Disclaimer: ..What?
Glad I got a good response for the first chapter and so many people are following already, thank you! I love my readers and just knowing you guys are happy with whatever I decide makes me happy. Oh, one request I have to ask of reviewers, please stop comparing this one to the first one. This one is it's own and the old one is it's own. Sorry, but it's been kinda annoying me lately.
(Spanish)Mamita - Mommy.
(1)The abortion situation happened back in high school for Kyuubi and Itachi so it is already known by mostly everyone.
"You're telling me… that's my child?" Sasuke tried to take the news the best way possible, but the hurt and anger that built up inside him was about to burst. "Y-you were pregnant?"
Naruto went back to loading the car with the rest of the groceries. "Yes." He sat a bag of boxed cereals in the van, tone very casual. "But by the time I found out we were broken up," He shrugged one shoulder.
Dark orbs gazed at the child in the car, his heart tight. Beautiful, curly hair.. hair that the boy inherited from him, his father. He was about his skin complexion and now that he examined the child carefully, he had his nose. And weirdly enough, his facial structure and eyebrows. It felt surreal, but he created another person, yet he had no knowledge of it.
Naruto finished and slammed the trunk shut. Turning around, he immediately froze, shocked by the water he saw gathering in the raven's eyes. "S-Sasuke-"
"You had my kid and didn't tell me!" The Uchiha gravely released the explosion of rage as he gripped the blonde up by his shirt, teeth clenched. Naruto shuddered at the fury seen in those eyes, stumbling a little because of the hold Sasuke had on him.
He guiltily looked away. "Get off me."
"You fucking kept my child from me and dare to tell me as if it's nothing!" Sasuke yelled, nostrils flared and red pumping to his face. He had the sudden urge to knock the blonde on his ass, but reframed from doing so. "That is my son!"
"That is my baby!" Naruto retorted awfully, pushing the man off him with force that startled the taller man. Glaring he was about to walk away, until his wrist was roughly grabbed and he looked over his shoulder. "You don't have the right to act like you care when you didn't even care about me, the person who carried your child for nine months!" He seethed dangerously, not giving the man one glance and snatching out of the Uchiha's grasp.
Sasuke stood there, baffled by the hurt expression on Naruto's face. So the dobe still hadn't let it go.
"Let me see him." Sasuke calmly demanded, swallowing his anger. The blue eyed male rolled his eyes and stormed off. "Naruto, let me see my son!" He bellowed threateningly, his voice able to make anyone cower before him.
Naruto momentarily stopped in his tracks, slightly frightened. Ugh, what the fuck was he doing? He was confused with what to do. This was Sasuke and if Sasuke cared anything for his child he'd stop at nothing to have him. He headed to the other side of the car and opened the door, stepping in and sitting with a plop and grunt. "Aki are you all buckled up?"
Aki nodded, kicking his small feet. "Mommy, I want my dinosaur book," His mother reached down and picked up a book off the car floor before passing it back to him. "Thank you!" He grinned happily and his mother smiled softly at him.
Naruto took out his car keys, putting them in the ignition. His hands trembled immensely all the while and his eyes blurred with tears as he stared forward. The hurt look on Sasuke's face yanked a feeling inside him.
He almost hated himself.
Sasuke stepped inside his car and sat down. Furiously, he tossed his bags to the back and pulled the door shut with a slam. The amount of reality that hit him had him shaken up. He had a kid, and there was just this fatherly voice inside telling him that he had to see his boy again. That he had to hold him, that he had to get to know him, that he needed to be a father. No, he wanted to be a father.
Glowering, he gripped the steering wheel so hard his knuckles turned white.
He kept his eyes on Naruto's vehicle. He wouldn't let him see his son, fine. Then he'd just make him. Taking out his car keys, he jammed them in the ignition and started his car up. Soon the blonde pulled off and he stepped on the gas as well. He wasn't letting the Uzumaki get away this time.
(^з^)
Naruto hurriedly got out of his car, walking to the side door and slid it open. Aki had been playing with his toys so he had no idea what was going on. He unbuckled him from his booster seat and Aki got to his feet, outstretching his arms out to his mother. "Mommy, wasn't onii-chan nice?"
