"Oh look who finally showed up," she bit out, not even moving to let me in.
The remark took me completely off guard. It was only 10 AM, true that was a bit later than usual for me, but all I'd said on the phone was that I'd be here tomorrow morning. Hinata had come over for breakfast and to continue her enthusiastic efforts to get a child from me, put me a little behind schedule.
"I'm sorry?" I offered. "Do you still want me to-"
Instead of answering she turned around, leaving the door open as she went inside and sat down in the living room. It looked like Neji was up, bouncing about in his 'spaceship' the expensive plastic toy that held him upright. Supposedly this thing would help him learn to stand and walk quicker. Whether that was true or not he clearly enjoyed it, at times at least.
I went straight over to kneel and get in his face. A smile splitting my face to match the grin he grew at seeing me.
"You got here just in time, he finally stopped crying," she complained sarcastically, bringing my eyes over to her. Her cocoa hair was in a sloppy bun, and she appeared to still be wearing her sleep clothes, ratty, comfortable clothes. She was just sitting on the couch, no phone, no book, no TV, she wasn't even looking at anything, just staring ahead with a deep frown.
"Maybe you should take a nap," I suggested.
"What's that supposed to fucking mean, don't want to deal with me?" she accused, I kept my eyes concerned, but she was starting to really grate on me. In light of that, I decided to be a bit blunt.
"Tenten, your clearly tense, and being this high strung around him isn't good for Neji,"
She glared at me a long while, but eventually stood up and walked back towards her bedroom.
I'm sure I was just projecting but my nephew looked concerned.
"It's okay little guy, mama's just tired she'd not mad at you, mama loves you. I love you," I praised, ticking and poking at him until his mouth opened in another heart-melting smile. He stayed content in his walker for almost a half-hour, a new record! To be fair though babies grow fast and the record rarely lasted more than a week. When he started whining and fretting I picked him up, his immediate silence confirmed that he had just wanted to be out of it, that he didn't need anything.
She said he'd been crying all morning, he probably needed a nap by now, which actually worked out quite well. I grabbed his bag and put him in the stroller, deciding to do something nice for my sister-in-law. She wasn't technically anymore, or ever actually, but in all but name. I'd go to the store and pick up everything we needed for a nice, healthy lunch, this had the added bonus of requiring a long walk outdoors, which usually put Neji right out, it was perfect!
It remained perfect until I got back home a half-hour before noon, surprised to see Tenten had woken.
"Fucking hell Nago you couldn't leave a note or something? Just disappear with my baby that's fine!" I looked down to confirm said baby was still sleeping.
"I expected to be back before you woke up, and I had my cellphone," I replied tersely.
"Oh, that makes not taking two seconds to scribble a note okay. Where'd you even go?"
I held up the bag in my hands.
"You were out of lettuce, I wanted to make us a healthy lunch, we're having-" before I could try to entice her with the entrée I had planned she interrupted.
"Yeah, healthy, that's what I want right now," she complained.
"I'm sure you're eating more than enough crap Tenten," even if I couldn't assume that I'd seen it first hand. She didn't even let me tell her what I was making, she was going to love it!
"Fuck you!" she bit back, startling me, and bringing my eyes back to the kid who was, miraculously, still sleeping. "I know having and-dealing with this kid turned me into a fat fucking cow you don't have to remind me!"
"Tenten enough," I said, actually raising my voice slightly. "Things are very hard for you right now, I understand, but you are not allowed to talk to me like this,"
"Not allowed? You're in my home asshole!"
"I'm more than happy to take Neji back to mine if you'd like," I retorted, finally seeming to silence her. She glared at me, sucking in deep breaths through gritted teeth. "Now, I'm making us-"
I was cut off when she pulled my face against hers.
If this had happened a week ago I would have pushed her away. Hell I know exactly what would have happened, I knew her well enough. I'd end this, she'd freak out and apologize and finally snap back to something resembling normal, then we'd both just pretend it didn't happen. As things were, I hesitated just a few seconds in this first step. Long enough for her to shove both hands on the back of my head at least, gluing my face to hers unless I wanted to use some real force.
