Hinata took a step towards Ren when Temari blocked her way. Her eyes were burning with anger.
"Don't you dare touch him." She hissed.
Hinata looked at her. She couldn't find the words to say. Ren was Sasuke's son. There was no doubt about that. He was the spitting image of Sasuke except for his hair; his hair was like Sasori's and Gaara's. It hung downwards perfectly, but everything else was like Sasuke, was like her husband.
"H-how?" Hinata whispered.
For a moment Hinata thought she saw guilt and sadness wash over Temari's face.
"It was an accident." Temari said.
"So it's true." Hinata's voice cracked.
Temari closed her eyes. "When Sasuke and I were dating, I got pregnant. I didn't know I was pregnant until I had moved to Paris. I couldn't tell Sasuke that I was having his baby. I had already hurt him by leaving him. If I took away his son too it would've killed him so I kept it a secret. "Temari looked at her. "I thought about abortion but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Sasori and Gaara help support me with Ren, so it's not like he doesn't have a fatherly figure in his life. When I couldn't take hiding the truth from Ren I told Sasuke about him. Sasuke used to come and visit us in Paris." she paused. "That is until he met you."
Hinata looked Sasori who was looking at the ground shamefully. "You knew Sasori?"
Sasori bit his lip and didn't answer her.
"Mommy, who's this lady with uncle Sasori?" Ren tugged on Temari's shirt while eyeing Hinata.
"Ren, this is daddy's wife." Temari replied gently.
Ren scrunched up his nose. "I thought you were daddy's wife."
"Oh no sweetie."
Ren walked to Hinata. She caught her breath. He looked so much like Sasuke.
"My name is Ren Uchiha." He smiled.
Hinata took a step back. Her eyes began to burn. She shook her head. She didn't want to believe it.
Ren embraced her making her gasp. "If daddy loves you then Ren loves you too."
"….." Temari watched them.
"No…." Hinata whispered. "NO!" She screamed and pushed Ren to the floor. Ren stared up at her hurt, but Temari didn't move.
"I can't take it!" Hinata screamed and bolted for the door.
"Hinata!" Sasori ran after her.
Temari bent down besides a crying Ren and tried to calm him. "It's okay sweetie."
Hinata couldn't believe what she had just seen. How could Sasuke have had a baby with Temari and why hadn't he told her. Why hadn't anyone told her?
"Hinata please stop!" Sasori grabbed her hand and spun her around to face him.
"You knew!" She rasped out. "You knew and you didn't tell me!"
"I thought it would be best if Sasuke told you." Sasori argued.
"You know damn well that Sasuke would have never told me anything like that!"
"Hinata!"
Hinata turned around to see Sasuke smiling at her. "I got the job! Isn't that great?" His smile disappeared when he recognized the painful look on Hinata's face.
"What's wrong?"
"I can't believe I married a liar like you!" Hinata screamed.
Sasuke blinked. "What? Hinata what are you talking about?"
"When were you going to tell me?"
"Tell you what? Hinata I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Ren! When were you going to tell me about Ren?" Hinata cried.
All of the blood drained from Sasuke's face at once. His body become solid like a statue. It didn't even look like he was breathing, not that Hinata cared at this point.
"I thought we were done with secrets Sasuke." Hinata said. "I thought I was finally gonna be able to live my life happily. Now I'm starting to regret this life that has been laid down in front of me. I…I can't be with you at this moment. I'm leaving." She walked by him.
Sasuke only moved when her words had finally finished progressing through his mind.
"Wait!" He called after her. "You're leaving me?"
Hinata stopped but didn't turn around. "For now yes."
"But we just got married." He reached out to her. "Hinata you can't leave me. Who's going to take care of you and the babies?" He asked.
Hinata placed her hand on her stomach. He was right, who was going to take care of her? Sakura had moved in with Itachi and Tenten had moved in with Neji. She couldn't go to the Hyuuga clan because she knew her parents would make a big deal out of it….
"I'll do it." Sasori said.
"What?" Hinata and Sasuke both looked at him.
Sasori looked so serious. He really wanted to help her. "I will take care of you and your twins. You don't need to worry."
"But doesn't Naruto and Gaara live with you?" Sasuke asked annoyed.
"So?" Hinata shot him a glare. "I'd rather be with them then with you." She retorted.
"Daddy!"
Hinata cringed at that voice. She looked behind Sasuke and saw Ren running up to Sasuke.
"Ren?" Sasuke turned around. He stumbled back surprised when Ren jumped into his arms.
"I've missed you." Ren smiled at Sasuke.
Sasuke smiled back. "And I've missed you." He said.
