Summary: "Yes way, you got to be married to Naruto so why can't I?"
"Because you made me!" Sakura gave a little hmph and pouted.
"Today we are playing house,'' a little six-year-old Sakura said.
Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other then at her.
"Uh, how do we play house?" Naruto asked, head tilted. Sakura made a dramatic gasp.
"You don't know? But everyone knows how to play. Kids in our playground do so all the time." Although Sakura herself had never played house. No one in the school liked her until she met Naruto and Sasuke. She figured they would have known this game, but considering Sasuke wasn't one for socialising and similarly to her Naruto hadn't had any friends maybe she should have known better.
But hey she was only six.
"I've never played, how do we do it?"
"It's simple, one is mummy, another is the daddy and someone else is...uh…"
She put her finger to her lips trying to think of other characters. She's only ever witnessed it by other kids and it didn't help that they would often argue about their roles. Everyone wanted to be the parents so they could pretend to be an adult, but some would be the kids and others the pets. Sakura tried to figure out how many kids were allowed, not that it mattered since there were only three of them. But she had to state the rules.
Some even had aunts, uncles and grandparents and others argued why they couldn't have had grandparents if so and so did.
"There's also a kid and you can be pets as well. We can also have grandparents and aunts and uncles but you have to act like them."
"For example, if you want to be a kid. Act like a kid. If you want to be a parent, act as your own Mama and Papa." She explained, deciding to research the game later.
"So what parts do you want to be? I want to be a Mommy." Sakura raised her hand, claiming the role.
"I want to be a child, being a parent sounds boring." Naruto stuck his tongue out at the thought.
"Okay, and what about you Sasuke-Kun?"
"Uh, I don't know, does it matter?"
"Hmm, okay then you're the Daddy." Naruto then made a face.
"Hang on, does that mean you're married to Sakura-Chan?"
"Well duh, all mommies and daddies are married," Sasuke stated, sure he was wrong but he didn't know better at the time. "Okay let's play."
They had made a little house with furniture in Sakura's living room. Sasuke opened the 'door' to the house.
"Welcome home dear, how was your day?" Sakura asked as she placed all the cookies, crisps, and sweets on her small table as their dinner.
"It was fine, we managed the meeting successfully and now their partners are with our company." This was a line he heard his Dad say before, he didn't really get it but she said to act like their parents.
Naruto was drawing with crayons.
"Look Dad I drew you this," Naruto handed Sasuke the drawing of him, Sasuke and Sakura. He nodded in acknowledgement
A few minutes later.
"Hmm…" The pink girl pouted, arms crossed with a frowny face.
"What's wrong?"
"This is boring, I mean I know the Mommy has to do the cleaning and food but why can't she do something else?"
"You can," Sasuke stated.
"I can?"
"Yeah, it's your life and husbands are supposed to support their wives. So if you wanted to do something then I would support you."
"Okay, then I want to be a singer!"
"I'll support you then."
"Great, Sakura decided to get her toy microphone and her mother's phone so she could sing and pretend she was talking to people who wanted her on 'their show.'
"I'm going to be on TV!" Sakura declared and then accidentally clicked on a button.
"Hello, who's this?" Almost dropping the phone, Sakura looked at the two boys frightened and pressed other buttons trying to disconnect the call.
"Don't do that, you're meant to hit this one," Sasuke explained and with relief managed to hang up on the person.
"Hey, next time do you think I can be the Dad? Being a kid sucks, I just do what I usually do and get bossed about by you two."
"I thought you said being a parent was boring." The raven smirked.
"It's more interesting than what I usually do."
"Of course, you can. We can take turns and switch around."
"Okay, then can I be Daddy next time and you be Mommy?"
"Why don't you be a pet or grandparent?" Sasuke argued, not liking the idea of Sakura marrying this idiot. It would never work out.
"But I want to be a Dad."
"I'm the Dad, you be someone else."
"Why don't you both be daddies?" Sakura suggested, they both looked at her with a strange expression.
"How was work today… dear?" Sasuke scowled, clenching his teeth.
"It's fine, thanks," Naruto gave back in the same tone.
"Hey Papa and Papa I got an A on my exams today," a happy Sakura beamed, completely dismissing the deadly auras they had against one another.
Neither wanted to be married to one another but if it made Sakura happy who were they to argue?
"Next time, I'm marrying Sakura-Chan."
"No way-"
"Yes way, you got to be married to Naruto so why can't I?"
"Because you made me!" Sakura gave a little 'hmph and pouted.
"It's only fair though, afterwards we can be Mommy and Daddy again." Sasuke reluctantly gave in.
"Fine, then I'll be the new boyfriend when she dumps your ass."
"Hey, hey you don't get to make up characters" Naruto screamed, Sakura just sighed. Can't they just play a game without getting into any fights?
So I've officially completed SasuSaku Month now. Just need to post them all here, it may take a while but if you want to read them you can find them on my Twitter^^
