Alright! I know it took me a while to get this one up, but there were spelling and grammar mistakes like you have no idea. It's nice to know that I've improved over the years! Also I've been busy, life got in the way.

But above all the reason I haven't updated is because I got a review from someone telling me that my story was like someone else's, and I felt terrible, and I took the time to read through the whole thing and compared it to what I have and found out it was true. I seriously considered taking this whole thing down ow simply discontinuing it, but I just couldn't.

I mean this is a story about something that really did happen to me a couple of years ago. I have my daughter to prove to it! Though I'm portraying my own baby daddy to be... much better in this fic than in reality -I wan't in the mood to upload a Dark fic at the moment. And also I'm pretty frigging sure i'm going to rewrite my ending to turn this into a ItaSaku fic, because I didn't end up with my baby daddy, and I sure as hell don't want Sakura too either, besides, I think Itachi can be easier to cure and turn good than Sasuke, he'll always be a dick.


Sakura woke up with a groan and went about her daily morning activities, or at least she tried, but she was simply too tired to do anything today. Then it stuck her, it was her day off. Thank Gods! She thought. This means I get a few extra minutes of R&R…. she thought with a smile as she relaxed further into the warm bath water….

"Sakura! Are you alright in there? You didn't go and down yourself in there did you?" an annoying female voice shouted over the continuous pounding on her bathroom door.

"Ino what the fuck do you want?" Sakura whined, not liking being startled awake, though she wondered what would have happened is she had not. "Probably would have drowned in the bathtub..." she grumbled as she pulled out of the, now cool, bathwater and wrapped a bath towel around her body, her stomach already bulging out from beneath the fabric.

She smiled and caressed it over the cloth. She was currently four months pregnant, and to be quite truthful, up till two days ago, she wasn't showing as much, she just suddenly 'Popped' as many said. There would be no doubt that she was pregnant now if anyone were to see her.

It also meant that nothing fit her anymore and she had to resort to using large and warm fitting clothing, for it was the middle of November and it was getting quite cold. She sighed and slipped on her slippers and went back to her bedroom.

"Fucking shit Ino, close the fucking window! It's freezing in here!" the pinkette snapped as she made a mad dash to her bed to hide under her covers.

"Suck it up Sakura, I only opened it an inch, it smells like a box inside here, the air doesn't have room for way to properly circulate, I'll close it once the smell of trapped mouse leaves the house." She promised. "And what the heck are you doing?" she asked.

"What does it look like you stupid bitch, I'm cold and I'm trying to keep warm." Sakura snapped.

Ino rolled her eyes. "Good luck with staying warm once you dampen up all the covers, you'll only have to get out of there and get dressed and it will be colder by then." She informed as she leaned against the door of Sakura's closet.

"You know something Ino?" Sakura said as she pulled the covers away from her face and crawled out of bed. "If I had a dick I would so tell you to suck on it." She said.

"And I would gladly do so, so long as it got you in a better mood, you need a good fuck, how long has it been now, 9 months?" she asked an had the pleasure to see the pinkette's eyes widen in horror.

"I'm only 4 months pregnant you fat butt ugly blonde whore!" she shouted as she hit her in the face with a pillow.

"Ow!" Ino yelped and then chuckled. "You sure about that, because the way I'm looking at you right now shows you to be further along than that, or is there something you forgot to tell us, are you having twins?" she asked

"Ha ha, very funny Pig." She rolled her eyes as she flicked her best friend off. "What the hell are you doing here anyway?" she asked as she fished her closet for something warm, loose and comfortable to wear.

"I was coming back from a quick mission and guess who I happened across while dropping down my mission report." She said.

"I don't know." Sakura shrugged as she donned a pair of black sweatpants and a pair of thick socks. "Who?" she asked as she pulled a thermal shirt over her shoulders.

"No one other than your baby daddy." She informed. "What are you doing?" she asked.

"The stupid shirt doesn't fit me right anymore, won't cover my whole stomach." She complained as she tossed the shirt back into the closet, but Ino was quick and snatched it in her hands before it hit the floor.

