Chapter 8
There things were securely packed. The box with their toys and outfits was taped shut. Their clothes were in separate boxes, one for Sasuke, one for Hinata. The only thing left was the bed. Sasuke has sealed the dresser but didn't pack it away as he was going to seal the bed with it tomorrow.
"Whew we're all done. I'm gonna move this to the living room then go grab the guys you sit tight until I get back, Ocha," Sasuke pecked her lips, then picked up all three boxes with the scroll perched on top.
Midnight walked into the bathroom with a medium sized box and ziploc bags hanging off his tail. He was wearing a light pink bandanna around his neck and looked proud of it. Hinata watched from the door way as her summon placed their toothbrush and toothpaste inside of a ziploc bag.
He threw that inside the box and did the same with their soaps. Midnight opened the door under their sink and began packing that into the box. Feminine hygiene products, brushes, combs, hair products, a blow dryer, etc was neatly put in the box. Once the small cat was done he balanced the box on his back using his tails to keep it steady. Hinata attempted to take the box but Midnight swerved out of her way.
"Your having kittens soon you mustn't be stressed or have to do meaningless labor," Midnight said walking out the room. Soon Sasuke walked through the door with all the guys in tow. Immediately they got to work sealing, writing on boxes and packing things away. Shino walked up to her and silently asked to touch her stomach to which she immediately said yes. He let out a genuine smile and leaned into Hinata's ear.
"Kiba and I have been thinking of adopting a baby. We also moved in together last week. Don't tell about the baby thing we're nervous I want to do it when you have your kids. Except for Sasuke but you have to make him promise to not say a word," Hinata almost squealed but held it back. She smiled widely and hugged her bestfriend hard but was mindful off her stomach. She nodded vigorously so much so Shino worries her head would come off.
She couldn't believe it she couldn't wait for them to adopt. She remembered when they first told her of their relationship at 15. They were fidgety but their hands were firmly clasped together, the blush on their cheeks wouldn't leave as they told her. The smile didn't leave their faces though it didn't leave hers either as she pried for details and how long it had been going on before they told her.
She let go of her teammate and noticed his new change of attire. He didn't cover up as much anymore but still had his quiet nature around. He dressed in jounin pants with a white T-shirt and ninja sandals. His hitai-ate was around his head but his now longer hair fell around it in soft curls. He no longer wore shades well he did but not as often—definitely Kiba's influence there— so his piercing silver eyes stood out. I mean he had beautiful eyes so of course they would.
Shino was one hell of a catch she mused. Team 8 looked great all grown up. Kiba wore a blood red oversized sweatshirt that hung over his hands along with light jeans. His hair was fluffier and longer and his face was chiseled out more but his playful personality made him look younger than he actually was. His toned body was hidden beneath the clothing which she could tell Shino wasn't happy about. She laughed to herself about it but he wore regular ninja sandals. Shino walked away and continued packing wandering into the weapons room with Sasuke to help.
Soon everything was packed away and they picked up the paint buckets to paint the house today left everything dry and move everything in tomorrow that was the plan at least. Hinata refused to not do anything she hated feeling useless. She tightened her dark red bandanna around her head. She picked up the smallest canister of varnish paint and attempted to walk out the door. Shikamaru took the can from her smirk and shook his head. Hinata pouted and walked outside moving out of the guys way who were holding multiple canister, paintbrushes and water. Sai looked especially happy as he called dibs on designing the nursery and even offered to do it again once they were older.
She closed the door behind them but not before looking inside the empty apartment save for her bed. She pulled her hair into one messy bun at the base of her head with a pony tail holder secured around her wrist.
They soon made it to the new home with the girls waiting with smiles on their faces. Immediately they took cans from the boys who protested their pregnant wives/girlfriends doing anything. They were to late as they rushed in the house before their boyfriends/ husbands could stop them. Hinata laughed at her friends antics. She joined them but slightly waddles and heard Kiba and Sasuke snicker at her. She threw them a glare with the Byakugan activated then gasped she could she her babies her stomach. They were so cute and small. They moved around to.
She heard a similar gasp and saw Neji activate his Byakugan cooing at the babies. He scrambled next to her and touched her enlarged stomach. One of the girls kicked Neji's hand. Hinata winced she did that pretty hard. Neji removed his hand apologetically seeing what had happened. She continued into the house only to see the girls putting certain canisters and brushes into the respective rooms with the samples making it easier. Once they were done with that. The guys had walked into the house.
Immediately they got to work painting the walls and Sai rushed into the nursery which all the girls thought was unbearably cute. Hinata sighed everything was falling into place. They have a house, there wedding was fully planned, she was pregnant with twins and had all there thing ready to be moved. Hinata couldn't help but feel something was going to go wrong.
