Author's notes: I've been thinking about this chapter for a while, now I can write it!
Disclaimer: Don't….even…bother…….asking!
(Sasuke's POV)
Suzuki is now eight months, any day now she will be able to say her first words. Sakura and I have already started asking her if she can say Oto-san or Oka-chan, or any other words. Suzuki and I have a great bond, every night I put her to sleep. I hold her in my arms and play gentle music in the back round. I can't wait until she's older, I'll be able to teach her jitsu's and become a excellent kunoichi. Everyday I take her to the place where I purposed to Sakura, a cherry blossom tree. That cherry blossom tree has bee there longer than I've been alive. When I was younger my mother told me that that's where my father purposed to her, when I asked Sakura to marry me I asked her here, under this tree.
Now I take Suzuki here, maybe one day she'll be purposed to here. I don't really like to think about her when it comes to boys. I don't want anyone to take her away from me. Suzuki pulled on my hair, taking me back to reality. "Ow Suzuki let go of my hair." I complained. She just laughed and Sakura giggled. She and I took Suzuki to this tree together. Suzuki pulled harder on my hair, "Ow." I winced. "She has such a strong grip." "She likes pulling your hair but not mine." Sakura teased. "Not funny and not fair." I grinned. Suzuki released her grip on my hair and pointed at the cherry blossom tree coming ahead of us.
When we reached the tree we sat on the bench under it. We also put a blanket on ground for Suzuki to sit on and play with her toys. I sat on the ground with Suzuki on my lap. She played with my headband, I removed it from my from my forehead and gave it to her. She observed it carefully and then smacked me with it. "Ow. That hurt." I said rubbing my cheek that was glowing red. Suzuki laughed very hard, I love her laugh. It's like music to me, the most beautiful kind. Her laugh always made me smile. I know it did for Sakura too. Suzuki looked at me with a smile, "Suzuki, can you say Oto-san?" I asked. Suzuki looked at me and opened her mouth to say something, "O-Ot-Oto-Oto s-Oto-san." She said slowly. I beamed with happiness. "Can you say it again?" I asked "Oto-san." She repeated, this time less confused and more clearly. "She did it!" I said lifting her up and raising her over my head. "She said her first word!" Sakura said cheerfully and proudly. Her first word, Oto-san, father.
I know that she'll be calling me that a lot now. "Oto-san." She said and tugged on my shirt. What's amazing is that she knows that I am Oyo-san. "What's wrong Suzuki?" I asked. She mumbled a few slurred words that I can't understand. I laughed as she touched my cheek gently. Her soft skin against mine felt wonderful, she's so small and fragile. I kissed her cheek and her cheeks flushed red. She laid her head on my chest and played with the ends of my hair.
She is my priority, my life. I don't know what I'll do if she ever dies. I don't even want to think about it. I know that I'll lose my mind. Suzuki and Sakura saved me from the pain of being alone, I love them both. I started thinking about how my life would be like if Suzuki and Sakura weren't in it, when Sakura looked at me curiously. "Sasuke-kun?" she asked. "Hm, yes?" I asked, snapping back to reality. "I love you, you're such a great father." She said. I felt Suzuki stop playing with my hair and noticed she was asleep. "She fell asleep again." I said. Sakura chuckled and pushed Suzuki's hair out of her face. "She's so beautiful, and you both are my life." I said. Sakura smiled and I grabbed her hand with my free one.
When we got home it was already night, I put Suzuki in her crib and kissed her on the cheek gently. I looked at Suzuki; she was so peaceful when she slept. I watched her chest rise and fall every time she took a breath. I saw how her cheek was against her arm. She had chubby cheeks, which Sakura and I loved to kiss. Her creamy skin texture glowed in the moonlight coming from the window in her room. I can't help but just look at her beauty. It's hard to believe that someone this beautiful came form me and Sakura. It's hard to believe that the two of us could create such a beautiful being. I'm still truly amazed about how two people could create a beautiful child.
I slid Suzuki's door closed and walked to my bedroom where Sakura was. She was laying on her side, supposedly asleep. I went over to the bed and sat next to her, she was asleep. Like Sakura, I can see some of Suzuki's feature's. Sakura opened her eyes and looked at me. "Is she asleep?" she asked. I nodded for a yes. Sakura sat up and rested her head on my chest and I wrapped my arms around her waist. "Thank you Sasuke." She whispered. "For what?" I asked. "For being a great father. Most jounins focus more on their missions then their children." She explained. "The day you told me you were pregnant I promised that I would be there for you and for Suzuki. And on the day she was born I said I would be a good father, I'm never going to break those promises." I said. "I know, and I'm very grateful that you are. I'm so happy, you've made me feel like the luckiest wife and mother on earth." She said. I turned her over to her back and pressed my forehead on hers. "I'm glad, this is a whole lot better than making you sad. Like when we were younger." I said softly. "That was a long time ago. Now, this is important, we're together and we have a child together, that's all that matters." She said. "I love you Sakura." I said and kissed her passionately. She deepened the kiss, I put my hands on her waist. She put her arms around my neck and played with the hair at the nape of my neck.
Right when I put my face on the crook of her neck and started kissing it, we heard Suzuki crying. I sighed and so did she, "Well, maybe later. I'll go get her." Sakura said. I removed myself from atop of her and let her leave the room to get Suzuki. When she left I sighed, there was one thing that always bothered me, Suzuki's crying. Not only for this reason, but whenever she cries I feel uncomfortable because I know I might've done something wrong or because she's uncomfortable. But I know once she gets older she won't cry in the middle of the night anymore. Until then, Sakura and I will have to deal with it.
