Kakashi Ending)

Hinatas POV:

When we discovered that Itachi had sent us the gift of a pregnant woman bearing his child, it was easily marked as the craziest day so far. I don't think anything says surprise more than a woman carrying a dead man's baby.

But today we would finally get some answers to what happened to him and what our lives would entail from here on out. Sasuke, Kakashi, Konan, Neji and I met in the Hokage manor for a proper meeting.

The air was 08iuyjhgbv7v we're all sober and rested. Let's get down to the details" Kakashi said and we all turned our attention to Konan who looked nervous. I would be too considering she didn't know any of us and the last time she was here.. The village was torn to pieces.

"First off, how far along are you?" I asked her, before the harder more emotional questions would come.

"Three months and two weeks" she told us all.

"So you're three weeks ahead of my child" Sasuke said and she looked surprised to hear that.

"So what did happen to him?" Kakashi asked, and here it came. The small blurred lines in the entire story we were missing. She took a deep breath.

"I had stumbled upon three men fighting, over the bodies of six other people. It took me a moment to register that this was a one versus eight battle prior. He was thrown up into the air and slammed back down violently. I only then realized it was Itachi when he set that man on fire with that black fire. Leaving it a one on one"

He fought off eight people by himself? To protect me? I could feel my heart splitting into two.

"He was already badly injured and the last man sent a barrage of kunai toward him, a few hit him and he fell again because he had no fight left in him. The man then turned his arm into a sword from his bones and charge straight for Itachi. All he did was cover his face, he accepted his death. I moved as fast as I could and killed the man with my jutsu" her story continued and I glanced at Sasuke during it. We had both were silently crying a bit knowing he tried so hard.

"I landed next to him to bring him back to my home. He told me he didn't want my help if it involved another organization and he did what he needed. He then passed out and I flew us back quickly so I could have someone treat him. I wasn't having him die in the middle of the field. What kind of old comrade would I be?" she questioned and I could tell by looking at her that it was upsetting her too.

"He was healed to the point where he was no longer bleeding but was still badly injured. He lived for eight days after that, he went in his sleep" she spoke, concluding her story and I moved myself off the couch to look out the window. I didn't want to look at anyone while I cried. He was probably in pain the entire time too which made it worse.

I blocked out the rest of their conversation and my memories had brought me back to right before the war started. When Obito knew I was pregnant, the night I told Itachi I wanted to protect his family's legacy.

I just wish he didn't go off on a suicide mission, he could of asked for help. They could of came to leaf and would of been destroyed anyhow. He didn't have to die for my safety, why did he need to die to be a hero?

"Hinata" Kakashi snapped, breaking me from my thoughts and I looked at him. He was holding my arm in his hand, I must have blacked out because I could feel the tears coming down my face and my hand hurt. I looked at my knuckles and they had some blood on them. Which made me look at the window that was slightly cracked, when did I punch the window?

"I think you need some air" he said softly to me and I made eye contact with everyone else in the room, everyone was upset too.

…

It's been three weeks since Konan arrived, which meant there was exactly one week left until Kakashi and I were married.

In the span of three weeks, Konan and I had grown very close and aside from the fact she was carrying something precious inside of her there was something I really liked about her. She was also great with my children and they seemed to like her too, which warmed my heart.

"Hey, are you ready to go?" I asked threw the door, she had been staying in the spare bedroom in my home for now. Sasuke wanted to make sure she was near me for the entire pregnancy, we finally had a full house.

"Yes" she said and the door opened so I stepped away. My father wanted me to come to the compound today because my grandfather wanted to have my wedding kimono fitted and finalized. Then when we were done we were to see Tsunade who was going to check on the pregnancy.

"Okay, let's get going then" I said with a smile and we made our way to the front door to leave.

"I'll be back" I said to Ru and Kakashi whom were feeding the babies in the kitchen.

We left the house and the warmth breeze hit my face, today was a beautiful day out which meant that the wedding day was going to be beautiful too.

"So have you thought any further into my question?" I asked her so we didn't have to walk in silence. I asked her about a week ago if she would be staying in the village once the baby was born or if she would return home.

"I hope you don't look at me differently but I would like to return home. Itachi wished for you to mother the child, I have no place" she told me.

"You do have a place, I might raise that child as my own but you are still it's mother" I assured her, I didn't want her to feel like a hinderance. I also knew once the baby came out, she might feel differently.

