She Deserves Better

Authors' Note: Thanks for the reviews. We hope that everyone enjoys the Honeymoon Chapter and then it's onto the epilogue ;)

Chapter 38

Once the happy couple are safely out of firing range, meaning…already at the airport after bowing out of the reception, Kakashi spots Hiashi. "So, shall we break the news? Sasuke should be safe from his father-in-law's wrath now."

Itachi nods as he looks around warily. "I suppose it should be safe now." He agrees with his lover and sighs in relief when he notices a pair of meddling relatives walking towards them. Apparently, Madara and Izuna wanted to help.

Newly returned from getting the happy couple to the airport, Madara strides over to his other great-nephew. "So, your little brother left you to break the news, I see."

"Yes, he really can be foolish sometimes." Itachi laughs and Izuna shoots him a sympathetic look. He knew all about foolish brothers.

"Well, did you have a plan for breaking the news to Hiashi? Or are you looking for backup?" Madara smirks, eager to see the look on Hiashi's face.

Kakashi raises an eyebrow. "Did you have something in mind, General?" The title was a matter of courtesy, even if the man was long since retired.

"I may have a few ideas…" Madara's smirk widens, becoming downright mischievous. "Though I find that the direct approach might be most entertaining in this case."

Itachi shakes his head in amusement. "Try not to give the man a heart attack." He sighs dramatically. "We wouldn't want to kill off one of my niece or nephew's grandfathers."

"Well, then if you have a better plan of attack, be my guest." Madara chuckles. "Just do be sure not to step on a landmine while being too careful."

"I doubt there is really any good way to break the news." Izuna sighs as he glances at Hiashi. "Let's just do this together. There is safety in numbers." He nods sagely.

"You're right about that." Kakashi watches the businessman warily as he and his wife are getting ready to leave. "Well, no sense in delaying things any longer." He wraps an arm around Itachi's waist. "Shall we?"

Itachi smiles and nods as he heads off with Kakashi. "Yes, we shall." And with that, he walks over to Hiashi. "You may wish to sit down for this." He didn't want the man to faint and hit his head or something.

Hiashi blinks. Those words were never good news, especially when it involved the Uchiha. "Very well. Emiko?" He moves to the closest table, holding out a chair for his wife.

"I'm sure that they are overreacting." Emiko giggles as she sits down next to her husband. "How bad can it be?"

"Well it's actually wonderful news." Itachi rubs the back of his head sheepishly as he hands the Hyuga Patriarch the card. "Read it and I suppose congratulations are in order."

Hiashi looks at the post card, one from a trip that Sasuke and Hinata had taken to California for a couple of weeks during the summer. Then he turns it over to see Hinata's elegant handwriting.

Dearest Father and Mother,

By the time you read this, Sasuke and I will be on our Honeymoon. So please don't kill my husband for also being the father of your first grandchild. We're both very excited about the pregnancy and Sasuke has been very attentive in his fatherly duties.

Love, Hinata.

Hiashi's eyes widen and his hands twitch. Hinata was… "PREGNANT!?" The Uchiha had gone too far! "I understand that it is unreasonable to expect two consenting adults to refrain from being intimate, but how could they be so reckless!?" Obviously they knew this before they were married. "Is THAT why he proposed to my daughter!?"

Emiko blinks and just stares at the card in shock. "Well I wasn't expecting that." She smiles and swats Hiashi lightly. "Calm down, My Love. We don't want you to have a stroke." And that was a very real possibility with the way that he was carrying on.

Kakashi could see that this was going nowhere good. So he coughs loudly for attention. "Actually, it seems that she didn't tell him until AFTER he proposed. It was why she wanted such a short engagement."

Itachi rubs the back of his head sheepishly more and Izuna looks rather uncomfortable. They were the more tactful members of the family, after all. "Yes, Sasuke didn't realize that she was pregnant until after he proposed. So it wasn't like that." He had to defend his brother, after all.

