Mornings were the best time for reflection. As a young boy watched his two younger brothers sleep, he was content and began to dive into a quiet reflection of his family.
"Cupcakes…" Yuuri suppressed a chuckled as L mumbled in his sleep. Between them lay his baby brother, Wataru.
"Mh." The toddler sighed in his sleep, curling closer to L. Yuuri smiled slightly, glad to see they were no longer having nightmares from the sudden departure of Riki in March. Sighing as he watched them dream, Yuuri began to reflect on his family.
Mikoto Uchiha, his mother, was born on January 28, 1968. She, Minato, and Fugaku grew up together. She fell in love with Fugaku Uchiha, and they married three short months before Itachi was born, Kida had told him. Then, four years after Fugaku died, she and Minato fell in love. They married two years ago. His mother was a very kind woman, who was not only the First Lady of the United States, but with Itachi, helped run the infamous Uchiha Clan.
L sighed in his sleep, pulling Wataru closer.
Minato Uzumaki, his father, was born three days before Mikoto. He met his first wife, Kushina, in the bad side of town when Itachi was three months old. They fell in love, and he took her, her twin sister, and niece in. They married a year later, and adopted the niece(Anko) shortly after her sister's death. The twins were born a year later, a week after his inauguration. Kushina died giving birth to Naruto a few years later.
Wataru's hand came flying towards Yuuri's face, but before it made contact, it flopped beside his head.
Itachi Uchiha, his eldest brother, was born on June 9, 1987. He was the first candidate to be heir of the Uchiha family. He gave the title up the year Yuuri was born, for reasons no one knows. His freshman year he met and fell in love with Emi, Ginkai's mom. Yuuri remembered her to be very sweet and gentle. It broke Itachi's heart when she broke up with him. Now, years later, the truth came out and he now has a four year old son. He is currently helping out with the military part of the Uchiha Clan.
The two year old threw a leg over L's, sighing in his sleep.
Kane Uchiha, his eldest sister, was born on August 3rd, 1989. Kida and Oten informed him last year that she was their half-sister, having a different mother. Yuuri and L sometimes ponder over that situation, wondering how she became their sister. She was currently going to start college in the fall, having graduated from high school a semester early while also working in one of the Uchiha Clan's corporate major branches. Her boyfriend of almost a year, Dan, was a relatively good guy, though L swears he's using her, though unable to explain how he knows.
L stuck his thumb in his mouth, suckling lightly.
Sasuke Uchiha, his older brother, was born on July 23rd, 1991. He and Akina became co-heirs to the Uchiha Clan after Itachi denounced the title. Sasuke loved the idea because he admired his father a great deal, and was jealous of Itachi when he was younger, sparking his competitive nature. He is also best-friends with their step-brother, Naruto Uzumaki. The two also were rivals in everything. Sasuke had an on-again, off-again girlfriend, with whom he had grown up with. The she-devil, as Akina puts it, was currently in Hawaii with her sisters. Sasuke still pined after her, despite Sakura's infatuation with a male named Sai.
L's head snapped back against the wall, Yuuri flinching at the sound of the sharp contact.
Akina Uchiha, his older sister, was born fifteen minutes after Sasuke. She was reluctant to take the heir title, but Uchiha law stated she had no choice. For now, she remains undecided on how she feels about it. Currently two months pregnant, her morning sickness was kicking in with a vengeance. Her boyfriend Gaara was trying to be helpful, and it was helping. Their mother had finally warmed up to the idea of getting another grandchild, and had begun to buy baby things again, having planned on not having another baby around after Wataru, thus giving away many things. Akina was excited about the baby, though dreading the school year where it would be noticeable.
Feeling a draft, Yuuri placed the blanket under his brothers' chins.
Riki Uchiha, his missing older brother, was born on September 15, 1991. Riki was the wild child of the family, and according to his cousin Mitsuru, always had been. Being two months younger than the older twins, the three were like triplets. Kane revealed that she and Riki shared a mother, but that was all she knew. Riki started smoking at the age of twelve. When he was fourteen, he met his closest friends Guy and Katze. Katze, according to Itachi's friend Kazuku, ran a successful black market. Guy, on the other hand, was messing around with gangs. He and Guy started a gang of their own, Bison, six months before Riki disappeared. Riki had been a caring older brother, who was fiercely loyal and protective of his family.
Wataru gripped L's shirt, pressing himself against him.
Oten Uchiha, his big brother, was born on January 11th, 1994. He is the most rambunctious of the Uchiha boys, and big on sports. Naruto was his role model, and he followed him around every time the blond was here. He also dreamed about helping to run the Uchiha military, and his love for war games backed up this dream. Kida often worried about him getting killed in war because he was such a hot head, but Kane would always dismiss that. Sasuke admitted once that Oten would probably do well in the military, much like their Uncle Obito.
Kida Uchiha, his big sister, was born an hour after Oten. They never realized she existed until she was born, Itachi had told him once. She and Itachi were immensely close, mainly due to the fact that she lost their father at eight months old, and Itachi was the closest thing she had. Their mother said Itachi snapped at a relative once when she was three that she was his baby, and was not allowed to be anyone else's. Kane confirmed it. She is very in tune with the family's feelings. L was also close to her, mainly because she doted after them when they were babies. She dreamed of starting high school and getting a boyfriend, much to Itachi chagrin.
L sighed again in his sleep, mumbling about the stupid sugar fairy. Yuuri chuckled, gently brushing back L's hair.
Lawliet Uchiha, his younger brother, was born on October 31st, 2000. His unusual name came from Minato's family tree, Mikoto had told them. When he was four years old, he was doing Sasuke's math homework. Now, he had done Kane's. He was extremely intelligent and, because of that, he had been asked to help a few extremely top secret CIA and FBI cases in the past year. There he went by the name Ryuuzaki, and he spoke through their great-Uncle Watari. He would be tutored by some very intelligent people starting next year, according to Mikoto.
Noticing the increase in the activity from the two, Yuuri figured they'd be up soon. He gently pulled Wataru's arm away from his nose.
Wataru Uchiha, his baby brother, was born on September 27, 2004. He was a complete surprise to his mother, but his resemblance to Itachi and Kida was so strong Mikoto got a DNA test done. It turns out he was actually Fugaku's child, not Minato, much to his mother's surprise. Itachi had made him and L keep this news to themselves. His pregnancy was the reason for L's fixation with pregnant people, seeing as he was alone with their mother a lot during the time. Though he was hyper now, Minato assured him he would mellow out in time.
"Is something wrong?" L asked quietly, pulling Yuuri out of his thoughts. Yuuri shook his head, grinning at L.
"Nope. Just thinking. Let's wake up Wataru and go eat. Akina quit puking ten minutes ago." Yuuri teased. L chuckled, shaking Wataru awake.
As he watched Wataru grumble at L, he sighed quietly.
What a wonderful way to start the day.
A/N: Sorry about this being so late everyone. Is a 9 chapter update an acceptable apology gift?
