Chapter Ten
"Ah! I want them out already!" Naruto complained from the couch.
"You're only one day overdue. Tsunade said if you go another week, she'll take the kids out anyways." Sasuke said putting a shirt on Mamo.
The twins third birthday went well. There were lots of red and blue balloons. With a cake they kept digging in before Naruto could cut it. Some of their friends also came and showed off their new babies.
Iruka would come visit Naruto more when Sasuke would go on missions and helped Naruto with the twins. Naruto got to a point where he hated that Sasuke got to out and be alone while he was home with two toddlers and pregnant. But he knew they both couldn't just stay home. Kids were expensive. Diapers alone were adding up. With Seto still in them, Mamo only wearing them at night and needing a shit ton of newborn diapers; they needed the money.
"Where's Seto?" Naruto questioned.
"I think he's in one of rooms. He really likes his baby doll." Sasuke said to Naruto as Mamoru ran off.
"I just hope he understands he can't play with his baby brother and sister like that."
Sasuke started rubbing Naruto's feet. "I do have something to show you."
"What?"
Sasuke got up and walked to the bedroom no one was using. He came back out holding a gift bag.
"What's this?"
Sasuke smiled. "Open it."
Naruto opened the bag and almost started crying. Inside was a little pink dress with the Uchiha symbol on it. Along with a few pink onesies, matching shoes, mittens and socks.
"Sasuke?"
"I can't have my princess come home in a green onesie. She's going to be so spoiled so why not start now? Besides, as soon as Iruka finds out, he'll probably buy out the story of girlie things."
Naruto laughed. He knew he was right. Naruto stared at the pink frilly dress. It even had a small tutu with glitter on it. Oh, it was going to be fun dressing her up. But knowing Naruto, she'll be just like Sasuke and insist on just wear shorts and T-shirt's.
"I love it, Teme. Thank you."
They bought outfits for the children already but felt they needed fresh new clothes to home in instead of them using the twin boys' old clothes only. Since they were still hiding what they were having from everyone, all the clothes were neutral colors.
Suddenly they hear screaming and something breaking. Sasuke jumped up with Naruto trying to get up.
When they got to Mamo's room they saw Seto with a scratch on his face crying and Mamoru screaming.
"What the hell happened?"
Naruto tried to squat down to check Mamoru but felt like he didn't think he'd be able to get back up. So instead he sat in the rocking chair having Mamo in his arms looking him over.
Sasuke went to get a wet rag to clean up the blood.
"What happened?" Sasuke asked Seto.
"Mamo hit with car. So I hit with doll."
Naruto sighed.
"You both know you can't through things in the house. Do I need to put you in time out?"
"No!" They yelled.
"We should put you in time out. You can't do this when your baby brother and sister come home. I think you both need to stay in your rooms." Sasuke grabbed Seto's hand as he escorted the toddler to his room.
Naruto stayed on the chair glaring at Mamo.
"Why did you hit your brother?"
"He no play with me."
"That's not a good enough excuse. Are you going to hit and throw things at you baby brother and sister?"
"No."
"Then why do it to your own twin brother?" Naruto sighed again. "Mamoru. Daddy and Papa are going to bring home two more babies in the house soon. I need to know I can trust you not to be mean to them."
"Sorry Daddy."
"Good." Naruto kissed his forehead. "You're still in trouble though. You're going to stay in your room till dinner."
Mamoru glared at his daddy but Naruto places him on the bed before walking out.
He found Sasuke on the couch with his head in his hands.
"What excuse did Seto give you?" He asked sitting down next to his husband.
"He didn't want to play cars." Sasuke leaned back. "You will give birth any minute now and they're still fighting. Albeit it's less then when they shared a room but still."
"It's only going to get worse. When we have two newborns in the house and all our attention will be on them. They are going to act out so we can be with them instead. Maybe every now and then we take them out on their own so they don't feel left out. I can ask Iruka to babysit."
"Yeah. That sounds great."
"Why don't I cook tonight? What are you in the mood for?"
Sasuke looked over at Naruto. Naruto wasn't exactly the best cook. He could make some meals but it either was bland or burnt. Sasuke wondered how his kids were still alive while he was away on missions.
"I'll make it easy on you. Since you shouldn't be on your feet too much, why don't I cook. I'll make fish, rice and tempura vegetables."
"Thanks. I'm going to take a nap. I'm so tired lately." Naruto eases his way off the couch and slowly made his way to his bedroom.
Once on the bed he tried to sleep but couldn't get comfortable. He gave up and laid there rubbing his belly.