Naruto took hold of his son, taking him out of the car and with slight difficulty, pulled the car door shut. "He was a little nice," He murmured to the boy.
"A little? He bought me candy mommy!"
"I know, I know,"
He carried him to the house and when they reached the front step, he put him to the ground. Aki thrusted the front gate of their home open and cheerfully ran through. Naruto fished for his house keys in his shorts pockets and finally found them in the back pocket, approaching the front door. He lived on his own since last year as a way of showing his parents that he could make it without them. That even though he didn't finish high school he could manage a good job and be independent.
Naruto getting the door open, Aki walked inside and kicked off his shoes. "Ah, I'm not hot anymore," He moaned, the AC hitting his skin.
"Hey baby," His son turned to him. "Why don't you go watch Jurassic Park while I make some lunch?" Naruto told him, knowing that was his son's favorite movie. He caught sight of Sasuke following him a while back so he'd probably be here any second.
Aki ran for the stairs. "Okay! Oh, mommy I want grilled cheese!" He stopped on the first step, hand on the banister.
"Anything you want baby," Naruto nodded, taking off his own shoes and Aki cheered, running upstairs. Now to register his thoughts before Sasuke got here.
Suddenly the doorbell rang.
Oh great timing.
Straightening up firmly, he breathed out and ran his fingers through his hair. He walked to the door, hesitantly grasped the knob and pulled it open. Sasuke stood there looking very displeased. "I wasn't running from you. I knew you'd follow me," Naruto informed crudely, hand on his hip.
"You could have invited me over." Sasuke spoke, indifferent, hands pocketed in his cropped jeans.
Naruto shrugged, feigning a smile. "You'd come even if you weren't invited, ne?" He took notice that Sasuke had grown into quite the man in the past four years. He had an erotically, deep voice (not too deep, but not too high either) the perfect tone. His leanly muscular body was much taller and his snow white skin was just as flawless as before, embellished by longer, black hair falling against his face. Snapping out of his daze, their eyes met and Naruto spotted the hint of agitation in onyx ones.
"Come in," He gestured, opening the door wider and Sasuke stepped into the home, murmuring sorry for his intrusion as he did so.
Naruto closed the door whilst Sasuke kicked off his shoes at the entrance. He locked the door and strutted by the man. Dammit. The groceries. He needed to get them out of the car.
Bent down, Sasuke's eyes traveled up and landed on that rather tempting looking ass as Naruto walked. He swallowed hard and forced away unnecessary thoughts. He put his second shoe on the hardwood floor and strolled further into the house, taking a look around. Smooth, beige walls greeted his sight with pictures of family on them and heading down the hallway, he spotted two plants near the living room entrance. The place was clean and neat too, not mention had Naruto's scent all through it. He loved that scent.
Entering the living room, the blonde sat on the sofa and Sasuke made way over to him. "Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?"
Naruto relaxed a little. His knees were shaking. "Why do you care and does it really matter?"
"Hn, he's my son. Yes, it matters. I cared about you… and I would've cared about him if I knew." Sasuke stared down at the Uzumaki bitterly. Naruto seemed so carefree about the whole situation.
"Oh, really? I had no idea," Naruto pointed his finger back and forth. "Did you care before or after you called me a whore to my face?" He skeptically asked, lips pursed.
"Stop it," Sasuke fumed, his narrowed gaze piercing. "How could you be so selfish as to keep this from me? Was this your way of getting back at me? Keeping my child away from me?"
Naruto, pissed off, stood to his feet. "I didn't keep him away from you," He sneered, startling the man by grabbing his hand and he lifted his own shirt, revealing the scar he had from giving birth. He put that strong hand on his abdomen, blue pools boiling as he glared at the raven. "This is proof that I gave birth to our child. You didn't listen to reasoning, remember? You.. were so blinded by your own fury that you threw the both of us away when you lost trust in me."