•••••••••
A month later
It was done. They were moved in and waiting on the arrival of their babies. They were in time with their due date which was March 25 but it was March 20 in the late late night. Ino and Sakura had their babies a week apart, Sakura first February 29 a baby girl Kirin and Ino next March 10 baby boy Inojin.
Shino and Kiba popped into her head. They had gone to a foster home in search of a baby. They were excited and when they broke the news to everyone the reactions were the same: a mix of 'oh my god', 'awwww', 'that's amazing', etc was thrown around with hugs. Overall they were happy with the results. But something broke her thoughts.
It seemed like water was poured over her groin as it soaked the couch and floors. Almost immediately a painful pressure was on her stomach. It felt like she was punched in the stomach. Grabbing her stomach she tried to remember what Ino told her contractions felt like. It hit minutes later and Sasuke walked into the room when it happened.
"Does it hurt when that happens?" He tilted his head to the side.
Hinata nodded," Y-yea a bit," she groaned and breathed through it.
Sasuke snorted and shook his head. He turned and walked into their room.
"Where ya going?"
"To the bedroom"
Another contraction hit, they were 4 minutes apart. Guess they were going to have the babies now. Sasuke walked in with their hospital bag, stripped her of all her clothes including underwear, pulled a yellow dress on her and stuck a towel between her legs. Hinata groaned in embarrassment.
"MIDNIGHT," Sasuke called.
"Yes Master Sasuke" the cat poked his head from around the corner
"Get Naruto and tell her we are having the baby. Tell him to let the rest of Konoha 12 know."
Midnight nodded and sped out the door tracking down the chakra signature. Meanwhile, Sasuke lifted his fiancée up bridal style and flickered to the hospital. Immediately staff knew what was going on a called for Tsunade. She was placed on a hospital bed and changed into a hospital and hooked up to IV.
"3 minutes apart," Sasuke commented when another contraction hit making her groan in agony. Hinata huffed they hurt like hell. She activated her Byakugan to check on her babies. They were tilting down now. Ohh yea they were definitely ready. More nurses poured into the room checking on her state and the babies.
"One and half minutes apart," one called when another ran through her.
"Go call Naruto just in case Midnight hasn't gotten to him or he'll never forgive you."
Sasuke chuckled at the truth in it but just as he went to go do that a nurse told him many people were in the waiting room. They included Naruto, Shino, Kiba, Shikamaru, Temari, Neji, TenTen, Lee, Ino and Sai. He was informed Sakura and Tsnade were the mid-wives.
The nurses were getting Hinata's legs into the metal strappy things, putting a sheet over her now upraised legs then looking under the sheet. As if Sasuke hadn't seen her naked before. Sasuke pulled up a chair next to the bed and held her hand. He winced when she squeezed his hand as a another contraction hit.
Once it was over the nurses smiled at her. There was a basin of water by the bed with a cloth, a tray with some tools near her legs, and another basin off to one side which would likely be used to wash her babies. Cloths and blankets in pink were on a rack near the bigger basin and Hinata stared.
"You're four centimeters dilated. Lara will stay with you then call in the midwives on duty once you're fully dilated," the nurse said.
Lara, blue eyed, blonde , petite, with a nice smile, nodded. Hinata returned the gesture and everyone in the room left besides Lara and Sasuke. Hinata gritted her teeth when another contraction hit her. She let out a breath when it was over then leaned back as far as the upraised bed would let her.
"How long does this take?" Hinata questioned.
"Anywhere from an hour up to eight or nine hours," Lara said. "It depends on your children."
Hinata remembered reading it in one of the pregnancy books now that Lara had reminded her. Hinata groaned. She hoped this was quick.
—————————————————————
Are you fucking kidding me?" Hinata groaned in a uncharacteristic way.
Sasuke winced at her curse as that wasn't very Hinata but she didn't give a crap. She had been going through these stupid contractions for seven friggin hours and she was still seven centimeters dilated. She had hit the seven centimeter mark five hours ago, after two painful hours, but now her twins were resting in her pelvis.
"This is your fault," Hinata told Sasuke .
"Hn," he hummed in agreement.
She squeezed his hand and he winced. She got a bit of satisfaction out of that until another contraction hit her. Hinata snarled out her pain, squishing Sasuke's hand in hers and shifting forward. The contraction stopped a minute later and a half and she let out a breath.
It was one in the morning on March 21st, she felt like a pig from all the sweat running down her body, she was aching all over. She felt even worse then the senbon sparring with her and Neji.
All she wanted to do was push her twins out then take a nap. They apparently had decided to take a nap in her. She would always remind them of this day the little buggers.
