Chapter Three
Itachi and Yuko began to make their way to a near by town. Yuko had no stopped wondering about the question Itachi tried to ask her. She was deeply confused and she'd give anything to know what was on in the Uchiha's head.
"Yuko." Spoke the Uchiha calmly without a change in expression or tone. "Is something on your mind?"
Yuko looked away with a blush. "Me? Of course not Itachi." She lied to him and it made her sick inside. She never imagined herself lying to the Uchiha for any reason what so ever.
"You have always been a playful person. You're a female version of the Uzumaki boy. You may seem different in most things but there are in fact things that the two of you have in common. The liking of ramen, the determination to have a normal life, and a love for an Uchiha. I would say that you are in fact the most perfect person to be with me." He moved her in his arms and embarrassed her deeply. "I will give up being an Akasuki if it means having you with me. I am willing to give up on killing Sasuke to just be with you."
She gave a smile, a gentle smile filled with love and light. That smile was brought on by Itachi's love and his will to her as his and only his. "Itachi, will you ever change?" She began to giggle with happiness.
Itachi raised her head and looked at her dark Sapphire eyes. "Be my woman Yuko, belong to only me."
Her eyes grew wide to his request. She had never believed that the Uchiha, the first born Uchiha would ask her this. She was indeed madly in love with him, but she always thought the Uchiha had a family else where waiting for him. "Itachi . . . What do you mean by your woman? DO you mean whore?"
"I mean bride, wife, soul-mate, whatever good you may think. I want you to be with me forever so that both of us wont have to endure the pain of the past." He held her closer and kissed her lips slowly. He thought of Yuko as glass, a fragile piece of material that was made to stay pure and loved. He looked at her with determined eyes, his real eyes, not the sharingan or the second stage of it, but his real black eyes. "Will you be mine?"
Tears began to drift from her eyes down to her cheeks. "What a stupid question Itachi, you already know the answer." She dug her face in his shirt as she cried more. "I want to be with you Itachi, I want to have your children and raise them together. I want to tell you what's on my mind and I want you to tell me what's on yours. I know i'm not super strong or even smart as you and other people i've met, but I just want to make you happy."
"That's all I could ever want from you, Yuko." He smiled at her. He began to pet her head slowly and gently with love. He knew that now that the woman he loved so much, was now his. "I want us to be together, I dont want Sasuke's eyes, or the power any longer. Naruto can keep his spirit, Sasuke can keep his life."
"What will you keep Tachi-kun?" She asked innocently. (A/N: Yuko calls Itachi, Tachi-kun, most of the time when she's in her normal mode and feeling good. She knows he like it too so he doesn't complain :p He loves her!)
"I will keep Yuko." He let her go and saw her hold his hand. "Yuko will remain with Itachi, there is nothing else i could want form you."
They began to walk, trying to find for a place to where they can have for their own.
"The hidden village." Spoke Yuko to break the silence between her and Itachi. "Will that suit as our home?"
"Perhaps you and your mother can work something out." He said calmly.
"I refuse to speak with someone who has never been there for me. I could care less that she is Hokage of the hidden leaf. She should have taken me with her when she had me. She had no right to leave me and make me suffer the way she did. I despise her more than my brother." Yuko in fact hated Tsunade for leaving her in the care of Orochimaru. She had come to accept that her father was a monster but that didn't mean she was one too. The last thing she wanted to do now is beg Tsunade to let Itachi return to the village, but if it meant Itachi and her being happy, she would do this one thing. "I'll try to convince her Itachi."
"That's like the Yuko i know and love."
They began to head for the hidden leaf village.

After a few hours, the couple stopped to take a rest from the long walk. They decided to rest at a hotel for the night so that they can regain strength for the long walk for tomorrow.
Yuko slammed herself on the nice soft bed and sighed with relief. "Finally, a bed to sleep in." She laughed happily as Itachi took of his Akasuki robe and threw it on the floor as if it were a piece of trash. "Why are you throwing it away?"
"I have no need for it anymore. I no longer belong to the Akasuki. I have decided to spend my life devoted to you and the family soon to come." He walked to her and kissed her on the lips. "I need nothing else."
She smiled and moved back. "I'm happy because of you Tachi-kun, I cant ask for more."
Itachi sat beside her. "I think it's time of you and me to change the way we once were. I will become more open with my feels and you will rejoin with your mother."
She gave a nod, she knew this had to be done if they wanted to start over in life. "But I want to know something first, I want to know the truth. About what really happened to the Uchiha clan all those years ago."