Sasuke looked up from Naruto's stomach, finally able to see the pain and suffering through Naruto's eyes. "Still, if you told me-"
"What? You're telling me you were ready to be a father at sixteen?" Naruto inquired, stepping closer to the Uchiha. "You would've dropped everything, high school? College? To be a father at sixteen?" Sasuke actually looked stumped by this. What kid would be ready for that? He sure as hell wasn't.
Taking Sasuke's hand off his scarred flesh, tears welled in his eyes. "When I told my mom and papa they were devastated. My father practically disowned me …told me that I was no longer his little boy. That was the first time I saw my papa cry, ya know." Just thinking back to that moment, his heart broke and Sasuke's demeanor weakened. "Two months after w-we had to move because of my papa's work. We were in Spain for a while.. then my grandfather found out I was pregnant, courtesy of my mother,"
"Naruto…"
"He was beyond disappointed and furious.. I was too afraid to even face him. He wanted me to come live with him and guess what?" He cried, tears dripping down his face. "M-my own p-parents sent me away to Italy because they couldn't stand looking at me every day, their baby, pregnant. The only person I had was Kyuu… and he cussed out our parents so awfully that day. In the end he went to Italy with me and we stayed with my grandfather until I gave birth to that beautiful little boy." He laughed lightly, hearing his son stomping and roaring upstairs.
Sasuke heard him too. Warmth spread through him and a small smile pressed on him lips. Even going through all that, Naruto still loved his son more anything. He didn't blame him at all. "Naruto, if you had let me be there.. everything would've been okay-"
"Do you know.. how hard it is to go to school when you have a baby?" Naruto swallowed, his palms clammy and a little sweaty. "Babies want to be held all day, they need to be bathed and fed. So eventually I had to drop out. The first year of motherhood, for me, was kinda miserable. I mean I wasn't miserable that I had Aki. I was miserable because I couldn't sleep when I wanted, I couldn't eat when I wanted, I was tired all the time and to top if off, my parents, even to this day, throw my mistakes in my face."
Sasuke's jaw clenched.
"My life was pretty screwed up for a while, but you.. you wanted to finish high school and go to college. I didn't want to feel responsible for taking that away from you. I wanted you to be happy. I never hated you… I never regretted getting pregnant with your child.. not once, teme." He hadn't meant for that old pet name to leave his mouth, but naturally, it did.
"Naruto," Sasuke reached out his hand. He didn't know what compelled him to, it was just something he needed to do. But, he only harshly got gripped up by the collar in return and drew back.
"So if you ever call me selfish again, I will break every bone in your body, Sasuke," He warned deadly, his tone cutting through Sasuke like a sword would flesh. He furiously pushed the man away and Sasuke's eyes widened. When did Naruto get so strong? "Get out of my house." Naruto ordered, pointing in the direction of the door.
Sasuke scoffed, straightening out his shirt. "You'll allow me to see him?"
"I'll give you a call." He mumbled, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand.
"You don't even have my number."
Naruto sighed annoyingly, a hand on his forehead. "Then give it to me." He mentioned curtly.
Sasuke snorted and held out a hand to the blue eyed male. "Give me your phone, dobe,"
Naruto blushed a little, going in his pocket and taking out his cell phone. He handed it over to the Uchiha and Sasuke entered his number as a contact. Naruto stared at the pale man. Being called by his pet name again was… nice.
"Here." The man gave him back his cell. "Does he at least know about me?" Sasuke questioned, a brow arched.
Naruto briefly shook his head, gaze lowered. "No. …But I'll tell him." He assured kindly. "Just give me some time… to.." Naruto used his hand to sweep blonde hair from his face and right then, in one swift step, Sasuke wrapped his arms around him. Eyes wide, he was stricken with disbelief.
It seemed the blonde needed a hug, so the Uchiha embraced him. Yes, he was still very angry with Naruto for not telling him he had a child, but he still cared for him. He never wanted to see him hurting this way. In the mind frame of a kid, Naruto thought he did what was best for the both of them and he could understand that. What kid knows how to deal with so much at once? And that's exactly what Naruto had been when he got pregnant. A kid. A kid that got no comfort from the ones he should have.