"You have no sense of fashion." She rolled her eyes. "Put it back on, but put your arm in the neck hole." She instructed.

"The neck hole? But it will stretch it and I want to be able to use it again when I get my figure back." She complained. Ino looked at her with annoyed eyes. "Just do it will you?"

Sakura huffed. "Fine." She said and pulled the shirt over her shoulders once more and inserted both her head and arms thought eh neck slot and was left with the shirt snuggling below her arms, the sleeves dangling at her sides. "Now what?"

Ino stepped closer to her and took the sleeves in her hands and tucked some of it into Sakura's bra to keep it in its place before she tied the two sleeves together and did a double knot and left the sleeves dangling at her chest.

"There, now you can keep warm, look fashionable, and cover your stomach." She said. "And if no one is checking you out they might not even notice that you're pregnant, they will definitely tell that your boobs gained two extra cups, but that's just an added bonus to the way I styled the sleeves, you still have the chest of a twelve year old." She teased.

"Well I haven't had anyone complain about by breast before." She said. "And what's so important about Sasuke being at the Mission Office is so important that you felt you had to tell me?" she asked

"He and Naruto got assigned an A-Class Mission, and while I think Sasuke should be able to handle it, I'm not completely sure Naruto will be able to do the same." She said.

"You under estimate him, don't do that, he'll only end up surprising you." Sakura smiled. "When does he leave?" she asked, feeling slightly worried.

"He already left, he made sure to look for me and the girls before he left to make sure we looked after you and the baby." She informed with a smile. Sakura smiled as well. "God bless Naruto, that boy is an angel disguised as a pain in the ass." She chuckled.

"He means well, he's just a little stupid when he tries to show he cares, and ends up crashing and burning himself." Ino shrugged. "So what do you want to do?" she asked.

Sakura thought about it for a moment. "So both him and Sasuke left already?" she asked biting her lip.

"Yeah I practically walked with them to the Village Exit, why?" she asked.

Sakura's smile broadened. "Because I want to change into something warm that wont make me feel like a looser and look twice as fat as I am, make me look sexy and get to walk around the whole village enjoying my Sasuke free envior-"

"Bitch you made me dress you up for nothing?" Ino snapped.

"No one asked you to play dress up, I was going to toss it back in the closet but you insisted." She reminded. Ino could only glare at the pink haired Kunoichi as she changed into a loose fitting tank and a jacket.

"Come on let's go, I don't want to waste a single moment, I don't know how long I won't have to worry about him seeing me." She said and with a roll of her eyes the blonde followed her best friend out the front door.


Sakura looked up from her clipboard as a rush of medics brought in two injured bodies. A Blonde and a raven haired... No.

Her heart seemed to have skipped several beats, and there was a faint ringing in her ears when her heart started back up again. She moved forward to assist the team bringing both Ninjas in but a strong hand pulled her back.

"Where do you think you're going?" Tsunade questioned.

"What do you mean? I'm going to help my friends!" she told her as she tried to pry her arm away. tears were already welling up in her eyes. Wrenched Hormones!

"Let the others Take care of them." she instructed.

Sakura's face dropped and with grate effort she freed her arm and turned to glare at the Blonde woman before her. "I can't leave them alone, did you see how they looked? They could die without the proper medical assistance!" she snapped.

"Ad you believe you would be able to deliver such treatment?" the Hokage rose a brow.

Sakura's eyes narrowed. "Of course I can, what are you implying?" she demanded.

"I'm merely informing you that you are not to return to this hospital till Uzumaki and Uchiha Sasuke have been relieved from their stay here." she said.

"And why is that?"

"Because you're Hormonal, and those to men have a special sort of bond with you." she began. "Add to that that I specifically told you no stress, and this is exactly what being near them and having you attending to them will bring." she added.

Sakura frowned, sure she might be right but-

"That and I'm your superior, the one that sings your checks and I'm the Hokage, so what i say goes, do I make myself clear?" she demanded.

"Crystal Fucking Clear." Sakura said before slamming her clipboard on the floor and storming out of the hospital.

She felt she couldn't breathe properly for a month after that.

Until she got the call from Tsunade telling her that Naruto and Sasuke had already been released from the hospital that morning.

