Disclaimer - I do not own anything about Naruto and nore do I receive any money or kickbacks from writing this.

I love that everyone's excited to see Sasuke's reaction to being a dad, but we're still a couple of chapters away... Sorry. ~_^

Also you'll all be happy to know I've finally found a Beta for another story I'm working on. It's another Naruto A/B/O story, but it's huge and has so many arks that I needed help making sure I didn't miss anything. It'll be a long-term one with werewolves, mates, drama and more. So please stand by and hang around if you like these sorts of stories. ~_^

Anyway... On wards!


It was late, but Itachi was still sitting in his office working when his screen went black with an incoming video call. Sighing, he accepted the call. "Yes mate?"

"I thought you'd be excited to hear from me?" his blond mate pouted.

"Normally yes," Itachi sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. "But Sasuke has been making an absolute mess of his work and his team has been putting in complaint after complaint about him."

"Oh dear….. That bad ha?" Deidara winced.

Breathing deeply the raven Alpha answered, "I've had to force him to take leave."

"Oh…." his mate responded. "Well, maybe my report will brighten your day." he grinned.

"I doubt it but go ahead." Itachi sighed leaning back in his chair.

"Naruto is settling in well and Konan even gave him some of the old projects to look over and after only a quick glance he redesigned them and explained to her why they originally flopped." Deidara made crude hand gestures. "BUT!" he grinned, "I learnt something very interesting… Are you ready?"

"I'm on the edge of my seat." the raven said, dripping with sarcasm, even adding an eye roll to compliment his comment.

"Well you should be. I know why our cute little Naru left." he smirked.

"We already know this Dei. My brother pushed him too far and he left." Itachi sighed, rubbing his temples as he felt a headache coming on.

"After reviewing my new information I feel that no matter how hard Sasuke pushed, he wouldn't have left for fear of his second gender coming out. No. He had another reason." Deidara's grin turned into a smirk that grew.

Letting out a long sigh, Itachi looked up. "Okay, I'll bite, what's the real reason?"

"I'd like you to meet your nephew, Menma." Deidara disappeared as a small picture frame was held up in front of the camera. In it was an fatigued looking Naruto, laying on a hospital bed, beaming past his exhaustion as he held a raven haired infant tightly to his chest, wrapped in a light blue swaddle.

At first Itachi's brain didn't know what to make of the information, but as the seconds ticked by it finally sunk in making his eyes go wide. "I'm an uncle?" he whispered.

"Yep!" Deidara beamed.

Itachi suddenly found it hard to breathe, he couldn't believe this….. He was an uncle….. And Sasuke was a dad…. And, and…. Naruto had run away with an Uchiha baby.

"Love…" Deidara whispered softly, "Tachi, I know what you're thinking, you're letting your Alpha mind get the better of you." he moved the picture away, placing it somewhere off screen. "You need to think logically about this….. If you try to take his child away from him, he will disappear again, and the next time it will likely be harder to find him."

"He's of my blood, he belongs with me!" the raven Alpha growled clenching the desk so hard his knuckles turned white as his fangs and claws elongated while his eyes began to flicker between his normal black and enraged red.

"Listen to me Itachi, you need to get a hold of yourself." the blond whispered soothingly, "Let me get close to him first then we'll go from there."

Itachi took several deep breaths before looking at his mate again, "You're right…. I'm sorry." he tried to calm himself further, even though his instincts were telling him to march right over there and take his nephew.

"It's okay, this is big news." Deidara grinned sweely. "In the meantime, why don't you put that energy to use and go shopping for our adorable little nephew? I know I will be!" he beamed, holding up his credit card.

With a deep sigh, Itachi lent back in his chair, calming himself finally to the point he felt stable. "You're right, you're right. I'll leave Naruto to you." he covered his face, "Just please hurry. I don't know how much longer I can keep Sasuke in check." the wheels in his head began to turn at that moment. "I'll call you tomorrow. I love you."

"Love you too mate."

After blowing each other a kiss and ending the call, Itachi's mind went into overdrive. Naruto being pregnant would certainly explain the way Sasuke had been acting. His inner Alpha had known Naruto was pregnant and was trying to protect him, then he must have sensed the blond was about to leave and tried to stop him… in all the wrong ways.

He needed to confirm this theory though, and he knew just who to call to reinforce it.

The raven was at home in his office when a soft melody rang through the house. Standing, he made his way to the front door. Once open he was met with a yawning male Alpha, his brown hair pulled back in a spiky pony.

"This had better pay damn good Uchiha, do you have any idea what time it is?" he grumbled as he walked in without an invitation.

"Oh it will, don't you worry." Itachi confirmed.

After pouring them both a drink, the pair sat down.

"So what's the job this time?" the other Alpha slouched back into the couch, taking a satisfied sip of the fine alcohol offered.

Itachi produced a thumb drive and a picture of Naruto. "On here is six months worth of cloned footage and the program to run it through." He handed him the drive. "I need you to analyze everything about this person and get back to me with your findings, as soon as possible. There'll be a bonus if you get it done by next month."

"You don't ask for much do you?" laughed the other Alpha, downing his drink. "Do I get a name or even a reason they've pissed you off?"

"No." Itachi answered flatly.

"Fine. I'll see what I can do." with that the brunette Alpha stood and made his way to the door. "I expect half the payment in my account by morning."

"Of course and as always, it's a pleasure doing business with you Nara Shikaku."

The other man grunted then left.


X~~x~~X~~x~~X

"Naruto, the Director's on his way." said Konan as she walked into the blond's office.

