A warm dampness flushed against her cheek was the first thing she noticed when she awoke from her slumber. Her arms and legs wrapped around the overly large body pillow, Hinata squinted her eyes open and wiped away at the drool on her cheek. With multiple warm fluffy pillows surrounding her she closes her eyes once more, rubbing away her grogginess. Sitting up carefully and leaning against the head board she looks around the room and sees traces of Sasuke from earlier that morning, all around the room. His top drawer was left slightly open with a shirt hanging out, there were extras clothes on top of the drawer spread out messily, and a lonely sock on the ground without it's other half. Leaving such a trail could only mean he woke up later than he had meant to. Sliding out of bed ever so carefully, she made her way to the en suite bathroom. A tube of toothpaste was left on the sink counter with its cap beside it and a toothbrush lay in a puddle of water. The glass door to the shower was kept swung open and the floor mat disheveled. He really had woken up late.


"Damn it all…" Sasuke said under his breath as he was taking his hand out of the front pocket of his flak jacket.

"Forgot something?" The ever so calm Shikamaru said as he looked up into the blue and cloud filled sky. Clipping his flak jacket pocket closed Sasuke let out an exasperated sigh in response. The two Jounin were on a basic surveillance mission around the perimeter of the village; quite a change from their usual S class ANBU missions they often went out on together. Though a basic mission it would take at least two days of their time before the second pair of shinobi took the next shift.

Placing his hands behind his head Shikamaru yawned. "You're lucky we aren't in need of any specific weapons this time around; so it's fine if you forgot something."

"Basic mission or not I like to be well equipped." His sharp eyes looked beyond the horizon and analyzed it for any disturbances. Sasuke scoffed internally as he thought to himself.

"With her due date coming so soon; you'll be assigned to less danger…I mean other missions. I've already prioritized you're schedule for you so you don't have to worry about not working before the baby is here." Naruto said with a grin while handing Sasuke a time sheet.

"Oh right." Shikamaru exclaimed as scratched the back of his head. "Temari said that the baby shower changed to a sooner date right?" Turning his pony tail clad head in the direction of Sasuke, Shikamaru smirked as the usually at tentative Uchiha was clearly spacing out. "Not enough sleep huh?"

"Mmm…" A disgruntled mumble left his lips. "Agh!" He snapped and grabbed a fist full of the bangs in his face disheveling them and then smoothing them back. Beside him Shikamaru held in his laughter at the out of character Sasuke. Releasing the hair from his clutches Sasuke tilts his head back and blinks hard as he look up to the sky.

"If you're like this now I wonder how you'll be when the real sleepless nights start happening." The future head of the Nara clan laughed abundantly out loud.


Sitting on the engawa Hinata basked in the warm sunlight as it fell perfectly into the front courtyard.

"Hinata!" Temari called out loud, she was entering the property through the gates; her right hand holding a bag and the other holding a basket of fruit.

Hinata smiled, she shifted to get up onto her feet.

"Sit! Sit!" Temari ran over hurriedly with a wide grin. She had become such great company to Hinata, almost as if she were her midwife. She frequently visited Hinata on her days off, sometimes even coming over when her days at work ended early.

"I brought over some snacks in case you got hungry. I just bought anything and everything in case." Temari sat down beside Hinata and rummaged through the bag she had.

"Thank you. You really don't have to pamper me so much. I'm sure you're busy."Hinata said while placing a gentle hand on Temari's knee.

"No, don't worry about it. I was free today anyways." Temari pulled out a small box of mochi. "Here have some." She said as she opened it.

Hinata gladly took a small mochi out and placed it in her mouth. Luckily it didn't have a strong effect on her.

Temari popped a mochi into her mouth, "So, how've ya been?"

Chewing slowly and then swallowing Hinata answered. "I've been good." She hesitated for a moment and the small pause caught Temari's attention.

"But?" Temari's eyes peered into Hinata.

"I had a strange dream last night." Hinata looked up into the sky and sighed.

"An erotic dream!? It's only natural, Sasuke's been gone for who knows how long and your hormones are running wild."

"No, not that kind of dream." The pearly eyed girl choked backed a giggle. "It was a cloudy day, almost sunset; the sky and clouds were a really vibrant pink."

"Oh! Sound like you had a pregnancy dream, well like those ones that predict the gender! They say pink clouds equals a girl!" Temari said excitedly as her eyes scanned the various flavors of mochi in the small box.

