Chapter 14

The One Thing She Didn't See


Yuzuki sighed thoughtfully as she walked down the street. Even though it had been a few weeks, almost two months actually, Yuzuki was still playing those three days in her head. Deep down she couldn't believe it had happened. She had told Madara the truth about her origins before he could do what he was planning. It's true she held the same feelings for him but she didn't want to things to have gone as far as they did without him knowing. She would have felt bad, like she was lying, hiding some secret truth. Then a blunt look crossed her face.

'Even though I told him he still went for it and asked questions later. Quite the romantic man I fell for.' Another sigh escaped as she walked down the path. A sweet scent teased her nose and her head popped up. She followed it to the tea shop and blinked a few times. She smiled brightly and walked up to the counter. The store owner smiled warmly.

"Good morning Lady Yuzuki. Would you like your usual today?" she asked. Yuzuki shook her head white-haired head.

"No not today. Something smells really sweet today though. What is it?" she inquired.

"Oh that? Well one of our customers came and ate all the peach dango. We have some already made, would you like some?" she asked. Yuzuki nodded her head eagerly.

"Yes please." She paid for the dango and sat down at a table and closed her blue-grey eye. 'Huh... Peaches? That's odd I normally don't like peaches...' She opened her eye and looked up at the sky, pondering. 'Also... I normally don't smell things that far and this is behind a bath house.' She looked towards said place and checked to see if it was in use. Seeing the steam was proof enough for her to know it was working. She shrugged it off and started to hum happily, not giving it too much thought.

"My, my, someone seems happy today." The shop owner placed her plate down. Yuzuki looked at her and tilted her head a little bit.

"Oh? Well... I guess you can say... Aiko-sama was right about me." She smiled more and started to eat. Her mind was elsewhere, specifically on a certain spiky haired Uchiha, and not paying attention to how much she ordered.

Two cups of tea and five dango sticks latter, the shop owner came over and sat across from her. She had a bright grin on her face.

"Okay Lady Yuzuki you got to tell me: how far along are you?" she asked. Yuzuki blinked once, twice, then knitted her brows and tilted her head.

"How far along am I?" It was safe to say she was very confused by this question. The girl giggled and nodded her head.

"Your pregnancy silly! Remember that lady I told you about? She was with child and close to her due date. Our peach dango is popular with pregnant women," she stated. Yuzuki's eye widened as far as it could go. Slowly her brain started to process this information.

"Whoa there! Heheh, I am not with child. I just skipped breakfast today." She looked down, counted the sticks and blushed. "Oh my... I did eat quite a bit." Yuzuki looked up at saw the owner pouting slightly.

"Ah, that's too bad; I was hoping we would finally have some little Yuzuki's running around here." She got up and waved before getting back to work. Yuzuki got up and walked away, suddenly filled with doubt. Worry came over her as she thought about it.

'No... There's no way... I was careful when we had sex... Right?' She placed her hand on her head and rubbed it trying to think of that night but it was all too blurry and fast. Her hand fell at her side and she looked down. Her movements came to stop and she stood there thinking. A cart came up from behind her and it held fish inside of it. The smell hit Yuzuki hard and a wave of nausea hit her and her feet took her to behind a building leading to a small wooded area. She fell to her knees as she emptied out her stomach. Once it was over she wiped her mouth and slowly stood up, feeling weak and drained.

'Since when did the smell of fish make me sick?' She looked over to the cart with more worry etched on her pale face. Her body shook a bit as she walked back out and started walking again. 'No... No there is no way that I am pregnant... I know I was careful and used my medical jutsu to help burn up his sperm... I know I did!' Her breath was laboring as she walked. She needed to slow it down before she passed out. The woman soon came to an empty space rarely visited and leaned against the tree. She closed her eye and focused on breathing. 'In. Out. In and hold... and out.' She had her breathing under control and relaxed more.

"Okay... Say I wasn't careful then...Then there is a 50/50 chance that I am..." she couldn't say the words out loud. It was just so hard to think it. It had been her first time with Madara. "And I was there for three days..." It was clear she had a lot of thinking to do, not to mention she had to check and make sure. Doubly sure.

By the time Yuzuki got home it was dinner time and it was supposed to be her turn to cook. Though that wasn't the case when she walked in and saw Madara at the table. She raised a brow. "Madara?" she questioned. He looked up at her and nodded his head once.

"Your brother asked me over," he explained. She hadn't seen him in a while; since the sparring incident that went bad. Yuzuki sat down across from him and nodded her head.

"I see. I'm sorry I'm late..." She was pale and her face was blank trying not to show her worry. Madara frowned seeing her in this state. He knew her well enough to see through her charade. It worried him to some degree but he made sure her brothers couldn't tell. Hashirama walked into the room with the plates he held, a grin on his tanned face.

