I don't own Naruto.

#37. Convince

Hinata crossed her arms in a poor imitation of anger.

"N-Naruto-kun, I'm not the one that's supposed to be c-convincing you to do work!" She said, addressing him more formally for added emphasis.

Naruto sighed and grinned up at her from behind his desk, kicking his feet back and pushing the brim of his hat up off of his face.

The Hokage headdress had an annoying habit of slipping forward and obstructing his vision. Especially, he remembered with chagrin, in the middle of important meetings as he was trying to prove himself to much older and established heads of state.

"So I'm supposed to be convincing you to do work?" he asked, confused.

"No," she said with quiet patience, well beyond her twenty years of age. "You're s-supposed to be…"

"How about I convince you to do something else instead?" Naruto leaned forward over the desk, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. The movement caused his hat to slip forward onto his face.

Hinata blushed at his suggestiveness, but quickly burst into laughter at his childlike appearance.

"Actually, I h-have to leave. S-Sakura is expecting me at the hospital."

Naruto frowned.

"The hospital? I didn't know you were sick! I know I've been busy, but you have to tell me these things…" He paused, thinking for a moment.

Hinata watched him with pride. Since he had become Hokage, Naruto had undergone an ever-so-slight transformation from class clown to a down to earth head of state. She doubted anyone else had noticed it, but she felt that her dreams of the amazing person that Naruto could be were finally happening in real life.

Of course, Hinata mused, after shadowing his every move for several years, and now being married to him, her opinion may have been slightly biased.

"Are you feverish? Does your stomach hurt? Are you throwing up everywhere?"

Hinata yelped and leapt back, as Naruto suddenly appeared next to her, putting his hand on her forehead.

Shaking her head violently from side to side, Hinata blushed and waved her arms in front of her.

"N-no it's n-nothing really. Just the flu or s-something."

"Just the flu or something!?" Naruto burst out. He placed his hands on her back and began pushing her out of the room.

"That's it! Go home! Get some rest!"

"R-really, I'm fine," Hinata said weakly, but she soon found herself thrown out of the Hokage's office. Naruto shut the door quickly and she heard the lock click.

"I'll see you at home!" Came his muffled reply from behind the door.

Hinata sighed and shook her head.

"HINATAAA!"

Startled, Hinata turned to see Sakura barreling down the hallway towards her. She smiled and waved politely as Sakura screeched to a halt in front of her.

"Sakura-chan, I was just on my way to see you at the hospital…are you okay?"

Hinata looked over her friend, concerned as Sakura was doubled over and breathing heavily.

"Con ~huff~ congratulations!" Sakura sputtered out, embracing Hinata in a very tight bear hug.

"T-th-thank you?" Hinata stuttered out, more from being crushed by Sakura than from her usual speech impediment.

"I wanted to be the first one to congratulate you!" Sakura said, finally releasing Hinata. She quickly continued before Hinata could reply.

"We just ran your tests, and you're pregnant! If it's a boy, you better hope it turns out better than Naruto!"

"I'll be p-proud if it turns out like Naruto!" Hinata said stubbornly before the information began to sink in. She turned to Sakura and blushed.

"I'm r-really…?"

Sakura grabbed both of Hinata's hands and nodded.

"Let's go tell the knucklehead," she said, nodding towards the closed door.

Hinata nodded and slowly knocked on the door.

Naruto quickly burst out, his hat perched precariously on his head.

"What is it? I heard yelling! You're really sick aren't you! I told you to go home!"

"You dummy! She isn't sick, she's pregnant!" Sakura barged in, before Hinata could open her mouth.

Hinata stared at Naruto as he scrutinized her body. She blushed, and willed herself not to faint. Fortunately, she was distracted as Naruto crumpled to the ground.

"Naruto! Are you okay?"

"He's fine, the idiot's just fainted," Sakura said, exasperated.

A/N: Uguu…I really dreaded writing the 'Hinata-gets-pregnant' drabble. Hopefully it was funny enough and not too cliché.
