Summary: After a sleepover at Naruto's house, Sakura and Kushina come up with a wicked way to wake the oversleeping men.
Author's Note: This used to be my great-grandmother's preferred method of waking you up. It was better than my uncle though. He'd just set the bed on fire.
Yawning, Kushina made her way down the hall to the kitchen. When she woke, she woke to the smell of coffee, but Minato's heavy arm was slung over her. So who's up making coffee at this hour?
When she got to the kitchen, she saw a pink-haired girl rambling around, apparently looking for something.
"Morning, Sakura." She yawned again, walking to the coffee pot.
Sakura jumped, not hearing Kushina come in. "Good morning." She greeted cheerfully.
"I thought you'd still be asleep." The elder woman said as she shook two packets of sweetener into her cup.
"Well, I would have been, but Naruto kicks and Sasuke kept rolling over onto my side of the bed." The ten-year-old complained.
Kushina covered her laugh with her hand. "Yes, I've been the butt of those kicks before. When Naruto was little, whenever he'd have a nightmare or there was a loud storm out, he'd come crawl into our bed."
Sakura smiled. "I used to do that! But I grew out of it."
Kushina laughed. The clock grabbed her attention. Her eyes bugged as she saw the time on it.
"It's eleven o'clock!"
Sakura turned around and looked at the clock. "And we're the only ones up! Those lazy boys!"
A wickedly playful glint flashed in Kushina's eyes. "Hey Sakura, I've got an idea." She whispered, waving her over. Kushina whispered the idea into Sakura's ear, grinning the entire time.
The young girl's eyes lit up. "That is too good!"
Stuffing back giggles, the two dug through the kitchen for their tools before going their separate ways.
That morning, Minato, Naruto, and Sasuke woke up to the sound of giggling and wooden cooking spoons beating against metal pots.