"But then I remember suddenly being at the ocean side and watching a huge sea turtle walking towards me."

"A boy, it's going to be a boy. I remember Lady Chiyo talking about this once; sea turtles are a tell tale sign of a baby boy. That's good! Men who are born from turtle dreams are always men of power! It does make sense being a mix of Uchiha and Hyuuga."

"Then a huge carp jumped out of the sea." Hinata sighed again.

"Huh. A carp? Then you'll have a baby girl? That is one whacked out dream you had. Twins maybe?" Temari said with a wry smirk.

"Twins?!" Hinata snapped. The thought never occurred to her. She shook at the thought of it, two at once? It made her want to faint.

"Twins would be great don't you think?" Temari picked up a strawberry flavored mochi and held it up, examining it against the sky. "Two birds with one stone."

Hinata's head perked up and she stood up slowly onto her feet. "What time is it?"

Temari looked up at her puzzled. "It's around 2 o'clock. Why?"

"Darn." Hinata hurriedly opened the front door. "I have an appointment, I've completely forgotten."

"With Shizune-san?" Temari gathered her things messily and followed behind Hinata. "Okay tell me what you need to bring, I'll help!" She said as the two scrambled into the house.


The heavy door swung open as Sasuke entered the male changing room in the Hokage building. With a heavy sigh he slipped off his flak jacket and headed over to his locker. Finally the never ending two day task of surveiling the borderline was over and all he wanted to do was go home and into bed. Opening his locker door he hung his jacket and quickly took off his sweat drenched shirt. The hinges of the main door creaked throughout the room as two men entered, chatting away with each other.

"Hey, you just finish?"

A familiar voice called out to Sasuke when he shut his locker door. In his peripheral a well known silhouette stood behind him. With his usual senbon in his mouth Genma waved goodbye to the Jounin he entered the room with. Sasuke watched the unfamiliar Jounin walk away to the further side of the room before turning around fully and placing his eyes back on Genma.

"Yeah." He habitually answered in a cold tone. His buckled the belt at his waist as he had changed into a new pair of pants.

"Man, I heard about Hinata. You guys sure did grow up fast." Genma said while walking to his locker two doors down from Sasuke. "Congrats. Hell, you sure beat the lot of us old men around here." He ended the sentence with a deep chuckle.

Sasuke ignored him, walking towards the door without a word. Swinging a large bag over his shoulder he wondered how Genma found out. Kakashi? Naruto? It had to be Naruto. Damn it. The due date was nearing and Hiashi's words came back to mind. Their security should be tighter. He knew they couldn't hide the fact forever, they've gone out a few times, and the whole village was probably a buzz behind his back. According to Naruto as far as their security everything was going fine, no news of anything happening behind the scenes. The Anbu task force around Hinata was still active and nothing suspicious had arisen yet. He scratched his head as he exited the Hokage residence. Perhaps not being in full control of the security was eating up at him. Sure he had it under control, but technically Naruto was the one handling it all as he insisted Sasuke entrust him with the new Uchiha family's security. Who better to trust to watch your back than the Hokage, and best friend, of your village—although Sasuke would never openly admit to Naruto being his best friend. With things out of his grasp he felt disoriented and easily irritated, not to mention he had more than just stress pent up.

By the time he'd realized it he made it home and as routinely as possible he gave a nod to the guards at the gate and watched the large gateway open. The sun was setting, the sky dawn a warm hue of reds and yellows. The vast sky's light shone candidly on his home in front of him. More than anything he wanted to sleep in his bed, with Hinata. He let out a disappointed deep sigh as he was reminded of the body pillow that would soon lie between them. Walking up onto the engawa he opens the sliding door and notices the silence throughout the home. He makes himself comfortable, taking off his shoes and setting down his bag of dirty clothes from earlier. The light emanating from the soon to be baby's room caught his attention.

Hinata giggled to herself as she ran her hand over a soft pillow in the shape of a shuriken. It's overly stuffed black fabric made the pillow look comical. Temari had seen it on their way back from the hospital earlier that day and had an urge to buy it for the baby. Her pearly eyes looked at the set of building blocks on the chest in front of her; another purchase Temari just had to buy along with the pillow. You're going to be so spoiled. Hinata set the pillow on the chest and placed her hand gently on her stomach. The multiple times she caught herself talking and continuously stroking her belly made her realize she was feeling lonely. Just the two of us. She wondered if that was how it was going to be.

"Ta-dai-ma."

