Chapter 4- A new Doctor and a new home Part 2

While Deidara kept Carel busy Itachi told Naruto of their problem. "So that's why we need Tsunade's skills. To help Deidara along with his pregnancy." Itachi explained. Naruto looked away out into the garden. There he can see Carel happily chasing Deidara around. He smiled "Guess even bad people have their every day problems" he chuckled

"I can take you there myself tomorrow"

"Naruto"

Naruto look back to Itachi from the garden

"Is he his?" Itachi asked looking seriously at Naruto. Naruto look away from Itachi paying attention to the little boy that reminded him so much of his father.

"Guess there is no denying it huh they look so much alike" he responded warily. "Yes Carel is Sasuke's"

"Does he know" Itachi said pushing at the subject. He only got a nod "Did you ever told him?"

"How am I supposed to tell him? Oh Sasuke guess what you have a son! If our relationship wasn't enough to bring him back then why would telling him he has a child will." Naruto clench his hands on the table "The night he left Konoha was when Carel was conceived. Guess I wasn't enough to keep Sasuke home." Naruto's hand raised and fell quickly wiping his cheek staring at Itachi with anger

"This is your fault." He mumbled in a voice that Itachi strand to hear.

"What?" he asked trying to understand what the blonde said under his voice.

Naruto's head rose sharply with his eyes narrowing at the raven "This is all you fault! If it wasn't for you Sasuke would have stayed with us where he belongs." He yelled. Itachi stared at the fuming blonde in front of him. "I'm Sorry" he apologizes. He didn't argue against that it was his fault that Sasuke leaved behind a promising life to chase him down.

"Sorry? That's all you have to say is sorry? You turned your brother into a revenge seeking monster ruining the life he left behind, destroy our relationship, and the worst of all you left Carel without one of his fathers in his life! You manage to ruin not one but three life's with your actions" Naruto yelled letting out all his frustrations out while Itachi just sat there taking it without one word. His attentions turned when he heard little footsteps from outside the living area. Naruto redirected his attention to Carel who was clinging onto the sliding door way silently letting tears roll down his cheeks. "Papa" he said locking big onyx eyes onto sky blues ones. Naruto rush over to Carel picking him up in his arms comforting him.

"I'll help you with what can for Deidara and the unborn baby's sake. After that I want you to leave." Naruto said coldly over his shoulder to Itachi leaving him alone. Sighing a deep sigh Itachi rose from the low table to look for the older blonde.

"So not only have you destroy one whole clan but you also manage to destroy another family hn" Deidara was sitting on the walkway with his legs hanging over into the backyard. Itachi walked over to him sitting beside him "Sad thing is I didn't even know he exists" He chuckled "Who would have ever thought that foolish brother of mine would have a kid" Deidara looked at the raven as he chuckled more. "Dei" Itachi grabbed the blonde's hand surprising him. "Wah Uchiha you're freaking me out!"

"I'm an uncle and without even knowing it I ruin my nephew's life. What kind of man am I?" Deidara looked at Itachi hunched over he gently pulled his hand away from the other's and patted his back "Normally I'm not the one to comfort others but don't think badly of yourself. Because of you I might have a better chance to bring my child into this world healthy. In my book that's a good man hn" Deidara left not giving Itachi time to reply to find Naruto about his room.

"No I will not"

"Please baa-chan" Tsunade look up to Naruto leaning over on the desk from her paperwork She couldn't believe what he was asking her to do! "Naruto do you hear yourself! You're asking me to help a criminal and not just any criminal but an Akatsuki member. What could they possibly want help with that they need my help" Naruto ease away from the desk "Because he's carrying that's why" Naruto said "Please baa-chan help him" he begged.

'That's not possible' Tsunade thought. Male pregnancy was not a common thing. It surprise her when Naruto was showing signs of being pregnant, but later learned it was the Kuubi's fault that he was carrying and that anybody with the bijuu could carry. But she doesn't ever remembering that any of the Akatsuki was a jinjuraki. Without saying a word she got up heading to the bookcase where she keeps the criminal records. "What's his name?" she asked

"Deidara"

Tsunade turned to Deidara's profile they had on him. Nothing was out of the ordinary hinting he was a carrier. The only information they didn't had on him was his bloodline. "Naruto did he tell you about how he's carrying?" Naruto looked at Tsunade's back dumfounded "Uh…Baa-chan I think we all know how he's carrying" he replied in a matter of fact voice "Bakamono! Not how the child got there! How is it he's able to conceive a child in the first place!" Tsunade yelled throwing the file at Naruto but he dodged it easily. "Oh they said it was his bloodline. That's the reason. All males in his family are born with the ability to carry, but it's their chose if they want to actually carry." He reply

"They? There is more with him?" Tsunade asked. 'Crap' Naruto thought he forgotten to mention that Itachi was here too. "Yeah um just one other is with him."

