I don't own naruto.
Sasuke sat up from his bed, running his hand through his hair before stepping onto the soft carpet of the room and walking toward the bathroom. He took a slow shower before throwing a t-shirt and sweatpants on before walking down the stairs to find Shinshiro.
He was making himself his own sandwich and as he placed it down onto a flat plate. "You don't want anything else beside that?" Sasuke asked, turning toward his son walking out of the room.
"No thank you. You admitted you couldn't cook a decent meal in your life. Maybe not those exact words but it's the same thing. I don't know what you would do with my food," Shinshiro said, and disappeared into the living room. Within another few seconds the television in the living room was turned on.
Sasuke stared at his son and at the dark hair color almost equivalent to his if only there were no light blonde streaks in it. His hair fell over his shoulders and he sat with his leg crossed as he stared at the screen. Sasuke shook his head and then fixed himself a sandwich too.
After eating it, which he thought was pretty good for the fact that he had made it, he walked up back to his room. Ino sat on the bed, sat up and her long platinum blonde strands falling over her shoulders and body as she tightly pulled up the blanket underneath her arms.
Ino looked up as he entered and focused her gaze down once more onto the bed. "Ino, my beautiful wife," she looked up at the words. "Go and take a long hot bath and come downstairs when you're done." Ino stood up from the bed, the blanket still under her arms and she quietly slipped toward the bathroom.
Sasuke smiled, knowing that she was just trying to make him happy; he saw the little spark in her eyes. He stripped the bed of the sheets and stuffed it along with the blankets into the laundry machine, hoping it would hold it all.
As he slowly walked down the stairs Shinshiro ran past him, throwing the plate softly into the sink before washing his hands and then running back to the couch and then jumping onto the couch. Sasuke backed away as he did and then he walked into the living room, leaning onto the door way before moving toward the big chair.
He watched as Shinshiro's eyes opened wide when the show he was watching, was basically horror and mostly fighting. The room was silent as Shinshiro stared at the television screen and Sasuke watching him.
Commercials began to flood the screen and Shinshiro grabbed his eyes off the television screen, glaring at Sasuke. "What are you looking at?" he laid down onto the couch, crowding the area.
"Nothing, just wondering when you'll start calling me something decent instead of "that man" or by my first name." Sasuke crossed his arms and they stared at each other intensely.
Ino walked into the room, wearing her light purple robe once again. The mood suddenly changed as both of males turned their heads to admire and watched the only female in their small family. Sasuke stood up first and cupped Ino's chin with one hand, pulling her closely into a kiss. She responded, not at first but a little while after.
Shinshiro stared with hatred at Sasuke as he pulled away from her, slightly smirking. Ino wrapped her robe tighter around her body and then walked over toward Shinshiro, rubbing his head and hair.
"Sweetie, did you eat yet?" she asked, and then pressed his head against the front of her rub, breathing in the childish scent of him. "You ate didn't you?"
"Yes, mother," he said, politely. He slowly wrapped his arms around Ino but the doorbell rang loudly before he could fully wrap his arms around her.
Ino pressed her lips against his forehead and picked him off the couch and onto the floor. "Let me just get that, darlings," she said, referring to both Shinshiro and Sasuke, but Sasuke reached the door first, and swung open the door.
"Delivery!" Deidara's voice immediately called right after the door was swung open. Behind him, Itachi held a cardboard box, large in size and it didn't look that heavy. "From your favorite brother! The one and only!"
Ino smiled. "You're my only brother," she said, and then fixed the robe around her once more, "embarrassing for you to see me like this," she muttered and then gestured them both into their house.
Slowly Ino walked up to Deidara, putting her hands on one side of his cheek before kissing the opposite cheek and then repeating the same action to Itachi, and then walked off to fetch Shinshiro. Sasuke raised an eyebrow at Itachi behind Ino's back, slightly jealous that Ino would openly kiss him and she won't kiss him openly.
All the while, Deidara slowly cut open the box with a box cutter and pulled it open as his nephew came toward the box, peeking into it. "Why do you need all of that hair shampoo?" Sasuke asked, staring at the box full of the same shampoo brand.