Hinata's shoulders sprung up and she turned around. Sasuke rested his body on the frame of the door and had a crooked smirk on his face. He rarely ever said 'I'm home' and she could only fathom from the tone of his voice he was saying it mockingly. Yet the phrase warmed her heart, making her smile stupidly before replying.

"Ok-ae-ri." She spoke out every syllable, her eyes curving along with her lips. She watched as he made his way over to her. He looked tired, his eyes leaden. But no matter his appearance she was happy to have him home. Her lonesome soon faded away as his hands found their way around her waist, holding her close. His head rested in the crook of her neck heavily and she felt a warm sigh seep into her shoulder.

"You're back earlier than usual." Her hands slid up his back, fingernails gently digging into the fabric of his shirt.

"Yeah." He took another deep breath before finishing his sentence.

"Is something wrong?" Hinata pulled away to get a better look at him but his hands held her firm, not letting her backing off too far.

Her eyebrows furrowed worriedly as she peered into his dark eyes. "It's fine. The second team dispatched early." He quickly spoke to drive away any of her assumptions. Hinata gave him a once over once more with acquiesce before easing her head onto his chest. Sasuke stroked the back of her head lovingly.

"What's that?" He said curiously as he spotted the stuffed shuriken pillow on the dresser. Hinata looked over her shoulder and went to retrieve it; playfully throwing it at Sasuke as if it were the real thing.

"Temari bought it for the baby." Hinata sat at the edge of the preexisting bed and watched Sasuke gleefully as he tossed it gently, it rotating in the air as he examined the star shaped stuffy.

With a breath caught in her throat she urged him to sit at her side, calling his name and tapping at the spot beside her. The mattress rippled as he sat beside her. Shuriken pillow now at his side he leans back and lies flat onto the mattress. He exhaled loudly shutting his eyes and basking in the soft material beneath him.

"Long day?" Hinata asked while her eyes cast downward, watching the seemingly already half asleep husband beside her. A muffled groan escaped his closed lips, raising his arm he places it on his forehead and creaks open one eye too peek at her.

"You wake up late today?" She said as she strained back a giggle. His dark eyes shut as he turned his head to the side. The covers puffed up around him. Hinata laid down, now facing him, her bangs parted messily and pearly eyes scanned his face.

Crooking his head slightly Sasuke watched her pupils search his face. "What is it?"

"Nothing." She replied with a whisper. Sasuke stared down her dried and cracking lips before diving in for a kiss. Inhaling her scent while smothering her lips with his own, he felt his mind go blank and the pit of his stomach heat with arousal. She hummed as he coaxed her chapped bottom lip with the tip of his warm tongue. Welcoming the small moan he drove his tongue deeper into her mouth, clumsily knocking it into her front teeth. She exposed her mouth unlocking her lips fully; allowing him to enter as he pleased. Their tongues enveloped each other willingly, both attacking with ease. Hinata eased back for a moment's breath and watch Sasuke's face come back to life. His fatigued eyes were obsolete and instead were replaced with a deep erotic presence. She could see his hooded eyes processing as he kept them on her; waiting for a signal to continue.

Placing a gentle hand on his face, her fingers found their way into the locks of his hair. Sasuke shifted his body and lay on his side, taking hold of her hand and removing it from his head of hair. Propping himself up on the bed with his other arm he lean in for another sizzling kiss. Upon arriving at her lips he felt her clench her body; he watched as she writhed in pain, her teeth biting her bottom lip. She let out a painful cry. Standing quickly Sasuke helped her up into a sitting position. Take short bursts of breaths Hinata sat up with her eyes shut, one hand on her stomach and the other gripping the covers beside her. Sasuke watched his wife silently; he'd never seen her like this. Hinata looked up at the clueless Uchiha in front of her and achingly giggled.

"I'm fine." She shook her head and spoke with a smile, taking one last deep breath she looked up at him once again; this time with a large grin.

"I don't think I'll get used to this." Sasuke shook his head and let out a slight chuckle. Reaching out his hands to the side of her face he kisses her softly and squats down in front of her; kissing her stomach through her night gown. Letting a muffled laugh spurt through her lips she grins widely at his act.

"So she won't feel left out." He says while looking up at her with his usual stoic self.

Her eyes widen at his words. "She?" Hinata's head crooks with surprise.

"Well. That was some intense jealously I sensed." He stood and jeered at Hinata with a crooked closed mouth smile. "Only a woman could conjure such envy don't you think?" He extended his arms in her direction.

