I decided to write this for warnawarni because they asked for more ShikaIno and this idea popped into my mind. Hopefully, you like it and don't forget to review!
Ino P.O.V
Flashback to Shikadai's Birth
It's been nine months since the war has ended. These last nine months have been hell and now it's 10 times worse. Apparently, during the war, I was pregnant with Shikmaru's baby and I had no idea. We were both surprised by the fact that I was pregnant. The next month after finding out Shikamaru proposed to me. Then we told our parents and now I'm in the hospital trying to push our child out of me.
"How much longer until I can push?!" I screamed, the intense feeling of the baby pushing on my pelvis made me want to rip out my hair. My entire body felt like it was ripping in half. My dad and Shikamaru's dad took the note to leave the room. Shikamaru, my mom, and his mom both stayed trying to comfort me but I only barked at them with harsh words. Shikamaru got annoyed with me and called me troublesome. This caused me to have a breakdown and cry. Shikamaru apologized for calling me troublesome after his mom gave him an ear full of it.
My mom came to my side and placed a cool cloth on my forehead, it was a nice feeling but I would rather it be placed on my vagina. "Honey please calm down Lady Tusande and Sakura are preparing as we speak."
Shikamaru and my mom stood on opposite sides of me both of my legs were in their hands. Another contraction shot through my body causing me to claw at Shikamaru's arm. "Oh my gosh! I'm sorry I didn't mean to grab you that hard." I started to whine as the contraction stayed in my back. My emotions were all over the place right now and I couldn't control myself.
He removed the now warm rag from my head. With his free hand, he wiped my hair from my sweaty forehead. "It's okay..I'm only allowing you because you're pushing out our child right now." He started to chuckle causing me to get all giddily. I reached up with my hand to place a loving kiss on his lips.
"Are you ready to begin to push Ino?" I winced as I felt another contraction sneak up. I nodded my head vigorously. I've been wanting this baby out the day he started kicking me in my ribs. "Okay, every contraction you have you're going to push like your life depends on it."
"Oh my gosh, I feel one NOW! OH MY GOSH! GET HIM OUT!" I felt my husband and mom push my knees to my chest. I wrapped my hands around the back of my knees. The pressure from his head started to become overbearing and painful. I started to push holding my breath as I did. The pain surged through my body as I pushed, I threw my head back as I felt his head come to the opening of my vagina. There was a burning sensation around that area as if someone had set me on fire.
"Why is it burning?!" I buried my head in my pillow, my breathing started to become irregular.
"Ino this is called the ring of fire. It is where your child is on the brim of your vagina. Your baby boy is stretching you out." Sakura chuckled, I watched as Sakura gave Shikamaru another wet cloth to place on my head. She walked back to the front of me staring at my child who was almost out of me.
Lady Tsunade popped her head from between my legs. She gave me a thumbs up indicating that I was doing a good job. I didn't care at this point. I only wanted that burning sensation to stop. "You got this Ino, you're the strongest woman in this room right now. If you give me two more strong pushes your baby will be here."
I gathered all of my strength and pushed as hard as I could. I felt his head pop out, it was very relieving but then I had to push out his shoulders. I screamed so loud that I grew hoarse. I thought the ring of fire was bad but pushing out his shoulders felt like I was being ripped apart even more but it soon faded away once I heard his cries.
"My baby boy." I began to cry as he was placed on my chest.
I glanced up at Shikamaru, he had the biggest smile on his face. It was something I had rarely seen. He kept his eyes on our son who had finally calmed down. I couldn't either he was so small and cute. He was everything that I could ask for. We decided to name him Shikadai. It means born leader or generation. It also compliments Mirai's name which means future. Shikamaru thought long and hard about his name. The name compliments him so well, his hair was brown and so were his eyes. He was a complete split image of Shikamaru.
Right now we were both lying on the hospital bed. Shikamaru held the both of us in an embrace, my head was resting on his chest as he rubbed circles on my back. Baby Shikadai was laying in between the both of us.
Shikamaru placed a kiss on my forehead. I smiled sweetly up at him then kissed me passionately against my lips. They lingered on my lips longer than usual. He looked at me through his hooded eyes. "Shikadai Nara...I could get used to saying that," he mumbled against my lips.
"Imagine once he begins to call you daddy or papa. I bet you'll lose your shit."
He laughed out loud, "Yeah I can't wait to make memories with the both of you."
"I loved you Shika."
"I love you too."
I was debating on whether to bring up the elephant in the room. I think everyone felt the tension in the room once he was born. I knew the topic was very much taboo especially what happened in the war but I couldn't help myself.
"Do you know how special our son is Shika?"
"He's one of the best things that has happened to me."
I began to fiddle with my fingers, it was something that I started to pick up since I became pregnant with our son. I felt my throat go dry and my chest felt heavy. I hated that I had to damper the moment but it was something that I wanted us to deal with together.
"Do you know what day it is?"
He shook his head softly. I smiled at how he cuddled Shikadai in his chest. It made my heart swell as he bonded with our child.
"It's Shikadai's birthday he was born like 8 hours ago." He answered back.
I nodded my head softly, "It's Shikadai's birthday and it's also sensei's death anniversary." Shikamaru gave me a questioning look. I pointed to the calendar on the wall, his demeanor slowly changed. I felt the mood change as well. I tried to hold back my tears as his eyes lingered on the calendar date.
"That's amazing how a year ago I was at my lowest point. As time progressed I always thought this day would be the worst day of my life but you changed that for me….Thank you."
I didn't say anything, I just held both of them in my arms. I could tell Shikamaru was battling with his emotions right now. I grabbed his chin making him face me so his brown eyes were looking at mine. "Hey what did your dad tell you about holding in your emotions? It's okay baby I will never judge you for being sad or crying. You can also be vulnerable with me, I'll always have a shoulder for you to cry on."
I kissed him once more and with that kiss he immediately began to break down in my arms. Shikamaru started to cry in my arms. He held on to Shikadai even tighter as he did.
"I love you Ino, I love you so much. You really filled a hole in my heart."
"I love you too Shikamaru. Thank you for giving me our son."