He looked at her calmly, he knew this was the one thing he wanted to keep from everyone. "I suppose you are the only person who realized that I didn't kill the clan for power but for protection." He looked at the rising moon. "My father, my family, they were planning to take over the leaf village. They were slowly plotting a way they could take over it and become its soul ruler. When I came in touch with this information I decided to take this on my won. I was still uncertain on the day but I resolved it from the friend I killed. The night I killed the family, I made sure Sasuke was no where to be sighted, he would never understand that the family was really against the village he grew up in. Although not everyone was involved with that mission, I had to make sure no one would think of the wrong thing and start a war against us. My mother and aunt had to die so that the greater good could occur."
"But why didnt you tell Sasuke the truth? He has the right to know now, he wont have to kill you now." She replied.
"The only proof I have is the scrolls that my father had. I hid them all in the house under the mat in my old room. I suppose it is still there, if i was to show Sasuke and the Hokage, then the chance of my return should be solid." He told her honestly. He smiled at her and touched her cheek with love and care. "I want us to be happy to."
"Tachi-kun, would you be mad if I did something for Sasuke?" She asked.
"Sasuke, I want to give you this potion before you go." Yuko handed a small bottle to Sasuke. "If you want to have children with Naruto, just drink this and it should be easy from now on. The nine tailed fox should take care of the rest for you two." She gave a warm smile.
Sasuke smiled at her. "You are too kind to me Yuko, if you ever decide to return to Konoha, dont stop to visit me at my house. You're welcome to stay and even live, it's because of you that I will be able to have a child with Naruto. So i want to thank you." He hugged her and then left.
Yuko looked down. "I made a potion for your brother to take if he wished to make Naruto pregnant with his child. I only wished to make Sasuke happy in life, nothing else."
He sighed with the thought. "To see that hyperactive child pregnant."
"Are you upset with me Tachi-kun?" She asked worried. "You can hit me if you'd like."
"I will never place a hand on your face Yuko. Unless it is the only way, i will not touch that face of yours." He leaned to her and kissed her again. "But i'd like to sleep with my woman if you dont mind." (A/N: I only write lemons for SasuNaru moments, I dont like to do it for Itachi and Yuko, seems too corny, so complain to someone else if you dont approve.)
XxX
The next morning came, Yuko began to wake up from her sleep.
"Huh?" She opened her eyes a bit and winced at the light of the sun. She suddenly realized that she was naked in Itachi's arms. Her face turned a deep red filled with shyness and embarrassment. "Itachi and me . . . we did . . ." She quickly covered her face. "Oh my goodness, did we really . . . make love?" She thought as she fought in her head. "Oh wow, I thought it was a dream or something." She tried to sit up but a sharp pain went through her body. "Ouch, ow ow ow ow ow!"
Itachi suddenly woke up. "Yuko?"
She looked at him and deepened her blushed. (if it was possible) She looked away with shame. "I think i'm sore."
He sat up and saw her try to cover herself with the sheets. "Why are you ashamed? I think you look very beautiful Yuko. I have you all to myself." He began to kiss her.
She put her arms around him and made the kiss more interesting. She smiled happily, not caring about the pain or anything else. "Tachi-kun, we have to get going okay?"
"Wait a bit longer Yuko, there is no rush." He said. Itachi only wanted to keep Yuko in his arms forever, never letting her go or anything. He was madly in love with the girl, he would risk it all for her. He left the Akasuki for her, she left the sound of him. Both left their home to be with one another. Now the only place they can go is the safety of the village of Konaha, they both knew it was their only home still together in peace.
After a few minues, the couple got changed and made their way towards the village hidden in the leaves.
Yuko was scared to see the home she never knew. She only knew the things Itachi had told her but never about the people and the things inside. It had been days since they started traveling to the village, Yuko was beginning to feel nauseous in her stomach. She stopped walking and stood there holding her stomach. "What is this pain?"
"Yuko?" Itachi turned around and saw her standing there with her face turning yellow. "Is something wrong?"
She suddenly ran to a near by bush and began to throw up all the food in her stomach. She felt Itachi's hand on her back soothing her from the experince. She was beginning to think something was wrong until Itachi spoke up.
"Dont worry Yuko, it will pass in a few weeks. It's normal to vomit like this when pregnant." He said calmly. His voice seemed different thought, as if filled with more meaning and life. Itachi was in fact feeling more emotions and now with what he just informed Yuko with, he seemed happy.
She smiled at him. "A baby Tachi-kun? You and me?"
"That's right Yuko, this is our family start." He helped her up from the ground. "I'll take care of the both of you, we'll reach the village very soon."
She smiled and hugged his arm like a school girl. She couldnt be happier, all she wanted was to be with Itachi and now she was gonna make a family with him.

Ok, i think it ended kinda well. Itachi and Yuko have happiness and someone to add to their family. Next time, Naruto and Yuko meet face to face while the Uchiha brothers talk things out. Tsunade meets Yuko again after eighteen years and she tried to fix things.