"What are you upset about?" Emiko clucks her tongue at him. "He married her. It's all very proper now. Maybe, they went a bit out of order, but still this is wonderful news." She beams at the knowledge she was going to be a grandmother. "We're going to be grandparents and I'm sure the baby will be absolutely adorable."

Hiashi steams a little, not at all pleased by how irresponsible young people could be. But…his wife did have a point. And he had long since been pushing Hinata to marry and give him grandchildren. He just never thought it would be with an Uchiha. "I suppose…even if it is with the Uchiha boy…"

She shakes her head and kisses his cheek. "Honestly, your standards may be a bit too high." Emiko smiles at her husband and caresses his cheek. "The man saved the lives of hundreds of people and survived God knows what as a prisoner of war." She really needed to reason with him, it seemed. "And despite all that, he seems to have made a full physical and seemingly even mental recovery. He's got a good job and he married her as is proper. They look so happy together. Who cares what his last name is?"

"Fine…" Hiashi could never fight his wife over anything. And the boy HAD survived what would have broken most people, seemi+ngly more intact than anyone could have predicted. He still couldn't believe that his daughter was an Uchiha, though. "But if he does ANYTHING to upset her, I'll show him what true terror is."

"Of course, you will my love." Emiko chuckles. She didn't have the heart to point out how foolish he was being. "I'm sure that he's trembling." If Sasuke could survive being a POW, he could survive whatever her husband threw at him, but it would be improper to point that out.

Kakashi smiles, highly doubting that Hiashi could do anything that would make Sasuke tremble. His subordinate was a resilient one, if nothing else. "Well, I'm sure that the two of them will have plenty of fun in Spain. Assuming, of course, that they ever leave the hotel room."

Izuna looks at Kakashi in concern. "Let's not push our luck." The man was certainly treading on thin ice. Hiashi probably wouldn't react well to being reminded what happened on Honeymoons.

Hiashi twitches, before steeling himself and shooting a quick glare at the colonel. "I'm sure that Hinata will be eager to explore, and Sasuke will likely go along with it." After all, his daughter was raised to be more cultured that…that.

"That's what we said on our honeymoon and about nine months later, Hinata came into our lives." Emiko giggles at the memory.

Another twitch and Hiashi wraps an arm around his wife's waist, guiding her from the ballroom. Madara chuckles at the sight. "Ah, the Hyugas, it's always amusing to see how proper they pretend to be. Though Hiashi really should try to have that stick pulled out of his ass." Honestly, Madara couldn't believe the size of their family sometimes. He could believe the size of his own, though it was actually rather small, considering how passionate an Uchiha could be. Then again, maybe Sasuke would help to bolster those numbers.

"At his age, I suspect that it's permanently lodged there." Izuna chuckles and shakes his head. "Well you know how Hyugas are." He smiles and Itachi breathes out a sigh of relief.

It was over now. They had managed to tell Hiashi about his impending grandfatherhood and everyone was still in one piece. "Well I guess we should go and enjoy the rest of the party." He smiles and leads Kakashi off. "Now, that we've dealt with my foolish little sister's request." After all, Hinata was his sister-in-law now.

Oh…Kakashi could definitely indulge Itachi in that much.

Sasuke kisses Hinata as he drops their bags on one of the couches of the Honeymoon Suite. "Welcome to Spain." It had been a long flight across the Atlantic, but at least now they were safely out of range of her father. And they had no reason to even leave the room for a couple of weeks unless they got really bored.

Hinata smiles and returns the kiss. "It's beautiful here." It truly was, but the bluenette doubted that she was going to see much more than the glorious hotel room. "The rose petals on the bed were a nice touch." Indeed there were hundreds of red rose petals on the white bed in the shape of a heart.

"And you're much more beautiful." Sasuke's eyes ran appreciatively over the short lacy white dress that Hinata had changed into before leaving the reception. After all, the wedding dress was pretty, but not very practical for wearing outside or escaping in. "I'm sure that there's some champagne stashed somewhere around here, if you'd like some."

"Sasuke, you know I didn't drink any champagne at the wedding." Hinata kisses his cheek. "I'd rather not risk it." She was pregnant. "Maybe, in a few months." She smiles at him and snuggles her husband a bit. "But if you want some, feel free."

