Menma - Thanksgiving
"Sasu, hurry up!" Naruto strapped a 2-month-old Menma in his car seat, covered him with his midnight black baby blanket and climbed into the passenger seat while he yelled at his asshole husband.
Sasuke quickly walked out of the house fixing his worn leather jacket and climbed in. He ran slim pale fingers through the dark wind-swept locks and rolled his dark eyes.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm here."
"I can't believe I was ready before you." The blonde gave him a cheeky look and pointed at his own outfit. He was wearing a black wool jacket above a cream cashmere sweater and a white beanie. Sasuke had to admit he looked cute. So cute. Almost angelic with his golden hair and soft tan skin.
"That's because we're talking about food. You've been ready since noon."
"Whatever, lets goooo!" He urged Sasuke to start driving with a dimpled grin. Ugh, how Sasuke loved that smile.
This was going to be Menma's first Thanksgiving and Naruto was beyond excited. He loved visiting Sasuke's parents house on a normal day, but Thanksgiving was always so entertaining and the food so damn good. Deidara had been sending him pictures all day while he assisted Mikoto in the kitchen. He unfortunately wasn't able to join this year since Menma was a newborn. Deidara and Itachi's kids on the other hand were older than Menma, so Deidara had no problem getting there early in the day.
They arrived 25 minutes later to the Uchiha estate and parked next to the others.
"Fuck, the moronic trio are here." Sasuke groaned when he saw Shisui and Obito's cars. He already knew Itachi was here, but he hoped the other cousins would arrive later. Preferably after dinner so he could make a quick exit.
The blonde snickered at the look on Sasuke's face. He loved his husband. He did. But seeing him get picked on by the other three was his guilty pleasure.
Sasuke walked to the back and grabbed the car seat, making sure Menma's blanket was tight around him. His angel was fast asleep after stuffing himself with milk. He placed a light kiss on the soft dark hair and walked to the entrance behind an impatient Naruto.
He knew how much Naruto loved holidays and seeing the excitement in the sapphire eyes always warmed his chest. Fuck, he was already so whipped before. And it was a thousand times worse after Naruto had given him an adorable son. He was a weak weak man.
The door swung open and Shisui greeted them with a shit-eating grin, wearing an ugly burnt-orange sweater with turkey's printed all over.
"What the hell are you wearing?" Sasuke looked at his cousin in disgust.
"What are you? It's so boring!" Shisui pointed to the simple black leather jacket and black jeans.
"Move idiot! It's too cold for Menma."
Shisui shifted in excitement. He hadn't gotten to see Menma in a while and he was overjoyed. He cooed at the infant while Sasuke pushed his face to get him out of the way.
"He's asleep." Naruto gave him an apologetic smile.
"Wake him up!" Shisui's excitement radiated from him and it seemed to amplify Naruto's.
Sasuke scowled, "No. Go away before I – "
"Naru!" Deidara walked out of the kitchen with happiness, wiping his hands on an apron above a sky-blue knit sweater that brought out his eyes and blonde braided hair. He kissed each of their cheeks in greeting and pulled Naruto to join him in the kitchen with Mikoto.
Damn it. He let out a sigh and made his way to the family room to join the other Uchiha's banned from the kitchen.
Grandpa Madara and Fugaku were sharing a leather couch, nursing glasses of scotch, while Itachi sat on the opposite one with his 5-year-old son, Reo, at his side and talked to Shisui.
"Uncle!" His nephew ran up and wrapped his small arms around Sasuke's waist, giving him wide onyx puppy eyes. He placed the infant's car seat in a secure corner by one of the couches and shifted his attention to Reo. He ruffled the kid's wild black locks.
"Hey, brat. Being bad for Itachi?"
"No!" Reo gave him an outrageous look.
"Now, that's debatable." Itachi's smooth voice carried over from the couch. He was wearing a navy-blue knit sweater that he guessed Deidara made him wear since it looked similar to the blondes. Even Reo was wearing another shade of blue knit sweater. Were Menma and he the only normal ones?
"Dad, that's not true!" Reo retaliated, with a 'glare' that he very much had to work on.
Itachi gave his son 'the look' with a raised eyebrow and Reo huffed in defeat. One day, he would master it. Reo walked off muttering and returned to his seat.
Sasuke sat next to Menma and glanced at the TV where his dad and Madara were watching the weather channel.
