--Chapter Five: Sloth--
laziness; idleness ~
The bright sunlight was finally shining through the Uchiha Compound. In one particular bedroom—that of the Uchiha couple to be exact—was at peace. A raven-haired man and a blonde woman slept soundly and calmly. That was not going to last long.
"Momma! Poppa! Wake up!" Two tykes come charging through the door. They threw themselves at the mattress and began jumping with a hyperness that surpassed that of Naruto Uzumaki.
"Kiyoshi and Naomi Uchiha. Stop jumping this instant!" The former Ino Yamanaka yelled. It had been a tiresome week. It was Ino's responsibility to tend both the flowershop and the house, take care of business as Head of Interrogation, and then there were the occasional hospital shifts. Being that it was her day off, she wanted to stay in bed and sleep.
"But, Mom." The boy named Kiyoshi whined. "I'm hungry."
"Daddy! Wake up." Naomi insisted as she climbed on top of Sasuke's back. She curiously opened the Uchiha's eyelids, trying desperately to wake her father from his slumber.
"Hn." Sasuke grunted. Like Ino, he had experienced a tiresome week. As Captain of the ANBU Black ps, he was always doing some sort of classified mission. They had finally given him the day off, and he was going to take advantage of that.
"Yeah, Momma. Please wake up!" Kiyoshi said as he lied down so Ino's face was in front of his. The Uchiha Lasy fluttered her blue eyes open and was rewarded by seeing a pair of equally frosty blue eyes. Kiyoshi's raven hair was just as wild as Sasuke's. This made Ino laugh.
"Fine. I'm up." Ino sighed in defeat. She gently touched her son's nose and rose up. She turned to see her blonde daughter still trying to get her father to wake up. Lifting the girl off of Sasuke, Ino embraced Naomi. Her eyes were just as enigmatic as Sasuke's.
"Daddy won't wake up." The blonde princess pouted. Ino smiled at the gesture.
"He's being lazy, that's all. Hold up a sec." Ino set Naomi next to Kiyoshi. She slowly leaned over Sasuke's body. Her lips were seconds from his ear. "Wake up, Sasuke!"
At the sound of his wife's loud voice, Sasuke's bolted right up. "What?"
Ino merely rolled her eyes ar the death glare Sasuke was gving her. Honestly, after ten years of being married, she's think he would know the "glare: produced an effect on her. Ino simply pulled on the bag of her eye and stuck out her tongue. Kiyoshi and Naomi began to giggle.
"Fine. I'm up." Sasuke grunted.
"Good." Ino responded before giving her husband a gentle kiss on the lips. That received a smirk from the ex-avenger.
"Eww…" The children scrunched their faces before running off to fins their older sibilings: Takeru and Hikari. These two were known as he power twins of the Uchiha clan and of Konoha. The boy—Takeru—was the spitting image of Sasuke, while the girl—Hikari—was the spitting image of Ino. They were the nest ninja in their age group.
"Hn." Sasuke uttered as he watched his children runn. He looked at Ino and kissed her again. He then lied himself down, his hands behind the back of his head.
"Oh, no. It's time to wake up, Uchiha." Ino got out of bed and crossed her arms.
"I don't want to. Let's stay in bed. Just you and me." Sasuke winked in a manner that still made Ino want to melt. But over the years, she had grown to learn how to overcome that feeling.
"And what do you suggest we do with the children?"
"Oh." She had him there. Their nine-year-old twins could pretty much handle themselves, but then there was their five-year-old boy and two-year-old girl. If only someone could help them through this rut.
Suddenly, they heard a knock come from the door. The couple walked out the bedroom. To their surprise, Takeru had opened the door before Ino and Sasuke arrived to the living room. It was none other than their best friends: Sakura and Naruto Uzumaki.
Naruto had two-year-old Naomi in his arms whole he looked up and saw the couple. "Still in your pajamas, I see."
"Naruto. Don't be so rude. Hey, Sasuke. Hey, Pig." Sakura smiled towards her best friend. Her emerald eyes shining with merriment.
"Hey, Forehead." Ino yawned. "So, what brings the great Hokage and his wife to our household?"
"Well, Sakura and I just wanted to see if we could hang out with the kids for a while. Take them off your hands for a while." Naruto's bright smile got wider. He could see Sasuke's eyes brighten up. "Our kids are waiting for them in the car."
"Do you guys want to go with Naruto and Sakura?" Sasuke inquired. All four children quickly shouted yes. The Uchiha laughed before giving them the signal that they could go.
"Bring them home be ten, Naruto." Ino stated as she inched closer to embrace Sakura. One by one, the children came from their bedroom fully dressed and prepared for a day with the Uzumakis. The platinum blonde kissed her children before they ran to meet the Uzumaki kids.
"I will." Naruto ran off to catch with the kids.
"Bye, Sasuke. Bye, Ino. We'll bring your kids home softly. Have a nice say." The former haruno winked before shutting the door behind her,
Sasuke and Ino then turned towards each other. The house was inexplicitly clean. After all, the children had just woken up and had not had the time to make a mess. The children were gone, meaning that it was quit and they had the house to themselves.
"How about you and I go upstairs, Mrs. Uchiha?" Sasuke said as he pulled Ino closer to him and into a deep passionate kiss.
"And here I thought I was the mind reader."
"So you reading what I'm thinking?"
"A-huh." Ino nodded before running to their bedroom, Sasuke trailing not that far behind her.
The couple crawled under the covers. Sasuke held onto Ino and began to kiss her all over. The two continues to kiss with such an ardent fever that they didn't leave each other's side for an instant. By the time Sakura and Naruto came to drop off the children, the couple was fast asleep in each other's arms. They had not left the room all day.