That's right, she'd had the sparkling peach spritzer. It looked close enough to champagne though, that anyone could have mistaken it for the commonly served champagne. Sasuke shakes his head. "I'm fine, I'm not really a drinker. That welcome back party was an exception." It was the one time he would consider himself to have gotten drunk since high school.

She nods and burrows against him, smiling. "Alright. Well I have a surprise for you, but I need you to be a good soldier and follow my instructions to the letter." Hinata looks up at him. "Can you do that?"

"Yes…?" Sasuke was a bit bemused by the request, but if his princess wanted to surprise him, then he doubted it would be anything he didn't like. "What do you want me to do?"

"Good." Hinata smiles and gestures to the bed. "I want you to strip and lay on your back for me. On the bed. With your eyes closed until I tell you to open them." She couldn't believe she was doing this, but they were married and Sasuke was doing so much better. Maybe, she could get away with it now.

Warning Lemon

Sasuke quirks an eyebrow, but doesn't protest. He removes and folds his jacket, being careful about the pins as he lays it on the couch. Nonetheless, a striptease was fine with him, it would just make her all the more eager for some fun. And he did enjoy teasing her as the tie and dress shirt were the next to go, quickly followed by his pants, socks, and boxers, his shoes already lying abandoned near the closet. "And just what kind of surprise does my princess have for me, I wonder…" He shakes his head as he closes his eyes and lies back on the bed, his hands bent back behind his head.

Hinata blushes and smiles as she watches her husband's slow and seductive striptease. "I'm still not sure, how I got so lucky." The bluenette quickly discards her simple dress and pulls out a pair of fuzzy dark blue handcuffs.

The new bride quickly checks to make sure that Sasuke's eyes were still closed as she slaps the cuffs on him and straddles his waist. "Okay. You can open your eyes now." She was wearing her bridal lingerie that Mikoto had given her and well, it was both elegant and racy at the same time.

The two thinnest white straps in the world managed to hold it up over her shoulders. The snowy white corset hung dangerously low on her ample, creamy breasts with a flirtatious, pink bow in the center of it. The white lace that covered most of her stomach was semi see through and clung to her every curve, before ending with two pink bows on either side.

That wasn't all though. She also wore a skimpy, matching thong and had two white straps that reached over most of her bare legs until they found the matching white stockings. She felt a bit embarrassed at the fact that most of her backside was also exposed as that was one tiny thong, even by thong standards.

Sasuke had been surprised enough by the handcuffs. He knew that she'd wanted to try it for a while, but was always too skittish about his issues to give it a fair try. Though…fuzzy handcuffs were definitely not the same as what he was used to. Still, the handcuffs were NOT what had his attention. No, what held his attention was the extremely sexy lingerie that his wife was wearing while straddling his waist. And…well, that was quite the distraction, and a feast for the eyes. His eyes, and no one else's. "I'm definitely surprised." And hard, he was getting very hard very fast.

She smiles and kisses him. "In a good way?" Hinata glances down at him, checking to see if the handcuffs were okay. So far, so good. No panicking.

"You clearly haven't looked at yourself in a mirror if you need to ask THAT." Honestly, did she have an idea what she DID to him!?

"Good. I'm glad you like it." Hinata smiles as she leans over and nibbles on his ear. "Now, I want you to be a good soldier and beg." Her hands trail over the muscular expanse of his chest and abs suggestively.

Sasuke hums with amusement. "You want me to beg?" No good soldier begged. They followed orders, sure, but never begged. Though the nibbling did tickle a little, that much he would admit to himself.

She kisses his neck, nipping a bit. "Mhm. I want to hear you beg." Hinata sucks on his collarbone a bit, before pulling away and putting her hair up in a messy ponytail and toying with the straps of her corset. "I'm sure that you can manage that."

Sasuke groans quietly. His wife was good at teasing him, or maybe a cruel tease at times. How was he supposed to grant THIS request? Begging was…wholly unnatural to him. And even without his training, he wasn't sure if his pride would allow it. "That…is a very difficult request to fulfill, Princess."