Naruto rested his chin on the taller man's shoulder, returning the hug. "Teme.."
"Dobe, everything's fine now. I'm not going anywhere," Sasuke achingly whispered, tightening his embrace.
"...He has an obsession with dinosaurs,"
Sasuke let out a haughty chuckle. "More proof that he's mines I guess," He didn't know if he heard right, but he thought he heard the cutest giggle come from Naruto. He was glad he could still make him laugh. Sasuke unexpectedly felt a rub against his ankle and glimpsed down to find cute eyes looking up at him curiously.
Naruto grinned, letting go of the Uchiha and kneeled. "Beli!" He cooed, scooping the kitten up in his arms and Sasuke quirked a brow. Naruto made kissy noises, stroking her soft, light orange and snow white white fur and the kitten purred, meowing. "My adorable little Beli,"
"Short for?" Sasuke had to admit the cat was adorable.
"Belina. I might as well introduce you two. Beli, this is Sasuke,"
Sasuke let himself be strangely subdued to petting the cat. "What breed is she?"
"A Scottish Fold."
"I have a child."
"Excuse me?" His mother tilted her head, not sure if she heard her son right.
His father, bewildered, blinked.
His older brother, Kagami Uchiha, dropped his fork and the expensive silverware hit the mansion table sharply. Even the servants had looks of confusion at the bombshell news.
"Hn, someone still hasn't learned tact." The oldest of the three brothers, Itachi Uchiha, simply stated, chewing on his dinner. So that's what his brother seemed to be in such a daze about? Interesting. "I don't think everyone heard you correctly, Otouto," Yes, he was enjoying the expression on his everyone's face to the upmost.
Setting his fork down, Sasuke looked at his family stoically. "Mother, father, I have a son." He announced more firmly and the silence swallowing the room happened to broken by one of the servants letting out an awkward cough. "I found out today. You see I ran into Naruto Uzumaki, he bore my first son, though, I had no knowledge of this."
Kagami gawked, needing a drink of water and went to grab his glass, putting it to his lips.
Itachi let out a humorous, yet, low laugh.
Sasuke glared. That asshole.
Mikoto instantly jumped to her feet, wide eyed. "Y-you have a son? With… Naruto-kun?" Her son gave her a nod and she settled back to her seat, shockingly. "Oh wow." She was speechless.
Fugaku cleared his throat, breathing out calmly and gestured for one of the servants to pour him a drink, one did, bowing respectfully. Wine. He needed to process this in the easiest way possible. His youngest just told him he had a child and he wasn't even married yet. In fact, the boy was still in university. Taking a sip of wine from his glass, he finally asked, "And what is it you did, Sasuke?"
Sasuke sighed in relief that his father was taking this so… normally. "I talked to Naruto and he agreed to let me be in my son's life." He responded, smiling proudly. "I'll be bringing him to see everyone soon." He added, going back to eating (as if everything was fine and dandy.) His mother's eyes widened.
Didn't this boy understand that he has a child and that his life was about to change drastically. Aside from that, Mikoto slowly brought a manicured hand to her lips, overwhelmed and started crying out of sheer happiness.
"Aw, Sasuke, you made mother cry! How could you?" Kagami scolded, scooting back in his seat and standing to his feet before he rushed to his mother. "Aw, ma, don't cry. He's an idiot, I know." Kagami rubbed his mother's shoulders and their father pinched the bridge of his nose.
He very well knew the difference between his wife's disappointed cry and happy cry.
"No, it's not that, sweetie. I have a grandson!" She gleamed, cheeks flushed pink as she cried and Kagami's eyes bugged out dumbly.
She happened to be ecstatic!
Wiping his mouth with a napkin gracefully, Itachi rolled his eyes at the situation and, hands on the table as he slid his seat back, got to his feet. Clad in pants and a dress shirt, he bowed to his father. "I'll be heading off to bed now, father, good night."
Fugaku nodded, finding his son's behavior odd.
Sasuke took a look at his gold wrist watch. "I should be getting home, I have classes early." He commented more to himself.
