"How was the trip over?" Asked Ino as the girls handed their coats to a man at the front of the restaurant.
"Long, cold, and wet; it took me longer to get here because of weather complications. How've you girls been doing with your boys? Shikamaru's been lazy like always." The girls sat down and looked over their menus. Tenten was the first to answer Temari, "Neji's been busy with Hiashi and I've been on some B ranked missions. We hardly ever spend time together, that's why I'm looking so forward for the Christmas party."
"I've started to hang out with Kiba lately and he's taken me on a few dates." Ino chimed shyly.
"Sasuke's become more active with me lately." Sakura turned red from all of the stares she was receiving. Temari drank some water and said, "Geeze, are you trying to rebuild the clan already?"
"Neji and I hardly ever get that far."
"We're not the only ones, right Hinata?" Sakura looked over at Hinata who was hiding behind her menu. All the girls waited quietly until the Hinata finally answered, "Well, N-Naruto-kun are very interested in e-each other and h-he likes to explore things." Temari flew back anime style in her chair, Tenten and Ino's mouths hit the floor while Sakura stared at her menu. As Temari stood up, she spoke words of wisdom and caring, "I congratulate you, but since he likes to explore you so much, I would make sure to be on pregnancy pills and wear protection. sighs Shikamaru and I have only had sex twice, I feel shy compared to Hinata." The girls encouraged Temari by saying it wasn't her fault; she lived three days away and Shikamaru wasn't active. This, however, wasn't the only surprising news, at the same time in a restaurant seven blocks away, Tsunade was just recovering from some sudden and surprising news.
"You're pregnant?!"
"Shh, Tsunade not so loud!" Shizune hissed while Iruka rubbed his neck.
"It wasn't exactly planned, so we don't want people to know." Iruka said, slightly embarrassed by their accident.
"I wouldn't have expected you two to be the first, maybe Naruto and Hinata or Sasuke and Sakura, but this is a surprise." Jiraiya put his arm around a shocked Tsunade who said, "I would've thought that you, of all people would have used protection."
"I kinda messed up my period, I accidentally messed up the dates." Shizune blushed while Tsunade took off her scarf. She was proud of her assistant to have found a good man and inside, Tsunade was rejoicing that Shizune was pregnant. Jiraiya squeezed Tsunade 's hand and asked, "When's the baby due?"
"The end of August."
"If you want, I can be your doctor through the pregnancy and after too. If you don't want me though, I'll still be with you all the way."
"Of course I want you! I was just going to ask you if you'd deliver my baby."
"We're going to get married in May to make it official and in October, we'll renew our vows and make it a bigger wedding with friends." Iruka added.
"Tsunade, I'd like to ask you to be in my wedding, first to give me away since you've been so kind to me after my uncle died, and I would like you to be my maid of honor." Shizune looked nervously at her lap as she wrinkled a napkin. Tsunade jumped up crying and hugged her, "Of course I'll be in your wedding, it would be my honor." Both women were now crying and holding each other as Iruka scooted next to Jiraiya so that Tsunade could sit beside his fiancée. Jiraiya whispered softly to Iruka, "Heads up, for the next nine months you're going to have to deal with an emotionally unstable, pregnant fiancée. Word of the wise: do everything you're told and you'll survive." Iruka nervously looked at Shizune as Jiraiya chuckled and finished off his whiskey.
"Hime, it's time for us to get going. The girls will be at my house soon to pick up their outfits." Tsunade got up and said, "Alright, but Shizune, you better call me tonight to talk." The couple was almost out the door when Shizune yelled, "Unless your busy trying to start your own family!" Jiraiya pushed Tsunade out the door so that the only thing she could do is show Shizune the bird (AKA the middle finger). Shortly after they arrived at Jiraiya's home, Hinata arrived with her friends.
"Glad you could make it." Jiraiya cheerfully greeted them and Temari leaned over to Ino, "Tell me again why I ordered one of these perverted outfits?"
"You wanted to surprise Shikamaru and Sakura partially forced us as well."
"Follow me." Jiraiya led them down a long hall and at the end, opened a door to a huge room full of clothing and costumes. All the women were in shock, Tsunade was more shocked by how many costumes he owned. Jiraiya explained, "After the movies, TV series, and magazine shoots are over, they leave the clothes with me. Sometimes I make different clothes that are only used once, so they gave me my own professional tailor. I practically have every size, style, and color under the sun. Go ahead and pick your outfits and since you're friends, I'll give you a discount." They quickly began looking through the racks of clothing, trying to find the outfit they'd ordered. Tsunade stood beside Jiraiya to watch; she'd already gotten her outfit for free. Hinata was the first to find hers, followed by Tenten, Sakura, and Ino who exchanged styles. At last, Temari found her outfit and they tired them on. The older couple applauded and helped make adjustments to the articles of clothing. After, when Jiraiya was wrapping up the clothing and collecting money, he asked, "Are any of you going to be needing a room?"
"I'm convincing Shikamaru to stay with me; I plan on partying hard since my brothers aren't here to stop me." Temari buttoned up her long winter coat. Tenten handed a check to him saying, "I still don't know if Neji's going to even come."
"Naruto-kun is planning to get Sasuke drunk so I know he'll get drunk in the process. I don't want to chase him all over Konoha in the winter." Hinata smiled at a picture of Naruto in her pocket.
"Guess that means I need a room then. It would be so improper for an Uchiha to be walking around Konoha drunk." Sakura giggled as Tenten imitated a drunk Sasuke trying to act proper. The girls thanked Jiraiya again and then headed out through the dumping snow to their homes.
Sorry it took me so long to update. I hope you liked the surprise about Shizune that I threw in, tell me what you think.
