.Recap.

Entering his destination, he found the woman who has been on his mind too much lately, on the hospital bed, in the unflattering backless gowns.

The only thing was, she looked perfectly fine. Happy, in fact.

Onyx orbs hardened. "You're not dying." He stated.

Emerald orbs crinkled, "You make it sound like a bad thing, Sasuke-kun." Sakura replied while motioning him over. He did.

"You sounding like you were fucking dying on the phone."

At that, Sakura smiled sheepishly, "I was kind of choking on water because Tsunade-shishou practically threw the phone to me without letting me swallow my drink." She explained.

Inwardly, the Uchiha sweat-dropped at the dumb misunderstanding. He tended to expect the worse and this situation was no different. He was, honestly, worried sick about the pinkette, not even realizing that the baby was not even a thought, nor were his parents or the company.

.End Recap.

Life sucked balls.

Sasuke sat on the uncomfortable hospital chair in the obnoxiously bright hallway of the emergency ward.

Sakura, a heaping mess to his left.

After the initial joy of the news -pure excitement from the pinkette and contained glee from the Uchiha- the former demanded he meet her mother as 'Sasuke, the father of my child' instead of just plain old 'Sasuke.'

That was where things started to get dirty (Life is such a slut; it sucks so much balls).

When the two entered the hall where the older Haruno was staying, nurses and doctors were rushing a patient towards the ER. A soon-to-be-grandma patient, to be specific.

Sakura, as a doctor, was use to the chaos and knew how to take charge of any situation. However, when it came to her own mother, control was tossed out the window; she immediately ran after the medical staff, trying to figure out what was happening.

That was when things got nasty.

There was screaming and sobbing and tears.

Uchiha Sasuke doesn't do tears.

Ever.

The crying started four hours ago, when Tsunade, the head doctor, was called to personally attend to the surgery.

Four hours of crying.

That was when 'oh fuck' became the only word in Sasuke's dictionary, forget his 'hn's and 'Aa's.

Not that he had no feelings, Himeko Haruno looked like an amazing person (one who reminded him a lot of his own mother) and her being sent to the ER wasn't good. He cared, the older woman was his child's mother's mom, so he cared. However, with Sakura's mother in the emergency room, his child's mother (which is Sakura) is possibly giving herself a depression-induced illness that might kill said child.

Safe to say, Uchiha Sasuke isn't very happy.

He might actually even be w-wo-worried.

Shit, he couldn't even think the damn word without grimacing.

"Uchiha."

His name snapped him out of his thoughts.

It was Tsunade. A very blood stained Tsunade.

Said man raised an eyebrow, relieved that Sakura was too depressed and worried to even notice her mentor.

She returned the gesture with a hand signal telling him to follow her.

He did.

"I need you to take her home."

The Uchiha stared at the woman; asking her to explain.

Tsunade growled, "Sakura is in no condition to be in this situation. It's heartless, but her being in the emotional state she is in right now will, without a doubt, tamper with the results of the IVF test. Also, the baby and Sakura can be in danger if she continues the way she is." Without letting him say a word, she continued, "Her mother isn't doing the best, but she is not dead. However, I need you to keep Sakura away for now, she shouldn't be dealing with this. Especially when pregnant. Now, I need to get back in there, and if I, or anyone else, sees that Sakura is still in the hallway, you will be in a lot of trouble Uchiha."

Listening to the doctor's speech, Sasuke was surprised by the emotions that were appearing; he was worried and nervous.

What has this world come to? This was crazy; Uchiha Sasuke? Worried? And nervous?

God Damn.

Running a hand through his raven locks, the Uchiha groaned. He was feeling emotions and feelings that didn't appear when his own father was in the hospital.

Oh, fuck.

-x-x-x-

Safe to say, getting Sakura to leave the hospital was not an easy task.

It involved a lot of yelling and meltdowns and

more tears.

By the time he finally got her into the car, Uchiha Sasuke had reached his annual life-quota and was frustrated.

Very, very frustrated.

Luckily, a few minutes into the drive, Sakura's system finally shut down and she was fast asleep, leaving him to his much needed silence.

Arriving home, he unlocked the door and carried the pinkette in, placing her in their bed carefully.

