga girl" he smirked, Sakura laughed "sure"

"Don't give yourself to much credit Sakura I came after you to revive my clan but you were already married and none the less had that year old abomination" he seethed. "Ryoku is not an abomination" Sakura said hatefully, "anyways you had your chance Sakura" Sasuke cackled.

Sakura thought for a second, "Oh but Sasuke didn't you hear I was going to leave Gaara because my feeling for you were revived I want to help restore you clan right here…right now" she lied wrapping her arms around his waist and drawing designs on his back.

"Is that so Blossom?" he smirked grabbing one of her breasts, "Sasuke" she said lustfully pressing herself against him, but using one of her hands to grab all his kunai from his holster. Sakura successfully grabbed all of them and moved back a little, "just let me get rid of these clothes" Sakura said huskily.

Sakura smirked and kicked Sasuke in the groin and then kicked him far off, throwing the kunai after him. "Sakura laughed "You idiotic bastard!" Sakura laughed harder, "like I would leave Gaara for anyone, none the less you!" she smirked.

"Sakura are you ok?" Neji's voice was heard she turned around and saw Neji in his night kimono, she looked back at where Sasuke was but he was gone "I'm fine," she said walking up to him. "But Neji, watch Hinata closely" Sakura said very serious, Neji stared after her as she went to the kitchen.

"Got it" he whispered and went back to his room, Sakura walked back to her room and opened the door quietly and walked back in with her glass of water. She looked at the bed and Gaara was gone, she looked around but then felt strong hands wrap around her waist.

"That was a sly move you pulled on that bastard, a little to sly" he said whispering into her ear, Sakura turned to him, "Gaara it was the only way to get a weapon and if you were watching the whole time, like I know you were, then you know I love you and only you" she assured.

"I know" he said kissing her forehead, she smiled "now I'm tired so lets get back to bed," Sakura thought about Hinata and then what Sasuke said, she would have to keep a close eye Hinata for awhile and with that she went to sleep.
