Kushina couldn't believe it, she didn't know how to feel about this situation, she was happy that her son was back in Konoha, but the day he came, something made her relationship with Mikoto change.

Right now, Kushina was in the kitchen drinking some sake, there was another person in front of her, it was Mikoto.

- Are you sure that's a good idea? – Asked Kushina worried about this.

Mikoto remained in silence for a while before she nodded at her wife.

- I know that you might feel uncomfortable because he's your son but… This is the only way I can think that we can continue being together and also fulfill the need that I have of becoming a mother once again – Mikoto told her and Kushina nodded seriously at her.

There was tension between the couple, and it all started a week ago when Naruto finally decided to come back home…

Mikoto and Kushina were happy, they were informed that their son (Yes, Mikoto thought of Naruto as her son too) was going to finally come back, which made the problems that they were having lately calm for a while, it was a temporary solution.

But even if Mikoto was happy to see Naruto once again, she was still thinking about having children of her own, and so, the day in which Naruto was going to come back finally came.

Kushina was using a red long dress with red high heels and Mikoto was wearing a long black dress with black heels, it was past the twilight hour and they were already waiting for him to come back home and suddenly after hours of waiting. someone knocked on their door.

Mikoto ran as fast as she could while Kushina finished fixing the last details on the table, Mikoto tried to remain calm, she waited for a few seconds and then opened the door, she was stunned.

The older woman couldn't believe what she was seeing, in front of her, there it was a younger man, but he looked so handsome and strong, it reminded her of her younger days, the boy reminded her of the fourth Hokage when he was young.

He was smirking at her, he was dressed in an orange jumpsuit, his blue eyes were staring directly at her dark ones and he suddenly did something that the older woman wasn't expecting and that made her get out of her thoughts.

- Mikoto-san! – He said as he embraced the older woman.

It took the older Uchiha a few seconds to get used to the younger man's touch, she was trying her best to control herself and then, she realized what was happening, this young, strong, handsome man was no other than Naruto Uzumaki, her adoptive son, and Kushina's biological child.

He was hugging her happily, the older woman was still trying to get adjusted to his touch, and then, he surprised her by kissing her cheeks.

- N-Naruto! – Mikoto said nervously.

- Yes… That's me… Where's my mom by the way? – Naruto asked as he entered into the house.

It was his home, after all, there was no point for him to wait, he walked through the house as he remembered all those times before he went to train with his teacher, and suddenly, he was surprised to see his mother standing on the kitchen's door, he ran towards her and embraced her too.

- I can't believe it… You changed a lot! – Kushina said happily and Naruto smiled at her.

As mother and son continued embracing and giving each other compliments, Mikoto was still stunned about what happened, she couldn't believe that the small box full of surprises also known as Naruto could end up looking like that, she knew she shouldn't think about him like that but, he was too handsome for his age.

Mikoto felt guilty, that was her wife's son, and she had known him for so many years, she was trying her best to remain calm and not do anything stupid, she decided to clear her mind and keep herself calm, she needed to think clearly, there was no way that she was going to see Naruto in another way than as her stepson.

She felt guilty about it, but, for the last few months, her relationship with Kushina has gotten worse, it all started because she was longing to have children once again, but there were other reasons, she felt as if their relationship was becoming monotone.

Don't misunderstand her, she loves Kushina too much, but she can be also a little annoying sometimes, Kushina is the most loving person she has ever meet however, all that comes with a price, Kushina can be too caring, and even if Mikoto likes to be loved she also likes when someone takes in charge the situation.

Kushina never does that, she's always asking Mikoto before she tried to do something, and she's thankful that the redhead considers her an equal to do that, but still, she couldn't help but feel a little tired sometimes, she just wants Kushina to take in charge of things, she wants her to dominate her.

That's why Mikoto has been thinking about divorce for the last few months, she knew that it's bad to think too fast about that, but she felt that she was losing the sparkle in her life, but she wants to fix the relationship, she doesn't want to give up so easily, that's why she wants to have a baby, that may help their relationship to improve she couldn't bear the thought of hurting Kushina.

- Hey, are you gonna stay there forever or you will join us? – Asked Kushina as she looked at her wife.

Mikoto was startled by the redhead's words, she nodded at Kushina and quickly ran towards the mother and son, they were a little worried about Mikoto but they decided to not think too much about that, Mikoto smiled at them and then she joined them in the table, they were going to enjoy some ramen that Kushina made to honor this special occasion as both Naruto and his mother enjoyed this meal, it was their favorite fish, Mikoto preferred other things but she didn't dislike ramen.

They were chatting at the table, Kushina and Mikoto were telling him about their relationship about the hardships that they have been facing lately, Naruto was a little worried about them, they told him that the council is pressuring Mikoto to have children but they don't have a way to make it come true, they also want to become mothers, so, they don't dislike the idea.

- Well, if there's something I can do… Tell me please, I'd be glad to help you – Naruto offered them their support and they thanked him.

Those were the words that Mikoto heard the whole week inside her head, Naruto offering them their help, and so, a weird idea started to get into Mikoto's head.

- He offered us his help Kushina – Mikoto mumbled and her wife just stared at her – We're just going to get his seed and that will be all – Mikoto tried to make her understand.

Mikoto knew that this didn't make any sense, but she needed to convince her wife, she didn't know why but once she saw Naruto, she could see someone she could trust to make their dream come true, and also keep things amongst family.

Mikoto felt guilty, but there was no point in denying what she felt, she couldn't say that she was attracted to Naruto, but she didn't dislike the idea of him fathering her children, he's such an incredible and strong ninja, and he's also Kushina's son, she knows that as long as they tell him that it's for their sake, he will cooperate, Mikoto knows him, she knows he's an incredible person, willing to sacrifice everything just to help someone he loves.

