Valentine POV
I had been walking for hours. And I was cold drowning in my self pity. All I had was my grief, it was like walking through a haunted house alone. Eventually I saw a light, to me it was the light at the end of the tunnel. So I started running, for what? I have no idea. I guess I got some weird impression that I would get a second chance. As I ran what I saw gave me mixed emotions. It was an older man that looked very much like Kakashi and sitting next to him was Kakashi himself.
"K-kakashi?" I asked and he looked up.
"Valentine?" he asked his eyes going wide.
"What are you doing here?" we both asked after hugging each other at the same time and the older man laughed.
"My names Sakumo Hatake, I am Kakashis father, and your father in law I take it?" He said and kakashi nodded.
"This is Valentine." He said introducing me.
"Kakashi and I have been talking ,I was curious about his life. I am very glad I got to meet you, although not in the best circumstances." He said and I nodded wiping a few tears.
"Don't cry Valentine." Kakashi said hugging me.
"I know I don't mean too Im just so sor-" I started but he cut me off with
"Don't worry about it, it's alright. I should be sorry." He said hugging me to comfort me.
"Is Obito alright?" I asked.
"Obitos fine." He said.
"Kakashi what are we going to do? Obitos alone now." I said looking at at him.
Kakashi POV
"Kakashi what are we going to do? Obitos alone now." She said looking up at me with teary eyes.
"We can watch over him. I'm sor-" I stated before we started to glow. My father smiled.
"Looks like its not your time yet." He said and the next thing I knew I woke up in Konoha where I thought I had died. I got up and wobbled a bit on my feet. I had a tough time remembering what had happened but then I remembered,
-valentine!- I thought and went dashing to where I had found her dead. I ran for ten minutes and arrived to where she was. Shizune was over her examining her Gai was there too.
-Whats going on?- I thought and walked up.
"Why isn't she awake?" I asked.
"Well her wounds are healed. Erm…" Shizune said.
"What? What is it?" I asked.
"Well, she is till unconscious because she took a beating. You did too but there was ac complication with her death. Shes fine shough." Shizune said.
"What complication?" I asked.
"Well… Kakashi did you know she was pregnant?" she asked.
"What do you mean by was?" I said slowly taking in the information.
"Well… when she came back the baby didn't. I'm so sorry Kakashi." She said.
"May I take Valentine home?" I asked and Shizune nodded.
"I scooped her up in my arms and took her home, our house was one of the few that was undestroyed." I laid her down on the couch.
"Valentine." I said quietly.
I didn't know how to feel about the baby. I assumed Valentine knew. Slowly she woke up.
"Valentine." I said and she looked at me.
"Kakashi," she said and I nodded.
I put my hand on the side of her face, "I'm so glad your ok." I said.
"Kakashi my stomach hurts." She said.
"There's a reason. But maybe its better if you rest first." I said stroking her hair.
"No I want to know." She said and I sighed.
"Valentine I'm sorry but we lost the baby. Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" I asked.
Tears fell down her face, "I wanted to surprise you on your birthday." She said her voice cracking.
"We can try again in a few months if that's what you want." I said.
"Yeah… I know… yeah…" she said she seemed to be distracted, or distant.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you… I understand if your mad at me."
"I'm not mad. I'm… not… mad." She said looking down the second time she said it. She seemed very unsure of her self and her voice was shaky and it sounded frail. She kept looking at her stomach, as if something was missing, as if she was incomplete.
"Are you trying to convince me or yourself?"
"No, I told you I'm not mad. I don't get mad." She said wiping her eyes and running upstairs holding her stomach.
"No… You only get sad." I whispered to myself when she was gone.
I walked up to the room and sat against the door holding my head not sure of what to do. I could hear her in the room crying. If I entered she would feel uncomfortable, I knew she wanted to be alone. But what was I supposed to do?
I went to get Obito from Sakura and brought him home. After I cleaned him up and put his pajamas on. After I did this I opened our bedroom door and let him inside and told him to hug mommy. I closed the door and sat outside the room listening to Valentine cry while hugging Obito.
"Mommy don't cry. I'll protect you." I heard his small voice say.
He was probably in her lap right now being hugged. Then Obito started to sing to her, he sang the lullaby she sings to him every night. Eventally Obito fell asleep and I opened the door slowly.
"Can I come in?" I asked quietly, she nodded she was on the floor with Obito in her lap.
I took Obito from her and laid him down on the bed so he would be in-between us tonight.
I kneeled down so I could be at her level and I moved her hair out of her tear stained face.
"Val-" I started before she hugged me suddenly.
"I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have shut you out." She said.
"I understand. It's alright." I said stroking her back to calm down her uneven breathing.
"Shhh, it's ok." I said wiping her tears. It felt like we hugged for hours with her slowly calming down. Eventually she fainted in my arms. I carried her to the bed and laid her down gently before tucking her in. I kissed her forehead before getting ready for bed myself. I laid down hugging her and Obito so she didn't get a nightmare. She really wanted another baby.