Tsunade received no reply from the Medi-Nin. All she head was the land line clattering to the floor and a door being slammed.


"I'm fine Sakura." Naruto whined as he swatted her hands away. "Oh-ho."

Sakura narrowed her eyes and whacked him upside the head. "Asshole, I was only trying to be helpful." she said angrily, but a few tears tickled in her eyes. "Fuck! See what you did, you went and got me all emotional." she said as she rubbed her eyes.

Naruto frowned. "I'm sorry." he said sheepishly. Sakura sniffled and then composed herself. "Not our fault, I'm been a teary mess these last two months." she admitted.

"Ah, the mood swing stage finally kicked in huh?" Naruta guessed.

"Yes and it's horrible, almost everything gets me upset now, yesterday I cut my finger whilst I was cutting some potatoes and after I nearly destroyed the kitchen in a fit of rage I cried for half an hour because everything was a mess."

"Sounds intense." Naruto commented. "You have no idea." she said. "And the fact that you and Sasuke were in the hospital for almost a whole month did nothing to help."

"Speaking of Sasuke, are you sure you don't want to tell him anything of what's going on?" he asked. "I mean, you said you would lie if he ever found out about you being pregnant, but don't you think he should know that-"

"No." Sakura said tersely. Naruto frowned. "But don't you think there are certain things he needs to know, like the fact that his-"

"I said No, Naruto." Sakura snapped. "It's safer this way, both for him, me and my baby." she sighed. "Ignorance is Bliss isn't it? So I'll give him the bliss of being ignorant to the things that are happening, the less he knows the better." she said, making it clear that the conversation was done with.

She put a lot of effort into standing from the floor and straightened out her shirt, which just barely covered up her bloating stomach. Five and a half months and counting, the changes pregnancy was having on he body clearly evident. Her face was slightly more rounded, her hair, though it was brighter it was also in less quantities. She now constantly held the look of a tired little girl who's constantly getting into trouble.

Her body was rounder and one could now tell she was pregnant even if she was spotted from behind. Naruto frowned. "You can't hide it forever, Sakura. He's going to notice soon, it's not like you can keep hiding under your winter clothing much longer, anyone can tell you're pregnant now." he pointed out.

"Then I'l just have to continue avoiding him." she said disdainfully. "Besides, we've passed each other on the streets before, and I was able to get him angry enough for him to completely disregard me and not notice a thing."

"What do you think is going to happen when you guys actually have a long and not so discreet encounter? And what if he looses his temper like last time and goes at you, how will you stop him from noticing, much less hurting the both of you then?" he demanded.

Sakura sealed her lips tightly and wrapped her arms protectively around her stomach. "I won't let that happen again." she promised, but her voice trembled.

Naruto stepped towards her and placed his hands on her shoulders, which only caused the pinkette to break down in a mess of tears. Naruto quickly wrapped his arms around her and held on to her tightly. "No Sakura don't cry, please.." he whispered desperately. "Look, I'll stop pressuring you okay, just please, stop crying." he pleaded

Sakura pushed him away. "Stop it just stop it okay!" she snapped.

"But Sakura, I -"

"I said Stop it Naruto, what does it matter to you if I tell him, huh?" she demanded.

"He's my best friend Sakura! He's you're best friend too! Stop being so fucking selfish all the time!" he snapped, and Sakura was taken back.

"Selfish? You think I'm-"

"Yes, that's exactly what you are! You only think about you! You didn't tell Sasuke you were pregnant, not because you thought it was best for the baby, but because it was what was best for you!" He shouted at her. "And that's also the reason you won't tell him that his brother is back in town and you're terrified of him finding out your pregnant." He accused.

"It's not that simple Naruto, and you know it." she said in a trembling voice.

"Then explain it to me, because I sure as fucking hell don't understand." he deadpanned.

"Itachi would kill Me, the baby and Sasuke if he found out the truth." she informed. "Sasuke would be dead set on believing the baby was Itachi's and wouldn't give a fuck about what happens to us."

"Are you implying that Sasuke doesn't care?" Naruto accused with hi arms crossed.