"You're incredibly nice, it's no wonder why he loved you so much" she said quietly and it made me smile. My heart was with Kakashi now and we had a strong family but it would never take away from that fact.

..

We reached the compound and the guards let us in, although they seemed wary of Konan.

We moved towards my father's office before we did anything else, I hadn't seen him since the engagement party but I knew he was busy with my wedding and training Hanabi more.

I knocked and opened the door to walk in. My father, Hanabi and my grandfather were here as well.

"Good morning" I said, bowing to my grandfather and I could see from the corner of my eye Konan bowed too. Which was good, now I don't have to hear about random people being disrespectful.

"Oh, I see you brought someone new with you, who are you?" my grandfather asked as we both stood back up.

"My name is Konan, pleased to meet you" she said kindly and my family kept eyeing her.

"What brought you to the leaf village?" he asked her and I wanted to speak for her but I knew better than to interrupt a conversation my grandfather was having with someone.

"I am pregnant with Itachi Uchiha's child, I have come here so Hinata can raise it as her own" she told him and I watch all three of my family members faces grow in confusion.

"I'm confused" Hanabi said before anyone else said anything.

"I made Itachi a promise long ago that I would make sure to protect his family's legacy. Konan came to the leaf with his child and I'm going to keep my promise" I filled them in more. I completely forget they had no idea about anything going on with Konan.

"Why would you help keep a promise of a deadman when my granddaughter is to marry another? Surely, he told you of their engagement?" my grandfather questioned her and now I was starting to feel bad. I came here for something else, not twenty questions.

"He died protecting Hinata and her family. I would not let down a dying comrade who risked such" Konan shot back and I could hear the attitude that came with it.

"My granddaughter and her family? Surely you know her husband is a powerful ninja and the Hokage at that. No harm would come to them here" My grandfather continued bantering on and I looked at Konan who looked very angered.

"Do you have any care at all for your great grand-" Konan had started to yell but stopped mid sentence when my father rose from his seat abruptly. My heart rate was through the roof, she almost just told him about the twins. She almost just ruined everything.

"Enough! Hinata I will escort your friend out, stay here" he deadpanned, walking towards us. He gently and quickly took her out of the room. I locked eyes with my sister, who also looked alarmed.

"That's a lesson right there Hanabi, don't you ever lose your temper like that in front of a guest" my grandfather talked down to her as she nodded her head.

"So.. the actual reason why I'm here," I said, hoping we could rapidly change subjects.

"Mm, that's right. Follow your sister, she'll take you to your dress" he said and I knew he was still upset since a stranger had argued with him in his home.

Hanabi had moved from her seat and we both of us fled the room as quickly as possible, shutting the door behind us.

"Is she insane?" Hanabi whispered angrily towards me as we walked down the hallway.

"She didn't know, we didn't tell her it was a secret" I assured my sister but I knew once this was over I was going to let her know that wasn't okay for one more week. Just one more week and my children wouldn't be branded as for they would have Kakashi's last name.

…

We were nearly to the entrance of the hospital and I knew now would be a good time to talk to Konan.

"Hey, about earlier with my family" I said and looked at her.

"Your father explained everything to me, I'm sorry for almost ruining everything," she said, before I even mentioned the subject.

"It's okay, you didn't know" I assured her.

"I just got upset because I thought babies brought happiness and your grandfather seems heartless" she said to me and I nodded my head. I agreed with her because I couldn't remember the last time he did something out of the kindness of his heart, if ever.

"He's stuck in his ways" I told her as we entered the hospital finally.

"Well, I give you all the more power for living there your entire life" she commented and I laughed a bit.

"Not my entire life, but thank you" I said and we stood at the receptionist desk. The woman was doing paperwork and we waited for her to finish the current paper she was on. Konan didn't know my entire back story and I was sure Itachi didn't tell her either. I guess that would be a conversation for a different day.

"Ahh, Hinata!" a female said in a happy tone. I looked to see Shizune and I gave her a smile while she waved us over.

"I was just coming down here to wait for you guys," she told us, glancing at Konan. She hadn't met her yet since she was busy here working.

"Well, let's get started then" Konan said sweetly and we all moved.

Shizune had brought us down the hallway, to the last door on the right.

"Please, sit" she gestured to Konan and I moved out of the way.

Shizune had got to work, checking out every square inch of Konan and the child within.

"This is so much faster when only one baby is here," Shizune commented and we laughed a little bit knowing it was the truth.

