Part Two: Revelation of Life
"You're pregnant Hinata-chan." Tsunade told the young Hyuga. Hinata smiled and rubbed her abdomen. She and Naruto had been dating for a few months now. They had consummated their relationship a week prior, and Hinata was sure she was with child. This visit to the Fifth Hokage had certified that feeling.
She leaned back on the examination table and giggled happily. 'I'm carrying Naruto-kun's child.' she thought. She wouldn't have it any other way. "Hinata-chan, may I ask who the father is?" "Naruto-kun." she said with her happy grin firmly in place.
"So," Tsunade moved closer to the young woman. "Was he good?" Hinata responded before the question sank in. "It was wonderful… Oh!" A deep blush won the fight with her smile for domination of her expression.
Tsunade adopted a more serious look. "Have you told Naruto-kun that you might be pregnant yet?" Hinata shook her head. "Not yet. I wanted to wait until I was certain." Tsunade nodded in agreement. "I plan on telling him tonight though. I'm just worried about Father. He already disapproves of our relationship. What will he do when he finds out about this?" Hinata hugged her stomach protectively. "I'm not giving our child up."
Tsunade smiled at the change that had come over the Hyuga. Dating Naruto had had quite a positive effect on Hinata's confidence. She hadn't stuttered for days, and was beginning to assert herself more. Naruto had calmed considerably as well. "Don't worry about your father. I'll have a talk with that hard ass. He'll see things my way, and if he doesn't, well, you can always move in with Naruto-kun."
"Tsunade-sama?" "Yes?" Hinata was hesitant to continue. "Um, well. Naruto-kun told me something about the Kyuubi." Tsunade saw where this was going, but to be safe asked "What about the Kyuubi?" "Well, he told me it wasn't killed. He said it was sealed inside somebody, like what happened to Gaara from Sunagakure." Tsunade proceeded carefully. "Did he tell you who it was sealed in?" Hinata nodded. Tsunade decided to have out with it. "You can tell me. I know exactly what happened, and I am hokage after all" Tsunade finished with a smile. Hinata smiled in turn, the older woman's grin infectious. It didn't last though. "He said it was sealed inside of him. He showed me the seal." "And is this giving you second thoughts to your relationship with him?" Hinata shock her head fiercely. "No! He told me about it before I ever told him how I feel. If anything, I love him more. Having a burden like that, never having any friends because of it, or even someone to look at him without hatred, and yet he tried his hardest for this village. He ignored the hatred to be one of the strongest shinobi we have. His strength and confidence have always been traits I admire about him. His unwavering belief that he could do anything, and nothing would keep him down. He is so much stronger than even I thought he was. A lesser man would have broken long ago. How can I not love him for it?"
Tsunade fought back tears overjoyed that someone loved Naruto with all their heart, seeing past the demon sealed within him. "Don't worry Hinata-chan. If anyone wants to come between you and Naruto-kun, they'll have to go through me." Hinata bowed. "Thank you Tsunade-sama. I think I should go know. I have to ell my Naruto-kun about our child." The young woman left with her head held high, humming a happy tune.
"Now," Tsunade grumbled. "Time to talk sense to a rock. Naruto-kun, You're gonna owe me big for this headache," she grumbled as she headed toward the Hyuga compound.
-ooo-
"You're pregnant!" Hinata couldn't read the expression on Naruto's face and became worried, thinking he might be angry or upset. Instead he let out a woop of joy, picked her up, and spun about the room. After about three revolutions he set her back down and kissed her passionately. "You're gonna be a great mother," he said softly, nuzzling her cheek. Hinata put her face into his neck and began to cry.
He felt the tears on his neck as her body trembled in his arms. "Hina-chan, are you okay?" he asked, pulling her away to look into her eyes. "I couldn't be happier Naruto-kun." She kissed him deeply and guided him to the couch.
"I think I'll take a shower," Hinata said after a couple hours of 'couch-time'. Naruto watched her figure appreciatively as she walked toward the bathroom. She turned to him when she got to the door, a light blush on her face. "What's wrong my love. Aren't you coming?" She leapt into his arms as he walked over to join her, wrapping her legs about him as he carried her into the bathroom kissing her the whole way.