"That's exactly what I'm saying." Sakura confirmed.

"Sakura, how can you even say such a thing, you're having his baby, I'm sure that if-"

"It's not his Naruto, she's mine, and mine alone."

"She? You mean," Sakura nodded. "I found out while you were hospitalized." She said.

Naruto sighed. "Sakura this is all the more reason to tell him!" he groaned.

"I told you already Naruto, he won't care! And even if he did it would probably only be because he wants to restore that fucking clan of his, not because he cares about me or my baby." she stated.

Naruto shouted in frustration, causing Sakura to flinch back. "Sakura, why do you have to be so fucking difficult!" he snapped and headed to the door.

"Where the fuck do you think you're going!?" the Pinkette demanded.

"I'm leaving, I can't stand you right now, but hear me when I say Sakura, that if you don't get your head out of your ass, and tell Sasuke the truth, I'll tell him for you." he warned and slammed the door behind him. "Don't fucking threaten me Uzumaki!" she shouted at the closed door.

"Ah!" Sakura yelled in frustration and threw a glass at the door, causing it to shatter to pieces. "I hate you!" she cried and slid to the floor in a sobbing mess.

"When did things get so confusing?" she asked herself.


Shouts and Shattering Glass.

That's what could be heard coming from the apartment Haruno was living at. The Raven haired Uchiha rolled his eyes. Even from three blocks away he could hear them, though he didn't pay any attention to what about.

It didn't surprise him that the woman was picking a fight with Naruto, those two seemed like a married couple with all the arguing they did. Were it not for the simple fact that the bothersome blonde was in an ongoing stable relationship with the Hyuga Heiress, Sasuke would have thought those two really were married.

He saw the knucklehead leave the apartment, kicking the door open and then slamming it shut, punching the door in frustration. "Stupid selfish bitch!" he cursed. From a distance Sasuke rose a brow, amused.

"She's only going to get the two of them killed if she keeps this charade up. She better tell him the truth before I do so, or worse, Itachi beats her to the punch." he growled as he leaned against the door. Sasuke froze.

Naruto punched the door once more before walking away. Sasuke remained behind.

Had he heard right? Itachi. His brother Itachi, Member of the Akatsuki Itachi, the man who murdered his whole clan, Itachi. Was after Sakura?

Why?

The raven haired man balled his hands up into fists, so tightly his knuckles were bone white against the skin and he trembled with rage. How could they keep this from him?

He intended to figure it out. He walked to the entrance to her house and walked in.


Sakura wiped the tears from her eyes. "Fucking asshole, who does he think he is, shouting at me like that." she muttered, sniffling.

Inside her, her daughter moved around, and it hurt. Not the normal way it hurt when ever the baby moved around and Sakura rubbed her stomach as she dubbed over a bit. "Fuck… that hurts." She whimpered.


Sasuke stopped at her door. Contemplating on weather he should knock and ask politely to be let in or just walk in through the door. He decided to first see if the door was locked, if it was he would ask to come in, or trick er into letting him in, if it wasn't he would walk in.

It was unlocked.

He didn't know why it made him so upset. Maybe because Itachi was in he village and after her and she wasn't even bothering to lock the doors. Or maybe it just meant that something was wrong with her.

Fuck that shit, I'm going in. he thought bitterly as he gripped the door handle, and his resolve to stop himself before walking in on her was broken when he heard her groan and then whimper.

She was dubbing over the sofa, her knees bent and she was slowly touching the hard wooden floor. She whimpered again and very nearly collapsed, but Sasuke closed the distance between them and held her up.

As soon as Sakura was back to a erect standing position she was instantly feeling better. "I'm alright, the baby was probably just repositioning herself." She informed and took in a deep breath.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed at her form. Baby? His grip over her arm tightened painfully, causing Sakura to snap her gaze at him as a hiss escaped her lips. "Sasuke…." She gasped as she completely froze in her spot.

Over the years Sakura has tought herself to not be frightnend by simple things. But to have Sasuke Uchiha, look at her with those cold empty and enraged onyx eyes at her swollen stomach. To say she was scared was an understatement; she was terrified out of her fucking mind

"Sasuke, I can explain." She said quickly before hissing in pain again. "Sasuke- you're hurting me." She said as she tried to rip her hand back.

