Just Another Love Story

Ch. 4

9 Months Later

Sakura started to slowly walk to Deidara's room while taking in deep breaths. She opened his door and found Deidara asleep on his bed. Since she was, you guessed it, in labor; she was very irritable so she pushed him off of the bed. He instantly woke up.

"Ow, yeah! What was that for, yeah?" Deidara asked as she gritted her teeth. She whimpered and held her stomach.

"Deidara! The baby! The baby's comi-" Sakura started before a huge contraction came. Deidara laid her on the bed and realized he didn't know how to deliver a baby so he got the rest of the Akatsuki. They all stared at Sakura.

"Who knows how to deliver a baby, yeah?" Deidara asked, frantically.

"You guys are idiots," Konan said as she made her way over to Sakura. "OK, when I say push, push as hard as you can," Konan explained. "One…two…Push!" Konan said as Sakura screamed and pushed. Half of the Akatsuki passed out. "Push, again," Konan said. Sakura did and the rest of the Akatsuki passed out.

"How…much…longer?" Sakura asked.

"Just one more big push about…now!" Konan said. Sakura did and Konan was now holding the baby in her arms. "Guys are wimps. No matter what rank they are, they pass out at a delivery," Konan mumbled and Sakura laughed even though she was so tired.

"What's the gender?" Sakura asked, softly.

"Boy…great. More boys around the house," Konan said.

"At least this one can't blow anything up," Sakura said, happily.

"Yet," Konan informed.

"Way to ruin a moment," Sakura mumbled as she took her boy into her arms. At this time, the guys started to wake up.

"About time," Konan whispered.

"What I miss, yeah?" Deidara asked as he awoke.

"Oh I don't know. Just the birth of your first son," Sakura mumbled, sarcastically.

"It's a boy, yeah?" Deidara asked, excited.

"Yes," Sakura answered, irritably.

"What should we name him, yeah?" Deidara asked his lover. Sakura thought for a moment.

"Sou," came her reply. He smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Why won't you rest, Sakura. I'll watch Sou," Deidara said as he picked Sou up and watched Sakura lull into dreamland.

"Well, Sou, it's just you and me, yeah. Now let me tell you how mommy and me met…" Deidara began the long story, not editing it because of its graphics. He kept it just the way it happened. If the child was any older Deidara'd have hell to pay because of everything he kept repeating. Sakura was very scary when angry…

Sakura woke up right when Deidara finished the story. She smiled at him. He smiled back. Then their baby ruined the moment and started crying. No one could blame the kid, though…except Deidara…who only wanted rough sadistic sex. Sakura grabbed Sou and shushed him, rocking him back and forth.

"Hey, Deidara, I was wondering…" Sakura said, nervously as she kept her gaze on her now sleeping baby.

"What, Sakura-chan, yeah?" Deidara urged.

"Um…well…I was….err…I mean…" Sakura couldn't find her words. Deidara sighed.

"Sakura, spit it out, yeah." Deidara said.

"Well…just because we have a kid….does it mean we won't be able to have sadistic sex…Deidara?" Sakura whispered, nervously. He chuckled and she finally looked up at him.

"Sakura, we can have as much sadistic sex as you want…as long as I'm the sadist, yeah. We can ask Sasori-danna to watch Sou for about half an hour or something, yeah," Deidara said and she smiled.

"A half an hour, huh?" Sakura asked.

"It shouldn't take too long, yeah," Deidara said, kissing her passionately on the lips. She smiled at him after the kiss.

"Now?" Sakura asked. He opened his mouth and put a finger in the air as to say one minute and said:

"Except now, yeah."

Her face fell.

"Why?" Sakura whined.

"Because you just gave birth, yeah," Deidara reasoned and she mumbled a few profanities. Sakura then yawned…very tired.

"Deidara, what time is it?" Sakura asked.

"Midnight, yeah," Deidara said.

"Coming to bed? Youdo have a mission tomorrow," Sakura pointed out. She saw Deidara pull his shirt off and drooled at his toned chest. He smirked at her reaction.

"Love you too," Deidara said, mocking her.

She 'hmphed and went back to rocking her baby so he wouldn't wake up. She took a side glance at him to see that he'd removed his pants and was now in his boxers. He scooted her over and lay down next to his lover and held her and his newborn son in a protective hug as they all went to sleep.

It was midnight and both parents woke up to a crying Sou. Sakura started to rock him but he wouldn't stop crying. Deidara grabbed Sou and stood up while walking around the room and rocking him. He eventually stopped crying and fell back asleep.

"Thank you," Sakura mumbled as she rolled over and fell back asleep. Deidara crawled back into bed with Sou and looked at him for a while before going to sleep so he'd be well rested for the mission.

Sakura was gently nudged awake. She groaned and looked at whoever was waking her.

"Sakura, honey, I have to go on the mission now and Sou is hungry, yeah," Deidara said.

"What time is it?" Sakura asked, still waking up.

"Five in the morning, yeah," Deidara replied.

"You have to leave now?" Sakura whined in her half asleep state.

"Yes, sweetheart and you have to feed Sou," Deidara said, rubbing her back some. She liked what he was doing and rolled onto her stomach, urging him to continue. He chuckled. "You should get up and feed Sou, yeah. When you're up I'll probably be in the kitchen. So we can talk while you're feeding Sou," Deidara said as he walked out of the room.

Sakura groaned and got up. She put a robe on over her pajamas and put her slippers on as she picked Sou up from under his arms. She made baby faces at him and he laughed at his mommy's funny antics.

