Chapter Two: The Gender Reveal Party
As soon as Sasuke, Sakura, and Sachi got back home they started decorating their house for the party. A little bit later on the doorbell rang. "I'll get it!" Sachi cried before she quickly hurried over to the door and after looking through the peephole she saw that it was Kakashi, Kizashi, and Ami. As soon as she opened the door a huge grin grew on Ami's face revealing her one and only tooth.
"Hey Sachi." Kizashi said before wrapping his arms around her and embracing her tightly.
"Hey Kizashi, thank you for coming to our party." She told him.
"You're welcome, why wouldn't I come?" he wondered before he let go of her and grinned. "I can't wait to find out what gender the baby is going to be." He said while Kakashi carried Ami through the doorway and Kizashi followed them inside. "Oh and by the way, Dad got a new dog." He began. "And I don't mean a ninja hound, I'm just talking about a regular old dog for a companion." He told her.
"Really?" Sachi questioned him. "What kind of a dog is it?" she wondered.
"Well,.. it's sort of a mutt and a mix of all different kinds of breeds." He began. "He's mostly white with a bit of brown on him and a black spot on his back near the tail area." He explained.
"What's his name?" she asked him.
"Spot." He replied with a grin as Sachi giggled.
"Ah, I see." She began. "It sounds like his name suits him." She finished while grinning back at him. "I sure hope that he gets along with Ami." She added.
"Are you kidding? The two of them are already inseparable." Kakashi said while Sasuke and Sakura walked over to them and Ami's face suddenly lit up as she saw her godparents.
"There's my favorite goddaughter." Sakura began while she picked her up and kissed her cheek and she squealed excitedly.
Kakashi grinned. "Well it looks like somebody is sure happy to see you." He said.
"Is she talking yet?" Sasuke wondered while grinning back over at him.
"Baba!" Ami cried while Kakashi glanced over at her.
"Oh yeah, sure she's talking. She's been talking for months. It's just not in Japanese yet." He said.
"Well come on in and sit down. Naruto and the others should be here soon. I'll take the gifts and Sakura will take your coats. And Kizashi you and Sachi can go play together while we're waiting for the rest of the guests to arrive." Sasuke said when all of a sudden Ami began to cry.
"Uh oh,.. looks like n-a-p time." Kakashi said while taking his daughter inside of his arms and gently rocking her back and forth and bouncing her up and down before placing her pacifier inside her mouth.
"Well luckily the nursery is still back there for her to sleep. And that way we can still use it after the baby comes." Sasuke said.
"Thanks, and I don't suppose that you still have teething rings around here do you because I accidentally left hers back at home." Kakashi told him.
"No I don't, but I'll go ahead and text my mother in-law and ask her to pickup one on her way here." He said while Kakashi started carrying Ami down the hallway.
…..
About half an hour later Naruto, Hinata, Keiko, and her mother showed up. Then about ten minutes later Konohamaru and Saki showed up. Finally when everybody was there they all sat down at the dinner table. Ami had just woken up from her nap and after changing her diaper Kakashi brought her into the kitchen and then sat her down inside her highchair and tied a bib around her neck.
"Alright everybody," Sasuke began while he got to his feet. "This is how things are going to work. First of all Sakura's going to lead us in grace and then after supper all of the children will be receiving a special cupcake. If there is blue filling on the inside of it then the newest Uchiha will be a boy, however if there is pink filling on the inside of it then it will be a girl." He explained.
"Duh!" Keiko exclaimed with a roll of her eyes. "We're not in kindergarten I think that's easy enough for us to understand." She said before Sasuke just simply heaved a sigh and shook his head.
"Okay, everybody except for Ami stand up and grab ahold of somebody's hand." He instructed before everybody stood up and took ahold of each other's hands. After that they closed their eyes and bowed their heads.
"Dear Lord, we just wanted to thank you for bringing us together tonight as a family in celebration of the new little life that is about to enter the world. For let us always remember that only you can create new life and the only chance that we have at an eternal life with you is through your Son Jesus Christ. Bless this meal that we are about to receive and the hands that helped prepare it. Amen." Sakura said.
"Amen!" everybody else echoed before they all sat down to eat.
"Can Ami have pizza yet?" Sakura wondered.
"As long as its cut into small enough pieces she can." Kakashi replied before suddenly Ami began to cry again and he heaved a light sigh. "Well,.. she's either hungry or her tooth is bothering her again." He said before she placed her fists inside her mouth and started sucking on it and drooling all over it.
"Well it might be both but teething looks like the biggest problem." Sasuke said. "The ice cream that we have along with the cupcakes for dessert should help that."
"Yes, but she's got to eat most of her dinner first." Kakashi said while grabbing a piece of pepperoni pizza and beginning to cut it up for her.
"Is she still a picky eater then?" Sakura wondered.
"Yes, but she's gotten a lot better about that." He told her.
After supper Sasuke presented Sachi, Keiko, Kizashi, Saki, Konohamaru and Ami with a cupcake and grinned. "Alright guys, this is the big reveal moment that we all have been waiting for and of this group, Kizashi I think that you're the only one who thinks it will be a boy." He said.
"We haven't asked Ami yet though." Keiko pointed out.
"Honey we can't ask Ami because she can't talk yet." Sasuke told her.
"Maybe not like we can, but that doesn't mean that she still can't communicate with us." She said before she turned and looked at Ami who smiled back at her. "Ami, do you think the new baby will be a girl like me and you, or a boy like Kizashi and Konohamaru?" she questioned before Ami pointed over at her. "There, see? Ami thinks that it will be a girl too." She said.
"Keiko, Ami usually points at whoever is speaking to her. It was probably just a coincidence." Kakashi said.
"Oh really? Then let's open our cupcakes and find out." Keiko said while she took off her piece of paper along with everybody else's and Kakashi helped Ami with hers.
"Here you go sweetheart." He told her while smiling warmly at her before he handed her the cupcake and sticking her face inside of it she took a big bite and a few moments later Kakashi could see pink filling in the middle. Kakashi grinned while Keiko found this out at exactly the same time.
"See?" she began questioningly. "I knew it! I knew Ami was right! It's a girl! I'm going to have a niece of my own just like Sasuke and Sakura!" she cried excitedly.
