Even though there was a lot going on and things between me and Sasuke were far from perfect, I really wanted Sasuke to have a good birthday. Yoichi put in so much effort, he had several homemade gifts as well a custom made holster that was identical to the one we had bought him for his birthday. I was surprised at the gesture, I'd given him the money but he didn't want me to know what it was until Sasuke opened it.

"When we go out on missions together we'll match!" He beamed at his father, who ruffled his hair.

I presented Sasuke with two beautifully wrapped gifts, some warm clothes for missions when the weather changed and a new Fuma Shuriken, something we laughed about because the shape was such a giveaway that no amount of clever wrapping or bows were going to stop him from correctly guessing what was inside.

"Thank you both." Sasuke smiled warmly at us.

My last gift I was planning on saving until later but the way things were I wasn't sure it was the right time so when Yoichi and Sasuke went into the garden for some shuriken practice I snuck upstairs to move it somewhere that it wouldn't be found. I had just crawled under the bed and retrieved it when I sensed Sasuke coming up the stairs. There was no time to hide it anywhere else so I held it behind my back and tried to act casual.

"What are you hiding from me this time?" It was supposed to come out as a joke but with the mission request that had come in for an Uchiha that morning tension had spilled over without him realising.

His hostile approach filled me with anger, yet again I was doing something for him and being made to look like I was up to no good.

"If you really have to know, it's another gift for you but I don't want you to see it when you're in a bad mood."

He could have stopped the argument then and there by telling me he wasn't in a bad mood but he didn't, he made another stupid comment. "Is it another scroll?"

I was so angry I was surprised steam wasn't coming out of my ears. Knowing that Yoichi would have overheard me shouting, I shoved the gift into his hands and stormed out of the room. I desperately needed to blow off steam, train or even run back upstairs and have some angry sex but because I knew I shouldn't be doing either I made some tea and sat on the veranda watching our first child trying to get strong to win his father's respect. He had no idea that he already had it. We both had acknowledged his abilities from the first time he threw a kunai.

"Alright, Mum?" he called over to me, rubbing his sweaty face with muddy hands.

"All good." I laughed. He needed a bath again.

Yoichi's eyes slowly trailed up towards the top of the house, sparkling with excitement as he watched his father scale the roof and land silently in front of me.

"That was so cool, Dad!" he yelled, running over.

I didn't think it was cool, he had surprised me enough to make me spill my tea all over the floor. Without questioning why he had just climbed down the outside of the house I started to cry about my spilt tea. The thing was, I wasn't even that sad about it. Yoichi ran inside and grabbed a towel to clean it up, hoping that if he made the mess disappear my tears would also vanish.

"How long have you known?" Sasuke crouched down in front of me and took my hand. He had tears in his eyes as well but he was smiling with all of his heart. He had opened it.

"A few days." My voice was barely a whisper, all of a sudden I was so nervous.

He wanted to kiss me but it was too dangerous, Yoichi was watching and he knew once his lips were on mine he wouldn't be able to stop until he could feel our naked bodies trembling together as pleasure erupted through us. He settled for sitting by my side and wrapping his arms around me. Yoichi had no idea what was going on but he ran over and threw himself into the cuddle as well.

"Yoichi, we have some good news." Sasuke said, his voice cracking with emotion.

A crow settled in a nearby tree, quietly observing our expanding family.

"You're going to have a little brother or sister."

Hearing it from Sasuke's mouth really made it feel real. I was pregnant, soon we would have another amazing little Uchiha running around and filling our lives with even more happiness. I clung to both of my boys, smiling until my cheeks started to ache.

For the rest of the day Yoichi was unusually quiet. I assumed the news was still sinking in, after all, he had been an only child for a long time, a sibling was going to be a big adjustment for him. Occasionally he'd run over and place his hand on my stomach without saying a word or carefully observe me and Sasuke. When we asked him what he was thinking about he would just shrug and return to his normal happy go lucky self. At bedtime he finally voiced what was concerning him.

