~2 months later~
She had yet to tell him. At 22 years old Kitsune was pregnant...again.
At least Hisashi was in the Academy now. He was so excited to learn how to be a ninja, like his parents. He took more after his father than anything. Even though he was only five Hisashi looked exactly like Kakashi, except the eyes still, he even wore a mask over the lower part of his face. All the girls tried to get his attention but nothing worked.
Kitsune sighed just thinking about both of the men in her life. She would also have to tell Hisashi that he was going to be a big brother. 'I wonder how well that is going to go? Hopefully as good as it will with Kakashi.' She couldn't help but think.
Glancing at the clock she saw she still had time before Hisashi was to be out of school. Kakashi was still on a mission.
"Might as well go tell Sarutobi-sama and get taken off the active roster." She said to herself.
Walking along the road to the Hokage tower she thought back to how she found out she was pregnant.
~flashback~
It was time for the yearly physicals and Kitsune prayed that she had a female Medic. When it came time for the question of when her last period was she couldn't answer.
The Medic took the silence as a bad sign. "How do you not know? You're one of the top Medic's we have."
"I've been so busy that I haven't thought about it." She retorted.
The Medic brought her chakra to hands and hovered them over Kitsune's stomach.
"Congratulations. You're about 2 months along, but come back in 2 weeks and we'll do all the correct procedures."
Walking out of the hospital she couldn't believe it. She thought that her and Kakashi had been careful. Yes, they wanted more children but they had never really talked about when. Guess that the was number one topic for conversation when he returned from his mission.
~End of flashback~
Raising her hand she knocked on the office door.
"Come in."
Opening the door she saw the Sandaime sitting at his desk, his pipe between his teeth.
"Kitsune, what can I do for you?"
"It's a personal matter Hokage-sama." Seeing the nod of his head she continued. "I need to be taken off the active roster."
He looked her up and down real quick with a confused look on his face. "You seem to be perfectly healthy. I'll take you off of the roster but how long do you need to be off of it?"
She knew what he was trying to do and damnit, it was going to work.
"Seven months." Kitsune said with a firm voice.
He smiled around his pipe, "Congratulations. Have you told anyone else yet?"
'Damn the nosy old man.' She thought.
"No, not yet." She smiled. "That's all I needed to say Hokage-sama. If its okay I'll take my leave."
"Of course. Tell your boys I said hi and I'll send Kakashi your way when he returns."
"ArigatÅ." She said with a small bow and left the room.
Picking the boys up from the Academy was easy, for the first time in months.
"How was your day?" Kitsune asked hoping to get them to talk.
"It was awesome. There's so much to learn about and I want to know it all." Naruto excitedly said.
She silently chuckled and shook her head. 'He's just like his daddy...and mother. Yes more like her than anything.'
They told everything about the lessons. Hisashi having to interrupt several times to correct something. So much like his father it wasn't funny.
Making dinner was easy, except for feeling faint a few times because of the heat.
Just as she was about the call the boys back into the kitchen, she felt arms around her waist. Turning around she was greeted with a kiss.
"Hey. When did you get back?"
"Just a little bit ago. Are you OK?" Kakashi asked, noticing her flushed face.
"I'm fine, just a little tired."
"There's something else too."
"It's something that has to be said to everyone in the house, not just you. So just have a little more patience."
"Ok." He said with a quick kiss before the kids walked in.
"Daddy you're home!" Hisashi yelled running up and launching himself at Kakashi.
Naruto was a little more shy. He knew that Kitsune was sort of a sister since his parents had adopted her and that Kakashi was with her. He didn't know how he should feel but guessed it was better than being stuck with just anyone.
Naruto couldn't help the smile that appeared on his face when he felt Kakashi ruffle his hair.
'He looks just like you Minato sensei.'
Dinner was normal as usual. Talking about each other's day and learning how the boys were doing in the Academy.
As the end of dinner drew to an end Kakashi spoke up.
"What was it you wanted to announce?" He asked looking at Kitsune.
Taking a breath she looked at each of her boys. "I...Hisashi you're going to be a big brother." Noticing the look on Naruto's face she continued, "You too Naruto. You are a part of this family and always will be." She reached over and squeezed his hand.
When Naruto smiled at her she couldn't help but smile back. 'He looks so much like his father.'
Looking towards Kakashi she waited to see what he would say.
"How far are you?"
"About 2 months." Came her reply. "Yes I have already told the Hokage."
"Boys go get ready for bed. We'll be there in a moment."
After they left he stood up and walked around the table. Grabbing her hands he pulled her up. "I'm happy about this Kitsune." He whispered in her ear as he pulled her closer to him.
"I was worried because I thought that we were being careful and we haven't had any time to talk about having anymore or when it would be a good time. I know we're still young but that doesn't really have anything to do with it. Since no one knows when our last day will be..." Kakashi broke off her rambling with a kiss.
"Its fine. We'll be okay. Nothing will be happen to us. I promise." He rubbed his hands up and down her arms before looking at her.
Giving her one of his special smiles just reserved for her he told her, "Let's go put those two to bed before they come looking for us."
With his arm around her shoulder they walked down the hall to the boys shared bedroom.
