Sorry I'm updating so late! I've been busy and everything. But I haven't forgot about all of my fans. So, here is another chapter. Sorry it's so short! Enjoy! (By the way, I'm going to start adding more characters into the chapters than just the Uchiha's. In the next chapter I think.)


-Chapter Twelve-

Hinata and Sakura were sitting in a small examination room, both staring at each other. Finally, Sakura smiled and giggled a bit. She knew what Hinata was going to have but hadn't told the woman yet. Anxiously, Hinata waited to find out.

"You're going to have-" Sakura started. "A girl!"

Hinata grinned from ear to ear then placed a hand on her stomach. "I can finally give you a name, little one. We'll have to talk with daddy and think of a name! How does that sound?" The baby kicked her stomach with made Hinata's grin widen even more. The two women had forgotten all about Itachi, which they had waiting in the small waiting room down the hallway.

Finally remembering, Sakura opened the door and retrieved Itachi, leading him into the room then shutting the door afterwards.

"It's going to be a girl," Hinata told him softly. Itachi hugged her the best her could with her round stomach and then bent down to rub her stomach.

"How is my girl today?" he cooed. Sakura had the 'what-a-freak' expression plastered on her face. Hinata was smiling down at her husband as he talked to their baby.

"Okay," Sakura mumbled. "I have other patients waiting to get check-ups, so could you two take this happy moment out into the hallway or something?" Itachi placed a hand on the middle of his wife's back and led her out into the hallway where they stopped and turned to face each other. A stranger brushed past the two and entered the room. They both heard Sakura greet the person politely before shutting the door.

The Uchiha male leaned over and caught Hinata's lips with his. After drawing away slightly, he pressed his forehead against hers. Neither of their headbands were in the way since they both had them tied loosely around their necks.

"I love you," he whispered, smiling weakly. "I also love the baby very much."

"I love you, too." They wore identical smiles as they just stood there in the middle of the hallway. It was only when they heard Mikoto call their names that they turned to look away from each other.

"So?" their mother asked anxiously, skidding to a stop in front of them. "What is it?" Hinata rubbed her stomach a bit before replying, "It's going to be a girl." Mikoto tackled her son in a hug, then gently hugged her daughter-in-law. Secretly, Mikoto had wanted it to be a girl all along.


Sakura stepped into her house and sighed. It had been a long and frustrating day at work, and the thought of having to cook dinner for two was annoying her. She felt weak and irritated. The lights suddenly went out in the living room. A soft glow of light from the kitchen drew her to the room.

Two lit candles sat in the middle of the dinner table. The table was set, freshly made food awaiting for someone to eat it. Strong arms wrapped around Sakura from behind. Sasuke nuzzled her neck as a smile tugged at the corners of her lips.

"I hope you're hungry," he whispered in her ear. One of his hands was caressing her stomach lightly.

"Very hungry," Sakura murmured, a giggle escaping her mouth. Sasuke led her over to the table and pulled her chair out for her. Once both of them were sitting, Sasuke dished their food out. "It smells so good, Sasuke. I'm sure it will taste just as wonderful as it smells." When she took a bite of the food he made, a grin formed on her face. Once she had swallowed, she said, "Wonderful."

They ate in a silence for a while, content smiles plastered on their faces. "So, how have you been feeling lately?" Sasuke asked, breaking the silence.

"Better than usual. My morning sickness is starting to go away since my body is getting used to me being pregnant." Sasuke reached a hand across the table and rested it on Sakura's hand which hand been placed on the table.

"Sakura," he started. "I haven't told you yet, but I'm very happy that we're going to have a child. I've wanted one for a while now. I can't believe I'm finally going to be a father." Sakura's green orbs scanned his face which had happiness etched in it's handsome features.

"I didn't know, Sasuke, you wouldn't talk about it with me. If you would have told me that you wanted a baby then we could have had one sooner." Removing his hands from on top of Sakura's, Sasuke scratched the back of his head, a blush appearing on his face. She knew he was shy talking about this kind of thing, but it wasn't that hard to talk about it, was it?

"Just the thought-" Sasuke started, trying to find the right words. "The subject of having a baby makes me uncomfortable. You know, just the whole bed and two people and everything makes me uncomfortable talking about it. If I had told you that I wanted to have a baby, that would have been too close to the other subject." Sakura couldn't believe it, but her husband was rambling. He never rambled. "I couldn't tell you about it because I didn't know if you wanted one too. Also, if I even tried to tell you, I wouldn't be able to get the words to come out of my mouth."

The pink-haired woman nodded in understanding. She could tell he was embarrassed talking about it right now, so she dropped the subject to make him comfortable. "Thank you for dinner." Tilting her head to the side, Sakura smiled cutely at her husband.