"Mmmm…." he hummed as he looked up from his laptop. "Send him in when he arrives, I'm almost done here." Naruto waved his hand.

"Ofcourse." she answered as she placed some forms down onto his desk. "Also, Menma's enrollment has been confirmed, he's welcome to start tomorrow."

"Excellent!" Naruto beamed, before going back to his work.

It wasn't long before a knock at the door had him looking up and his breath catching. The TV hadn't done the mans looks justice. He was still average height for an Omega, but his looks were striking and gave him the air of confidence and dominance almost like an Alpha, and honestly, it was a turn on.

"Hey, you got a moment?" the blond asked, his voice making Naruto weak from hearing just that one sentence.

"Ah, yeah… sure, come in." Naruto stuttered, sitting up straight. He was instantly crushing on his boss and it was embarrassing as hell and his inner Omega was detested the notion of being with a fellow Omega, mind you he thought his inner Omega could go to hell. That little weasel had gotten him in plenty of trouble over the past year.

"My name's Deidara, I've been taking the time today to meet and greet everyone." He smiled enthusiastically, his smooth voice wrapping around the other blond like silk.

Before Naruto's mind could catch up with his mouth, he had already blurted out something embarrassing to the max. "Do you have a mate?"

Deidara began to laugh, a rich sound that hummed in the blonds ears. "Yes." he smiled after calming down, he unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, showing a mating mark on the back of his neck.

And that was that, in that split second his crush on the man was gone, the attraction was still there but the possible forming lust, poof, gone. "Oh, but you don't use their last name?" He questioned.

"No," his boss shook his head. "Just the mentioning of my mate's last name has people bowing down in the hopes of gaining some sort of tie with him through me, and I don't want that. I want people to recognize me for my hard work and achievements, not my name and what's connected to it."

Naruto's eyes began to sparkle. "I want that too." What was a crush two seconds ago, was now idolization. Man he was on an emotional rollercoaster at the moment. Damn hormones….

"Hey, I was thinking, since it's the end of the day, wanna grab some dinner together?" Deidara asked smoothly. Biting his lip, Naruto was about to decline. "I know this great ramen shop up the road, I'll shout you a bowl or two if you'll join me?"

This was a man after his own heart, scrap that, stomach. "Sure," Naruto answered in an instant, "But I can't stay long."

"Oh, got a handsome mate waiting for you at home?" Deidara winked.

Worrying his lip between his teeth, two parts of his mind began a battle. One side was telling him not to trust the other Omega, while the other was telling him he will find out anyway, the man's his boss after all…. "No," he shook his head, pulling out his phone and flicking through some photos till he found the one he was looking for and showing it to the other Omega, "I have a son waiting for me." he whispered.

Deidara began to gush as he took the phone squealing. "Oh, isn't he a cutie!" he squealed again. "No mate though?" he asked, flicking through as many photos as he could quickly see before Naruto took the phone back.

"No" Naruto shook his head, putting the phone away.

"Did the asshole pump you full, then up and leave you high and dry?"

Naruto shook his head, long pushed back memories coming to the surface. "No, he…" he started, biting his lip again, "It's complicated and I'd rather not talk about it, sorry."

"All good, I'm here if you need someone to bitch to." Deidara winked as he laughed, "Shall we then?"

"Sure." Naruto nodded, pushing away the pain of the past.

Naruto grabbed his suit jacket and briefcase before nodding at Konan, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Thank Mr. Uzumaki, safe journeys." she bowed.

"You're going to love this place." Deidara sang as they walked to the elevator. "It has the best Ramen I have ever had."

"Sound's good." Naruto grinned, easily flipping back to a better mood. "Can't wait."

They took the elevator down to the ground floor, small talking about work the whole way. It wasn't long before they were leaving the building and walking up the street, continuing till they came to a stop in front of a small ramen booth, where the pair took a seat.

"Order anything, it's my shout remember." Deidara laughed as he ordered.

"If you're sure." after receiving a nod he ordered as well.

"Wanna drink too?"

Shaking his head Naruto answered softly, "I can't, I'm…. Still breastfeeding." he shied away.

"That's amazing!" Deidara grinned, "I respect that, you're a good mum, too bad about the Alpha."

"He!..." Naruto started, sitting up and glaring at the other blond Omega, "He's a good Alpha, I just didn't want to burden him with a child when he's at the top of his career." he looked away, settling back in his seat and feeling ashamed.

"Hey," Deidara petted him on the back. "I'm sorry. I'm sure he's a great guy and he probably misses you too." he reassured.

Both of them were handed a bowl of ramen that made Naruto sigh with contentment "Do you mind if we change the subject please?" Naruto asked, taking a slurp from his broth.

"Nah, it's kool." Deidara smiled, jumping into eating his own bowl.

Some time passed and all too soon it was time for Naruto to leave.

"Are you sure you don't want another bowl?" Deidara asked with a smirk as he saw Naruto eyeing off his finished bowl.

"Nah, I better go. Two's my limit these days since my mother says I've been putting on weight that I can't blame on being pregnant anymore." he laughed.

"Well if you're sure." Deidara laughed as they stood and made their way out after thanking the chef. On their way back to the parking garage Deidara asked out of the blue, "Hey, I'd love to catch up again both in and out of work if that's cool with you? This has been fun and I like that you're not letting your second gender stop you from being who you want to be."

"That… that would be nice." Naruto smiled genuinely, stopping next to his car.

"Cool, I'll see you at work tomorrow then." Deidara waved before walking to his car a couple of bays down.

"Cya." Naruto called back.
