Baby Trouble
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
--
As always, I woke to the crying baby from the other room. I swear, whatever crude, awful sin I did, this is just too much. Turning, I looked to the door, hearing the soft voice of Shikamaru coming from the room. He may have not been the best singer I've ever heard, but it didn't matter. I saw him come into the living room, Michiru in his arms; smiling down at her and bouncing her, making a small giggle come from her mouth. When he noticed I was awake and watching him, he flustered slightly, looking away.
"You could've told me you were awake you know…" he muttered, setting her down on the play mat that was sprawled out on the floor.
"I know…but it's nicer to watch you," I said. He walked over to me and sat on the floor, letting his head rest on the couch.
"Morning," he said with a yawn, rubbing his eyes cutely. I couldn't help but kiss his forehead.
"Morning, sleepy head," I replied.
"Mama Nedi!" he let an amused grin settle on his face. I glared at the baby a bit, but the hands that were reaching out for me showed it had no effect.
"Mama Nedi!" she repeated. Shikamaru picked her up and brought her to me. I forced myself to sit up and he put her on my lap. She giggled and waved her arms. Sighing, I decided I should get used to it- I mean, who knows when they'll find her parents and-
Shikamaru suppressed a laugh when she tugged on my hair. I glare fiercely at her, but she continued to play with it.
"Get her off me now," I commanded. He nodded and picked her up, putting her back on the play mat.
I took in a breath and strolled into the kitchen, getting out the bottle and milk to put in the microwave and getting out some fish to cook for me and Shikamaru. It wasn't long before I felt his arms wrap round my middle, his head on my shoulder. He kissed my neck and I knew he had shut his eyes, his breathing soft against my cheek and ear.
"How are you?" he asked, making me shiver a little.
"Fine…you?"
"I'm good," he said. The doorbell rang, but he didn't budge. Sighing, I shuffled over, the tanned arms of the Nara never leaving my waist.
I opened the door to see Asuma, Ino and Chouji at the door. Blushing somewhat, I tried to pry Shikamaru from my waist. He didn't move an inch.
"Hey, what are you all doing here?" he asked. Being at the door in my pyjamas; embarrassing much?
"Shikamaru-dono…" I muttered, trying to hide my face. "Let me go…" he ignored me. Of course, when I stepped on his foot rather hard, he took notice.
He let out a yelp of pain and went to nursing his injured foot, letting me go to cook again. Really, he's a pathetic host.
"I heard you got a baby from Tsunade-sama," I heard Asuma say. Of course, he was away on a mission for a while, wasn't he?
"Yeah, she's in the living room, you want to come in?" he asked, holding the door open. The three entered, saying hello to me. I nodded and opened the microwave as it pinged. No way was I going in the same room as that baby while they were here.
"Ah, Shikamaru, her hair's getting darker!" I heard Ino exclaim happily. Only a girl would notice those things.
"It has, hasn't it?" Chouji said. I heard Asuma laugh.
"Wow Shikamaru," I heard his say. "Never thought I'd see you having such a big commitment as this…except Neji of course," I couldn't help but smile at that one.
"Asuma-sensei…" he said. I knew by his tone he was blushing slightly. "Seriously…"
"But it's so cute Shikamaru! You have like…a proper family now!" the girl exclaimed with mirth in her voice. I heard it drop a few for the next sentence. "Now all you guys have to do is get married…"
"I-Ino! Don't ta-talk like that!" he stuttered. I could feel heat coming off my own cheeks.
"Why Shikamaru? Trying to hide something…" I then decided to go through.
"Michiru's bottle!" I said, handing it to Shikamaru. He nodded and took it, not looking at me at all. I wasn't doing much better though. I tried not to look at anyone, but I caught Chouji's eyes accidentally. Why was he looking so…encouraging?
Shikamaru went to Michiru and I made a start to the kitchen to work on the breakfast. I heard Ino giggling while poking Shikamaru a little.
"Mama Nedi!" I froze in my steps. It didn't… "Mama!" my fist rose, veins popping on my forehead and my eyebrow twitching.
"What did she just call you, Neji?" Chouji asked, blinking. I turned and pointed at the baby and Shikamaru.
