Heyyy everybody…sorry that I'm not updating as fast. But now that it is summer, I should be able to more often if I feel like writing. :pp

Oh and I'm sorry that the last chapter was really short.

Sad note: No one has really been reviewing lately…it makes me sad. I know that not all of you have time to read but ya… :

I estimate about 5 more chapters…more or less.

Let's begin!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the OCs.

Hospital Kitami's PoV

I wake up tiredly with every part of my body aching. Something grabs me and holds on to me tightly. I look over and see Kankuro hugging me. I smile but it fades quickly as I feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I yell and a doctor comes in quickly. The doctor tells me to just calm down and take deep breaths. I start to calm down but the pain does not subside. Kankuro looks at me worried but I give him a small smile telling him not to worry. After a few more moments, the pain goes away and I relax.

Something crawls in my lap, and I see Mamo settling down. She yawns slightly and starts to fall asleep. I sit up straight and smile at her. I feel warmth on my hand and I look up to see Kankuro holding it.

"Hi…" I say weakly.

"Hey…you feeling okay?"

"Somewhat." I yawn and close my eyes slightly.

Just then the door opens and I see Kari with…wait. Is that Kakashi?

"Hey! We just wanted to see how you were doing. And to tell you that you're going to be here for a while since they need to make sure the baby is okay."

"Sure…um, yeah."

"Is that all you have to say to the only sister that came to visit you?"

"Actually…yeah."

Kari glares at me and drags Kakashi to a seat.

"What are you doing here?" I ask him wondering why out of all the people he would come visit.

"Your sister made me come."

"Ah. Well thanks for coming." I say.

"No problem."

I yawn once more and lay down. My hand still in Kankuro's, I start to drift asleep when the door opens again with a loud bang. I sit straight up panting slightly. I glare at whoever is at the door to find practically my whole family.

A little girl runs up to me and hands me a drawing.

"Why thank you Sakime-chan."

She grins and picks up the now roaming panda.

I look up and see everyone crowd around me.

"It's called personal space people."

"Psh. You have the whole bed to yourself. And you're telling me about personal space. Look at me! Tamu, Riiko, Mimi, and Kari are so fat I can't breath!" Emiko states.

I start to laugh as all the above stated give a deadly glare at Emiko. For sure she's going to get it later from Riiko.

"Well, how are feeling?" Mieko asks me in this motherly tone. It scares me. I'm supposed to be the older one. Mieko and her stupid matureness.

"I guess I'm okay. I'm just hoping the little person inside me is okay."

"What happened?" Someone asks.

I think hard, but don't seem to remember. A lot could have happened, but I don't remember one thing.

"I really don't remember. All I know is that I was on my way home, and then I ended up here."

"How long are you going to be here?" Emiko asks me.

"Ask know-it-all over there. She said I was going to be here a while but I don't know how long."

"Know-it-all? How in the hell did I get that name?"

"I don't know. I just thought it fit you well." I grin at Kari.

She rolls her eyes and says, "They think she'll be here about a month and a half more or less."

Emiko's PoV

"A freaking month and a half!" I yell.

"More or less." Tamu finishes.

I roll my eyes at her and ell everyone that I'm going to get some air.

Outside

I take a deep breath and smell a light sakura flower fragrance. I see a tree nearby and sit under the shady part.

"Hey."

I jump and look on the other side of the tree. I find Gaara leaning against it casually. Smug bastard. I smirk.

"I thought you were inside."

He looks at me. "I've been here the entire time."

"Oh…"

He comes around and sits next to me.

"How long is she going to be in the hospital?"

"A freaking month and a half."

"More or less!" Tamu shouts from the window.

I glare at her and throw whatever it is I picked up. But she ducks and I 'accidentally' hit someone else.

"Ow! God damnit Emiko!"

Um…yeah…I hit Kitami. My bad. You wouldn't think that whatever I threw would hit her since everyone was crowding around her.

"If she's going to be there for a month and a half…more or less…then she'll still make the wedding." Gaara tells me.

I look over at him.

"That's not what I'm worried about. I'm stuck taking care of Mamo-chan."

"Can't you ask Mieko to watch it?"

"You mean her. Gosh…you and your habit of calling LIVING animals 'it' or 'thing'."

"It's not a bad habit."

"But it's not a good one either."

I close my eyes and take another deep breath. I imagine a little girl walking around the house and then disappear. I open my eyes quickly and I feel tears rolls down my cheeks. Gaara notices and rubs them away with his thumb.

"What's wrong?"

I think. I could barely remember that little girl. I don't even know why I'm crying.

"Nothings wrong." I say to him, giving him a small smile.

He looks at me and shrugs. He stands up and holds his hands out to me. I take them curiously and he walks into the busy streets.

"Where are you taking me?" I ask.

"Just wait."

"Okay, but if you make me walk to far I'm going to start complaining."

"That's fine. You won't have to walk that far anyways."

All they do is walk, talk, argue, the good stuff. Yeah…but guess where they end up.

Gaara's PoV

"Why the hell are we back at the hospital?" Emiko asks me.

"I just felt like walking around. I never told you that we were going someplace else."

"You're telling me that you couldn't walk on your own?"

"I didn't want to seem like a loner…"

"You've got to be kidding me. I walked for how long just so YOU wouldn't seem like a loner…"

"Yup. Relax. It's not like just walked. I mean look, you bought what?"

"Stuff…"

"Excuse me, but I didn't just buy you 'stuff'."

"That's not the point. Next time I'm not getting up unless you tell me where we going or what we are doing."

Emiko sits back down under the shady tree. I can tell she's not happy with me. I sit next to her. She looks away from me, but I grab her chin to make her look at me.

"I'm sorry…"

"Really?"

"No." I say and smirk. In a few moments I'm going to regret it.

1…2…3…

And she hits me. Now my shoulder hurts. It's all a price to pay…

Whee…chapter 14 is DONE!

It's longer then chapter 13 so yeah.

PLEASE review. I probably won't update if I only get 2 reviews for a chapter. I made last time an exception only because it was so short. So please review, and make me happy. :

Thanks,