"Mum, can I ask you something?"

"Of course." I replied, pulling his duvet over him and placing a kiss on his forehead.

Sasuke lingered just outside the doorway, he was just as curious to hear Yoichi's thoughts as I was.

"You couldn't look after me when I was a baby but you'll be able to look after this one, right?"

I nodded calmly, careful not to show how much his question pained me.

"Does that mean you and Dad will love the baby more than me?"

"No, of course not." I cried, pulling him into my arms.

After our little heart to heart it took a while to get him settled so me and Sasuke took it in turns telling him stories until he finally drifted off. Only when we were sure he was fast asleep did we creep into our room and collapse on the bed. Finding out that I was pregnant was still the best news we'd had for a while but we were still a little concerned about Yoichi.

"I think we need to make him feel really included." I suggested, not registering Sasuke pulling my top over my head.

"What do you mean?"

"Letting him choose things for the baby, helping us decorate the baby's room."

"Good ideas." He really meant it and he would give some input of his own after sex.

Finding out I was pregnant only fuelled his desire, he had created another life with me and he planned to create many, many more. My bra flew across the room and Sasuke ran his tongue between my breasts. I let my head fall back, enjoying the feeling of his tongue that was now swirling around my hardened nipples. How did he always know exactly what I wanted? My fingers found their way into his hair, grabbing hold. I was already writhing against him, asking him for more.

"You're so beautiful, you know that?" he purred, kissing his way down my body. He took his time to appreciate every inch of skin under his lips, I was all his and he was never going to take that for granted.

All his.

He spread my legs and began devouring my wetness. I quickly grabbed a pillow and covered my face to muffle the screams ripping through my chest. Waves of pleasure rolled over me one after another, steadily increasing until my body was flaming hot and trembling. He didn't allow me even one second to adjust, his tongue unrelentlessly lashed against my sweet spot. Then all of a sudden he withdrew, his fingers replacing his tongue. He pulled the pillow away, his eyes fixed on my face. Watching me always got him off. It was almost a power rush seeing what he could do to me, how beautifully my body responded to everything he did. No other man would have ever come close, he knew it. He licked his lips as warmth gushed onto his hand.

My chest rose and fell quickly, my heart thudding wildly. The room felt tropical and it had nothing to do with the warm weather.

"Come here, husband." I beckoned him and he crawled across my body until we were face to face, chest to chest, his hardness pressed firmly between my legs. I knew he wouldn't give it to me right away, he never did. That was one of the many things that made him an amazing lover, sex was about us both, not just him.

"How much do you love me?" he whispered, sucking on my top lip.

Without a second of hesitation I replied, "You're my everything. I love you more than life itself."

He smiled, feeling very pleased with my answer. "Even me than ice cream?"

This time I pretended to think his question over. "Well…"

He started to laugh, which of course made me laugh too. I could be in the worst mood and hearing his laugh would make me smile, it came straight from his heart. I pulled him to me, engulfing him in a mind blowing kiss that relayed my feelings to him. He kissed me back just as strongly and gently slid inside of me. I moaned into his mouth at the very welcome move he had just made and curled my legs around his waist. He took the hint and started to thrust harder, still kissing me as though his life depended on it. I dug my nails into his shoulder blades as he sped up. We simultaneously broke the kiss to prevent the noises flying from our mouths, he buried his face in my neck, groaning loudly and I bit down on my lip.

"Sasuke." His name slipped from my mouth in a helpless breath. It was becoming too much, I wasn't going to last much longer.

"Emi. Emi." He panted.

My nails sunk deeper into his skin, which he seemed to like.

"Emi!" he practically shouted, hitting me with one amazing final thrust.

He rolled over and we lay side by side, trying to catch our breath. I swear I was seeing stars. Damn, he's good.

A/N Not sure why but this lemon is probably one of my favourites!