"Yes, I can see how HARD this is for you." She smiles slyly and covers his chest in kisses, slowly stroking his erection with one hand. "But I have absolute faith that you can complete this mission successfully."

Trying to keep from groaning, Sasuke presses his head back into the pillow, staring at Hinata with one eye closed. "You're a horrible tease, you know that?" Though he was pretty sure she could tell just by how quickly he was breathing. And he could tell how mean she was planning on being by the redness of the marks littering his chest.

She smiles slyly as she slowly pushes the straps down. "I know." Hinata practically purrs at him. "I learned from the best." The top of her corset was now in very real danger of falling down and revealing her perky breasts to his view. "You."

Sasuke's eyes follow the movements, entranced by the sight above him. It almost reminded him of their first time together. She seemed to get some kind of thrill out of being on top. "Hinata…" And damn it was she good at playing with his cock. So good that it was rather disappointing when she stopped. Though…not as much as it could have been, considering the show he was getting.

"I like it when you say my name." She slides the top down past her breasts. "But I'm not sure that it really counts as begging." Hinata strokes him again and nips at his stomach playfully. "I want to hear how much you want me, before I uncuff you." She was playing a dangerous game and she knew it. Odds were, he could probably get out of the cuffs...if he really wanted to. "Then I'll let you fuck me." Though that just made it more exciting and she supposed Sasuke had always brought out her more deviant side. She felt like she could get away with almost anything around him.

His breath hitches at her words, her gestures, just…everything. "Damn it, Hinata…" She really was so deviant sometimes. He bucks up against her, trying to get her to change her mind. "Please Hinata…" That counted as begging, right? Well, maybe not much, but still.

Hinata smiles. Well it was a start. "Please what?" He was stubborn. She was probably going to have to take drastic measures. With that in mind, she moves her hand away from his throbbing cock and sneaks it underneath the lacy thong, while the other moves to her breasts.

If this didn't work, she was probably going to have to take drastic measures. "What do you want, baby?" She leans down and kisses him. Slowly and suggestively fondling her own breasts as her clit and rapidly slickening folds with her fingertips. She was already getting wet. "Do you want me to let you out of the cuffs or maybe suck you off?"

Sasuke's brain froze at the choice. Cuffs or having her mouth… Well, his upper brain didn't know what to think, and she was already leading him around by the dick anyway, so why not. "Mouth. I want your mouth, please…" His breath was coming in short pants, pupils dilated in onyx eyes.

"Alright." She caresses his cheek and smiles. "I love you. You know that, right?" Hinata slides down, moving closer and closer towards his arousal. "All I could think about on the plane and car rides here was this." She gives the sensitive tip a little lick. "Of cuffing you. Having your hands on me everywhere. Riding you. Having you take me." And with that, she takes him into her hot mouth and begins sucking as she looks up at him with adoring and lustful eyes.

It was all he could do not to choke her as his hips thrust up into her mouth. "Ah! Hinata!" There was only one place he preferred to sheath himself, and if this was what was making him wait, well…he could be patient. At least for a little while. Those eyes of hers sure made it hard to focus, though.

She smiles rather pleased at this reaction as she sucks harder. The bluenette tries her best never to break eye contact as she glides her head up and down the length of his cock. He seemed to like it better when she looked at him and well, she liked watching him get off anyway.

Sasuke could feel his cheeks heating as his climax came closer and closer. "Hina…almost there…" After all, how was he supposed to last when he had his gorgeous wife sucking him off while her sexy bridal lingerie was falling off her shoulders? He could already feel his balls tightening with his release.

She releases his cock from her mouth for a moment. "That's okay. You don't have to hold back." Before going back to licking and sucking him, even faster.

He couldn't even if he wanted to. Sasuke came hard with a roar, bolts of pleasure racing through his veins as endorphins relaxed his muscles."God damn…you've got a mouth on you, Hina." He pants hard, his heart racing as he slowly comes down from his orgasmic high.