"How's my baby this morning?" Sakura asked. "Do you want mommy to feed you?" Sakura asked, talking like Tobi, she realized. He giggled in response as she walked out to the kitchen with Sou cradled in her arms. She saw Deidara and Sasori talking at the kitchen table…probably about the mission.

"Hey, sweetheart, yeah," Deidara greeted. She smiled in response. Sasori just nodded to her existence. Sakura sat down and began to breast feed Sou. Both guys were having a hard time not looking up. Sakura rolled her eyes. Sou announced being done and Sakura gently burped him.

"You're surprisingly good at this mother thing, Haruno-san," Sasori complimented. She smiled at it.

"Thank you, Sasori-san," Sakura said. He nodded.

"I knew she'd be a great mom, yeah," Deidara said. Sakura yawned.

"Well…I'm going back to bed. See you later, Deidara-sama," Sakura said as they hugged carefully but tightly so they wouldn't crush their only child.

Deidara gave her a very long and loving kiss on the lips and then kissed his son on the forehead. He and Sasori left after that and Sakura went back to bed with her son, not waking up until he started crying around ten in the morning. Sakura changed his diaper and let him sleep after that. She set up the baby walkie talkie thingies that I can't remember what they're called and kept one on her person while the other was next to her son. She walked out to talk with everyone else.

Over the months they all had become closer. Sakura and Konan would borrow clothes from each other and the others would talk about interesting topics with her. Itachi and she talked about genjutsus and the most interesting one which in the end they both agreed on Mongekyo. Kisame and she talked about sake and he dared her to drink with him but she said no since she was 'with child.' Tobi and she talked about kid movies like Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and a show called Bob, the Builder. Apparently, he taught her something for when her son was growing up. She was grateful too. Hidan and her talked about the many forms and uses for cusswords and even had cussing battles that she won because she was pretty darn scary being pregnant and all…not to mention her inhuman strength. Kakazu and she talked about how much they'd spend on the baby per year and prior to its birth. He was so stingy with money. Pein and she talked about Grey's Anatomy because it was like their favorite show in the whole world. Sasori and she had talked about saving money for Kakazu so he wouldn't have a heart attack with how much a baby needed by him making the baby a crib. And that's basically how the months dragged on.

"Hey," Konan said with a smile as she sat on the couch next to Sakura.

"Oh, hey, Konan-chan," Sakura said.

"Are you already missing Deidara?" Konan asked.

"Yeah…it's just…not the same without him," Sakura admitted. Konan sighed.

"You mean less noisy and chaotic?" Konan asked, sarcastically. Sakura faked a laugh.

Then Sakura heard a cry coming from the baby walkie talkie thingy. Sakura pressed the button on it and started to sing a lullaby so her son would go back to sleep. She heard a cooing noise and then nothing.

"So that's how you use those things," Kisame said from the doorway. Sakura took her finger off of the button and looked at Kisame.

"Yeah…very helpful, don't you think?" Sakura asked.

"I guess. So how is the little tyke?" Kisame asked.

"Good…I guess. He's cute," Sakura said.

"Yeah…haven't seen him that much," Kisame said, shrugging. Sakura rolled her eyes.

"Do you know when Deidara and Sasori are due back?" Sakura asked.

"Not a clue," Kisame said as Pein came into the room.

"Kisame, go get your partner and get ready for mission details," Pein said, quickly.

"But didn't you say we have the week off?" Kisame questioned. Pein sighed. He wasn't up for this. Usually he would've punched Kisame through a wall for questioning his authority but really just wanted this over with.

"Go get Itachi. Now," Pein commanded and Kisame obeyed, coming back a few minutes later with Itachi. "Sakura, you may want to leave," Pein said.

"With all due respect I think whatever you have to say I can handle," Sakura said.

"Very well...Itachi, Kisame, you are to go on a recon mission," Pein started out.

"What for?" Itachi asked. Everyone was shocked since he usually didn't talk much less question something.

"Sasori and Deidara aren't answering via telepathy. I want you to go find out what has happened to them," Pein said. Sakura's breath caught in her throat. Something happen to Deidara? Impossible! No one could kill two highly ranked S-class criminals in the Akatsuki! That's just unheard of!

"Yes, sir," the chorused. Sakura grabbed onto the table, afraid of falling. The next thing she heard was someone screaming her name and then nothing. Only black. With a splash of…red.

"Sakura…Sakura…" a voice said. Sakura groaned and opened her eyes. She couldn't see anything.

"Wh-Who's there?" Sakura asked as she started to stand up but found that she couldn't.

"Sakura, what are you doing here?" the voice said again.

"I could ask you the same thing," Sakura shot back.

"You shouldn't be here," the voice said.

"Where?" Sakura asked getting very annoyed.

"Where do you think?" the voice asked. Sakura swore she's heard that voice somewhere before.

"How did I get here?" Sakura croaked out, afraid of the answer.

"You hit your head on the table, Sakura," the voice said. Sakura saw a blinding light and covered her eyes. Sakura looked again but the light was still too much.

"Who are you?" Sakura asked but found that her voice was no more than a whisper. The next thing she heard was a loud chain saw like noise. She screamed…loudly.

"Sakura, you need to go back. Your life's not over yet," the voice said.

"How? How do I go back?" Sakura asked.

"Your heart is the key," the voice said. Sakura looked towards the light and gasped.

"You're…you're-"

Hello people! Sorry, I just had tohave a cliffhanger! I know it sounds a little odd...considering that she just fell...but I had to put some drama in here! I love you all!