Another contraction hit and she growled. She spotted Sasuke cringing as she squeezed his hand but didn't care. He was a shinobi for crying out loud and one of the most powerful at that. He could take it. Besides, he wasn't in the middle of labor or about to push a watermelon out of a small hole.
The contraction finished and she let out a breath. She could hear voices beyond the door of her room, Kiba and Naruto, as they chattered about the baby or whatever they talked about at one in the morning while she was in pain.
Another contraction.
"FUCK,"
Sasuke almost whimpered—almost. She let out a breath when it was over. Lara checked on her with a little smile and Hinata had the urge to kick the woman in the face then berated herself for her thoughts.
"Oh, eight centimeters," Lara said.
"Finally," Hinata got out.
Lara chuckled but picked up the phone in the room. Hinata growled as another contraction hit. She felt one of her babies sitting low in her pelvis and pushed. She probably shouldn't be pushing but she didn't give a crap.
Two minutes later her door opened to reveal Tsunade-sama and Sakura in matching white gowns with white gloves on their hands. Hinata gaped in the middle of a contraction as Sakura followed Tsunade in. Lara left.
"You're the midwives?" Hinata asked.
"Yep, have been for everyone else so why not?" Tsunade returned.
Hinata opened her mouth to ask, well, something but a contraction hit and she groaned instead. Tsunade sat on a small rolling chair before flipping up Hinata's sheet while Sakura moved around the room setting it up even more for the babies. Hinata said nothing when she felt gloves against her body.
"Woah, you're all ready ten centimeters, feel free to push with your contractions," Tsunade said.
"Good god," Hinata growled like Kiba.
She pushed. She heard Sasuke grunt but didn't give a crap about what kind of pain he was going through. He could get his hand healed later. Right now she had their twins to deliver. The contraction ended and Hinata let out a puff of air. She activated her Byakugan.
"Good, good, push again when another hits," Tsunade said.
Hinata snarled as her next contraction hit, pushing down as hard as she could. She kept a close eye on her babies every time she did so. They moved forward each time. The process was repeated five or six more times, she honestly lost count, until she spotted Sakura grinning.
"You're crowning," Sakura said.
Hinata licked the sweat off her lips and looked to Sasuke. He had perked up in his chair, onyx eyes wide, and lips parted slightly. His head had turned towards Tsunade and Sakura. Hinata hissed as another contraction hit and she pushed.
"And we've got a forehead, eyes, nose, lips, chin, stop," Tsunade said.
Hinata gasped as she stopped. She felt movement around her lower lips which felt incredibly weird. Another contraction hit but Hinata didn't push with it.
"Okay, go," Tsunade said.
Hinata huffed but pushed. Oh god it hurt! Her lower body felt like it was on fire as she shoved to get her first child out. She had been so concentrated on the pains of her contractions she hadn't noticed the pain of actually pushing her kid out. It hurt even worse, she didn't even think it was possible.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow," Hinata wheezed.
"Hn," Sasuke hummed comfortingly using his thumb to rub her knuckles.
Hinata focused her Byakugan on her pelvis and her sniffles. She gasped and turned as the snivel became a loud wail. Tsunade had a grin on her face as she lifted baby one into the air.
"It's a girl," Tsunade said.
Hinata felt tears rolling down her cheeks as their baby girl was wrapped in a towel and her umbilical was clamped. Tsunade offered the cutters to Sasuke who took them with wide eyes and a dropped jaw. He cut the cord and Sakura went to the basin to clean up their little girl, Hikari
"March 21st, 1:36am," Tsunade said.
Hinata gasped as another contraction hit her. Oh right. She had another baby in there. Hinata pushed but Tsunade told her to stop almost instantly.
"Okay, go,"
Hinata kept pushing. She felt baby two slip out of her then gaped when the sobbing started almost immediately. Hinata sat up to watch in awe as baby two was wrapped, clamped, and this time she was offered the cutters.
"It's a girl by the way," Tsunade said.
Hinata grinned as she cut the cord then fell back into her bed. She watched as Tsunade went over to the basin to clean off their still crying Kitai as Sakura hurriedly wrapped up Hikari.
"March 21st, 1:47am,"Tsunade said.
Hinata started laughing but stopped when Sakura walked up to them with a dark pink bundle in her arms. Hinata stared at Sasuke who had gone completely stiff in his chair, mouth wide, eyes almost popping out of his head, and his hand loose in hers.
"Give her to Sasuke ," Hinata said.
Sakura grinned and nodded. Sasuke blinked but kept gaping as Hikari was put into his waiting arms. Hinata pursed her lips to keep from laughing as Sasuke stared down at the bundle in his arms with a stunned face.
"You okay there, tiger?" Hinata asked.