It's weird;

A week or two into their charade and sharing isn't that hard to do anymore.

Before, if a chick even touched his stuff, they'd be out the door, sex or no sex.

Now?

I don't even want to think about it. He thought, shaking his head.

Doing as he thought, Sasuke entered his office and picked up his phone; he did leave his office rather abruptly.

"Hello there! My name is Rock Lee, thank you, youthful stranger, for calling Uchiha Corp.! How may I help your youthful soul today?" Greeted a hyperactive Lee.

The Uchiha growl, what idiot puts Rock Lee even remotely near a phone? Especially HIS office phone? Where the fuck was his secretary?

Fuck, I bet we lost a shit load of clients. Sasuke thought bitterly.

"Lee, why are you answering the phone? Where's Tenten?"

Said man gasped, "Uchiha-san?" He yelled, "My! I heard from Kiba-san that your clone ran out of the office, can you tell me where I can get a clone myself?"

The initial reaction was not pleasant, it was a mixture of a shiver and a twitch.

Two Rock Lees? Hell would be more pleasant.

Ignoring the weird man, Sasuke asked again, "Where is Tenten?"

"Tenten? Oh! She went to the ladies room! Her youthful bladder must have needed a break!" He exclaimed.

Just then, some shuffling was heard over the phone, before a new voice was heard.

"I apologize for the inconvenience, this is Uchiha Corp. how may I be of assistance today?"

Sasuke sighed, it was Tenten.

Thank God.

"Tenten."

His voice earned a gasp from the other line.

"S-Sasuke? I can explain!"

It sounded like she was getting on her knees.

Rolling his eyes at her dramatic-ness, he moved on, giving her a set of instructions for the remainder of the day, emphasizing on his dislike for the 'youthful' green-clad male to answer, or be anywhere near, the phone.

After receiving various reassurances from the brown-haired female, he hung up.

Checking the clock, it read 7:30.

He was at the hospital for a good four hours.

THAT is a shit load of crying. He thought, shaking his head.

-x-x-x-

The steady beeping of the patient's heart monitor was the only sound in the dark hospital room.

Tsunade sighed, twelve hours.

She was in surgery for twelve straight hours, thankfully, those long hours did not go to waste.

Himeko Haruno was out of the Danger's grasp. However, she will be under tight medical surveillance.

Anything that can go wrong, will, definitely, go wrong.

Tsunade checked the patient's conditions one last time, before exiting quietly.

They did all that they could without putting too much pressure on the Haruno's body. It was a risky surgery; almost all medications used were still under development and weren't approved by the board yet.

Tsunade sighed; the situation was so bad that they were practically forced to use the meds. Hopefully, the side-effects will not be life-altering.

Outside, Shizune waited with a cup of hot coffee.

"She's stable." The head doctor stated.

Shizune sighed, "Thank God. Should we call Sakura-san and let her know?"

Tsunade took a glanced at the clock before shaking her head, "No, We'll tell her later, it's two in the morning, she and the baby needs rest." She chuckled, "I'm sure that Uchiha brat needs some sleep too."

-x-x-x-

Sleep seemed impossible to achieve.

Onyx orbs stared at the clock; 1:30.

Fantastic. He thought sarcastically, I've been in bed for almost two and a half hours.

He was tired.

However, the body next to him just wouldn't let him sleep; Sakura kept turning and whimpering in her sleep, probably an unpleasant dream. However, waking her would only cause more trouble, she will most likely insist she wait at the hospital for news about her mother and with Tsunade there, that was a big no-no for Sasuke.

So, Sasuke has to deal with the tossing and the turning and the shuffling of the sheets and the whimpers.

Despite his attempt to deal with said happenings, Uchihas had very little patience, especially with all that occurred in the day.

Yet another whimpered escaped the pregnant female's mouth.

Accompanied by a toss and a turn.

'That's it.'

He grabbed the pinkette's sleeping form, halting all movement.

Counting to ten, there was still no moving from the figure in his arms.

Glad that he might have a chance at some shut-eye, he adjusted his arms to a more comfortable position around her waist and relaxed.

Well, as relaxed as life allowed him to be.

-x-x-x-

The next couple of days passed in a blur.