"Every single part of you and child are healthy. Did you want to know the gender?" she asked Konan who looked at me for the answer.

"Yes, please. I would like to start planning" I told her and my excitement was coming out, I could feel happy tears welling in my eyes. Then I realized that I had to read the letter Konan gave me from Itachi, which is probably filled with baby things.

"So the gender of the baby Uchiha is a boy" Shizune said, placing her hands in her pocket.

Konan and I exchanged looks with each other and she smiled while the tears I had welling had started to fall.

"This is so great" I whispered.

"Well, that's all I have for you guys today, I'm glad everyone is healthy" Shizune said and Konan started to sit back up on the bed.

"Me too, I'll see you in a week, right?" I asked her with a smile and she nodded her head.

Shizune had left the room with her things while Konan was putting her hair up.

"Oh, I just realized! We need to get you something to wear for the wedding!" I said with excitement. Today was a great day so far and I haven't been in this good of a mood in a while.

"Oh no, don't worry I have something. Itachi told me pack it, he had a feeling you were going to include me" she told me with a small smile.

"Well, he wasn't wrong. But okay, well I guess we can go grab lunch and tell Kakashi and Sasuke we're welcoming a baby boy into this world" I said to her and she nodded her head.

…

"Your village is so peaceful, I'm so sorry for the destruction my dear friend caused" Konan said almost quietly as we carried the two small bags of food toward the manor.

It struck a chord in me that I didn't know still hurt. Even after all this time I was still slightly angry and hurt about that day. It wasn't a pleasant day, one no one would forget anytime soon.

"Let's just leave it alone for today, we're going to have a good day" I told her a little harsher than I intended to and we remained silent as we walked to Kakashi's office. I didn't mean to make her feel bad but she saved the person who brought the fight that day. I wasn't even sure what happened after that, maybe we could add it the list of conversations her and I should have.

"Hey, you guys busy?" I said through the door as I knocked on it. I heard shuffling and then the door opened for us.

"Nope" Kakashi said and shuffled the papers on his desk around quickly. I gave him a look and he just smiled at me.

"What are you hiding?" I asked as I walked towards his desk, trying to find the paper he was writing on.

"Nothing" he said with a smile but I ignored him for now.

"So what brings you guys here?" Sasuke asked and I looked at him, my smile instantly coming back.

"We found out the gender of your brothers baby today" I said, looking at the both of them.

"We're welcome a baby boy into the world" I said and Sasuke instantly smiled.

"That makes me so happy" he said lightly and I nodded my head, as I started unpacking the lunch we had brought into the office.

"I figured we could celebrate" I said, continuing to place the food down.

"Absolutely" Kakashi said.

"Um.. Sasuke" Konan said, almost quietly but we all looked at her. Whispering does nothing in a room full of trained shinobi ears.

"Yes?" he asked wearily.

"If it's okay with Hinata, I would like you to name him" she said awkwardly and Sasuke looked at me.

"I think that's a great idea," I said, before Sasuke could even say anything.

"Well.. I suppose I have some thinking to do. Sakura and I still have to name our child" he said and I handed him a plate of food.

"Speaking of your child, have you guys found out what you're having yet?" I asked him, he was being secretive about the gender of his baby and it was killing me.

"We have, but it's a secret," he said with a smirk.

"Uuuuuh" I groaned out as I handed everyone else their food too.

"I'll get you to tell me before it comes" I told him, glaring at him and he laughed a bit.

"Good luck with that, you know I don't budge easily. Just remember how long it took for me to trust you again" he spoke, reminding me and he was right.

"He won't even tell me, you know" Kakashi butted into the conversation.

"Yeah because he knows you'll tell me" I said joking around with him, causing Konan and Sasuke to laugh and I took a seat on his desk and we all started eating.

Then I looked around me, it was peaceful. Everything finally felt normal and I was incredibly happy for it. I looked to the side of me at Kakashi and the realization hit me hard, in just a few days.. This man will be my husband. Our family will finally be one and free.

"You okay?" he asked me as he caught me looking at him.

Sorry this is short, the next chapter is going to be the wedding and it's going to be a long one. But I hope you all enjoyed this, the kakashi ending is coming to a close soon. I have it planned out, stay tuned (: & the Itachi ending is next, I have a few more chapters for the one as well. Breathe Into Me is coming to a full circle close

"Everything is perfect" I said, smiling and he gave me a smirk back.