"If that thing says another thing to me I'll maim it!" I threatened. Shikamaru knew I wasn't joking.
"Come on Neji, it's just a baby!" Ino reasoned, poking Michiru's cheek. "Right, Michi-chan?"
"I don't care!" I countered. "It's not coming near me for the next week!" I stormed back into the kitchen.
--
He really was irrational. Then again, I wouldn't know how to act if it started calling me mama. That would be scary. I looked at Ino as she played with Michiru's hands.
"Say Papa Shika, come on Michi-chan! Pa-Pa, Shi-ka," what was she doing?
"Pa…pa…Shika!" Ino squealed with joy.
"I taught her something!"
"Papa Shika! Mama Nedi!" though, I think she pronounced the 'Shi' on my name as 'See'. Doesn't really work.
"Shikamaru-dono, I'm warning you!" I heard from the kitchen. Curse these walls.
"Ha…sorry…" I said. Ino was smirking when I looked at her. "What?"
"One word Shikamaru: whipped," I heard Chouji and Asuma start to snigger.
"Like hell Ino," I shot back.
She tutted. "Now, now, don't say bad things in front of the baby. Their minds are like sponges."
"Shikamaru-dono, food's ready…" Neji called. Thank you so fucking much.
I saw my team out, Asuma-sensei telling me I could skip training if I wanted to, and sat at the table. I still couldn't look Neji in the eyes.
I glanced at him every now and then to see a relatively irritated look on his face, a tinge of pink staining his cheeks. He did look adorably sexy like that. Oh so adorably sexy…I felt like just walk round and-
"Michiru's crying," he stated. I could tell he had to fight hard to not smirk; cheeky bastard probably knew what I was thinking.
"Right, yeah…the baby," I said. Standing, I walked into the room to see her on the floor, bawling loudly. I cringed and picked her up, nappy soggy and pulling down.
"Neji, she needs her dipper changing!"
"Why can't you learn how to change her?"
"Because…you're so good at it?" he came in, grabbed my collar and dragged me into the bedroom.
"It's really not all that hard," he said, pulling out the mat we had to change her on. I lay her down so her legs were pointing to me; something tells me I can't get out of this one.
Neji set a box next to me and started. "Undo it," he instructed. I did so, though I wish I hadn't. The odour was awful, didn't look nice either. I'm not going to say anymore on the subject.
"Now get a wipe…" I did so. I felt his hand cover mine. "And wipe her clean."
He guided me to do everything, his hand never leaving mine. It felt like a long time, even if it wasn't. I had to remind myself that we'd been together a long time, and that we always had fluffy moments. Though that mightn't be completely true.
"I find it hard to believe you hate babies so much," I admitted.
"You try looking after Hanabi-sama as a baby, you'll get where I'm coming from," he replied. I said I'd rather not.
I put Michiru on her play mat and sat on the couch, Neji just behind me. There wasn't anything really to do today, it was pretty quiet. I watched Michiru as she slowly fell asleep, the sound of her breathing filling the room. I turned to see Neji staring out the window. I poked him.
"What is it?"
"I'm bored…" I stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. I caught the perverted smirk that crossed his face.
"Well, I did get one present I never told you about yesterday…" he said, leaning down to flick his tongue out along my ear. I shivered and felt myself go limp.
"What's that? Kakashi again?" he stood and made his way to the bedroom, telling me to stay were I was. He came back through a moment later and handed me a package. When I opened it I felt blood rushing to my face.
"I dressed as the maid; you can dress as the nurse…"
--
I was sat on the floor, waiting for him in the bathroom. I guess I had the girls to help me put that maid costume on, while he had to do it on his own. Though Kakashi probably put in some instructions on how to do that…I didn't have to wait much longer, as the door opened and I saw Shikamaru standing there, clad in white. He even had the cute little hat. I tried to suppress a nose bleed. He had a look that clearly said 'I can't believe I'm doing this' on his face, accompanied by an embarrassed look. The dress flicked out and stopped just above his thighs, knee socks riding high. I could see the name tag that read 'Shika' on.