A lot occurred within the last week and the Uchiha took this time to sort everything out; with the amount of work from the company and the amount of attention Sakura needed, Sasuke was under a lot of stress.

Luckily, his mother was a step ahead and had sent his older brother to the rescue- although the younger Uchiha will die before admitting he thought his brother as a 'savior.'

.Flashback.

A kurt knock echoed and bounced against the walls in the quiet house.

Carefully unwrapping his arms from the pinkette's form (waking her up was equivalent to suicide), Sasuke slowly trudged to the front door, cursing the stranger that woke him up in various languages.

He had barely slept due to Sakura's tossing and now this?

'God must be having a fucking blast messing with my life,' he thought bitterly.

Opening the door, Onyx orbs met its brotherly counterparts.

"Hello there, darling brother."

Said brother growled, "Itachi, why the fuck are you here so early?"

The older Uchiha ignored him and walked into the house, "Haven't you heard?" He asked.

Without letting Sasuke answer, he continued, "The early bird gets the worm."

Chuckling at his own rely, he sat down on the black leather couch.

"So where is that beauty with the angelic voice?"

Sasuke's growl intensified, somehow, the long-haired Uchiha's question annoyed him.

"Her name is Sakura. What do you want?" He asked, less than nicely.

Itachi chuckled, "Relax little brother, I came to tell you that your workload has been cut significantly."

A dark eyebrow rose in question.

"Father, due to mother's incessant pushing, has assigned me to take care of the company while you attend to Sakura; I have already spoken to the partners and have distributed work amongst the three co-presidents and I, so you don't have to worry."

Rising from the couch, Itachi gave his younger sibling a pat.

"I'll be on my way now, don't get your panties in a bunch, Foolish Little Brother."

With that, Itachi was gone.

Secretly relieved he no longer had so much work, a weight was taken off his shoulder.

He smirked, "Fuckin' Weasel."

.End Flashback.

"Are you ready?"

The soft voice snapped him out of his reverie, it was Sakura.

Processing her question, he nodded before getting off the couch; they were visiting Himeko.

Ever since the surgery, the pseudo-couple has been at the hospital quite often. Seeing as Sakura still could not drive with her cast, Sasuke was her 'chauffeur,' much to the said male's annoyance.

Fortunately, Sakura's attitude improved drastically and she was almost entirely back to normal, sans pregnancy hormones.

'Although the hormones are nearly as bad.' Sasuke thought bitterly, recalling a particularly bad incident from the other day.

.Flashback.

Since 'The Dark Age,' a term Naruto used for Sakura's depressed mood about her mother's state, was over, Sakura decided to spend the day (Tsunade still did not allow her near the hospital, but assured her mother was safe and very much so alive) baby-izing the house.

And of course, Sasuke was her poor victim (not that the Uchiha cared much, he only semi-complained, in his 'Uchiha' way, to keep up the 'douche' image).

"A little more to the right, no, I change my mind, a little more to the left. Wait! More to the right, mooore- oops, too much, move a little more back. Sasu-"

The pinkette was cut off by the male.

"Sakura."

She batted her eyelashes and smiled, "Yes, Sasuke-kun?"

He growled, pointing at the space where the dresser stood, "This is the exact, damn, spot we started."

His only reply was a giggle before she bursted into tears- He never saw it coming.

When he took a step towards her she almost slapped him on the face -"You fucking Asshole! I'm all pregnant and fat and you still look so fucking nice and you're COMPLAINING? Go get yourself pregnant, you bastard!"-

With that, she ran out of the soon-to-be nursery.

If one looked very closely, they could see the slight twitch in the Uchiha's right eyebrow.

.End Flashback.

"You know, I'm happy you're here."

Glancing quickly at the passenger seat Sasuke raised a brow.

Sakura sighed, "I'm happy you are putting up with me; you drive me places, you cook, you," She paused before continuing, "you give me reason to not worry."

Making a left at the light, Sasuke slowed to a stop outside Himeko's room in the recovery wing.

Turning towards the pregnant pinkette, he gave her a smirk; "I Kind of want you to not be a sap, now go visit your mother."

He placed a light kiss on her forehead and ushered her out, promising to pick her up in an hour.

As he watched her enter the hospital and smiled; Happy to be here.
