Sasuke bid his mother and little one goodbye. Sarada planned to spend her weekend with her Grandparents and both sets just keep on spoiling her. Sakura probably went to sleep again. The thought of his beautiful wife tangled in between sheets made the corners of his mouth lift up slightly.

It was the weekend which meant no work for both of them and they wanted to spend this free time with Sarada. But her grandparents were eager to take her.

Maybe it was fine to sleep in once in a while.

Once in their bedroom the sight he was greeted with was oddly sexy.

Sakura manged to tangle herself in the sheets with his shirt ridden up leaving her white lace panties and succulent thighs bare to his delight He'd have to bury his head in there later but now they needed the rest. He slowly untangled her, sometimes pressing a kiss here and there.

Her feet are cold he noticed as he covered her with the comforter. He took a moment to take in the glory of his beloved. Short pink hair spread messily on the pillow her kissable lips parted with invitation which he accepted and pressed a soft kiss on them. She hummed in approval before falling a sleep again.

He'd better get some sleep too he decided as he kissed her forehead and wrapped her up in him.

He woke up with a familiar weight on his chest.

"Where's Sarada?" Sakura said as she got comfortable on his torso.

"Weekend with Grandma and Grandpa." He replied groggily, slowly blinking his eyes open, eyes adjusting to the light.

His wife stretched lying on top of him and nuzzled in the crook of his neck - he brought his arms to wrap around her waist.

"So it's only us then?"

"Hn"

Ever since Sarada was born, they've been really busy. Even with a leave they hadn't had much time to each other. He drew her in closer and turned on his side , tucking her head beneath her chin. Softly pressing his lips to the top of her head.

"Did they take the milk? I pumped out some just in the morning. I don't know if that's enough." She said with anxiety coating her face.

"Yes. And they promised to be back tomorrow. And just for safety I packed the formula. She'll be fine." He reached out to tuck her hair behind her ear. Slowly lifting up her head he pressed his lips to hers in a slow soft kiss. She reached out to grab on to his shoulder and deepen the kiss. They hadn't been since Sarada and all that pent up desire was starting to burst.

Sakura slowly parted her lips an silent invitation for her husband's tongue to enter. Slow and sweet turned to insatiable in a matter of seconds.

"Anata,.." She grasped out as her beloved's hand traveled places they haven't in a while. She had become more sensitive to touch, he slipped his had under her shirt, raising it until it was bunched up under her arms. Still nipping at each other's lips trying to get in as much as possible.

He moved his head slightly to kiss and suck at her neck, and giving soft bites at intervals. Her skin sensitive as ever. His hands occupied themselves with her mounds, super delicate from breastfeeding.

his hands kept up her sides and slowly cupped those delicious mounds of hers. On impulse he offered a firm squeeze and she pushed him off.

"Itai! Sasuke-kun, I told you not to do that, they hurt." She furiously explained as she pulled the shirt to check the damage. Sasuke offered an apologetic glance to which much to his chagrin she wasn't appeased.

"I'm going in the shower now. You can sleep in." There goes a perfect chance to reunite with each other. He knew he wasn't invited.

It had been weeks since that incident and Sarada was slowly falling into a timed sleep schedule but it seemed as if they hadn't had much time to each other. Being on leave meant having a work load waiting for you that is only yours to tackle. That paired with a kid wasn't something easy. Although they were young, their positions in respective sectors made them quite busy. Being parents made it all the more harder. They didn't have that intimate time-together They made sure to have enough time for their little baby. Even if it meant getting less than 4 hours of sleep.

Being in the Doctor Sakura had more experience in getting less sleep, but Sasuke had a tendency to be grumpy whenever he had to lose sleep but fatherhood had made him more accustomed to controlling his grumpiness. Sarada wasn't half as needy as the other children her age but being premature made her a little fussy when it came to her sleep schedule.

But this growing apart they had going on had nothing to do with their baby, if anything he tries to spend more time at home now. But they needed more time together before things head for the worse.

He had to do something instead of relying opportunities that might or might not appear.

The decision was made. He turned in the letter before he could begin to have second thoughts, one thing was sure though, if this meant having more time with his family it's wouldn't be something he'd regret.

He handed the his resignation to his father and stared willing him to talk while sitting in front of him the mask of indifference ever present.

Fugaku looked at his youngest siting in front of him for second before continuing to the work in front of him.

"You are to give a two weeks notice." He said as he kept on signing useless paper that is already approved in the digital database but they need a hard copy for some reason. And now the head of the IT department was resigning.

"What?" He was sure Sasuke was confused about what he said but knew his face would stay impassive as ever.

"I said,You are to give a two weeks notice before you resign. Every employee has to, you being my son makes no difference." Papers should be made illegal, wasn't it just killing trees or somethings.

"You don't want to know why I'm resigning?"