"No!" Mikoto shot out of her chair and over to him, leaving Kagami and her husband baffled. "You just told me wonderful news honey. I've wanted my boys to give me grandchildren before old age and you've done that. Please stay the night here and let's talk, alright? What does he like, huh?" She joyously clasped her hands together.
"Dinosaurs." Sasuke drank from his glass of water impassively. He wasn't showing it, but he was smiling in his mind. To actually know something about his son warmed him to no end.
"Oh! I have to buy some toys then! Sasu-chan you loved dinosaurs as well!"
Kagami sauntered by his little brother and mother, scowling. "Maybe I should knock someone up," He remarked slyly, arms across his chest. Out of nowhere he sensed his back burning and craned his neck only to see his father daggering him. "I-I am suddenly very tired, goodnight, father," Frightened, he laughed nervously and bowed, heading out the dining room quickly.
"Does he have your hair color?"
"Yes, mother."
"Ha! Of course! The Uchiha color is always dominant!" She squealed loudly, her long hair swaying as she shook her head.
Ah, so peaceful.
Showered and dressed the next morning, Sasuke was seated at the dining table alone, the sun lighting the room just right. He sipped on a refreshing, steaming mug of coffee (that a maid prepared for him) while flipping through the newest issue of one of the most famous magazines in Toyko and sighed deeply. His brother was in it again.
Itachi Uchiha seems to be on again with his ex-girlfriend, Viola Hamasaki. Everyone should've seen this train coming from a mile away. Sorry ladies, he is taken, once again.
Under that was a picture of his big brother hugged up with some brunette, hazel eyed beauty. What was her name again? He did just read it a second ago. Fuck it. He didn't give two shits about who his brother was in a relationship with. He tiredly groaned and flipped to the next page. His brother honestly played around too damn much.
Basking in the wonderful silence of his me time, he smiled to himself, thinking of his little boy. However, his mood was destroyed and his silence broke by the sound of his older brother yawning. He watched Itachi take a seat at the table with a mug of coffee he got from the kitchen in his hand, dressed for the day.
His long hair in a ponytail at his neck, he moved some hair away from his perfect face. "Otouto, you have a child, right? Shouldn't you be going to see him as of now?" He mentioned, only to taunt him.
Sasuke didn't give his brother a single glance. "Hn, maybe I will. At least I know mines is alive and well." He shot back, just as crude, bringing the mug to his lips and taking a sip of his coffee.
Itachi stiffened, a vein twitching at the statement. His little brother always knew how to push his buttons and he hated himself for always letting it rile him up. "Otouto, I would watch your words with me." He frowned.
The younger raven scoffed, giving a brief shake of his head. "Did I strike a nerve?" Sasuke closed the magazine, his morning ruined because of his big brother. "Aren't you tired of fooling around, Nii-san? Do you feel nothing about the fact that you played around with someone so badly they aborted your child?" He stood to his feet and stalked towards his brother's end of the table and Itachi got up, infuriated. Their eyes meeting, Sasuke stepped to his brother, their faces merely inches apart.
"I respect you as my brother, but as a person," His brother stayed impassive as he spoke. "You disgust me." He leisurely finished, wanting the words to eat away at his brother's soul and bumping his shoulder on the way out. He pondered how his brother was still so callous after what he did to Naruto's brother.
Itachi snorted and Sasuke's opinion of him was easily brushed off. "I love you too, Otouto," He smugly mumbled. He really wasn't a person to care what others thought of him.
"Excuse me, Itachi-sama," Said man turned to look at the servant who entered the dining room and the young man bowed respectfully. "You have a guest, uh, Viola-san?" The servant reported, unsure if his master had invited her here.
"Ah, yes," The Uchiha smiled and turned on his heels, leaving the dining room. He made his way into the hallway of the mansion, turned the corner and his slipper clad feet walked on polished floors. He saw his girlfriend standing by the grand, spiral staircase, admiring the framed paintings on the high walls, her hands behind her back.