"And which one of them is it?"

"Itachi" Naruto mumbled rubbing his neck

"Excuse me? Who is with him?" Tsunade asked again. Not hearing Naruto's reply. Before he could answer back the office door opened with Itachi in the door way. "I'm with him" he said

"Uchiha! Guard!" Tsunade yelled. Two anbu appeared beside Itachi grabbing each of his arms. "Baa-chan wait its okay!" Naruto said to Tsunade. Tsunade looked to Naruto her eyes blazing "What makes you think its okay to have him here!"

"Because he came back here to help a friend knowing he's putting himself in danger that's why. If he wanted to do anything he would have from since yesterday when they arrive"

"Yesterday? There was two Akatsuki members here and nobody sense anything! Naruto how do you not know if he's really here for that other member?"

"May I say something hokage-sama." Itachi said calmly both blondes looked to him. He continue not waiting for a reply "I came here only for Deidara's protection and support. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't wanted to come back to this village."

Naruto looked back to Tsunade. Her attention was still on Itachi reading him. "Baa-chan will that convince you enough"

"No it won't. Until I scan Deidara for myself I won't trust neither one of them. Until then I want him in maximum security and the other one to be put under house arrest until tomorrow."

"But…"

"No buts. You are too native Naruto. You have to learn to not trust everybody that comes to you if you want to lead this village right."

'Lead this village?' Itachi thought he looked to Naruto in confusion. Naruto sighed. He looked back to Itachi seeing the confuse expression on his face. "As Hokage in training I command for Itachi Uchiha to be taken to the maximum security hold, until Tsunade decide to release him" Naruto said looking directly to Itachi hoping that would answer his confusion.

The little Sasuke look alike rose from his bed wiping his eyes from the sleep. Peeking out his room he looked down the hall where he heard the crying coming from the guest room.

"Dei-san" he called as he approach the guest room. He pushed the door catching Deidara's attention. "Carel? Sorry did I wake you? HN" he asked wiping his face. Carel nodded "Na I'm used to it."

"Used to it?" Deidara questioned slowly "Yeah papa would cry every night for father to return. Then he would yell "SASUKE YOU TEME!" really loud. Papa wouldn't go back to sleep unless I was there with him." Deidara's shocked expression stayed on the ten year old as he climbed up the bed with him. "So Dei-san why was you crying?" Deidara's expression softens as he pulled his leg up to his chest without crushing his stomach "I had a dream. About the baby's father. We was in an open grassy meadow holding each other next thing I know he was gone. The grassy meadow was covered in blood and the sky turned to a crimson color. I called for him looking for him but he didn't answer. I found him but he was covered in blood not moving. I tried to wake him but he just wouldn't wake up. I tried but Danna wouldn't wake" by now Deidara was crying into his knees. Carel patted his blonde hair. "Dei-san it will be okay. Don't worry everything would be okay as long as Uncle Ichi and you are together." "What? Oh no Carel Itachi is not the father HN." Deidara raise his head realizing what the boy was saying. Carel looked at Deidara confused "But I thought…Oh you had an affair and now your pregnant with somebody else's child! Don't worry I won't tell" Carel rambled on. "What!" Deidara said shocked again for the second time of what this child was saying "Where did you get that idea! hn"

"From Grandpa Jiraya Whenever papa would go away for long training he always takes me and Grandpa would always read me stories of men and women in those situations and other stuff." Carel explained with a smile. Deidara shook his head. He heard of Jiraya's books from Tobi and how dirty it was to read that kind of book to a child was asking for trouble. "Carel you got it all wrong. I was never in a relationship with Itachi. The baby's father died before I could tell him. Itachi is just a friend helping me out." He explained Carel blinked a couple of times then narrow his eyes "Are you sure? Because Uncle Ichi has been looking at you like he really like you" Deidara's face turned bright red "HN!"

"Yep! But Dei-san you know its okay because papa told me that once that Uchiha men are determine and stubborn. When they see something they like they go after it until they have it in their arms…"

"CAREL!" the little boy cringe hearing his name called from his Papa in the doorway. "Hey Papa" He said smiling nervously at the blonde. "Where are you supposed to be mister?" Naruto said his hands on his hips. Carel looked back to Deidara and smiled "Hope you feel better Dei-san. Good night"

"Good night" Deidara smiled back at the boy as he jumped off the bed and over to his papa. Naruto's scold turn to a bright smile as he bend down and hug his son and kissing him good night on the forhead. Deidara watch the display of affection of father and son or is it mother and son? His thoughts drifted off to the future where that would be him in Naruto's position. A single parent going through the loss of a love one and consent worry if my child was okay because of their background. He frowned looking away. He was not ready for this.
