DISCLAIMER: I don't own it.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: It took me a while... but I finally got an update out. I wanted to do a little NaruHina this time... but it's still connected to the story... and... well.. it's... angst!! SasuSaku angst though... the Naruhina here is happy (somehow I don't think angst goes with Naruhina). Oh, and thanks to everyone who reviewed.. I really really appreciate your reviews..


NAME


"Damn it."

"Na-naruto-kun, don't say bad words in front of the baby!"

"Ah… gomen Hinata-chan… but he bit me… and…"

"No buts, Naruto-kun, here, let me hold him for a while."

"…"

"…"

"You're really good with kids, Hinata-chan."

"R-really?"

"Yeah, I wish my own children would have a mom like you someday."

"N-naruto-kun…"

"…"

"But hey, I think I'd better go check on Sasuke. You know how he is, he probably drunk himself to oblivion again."

"A-are you going t-to try to get him to accept the baby again?"

"No, not this time. Maybe next week. But for the meantime, can you take care of Baby… erm… baby Itachi…"

"I-I don't think it was a g-good idea t-to let Sasuke-san name his baby."

"He's the father. It's his right to name him. But maybe I shouldn't have asked him while he was drunk."

"Y-yeah."

"But Sasuke hasn't been sober ever since… ever since… you know… and I couldn't let the baby remain nameless for a long time. Besides, I don't think the name Uchiha Ramen sounds good. heheh..."

"You have a p-point."

"…"

"…

"Neh, Hinata-chan, I'll be going now. The teme probably needs my help. Thanks for coming over and helping me take care of the baby."

"N-no problem. I-it's my pleasure, N-naruto-kun. I like taking care of Baby Itachi, he's such a sweet child."

"Nu-uh, he bit me. He's not sweet at all. If I didn't know better I'd say he takes after..."

"Not Itachi."

"N-no! I was gonna say that he takes after the teme!"

"O-oh… gomen."

"Nah, it's okay."

"…"

"Well, Hinata-chan, bye, and thanks again."

"Bye Naruto-kun."