Sasuke looked up at her so quickly his neck cracked. He nodded then went back to staring at Hikari. At least Sasuke had closed his mouth. Hinata beamed when Tsunade came over with Kitai wrapped in pink. Hinata held the pink bundle close and got her first look at her daughter. She frowned.
"She looks like a prune," Hinata said.
"They were in water for nine months," Sasuke remarked.
Hinata laughed.
"Does she look like a prune?"
"A cute prune,"
"Lemme see,"
Sasuke got up slowly then sat beside her on the bed. Hinata looked down at Hikari and blinked.
"She looks like a prune too," Hinata said.
"Hn,"
She snickered at him then kept looking at her pink prunes. Both breathed normally and she could feel Kitai's heart beat through the blanket, she could see it to. Oh yea, her byakugan was still activated. She turned it off to look at her babies in normal vision.
"Your first girl weighs four pounds, six ounces and your second girl weighs four pounds, eight ounces. What are their names?" Tsunade asked.
"Hikari and Kitai ," Hinata said.
Tsunade grinned. Sakura was cleaning up the room while Hinata watched. She grunted when something slipped out between her legs and Tsunade chuckled at her. Hinata said nothing as another something slithered out then remembered these were the placenta. Hinata decided looking at Kitai was better than thinking about afterbirth.
"I'll start filling out forms for birth certificates. Do you guys want a few minutes before people start coming in?" Tsunade questioned.
"People?" Hinata returned. She turned to Sasuke who had seen how many were outside the door. She knew Shino, Kiba and Naruto but who else?
Tsunade helped her lower her legs. She hadn't even remembered she was still spread out. She hadn't felt Sakura healing her, she had been so focused on Kitai .
" Naruto, Shino, Kiba, Shikamaru, Temari, Neji, TenTen, Lee, Ino and Sai are our there," Sakura said.
"Really?" Hinata asked.
Tsunade nodded with a grin.
"We'll take twenty minutes please," Hinata said.
Tsunade nodded. Hinata didn't notice when the two women left, so intent she was on Kitai. She gave a little yawn and Hinata grinned. Hinata looked to Sasuke who had lied down next to her, holding Hikari in his arms and staring at their daughter with a little smile.
"How are you doing?" Hinata questioned.
"Amazing," Sasuke replied.
He had tear streaks down his face but wasn't crying anymore. He did hold Hikari one handed while he ran a finger over their daughter's cheek. Hinata grinned at him before snuggling against him carefully. Sasuke hummed but leaned towards her, his cheek coming to rest on the top of her head. Hinata giggled as they watched their babies.
Hikari sneezed and Kitai yawned again.
Hikari gushed but noticed neither opened their eyes despite the fact their eyelids weren't all that swollen.
She noticed Hikari looked just like her save for her fathers button nose, ears and high cheek bones and her dad's hair color. Kitai looked like her to but she had her dad's spiky hair, button nose, skin tone and her hair color was interesting she had all only blue-purple hair more on the blue side really but she had a evident streak of the inky black coloring of her father.
"Why aren't their eyes opening?" Sasuke asked.
"Hyuuga babies don't have white eyes when they are just born more like a bright pale blue that shows their byakugan is developing. They won't open them for at least 5 days then when they do they have color and then a week later they get the full pupiless white eyes. The longer they stay closed the stronger it is. Mine was a week, Hanabi's was 6 days Neji's was 9 days."
"Wow that's amazing," Sasuke mused playing with Hikari's small hands.
Soon their alone time with their bundles of joy was over. Naruto burst through the door and rushed over to Sasuke's side.
"Baby girls," the hyperactive ninja cooed.
Shino and Kiba made their way over to Hinata's side cooing and making soft noises at Kitai who giggled and blindly reached for the source of the noise.
"Hold her, Kiba," Kiba sputtered and tried to deny scared of hurting the small baby before he was put in his arms. It immediately melted away as Kiba cooed and smiled at Kitai. Hinata smiled at seeing her teammates fawn over their goddaughters.
"What are their names?" Shino's deep voice came through.
"Hikari and Kitai Uchiha," Sasuke said proudly while he handed Hikari over to Neji and TenTen.
"I want a baby to y'know," Temari's teasing voice spoke. Kiba carefully handed over Kitai for Shikamaru and Temari to hold.
Neji and TenTen gave Hikari to Ino and Sai. "Hinata your babies are so adorable," Ino complimented.
"Thank you. Inojin is as well."
Soon Tsunade opened the door. "Everyone except Sasuke out Hinata needs to breastfeed and rest. Everyone filtered out without protests. Hikari was now in Hinata's arms and Kitai was in Sasuke's.
Hinata pulled her breasts out to feed the babies and immediately they begin sucking and feeding. She looked down fondly at her babies she was a mother, she had her amazing almost husband, and a house. Life was amazing.