"Oh good, I was about to let Tobirama go and find you." He set a plate in front of her. When he noticed the condition she was in, he leaned down. "Are you feeling well Yu-chan?" he asked, worry writ plainly in his features. Yuzuki looked up at him and gave him a weak smile.

"I'm fine, no need to worry," she lied. Hashirama doubted that but nodded his head. Tobi entered the room and his eyes landed on his sister.

"There you are! I was worried." He then took his seat next to her and eyed her up and down. He noted the dirt stains on her knees and hummed softly before looking at Hashirama and jerked his white-haired head towards Yuzuki with a questioning look. His brother only answered him with a shrug before sitting next to Madara and eyed Yuzuki one last time. Suspicious.

They all placed their hands together. "Itadakimasu," they said in unison. After that Yuzuki nibbled here and there on her food. She hadn't noticed all the eyes on her. She was lost in her own thoughts. Tobi glared at Madara, automatically blaming the Uchiha for whatever mood he had put his sister in. Madara glared back before looking back at Yuzuki. A few more shifts of eyes and uncomfortable body motions happened before Hashirama gave in.

"Yuzuki... Are you sure you are okay? You're really pale and seem to have lost your appetite." He tilted his head. Yuzuki lifted her head to look at him and was about to answer when the smell of soy sauce hit her. She quickly ran off, hand over her mouth and threw up once more down the sink. She turned on the water and rinsed her mouth out and splashed some cool water on her warm face. Tobirama was the first one up and rushed to her side. He turned her around and looked at her, keeping his hands on her protectively. Her eye was wide as she looked at him.

"Are you okay? Do you have a fever? How long has this been going on-"

"-regnant…" she murmured. Tobirama stopped dead and looked down at her. He let go and backed up a bit. Yuzuki moved forward away from the sink.

"Wh-what?" he asked. He couldn't have heard that right. Yuzuki looked up at him and around the room. She swallowed thickly and blushed.

"I'm..." she swallowed the lump that was forming in her throat and backed up a bit.

"You're..." Hashirama pressed on. Yuzuki took a deep breath to steady her and looked up.

"I'm pregnant," she announced, her voice a bit shaky. The room was quiet, too quiet, and this made her worry even more as she looked at them and their shocked faces. "Umm... Guys?" she asked timidly. Hashirama smiled so wide that it looked like it would split his face in two and jumped up to wrap his arms around her shoulders tightly and hug her close in his excitement.

"I can't believe it! My baby sister has finally found someone and going to have kids! I'm gonna be an uncle!" he laughed happily as he held on tight to her. He stopped and moved back, looking down at her and frowning a bit. "Who is the father?" he asked eagerly. Though he was sure he already knew. Yuzuki froze and started to think.

"W-well you see umm... It uh... It's hmmm..." She was getting really worried about this. If she said who it was Tobi would blow a fuse. Who knew what Hashirama would do and Kami only knew how Madara would take it… Her eyes darted to Madara really fast. He hasn't said or done anything. She couldn't even see his face.

Madara couldn't believe it. He just really couldn't believe those words came out of her mouth. He was so overjoyed he was about to act like Hashirama and hug her with a big goofy grin on his face. But of course that would never do; he was an Uchiha after all.

"You see it's a really funny story... Uh well," she cleared her throat. Tobirama was angrily making a list in his head of possible men all to be hunted down later. Before another word could be said though she felt someone pull on her arm. She turned her head just as she was pulled up close and tight to Madara. He started to kiss her face lovingly, no longer caring if her brothers found out. He kissed her deeply on the lips, his happiness couldn't be contained and he didn't want to. Yuzuki found herself shocked at the display of affection but not repelled. She kissed him back.

Hashirama blinked a few times as he saw this. Never had he seen Madara show such a side to anyone, let alone himself. Hashirama had a hard time believing Madara was the father. He then looked at his brother and tensed.

Tobirama stood there with wide, dark eyes at this display off affection. At the same time his anger started to boil. The man he distrusted and was wary of was the father of Yuzuki's, his sisters, child. It couldn't have been right. It had to have been a trick.

Madara pulled back from the kiss and held her close, his warm arms wrapped around her lovingly. He didn't know what to say.

"Are you sure?" Tobi asked. Someone had to ask and he was the only one in the room willing to. Yuzuki pushed on Madara a bit to have him let go. He only turned them around so her back was against his chest. Yuzuki looked up at her brother.

"Yes I'm sure..." Her face was bright red as she stood there, embarrassed. "I checked, had Aiko-sama check, and then another doctor checked. I'm pregnant and Madara is the father," she said timidly. "He also knows," she added. Her blue-grey eye stayed focused on her brother. Tobi still couldn't believe it. He didn't know what to say or how to act; his feelings were mixed up at the moment. To make sure he didn't hurt Yuzuki, or anyone else for that matter, he buried his fingers in his white hair and left the room, retreating out side. Hashirama moved closer to his sister and smiled reassuringly.

"Give him time, Yuzuki... I'm sure he'll be okay with this," he promised.
