Adjustment

Sealed


They stood side by side in the kitchen, Naruto washing and Sasuke putting the dishes away since he didn't know where they were supposed to go anyways when Sasuke nudged him with his elbow. "Minato is awake." He informed the blonde.

"He's probably hungry now," they dried their hands and went together to check up on the pup. Minato was at the very edge of the bed peeking over. He'd moved the pillows out of the way probably so he could climb down. "Hey sweetie." Naruto greeted as he hurried around the bed to rescue the pup from imminent danger. "Hey I was wondering. What breed are you? Me and Mina are foxes.

"Wolf."

"Ahh. You want kids?"

"Yes. I'm almost 30 it's time I settle down and stop dwelling on the past."

"The past?" Naruto asked as he undressed Minato but Sasuke didn't answer. "Well if you don't wanna tell me I won't complain but we should be honest right? If we want this work…"

Sasuke sighed heavily and sat down on the bed. He propped his elbow under his chin as he laid down on his side and watched the two blondes. "Before I married my wife, ex-wife, Karin, I was in love with my brother's bodyguard Kisame."

"What really?" Naruto thought it was way out of the ball park for a 'prestigious' Uchiha to marry an omega, the lowest of the dynamics, but he'd also been in love with a bodyguard which wasn't any better.

"Yes. I… tried to convince him to have me as his partner. We dated for awhile, a month actually, before some paparazzi photographed us at a diner. My parents were disappointed but our patriarch… he was livid. He fired Kisame and he couldn't find work for years. The only way he could fnd a job was to leave the country."

"For having a fling?!"

Sasuke nodded. "Yea well. There were circumstances to his return."

"The ana whatever thing."

"Yes. At first it was voluntary. Our employees received benefits if they took it. Healthcare and insurance. Scholarships for their kids and so forth. But after they forced Kisame to take it," Sasuke turned and laid down on his back and stared up at the ceiling. "Then they just forced everyone to take it if they wanted to work for the Uchihas. If they didn't take they'd never work in Konoha again.

"Jesus…" Naruto whispered as he shifted a now cleaned Minato in arms. The infant was tugging and nosing at the front of the shirt.

"Looks like he's hungry."

"Yea I was about to make a bottle. He won't let go though." Naruto chuckled as he pulled Minato fingers out of his hair.

"If you want to breastfeed go ahead." Sasuke said looking sideways at them.

"No no he should be bottle fed now. Already 8 months old.

"Then," Sasuke sat up and brushed his hair out of his face. "Do you want me to hold him while you prepare a bottle?"

"Uhh…" No Naruto did not want him to hold Minato.

"You'll have to trust me with him sooner or later. You've already signed the papers. He's just as much my son as he is yours."

Papers could be ripped up later on and all that Minato would have left would be Naruto. Sasuke was only a parent by law. Not blood or bonds. Reluctantly Naruto nodded, "yea sure." He circled the bed and handed his baby to Sasuke.

"I have to admit. I've never held a small child before." Naruto's heart jumped several times in his chest at the thought of Sasuke dropping him.

"Just… just put one hand under his butt like this," Naruto positioned Sasuke's arms for him. "And if he starts moving around then just use your other hand to support his back. But he can sit up on his own and he's a good boy so he won't give you any trouble." Minato was looking at Sasuke as if he was in the twilight zone and thinking 'who is this strange man holding me. Mother what were thinking?' he looked back and forth between Sasuke and Naruto with wide eyes.

"Hello," Sasuke greeted jostling him. Minato grabbed a fistful of Sasuke's silky hair to steady himself. "I'll take you to the kitchen. I have an electric kettle you can use."

All in all it was eventful. Naruto kept waiting for Minato to start crying but he was more curious by this new person who was neither grandma nor mommy than intimidated by him. Naruto had an inkling that maybe Minato would be an alpha when his dynamic presented itself. Sasuke watched as Naruto spooned the formula into a clean bottle and then poured the warm water into it. "You're an expert at this." Sasuke commented as he gently bounced Minato on his hip. Naruto wondered if he even realised he was doing it.

Naruto laughed slightly, "thanks I guess. I don't think you can have a baby if you don't know how to make formula." he said. He finished adding the ingredients then he screwed the nipple on, pinched it and gave the bottle a good shake to mix it all up. He took a sip from it to make sure it was an okay temperature before he handed to Minato.

"I guess I'm not qualified then." Sasuke commented stepping closer. "Maybe you can teach me…?" He leaned down and pressed his lips to Naruto but instead of the usual peck this time he tilted his head and pressed closer, deepening the kiss. It was nothing like the kisses before.

Naruto pulled back, "Sasuke?" He asked looking up at the alpha's lips.

"You weren't being very receptive," Sasuke whispered, "even though I was trying to move slowly with you…"

"That was you being slow? It was weird."

"So this is better." Sasuke confirmed and ducked down to capture Naruto's lips once more. Naruto's eyes fluttered closed against his better judgement. And then he remembered Minato.

"Wait a sec," Naruto put his free hand on Sasuke's chest and pushed him back but Sasuke was broadly built and well toned and so he didn't move so Naruto was the one who took a step back. "I need to feed Minato, before he gets grumpy."

"Just one more kiss," Sasuke replied tilting Naruto's chin up with his freehand and claiming his lips in another. Naruto moaned slightly. He thought that Sasuke was a bad kisser but as it turns out Sasuke knew how to use his lips and tongue to make Naruto moaned.

The next sound they heard was a grumpy, "Buh!" and Minato slapping Sasuke in the face hard enough to make the alpha back away from both him and Naruto.

"M-Mina…" Naruto said a little dazed. Minato was in full on tantrum mode though. Smacking Sasuke in the face and screaming his little face off. He twisted and wiggled in Sasuke's arm and the more Sasuke tried to hold on to him was the more Minato thrashed around. Stiffening up and then throwing himself backwards. "Here gimme." Naruto said with wide-eyes. He was still reeling from that kiss. "I'm sorry Sasuke. He doesn't ever act like that." Minato snuggled close to Naruto's neck and balled his little fists in Naruto's shirt, refusing to let go.

"That's alright," Sasuke said wiping his hand across his face. "We can continue tonight." Sasuke leaned in a kissed the corner of his mouth.
