Naruto walked into his home sluggishly, shoulders slumped in exhaustion from a mission that had been too long and too far away from home. He hadn't planned on coming back to their house tonight, the office looking far more inviting than the late night walk he would have to make. The past days had been long and hard and filled with too little sleep, and all Naruto wanted to do was curl up and sleep. Who knew being an awesome Hokage would be so tiresome? He loved what he did, but sometimes he caught himself wishing it was easier. It was just too bad Naruto had never taken the easy way out of everything, in fact he went out of his way too make things harder no matter how unintentional it always was.

He dropped his cloak on the ground by the door, already hearing the angry yelling his wife was sure to do the next morning.

He felt a small smile curve the corners of his lips, tiredness pushed to the sides for the few minutes it would take to make it to his room. The sight that he was greeted with didn't disappoint but he wasn't surprised because the sight before him was never a disappointment. Laying in the too large bed was his beautiful and sleeping wife. The large blanket was pulled around her hips, with one of his pillows clutched in her arms as she buried her face in the clothe he hadn't used in a week. Pink hair stood out against the white bed coverings, her white skin glowing from the soft light of the moon. He felt a pang of regret at not seeing her beautiful jade eyes, promising himself to make up for the lose tomorrow.

He crept closer to the bed, as silently as the life of a ninja had taught him along with all the teachings of one over the top sensei. Naruto doubted his little wife was wearing anything but panties, finding out early in the courtship that she didn't like sleeping in restricting clothes if she could help it. Sakura was wearing one of his brightly colored shirts, Naruto was sure that had she been awake and standing the shirt would have looked more like a dress on her petite form. As it was the shirt was bunched up under her enlarged breast and showing off her swollen abdomen.

Naruto slid into the bed and then gently removed the pillow from her arms and tucking it under his head, his wife stirred and he wrapped his arms around her. "Naruto?" came the drowsy question.

He smiled and nodded his head gently, "Yeah." He pulled her close to him, nuzzling his face in the crook of her neck before inhaling deeply, he hadn't been aware of how much he had missed her scent.

She wrapped her small, but powerful, arms around his shoulders and pulled him closer. "I'm glad your home," she said tiredly, "I've missed you."

"I've missed you too," and then placed a hand to her stomach, "as well as you, little one." he mumbled lovingly before sleep consumed him in a wave of exhaustion.

His wife never did wake him up the next morning, his wife had let him sleep until mid-afternoon. She had picked his cloak up, washed it, and even hung it to dry. When Naruto had finally awoken she carefully jumped on top of him, mindful of the small life growing inside her, exclaiming how lonely she had been with out him and that today he had better pay extra attention to her. He had then proceed to have an amazing morning filled with loving his wife with all he had to offer.
