Falling in Love with a Dragon

Disclaimer: Neither of us own Naruto, but Aniki does own Ryuu.

"Temari-chan!" Naruto suddenly zipped off down the street, leaving his team and Ryuu to blink in confusion until they saw another blonde with her hair up in four pigtails turn around to hug him.

Ryuu chuckled and proceeded walking. "Looks like the Kazekage has come for a visit." Sakura jogged to catch up to him, pointedly ignoring the dark-haired boy beside her. Ryuu smiled reassuringly at her before blinking and veering off course. "Ky," was the only explanation that he gave the questioning glances. Sakura smiled and followed him.

"You always seem to know when she's upset." He grinned then waved to the Suna Siblings before jumping onto a building and heading to the Hokage Tower with Sakura close behind him.

Sasuke watched them leave a little sadly. It had been a week since Ryuu had threatened him, but he had yet to apologize to her. Ino had been avoiding him like a plague as well. Kakashi laid a hand on his student's shoulder and smiled slightly. "He isn't as bad as you want to believe."

Sasuke looked away and want to greet the Suna nin. Maybe he should give Ryuu the chance to help, but he wasn't even sure that he would take it.

"Hey Ky!" Ryuu picked up his adoptive daughter and spun her around in the air, eliciting a babyish giggle from the girl. "How is my baby girl doing?"

Tsunade shook her head in amusement from her place at her desk. "You confuse me Ryuu. You know she can't answer you, so why do you always ask her questions?"

Ryuu rolled his eyes and focused on Ky's blood red orbs. "Your Sharingan is developing faster than I expected…" Faster than Lyn's… Orochi-teme must have done something...

Sakura walked into the room with Ky's milk bottle and took her from her sensei to begin feeding her. The dragon jinchuuriki watched them with a smile. She'll be a good mother some day…

Yeah, to our children. Ryuu turned away to hide his blush and mentally pounded Shinn in the head. You have to admit, Gaki, it's not an unwelcome thought.

"Sensei? Are you alright?" Ryuu blinked to see Sakura right in front of his face. "You're all red; do you have a fever?"

"Gah!" Ryuu fell backward in surprise and hit his head against the wall. "Ow… you'd think a shinobi wouldn't do that…" He heard Shinn chuckle as he rubbed the growing bump on his head.

He looked up to see Sakura laughing and smiled. Then again, if it makes her laugh, I guess I can do this more often.

"It seems the rumors of you having a daughter are true, then, Ryuu." The deadpan voice made Ryuu grin and turn to face the Kazekage.

"Yeah, who would have thought, ne?" Gaara let a small smile creep onto his face and nodded. Ryuu took Ky from his student and walked over to the tanuki jinchuuriki. "Gaara, this is Kylira; Ky, this is the Godaime Kazekage, Sabaku-no-Gaara."

Kylira made a baby sound and reached her arms out to the redhead. Gaara controlled his sand to pick her up and cradle her. The girl squealed as the sand began to play with her. "Suna! Suna!"

Those gathered in the room stared in awe as the baby squealed again and sent bursts of wind at the sand, only to squeal again as it gathered back together. Ryuu smiled and took her back from his friend. The baby girl immediately began pulling at his bangs. You really are so much like her: an affinity with wind, and an obsession with hair… As if sensing his thoughts, Ky laughed happily.

AN: Yes, another filler, and I'm extremely sorry about that and how long it took me to update, but I wanted to give a little insight on how Ryuu and Sakura's little 'family' is coming together, and I had to make Ryuu fall backward! Plus I had to get Gaara in there. The next chapter will have more to the story, though I'm warning you, it may not be for a... semi-long to long time. --; Gomen.

School's been an itch, (though not nearly as bad as my boss), and I'm trying to keep up with all the other activities, such as choir, piano, fanfiction, and of course work so that I have the money to do this stuff.

Again, I apologize for the update coming so late and I hope that you all don't hate me too much, cause Aniki has been naggin' me for weeks to get this updated. XD Thank you all for reading and please review to tell me your thoughts.
