Chapter 7: Her First Sister

"Do you want to know?" asked Hinata.
Onyx eyes looked at his very pregnant wife then back down at his sword. "Know what?"
As she was about to elaborate Hikari ran into the room with a large smile. "I'm up!" She sat in between the ravens and laid on her back.
Sasuke was careful to move his weapons. "Let me guess."
"Guess what?" Hikari asked curiously.
Hinata tucked some loose hair behind her ear and leaned to tickle the little girl. "If you're going to have a brother or sister…"
She switched to look at her mother to father. "Can I guess?" Hikari grabbed a kunai which Sasuke snatched away.
"No," said Sasuke.
She huffed and moved to sit beside her mother. "Daddy is a meanie," whispered Hikari.
Hinata giggled and hugged her. "Let him choose." She looked up at the fuming Uchiha. After being a father for six years, he still isn't used to her…personality. Hinata wouldn't tell him that she was just a more hyper version of himself.
He rubbed his chin thoughtfully while looking at her stomach. After a long five minutes he snapped his fingers. "I think it's a-"
"Girl!" Hikari squealed.
Sasuke's eyes widened just a fraction. "Leave." He pointed to the door.
Hikari stood, paying him no mind. "Did I get it right, huh mama? Huh?" She danced in front of her.
Hinata grabbed her wiggling body. "You didn't let him guess."
"He was taking too loooong," said Hikari. "I'm right, huh?" She grabbed Hinata's cheeks.
Sasuke rubbed his temples. "I don't care."
A smile pulled at her lips. "Actually, yes." She made light circles over her stomach. Hikari squealed in happiness and Sasuke…
He was left to wonder why give him another daughter? Was one not enough? Who wanted to torture him? Suddenly he was pulled out of his depressing thoughts when Hikari jumped in his arms.
"Daddy, aren't you happy?" Her stormy eyes clashed with his darker ones. He glanced up to see Hinata chewing at the bottom of her lip.
"Of course." answered Sasuke. "I'm - glad." He finished and saw the woman let out a shaky breath.
She gave him a small smile and he returned the gesture. "Sasuke, help me." She extended her hand.
He shook his head and stood. "I don't know why you did that," he asked while helping her to stand.
She gave a light giggle and held her swollen stomach. "I'm not a trophy," she replied.
Hikari smiled at her parents and followed them back into the house. "D-Daddy!" she called.
"Yes?"
Her eyes widened as Hinata also looked back. A light blush dusted her cheeks. "A-Ano…I got to ask you a question…without mama." She wrung her hands until he nodded.
Hinata gave him a look before padding into the house. Sasuke squatted down to her level. "Nervous?"
She nodded quickly. "I… W-What if she doesn't like me?" She covered her mouth dramatically before leaning in. "What if she doesn't like us!"
Sasuke placed his hand on her head. "She is going to love us both," said Sasuke. He grabbed her chin. "You're going to be a big sister soon."
She chewed at her lip just like her mother. "O-okay…"
He nodded and stood. "Beside-" He paused hearing a cry from inside that belonged to Hinata. Hikari gasped and followed after Sasuke.
.
He always hated hospitals. It was something he never gotten used to but he wasn't the only person…
Hikari was clutching her ears, curled into his side. "She's h-hurting mama!" she cried.
"She's fine." Hopefully.
Hikari wiped her face. "I don't want her anymore!" She crossed her arms.
Sasuke ruffled her hair. "It's a bit too late now."
"I don't like her."
"You haven't met her."
The smaller Uchiha pouted before crawling on his lap. "I don't like her." She pinched his cheeks. He squeezed her jaws making the little girl laugh.
"Who will teach her the potty song?" asked Sasuke. Her eyes lowered and nodded. "Who is going to protect her when we aren't around?"
"Me?" she pointed to herself.
He nodded. "You." The door opened revealing the medic with a smile. "Let's go."
.
"She's so ugly!"
Hinata laughed and pinched her nose. "Don't say that. She's beautiful just like you."
"What's her name?" Hikari wrinkled her nose at the pinkish bundle in her mother's arm.
"Kitai Uchiha," said Hinata. "She looks like daddy, huh?"
"Ano…I guess."
Sasuke watched them from his seat. It brought him back to the night Hikari was born. That time he was nervous but he could handle this. How hard could two girls be?
.
It wasn't until the dead of night that he remembered why he wasn't fond of newborns. A low cry started from the next room. He looked over at Hinata. "Baby's crying," he told her.
"Nuhn," mumbled Hinata as she rolled over. "G-Go."
He narrowed his eyes and pulled the covers to the floor. She whined and curled into a ball. He chuckled and went walked down the hall.
"Kit-chan, you gotta stop crying! You're gonna wake them up!"
Sasuke stood at the doorway watching Hikari trying to console her sister. "Hikari."
She looked over with watery eyes. "Daddy, she w-won't stop crying!" She clenched her fist.
He walked over to her. "Your mother taught me how to hold you." He picked up the child up staring into her tear soaked ebony eyes before trying to give her to Hikari. "Hold her."
Hikari sniffled and stepped back. "I c-can't! I…I'm a BAD sister!" She started crying which made Kitai wail. Sasuke pushed the slight panic down. "D-Daddy!" She latched onto his leg.
"Stop." commanded Sasuke.
.
Hinata watched the scene with her Byakugan with a hopeful smile. Sasuke could handle them. She had absolute faith-
The crying stopped abruptly and he walked back into the room. Snatching the sheets, he threw them over the bed and rolled on his side. "I fixed it."
"W-What did you do?" asked Hinata.
He groaned and turned over. "Genjutsu-" she hit him with a pillow. "Hinata?"
"You c-can't use your Sharingan on them!" She frowned.
"They wouldn't shut up," said Sasuke.
She sighed. "That's bad, Sasuke."
He huffed and rolled over. "You fix it then." With that he was finished until he heard HER sniffling. "What?"
"S-Sasuke!" She hit him again.
"Fine." He pulled the sheets to the floor again and barely dodged the pillow aimed at his head.
.
This time the Uchiha residence had a natural silence. Hinata couldn't help but smile at the scene before her. Sasuke was sleeping on floor with Kitai on his chest and Hikari curled under his arm.
"He is so sweet." Hinata whispering before walking down the hall with a goofy smile until she saw Sasuke sleeping on the couch. "Sasuke!"
There was a poof in the back room and the crying started again. "Hinata." He groaned.
"You can't do that." said Hinata.
"No more kids," he gritted out sulking past her. She sat on the couch almost worried about her girls and his sanity. She shook those thoughts away. He was fully capable of dealing with them, after all he was Uchiha Sasuke.
And she had faith in him.
"Fixed it." He had a sleeping Hikari on his hip while bouncing Kitai.
She stood and took Kitai from him. He sighed in relief when she kissed him lightly. Yeah, she had faith in him.