Something inside Sasuke snapped and he harshly slammed Sakura up against the wall, making her cry out in pain, and one of his hands wrapped itself around her neck, crushing her windpipe and cutting her air supply short.

Sakura began to panic and clawed at his arm and hand, trying to loosen his grip on her neck, she also tried to slow down her heart rate to decrease the need of oxygen, but was unable to, for she needed to retain some sort of calm, and being choked by Sasuke and having a baby moving around inside her did nothing to help.

"Get the fuck off me and my baby." Sakura growled and focused her chakra on her leg and kicked Sasuke off of her, and to the other side to the complex. "Who the hell do you think you are to come into my apartment and attack me like that?" she demanded.

"Is it mine?" he asked.

"What?" she asked.

"Is that brat mine?" he asked.

"No." she said harshly.

His expression hardened. "Who's then?" he demanded.

"Mine, and mine alone." she informed. "Now get out of my house before I kick you out by force or call-"

"Who are you going to call, Itachi?" he demanded.

All the color drained from Sakura's face, her hands instinctively went to protect her child, fearing now more for her life than her very own.

Sasuke watched her closely, inspecting her, evaluating her every move and reaction. "It's his isn't it?" he accused.

Sakura blinked, this was probably the only chance she was ever going to get to pull this out and get herself out -but more likely in rather than out- of this slow building mess she had gotten herself into. "Y-Yes." she breathed out, still frightened, hopefully she could use that to his advantage.

Something flashed across Sasuke's eyes, but before Sakura could identify what it was his expression turned ice cold. "How long?" his voice was cool but she could hear an edge behind it.

"Almost 6 months." she replied quickly.

He squeezed his eyes shut. "Dammit," he yelled and Sakura flinched when he grabbed a vase from a nearby table and sent it across the room towards her, missing her by a hair and then crashed against the wall behind her. "Dammit Sakura, why the fuck didn't you come tell me the second you found out my rat-bastard of a brother knocked you up?" he demanded, the contours of his face darkening, making him look very terrifying.

Sakura remained silent, still unable to speak. Backing up against the wall again she flipped the light switch accidentally, turning the lights off, leaving the apartment to be illuminated by the LED Christmas lights on her small tree in the corner from her. It only made things eerie and all the more frightening.

The silence between them was becoming painfully unbearable. Sasuke was loosing his patience, he had never had much to begin with, but his resolve to calm his ass down and refrain from yelling at the pink haired nuisance, which he figured would get them no where and would only worsen things.

"Why, didn't you tell me?" he asked again, this time in a much more controlled tone of voice. Sakura took in a deep breath so she could attempt to respond in a none terrified voice.

One thing was for sure, she needed to be careful as to her answers. She didn't want to be attacked by him again, and she figured that as long as he wasn't yelling at her, she could attempt to speak to him like a civilized person, and not the terrifying monster she saw across from her.

"I didn't know how." she finally said, just as Sasuke was going to ask again.

"Why?" he asked quickly, his tone still controlled, empty.

"It's not exactly an easy subject. I'm very much aware of the ... view you have on things concerning your brother." she said choosing her words carefully. "I couldn't exactly just walk up to you and say. 'Hey Sasuke, good to see you. Guess what, I ran into your brother while coming back from a mission last week. I tried to kill him, but instead he ended up raping me and now I'm pregnant with his child. Especially not after you were such a dick to me after what happened between us after the club." she snapped in a Mater-of-Fact tone.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed, not liking her attitude toward this. Here he was attempting to be civil, and she was being difficult. "You could have made an attempt to do so, I'm not that difficult to talk to if you make an effort." he informed.

"Several others in the village would say otherwise." she muttered. "Besides," she said, "It's not like you would have cared anyway." she said as she wiped a tear from under her eye with the knuckle of her thumb.

Sasuke visibly flinched before he went numb. The sudden feeling of having a cold bucket of water being dumped on him and the stiff kick to the gut settled in. He felt... disgusted with himself, and with her. And yet, to know her reasons behind not wanting to tell him made him feel, dare he say, Guilty. And he down right hated the feeling.