"N-Neji-sama…" he started while fidgeting with the hem of the skirt. "Do you need some help?"
Hell yeah. "Come here, I'm getting out the candles," he smirked a little before walking over, holding my hands down to the floor.
"Oh, but it's only right for the patient to let the nurse get the equipment…" he said, grabbing the set of matches and candles from the bedside table. I watched as he lit a match, letting it hover over the candle before a flame came. As it burned he made quick work of my button up pyjama top, pushing his lips against my own and forcing his tongue into my mouth. I pushed back just as hard.
I felt myself get laid onto the floor, my top discarded somewhere close by and I saw Shikamaru getting the candle before tipping it, hot wax making my nipple tingle and harden. He bent down and licked the other a little before tipping more wax onto my chest. I felt my hand twitch a little and my lips were attacked again. I wrapped my arms round his waist and sat up.
I stood, Shikamaru's legs wrapped tightly round my waist and his arms round my neck, fingers running through my hair. I have a feeling that after this, it's going to take me till the afternoon to untangle my hair.
I pushed him down to the bed, reaching into the draw for the nice present from last year and tied Shikamaru's hands to the bed; I smirked at the lustful look that spread onto his face. Haven't gone this far in a while now, have we?
I kissed him forcefully, something that quickly became a hot make-out session. I let my hands fondle with the dress, the skirt riding up his stomach and my hands making the stockings ride down. Moans filled the air as I finally decided to tug the panties down, caressing his butt cheek and exposing his hardness to the air. I smirked against his lips and pulled back a bit, letting my tongue trail round his face, going round his ear getting him to shiver. I let my finger circle his tip before I wrapped my hand around it completely, thrusting up and down. His muscles started to twitch as I got faster, pumping back and forth, back and forth in a rhythm, the beat getting faster and faster and faster.
His loud scream filled my ears as he came, getting cum all over the sheets and the outfit. We laid in silence for a moment or two, the sounds of your laboured breathing surrounding us. Sweat poured off our bodies and the hat had fallen onto the floor at some point.
"Neji, did you leave the candles burning?" he asked between pants.
"No, I blew them out, why?" I wasn't doing very well myself.
"I smell burning."
"You're right…I smell it too…think we're under attack?" I asked.
"I doubt it's that bad Neji."
"You never know."
At that moment, I swore I heard a baby cry.
--
I sprung up and looked down as I saw a flicker of light. There was Michiru, sucking on her red fingers, tears in her brown eyes and her face screwed up, next to her a fire. A small looking fire, but it was growing quickly.
"Crap, it's the sheets!"
"What!"
"The sheets are on fire!" we clambered out of bed and I grabbed Michiru as she started crying. Neji hopped off the other side and ran to me. It was already covering half the bed, why we didn't notice it sooner I don't know.
"Fuck," Neji pushed me out the room quickly to the front door. "Go find someone to help."
"Dressed like this? I think not!" I said motioning down to my attire. The white fabric had cum dripping down it, and one of my stockings was half way down my leg, while the other wasn't. Not to mention I hadn't got the panties on anymore.
Neji took Michiru and ran to the door. "Think of something then, genius!"
I grabbed a pan from the kitchen and filled it with water, running back into the bed room. There was smoke all over, and the fire had consumed the entire bed now. I figured before I threw the pan it wasn't enough. I heard three people run in behind me.
"Michiru's bathtub!" I shouted, throwing the pan of water on anyway. I heard some words being exchanged and soon Neji and Ino came through, carrying a baby bath full of water. It was emptied onto the bed before they went back for more; it still wasn't big enough. I heard Michiru crying for Neji, and the male reluctantly took her off Sakura. While Sakura took over the task of getting the tub filled with water and back, I handed the pan to Ino and she got to work. I went back into the kitchen and sought another pan out.
The fire eventually calmed down a little, but it was still a bit of a mess. The smoke eventually cleared the room and I turned to see two giggling faces.
"Sh-Shikamaru…" Sakura said, tears coming to her eyes from trying to hold back her laughter.
"You're…you're in a-a…" Ino snorted before letting her giggles turn into full blown laughter. "You're in a dress!" she exclaimed.