Shinshiro pulled on the bottom of Ino's robe. "It's kind of embarrassing for him…" she slowly said, and then didn't say anything more as she thanks Deidara and Itachi.
"Oh yeah, sis, you don't need to come to work today, everyone knows it's just your first day," he said, raising an eyebrow. His sister nodded and then pushed him out.
"Get out of my house before you crash it again!"
Deidara raised an eyebrow. "I see, you want your alone time with-!" and then Ino slammed the door in Deidara's face, blushing slightly when she turned around.
She ran her hand slowly down her hair before looking down at Shinshiro. "Yes, honey?" she said, sweetly.
"You didn't even eat breakfast yet, go eat." he said, slightly pushing her toward the kitchen. Ino nodded and began to walk herself. "And um …can I go wash my hair now?"
Ino looked down at her son. "Yes, yes. Go ahead, take a bottle but don't waste it up so fast again." she smiled down at him, kissing his cheek before watching as he walked over toward the box, reaching for one and then racing to the bathroom.
Sasuke turned toward Ino, wondering. "Why does he need so much shampoo? And more than you? That's hard to believe." Ino turned away from him.
"It's …embarrassing for him to talk about it, but you'll find out." she turned around toward Sasuke a smile on her face and then gave him a peck on his cheek. "Did you eat yet? I can fix you up something," she said, walking into the kitchen to get something for her to eat. "We're still going to work today right? We have a lot to catch up since we had that wedding and all…"
"Yeah," Sasuke answered back and then began to make his way up to his room, Ino following behind him.
Ino swiftly ran past him and into her bedroom, untying the rope around her waist and then threw the robe toward the bed, letting it flutter slightly into place on her bed, leaving her only in her purple lacy bra and underwear. Slowly she raised a hand and pulled her bangs back behind her ear and dug into her wardrobe.
Sasuke stared, not knowing what to say at her sudden action, revealing her body to him basically, and then he made his way to his wardrobe, also digging into his cloths. As he turned around he saw Ino, struggling with the skinny jeans but a small smile was on her face as she zipped the flyer up and then dug for her top. He turned around, not wanting to watch anymore and walked into the bathroom.
As she noticed her husband walking into the bathroom she pulled a shirt out the fabric was a dark purple color and it had a short v-neck, not showing too much. She pulled it on over her head and then began to bend over, working on her high ponytail.
When she heard the small footsteps of her son at the door way she said, "Darling, go and get dressed, please." she looked at the foot as it walked back away, making soft thuds.
Taking a deep breath she turned back around and looked at herself in the mirror, checking her long blonde ponytail. A sudden sound of a photo falling down onto the tablet caught her attention and she walked toward it, picking it up and then putting it back into its place.
A picture of her when she was pregnant, she was facing to the right, a smile on her face, and her right hand pressed against her stomach that bumped out largely. She smiled at it, remember the memories back then.
The door to the bathroom suddenly opened and she hid it behind her back, but Sasuke saw the frame as he turned his head toward her. He snatched the photograph and Ino watched as his face immediately softened from his usually hard gaze.
"I was um, pregnant when I took his photo, with Shinshiro," she said, uncertainly, and then turned around, avoiding his face. "I know I look weird…"
"No, not at all," he said, surprising Ino. "You look at peace, like you love the baby even before he was born. You loved it not caring what the father did to you." he turned around to place the photograph down onto the table. "What I did to you."
Ino walked toward him, grabbing his arm. "It's not your problem," she slowly said, uncertain of her own words.
~'.~'.~'.~'.~
"Mrs. Uchiha," a voice said from the door.
Ino sat at her table, paperwork stacked up high on her desk and Ino's pen she held furiously moved across the paper, a hand held to her temple as she thought hard, concentrated in her work.
"Mrs. Uchiha," the voice repeated patiently.
Sakura walked up to Ino, tapping on her shoulder and then saying, "He means you, Ino." but Ino ignored her, furiously trying to get the paper work done.
"What?" Ino yelled, slightly angry, and then Mikoto lifted her up by her arm, dragging her out of her office chair. "No, no. I'm fine!" she said, knowing exactly what Mikoto was going to do next.