"You might have a good reason I'm sure but I'm not really interested." Ofcourse he knew why. Ever since his granddaughter was born, his son had been looking at the clock time and again fidgeted non-stop when it was time to go home. He knows that feeling because he went through the same with his first born bu e was lucky to have his wife working in the same office and profession as his, so they could finish work together and go back to their child. It toned down when Sasuke was born due to extra workload. Itachi was an excellent elder sibling who carried around his little brother without any complain. That doesn't mean he regrets all the things he's missed out on with his second born. He knows this time is important.

"So it is expected that I would fail and resign." He was responsible for such resentment.

"No, it is expected that you would want to stay home to take of your child. Look, I know I wasn't really the best but I'm the only father you have and you can have a successful career whether you work here or not,but this place is like family you are welcomed to return whenever you like. Plus it really does feel great to see your woman strive out there." Fugaku ended with a wink. He wasn't sure where that came from maybe being a grandfather had made him cooler like his wife said.

"Thank You, Tou-san." And it did feel great to hear your your child's grateful tone.

"You will leave after two weeks and I suggest you help me look for applicants while you are packing. And please sign these." He threw a pile of paperwork that needed his signature. Sasuke could fake those for him. Seriously, what good are children if you can't make them do your work in a while?

When Sasuke drove home that day, he picked up cake to celebrate, he doesn't like sweets but his wife really loved the bakery. She should be home by now if he was correct.

Since they started working again they'd drop Sarada of at one her parents' or his. But they don't need to continue this strict routine anymore, he'll be there for their baby.

This was probably the one thing he hadn't planned out. Well, this and ending up with Sakura.

Sometimes people's ambition can change for the better.

Sakura was feeling a little guilty maybe she shouldn't have been so harsh with him that day, Sasuke had been working non-stop with just enough for Sarada and hadn't really made any advance towards her, a little cooing could be heard from the cot signaling Sarada's awakening. Sakura went over to her fron her place on the couch to pick her up and return to her previous position.

"Papa is a little late today, ne Sara? I wonder if he's mad with Mama?" she silently whispers to her daughter although there is no one around to hear them.

Sarada lets out a small giggle,

"Oh Kami. Why do you have to be so amazing, so so beautiful. " This felt like their own little universe their own place. And she is pretty sure the two of them could work things out after somethings fall into place. She starts to coo at Sarada at how much they all love each other.

The sound of the main door caught her attention a low Tadaima was echoed through the house a she came out to meet her husband who made for a beeline towards he baby in her arms, Sakura silently laughed as Sasuke looked absolutely bedazzled by their daughters antics.

"Okaeri, Sasuke-kun."

"Hn."

"I was getting kind of worried that you're so late today." Sakura stated rubbing her upper arms, slowly stepping closer to her family.

"Aa, got caught up with some extra work." HE explained while rocking Sarada slowly over his shoulder, she was looking sleepy anyway. "How was your day?"

A small "Eh" escaped from Sakura before she gave him a smile and gave him details about the juicy hospital she went to the kitchen to prepare something for him. He moved towards the nursery in the meantime setting Sarada down in her cot and bulling up the baby blanket. Sakura watched the whole thing from the kitchen door way

"I picked up some cake from the bakery." He said as he came up behind her.
"Mou, Sasuke-kun, you know I'm trying to get off this pregnancy weight and you're some kind of anomaly who hates sweets, I'm just gonna keep getting fat.' She said with a pout while she place down the tomato soup and sandwich on the kitchen table in front of him. She took the seat opposite to him so that she could talk to him face to face.

"So what's the occasion?"

" Why does there need to be an occasion?"

"The last time you got me cake was when I started working again after Sarada. I know you Anata. What's it for?" She said resting her chin on her palm looking straight at him.

Sasuke replied after he was done. "I turned in my resignation letter today. I want to stay at home."

"Is it because I don't want to stay home after Sarada?" she asked unsure of the situation she didn't see coming. For some reason she became a big ball of insecurities after childbirth.

"Sakura , look at me. When I was growing up, my parents didn't have enough time for me, I don't resent them for that and neither will Sarada, But I want to experience what it feels like to be a parent staying with their children. I'll return to work someday but right now I want be constantly present in her life."

His wife gave him a smile of understanding .

"That's why you're late today?" She said smiling coyly." But too bad you got me that cake, it's gonna take more time for me to return to my Oh so sexy figure."

"You have to stop quoting Yamanaka. Don't worry now that I'm home I can always help you with workouts." He didn't rally think through before saying it out loud and now the wife was giving him a well known look.

"Then, want to start in the shower Anata?" she slowly got up giving him a show in her soft night gown while heading towards their bedroom.

"Hn." Followed on Before grabbing her and kissing her hard at the bathroom doorstep.

Time to rekindle their fire.