My hands came to rest on her hips, those hips she was so ashamed of. Having a baby truly had filled her out wonderfully, she was always a beautiful woman, but now she was just so… womanly. Wider hips, bigger breasts, a little meat on the stomach to cover her abs.
I tried to get a word in a really did, but she wasn't listening, aggressively kissing me without pause. Before long I was hard, and she was rubbing it forcefully with her thigh. It was all I could manage to get free long enough to confirm Neji was still out like a log. He could sleep in his stroller, for a little while, it'd be fine.
Tenten recaptured my lips and released a deep groan into my mouth, and her body seemed to relax the slightest bit. Maybe that's why I didn't seize the opportunity to flee when she pulled away.
"So I'm a fat fucking cow? I'm eating too much crap?" she kissed me again, hard. "Well how about instead of feeding me your fucking rabbit food you help me get some exercise, huh?" her lips were an inch from mine. None of what she said was true, but there was some truth in between the lines. Some 'exercise' would probably be good for her. Giving birth could make a woman hormonal, and I highly doubt she'd had any real release since her husband died. Hell longer actually, since we'd left for the war.
Fuck would Neji hate me for doing this? He didn't think much of Naruko but he adored this woman, was he scowling down at me from heaven for touching her? No, he was a better man than that, he would want her to be happy. He might even want me to do this.
I shifted slightly and shoved her against the entryway wall, taking her ample ass in my hands to lift her up to my height. We were enthralled by our kissing, I continued savoring her deep, euphoric groans. Also, on a harsher note, the fact she had finally shut up all those cruel jabs. As I slid down her pants she reached for the hem of my pants, unbuckling it before, in a rather impressive display, she maneuvered her flexible legs to pull them down without the use of her arms.
It was easy to forget sometimes how athletic she was. How much muscle there still was under the newly acquired layer of fat. I lifted one hand to squeeze her breast hard, delighting in the way she tightened her grip in response. Only one hand was buried in my hair now, the other wrapped around to my back, tightly squeezing the fabric there.
I had to struggle to pull my head free, but she stopped fighting and whining when I immediately buried it in her neck. Her skin felt somewhat greasy, like she hadn't washed yet today. She whispered darkly in my ear.
"Ooooyeah you like that you cheating bastard? You asshole! You like telling your wife you're coming over to babysit and then-"
Deciding I didn't like that, I went right back to her mouth. She didn't seem to mind. She was stroking my cock quickly now, almost like she was racing me, trying to make me cum before my fingers in her snatch could do it to her, wanting to prevent that and regain a bit more control, I slid inside her.
"AH!" she called out with a gasp. "I didn't say you could do that assHOLE," she called out as I buried myself in her, anger growing inside me as if a disease she was infecting me with. It didn't matter that she actually had a point this time, that I should have asked first, all that mattered was shutting this noisy woman up!
I had to retake her mouth to keep her quiet, and what a heavy sacrifice that was. I devoured her soft lips as I rutted inside her, each deep thrust producing an addictive high-pitched cry of pleasure, the noises we made hitting the wall weren't exactly quiet either. It was truly fortunate what a heavy sleeper this baby was. Though maybe if he'd woken up it would have broken the spell we were both under. Oh hell, what did it matter? What did it matter if I bedded one more girl? At least some good was coming out of it this time, at least this was someone who needed and deserved the comfort.
She screamed into my mouth and, I believe, attempted to crush pelvis bone with her leg squeeze. Unable to move more than an inch and only then with great effort, I finished too, pouring my load into her pussy with a satisfied groan.
Her legs seemed to fall limp, and I thought it best to carry her over to the couch, though when I got there I ended up falling down on it myself, still joined with her and still panted with exhaustion.
Finally, our lips came apart.
"I…oh god Hinago I'm sorry I- I don't-"
"It's okay Tenten," I assured, receiving a scoff in return.
"It's okay? Look what we've done what I've done I-I-"
She burst into tears at that moment, I hugged her forward into my shoulder, letting her cry. Rubbing slow circles on her back as she sobbed, despite everything, feeling relieved. You see as she cried, she finally seemed to un-tense, decompress you might call it. It seemed like she was finally letting all those nasty thoughts and feelings inside her out. My eyes turned to the baby still sleeping in the corner, safely in line of sight.
Momma's all better now Neji.