"Well practice makes perfect." Hinata giggles at him and kisses her lover. "I could say the same about you though."

Sasuke kisses back, his mind in a haze of pleasure. "Well, I do like to practice." It was, after all, why their baby was here. "I can't do a whole lot of practicing all tied up, though." Well, he probably could, but it would be a bit uncomfortable. He holds his hands above his head. "Have the key tucked away in that lacy tease?"

Hinata nods. "Don't worry, I have the key." She smiles slyly at him. "And I'll use it once you beg."

Oh you had to be kidding. She was STILL waiting for him to BEG!? Sasuke groans and closes his eyes, lowering his voice. "Hinata…please let me hold you." Or he'd break the cuffs, take her ire, and have his way with her anyway.

"Your begging needs a little work, My Love." Hinata grabs the key out of the nearby drawer though. "But I'm sure you'll make it up to me in other ways." She smiles and quickly undoes the cuffs.

With his hands free, Sasuke wraps his arms around Hinata, squeezing her tightly as her flips them over, pressing his body down on her to keep her still as he nips her ear. "I can definitely make it up to you. Begging just doesn't come naturally to me." And he was usually good at following orders. Sometimes, though…his pride just got in the way if it was something inconsequential.

She mews cutely. "That sounds promising." Hinata smiles up at him. "How did you plan to make it up to me?"

"Well first…" He reaches for the clasps of the corset, his fingers learning quickly and working them open. "By getting you out of this uncomfortable looking corset." After all, judging by the way her breasts bounce as he pulls the constricting fabric away, it was done up rather tightly. He dips his head down to suckle at her breasts, leaving marks on them before taking a nipple into his mouth and sucking hard.

"That s-sounds like a good start." She sighs in pleasure and arches against him. "You have no idea how hard it was to get into that thing." It was like a Chinese (well Japanese) torture device, but the results had been worth it! The look on Sasuke's face had been priceless.

Sasuke hums amusedly. "Well, like I said, feel free to wear nothing at all around the house. There's no need to…constrict yourself." His lips wrap around the neglected nipple, hi fingers traveling down to slide under the soaked thong. She was so wet, so eager, so…excited. He thoroughly enjoyed being able to arouse her so much without even doing anything. Though he did prefer a more hands on approach. Or in this case, fingers in!

Hinata whimpers wantonly at his touch. "Ah! I'll k-keep that in mind!" He could drive her so crazy with just a few caresses. "Sasuke!" She bucks against his fingers. "Please, baby!" Hinata knew that she was only half coherent, but she could already feel her lower half quivering in anticipation from his teasing. He'd be able to figure it out.

Sasuke smirks against her skin. Baby? That was a new one. But he wasn't going to protest it if she was this far gone. "Alright." Sliding off the thong and white stockings, he tosses them aside, not really caring where they land. Then, he leans down to nip at her other ear. "Just remember…you were the one who decided to be a tease." His fingers pump deep inside her, loosening her up a little as his thumb rubs her clit.

"Y-You liked it though!" Oh God that felt good. She squirms against him. "And you know it!" Maybe she shouldn't have teased him that much because she had also been teasing herself. Now, she was soaking wet and completely at the Major's mercy.

"Can't deny that…" Though Sasuke was pretty sure he'd like this part even better. He slides his fingers out as he kisses up her neck, thrusting into her perfectly, like they'd done so many times before. And with practiced ease, he starts to move, knowing where to strike inside her without even thinking about it.

Hinata gasps and moans as she wraps her legs around him tightly, sinking her nails into his back. "Yes! J-Just like that." God, that felt incredible. The feeling of him being so deep inside her was like pure ecstasy, making her scream his name.

Sasuke pulled back, slamming back inside her as hard as he was comfortable with. After all, there was a little passenger to consider. "Hina, scream for me." He wanted to hear it, hear her scream his name again. After all, the room was soundproof, right? Not much point in not making the Honeymoon Suite soundproof.

"S-SASUKE!" The not so blushing bride had no problem doing exactly yes. "So good!" She arches against him sinfully as she tries desperately to match his pace. Eager to get more of his touch. more of this feeling.