Taking hold of his hands and standing up slowly onto her feet Hinata shot him a wry smile. "He's just protective; like a certain someone." Hinata ended the sentence with a raised eyebrow and started to walk out of the room. Sasuke followed behind and let out a mix between a scoff and a laugh.

"He, huh?" He watched her gather her hair and rest it on her front as he walked behind her.

"We'll just have to wait and see who's right." Hinata looked over her shoulder as she stood in the bedroom threshold.

"If you weren't pregnant, I'd tackle you into bed right now." Sasuke said with an arrogant air surrounding him.

"And what would you have done to me after getting me into bed Sasuke-kun?" Hinata smiled and continued on, making her way to the bed and turning on the lamp at her nightstand. She was thrilled at their conversation, such innuendo was something they usually only had as foreplay. It always surprised her at how much she had changed from her once almost mute and shy personality. Since she had met Sasuke she discovered she had a sassy and witty side as well. Climbing into bed and resting on the head board she watched Sasuke escape his shirt.

"In how much detail would you like for me to explain what exactly I would do to you, Hinata?" He said with perfect timing as he undid his belt from its buckle. Hinata fought back the urge to lick her dry lips, at remembering their passionate kiss from earlier. Her hormones weren't helping her; she felt her panties gradually soaking up her sexual arousal at her name being said. She couldn't imagine engaging in sex at this point and time, no amount of experimenting or research could find a suitable position for her to be comfortable enough. But gauging how deep she had already fallen into heat; just a simple touch from him would be plenty to take her over the edge.

"You're a person born with a sharp silver-tongue. I expect a full summation." Hinata found her eyes following his belt as it slipped through the loops of his pants. She shot her eyes back up to his eyes, a satirical smile rose onto his lips as he knew where her interests lie. Hinata cursed herself internally and prepared herself for his upcoming smart remarks.

Sasuke watched as Hinata hurriedly shifted her eyes back up to his own after hungrily staring at his belt being taken off. She had just fed his vanity; he couldn't help but let out a smirk in her direction. He turned around to face his chest of drawers, placing his belt on the top of it. Just in time to hide the tent he was starting to pitch in his pants. His urges always grew strong around her it was the something that brought them together as well as part of the glue that made them stay together. Their relationship was one of inhibited lust and want. Unbuttoning his pants he turn back around to face her, he began to unzip his pants; stopping halfway to just let his boxer briefs partially exposed.

Hinata crooked her head and watched Sasuke turn around to face her, his pants unbuttoned and zipper pulled down half way, limiting her view. She look down to the hair resting on her left breast and fumbled her thoughts together to do something as if she were uninterested. He was playing with her; she could feel the electricity running between them in this game of who would cave first. Taking hold of her hair she ran her fingers through it and looked back up at him. Her lips opened slightly, but before she could spit out a sharp remark Sasuke stretched his arm across his chest, pressing it with his other arm. His ANBU tattoo flexing along with his chiseled muscles.

"I'll tell you after I shower." Sasuke smiled and made his way to their en suite bathroom. The newly discovered part of Hinata scoffed and she cleared her throat obviously.

"No need."

Sasuke looked over her shoulder, his body soon following as it turned around to look at Hinata. "I smell pretty bad." He slicked back his bangs and they sat back messily atop his head.

"You don't. If I couldn't handle it I'd be over the toilet right now." She could feel her conscious screaming at her. How bad do you wanna win!? SEX NOW? And just what position would be comfortable for you, ya harlot! But her hormones told her conscious to shut up. She was ready to blow; at this point his breath on her skin would be enough to give her release. Yet she didn't want to beg like how he wanted her to. She wanted to beat him, wanted to win him and as her reward she'd get the grand prize of relief.

"I know how tired you must be." Hinata nodded her head and patted the empty place beside her.

Sasuke watched Hinata swallow hard while patting the mattress beside her. His spot was waiting for him, but what he wanted to do more than anything else was ravish her, savor every inch of her; yet he knew he had no chance of fully letting his animalistic instincts take over. At the very least he'd be killing two birds with one stone if he were to get into the shower now. Bathe and beat the living hell out of the stiff member in his pants.

"Damn it Hinata." Sasuke looked down and shook his head. "If I get in bed right now god knows what I'll do to you." He looked up and let out a heavy breath.

"Come to bed and tell me what you want to do." Hinata grabbed her body pillow and threw it onto the ground inviting Sasuke into bed once again. Letting out a delighted smile Sasuke scoffed and dropped his pants, his firm and ready cock bursting from behind the thin fabric of his boxers.