- I must admit that I… Feel a little jealous about this… This is such an important issue... And I can't do anything to help you – Kushina mumbled sadly.

That made Mikoto felt worse than she already felt, but there was a reason why she was so worried about this, the council was pressuring her too much to just get the job done, she was worried that they might try to harm them just to get their objective.

- Listen Kushina… There's something you need to know – Mikoto said as she took her wife's hands – I didn't want to tell you this because I didn't want to make you worry… But the elders spoke to me yesterday and they gave me an ultimatum, they told me that I need to take care of this on my own or else… They will do it – Kushina gulped after she heard those words.

Kushina and Mikoto remained in silence, Kushina was so shocked, she didn't know what to say, what can you say after you heard something like that? She was trying her best to process what she had just heard.

- What do you mean by that? – Kushina asked worried about the answer she might receive.

- That's the important thing Kushina… I don't know what they meant by that… But I'm pretty sure that the council is going to do anything to get what they wish, and right now, saving the Uchiha clan seems to be their top priority – Mikoto gulped after she said that.

Kushina was feeling worse and worse, she didn't know what to do, Mikoto was offering her the solution to all their problems, she wanted to Make Naruto their donor, and on the other hand, if they don't hurry up things might get ugly for them.

Those elders are scary, they aren't someone you should joke about, when they want something they aren't giving you a suggestion they want you to do it, they want things done when they want, they don't care if they have to take care of the nuisances, and right now Kushina felt as if she was on the way of the council's plan.

- Are you sure you want Naruto's baby? – Asked Kushina, feeling a little embarrassed about talking about this.

This was an important matter for the couple, they needed to make a choice, but she wasn't sure if her son would accept doing this.

- Yes… I'm pretty sure about it, thankfully, Uchiha genes are dominant most of the time so, I'm sure that if I have Naruto's child, and turns out to be a boy… All our problems will be solved – Mikoto said daydreaming about having another son.

Kushina wasn't sure if things will go as easy as her wife wanted to make it sound, but their options were getting limited.

- What's the plan then? – Asked Kushina, she wasn't saying that she was fine with the idea, but she wanted to know what Mikoto was planning to do.

- I was thinking of… Seducing him slowly – Mikoto said as she bit her lower bit – And then… When he least expects it, we can have sex and he can deposit his seed inside me, and then we will forget about it forever – Mikoto said.

Kushina remained thoughtful for a while, she was trying to analyze the plan that Mikoto said was going to apply, there were so many inconsistencies on it.

- I don't know… Naruto is too noble, I don't think that he will like the idea of you cheating on me without me knowing – Kushina said a little confused.

- Do you have any other way to approach this? – Mikoto asked, and even if knew that Kushina was right, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Kushina remained thoughtful for a while, things were getting harder and harder, but they were getting out of time.

- Why don't we just tell him about it? – Kushina asked her wife seriously.

There was no point for them to deny what was happening, Naruto was already informed about their wishes of becoming mothers, there was no point for them to deny it, as much as they wanted to make it look like things were fine, things weren't actually, and they needed as much help as they could get.

- I'm scared that he might think we're crazy – Mikoto confessed worried.

- Well… We can explain to him what's going on, we need his help actually, there's no point in denying that but… That doesn't mean that he's going to become our lover or something like that – Kushina blushed as she said those words.

The thought of her son sharing the bed with both of them made Kushina felt weird, she didn't want to put weird ideas into her head, but the last few weeks have been rough for her, and add to that Mikoto suggesting crazy ideas like this one...

Mikoto remained thoughtful for a while, Kushina was right, they were getting out of time, they needed to try what they could to get what they needed, and once they heard the main door of the house getting opened, they knew that it was time.

- Let's do it – Mikoto mumbled and Kushina nodded.

Naruto walked happily inside the house, he has been having fun with his friends after his hard training, but once he reached the kitchen, he was a little worried, both of his mothers were serious and they seemed to be troubled, Naruto felt a little worried about them right now.

- Naruto… Can we talk? – Asked Kushina before she was joined by Mikoto who sat on her right side.

Naruto was worried, he didn't like the sound of that, but in the end, he nodded and he sat in front of the pair, something was troubling them and it was obvious, he was trying his best to know what was going on.

- Well… What can I do for you? – Asked Naruto completely surprised by this situation.

Kushina and Mikoto remained in silence, their foreheads were already sweating, this wasn't a situation which they were used to.

- Naruto… You know how things are between us right now, right? – Kushina asked calmly.

- You're talking about the baby and the council stuff, right? – Naruto asked and they nodded.

- Yes, that's it, as you know, we're being pressured to sire another child but as you can see… We're both women and it's not as easy for us to do that – Naruto nodded at Mikoto's words.

- Yes, I've heard about ancient rituals for same-sex couples to have children, but they sound more like legends to me – Naruto said calmly.

- Yes, that's true… That's why we've been analyzing this situation trying to find a way to solve this without destroying our relationship – Kushina sighed after she said this.

- I love your mother Naruto… That's why I'm giving her the chance to have a voice in this, she doesn't like the idea of me siring a stranger's child and I respect that… But that doesn't fix the problem – Mikoto explained to him and Naruto was getting more and more confused.

Seeing the expression that her son had right now, Kushina knew that she had to be clear, there was no point for them to run away anymore, they knew that this was dangerous, but there was no other way for them to solve this.

- Naruto… There's a favor we'd like to ask you – Kushina said calmly.

They remained in silence for a while and Naruto was getting worried until they finally decided to look straight into his eyes.

- Please… Help up with this… Please give us some of your seed – Mikoto finally confessed.

The three of them were shocked about this situation, Mikoto couldn't believe that she had just said that, Kushina and Naruto were feeling weird about hearing those words, they gulped, Naruto didn't know what to do.