Pressing his hands to the headboard, Sasuke slows his pace just enough so that there's no danger of anyone having their tongue bitten as he leans down to plunge his tongue into Hinata's mouth. At this rate, he doubted they'd ever make it out of the hotel room.

Hinata moans into the kiss and digs her nails into his back. She was practically drowning in a sea of pleasure and he was her only lifeline. So she clung to him.

Sasuke thrust harder, fingers moving to roll Hinata's sensitive pearl between his fingers as his second orgasm of the evening barreled towards him…or was it morning…? Oh who cared about jet lag… All that mattered was Hinata's voice in his ears, and the fact that he was deliriously close to tipping over the edge again.

"Sasuke!" She just couldn't stop screaming his name. "Oh God!" It felt too good. Her entire world had been reduced only to her and him and the hotel room, but she didn't mind. In that moment, it was perfect and that was her last coherent thought before she spiraled over the edge. "Sasuke!" She came hard and fast, screaming his name.

Spent, but not nearly tired yet, Sasuke slides out, smirking smugly. "So…" He takes a deep breath, admiring the sight of a flushed and panting Hinata. "Should we just tell room service to come by with food later?" Because it didn't look like they were getting out of bed any time soon.

She manages to nod as she struggles to catch her breath. "Y-Yes." The bride snuggles into his side. "That would be a g-good idea."

End of Lemon

Sasuke chuckles, indulging in some snuggling before suggesting another round. Besides, even he needed a little time to recover from THAT. "Then I'll order something in a little while." Probably a little of everything, since he wasn't entirely sure what kind of Spanish food would appeal to Hinata. It wasn't something he ever cooked. Hm…maybe he could slip away for a couple of hours and pick up a few cookbooks.

"That sounds good." She smiles and snuggles into him. "I guess you don't mind the handcuffs."

"No, I don't." After all, being restrained had been the least of his problems during the year from hell. But Sasuke could see why Hinata would be concerned about that as he plays with her hair. "You don't have to worry about that. You have a calming influence anyway…you make me feel safe."

Hinata smiles more at that. "Good. I"m glad." she kisses his cheek and snuggles. "You make me feel safe too. Well that and a lot of other things." She smiles mischievously. "Mostly things that would scandalize my father."

Sasuke smirks. "You think he's freaking out yet?" He could just imagine the look on Hiashi's face when he got the postcard.

"Hopefully, mother can calm him somehow because he's definitely freaking out by now." She smiles and snuggles. "Your grandfather is a very traditional man, but he means well." Hinata glances down at her stomach.

Shifting down, Sasuke presses his forehead to Hinata's stomach. "Well, your grandfathers might be hard to deal with, but at least your uncle is going to love you. And your grandmothers will probably abduct you when we're not looking."

Hinata giggles. "He's joking." She smiles down at her still flat belly. "I think. Maybe." It was a good thing they had had their honeymoon now and not later. She never would have been able to fit into that thing in another month or two.

"If you think I'm joking, then you underestimate my mother." The things that Mikoto Uchiha could do when she wanted something could be very scary. And Sasuke knew that firsthand. "It's Karin and Suigetsu we're going to have to look out for. Once they start having the hyper babies…" Sasuke shivers at the thought. "They'd cave to just about anything."

"I love you, even if you are slightly paranoid." Hinata laughs.

Sasuke snorts in amusement. "It comes with the job." He wouldn't survive very long in the military without a healthy dose of paranoia.

"Well speaking of coming, we do have two weeks left on our honeymoon." She kisses him. "We might as well enjoy it."

"Hm…a good idea." Sasuke rolls them over so that Hinata lies on top of him. "Care to continue enjoying ourselves?" He raises an eyebrow in jest, not really expecting her to refuse.

Hinata laughs. "I might be persuadable." The bluenette caresses her cheek. "If my knight is willing of course."

"More than willing…" Sasuke drags her down for a fiery kiss. Their honeymoon had only just begun, after all.