Admiring the shape of his manhood as he neared the bed Hinata slid downward and lay her head on her pillow, she grinned underneath the covers that hid the bottom half of her face; her eyes curved like rainbows from her smile. She had won.

Scaling the bed Sasuke lifted the sheets and glided in beside her, his lips locking onto hers as he slid his hand onto her thigh. A tremble vibrated throughout Hinata's body, her toes curled at his hand slipping closer to her sopping wet womanhood. She brought her legs together tighter clamping his hand in between. He smiled against her lips in satisfaction.

"What do you want to do?" Her voice squeaked as she pulled back from him. His mouth agape he looked at her while biting his lower lip.

"This." His hand slipped out of her thighs, his palm running up to her pubic area. She flinched as his fingers brush through her course pubic hair, his middle finger dove downward just above her clitoris. Hinata shut her eyes as his fingertip sunk into her overflowing juices. He placed a gentle kiss on the bridge of her nose, awakening her. She hissed as his fingers delved deeper.

"How long are you going to keep me waiting?" Sasuke lowered his head and bit her on the shoulder with his canine. Suckling the bitten area he continued to mark her. Legs parting, she let him in. Long fingers ran against her drenched slit. His hips began to grind against her thigh; the wet tip of his tool seeped through his boxers and smeared itself onto her. He growled into her shoulder before placing his free hand behind her neck and clutching a handful of her hair. His wet fingers left her lower lips and made their way up to her breast. Getting to his knees he smothered her mouth with a fierce embrace. Slipping the strap of her night gown downward he brought out one of her breast and teased the raised nipple with his wet fingers.

Sasuke let her lips loose, his head tilting back as he look at the ceiling exasperated. His shaft was in Hinata's hand, she had pulled the front of his boxers down, unleashing his throbbing cock. She capped the oozing head of his member with her palm and encompassed the shaft. Slick with pre come she moved her hand up and down, turning her wrist ever so slightly as though ringing out its juices. His hips bucked, his back side tensing with every thrust.

Long dark hair shaped his face as he looked down onto her; Sasuke licked the corner of his lips as his mouth hung open. "I need you so bad." His eyes pleaded as he spoke with a rasp.

Hinata slid up ward, placing another pillow behind her head. Sasuke hurriedly took off his boxers and threw them behind him without a care.

Hinata pointed to space near the end of the bed. "Go on your knees."

Sasuke hesitated for a moment before doing as he was told. Kneeling in front of her he watched as she positioned both her feet on his thighs.

"Closer."

Inching nearer, the flat of her feet touched his lower stomach and she began to press her feet together at the base of his member. He shivered in delight at the new sensation. He crooked his head and stared down her body as he thrust once.

"Hold on to something." He said as he hunched over, her knees bent as he drew nearer to her; she dug into the sheets at her sides. With a quick and tough pull he removed her panties, spreading her legs he slipped them off her completely. Putting her legs back together he raised them and watched her closely for any discomfort.

"Sasuke…" Hinata grunted and shook her head, opposing him. Flustered Sasuke parted her legs and spread them wide once again, the bottom of her feet flat on the mattress beneath her. Positioning himself in between her open legs he places his member on her hard clit. The weight of his member landing on her sensitive spot made her wale out in pleasure. She hissed back a breath as her thighs began to shut around him. Her climax only made more blood rush to his upstanding member. Digging his fingers into the outside of her thighs he started to thrust, continuously rubbing against her stiff clit.

Hormones raging Hinata reached out for Sasuke's wrists, clenching on tightly. "Please, stop teasing me." She whined. Her hormones won, he conscious' mouth taped shut from interfering anymore. He could see her hair sticking onto the dampness of sweat that riddled the sides of her face. Encircling her slit with his wet tip he watched her squirm in front of him. Placing a hand on her pubic area, his thumb gently stroked her clitoris as he entered her hotness. He swallowed hard upon entering her, his cock felt like it would melt. Her overflowing juices encased him and her walls clamped around him tightly.

"Fuck." He gasped aloud. He sheathed himself within her again, this time basking in the feel of her heat and feeling her walls constantly change around his shape as she twitched uncontrollably. Continuously plunging deep within her, his shoulders tensed just as he pulled out. On the verge of orgasm he stroked his shaft vigorously before thrusting his cock on her hardened clit one last time, releasing a spur of his seed onto her.