Hinata felt something tug at her heart. The way Sasuke was looking at Ren there was no doubt he was the father. Even though she tried to deny it and make up some excuse for all of it, the reunion in front of her confirmed everything.
"Daddy, why don't you live with us?" Ren asked.
Sasuke hesitated. He placed Ren on the ground. "Daddy has his own family to look after." He spoke carefully.
Ren raised an eyebrow confused. Hinata couldn't help but smile. That was exactly what Sasuke always did. That little thing right there.
"What do you mean?"
Sasuke placed his hand on Ren's head. "Ren, mommy and daddy do not see each other anymore."
"But why? Is it because of me?" Ren whimpered.
Sasuke chuckled. "No, it's not because of you. I'm living with someone I love."
"So does that mean you don't love us anymore?"
Sasuke's right eye began to twitch. 'Why the hell does he keep asking these questions? Well, I guess I'm not explaining things very clearly.'
"Ren, I married someone else. She's your step mom. You know what step mom is right?"
Ren nodded his head. "Is it that lady behind you? The one who pushed me to the ground and ran out the store crying?"
Hinata caught her breath and could see Sasuke's muscles tightened.
"Yeah, that's her."
Ren looked at Hinata then back at Sasuke. "Then how about you two move to Paris with mommy and me."
Sasuke sighed and drew him into his arms. "I'm sorry Ren. I can't do that."
"Why not? You do love that woman more than us don't you?" Ren cried pushing him away.
"Ren, don't please."
"Fuck you!" Ren yelled.
Hinata gasped and pinched Sasori who had begun to laugh.
"W-who taught you that?" Sasuke asked. "We don't use that word Ren."
"Whatever." Ren looked away.
"Ren." Sasuke grabbed his arm. "We…do…not…use…that…word."
Ren looked at Sasuke again angrily. "Fuck…you." He said pronouncing every syllable and then ran back into the store.
"Sasori cut it out!" Hinata said.
Sasori dropped to his knees laughing. "Did you see the look on Sasuke's face? His kid just dropped the f-bomb on him. Ahahahahaha!"
Hinata looked at Sasuke who was still in the same position. It was a big shock to him too.
"Sasuke, you should go and explain it more to him. Temari is in there too so…" Hinata paused. "I'll see you in a week or two. Goodbye Sasuke." She whispered and turned to walk away with Sasuke. She didn't have to turn around to see if he was going to stop her because she knew he wasn't. At that moment, both of their worlds had seemed to be crashing down.
"What? He never told you?" Gaara shouted.
"Gaara, please don't shout." Sasori groaned.
"No fair Sasuke." Naruto whimpered. "I'm your best fiend. You should've told me too."
Hinata sipped on her tea. She was thinking maybe it wasn't a good idea to stay with Sasori.
"That bastard. I should kill him." Gaara cracked the edge of the table with his hand.
"Gaara don't destroy the table!" Sasori said smacking his hand away.
"Gaara, it's alright." Hinata looked at him.
Gaara stood up and looked at her. "See that's one thing I hate about you Hinata. You're too nice. He never told you he had a son? What kind of husband would do that?"
"A husband like Sasuke." Naruto mumbled.
"I'm pretty sure he would've told me." Hinata whispered.
"So you're sticking up for him?" Gaara yelled. "Hinata all he does is hurt you! I can't see that happen to you! Maybe you should've married me instead!"
Hinata bit her lip and everything became silent. Sasori leaned his head back against the couched and groaned. Naruto looked at Hinata troubled.
"He's right. Hinata, I've known Sasuke longer then anyone. I know how he thinks and how he is and honestly." Naruto placed his hand on hers. "I think marrying Sasuke was a bad idea."
Hinata placed her hand on her stomach. "Even if I stopped loving Sasuke. I couldn't get a divorce. What would happen to Misato and Tatsuya? The Hyuuga clan would be willing to help, but I wouldn't want them to think I was a weak person."
"Then you should let me take care of you and the babies!" Gaara said. "I will work hard to write song so I can provide a good life for you and them. I won't let you down!" He said.
Hinata blushed. "Gaara you're too nice."
"I'm not doing this out of kindness." He sat next to her. "Hinata, I'm doing this because I love you. I want you to choose me in the end!" He said and kissed her forcefully.
"Didn't see that one coming." Sasori smiled.
"….." Naruto stared at them mouth agape. 'Oh boy, Sasuke's not going to like this one bit.'
As much as her head tried to tell her to stop. Her body wouldn't listen to its commands and she found herself kissing him back. The truth was….she was still in love with Gaara and something in her heart was telling her that she had made the wrong choice.