The young woman hummed sweetly to herself, her long brunette hair draping over one shoulder. Long lashes defined bright, hazel eyes and she had a soft smile on her face, her body slim, but satisfyingly curvy. Startled by the strong arms she felt wrap around her, she jumped and then looked out the corner of her eye. "Itachi, a hello would be nice," She turned in his hold, facing him.
"Hello,"
"Baka…"
Itachi leaned down and kissed her. She kissed him back, blush on her cheeks and then pulled away. "Let's go to your room," She took him by the hand and he nodded in agreement, allowing her to lead him up the spiral staircase. As they walked, she was telling him about the dinner she had with her brother last night.
The Uchiha could care less.
"Is that a new dress?" He assumed.
His girlfriend looked back at him, the mini dress snug on her frame. "Yes. I bought it for you, red is your favorite color."
Suddenly stopping on the staircase, he grabbed her by the waist, forcing her to face him and took hold of her jaw before capturing his girlfriend in a more demanding kiss. She felt his tongue plunge into her small cavern and gasped after he backed her up against the banister, his knee between her thighs. His smoldering hands caressed her body, pulling her closer by her lower back and his other hand ran up her thigh, raising the hem of her dress.
"-Itachi… ah, wait, we're on the stairs," She protested weakly, panting.
Itachi smirked, nibbling at her ear. "Then I suggest you get to my bedroom before I take you right here," He growled teasingly, tugging the lobe between his teeth.
Quickly, she slipped away from him and headed up the stairs at a faster pace.
(^з^)
"Breakfast is served baby," Naruto, wearing a pair of black pajama shorts and tank, grinned, placing the last dish on the kitchen table. Aki hugged his stuffed dinosaur and his blue eyes beamed at the meal in front of him, but then he sourly frowned.
Naruto took a seat, setting a small bowl of milk down on the floor beside his foot and picked up the big spoon, ready to make his son a plate. It wasn't long before he heard lapping at the milk, meaning Belina joined them.
"I can't eat this, mamita," Aki whined, pouting with creased brows.
The blonde cocked a brow. "W-why not? You love Spanish food,"
The boy slumped in his seat. "Mommy I'm a herbivorous, herbivorous don't eat meat," He whimpered strictly, arms across his chest.
Naruto deadpanned, mumbling to himself. "You can't be serious," He witnessed the glare etch onto his child's beautiful face and sighed. "Honey why didn't you tell me you were an herbivorous before I made breakfast?"
Aki jerked forward, as if offended. "Mommy you should know the different roars by now! A herbivorous sounds like rooooooooawr!"
"Okay, Herbivorous, what would you like?" Naruto caved, fed up.
Aki thought for a moment, then finally answered, "Can I have some plants. Maybe a few tree branches and leaves? Oh! That plant we have in the living room will do! I can make a salad!" He exclaimed.
Naruto was seriously trying not to laugh. If he laughed right now Aki would get upset and think he was making fun of him. But exactly how could he take this seriously? "No. You're not eating any plants Herbivorous-san, but I might have something for you," He scooted his chair back and got up, striding over to the fridge.
Aki gleefully grinned. His mother returned to the table after getting some green stuff out of the fridge and slammed it down in front of him.
"Raw broccoli, enjoy." Naruto smiled sweetly, patting his son's head. He watched his son screw his face up, but nonetheless, reach for it and snickered. Aki put the stalk of broccoli to his lips and hesitantly opened his mouth, eyes closed and munched down on it. Naruto let out a laugh as his son chewed, green specks around his lips.
"Mmm, yum, herbivorous-Aki likes," Aki frowned, snatched up a napkin and spit it out into it. "But normal-Aki hates it, I'll be normal Aki today," He pointed to the food he wanted and Naruto nodded, grinning in triumph.
They enjoyed breakfast, Aki talking about the playground and asking when he could start preschool excitedly. Naruto was just left wondering how to tell Aki about Sasuke, his father.
He knew it'd be hard, but he needed to do it soon.
Usami-sensei: Next Sasuke will be introduced to Aki, as his father. You'll find out what happened between SasuNaru soon.