I felt my face heat up suddenly and I pulled down at the short dress, trying to cover up as much as I could. I looked to find Neji smirking at me, Michiru giggling away.
"And I wonder why she calls me the mother, you're the one in the dress," he sang.
"This is your fault, Hyuuga! I didn't do this because I wanted to!" I snapped back. The girls were trying to calm down, walking out the room. Neji handed Michiru to Sakura and strode over to me, grabbing my chan and smacking our lips together.
"Don't worry," he said, pulling back. I felt his hand on my ass and my blush worsened. "There was a police woman one too…we can always try again, right?"
"I hate you so frigging much right now."
"I know, I love you too!"
--
"Neji, why not make them the same as the last sheets we had?"
"Because, I feel like getting newer, better, nicer sheets. Is that a problem?"
"Yes."
"Go…look after Michiru or something," he did as he was told and turned his attention to the baby. Stupid baby.
I held some sheets up. "How about these?" I asked.
"They're a bit … yellow, aren't they?" I frowned.
"They're not yellow, they're cream."
"Oh, whatever, just get them."
"No, if you don't like them I'll look for something else…" I went to put them back.
"Neji."
"Yes?"
"I like them. Get them, go to the counter, and pay," he ordered, looking rather pissed. I grinned and nodded.
"Yes, Shikamaru-dono…" I muttered.
We soon were walking to a café, Sakura, Ino, Naruto and Chouji all sitting outside, laughing and chatting away to each other. Shikamaru's cheeks flustered somewhat as Ino caught his eyes, waving us over.
"We were just telling Kiba and Chou about the fire," Ino said with a sly grin. Shikamaru's blush worsened.
"You guys never did tell us how it started…" Sakura said. Naruto suppressed his laughter and I could tell that they had been gossiping about Shikamaru's attire earlier.
"Stuff you guys," he said, sitting at a different table. I followed him and sat down as well, watching him play with Michiru with a light blush on his face.
"Papa Shika, Mama Nedi!" we were in public, did this baby not realize?
Naruto heard as they were on the table next to us and turned around to face us. "Looks like all she notices is your long hair and curves, huh Neji?"
"Quiet you," he smirked and turned back round. Shikamaru grinned at me a little.
"He has a point you know."
"Don't you start."
"You're tolerance is becoming less and less."
"Way to point out the obvious."
--
It was times like this that I was most content. Sure, the sex was nice, and the nice long make out sessions, through a bit of teasing in here and there, but the times is was quiet and peaceful. The times everyone but me was asleep. Michiru's breathing filling my ears, Neji lying on the bed still in his clothes; he'd fallen onto the bed and straight to sleep as soon as we got home, I guess the couch isn't a very good bed. I smiled softly and would've moved him and changed him had he not been such a light sleeper. I watched as the soft glow of the sunset flittered into the room through the curtains, basking his face in a warm, yellowish orange glow, the brown in his hair standing out more than usual. Pale, smooth skin illuminated. I leaned over to look into Michiru's cot to see her sleeping peacefully. Now I was looking, her hair was getting darker and redder, freckles starting to show on her soft skin. It was amazing that I hadn't noticed before.
I took in a breath and lay next to Neji, snuggling up to him. It was times like this that I could drop my guard a little bit and just sleep. Our breathing synchronized, our bodies fitting against each other perfectly. I guess this was how you really meditated, just lying here, becoming one with your surroundings. Right now, if Neji's my surroundings, then I'm one with him.

Kitty: IT WENT MUSHY XDDD sorry about the last part if you don't like it. I thought it was cute!
I can't be bothered to go on and on and bore you all to death, so I'll keep it simple at the moment.
Wish me luck. I have to convince my mum not to ban me from writing for the next 8 weeks.
My big GCSEs, exams, all that. She thinks I'm not concentrating enough. Luckily, I have a professional advice from my exam helper to back me up if all else fails. So yeah, wish me luck ..;

"A what?"
"A baby shower, it'll be fun…even if it is at the wrong time!"
"Please, no."
"Why?"
"Shikamaru-dono, I'm home."
"That's why."