As much as he liked knowing he was giving Sasuke his future, pregnancy sucked. His feet hurt. His back hurt. Insomnia was a bitch too. He just wanted for it to stop. Though the children were taking their sweet time, Naruto was getting nervous. He had the boys almost a month early. Now he's just one day overdue. He thought the second pregnancy was supposed to be easier.
He felt someone climb in bed with him. Judging by the weight, it was one of the children. He looked to his right and saw Seto sitting there.
"You're supposed to be in your room."
"I thirsty."
"Go ask Papa for a drink then go back to your room."
"No. You get drink."
"Seto, daddy isn't feeling well. Please go ask Papa."
"No! You."
Naruto closed his eyes and counted to ten. "Fine. I will get your drink but you still have to go to your room."
As Naruto got up, he felt a sharp pain across his abdomen. He bent over holding himself as another jolt hit him.
"Seto! Seto, go get Papa!"
"Papa! Papa! Daddy hurt!" Naruto heard his three-year-old say running out of the room.
Sasuke rushed in the room. Naruto was bent over in pain.
"Are you ok? Are in labor?" Sasuke inquired.
"We need to go. Now! Call Iruka when we get to the hospital so he can watch the boys."
"Can you walk?"
"I don't know."
Sasuke created two shadow clones. One went to get Mamoru and Seto while the other went in search for Iruka as he helped Naruto out of the house.
The walk to the hospital had to be the longest walk Naruto has ever taken. Every other block he cried out in pain.
Once at the hospital they saw Iruka-sensei pacing the waiting room. When spotted the family, he rushed over.
"Are you labor?"
"What kind of question is that? Why else would I be in this much fucking pain?"
Iruka smiles sheepishly. "I'll take the boys. Go find Lady Tsunade."
"I'll be right back." Sasuke said sitting Naruto down.
Naruto tried to breathe. He didn't want to scare his twin boys but could see their worried faces. Where the hell is Granny?
Soon Sasuke returned with a nurse and a wheelchair.
"Tsunade-Sama wants me to take you the delivery room and get you started." The nurse said.
Sasuke helped Naruto up and into the chair.
"Don't worry about them," Iruka said. "I have them."
Naruto was wheeled in one of the delivery rooms.
"Please wait outside while I get him undressed and properly ready." The nurse said as Sasuke tried to walk in.
The nurse gently helped Naruto up on the table after he undressed and put on a hospital gown.
She administered the anesthesia before laying him down and strapping his arms. Then setting up the curtain.
"I'll get your husband now. Tsunade-sama should be here in a few minutes. The anesthesia should completely kick in in about ten minutes. Just hold tight."
"Hold tight?! What else am I supposed to fucking do?" Naruto screamed as Sasuke walked in.
"Naruto." He went to his husband's side. "How are you holding up?"
"You better so lucky, Uchiha! You are so lucky you're getting your girl and I don't have to do this again because so help me, I'll cut your balls off and force feed them to you!"
Sasuke slightly blanched. Naruto has never threatened his manhood before.
Naruto screamed as another contraction hit. Soon enough they stopped and he was able to breathe easier.
"Where is Tsunade?" Sasuke said looking at the door.
Almost as if she heard his question, Tsunade walked in with two nurses.
"Sorry. Let's get these babies out of you, ok Naruto?"
Soon Sasuke watched Tsunade use a chakra blade to open his husband. This time things were a bit easier but it still bothered him to know Naruto was being cut open.
Ten minutes later, a small scream was heard in the room.
"Congratulations. It's a boy!" She handed their son to a nurse while she worked on getting their daughter out.
Five minutes later, another scream. "It's a girl!" She handed her to the other nurse.
The first nurse brought their son to Sasuke. "Usui. Look Naruto, it's Usui." The tiny baby in his arms had Naruto's blonde hair and his whisker marking.
Naruto cried. He looked over to his daughter waiting for her to be brought over.
Finally, she was also settled in Sasuke's arms as well. "Sayuri." This little girl had Sasuke's hair color with Naruto's whisker marks too.
Now their family was truly complete.
"Ok. We're done with the easy part. Next, I have to remove these organs. Sasuke, hand the newborns to Itssu and Ormolu. They will take them to the nursery. You have the option of going with them or staying while I do this surgery."
Sasuke looked at Naruto after handing off his newborns. "I'm not leaving his side."
Naruto smiled. "We'll see them soon enough and we can introduce the boys to their baby brother and sister."
"Naruto, I need you to just breathe. Luckily these organs are almost identical to a female's so it shouldn't be hard to remove."
Naruto looked over at Sasuke, "I'm ok baby."