She shook her head. "No dear, I know what you're going through. You're stressed; don't worry about all of the work. You're husband would gladly finish it off for you, won't you, Sasuke?" she yelled across the room to Sasuke, who was drinking his coffee. "Put that drink down and help your dear wife," she said, and then turned Ino toward the door, giving her a slight push.
Sasuke grabbed Ino's wrist, stopping her from moving any further. He gave her a small peck on the cheek before releasing his hold on her and then sitting down on the big office chair saying, "I'll finish this. Go take a nap or something." and then he picked up the pen, immediately working on the paperwork as if it didn't mind him at all.
"Oh okay, yes, thank you, Sasuke." she gave a small bow before leaving the room, and then walking over toward her room not too far. She let her hand flutter over the fabric of the single bed set in the room. "There's nothing to do anyway…"
Then she took off her shoes and pulled the blanket over her body to fall to a gentle sleep.
After ten minutes or so, Sasuke was done, surprisingly he hadn't complained or even bother too much; he did the work quickly and right. Knowing where Ino would be, he arrived at her room, not bothering to knock and just walking into it. The beautiful blonde laid down on her bed, sleeping peacefully and not knowing that Sasuke had even entered the room.
He walked near her, running a hand slowly through her silky hair and then looking up at the photos in the room, scanning them to note that must of them were on her and Shinshiro. Sasuke stopped near her bed and lifted a hand and then let it drop when Ino suddenly woke up.
She pulled herself up and then ran a hand through her hair, looking up at him once before rising up from the bed, and then slipping her shoes on. "Where's Shinshiro?" she said, surprising Sasuke with the sudden question.
"He's with Neji right now, getting taught math, I think." he watched as she slowly fixed her hair in a high ponytail and made her way to the door. Catching her wrist once more he held her close, pressing his lips against hers. Surprisingly Ino deepened it and then moved away from him, blushing a dark pink from her sudden action.
Ino walked out of the room, her hair swinging and she closed the door behind her, only to open it again. "Um …can you get out of my room? I know it's rude but I don't like people going through my things." her husband walked out, and stood close near her. As Ino turned around and looked into Sasuke's eyes, she stumbled a bit to the side and then took a deep breath, walking the other way.
"I-.. I have to go, bye!" she bowed a bit; "I'll see you… later." she turned around and ran around the corner, away from him. The only thing he could do was smirk.
~'.~'.~'.~'.~
As Ino turned around the corner, Shinshiro stood there, staring into the room that Neji was supposed to be in, just staring. "What, Shinshi-oh…" she stared at the scene. Neji and Tenten kissing each other lovingly, not full of desire and lust, just lovingly.
Her son turned away, avoiding her eyes, and said, "Nothing." he walked away from her, staring down on the floor, hoping for something.
"Shinshiro," Ino said, her voice soft and gentle like the voice she would only use talking to Shinshiro kindly. He kept walking. "Why are you like this to me?" the sadness in her voice struck him.
He stopped walking but he didn't turn around. "It's not your fault." and then he walked away. Ino stood near the doorway, watching Tenten move away from Neji, love in her eyes.
Hinata stopped by, holding Ino's shoulders, despite their height difference. "Don't worry about him …he's just sad that his parents don't love each other like Neji and Tenten love each other…" she turned around to walk into Neji's office, interrupting and then handing Neji some files before leaving once more.
"Ino," Neji's voice called out toward her, snapping Ino out of her thoughts about Shinshiro.
She turned toward him. "Yes?" she walked toward him, into the office next to Tenten.
He turned around. "I really think Shinshiro is ready to just go to public school." Tenten's head snapped toward Ino's direction.
Ino raised an eyebrow. "Don't you remember the last incidence of what happened? The bullies ganged up on him, and he was younger back then. He punched them all and he was expelled." looking at Tenten, she noticed her shaking her head and mouthing the word 'No.'
She turned around, and looked at Shinshiro standing at the doorway. He nodded, knowing that it was right. Then Sasuke walked into the room, right after Shinshiro.
It was as if the whole world knew what he wanted most in the world.