The weather channel.
"Don't ask. I made that mistake." Obito whispered (tried) after he threw himself on the couch. Sasuke scowled at the similar ugly sweater, only in brown with burnt-orange turkeys. Where the hell, did they find these abominations?
"That's because all of you only care about that flix network channel." Madara huffed out, taking a sip of his drink and shaking his head in disappointment.
"The flix network channel?" Obito look at the other's in question. What the fuck was the old man talking about?
"Do you – are – do you mean Netflix?" Itachi was trying his best to not burst out laughing. He was. But how the fuck did you –
"Yes, that. How can you all just watch one? There's so many other channels." Fugaku joined in with Madara's scolding. Where did they go wrong with these kids…
Obito was the first to erupt into giggles and that resulted in the other cousins losing it.
"What the hell are you all laughing about?" Madara scowled at them.
Sasuke felt his abs becoming sore, Shisui was struggling to gather his breath, and Itachi had tears coming out of his eyes.
Shisui was the first to gather his breath and responded,
"Grandpa, it's not a channel. It's a – a streaming service."
"Can I watch the news? Will it tell me the weather?" Fugaku joined in with Madara's argument.
"Well…uh… no."
"Then it's just a channel." Fugaku shared a victorious look with Madara.
"We rest our case." Madara might as well have dropped the microphone with his condescending tone.
Thankfully the conversation/debate was interrupted by Deidara yelling that dinner was ready.
The banned Uchiha's made their way to the dark wood dining room table and gazed at the numerous mouth-watering plates scattered around.
Naruto joined Sasuke and plucked Menma out of his car seat. Menma's azure eyes slowly blinked open just in time as he was being unbuckled. When his eyes met his mom's, he gave Naruto a sleepy smile.
"My baby!" Naruto kissed the chubby cheeks and removed the wool jacket the infant was wearing and adjusted his outfit.
Sasuke watched in horror. Oh no. Not his child.
"Did you – did you dress my son as a turkey?"
Naruto beamed, "Yes! He's a chubby turkey baby." The blonde held Menma against his chest and pulled the turkey hood over the silk black locks.
The other's started cooing when they saw the turkey baby.
His son was dressed as food. He would take Shisui's or Obito's ugly sweater over this!
"Oh Sasuke, he's just so precious." Mikoto wrapped him in a tight hug and kissed his cheek in greeting. It was the first time she stepped out of the kitchen and she looked impeccable with a dark red long-sleeve A-line dress and a gold belt around her waist. Not a hair out of place.
"Hey mom." Sasuke returned the kiss on the cheek and took a seat next to Naruto who was holding Menma.
Reo came in dragging his sleepy 2-year-old brother Riku, who directly went to Deidara and asked to be picked up and sat next to his dad.
"My baby boy. Did you have a good nap?" Riku nodded and placed his head on Deidara's chest. The blonde ran his hand through soft black locks and urged him to wake up.
As the rest took their seats, Fugaku at one end and Madara at the other end, Mikoto raised her glass for a toast.
"To our wild family and lovely innocent children."
"Wild? We are far from wild, my dear Mikoto. We are a proper calm respectable family." Where did Madara get these ideas? Were they in the same family?
Mikoto raised a perfect Uchiha eyebrow.
"We have been banned from 4 hotels, 2 country clubs, an airline, and 11 restaurants. Obito, Shisui, Itachi, and Sasuke have a combined total of 87 detentions under their belts. Don't even get me started on the property damage."
"In retrospect, most of those were their fault. I was innocently dragged into it." Sasuke argued.
Naruto, Mikoto and Fugaku stared in disbelief.
"And Reo is on his way to joining you all." Deidara gave Reo a scolding look, which made the kid blush in embarrassment.
Fugaku quickly defended Reo.
"Nonsense, Reo is an innocent well-behaved child."
"Innocent? Usually. Well-behaved? Sometimes. This morning he decided to test out if it was true that the Uchiha's can tame fire."
"Of course, we can. It's in our blood." And there went Madara…
"See mom!" Reo exclaimed, finally having back up.
"And yet he set part of my garden on fire."
"He just needs practi – "
"No."
"Okay!" Mikoto clapped her hands for their attention, "Then…just a toast to family."
The adults raised their wine glasses and kids joined with their juices,
"To family!"