"I know you are. Just relax. It'll be over soon.
Naruto closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.
When Naruto woke next, Sasuke was sitting in the chair next to him. He looked deep in thought.
"Teme?" He felt groggy.
"Hey. Don't move too much. Tsunade said you'll be in even more pain this time than last."
"Where are the children?" Naruto still tried to sit up.
Sasuke seeing his dobe wasn't to heed doctor's orders, he helped Naruto up saying, "the newborns are still in the nursery. Iruka is with the boys still but last I saw him all of them were looking through the window. Seto is upset he doesn't have your whiskers."
Naruto chuckled. "Can I see them?"
"Of course." Sasuke went out the room returning shortly carrying Usui and Iruka holding Sayuri and the twin boys holding to their Papa's shirt.
"They have my eyes this time. Iruka almost punched me when he found out we've been hiding a little girl from him." Sasuke handed Usui to Naruto.
"Naruto, you have such a beautiful family." Iruka stated also handing Sayuri to Naruto.
Naruto couldn't help but cry. He was overwhelmed with joy. He had amazing friends. A wonderful husband and partner. Four gorgeous children to help rebuild the Uchiha clan. Everything he's ever wanted was in the room with him.
"So? Boys, what do you think of your baby brother and sister?" Naruto asked as Sasuke carefully placed the twin boys on the bed with Naruto.
Seto went to touch Sayuri. "She looks like brother." Then he looked at Usui. "He looks like me!"
"Mamo, what do you think?" Sasuke asked rubbing his back.
Mamoru looked at everyone in the room before he says, "why we no have whiskers?"
"You just weren't meant too, baby boy." Sasuke answered.
"Can we go home now?"
"Not now. Daddy has to stay here with baby brother and sister. But Papa will take you out to eat and sleep. Sometimes Iruka-Sensei will help out too." Naruto said.
"They go home with us?"
"Yes." Sasuke started.
"Why?" Mamo moves closer to Usui.
"Because we're family and we can't leave family behind."
Naruto looked at Sasuke. He knew his husband was trying not to cry in front of everyone.
Usui started fussing.
"Sasuke, take Sayuri." Once he was one child less, Naruto adjusted the newborn boy on his chest trying to calm him down.
"Seto. Mamo. When Daddy comes home, it's not going to like it was before." Naruto started.
They've had many conversations over the last few months with the boys about how things would be. But talking to them wouldn't be the same as when they had to deal with two am feedings and blood curdling screaming because of ear infections when they cut a tooth.
"That's right. You two are now big brothers. You have to be big helpers and remember that just because they are as small as your baby dolls, you can't play with them like that until they get a bit bigger." Sasuke ruffled both of his sons' hair (separately).
Seto leaned over and kissed Usui's leg. "I your big brother now. I love you."
Mamo stared at Sayuri. "Papa?"
"Yes?" Sasuke turned to Mamoru seeing he point to his sister.
Mamo stroked her whiskered check then leaned in to kiss her. "I your big brother too. I kick butt if you are sad. I love you."
Naruto yawned.
"I'll take the boys, Naruto. That way you can get some more rest." Iruka turned to the twin boys, "who's hungry?"
Both boys yelled "me" before getting off the bed.
"Bye Daddy. Bye Papa." Seto said grabbing Iruka's hand.
Mamo grabbed the other. "Bye Usui. Bye Sayuri."
The small group left the room leaving the fathers and newborns alone.
"How much you want to bet that Usui is going to be like Seto and me while Sayuri is going to be like Mamo and you?"
"More than likely the other way. I'm hoping that since she'll be around Sakura's daughter she won't feel left out."
"If we ever have any female questions, Sakura will help." Naruto said while having Usui suck on his pinky. "Switch babies with me."
"No." Sasuke said holding Sayuri tighter.
Naruto rolled his eyes. "She's only two hours old and already spoiled."
"You knew that was going to happen, dobe."
Naruto did know it. He knew he was going to spoil her too just not as much as Sasuke.
"I love you, teme. I'm glad I was able to give you everything you've ever wanted. Your clan is revived."
Sasuke kisses Naruto. "If this wouldn't have been possible, I'd probably be in an unhappy marriage right now. I'm so grateful to have you. To have our children. They will be great shinobis when they get older."
"Let's just hope they don't goof around and do dumb things."
"They're my kids, dobe. They are Uchihas. Even if they act like you did, they will still be smarter by default."
"Asshole." Naruto muttered.
"Hey! No swearing in front of the children!" Sasuke grinned.
Yes, life would never be the same again and Naruto wouldn't have it any other way.