How could she think such a thing. Sure he was a jerk with her, but he was like that with everyone. He just didn't like others getting close to him. It made them targets in his enemies eyes, and lets face it Sasuke had plenty of those, and he didn't want the blood of one of his friends to stain his hands.

But to think that he would out right not give a shit about something as important as this? The woman was having his brother's baby, and if what he had heard was correct, it was putting her life in danger. The bastard might even be in the village with the sole purpose of killing the child as soon as it was born, or worse.

Whether he likes it or not, the child Sakura is carrying is part of him too. Perhaps not his child, but it carried his blood. It would grow to be his, Sakura had called it a she, niece. And with that child he would be closer to restoring his clan, and have the closest thing to a family he had had in years.

"Who else knows?" he asked, his voice could barely pass as controlled.

Sakura remained silent for a moment as she bit her lip nervously, then after taking a deep breath she counted off the people who knew about her pregnancy.

He dragged his hand down his face frustratedly. "Seriously? Why was I the last to know!" He was angry again. Angry that she kept her situation from him. Angry that she didn't let him help her.

"You know why." she said as she peered through the rest of the silent and now darkened house. "What now?" she asked, still not meeting his gaze. "What happens to me now that you know that I'm pregnant?" she asked. It had been a question that had haunted her since the first day she had found out. And Now that he knew, while he didn't know the truth, it was being shouted out at her by her inner.

"I don't know." he said turning away from her and heading to her door to leave.

Sakura's heart lurched, a shiver ran down her body without any real reason. She felt cold to the bone, an unknown force gripping tightly at her heart. Her throat burned with an ache to cry her frustrations aloud. She closed her eyes tightly when she felt the tears burning up her silky green eyes in an attempt to keep them from spilling down her face.

But it was of no use...

A broken, choked sob escaped her burning throat and Sakura buried her face in her hands when she heard the door click shut, signalling that Sasuke had left. Just as he had all those months ago.

But Sasuke hadn't left, not this time. He was about to if he hand't heard her start to cry. Normally he wouldn't have given another shit, but something stopped him, pinning him to the spot and with gritted teeth he closed the door shut and ever so slowly turned his body towards her and took in the image of a broken Sakura burring her face in her hands and crying.

It wasn't an easy sight, after all he had grown used to seeing a head stubborn Sakura, one that didn't cry, one that took things 'like a champ'. A Sakura who had taken to becoming stronger, deliberately detached herself from others in order to build up a strong mask, a mask that protected her from silly emotions like these.

He wasn't aware as to when he had began moving again as he slowly walked over to her, one of his hands reaching out for her. He placed a gentle hand on her shoulder and spun her so they stood face to face. The same hand lifted to her face to wipe away the saltwater streaking down her cheek, which took her by surprise. It was frightening, but in a weird way it was comforting; he wouldn't let her guard down in front of just anybody, and she knew it.

He hesitated for a moment, and before Sakura could speak up and question his motives he leaned her into him and pressed his lips to her forehead. He didn't say anything, all he did was wrap his arms protectively around her.

They stood together in the darkness, the only light coming from her Christmas tree in the corner and from the twilight moon light peeking through her window. She could hear the ka-thump of his heart and moved with the rise and fall of his chest. The warmth of his body radiated off on her body in a comforting way, and that brought a new wave of tears.

"Sasuke?" she asked a little breathlessly.

"Hn."

"I'm sorry you had to find out this way..." she whispered.

His eyes narrowed. "We'll discus things later, when we're calmer about things." he grunted pulling away from her, the small moment, or what ever it was, they shared gone now.

He pulled way from her with a little too much force and turned to leave the dark apartment.

"No, Sasuke, we're talking about this right now or you can kiss what ever hopes of having a family back, having your clan restored, gone." she said tersely, her voice still hoarse from holding back tears, but strong and determined none the less.

His eyes at her. "Is that a Threat?" he asked with a dangerous look on his face.

"No." Sakura spoke. "It's a promise."
