Oh, god I'm really sorry for the hiatus! I've been busy/lazy recently since school ended and most of my time's been consumed by my friends/parents. One again, I am honestly sorry! I'm gonna try and make up for it ASAP

A Father
Part IX- Month Three: Step-By-Step
Step 1: Warm-up
Like his normal wake-up call, the shine shone through the window and right into Naruto's face. He opened his eyes and looked over his shoulder to see an empty space in his bed
Great, Sakura's awake already. He thought to himself and he fell out of his bed. After getting dressed, he stood in an empty spot in the room and began to stretch. Not normal "Touch your toes" stuff. More like girl's gymnastics stuff. You can tell he was preparing for something big. He walked over to his door and turned the knob. As soon as he opened it Sakura's voice boomed
"Naruto, get down here! We need to talk about something! You won't know what's happening NOW!"
Step 2: Running
"Um, sorry, Sakura; but I gotta get to work!" Naruto quickly said back by grabbing his shoes and a jacket
"What 'work'?" Sakura shouted back, "You're a ninja who just has to optionally walk into a building for his job. I think you can handle ONE DAY where you can just stay here and help me out!"
"Yeah . . . I got missions to do! Don't wanna live in a cardboard box!" Naruto said in an attempt to sneak out. Before Sakura had the chance to yell at him once more, he slammed the door and dashed out
Step 3: Raids
"Geez, you'd think Naruto can actually stay here for once?" Sakura mumbled to herself, "I mean, I'm his pregneat fiance! What's a man to do, let her sit there as she deals with everything? Yeah, right!" She got up from a kitchen chair and walked toward the fridge. She opened the door and stuck her head in, a good ammount of "clanks" were heard and she moved stuff inside. She then pulled an item out, wrapped up in paper.
Sakura set it on the table, grabbed a fork and a knife, and removed the paper to reveal a huge chocolate cake, covered in frosting and sprinkles!
"Dig in!" She smiled greatly
Step 4: Stealth
It was the end of the day. Naruto was on his way home, with a filled wallet. He knew that this will help the costs for when the child's born, and he could easily say he was excited
"This is great! Just wait until when Sakura hears about this!" He exclaimed, until he suddenly lost his good mood, "Aw, dammit . . . Sakura . . ." He banged the door to his house
"Hmm? What was that noise?" Sakura's voice came on
"Oh, crud!" Naruto backed away. When Sakura opened the door, she saw nothing
"Must've been the wind" She shrugged and walked back inside, leaving the door open. Naruto then dropped down- from the roof!
Perfect! She left it open! Naruto grinned as he slipped inside. He slowly made his way inside until a voice suddenly peirced his ears
"Good afternoon, Naruto!" Sakura put her hands on her hips. Naruto knew his "stealth" was broken
Step 5: Rest
"Why, hello, there, Sakura!" Naruto gave an innocent wave
"Hello there, Naruto!" She took a step forward, Naruto took a step back, "You know you have a bunch of work to do!"
"Er," Naruto looked away into the kitchen, "I do! But first, how's about I do something nice for my wife and make her something to eat!" He dashed into the kitchen and then stopped. Sakura made her way in, grinning, and a hand on her growing stomach
"It's okay, Naruto! I already ate!"
"You . . . ate my . . . chocolate cake . . . I spent . . . so much money on . . ." Naruto's eyes clsoed and he dropped to the floor
In just a few minutes, Sakura was carrying Naruto up the stairs in her arms. She threw him on the bed, "I swear you're over react too much. Sometimes I think you just try and avoid me!"
