It was an hour after noon. A few hours ago the couple had heard that Naruto was indeed the Father of the child in Hinata. Now the boy was on his way to his team-mate, Sakura, and sensei, Kakashi, to tell them the news. The girl was on her way to find her own team to tell.
'Maybe the training grounds…' the blonde thought and walked to that place. Reaching it he saw an annoyed looking Sakura, looking his way. She jabbed her finger to him. "You're later, Naruto! We were supposed to meet three hours ago! You're even later than Kakashi-sensei! Since when do you slack training?!" "Training?" he mumbled surprised.
Sakura twitched her eye. Kakashi on the other hand looked amused. "Naruto, it seems you picked up my tardiness." "Uhm…no… not really…" the boy told as he looked at his sensei. "Then why are you late?" the pink haired demanded to know. "I… had some things on my mind that I totally forgot that we had training. Gome." "Sakura-chan, calm down. Naruto-kun probably had a really good reason to be late," the blue beast of Konohagaru said as he gave his girlfriend a kiss on cheek.
The blonde tried very hard not to laugh, while he saw his team-mate clam down. "Why are you late, Naruto?" the grey haired asked. "Uhm…ano…," his student started, not knowing how to put it into words. The boy started to blush a little. "…I-er…" Three pairs of eyes were fixated at him, while he turned his gaze to the ground. "…I'm gonna be father," he finally muttered.
"You're going out with Hinata," the pink haired stated getting a smile on her face, "that's good to hear; she really needs something to cheer her up." Naruto sighed and turned to look at her. "Sakura, that's not what I mean," he said gaining his confidence back. "Hm?" the girl said confused. "I mean I AM the father. BIOLOGICALLY, okay."
The three shinobi were looking at him, confused. The first one to speak was Lee. "That's wonderful news, congratulations!" The black haired young man said jumping like he was told he was the one who was going to be father. "…er…thanks." 'I think.' Kakashi simply smiled at him. It was Sakura that could not believe this. "That is impossible. You were still on your journey with Jiraiya at that time." "True but…" "LEE! See, Neji, I told you he would be with Sakura," Tenten teased her team-mate.
Lee gave his two friends that had just arrived a questioned look. "Gai-sensei told us to get you, we have training," Neji explained. "O, okay. Then I…" Lee looked puzzled when he saw Sakura grab Naruto's arm. "S-Sakura! Let go of me! Where are you taking me?!" the blonde shouted, trying to free himself without hurting his friend. "I am not believing this, so I go to ask Hinata." "Sakura-san, Hinata-sama isn't at the Hyuga residence." Sakura watched Neji, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"Of course she isn't. Hinata-chan is going to tell Kiba, Shino and Kurenai-sensei!" Immediately after saying that and seeing Sakura's face he could just slap himself. 'Damn, I shouldn't have said that.' And then he was pulled into another direction.
"Would you just believe me! Sakura!"
Neji and Tenten were looking at this event with confusion. "What is this all about?" Tenten asked. "If you follow them you might find out," Kakashi said smiling behind his mask. The Hyuga and the weapon master looked at each other for a moment or two, before following the blonde and pink haired.
------------
The Hyuga heiress had finally found her team-mates. "Yo, Hinata!" Kiba said when he spotted her. The others turned to look at her as well and the stopped the spar. "Hinata, how are you feeling? Did you come by to watch the training?" her teacher asked. Hinata shook her head a little. "No, I have something to tell you." "Spill it out," Kiba barked with a smile. "Ano… we figured out who the father is…"
The girl started to blush a little. "Who is it? Do we know him?" "Hai, you know him. It's…"
"BELIEVE IT, damn it!" Hinata quickly turned around and saw her boyfriend being pulled by a stern looking pink haired. Naruto looked pissed, but as soon he noticed her it faded away. Hinata's eyebrow rose a little when the girl that held her boyfriend's arm so firmly, stopped in front of her. "Hinata is it true?"
For every other person this question would have made no sense at all. But Hinata understood what this was about. "She doesn't want to believe me, Hinata-chan," Naruto mumbled while shooting his team-mate an angry look. "Hai, Sakura-san, it's true."
"What's true?" another voice said. This one belonged to her cousin who looked confused. "Yeah, what is it that Sakura doesn't believe?" asked a confused Tenten.
Sakura was looking at Naruto, still not believing it totally. "Why do you believe Hinata-chan and not me?" Naruto snapped, while he finally got out of her grip. "Because Hinata doesn't lie." "Like I would lie about such a thing. Also, Hinata-chan can lie as well."
"OKAY, would somebody just TELL me what is going on?!" Kiba yelled very confused. "Ano, Kiba…. Naruto-kun is the father."
The one that hadn't heard this yet, turned their gaze to Naruto. He only smiled at them. "How… is that possible?" Kurenai asked puzzled, trying to understand this. "Uhm, sensei d-do you remember when I was ill during that B rank mission?" "Yes, we never figured out why you were ill." "A-ano… I lied when I said I didn't know. I-I had been drinking the n-night before a-and I met Naruto-kun."
"See, Hinata-chan can lie," the blonde informed his team-mate. "Hinata-sama? Does Hiashi-dono know about this?" Neji asked after a short silence. "H-hai, Naruto-kun and I told him this morning." "And your father is fine with it?!" Kiba shouted. Suddenly Naruto was standing next to him. "Do you have any problems with it, dog boy?" The bog boy shuddered. "W-well I don't see you as a father, th-that's all." Naruto only glanced at him for a moment, then he walked over to Hinata and gently grasped her hand. He whispered something in her ear and she nodded. After that the two left, leaving some with puzzled faces.
Sakura sighed. "Well, I don't know what to say. Hinata suddenly seems happy with being pregnant." "Not just that, Sakura-chan," her boyfriend said. She gave him a questioned look. "They are together now, remember. What I know is that Hinata-san always loved Naruto-kun, that's why she is so happy." "Hm," the pink haired nodded, but some others were again shocked.
